"Daddy !"your 9 year old daughter cheered happily when she saw her daddy walking down towards her as he immediately took her in his arms . "Princess ! I missed you ! So how did the recital went ?"he asked . "It was really fun daddy , and we won second place ! Isn't it amazing ?"she said , her green eyes shining . 

"Okay honey , now why don't you go play with Jesse . Daddy has something to say to mommy ."he said and she went off .

You cleared your throat as you averted his stare , your cheeks heating up .

"So ... how are you , Y/N ?" he asked . "I've been good ."you lied .

Yes , you guys were married . Note that . WERE . Then a few months later , you guys got a divorce because things were not working out at all . 

Until your daughter came .

She was the glue that was starting to mend the broken pieces of your marriage , and for some times , you wished he didn't file that divorce . But being you , you were a bit hot headed and you're not the type to back down in a fight . So maybe it was your fault that he didn't want you anymore .

And he looked really okay .

You guessed he did move on , considering you saw some photos of him online with a girl .

"So ... I'll pick her up at 9 ."you didn't know what else to say . He gloomily nodded , wanting to say something but didn't say another word .

-few hours later-

"Daddy ?" Y/D/N looked up at him , her mouth full of ice-cream . "Yeah ?"he said . "Why did mom and you live in different houses ?"she asked , making him almost choke on his ice-cream . "Well ...." "I really miss you . You used to color the walls with me and mommy was happy too . Mommy sometimes cry and I can't even make her smile , but I know daddy can ."she truthfully spoke . "Mommy has been crying ?"he replied . "Yeah . She cries looking at your picture saying it's all her fault and stuff . Did mommy do anything until you had to move out ?"she asked .

He felt his heart crumbling down at the news . So you were not okay at all . He hugged her close to his chest . "No . It was all Daddy's fault . Daddy was the one who made her cry ."he muttered . He missed everything about you , too . He missed your vanilla scent , he missed your long , wavy hair , he missed your shining green orbs , just everything .

"Then why didn't you say sorry ? I'm sure Mommy would forgive you ."she mumbled , snapping him out of his trance .

"Are you sure ?"he smiled a little .

"Yeah ! She always talked about Daddy , of how a great singer you are and how cute daddy looked whenever daddy was pouting or whenever daddy was asleep ..."she trailed off . "And the kingdom we have ... We need the King ."she continued .

He looked at her . "The kingdom needs both , Daddy . You said so yourself ."

"I think you can help me get the Queen back , Y/D/N . Whatcha think ?"he tilted his head at her .

"Sure !"

You took a deep breath as your car entered his driveway . You looked at your watch . 8.55 p.m. You opened your car and the cold air greeted you , as you immediately hugged yourself .

"Brad ?"you called out . As much as it hurts just by calling his name , you had to force yourself to go out from the cave that you were in . You had to move on .

You knocked on the door . "Brad ? Y/D/N ?"you said . There was no reply . You twisted the doorknob , a bit surprised when you found it unlocked and opened the door to see pitch black .

"Brad ? Y/D/N ?"you called out again .

"SURPRISE !"voices made you jump in shock as the lights went on , and you turned around .

"Wh--what ?"

"Uh ... surprise , Y/N ."Brad said in a rather awkward tone , holding a rose bouquet . You looked around , and your eyes immediately zoomed into a banner that had pink words printed on it : "Y/N , PLEASE ACCEPT ME BACK ."

"Brad ?"you asked . "Uh ... I ..... Well ... Y/D/N had a plan , of uh ..." "Getting the Queen back !"she jumped in front of you , holding up your wedding ring . James , Tristan and Connor were all dressed up in a tux , and you had to admit , it was really cute .

"Y/N , I know I said those harsh things on you , I kicked you out of my life , I didn't appreciate you--but I can promise you on one thing , I still love you . Very much ."he said . "And I know , maybe you don't want me back , but ... do you still remember ? We had a kingdom , a very happy kingdom . But after you left ... The kingdom started to fall , the King didn't know what to do .... and he needs his wise Queen back in his arms ."he confessed . A tear escaped your eye . You only needed to hear him apologize , and he was already doing that .

"So .. what would the Queen say ?"he continued , kneeling down .

"The Queen ...."you breathed . "The Queen says she would come back ."
