Mila-Rose's POV

I wake up to Trevor playing with his toes. "You are a dork." I say, smiling at the baby. I leave him on my bed and quickly change into a gray tank top, jean shorts and white converse. I grab Trevor and sit down at my vanity with him. I brush in some mascara and carry Trevor downstairs. "She's awake!" Daniel cheers as I walk into the kitchen. "Leave me alone. I've been up since three forty five. You guys slept in until eleven." I say. He pokes his tongue out at me and I roll my eyes. I walk into the kitchen and grab my phone off the counter. I check my messages and see one from Connor.

Connor: hey Mills, Selena had the baby. Well babies. Turns out she was pregnant with twins so now Trevor has two baby sisters. You can come to the hospital whenever and visit. And yes you can bring friends. I'd love to meet anyone in your life.

I smile at the text. "Who's down to go to the hospital?" I ask, walking back into the living room. "Was the baby born?" Rosa asks. "Babies. Turns out she was pregnant with twins. So this little guys has two sisters." I say. "Are you sure we can come?" Jonah asks. "Yup. Connor wants to meet my friends. So let go see some babies!" I say. He laughs and we all walk out to the car. I strap Trevor into his little seat which sits between Corbyn and Jack. I climb into the drivers seat and Jonah sits next to me. I turn on the radio and some random station announces that the next song is Trust Fund Baby by Why Don't We. We all freeze as the song starts. "That's our song!" Zach says. I turn it up a bit and we start dancing and singing. "And all we used dream about was getting rich and getting out!" We scream. We sing and dance until the song is over.

"Now we can head to the hospital." I say. I turn on Spotify and Taylor Swift's End Game plays. We sing along to every song that comes on until we get to the hospital. I pull into a parking space and grab Trevor. Jonah grabs his diaper bag and we all head inside. I asked Connor the floor and room number and he said floor five, room 713. We crowd into a elevator and head up to floor five. We make it to her room and we lightly knock on the door. Connor opens it and takes Trevor from me. He lets us in and I quickly introduce everyone. "Now can I see the babies?" I whine. Selena laughs. She hands me the baby she was holding and Connor hands the other baby to Rosa. "What are their names?" Daniel asks, looking up from the baby Rosa has. "Mills is holding Brinley and Rosa has Caroline." Selena answers. Jonah bumps my shoulder. "She has one of your many middle names." He jokes.

I roll my eyes. Jonah sits down on the floor and I sit next to him. We play with Brinley until we need to leave. I hand Brinley back to Selena and Corbyn gives Caroline to Connor. "I'll babysit whenever." I say. Connor laughs. "We know. Now go be a teenager." He says. I roll my eyes and follow everyone back to the car. "Now what do we do?" Mariana asks. "I can just make a video later. So we can do whatever." I say. "We can go to the beach. That way you can meet Gabbie." Jack offers. "We'll go back to the house, get ready and head to the beach. We should be done in an hour." I say. He nods and taps away at his phone. I start the drive home and get stuck in traffic. "Tell her to meet at my place. We'll be sitting here forever." I say. Jack nods and texts her. "So how was everyone's day?" Corbyn asks. I chuckle and roll my eyes. My phone rings and I check the caller ID. FaceTime call. I answer and I'm met with the face of Sabrina. "Sabby!" I exclaim. "Hey Mills!" She says.

"How was the tour?" I ask. "Wonderful. I'm gonna miss those boys." She says. "I don't blame you. Those boys are something else." I say. "Tell me about it. Anyways, what's new with you?" She asks. "Well I got to see my biological brother after a few years." I say. We talk for a bit until she has to leave. As soon as we hang up, Chance calls me. "Hey Chance." I answer. "Hey Opal, I was hoping I could ask a favor of you?" He asks. "Depends, what's the favor?" I ask. "Can you watch Brooklyn tomorrow? The boys and I have tons of press conferences tomorrow and I don't know who else to call." He says. "Totally. I love Brooklyn. Just give me a time." I say. "Thank you so much Opal. I know this is completely last minute but I couldn't think of anyone else." He says. "Chance don't stress. Your in a band now. Brooklyn will always be first priority but your job is important too. I'll keep her over the weekend so you have time to work and to relax." I say.

