(Tyler's P.O.V.)

"Okay she is going to be here in a few hours we need to make this welcome home party the best" I said while clapping my hands

I brought my friends with me to peyton's grandmas house so we could give her a proper welcome to her new home

Her grandma loves me and allowed me to do this for her while she went out for a bit to get some welcome home gifts for peyton

"Yo is she like hot or no?" My friend matt asked

I looked at him with a stern look

"Dude she is like my sister why the fuck would you ask me that?" I started to get mad

He put his hands up and gave me a sorry look while backing away from me

"Sorry man didnt know you guys were that close" I rolled my eyes

Afterwards when we finished we still had 2 hours until she arrived so we all went to the backyard which was the beach and we started a bonfire

"I cant wait for you guys to meet pey, shes such a sweet girl but shes a bit nervous and shy around new people so just give her time to adjust to you all" I informed them

"And you guys, she loves you so please dont say anything to stupid" I pointed at ethan and grayson

We met when I first came to L.A. it was at this gym and we hit it off right away and we all became such great friends

"Ok ok we will try" grayson joked

I looked at him and gave him a mean look

"So which one of us does she like better?" Ethan asked

I shrugged my shoulders

"I dont know but I'm pretty sure she would date either one of you" I mocked him

He rolled his eyes while looking back at the fire

An hour had passed and we haven't realized it until matt pointed it out

"Guys we only have an hour left before she gets here" he stood up to stretch

I looked at my phone to check the time noticing that peyton texted me

Peypey: I hope you didnt do anything stupid, nana texted me saying to wait for her to get home before going into the house

I looked up from my screen with a shocked look

"What's up dude?" Ethan asked in a confused tone

I read off the text to them while wondering what to do now

"We have to take everything down i dont think she wants a welcome home party" matt suggested

I shook my head

"No we are leaving it up, once she gets here she is done being so antisocial we are going to help her out of her comfort zone" I remarked

Everyone let out a huff and agreed with me

"There is a party on Friday so after school we should all go and bring her with us" ethan threw out the idea

"Great I idea" I replied

After a while we heard a car pull into the garage

We all ran into the house turned off the lights and his behind the couch. Once we heard the door open and the lights flip on we all jumped out and shouted at her

"WELCOME HOME PEYTON!" She almost had a heart attack once we jumped out it was pretty funny

(Peyton's P.O.V. )

I walked up to the door and slowly opened it praying nothing would happen and that I would be able to just go to bed

But right when I opened the door I knew I was wrong

"WELCOME HOME PEYTON!" Tyler jumped out with 3 other guys who I didn't get a good look at

I almost fell backwards from shock and I swear I almost had a heart attack

"Hey pey, welcome to your new home" tyler ran to give me a hug

I hugged him back but the moment I let go and glanced behind him I almost died

"Is that.. who I think it is?" I whispered to tyler so the other guys wouldn't hear

He nodded with a smirk

"I'll set you up later but come and meet them"

My heart skipped a beat at his words but let him lead me to his friends

"Guys this is peyton, peyton this is the guys. Matt, ethan, and grayson" he pointed out the guys as he named them off

They all waved and introduced themselves to me

"I'm Matt and you must be sexy" he gave me a weird smirk while getting way to close for comfort

I tried to get Tyler's attention with a small cough and when he finally noticed he grabbed matt and pulled him away from me

"Hey tyler told us you watched our videos so we kinda guessed you already knew who we were" ethan walked up to me while rubbing the back of his neck

I gave a small giggle, I felt my face start to heat up and I tried to hide my blushing bur I'm pretty sure he saw since he smiled and started to get anxious

I looked away from him and to grayson who held his hand out to me

"Hey peyton you look good for just getting off of a plane" he blushed as he avoided eye contact with me

I smiled a little while I glanced at ethan who seemed to be annoyed with his brother

"Well I mean I was just going to come home and go to bed, but I guess I now have a reason to stay up" I put my stuff on the floor while making my way into the kitchen grabbing some food

"So how does it feel to be here" tyler made his way over to me while rubbing my back

I looked at him and smiled

"Its actually nice here, but I'm just happy I'm getting homeschooled I was worried about school for a while but nana said she would have someone come and school me here" I explained

He looked a little disappointed

"So I wont see you every day, that sucks" he had a let down look flash across his face

While we had been talking I felt eyes look at me, once I looked away from tyler i saw ethan eyeballing me. As he noticed I was looking back he quickly looked at the floor

"Already making the twins like you huh?" I felt tyler nudge into me

I pushed him back and jokingly mocked him

"Oh shut up, please I'd be the last person they would ever be attracted to" I did have a really big crush on Ethan and dont get me wrong i would like to be more than friends with him

But it is what it is he probably likes really skinny girls with blonde hair and blue eyes.

I felt Tyler looking at me so I redirected my attention to him

"Please he keeps looking at you that says something, he never looks at any other girl like that" I got a little excited but I still didnt want to get my Hope's up

"If you want I can talk to him for you? And Friday we are all going to this beach party and we want you to go, so that way it's a good opportunity for you guys to get to know each other" he said while sounding a little happy to be a match maker

"Ok cupid I'll go" I made fun of him

He looked at me with a smirk and walked away to go to ethan
