CAM'S POV

I'm honestly fine. I don't care about what happened. I only had the panic attack because I was worried the kids saw, but they didn't see a thing. They slept through the whole thing.

I'm helping teach Channing to cook.

I had some bruises but I covered them with makeup.

Everyone went back home so it's just the kids and Aaron and Channing and I. Aaron and Ethan are at school though.

It's been a month.

Anna insisted on having the kids over at her apartment last night.

The government took Matt's house because he got arrested.

Channing and I have been so busy, we haven't had sex in the longest time.

We haven't been alone.

I'm helping him make breakfast for the two of us.

He's starting to get distracted, and his lips are on my neck when someboy clears their throa loudly.

I whip around.

Aaron.

I look at the clock.

"You should be at school." I frown.

Channing and I aren't really hard on him.

"Yeah, I left." He says.

"Why?" I ask.

"Because there's this hot girl and I got the nerve to ask her out last week and she totally blew me off and made fun of me in front of the whole school. I hate it here."

"Yeah, sorry babe, I agree with my baby brother." Channing grins, kissing me. "I hate it here too."

I frown. "Why?"

"Because everything terrible happens here. All the good things happen back home."

"So you want to move back to Alta?"

"No, but back to Utah, yeah."

I hesitate for a long time.

I'm wearing his t-shirt and a thong.

"I mean, we could." I frown.

"We can do it while the kids are still little." He says.

I think about it for a while.

"Alright, yeah, I'm down."

"Let's lay the rules down." Channing says. "the house has to be at least six bedrooms and four bathrooms, there has t be a lot of outside space, there has to be a lot of parking space, a good town, not big, and nowhere over two hours from our parents."

Both of our families live in Salt Lake City.

I nod, agreeing.

"Alright, okay, yes, I'm down."

"Wait, so we're moving? Again?" Aaron asks.

"Yeah, I guess so."

"What are your rules?" Channing asks.

He's literally standing in his boxer briefs and Aaron doesn't even care.

"Well, you said everything, but I also want schools close, a nice, safe community with low crime, and good schools."

Channing adds them.

"And a nice park." He puts that on there too.
