Fleur’s POV

Warning bullying is involved

“Hey baby, time to get up and go to school.” I said. “Mom, I don’t want to go.” Tyler said covering his face with his blankets. I sighed and sat down on his bed. “Why not?” I asked. “I don’t want to talk about it.” He said. “Honey, your father pays a lot of money for you to go to this school. I need a valid reason for you not to go to school.” I said. He climbed out from under the covers and tears were streaming down his face. “I get bullied all the time. The teachers don’t even help plus dad never sees me a lot. He is always with Leila. I love Leila because she is my sister but want to see dad.” He said. I wrapped my arms around him and held him close. “You know he loves you. I am sorry that he hasn’t been around much lately but it is because the bands are busy. I promise we will go see him today but can you just go to school today since it is Friday. I promise that I will enroll you in a new school next week.” I said. “Can we go see dad after I get home?” he asked. “Of course we can. Just come straight home after school okay.” I said. “Yes mom.” He said. I kissed his head and left him to get ready while I made him breakfast. He came downstairs in his uniform and I handed him his breakfast. “Thanks, mom.” He said. “You’re welcome. Do you want to go to public school or another private school?” I asked. “Public is fine.” He said. I handed him his lunch and we got into the car. I pulled up to the school and looked at him. “I will see you at home after school. I love you. Please, stay safe.” I said. “I love you too and I will try.” He said. I watched him walk into school. I headed to the public school and enrolled him to start for Monday. I headed back home and cleaned it up waiting for Tyler to get home. I looked at the clock and saw that it has been two hours since school ended. I am worried now that Tyler isn’t home. I drove over to Craig’s. I ran inside and he was watching a movie with Leila. “Please, tell me Tyler is here.” I said. “No, why?” he asked. “He hasn’t come home yet and he has been out of school for two hours and he promised to be home after school.” I said. He looked at me worried and started calling all the guys to find him. I know Craig and I had Tyler young and it was a mistake but I love Craig. He loves Tyler so much and seeing him caring about Tyler now makes me love him even more. My phone started going off. I answered it and tears started streaming down my face. Craig looked over at me and I dropped to my knees. Craig ran over and wrapped his arms around me. “We need to get to the hospital now.” I said. He picked me up and placed me in the car because I would not be able to move. Leila climbed into the back and buckled herself in. We got to the hospital. “Tyler Mabbitt.” I said. A nurse led me to the ICU. “He is in critical condition. He was found in his school bathroom soaking wet with blood coming from his mouth and his arms were tied behind his back.” The nurse said. I started sobbing as Craig held me. “I shouldn’t have told him to go to school. This is all my fault.” I said. Craig rubbed my back and kissed my head. They let us into the room. “Tyler, wake up.” Leila said pulling on his hand. “Honey, your brother is sleeping.” I said holding her on my hip. She nodded and I kissed her head. “Fleur, I know this really isn’t the time and place but I really want you and Tyler to move in with us. I love you and Leila loves you so what do you say?” he asked. “I would really like that and I know Tyler would too.” I said. I took a seat next to Tyler and held Leila on my lap. I held Tyler’s hand and cried. “Please, don’t cry mom.” Leila said. I smiled and kissed her head. Tyler made a groaning noise. “Baby, we’re here. I am so sorry. I shouldn’t have let you gone to school. I am so glad you are okay.” I said. “Mom.” He croaked out. I kissed his head. “Hey buddy.” Craig said. “Dad.” Tyler said smiling. Craig kissed his head. “I am so glad you are okay buddy.” He said. Tyler smiled. “Brother.” Leila said hugging him. Tyler hugged her back. “When can I go home?” he choked out. “I will go find out buddy and we can take you home.” Craig said. Tyler smiled and Craig went off to find his doctor. “Can Tyler have the room next to mine?” Leila asked. “Sure thing sweetie.” I said. “Why is she asking that?” Tyler asked. “Well we are moving in with your father. We want to be a real family.” I said. Tyler smiled then his jaw dropped as he watched a new patient roll into the ICU. “Tyler, what’s wrong?” I asked. “That is who beat me up.” He said. I looked over at the teenage boy and saw how bloody and bruised he was. I was shocked. Craig came in with a nurse. The nurse and she started getting him ready to head home. I helped Tyler out of bed and into Craig’s car. “Your dad and uncles are going to back to our house to pack up our things and we are gonna stay at home with your sister.” I said. Tyler nodded. I helped him into the house and sat him on the couch. “Stay here and I will get you a blanket and some dinner.” I said. “I’m gonna help.” Leila said following me. Leila went and got him a blanket. She ran over and covered him up. He pulled her up onto the couch and wrapped his arms around her. I began making grilled cheese and tomato soup. I walked into the living room fast asleep. The boys came crashing in and I stopped them. I pushed them to the living room and they all smiled. I took a picture of them and Craig wrapped his arms around me. “I love you.” He said. “I love you too.” I said. He kissed me and the guys decided to leave. “You know when we dated a while back I was going to proposed to you but then the drama with Gabby caused problems. I really do love you Fleur. So will you marry me so we will actually be a big happy family?” he asked. I nodded and kissed him. “I love you guys.” Tyler said looking at us. I smiled and helped him up. I sat him at the table with his dinner. “Thanks mom.” He said. Craig carried in Leila and she sat down right next to Tyler. I smiled and handed Craig a sandwich and some soup too. “I love you.” He said kissing me. “I know.” I said. We all sat down to dinner laughing and acting like one big happy family. I know both Tyler and I have been dying for this moment for a long time.

Sorry that I made this a bit serious but ya.
