Chapter 20!!!!!

"This is irrelevant."

"That is not irrelevant!" Ty shouted back at me.

"Don't shout at me while our daughter is in the room Tyler and it is because I came in here ask if someone could tell me where my parents were."

Cassy was the first to speak. "First they went to grab something for Aunt Julia's work since you know she works at home now, then they went to some kind of dinner for your dad's work. Something along those lines." She pointed to Austin. "Which is why he's here. Aunt Julia and Uncle Lewis know that you and the idiot Tyler are fighting yet again and they didn't think Alec and I could handle it."

"So they gave us a baby sitter?" I questioned thinking that it was stupid since I know how to take care of myself since I am a mother.

"Pretty much." I sighed rolling my eyes. "Cas. can we make plans tomorrow with the girls since life sucks today?"

"Already planned for it." She replied and got up to follow me out of the room after kissing her boyfriend on the lips lightly.

"At least you're keeping things decent around the kid." Austin mumbled and Alec quickly threw one of pillows catching Austin in the face. I shook my head and walked out of the room with Cassy straight on my heels.

"You want to tell me why you're upset with Tyler?" She asked.

I was about to open my mouth to speak when a voice sounded from behind us. "Actually I would like to know what conclusions you came up with since my idiot brother told you something you were supposed to know yet."

I leaned on one leg causing my hip to stick out where I was holding Elena. She made gurgling noises while playing with my hair so I smiled at her before turned back to Tyler. "Give me some reasons on why you would need court papers concerning Elena then."

He sighed and sat down at one of the bar stools."I wanted my name on Elena's birth certificate." I'm pretty sure my heart skipped a beat from the shock.

"You aren't trying to take her from me?" I asked, my eyes staring straight into his.

He looked hurt as he answered. "No. I told you before that my life is with you and Elena. No less then both of you. Besides I would never hurt you in that way. I care to much to do that to you or Elena." I looked away from his eyes and to the ground, ashamed of myself for thinking he would do anything like that. "I won't blame you for being insecure about this Brooky. I mean we have been through a lot and you're still getting used to this all, I can tell, but I'm here to help you. Not hurt you. Why else would I want to kill Matthew for doing what he did to you?"

While still looking down I replied back to him. "I don't want to get hurt anymore." I answered truthfully thinking of the past couple of years.

He walked over slowly and lifted Elena from my arms only to give her to Cassy. I gave him a questioning look as he grabbed my hand and led me outside to the pool area. "I won't hurt you Brooky. Why can't you just forget Matthew?"

"I have forgotten him." I told him as he brushed some hair behind my ear, his hand lingering for a second longer.

"That's not what I meant.... I meant that I'm here so why did you need to go back to him?" My breathing stopped as I understood what he was really meaning.

"Tyler..."

"Never mind. I know what you're going to say." Then he left me there and hurried up the porch steps and into the house. I sat there watching his retreating form before deciding to go swimming with them all.

"Hey Tyler!" I called while running to the house. He turned around confused at my smiling face. "We should go swimming." I announced while talking Elena and going upstairs to find my bikini and her swimming diaper as well as her adorable swimsuit. I also put sunscreen on her delicate skin so she wouldn't get burnt. 

By the time  I had gotten myself and Elena ready everyone else was already in the pool. I smiled at Cassy and Alec as they splashed each other with water and how Austin came up behind Alec scaring him and how Tyler laughed along with my cousin. He smiled up as me as I put the towels down on the table and put my daughter in her pool float after checking the temperature with my hand and when I turned back towards everyone else Tyler wasn't there. Wet hands touched the bare skin at my waist and I had only enough time to turn around and wrap my arms around Ty's neck before he tried to throw me into the pool, which ended up making us both go in with a huge splash. 

I righted my body and kicked up from the bottom of the twelve foot deep side of the pool quickly breaking the surface with Tyler a split second behind me. I put my hands on his shoulders and pushed him back under, laughing as I swam over to my cousin who was making funny faces at Elena. I slipped my arms around her neck and my legs around her waist holding on tight, but not choking her as I pushed Alec away.

"Mine." I told him sternly and reached out to Elena, ticking her sides. "This one is also mine." I informed them as my sides were instantly being tickled. I released Cassy and fell back against Tyler as Alec took Cassy into his arms smirking at me.

"No this one's mine." Then he kissed her lips and I quickly moved to cover my daughter's innocent eyes.

"Ewwwww!!!!" I screeched as my hands were over Elena's while Tyler's arms around my bare stomach. Tyler laughed, swimming closer so that he could hold Elena and still have his arm around me. He had the hugest smile and then suddenly we heard...

"Smile!!!!" From Austin. I looked up and laughed at the girly way he was posing while trying to take a picture of my own small, but lovely family. I thought back to Micheal and about how much more wonderful it would be if he was here.

"What are you thinking of?" Tyler whispered into my ear as he tilted his head up to the sky too.

"Micheal." I whispered back with a smile on my face. "I know he's watching us right now."

"How do you know?"

"I just do Ty. Can you not feel someone watching?"

"I'm hoping there is." He whispered and kissed my cheek.

"Thank you Tyler."

He turned me around to look at my face. "For what?"

"For standing up against Matthew with me."

"You know I would have anyway."

"I was hoping." I replied giving him a kiss on his cheek as I took Elena from his arms and splashed him in the face with water. 

A/N: Hey my wonderful fans. I know it's been a pretty long time since I last updated, but in my defense I've been busy with practice after school everyday and homework. Hope you like it and sorry if there is any mistakes. I have now decided that once I finish the story I will go back after a while and edit it all, but I'm not sure when the story will end because I have a few directions I'm considering on where to take the story. Well anyway here's another chapter and I'll try to update more soon.
