Today, I woke up hungover as fuck. I couldn't stand this headache I had either. After taking some Advil, it finally started to go away.

That's when my phone started to vibrate. I check the caller ID. It was mum.

"Hmm?" I hum into the phone.

"Daddy," a voice cries.

"Dani? What's wrong babe?" I yawn over the phone.

"I want you," she sobs.

"Where's grandma?"

"Sitting with me on the couch," she whimpers.

"Hand the phone to her please," I sigh.

There's a small pause.

"Hello?" I hear mum say.

"Hey mum. What's wrong with Dani?" I ask.

"She just misses you, Michael. She's not used to being away from you," she sighs.

"Well, she's going to have to get used to it. I can't keep taking her on tour with me. She has school now."

"Michael, this is why I told you to leave her with me while you went on tour. I knew this would happen, Michael. Now listen to her. She's sad after just one night."

"Anyways, what do you want me to do about it now?"

"Well, for right now, just meet us at my house. Then, we'll head off to her ballet recital. You can spend every ounce of your day with her," she explains. "You have a week Michael. A week."

I sigh. "Okay. I'll see you in a bit. I need to get ready."

"Bye Michael."

"Bye mum."

I hear Dani whine something to mum. She starts talking in the phone.

"Bye daddy," she whimpers.

"Bye babe. I'll see you in a little bit, okay. Daddy's gotta get ready."

"Okay."

"I love you, Dani."

"Love you too, daddy."

The ballet performance was long and tiring. I was so glad it was finally over. Don't get me wrong, I love Dani and I love the fact she's into ballet. It's just, I'm not exactly a big fan of ballet myself.

I had a little bouquet of flowers in my hand for Dani. Once I spot her, I walk over to her.

"Daddy!" she shouts as she sees me.

"Hey, Dani! You did a great job babe," I tell her with excitement in my voice.

I hand her the bouquet of flowers. I pick her up and rest her on my hips.

"Daddy, can we go to the park to play with Sammy?" she asks.

"Who's Sammy?"

"My friend. She's in ballet. Wanna' meet her?"

"Sure," I smile.

I set her down before she grabs my hand and drags me.

"Daddy, will you hold my flowers?" she asks.

"Sure princess."

I take the flowers from her as we walk. Dani gasps and lets go of my hand. She then runs to a little girl in a mint green tutu.

"Sammy, this is my daddy," she explains to the little girl.

A woman and man come up to the little girl.

"Mummy, daddy!" she squeals hugging the two.

"Hey Sammy! Great job!" the woman praises the little girl.

"Who's this Sam?" the man asks her, looking at us.

"This is Dani and her daddy," she explains to them.

"Hi. I'm Greg," the man explains.

He offers his hand, so I shake it.

"Michael," I inform.

A girl, about fourteen, walks up to us.

"Hey dad-" she pauses and starts squealing when she sees me. "Omg, you're Michael Clifford from 5SOS! Oh my god I love you so much!"

"Tracey," her mother scolds," that's no way to act!"

"But mum, this is Michael freaking Clifford!" Tracey turns to Dani and I again. "Omg, this must be Dani! Hi Dani!"

Dani looks up at me with a worried expression. That's when my phone starts ringing.

I take it out of my pocket. The caller ID says Ashton.

"Dani, we need to go. Uncle Ashton's calling," I sigh.

"Daddy, I wanna play with Sammy at the park! Can I please go?" she begs.

"Hold on Dani. Let me take Uncle Ash's call," I demand.

She nods an starts talking to Sammy.

I press the accept call button just before it stops ringing.

"What?" I snap.

I start walking out of the dance academy.

"Mate, we need you at the studio ASAP," Ashton informs.

"I can't go to the studio today Ashton. I promised Dani I would do something with her today."

"Reality check Michael. You have work that needs to be done. Plus, John needs to talk to us. Hang out with her tomorrow."

"I can't hang out with her tomorrow, because I have to work at the fucking studio, and she has school! And guess what, I was going to hang out with her for the entire week because I know I won't see her for another month or two after this week! Have you forgotten about tour? I have a week left before I have to leave her! I've never put her through this, Ashton! She's going to be devastated! That's why I wanted to do stuff with her!" I yell at him.

"Mate, calm down. Just meet us here pronto."

"Fuck you guys," I sigh. "I'll be there in an hour or so. I have to take Dani home."

"Okay mate. Just hurry."

I quickly hang up as tears spring to my eyes.

A week.

I walk back into the building to find Dani still talking with Sammy.

"Dani, we need to go okay? I have to go back to work. You're going to stay with grandma," I inform.

I hold back the tears as I look down at her.

"But daddy, you promised me you would go to the park!" she whines.

I crouch to her height.

"I know Dani. I'm trying to be with you as much as possible. Daddy has a lot of work though. I promise that I'll spend the whole day with you tomorrow," I tell her with tears forming in my eyes once again.

"D-do you promise, daddy?"

"I promise Dani. I absolutely promise that I will spend my whole day with you."

She nods giving me a hug.

"I promise," I whisper, mainly to myself.

Michael, quit making promises you can't keep. Geez.
