"Hey, I'm just going to pick up Aveline from mum's okay?" Troy yelled to his wife.

"Yeah that's fine, I might take Milo to the beach so I might not be here when you get back" she replied, while walking down the stairs with her baby boy bouncing on her hip.

"'Kay. Bye-Bye Milo" Troy said, while giving his son a slobbery kiss.

As he left their house, Gabbie started to pack up the items she will need for their trip. She placed Milo in his pram and started to walk their usual route to the secluded patch of beach. She loved her life, well, used to. Ever since having Milo, which was only 8 weeks ago, she kept feeling that Troy loved their kids more then her. Of course she didn't want to compete with her children and loved the relationship they had with their father. But she just felt that she wasn't as pretty or youthful as she was when they first started dating.

Arriving at the beach, she automatically directed the pram towards the area that Troy and Gabbie called their own. This area made them feel so calm, so clear. They hadn't been here together for a while now.

This was the place they first said they loved each other….

Lying out on some rugs, a 17 year old Troy and 16 year old Gabbie were watching the amazing sunset. Well, Gabbie was watching the sunset, she adored it, all the different colours and actually seeing the time change from day to night fascinated her. Troy on the other hand didn't really understand why it was so amazing, so was just playing with Gabbie's hair and watching her intently. Of course he couldn't deny the sunset was pretty but he had seen it so many times before and he was certain that his Gabbie was much prettier.

Gabbie sighed, when the sun had officially gone and turned to Troy lying next to her.

"What'cha thinking about?" she asked.

He hesitated,

"That every time you look at me, I get butterflies" He replied. He knew it sounded cheesy but it was actually what he was thinking about. At the very point she turned to him, he felt the rush in his stomach accelerate.

He was staring at her and she was staring back, equally as strong. It became pretty intense. He leaned in and captured her lips in his; she sighed against his lips and hauled herself up so she was lying on top of him. She pulled back as they both took a breath. He smoothed her hair back so he could see her face fully and looked into her eyes.

They stayed like this for some time, before Troy opened his mouth to speak.

"I Love you" he whispered.

She stared at him. She was shocked, at first, but it soon turned into a different emotion as she felt her stomach become warm and fuzzy. She leaned down and balanced her lips on his. Not kissing, just touching.

"I love you too" she whispered.

He rolled them over so he was top and leaned down to her face and allowed their mouths to meet. He slid his tongue into her mouth and carried on worshipping her for sometime as he felt on top of the world. They both did…..

She remembered that day so clearly. It was amazing; it was definitely on her list of favourite days and memories. Of course giving birth to her beautiful children were very high on that list as well.

She hadn't actually sat down on the sand, just standing with Milo asleep in his pram. She decided that she didn't want to stay there, so she started to wander down the beach, discovering new areas.

She had walked for another 10 minutes before sitting on an empty section of sand. She took Milo out of his pram and watched him sleep in her arms. All she ever thought about now-a-days was the way Troy acted around her and this moment was no different.

After analysing Troy's actions and words today, she had decided that he didn't love her anymore. He hadn't given her a kiss this morning, just went straight to check on Aveline and Milo. But he hadn't actually kissed her that often and hadn't given her a good morning kiss since about a week after Milo was born. Troy also hadn't said goodbye or kissed her when she left for the beach, just Milo.

She hugged her little son closer to her chest and kissed the top of his head.

Ring Ring, Ring Ring

"Oh Shoot" Gabbie mumbled.

She rummaged around in her pocket trying to stop the noise that would probably wake Milo and start him off crying.

Luckily she found her phone and answered, it was Taylor. Her best friend ever since high school…

"Hey" Gabbie answered

"Hey, you okay" asked Taylor

"I'm alright I suppose, how are you?" She replied.

Taylor noticed the dejected tone in Gabbie's voice.

"Oh, I'm alright thanks. How are Milo and the rest of the family doing?"

"Everyone's fine. Milo's asleep at the moment. We're just at the beach at the moment. Troy is probably home by now with Aveline."

"Is everything alright between you and Troy?"

Taylor had twins, Isaac and Violet, with Chad, her childhood sweetheart, 2 years ago and is very aware of the emotions after giving birth She had researched post-natal depression a lot so was always quizzing her friends about their life after birth. It kind of fascinated her, but she was training to be a nurse so that sort of stuff did.

At the mention if Troy's name, Gabbie started to tear up. Realising that Tory didn't love her anymore was one of the hardest things she would ever have to do, she was sure of it.

"He doesn't love me anymore" She whispered to her best friend.
