Adopted By Dove Cameron And Ryan McCartan

Chapter 5

Dove's P. O. V.
After Ry goes to shower, I crawl into bed. I lie there thinking about how perfect life is. But then I realize, it may seem perfect to us. But Peyton has been through so much. What if she doesn't want us to adopt her? But if she does, will I be a good mother?

As all these thoughts travel through my brain, Peyton rolls over and climbs onto my chest. She tucks her head underneath mine and I wrap my arms around her. I can't believe how lucky Ryan and I are to have met such an amazing little girl.

Peyton's P. O. V.
As Dove climbs into bed with me I crawl into her chest, and she wraps her arms around me. I feel the safest I've ever felt. I wish I could stay with Dove and RyRy forever. But I know tomorrow that they will take me home, back to where I am all alone.
Eventually my eyelids are to heavy and I fall asleep, only to be waken a couple hours later by my same terrifying dream.

Ryan's P. O. V.
A couple hours later I wake up to cries. I look over and see my baby sitting up, rocking herself back and forth, and crying histerically

I turn on my lamp and look over. Dove is still asleep and P is bawling. I pick up P and rub her back in attempt to sooth her. But she only started crying harder. I try bouncing her and rubbing her back but nothing seems to be working.

Dove's P. O. V.
I wake up a couple hours later to Ryan holding P while she is bawling histerically. I get out of bed and walk over to them. I take P from Ryan's arm's and sit on the edge of the bed. I rub her back and sing her some songs to try to calm her down. Eventually she falls asleep in my arms and I lay he back in out bed carefully.

I walk back over to Ryan and I can tell something is wrong with him.

"Baby," I pull him into a hug, "what's wrong?"

"She was hurting Dove. She was shaking. I I couldn't do anything to help her! What kind of father am I? He says as tears run down his cheeks.

"Hey. You know she has a difficult life Ry. And she's just adjusting. You did your best, and that's what matters. She is going to be fine. And you are going to be the best dad ever!" I say as he hugs me tighter.

We go back to bed and the rest of the night is pretty smooth. But as I fall back asleep, I can't help but think about how awful P's life must be. I fall asleep with tears in my eyes.

I wake up a couple hours later. And hear something from the bathroom. I rush in and see Ryan holding back P's hair as she pukes into the toilet. I grab a ponytail holder and put her hair in a loose pony. After another 5 or so minutes, Peyt finally stops puking.

I give her a bath and put her in bed where she easily falls asleep in minutes.

Ryan's P. O. V.
Peyton wakes me up a few hours later and says she doesn't feel well. All of a sudden, she begins to gag. I don't know what to do so I just rush her to the toilet and she vomits. I hold her hair back like I do for Dove when she gets sick.

Suddenly Dove rushed into the bathroom and ties up P's hair and rubs her back as she continues to vomit.

After a few minutes of vomiting, Dove gives P a bath, wraps her in a towel, and lies her back in the bed. She falls asleep pretty quickly.

Dove comes over to me in tears.

"I feel so bad Ry. She already has a shitty life, and now she's sick! She can't take much more. You saw last night. She's terrified." She says as she leans her head into my chest.

"I know Dove. I know. But her life will turn around. She will be with us forever." I tell Dove as I wipe the tears from her eyes and cheeks.

"We haven't even told her yet!" Pipes Dove.

"We'll tell her when she wakes up baby. It's ok. Just get some rest, OK? I love you Chlo." I tell her as I kiss her and she goes to lie down nest to Peyt.
