Zander's P O V

I used to hear a lot about this girl Peyton but never got to put a name to the face, I'd never heard of her until senior year. I'd been at that horrible high school for 5 years and I'd never heard or a Peyton before, maybe she didn't know me either. That wouldn't be surprising, no one knew me and that was great. Just great until someone did finally know me and it was her, dammed her for being such an annoying brat.

Walking down the halls of the school I always daydreamed and that was certainly something that your not meant to do with the halls filled with plenty of teenagers and I proved my point when I bumped into someone "what the hell" I bent down to pick and my books "sorry" and the person is a she and it helped me, great. I could feel it staring "do I know you?" I shrugged getting up with my books and walking off and that's when Sydney gave me a smirk, what? I cringed at her. I've always hated that fake ass thing, she drove me insane whenever she tried to ask me if we could 'go somewhere private to 'talk'' I've hated her since then "stupid whore" I walked to my first class and then did my usual routine for the rest of the school time, how exciting!

I never thought I would actually come to the US and bump into a girl then have her randomly show up in Paris, I lived here all till I had to start high school and I'd only just got back after acing all my classes which happened a lot of months to early, opps. And I'd never gotten to learn to speak the language here I just understood what people said, I spoke in English and they would reply in Spanish. I know, I'm weird like that but oh well.
Looking up from the counter I saw the girl that bumped into me at school, and dam she's gorgeous she asked me for directions to the park and then realisation quickly got to her and then she tied to ask another question "are you-" I cut her off with a sigh then I quickly told her the direction and she left. Not long later though she came back, and dam was she annoying "hey could I get a hot chocolate?" I looked at her and tried to do my best glare but she kept smiling I'm positive that she doesn't want a hot chocolate she just wants to annoy me, so I said "you don't want a hot chocolate" She sighed then showed me her money "yes I do, please?" I sighed taking her money then giving her, her change "what's your name?" I sighed and mumbled "Zander" I'm also positive she almost didn't hear me.. "Zander is it?" I nodded then gave her the hot chocolate, sadly I didn't know how to make a normal one and just made me it how I liked it with a surprise on a napkin with my number on it "you can stop trying to annoy me now" She looked at me and smirked, dam this girl "is it working?" I couldn't hold my straight face and gave her a smile "get out" She laughed but started heading to the door "see you tomorrow Zander!" I sighed, hopefully "hopefully not" I tried my best to sound like I wasn't interested but I was.
As I was cleaning I got a call from a unknown number then I smiled "Peyton" picking up the phone I sighed "you finally used those eyes aye?" She laughed at my stupid attempt of a joke then said "don't I get a hi?" I rolled my eyes, Peyton White is something else

3 months later

"Zander I have a little bump! Come look!" I chuckle at her then said "no thanks I'd like to keep my eyeballs intact" She sighed and I walked in, she gave me a big smile and waved me over to her "feel it" I smiled then frowned, this was a baby but it definitely wasn't mine "what?" She asked and I sighed "we haven't even did anything, who's is it?" Realisation showed on her face, then regret.. "you remember Ryder?" I nodded, he was that new guy everyone use to talking about in high school, she sighed and then I asked with dread "it's his?" She nodded and I gave her a reassuring smile "that's fine, I'll take care of both of you" I kissed her forehead and she nodded, I've fallen for this girl I wasn't gonna leave her just because of a baby that wasn't mine, i'd look after them and that's something that the actual father should be doing.. I know Ryder will come back and want them and I'd have to let Peyton go, my heart pained at that. The pain of letting someone you love go, I would be okay though I loved her and if leaving meant making her happy that was okay.

After the shooting

After carrying Jackson and putting him on the kitchen island me and Peyton's brothers stood there in silence while she frantically went all over the place trying to save her brother, it was hard for all of us but it would be worse on her so we let her do what she wanted to do, I wanted to comfort her but then I knew she would go all hulk on me and I didn't want that, her brothers didn't want that either. I saw Ryder and Peyton's mother come in just as Peyton finished lashing at Cole then going back to Jackson, we told them to stay put and they obeyed. We watched the scene and you could tell from where I was standing that it was hard for the Whites after losing Tim then losing Jackson that would leave some damage there for them all, I didn't know about Ryder though he was probably just worried about Peyton. I knew he didn't know about the baby but we were gonna tell him when she was out and asleep, I'd be leaving as well and as hard as that is for me I know that that'll be what Peyton needs but if Ryder fucks it up, she'll always be able to come back to me. No doubt about that one

Writing a note down after we told Ryder or basically I told Ryder about the baby, he agreed to keep her extra safe and I held his words to that. He better look after her and that baby or I would hunt him down and torture his ass "thank you for everything Zander" I nodded at the White's and Ryder then got my things ready to leave back to Canada "see you guys around maybe" they laughed a little then waved at me, I walked to the door opening it then sighing. Walking out I closed it then got it my car, I looked at the rear view mirror and saw Peyton's face. It was stained with dried tears, she put her hand up and from here you could tell she was sobbing. I held in my whining and drove off, goodbye Peyton.
