*Cam's POV* 

It was 2am by the time we got back to campus, throw in a shower and it was 3am. I was beyond exausted and so relieved that tomorrow was Saturday and I could sleep as late as I possibly could. The only thing I had to do was go see Matt, Anna and the twins and go look for a dress to the engagement party. If I was even gong to go. What am I saying? Of course I'm going to go. I already said I would and it will only look worse if I bail. Pushing the thoughts of the next week from my head, I rest my head against one of my lavender scented pillow and slipped into a deep sleep.

It was 12pm when I woke up. Liv was sitting up on her bed, flipping through an old magazine of hers while I sat up in bed, stretching my arms before reaching for my phone. 

"It's been going off all morning," she laughed as I took a look at the 32 unread texts and 16 missed calls, all from Austin. 

"I picked up once," she began as I shot her an amused smile, "he didn't call back after that one," 

"What the hell did he want?" I stated, scrolling quickly through the texts: 

I just want you to talk to me. 

We used to be able to say everything to each other. 

These people aren't good for you. 

You need us back in your life just like we need you. 

Please text me back. I miss you

And so on and on and on and on. 

"God, he's like a clingy girlfriend," I stated as she almost choked. 

"Are you gonna call him back?" 

"Hell no," I laughed. 

"Well then he's gonna keep calling," she continued, flipping the page of her magazine. 

"Oh, do you not know?" I smiled. 

"Know what?" she smirked. 

"You can block numbers on iPhones now," I smiled, doing just that as the messages and missed calls disappeared.

I pulled up to the house and stepped out of my car. It was hot in Miami, ridiculously hot so I made it my mission to wear as little clothes as possible to avoid a heat stroke underneath the Miami sun. I wore a white sundress with a light blue jean jacket and a pair of brown sandals. The house was messy to say the least, dishes were piled to the sink and there were clothes scattered everywhere. 

"Matt? Anna?" I spoke softly, hoping not to wake any potentially sleeping babies. 

"Hey," Anna whispered, wrapping me in a tight hug.

"You're so little! I can wrap my arms around you again," I spoke before she smiled at the complement. 

"Where's Matt?" I asked, as she blinked, trying to stay awake. 

"I think he is asleep," she laughed, "in the backyard," 

"Oh God," I couldn't help but laugh, "I'll go get him," 

"Alright," she laughed, easily taking a seat on the couch. 

Sure enough, Matt was asleep outside. Not in a chair or anything but on the grass. This poor kid had fell asleep on the grass. 

"Matt," I began, pushing his shoulder as I crouched down to face him, 

"Is it crying again?" he yelled, sitting up, "Oh, it's you," 

"Well hello to you too," 

"That's not what I meant," he smiled. 

"Are you okay?" I asked, pulling his hand for him to stand. 

"No. That's the only sleep I've gotten in four days. I think I'm going to die," 

I couldn't help but laugh at his exaustion, "you poor thing," 

"I hate my life," he playfully sobbed. 

This was amusing me so much more than it should. 

"Don't have kids," he demanded, grabbing my wrist. 

"Just get inside," I laughed. 

"Please don't ever say that to me again. That's how I got in this problem in the first place," he replied as he walked in the house, leaving me hysterically laughing in the yard. 

I stepped foot into the house to see them both laying flat on the couch. 

"Okay," I began, "both of you up," 

"No," they both said in sync. 

"Get your asses up now," I demanded as they both stood. 

"Do you guys have earplugs?" I asked. 

"There is the cabinent with the flashlight," Anna spoke, her eyes remaining closed. 

I strode into the kitchen, pushing the memory of Zach finding out about Austin and I in here, I grabbed the earplugs and returned to the living room. 

"Here," I handed them the earplugs. 

"What are you doing?" Anna questioned as Matt just stared at me.. 

"Are there bottles in the fridge? And when was the last time they were fed?" I asked. 

"Yes and 11:30 and they have to be fed like every two hours," Matt answered. 

"I'm going to invite Liv and Todd over. We'll take care of the babies until like 9, we'll clean the house and you guys can shower and sleep," I smiled as they both burst into tears. 

I couldn't help but gawk at them as they stand, still sobbing. 

"Thank you. Thank you so much," Anna sobbed as they both ran to hug me. 

"Yeah, no, no," I began, "Hug me after you shower. I'm pretty sure there's baby vomit on you,"

They hurried off to their room before I pulled out my phone to text Liv and Todd. 

I'm babysittng and I'm super alone. I'm willing to buy fro yo after if you come help me play house. I'm begging. 

Within a minute, there were three replies. 

Todd: Only because Fro yo is my life. 

Liv: Only because Proffesor Rosswell will be there tonight for his son's fundraiser (; 

Todd: you're a whore
