love.

tears keep streaming down your face. you give your dad another hug. you don't want to let go. being on his arms made up for the months you spent without him. the heartache and the pain you went through with your mom. the mental strain you went through with your mom. being with your dad everything felt so easy. you grab Syd's hand.

y/n | syd. i'm sorry for how i've acted toward you in the past. i thought i missed my mom. i though you were a replacement. but in reality you were a blessing to make up for the terrible things sarah had done to us. so if you don't mind, i missed you mom.

tears filled her eyes. she wrapped her arms around you.

Syd (mom) | i love you so much y/n.

payton comes up and he holds his hand out to shake your dads hand. your dad hugs payton. payton hugs him back.

dad | thank you for bringing my baby home.

P | i had to. i couldn't leave her there.

dad | i'm so glad y/n picked such a thoughtful boy like you.

P | thank you sir.

you all head inside. you go up to a room you had made into a nursery/playroom for Austyn. Hailey and her husband leave her with you and payton for a few hours while they go out on a date. you look over at payton playing with Austyn and it makes you smile. it assures you that that's the boy you love. the boy you want to spend the rest of your life with. the boy you want to raise a family with. you sit closer to him with your arms around his chest. you lay your head on his shoulder while he played with the baby. you were so happy in this house. your life was so perfect. you love it. your father calls you downstairs. you pick up Austyn and carry her downstairs.

dad | do you want to go out for a nice dinner tonight just me you payton and you mother.

y/n | yes that would be great.

P | yes thank you sir.

dad | okay we will leave after Hailey and Brad come home.

y/n | sounds great.

you and payton put Austyn to sleep. you sit on the couch in the nursery while she sleeps. you lay in payton's arms. he plays with your hair.

P | i love you.

y/n | i love you more baby.

P | you know i would do anything for you.

y/n | yes.

P | because i love you.

you smile and he puts his phone down and puts his hands on your stomach. you look up at him. he kisses your forehead and smiles back down at you. you lay your head on his chest and fall asleep.

i'm in love with this relationship 🥺🤍🤧