"Opal you don't have to do that. I'll be fine." He says. "Too late. If you don't pack her enough clothes I'll just buy her some. Brooklyn will be with me until Monday. Now get some rest for all those press conferences." I say. "Thanks Opal. Love you." He says. "Love you too Chance." I say. I hang up and throw my phone back into the cup holder. Traffic starts to move again and we make it back to my house. Just as we all get out of my car another car pulls into my driveway. Instead of introducing myself right away I go inside and grab my puppies. I take them up to my room and feed them. "You guys are coming with us. I'm not leaving you alone all day." I say. They glance up from their food but immediately go back to it.

I walk into my closet and grab a swimsuit. I quickly change into it and put on a black cover up. I grab a pair of yellow flip flops and slip them on. I grab my beach bag and pack somethings from the bathroom. I grab a water bowl and poop bags for the puppies before grabbing both of them and heading downstairs. A girl, I'm assuming it's Gabbie, is sitting on my couch and playing on her phone. Instead of saying hi, I walk into the kitchen and pack a cooler with water bottles, fruit, and sandwiches. Daniel walks in, now dressed in swim trunks and a white tank top. "Need any help?" He asks. "You can help me cut up the watermelon." I say. He grins. I cut the watermelon in half and we each start cutting up our halves. "So what do you think of Gabbie?" Daniel asks.

"I haven't talked to her yet. I've been getting ready." I say. He nods. "Do you think the other would be okay with going to a dog beach? I don't want to leave the puppies alone all day. I haven't been with them a lot because your families came in and we hung out a lot. I'd like to spend more time with them that way I don't feel like I'm neglecting them. I didn't get them just for clickbait or something. I actually want to be a good dog mom and take care of them." I ramble. Daniel chuckles. "Mills, relax. You're a great dog mom. You haven't been neglecting them at all. And I'm sure the others would love a dog beach. We all love Pancake and Waffle." Daniel reassures. I sigh and nod. "Now can we finish cutting the watermelon?" He asks, throwing a small piece at me. "Daniel. James. Seavey. You did not just do that." I say. He smiles. "Mila-Rose. Ophelia. Brinley. Paul. I totally just did that." He says.

I grab the nearest thing, which happens to be an orange, and throw it at him. "It's on Paul." He says. He comes running towards me and I scream and run around the counter. "You started this Daniel!" I exclaim, taking off towards the table. He grabs my waist and throws me over his shoulder. "Daniel James Seavey!" I shout. He carries me outside and throws me onto my in ground trampoline. Before I can react, he sits on top of me and holds my arms down. "Daniel! Let me go!" I exclaim. "I'm good right here Mills." He says, smiling. "You started it Daniel! You threw watermelon at me!" I say. "You threw an orange!" He says. "I'm not wasting watermelon! That's expensive!" I say. "Do I even want to ask?" We look and see everyone standing by the door. It was Corbyn who asked. Daniel and I both start talking at the same time causing everyone to roll their eyes.

"Guys just get up so we can leave." Rosa says. Daniel climbs off of me and offers me a hand. I get up and look at him. "If you were trying to seduce me it wasn't working. I love you but not like that." I say. He laughs and shoves my shoulder. We walk over to the others and I walk over to Gabbie. "I don't believe we've officially met. I'm Mila-Rose. But you can call me Mills." I say, holding out my hand. She grabs it and shakes my hand. "I'm Gabbie." She says. I smile and turn towards everyone else. "Are we all ready to go?" I ask. Everyone nods and we go back into the house. "Is it okay if we go to a beach that allows dogs?" I ask. "Totally. I miss my little nieces." Corbyn says. I smile. I grab my bag and the puppies while Jonah and Jack grab the cooler. We head out to my car and throw the cooler into the trunk.

I climb into the drivers seat while Corbyn takes both puppies. I start the car and play my Spotify. Love on the Brain by Rhianna plays and I lightly sing along. We come to a stop light and the girl in the car next to us starts freaking out when she sees me. "You're Mila-Rose!" She shouts. I smile. I pose for a picture she snaps and we drive away. We continue driving and listening to music. We get to the beach and park. We grab our things and find a spot in the sand. We lay down a few blankets and the guys immediately run out into the water. I roll my eyes and sit down by Mariana. Time to hang out with the girls.
