From underdogs to top dogs

Chapter 67

The group couldn't believe it. They were being forced to put up with arch enemy number one. Everything was fine though. For half an hour at least.

Nat and Ashlynne looked at their phones and then each other.

"I don't know why people are freaking out about that talking dog on YouTube." Ashlynne smirked.

"I know," Nat responded "Skye's been in front of the camera for years." Skye suppressed a growl in her throat before she leaned forward and gave her reply.

"Ashlynne, Nat, I was so worried when Aunt Carol told me you were going swimming in the river, about all the garbage that could go in your mouth but I'm glad to see it's all coming out again." Natasha and Ashlynne stared at the girl and before they could respond, she stood up.

"Come on guys. We don't have to put up with this." And with that, the group went up to Skye's room.

The group started to walk into the pink room but Skye stopped them.

"Just a sec." She smiled, closing the door behind them. They heard a muffled scream before the girl opened the door. "Okay."

Her friends smiled and wandered in.

"I fucking hate them." Rocky sighed.

"Ditto. You owe me three bars of chocolate." Skye nodded in an 'I told you so' fashion. Suddenly, Everest and Rocky's phones rang. They looked down and frowned.

"Back in a second." They said in sync and left the room.

Marshall, Skye and Zuma glanced at each other, a baffled look on their faces. The three walked out of the room and split off; Marshall to find Everest and Zuma and Skye to find Rocky.

Everest was sat at the top of the stairs, talking in an angry, hushed tone. He sat silently behind her and listened.

"No. No you can't come and see her. Because I said so, don't you sweetheart me! You left me the second that you found out I was pregnant and now suddenly you miss me. I thought parents were supposed to support their kids no matter what?" The auburn haired girl was almost in tears. Marshall placed a hand on her shoulder and scooted next to her, giving a small smile which she returned before talking again.

"You're right, I do have a family. Marshall, Savannah and Marshall's parents. They've done what's best for me." She hung up the phone and looked up. Her eyes started leaking small tears.

The black haired boy pulled his girlfriend into a hug as she cried onto his shoulder.

"I love you Everest." He sighed, not knowing what else to say.

"Really?"

"Ev," Marshall chuckled. "I say it everyday. Every night before we go to sleep. We have a beautiful daughter together. Of course I mean it." He proclaimed, giving her a gentle kiss. "Come on." He nodded up the stairs.

Just as the two were about to head up, they heard Natasha and Ashlynne talking about the group. The couple ducked low and listened.
