                                    Bryan's Pov

Val comes today. Holy shit Val is coming in like ten minutes. I literally ran to my room, threw on black skinny ripped jeans, a black shirt, and my red and black flannel. Screw shoes, who needs those. "BOYS IM HOMEEEE" oh I know that voice from anywhere, my Vals is home.

"VALENTINEEEE YOUR HEREE!" I yell as I literally run down the stairs and fall on my ass as I do so. Wow Val has grown up, she's so damn beautiful. I've always had the slightest crush on her. She just makes me feel some type of way. "Hey B" Val whispered while looking at me with her Ember brown eyes. "Hey Val, god you've grown up so damn much, you look so good, I fucking missed you" I whisper as I kiss her hair. "You've grown up too B, you look hot" she pulls away and winks at me. Mmhhmm and flirty little Valentine is back. " Good" I smirked as I lick my lips. Harmless flirting never hurt anyone. Right?

"VALSSSSS YOUR HOMEEE" Chris literally yells as he slides down the stairs. Val smiles so bright when she saw him, almost like she was waiting forever to see him. Oh dont get jealous Bryan, their also best friends. I watch as they greet eachother. She looks so happy. Like she's finally home. In his arms and not mine. I've always had this nagging pit in my stomach that told me she was into him. Ever since we were kids. Chris and Val have always been super close. I mean their birthday's are exactly one year apart. November 3rd. What a date to remember

"Ehm" I hear someone say from behind us. I turn around and spy the infamous Kennedy James and the rest of the pretty girl possy behind her. God I missed these girls. Most of us have been friends since diapers. Some closer than others. Chris and I run and hug them so tight.

Chris, Val, Raelynn, Emery, Kennedy and I have been friends since we were in diapers. London and Paisley met Vals and I in 9th grade during one of my soccer games. We got super close then. At the end of 12th grade Chris and I moved to LA to pursue our dreams. Thats when everyone started calling them the 'pretty girl possy.'

    "Ahh girls your hereee" I screech and run to hug them all, same with Chris. These girls have been with us through everything. I can't wait till all the boys meet them. They're going to love them. Its late so the girls wanted to find they're rooms and sleep since they're super jet lagged.

They got settled in their rooms and Val came back down to say goodnight to Chris and I. She looked so adorable in her silk pink pajama's. What am I saying. She always looks good.

"God I missed her bubs" Chris says as he slings his arm around my shoulder. "Yeah me too" I tell him happily. "Rae looks different, hell they all do, all grown up" He says as we sit at the table talking. "She got better" I tell him happily, last time we saw her she was a mess. Hee family was shitty. Her dad would beat her and her mom when he was drunk. She was cutting, she wasn't as happy as she deserved to be. We could all see it, we were just too scared to say anything.

"Im glad Sean left, he was a dick, who does that? Who hits the people they love because their drunk. It makes me sick" Chris grimaces. "A fuck up, thats who" I say sadly. It was midnight now. "Im going to bed bro, love ya" Chris  yawns. "Goodnight bro" I say tiredly.

    I've been sitting at the table for two hours just staring at nothing. Wondering how I got here and hoping I could have gotten Val out of her shit house. "Hey B" I hear a voice from behind me. I turn around and see Kennedy standing behind me with her arms crossed, wearing one of Val's hoodies. "Hey Kens" I smile. "What are you doing up still its 2 in the morning" Kennedy asked yawning.

    "Cant go to bed without thinking about how bad it must have been for Val when we left. I know she had you guys but I know she always counted on chris and I to protect her and we left" I tell her. "Bryan honestly she was broken. She cried every night for a whole month, it was so fucking hard to watch." Kennedy said slowly with tears pricking in her eyes. "She never blamed you guys, you know." She said wiping her eyes with her sleeves.

    "I know, I just feel like I should have brung her with us.  It would have been so much easier" I whispered sadly. "Bryan she would still be broken. It takes a true kind of love to fix her." Kennedy said as she hugged me. "I could love her like that" I cried into her chest. "I know you could, but could she love you the same way?" She asked me and I nodded knowing what she meant. I mean you'd be blind if you didn't see the way she looked at me like I was her protector but not her lover.

    "Do you think she loves him" I whisper, "who? Chris?" She asks slowly. "Yeah" I say looking at her slowly. "No B, she doesn't love him that way" she reassures me. "Good because that would suck" O laugh trying to light up the mood. "Yeah, it really would, because I believe Rae has a little crush on him" she laughs. "Oh I know she does" I tell her as I stand up. "Lets go to bed B" Kennedy tells me. We make our way to our rooms and say goodnight at our doors. I lay in bed and stare at the ceiling for a bit.

    I have to introduce the boys tomorrow. Thats not something I'm happy to do. "Hey B" I hear a little voice as my door opens. There standing in the door is Emery in adorable little bunny pajamas. Ive always been the closest to Val, Emery, and Kennedy. "Hey Ems, whats up?" I ask her softly. "I can't sleep, I need my Bryan cuddles" she smiles big. "Of course Ems" I say sweetly. She climbs in bed and snuggles into my chest. I kiss her hair and smile as I hear her soft snores. I finally fall asleep.

I sigh as I see the sun though the blinds and look down to see Emery still snuggled up to my side. I smile contently, She looks so adorable. Ugh I hear the boys making ruckus in the kitchen. I wake up Emery and she goes back to her room and wakes up the girls.

"Hey my boysssss" I say as I walk down the stairs to meet the boys. "Where are the girlssss" Tyler asks as he braids his curls. "Emery is waking them all up" I reply as I make my way ti the kitchen to make myself a strawberry smoothie for breakfast.

"Hello boysssss, Im Valentine but call me Val" I see Val walk down the stairs wearing her black leggings and a red crop top with her red vans. Her hair is in two braids and she has red ribbons tied at the ends. She looks so cute. "Hey Valllllll" I hear Tyler say as he walks up to get and they hug. "Yoooo were twinning" she giggles as she touches his hair. "Hell yea" Tyler smiles. I feel my hand tightening around my cup but I loosen up.

All the others greet each other. Emery is the only one who hasn't come down yet. She's always been last to everything. She loves to look her best to make a good first impressions amazing.

"Oh hello you cute boys" Emery says as she walks down the stairs. She's wearing black leggings, a white crop top with sunflowers on it, she's wearing her sunflower Vans and has her hair curled with her glasses on. She looks as pretty as ever. Yep leave it to Emery to look hot all the time.

Tyler and Valentine have been talking all day. They were getting along super well. They seemed to be getting super close its only been a day. Val has been my best friend since diapers and she's getting closer to him already.

"She looks happy" Emery says from beside me startling me a bit "yeah she really does" I reply smiling a little. "Is he a good guy" she asks seriously "of course, he's the sweetest" I reply. "Good because it looks like their getting really close" she smiles. "Yeah it really does" I say. I have to be happy that she's making friends with them. I cant be jealous that she's getting close to Tyler.
