Brady's POV
Inside His Dream
"You thought you'd never see us again huh?" Olivia sneered.
"Go away!!" I yelled.
She smacked me.
"None of them loved you. Not even Addy!!" Lisa laughed.
"They love me!!" I screamed.
"Then why did they give you back up?" Evelyn said.
I looked around. I was back in the orphanage. They did leave me.
"I told you. You're a worthless piece of sh*t." Olivia said and punched my tummy.
I screamed in pain and tired to squirm away, but Lisa picked me up and threw me to the floor. They took turns beating me.
Daddy walked in with Addy.
"Daddy!! Help me!!" I cried.
"Why? I never loved you. I only wanted Addy." he said.
"Yeah. I never loved you either!!!" Addy said with an evil smile.
My heart broke.
They laughed at me while the girls beat me.
"Brady!! Brady wake up!!"
Carter's POV
I woke up to a noise coming from Brady's room. I went into his room to see him moving in his bed.
"Daddy! Help me!!" he cried.
"Brady wake up!!
He kept kicking and crying.
"Brady!! Brady wake up!!" I said, shaking him.
He shot up and opened his eyes. He looked at me and started crying.
"It's ok buddy. It was just a dream." I said, as I picked him up.
"You guys sent me back to the orphange and Daddy and Addy said they didn't love me and Olivia and Lisa and Evelyn came back and they hurt me!!" he cried.
"We would never do that. We all love you. I promise. Olivia, Evelyn, and Lisa are far away and won't hurt you ever again. We all here and we love you and we'll aways protect you." I said, rubbing his back.
He cried into my shoulder as I tried to calm him down. He eventually fell asleep and I laid him down in his bed. I was about to leave when Brady woke up.
"Can you stay with me?" he asked, scared.
"Of course." I said.
I laid down in his bed and we both fell asleep.
The Next Morning
I woke up and Brady was still sleeping. I got out of bed and went to my room. I showered and put on a white and green t-shirt, khaki pants, and green vans. I also added a white and green snapback.
I went downstairs where Cam and Nash were playing Mario Kart and JJ was making waffles. Addy was helping him.
"Hey guys." I said.
They all said hi and Addy ran up to me.
"Hey cutie." I said, picking her up.
She giggled and I smiled. I helped Jack with the food and we ate. Jack, Hayes, and Matt eventually came down, Matt carrying a tired Brady.
"I want Carter." Brady said.
He squirmed out of Matt's arms and ran to me. I set him on my lap as he cuddled into my chest.
"Are you ok?" I asked.
He nodded, but didn't move from my lap. I finished eating and put my dishes away.
"Brady are you hungry?" Cam asked.
He shook his head and ran behind my legs. Cam gave me a weird look, like I told Brady something about him. I shrugged and picked him up.
"What's wrong buddy? I told you it was just a dream." I said.
He didn't say anything, just hid in my chest. I shrugged and sat on the couch.
"Addy, did you finish your fruit?" Cam asked.
"No. I don't want it." she said and pushed her plate away.
She grabbed another waffle but Cam took it out of her hand.
"No more waffles until you eat your fruit." he said.
She whined and climbed off her chair. She climbed onto the couch and started jumping.
"Addy, no jumping on the couch. You know that." Cam said.
She looked at Cam and kept jumping.
If Cam hates one thing, it's being ignored. He picked Addy up and set her in the timeout chair in the corner.
"No means no Addy." he said.
She ran from the chair and up the stairs.
"Addison Nicole Dallas, get back here right now!!" Cam yelled.
He run up the stairs and disappeared. I heard Addy screaming and running. A few minutes later, Cam came down the stairs with Addy over his shoulder, who was kicking, screaming, and punching Cam's back.
"Let me down!!" she yelled.
He set her in the time out chair again, this time, standing in front of her so she couldn't run.
She started crying and whining.
Addy was having one of her "days" where she disobeys Cam and is just cranky. It doesn't happen very often. She'll run from Cam and not listen to him.
"I want Carter!!" she yelled.
Cam gave me a nasty look. I have no clue why BOTH kids want me.
After a while, he finally let Addy out if the chair and she ran to me. She cried into my shoulder and Cam glared at me. He ran up to his room and disappeared. All the guys looked at me and shrugged. Nash ran up after him.
Cam's POV
I hate when Addy gets like this. She acts like a total brat and not the sweet little girl I know. She won't listen and it's hard to discipline her. Plus, both kids ran to Carter. Brady usually wants me to carry him in the morning.
I feel like the kids like Carter more now that they know he's their brother. It hurts me. I'm their father. Well, adoptive father, but still.
I glared at Carter and ran up to my room. I slammed the door, locked it, and laid on my bed.
"Cam? Bro, open up." It was Nash.
"I'm not in the mood." I yelled back.
I didn't hear a response so I guess he left.
I looked at my nightstand and grabbed the picture frame sitting on it. It was a picture of the twins and I when I adopted them. They were so little then. I remember how happy I was that day. And, how happy the kids were.
I smiled and just looked at the picture. I eventually fell asleep.
