All Grown Up

Logan's POV

I knocked on Peyton's door. "If it's mom or dad, I'm not hungry." I twisted the knob but it was locked. She got up. "I said I-" She opened the door.

"Get dressed." She nodded, closing the door. I went back downstairs and helped my mom dress Aubrey.

"Is she coming?" I nodded. Aubrey smiled up at me.

"When you get older I'll be handling any fuckboys for you too."

"Logan!" My mom hit my arm and I chuckled. Aubrey laughed uncontrollably.

"What's wrong with her?" I looked up at my dad and stood with my baby sister.

"She's laughing at me. Mom hit my arm because I said fuckboy." My dad hit my arm too. "Enough abuse! Besides if you knew how I used it, you'd agree. I said when Aubrey get's older, I'll be handling the fuckboys."

"Oh that's okay. I'll be doing that too." Dad chuckled, kissing Aubrey's cheek.

"Great now her first word is going to be a swear word." Mom huffed, taking her from my arms which really upset Aubrey. I took her back and she stopped crying. "Logan. You and Peyton have seriously spoiled my baby."

"She's our sister!" Peyton came down the steps with her headphones on and walked out the door. "Was I that bad about Taylor?" My parents shrugged. I put Aubrey in her carseat and picked it up. We walked out and got in the car.

Peyton was looking out the window but I'd noticed a tear slide down her cheek. I wiped it away and she looked at me. "Hi." She gave me a small smile and looked at mom.

"Hey. How are you feeling?" She shrugged. "It'll be okay." Peyton just sniffled and wiped another tear off her face. Dad pulled off, Peyton putting her headphones back on.

Peyton's POV

I closed my eyes, listening to Kissin' On My Tattoos by August Alsina. I had been listening to sad songs all night and cried myself to sleep. It was something about the lyrics that made me feel better than an upbeat song. My music lowered, my phone buzzing in my lap. I looked to see a call from Greyson. I rejected it, sighing and looking out the window.

"Come on princess." I was picked up and smelled my dad's cologne. I awoke and looked up to see my grandparents' house.

"What are we doing here?" I groaned softly and nuzzled my face in his neck.

"I figured you'd want a weekend away from the memories." I smiled. I fell asleep again and was laid on a bed.

Liam's POV

I sat beside Paige, taking my baby girl from her arms. She smiled at me. "S-s-sis-sissy?" I smiled at Paige.

"What was that sweetheart?" Paige smiled.

"Sissy! Sissy!" I chuckled and Aubrey laughed, bouncing in my lap. "Sissy!" I kissed her cheek.

"She's so spoiled." I looked at my mom, Aubrey's tiny hand on my finger. "Paige good luck getting her to say mom." We heard something upstairs and got up. I gave our youngest daughter to my parents, following Paige. We ran in my room, Peyton thrashing around and crying in her sleep.

"Peyton!" I sat beside her and she jolted awake.

"It hurts." She climbed in my lap and cried. "Why?" She cried into my shoulder.

"It's okay." I wrapped my arms around her. I kissed her head softly. "What happened?"

"I had a nightmare." She sniffled.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Paige sat beside me. Peyton sat up shaking her head.

"No thank you. I'm fine." She wiped her eyes. "Thanks though. I love you." I smiled, kissing her forehead.

"We love you too baby girl." I wiped her tears. She smiled, laying her head on my shoulder. "Aubrey said her first word."

"I missed it?!" She sat up, looking at us. Paige nodded. "What did she say?"

"I think you should hear for yourself." She got up, running downstairs. We followed.

"Sissy!" Aubrey crawled over to Peyton. She smiled, picking up the infant. "Sissy!" Peyton kissed Aubrey's cheek, sitting beside Logan.

"Pay up big brother."

"I'm a minute older!" He grumbled pulling his wallet from his pocket.

"So now it doesn't matter?" Logan put a 100 in her hand. "I thought £100 was a bit much for this bet but I see the pro side. How does it feel to lose?" She waved the bill in his face and smiled at Aubrey.

"Shut up."

Peyton's POV

I put the money back in Logan's hand and he looked at me. "What? I can't be nice?"

"No not really." He chuckled. "Here. Take it."

"No it's yours." I smiled. "I don't think I could ever repay you for what you always do for me."

"You don't need to." He hugged me and Aubrey. "You're my sister. Just like this little munchkin. I'd do anything for you." He kissed my temple. He pulled back and put the money in my hand. "Go spend this and I don't want it back."

"Lo-" I rolled my eyes.

"Go!" He chuckled. I smiled and kissed his cheek. "Gross."

"What? My lips are clean. Are yours?" I stuck my tongue out and followed my grandmother and mother out the front door with my baby sister. I put Aubrey in her seat and climbed in behind mom. My phone buzzed and I looked down. I rejected the phone call and put it in Do Not Disturb. I smiled at Aubrey, focused on her boots.

Greyson's POV

I sighed, throwing my phone. It hit the wall and fell to the floor in pieces. "Greyson?" I got up and opened the door. Ethan looked at me and his smile dropped.

"You." I stepped toward him and he took a step back. "This is all your fucking fault! It's because I listened to your shit that I may just lose the only other female I will ever love for the rest of my life!" I grabbed his shirt collar, slamming him into the wall.

"Woah man! What are you talking about?"

"You told me to go to that damned party. It was you who gave me that drink. It was you who fucking told me to have fun. Well sometimes fun doesn't help. I MIGHT LOSE PEYTON BECAUSE OF YOU!" I slammed him into the wall again. He pushed me off him.

"I said that because you're 20 and you're trying to fucking act like a 30 year old man!" He pushed me again. "Be a teenager. Go crazy. Fuck a bitch. Get a few relationships. Don't even think of love until you are sure of what you want."

"I was sure you twat! I love Peyton! I couldn't be any less in love with her and more I think about it the more I love her every fucking minute! She's my one and only love and because of you and that fucking party, I cheated on my fiancé and now I'm probably going to lose her!" All my anger had built up and I exploded. I was filled with adrenaline.

The next thing I knew, my knuckles were busted and my roommate was on the floor groaning. I was being led out by some of my teammates that had pried me off Ethan. Everything hit me at once and I ran. They chased after me but I took a few shortcuts that lost them. I came up to a lake. I looked at the sun setting on the water. I sat there and pulled out my wallet. I stared at the pictures of me and Peyton. "I love you baby girl."
