Carter's p.o.v

Today, Lilian turns 20 year old. It's so bittersweet.. My baby is growing up so fast.

"Is she coming?" Luke asked me. "She is." I smiled. Lily and her siblings are currently at their dad's.

Bradley's p.o.v

"Happy birthday, Princess!" I said hugging Lily. "Thank you dad." She said kissing my cheek.

Carter and I got together and bought her a house. We aren't telling her until we go over to her mom's house.

"Happy Birthday!" Madison and Mason yelled. They tackled their big sister, and hugged her.

"Thank you guys." She laughed. We all got ready, and headed to her mom's. Everyone's gonna be there. It's gonna be like old times.

Carter's p.o.v

"Happy birthday to my first child, my baby girl, the girl who has made me the amazing mom I am, the one who taught me how to give unconditional love, and the one who showed me how it felt to be unconditionally loved, I don't know why I'm crying, I promised myself I wouldn't cry," I said laughing, as everyone else laughed as well. "Lilian, you have been my best friend, the one I could go to for anything, my backbone, and my daughter. You have been so wonderful and although we have our moments, you are the love of my life. I couldn't imagine my life without you. You make my life so wonderful and I love you so much. It's so surreal that you're already 20 now! You've become such a beautiful young lady, and I'm proud of what you're becoming and what you're doing. Here's to my first love, my baby girl, Lilian." I said wiping tears from my face. Lily hugged me really tight. "I love you." She told me.

Bradley stood up. "Lily, my love, where do I begin? Like your mom said, you are so wonderful and a beautiful young lady. You were my first child, my first love, and you taught me so many things. You taught me such a great dad, and even though I have had my moments, you make me believe I'm a better dad," he said. Lilian was crying, really hard.

"When you're mum and i first split, I thought my life was over. I was depressed and sad and i didn't know what to do. But having you kids by my side has made everything worth it. You are so wonderful, and so smart and beautiful. I love you very much baby girl. It's hard to believe you're finally 20! Cheers!" Bradley finished and we all went to party.

I looked at my baby girl, finding it hard to believe that she's 20. I met her when she was only months old, and now she's twenty.

I saw her smiling as her boyfriend (Luke Brooks) hugged her and kissed her. She's so happy, and nothing makes me happier.

"I'm surprised you and Brad are getting along." Luke whispered. "Yeah, well we're trying for the kids." I said.

He nodded, and went to go out with Kian and the rest of the boys. "Thanks again for inviting me and Kendall. I know it wasn't exactly easy for you." Bradley said.

"No problem at all. I did it for the kids." I said. "Do you want the kids to spend the night?" Brad asked me.

"Yes, always." I said. The party came to an end, and everyone started leaving. Brad left the kids with me.

"Thank you for everything mom. You're so wonderful." Lily said hugging me. "Of course my lover." I said smiling.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There's been so much drama going on with everyone. Sam Pottorff came back & has been causing more drama than ever.

Kylie had her baby, and she hasn't been with Kian or Kai very much. She's been spending all her time with Sam.

Sam wants me to give him a chance, but I don't know if he's changed very much. It's hard to give him a second chance.

I walked upstairs to my room, and looked through all my jewelry. I found the necklace that Sam had given me for my 16th birthday.

*flashback*

I grabbed my phone and as I was headed to my room, Sam stood in the hall way. "Happy birthday." He said handing me flowers and a gold box.

"Um, thanks." I said as I set the flowers in my room. He walked in. "The flowers are a sorry gift, and the gold box is your birthday present. I'm really sorry, and I hope you like what I got you." Sam said.

"You're really confusing." I laughed. I opened the gold box, and inside was a beautiful necklace with a pink heart on it. I turned it over, and it said 'happy b-day Carter'

I looked at Sam and smiled. "Thank you so much. It's beautiful." I said as I smiled. He helped me put it on, and we headed downstairs.

*flashback over*

Sam and I had been fighting because he had called me a slut a night before, or a couple of days before.

I have to admit, I do miss the things Sam and I did when we had a thing. Although he hurt me a lot, I miss how sweet he was with me.

And it sucks that things didn't end up how I wanted. We could've been a family, but that's just not what happened.

I happily married Bradley, and although our marriage only lasted years, I loved him.

I never even thought about Sam, and even though I'm re-married, it's hard to not think about your teenage sweetheart.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been a couple of weeks, and I am currently holding Tyler. Ariel is asleep. "My mum and I are going to take the kids out." Luke told me.

A few minutes later, the kids and Luke and his mom left. I called Kian over, and he came over.

He's been going through a tough time. Kylie basically left him for Sam. I love Kian so much. He's like a brother to me.

He's been through so much in such a short time. I love spending time with him, and getting our minds off of things.

He stayed a few hours, and then Luke came back with my babies. They were asleep, so I put them in their cribs.

Luke grabbed my phone, and it looked like he was going through something, but I didn't mind because I have nothing to hide from him.

"Carter, what the fuck are these?" He said shoving my phone into my face. They were texts from Brad. We had been talking about the kids, and trying to get along for them.

"It's texts from Bradley.." I said. "Obviously. Is this how you talk to each other? Like you're still married?" He said raising his voice.

"First of all, don't raise your voice at me. And second of all, Bradley and I talk for the kids. That's all. We don't talk to each other like we're still married. Chill the fuck out." I said taking my phone back.

Before I knew it, things escalated. Luke got out of control, and began shattering flower vases, cups, and everything.

"Stop! You're gonna wake the babies up!" I yelled. He didn't care. He kept destroying things.

He ran upstairs, and came down with the babies. "I'm leaving." He said before slamming the door behind him.

He took my babies. He fucking took my babies. What the fuck is going on? The only person I wanted to call was Lily.

Soon, Lily, Madison, Mason, and Kian came over. It sucks so much. He didn't have to take Tyler and Ariel.

"It'll be okay momma." Mason said hugging me. There were pieces of glass everywhere.

Lily and Kian took care of that. "Don't be sad, mom. It will be okay. I promise." Madison said hugging me.

"Thank you baby." I said wiping my tears.
