*** 4 YEARS LATER ***

Nathan's P.O.V~

"Come on Alexis, you're gonna be late for your first day of school, you can play with your toys when you get home!" I shouted up the stairs into Alexis' room.

"I'm coming Daddy!" She yelled back, and seconds later she was standing at the bottom of the stairs. She looked so smart and adorable in her school uniform. 

"Look at you! Such a big girl now, going to school, are you excited?" I asked as I knelt down to be level with her.

"Yes!" She grinned as she threw her arms up causing me to laugh.

As Alexis got older, she looked more and more like Amelia. She had inherited my eye colour and nose but aside from that, everything else about her screamed 'Amelia!'. She even had the same chocolate brown, curly hair which I'd managed to style into pigtails and I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty proud.

I couldn't help but feel proud of Alexis and I knew that if Amelia was still here, she's be crying right now at Alexis because of how amazing she is and also because she's starting full time school which would mean that neither of us would see her all day, everyday anymore.

"Go and fetch your shoes and once you've got them on we can go." I smiled.

"Okay." She replied as she walked to the shoe rack to fetch them before sitting back on the bottom step of the stairs so I could put them on for her.

"Okay," I said as I stood up, "are you ready Princess?" 

"Yes! Last one to the car is a rotten egg!" She laughed as she opened the front door to race me to the car. It was good thing we had a gate all the way around the edge of the garden and I parked the car on the drive in front of the house because Alexis was pretty clumsy which I say she got from spending too much time with Uncle Jay. Just saying.

"I'm gonna beat you!" I said as I ran out after her, closing the door behind me.

"No you're not!" She laughed as she continued running.

"See! I win! You're a rotten egg!" She said as she reached the car, sticking her tongue out at me.

"Did you just stick your tongue out at me?" I asked.

"No." She said, a small smile creeping onto her face.

"You remember what happens when you do that, don't you?" I said, as I slowly walked closer to her.

"No!" She said running to the other side of the car, "You'll have to catch me first!" She continued to laugh.

"I'm gonna tickle you for that!" I said as I chased her around the car. I stopped running and she didn't realise and as she ran around the corner she ran into me and gasped.

"No!" She screamed as she laughed.

"I've got you now!" I said as reached down to her.

"Please don't tickle me!" She begged through her laughter.

"It's too late now, you shouldn't have stuck your tongue our at me!" I chuckled as I tickled her sides. I couldn't help but smile as she did her adorable laugh as I continued the tickle attack.

"Daddy! Please!" She manged to shout out between her breaths as she continued to laugh.

"I'll stop when you say sorry." I reasoned, as the tickle attack went on.

"I'm sorry Daddy!" She said as she laughed.

"I don't think you mean it." I said as I continued.
