The Badboy And His Clique

*Brody's P.O.V*

"Don't ever lay a hand on Aspen. You were never her dad. Only a father!" I yell as he falls to the ground.

"Brody!" Aspen cries I'm distress.

"You're okay baby." I coo and run my fingers through her hair.

"Oh! Thank you so much Brody!" Her mom kisses me head engulfing us both in a hug.

Aspen's dad gets up slowly and trues to throw another punch but I catch his hands and ask, "do you really want to do this again?"

He drops his hands and walks out the door without another word.

Aspen stands with her head nhzzled into my chest and I keep her close.

"Stop crying baby girl. You're okay. I'm here." I coo and her mom smiles.

"Thank you." She mouths.

I smile and she leaves into her room.

"Thank you so much Brody." She looks up at me.

"Anytime baby, anytime." I kiss her nose and she smiles.

"You want to go take a nap?" I ask.

She nods and I carry her up to her room and we cuddle and eventually fall asleep.

*Sage's P.O.V*

Ryker lays down on my bed and just stares at the ceiling.

"What are you thinking about?" I ask sitting next to him.

"How I got so lucky to run into you." He smiles still staring.

"Fate?"

"Maybe." He shrugs.

"Maybe." I smile.

"You make me so, giddy inside. No one has ever done that." Ryker looks at me.

"Yeah?"

"Mhm." He pulls me down with him.

"Will you be mine?" He asks.

"Oh my god! I've been waiting to hear those words!" I smile and kiss him.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

"Yes?" I ask.

"Its mom." My mom opens the door.

"Hi mom." I smile and she looks at Ryker.

"You must be Ryker. My daughter has talk-"

"Mom." I shake my head.

"Oh, yeah, sorry. I just wanted to tell you I have to go into the office today, I won't be home until next week. They are making me go to New Mexico." She smiles.

"Okay mom. Have a safe flight!" I spring up and hug her.

"Be safe. Use protection." She whispers in my ear.

"Mom!" I gasp.

Ryker chuckles and my mom winks. "Keep her safe por favor."

"Indeed." He smiles and my mom nods.

"See you in a week or so sweetie. I love you. Bye Ryker. Nice meeting you."

"Bye Mrs.Bailey. nice meeting you as well.

"Bye madre, te amo." I smile and she walks out.

"Wow, y'all talk in Spanish sometimes?" He asks.

"And sign language." I nod feeling accomplished.

"Damn." Ryker smile. "So what exactly did your mom whisper?" He smirks.

"Don't act like you didn't hear." I chuckle.

"Hear what?" He raises an eyebrow.

"Boy bye." I put 5 fingers to the face.
