(Another really short chapter, I'm so sorry.)

Sophia's point of view

When I woke up, I was still in Luke's arms and he was sleep. I hummed and then slowly, and carefully, got out of his grip. I rubbed my eyes and then went to my bedroom.

I stripped out of the clothes I had on while I was at school and kicked them away. I threw on a long sleeve I stole from one of the guys and then pulled on some short shorts. When I finished, I put my hair in a bun and then went downstairs with my phone in my bra.

I went to the kitchen and then put some water in the kettle. When it was full enough, I put it on the stove and turned it on. I grabbed a mug and then a box of tea bags.

I took one out and set it in the mug. I yawned and then a phone was going off. It was Calum's phone. I knew his ringtone.

"Hey Calum, we need to have a meeting about when you're taking Sophia back to the adoption center. I know your asleep but call me back when you can."

The phone call ended and I felt as if my heart was ripped from my chest. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I couldn't get worked up again.

You knew this was coming.

I sighed and then leaned against the counter as I waited for my water to bowl. I pulled my phone out and typed in Calum's birthday because it was my pin.

I went on my Twitter and it was literally full of me and Makenna. There were photos of us at the mall and then us at the carnival. There were some of us making out and then there were the ones off of that strip of photos.

Then, there were photos of me and other people. There was me and Kevin and then there was me pictutes of me and some other girls that I took pictures with before.

All the captions read that there was something going on between us. It was pretty bad, especially when the ones of me and Kevin were edited to look like we were dating.

The last photo I saw was of me and Makenna making out in front of out houses and I grit my teeth. I threw my phone at the wall and then ran a hand through my hair.

The kettle went off and I turned it off as soon as I heard it whistling. I poured some in my mug and then set the tea bag in it. I left it in there as bit and once it finished, I threw the bag away and went to the dining table.

I sat down and then took a sip of the hot liquid. I set the cap down and then put my head down. I couldn't help the tears that filled my eyes as I kept my eyes down.

So many things were going wrong. First I'm going to be going back to that adoption center soon and there are so many pictures of me and someone that makes it look like we're dating. Then I have Derrick on my ass all the time at school and Makenna would be mad because those photos did leak.

I lifted my head up and clasped my hands together as I looked down at the table. A tear fell on the table and I grabbed my mug. I took a really quick sip and then set it down.

"Ashton? Are you o-Sophia?" I heard a shocked voice. "Was that you who made that loud noise? What was that?"

"My phone hitting the wall." I said without any emotion in my voice. I took another drink and I felt a hand on my back.

"What's wrong?" Michael asked me and I turned to look at him. "You can talk to me." He told me and I looked at him with watery eyes.

"Everything." I said and my vision blurred. "I-I... My whole life is messed up Michael. Every bit of it."

"Sweetheart, what do you mean? We're trying our best-"

"I'm living with four teenagers who were forced to adopt me and are going to have to give me back." I said and looked at the table. "I'm more into girls instead of boys and I-I grew up without a dad. I dress exactly like a guy and-and my heart isn't strong enough for me. It's all so fucked up Michael. Every bit of it, down to the fact I feel as if straightening my hair everyday makes me look better."

By the time I finished, I was sobbing. He wrapped his arms around me and I cried into his shirt. "Your-Your boss called and-and said you have a meeting for when-when you're gonna take me back."

"That's not going to happen princess. I promise. We're not taking you back there okay? You're not leaving us. You're our little girl now okay?" He told me and he tightened his grip on me.

He held me a little longer and then he hummed, singing an Eminem song to me. I buried my head in his chest and he rubbed my back.

"Hush little baby don't you cry, everything's gonna be alright, stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told you, daddy's here to hold you through the night." He sang and I closed my eyes.

Suddenly, a new voice joined in, skipping the next part, and I felt another pair of arms around me. It was Calum. I knew his cologne anywhere. I knew his voice anywhere.

"And if you ask me too, daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird, I'ma give you the world, I'ma buy a diamond ring for you, I'ma sing for you, I'll do anything for you to see you smile." He sang and I sniffled.

"And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine, I'ma break that birdy's neck, I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to you, and they'd give me every karat, don't fuck with dad." They both sang together and I just sniffled again.

"We love you princess." Michael hummed. "Don't think for a second we'll take you back. We need you with us way more than you think. We need you more than you need us." He told me.

"Come here darling," Calum said and Michael let go of me. I leaned into Calum's touch and he wrapped his arms around me. He pressed a kiss to my forehead and I sniffled.

"I love you guys so much," I cried and he rubbed my back calmingly. "I love you daddy." I said and Calum chuckled.

"I love you too baby." He said and he let go of me. I went to Michael again and gave him a hug.

"I love you to dad." I said and he chuckled. "I love you both so much." I told them. Daddy and dad. Well, it's better than father... father is to formal.

As long as you don't think wrong 'daddy' is fine. Or, as long as I don't remember things, then it's fine.

"I love you too princess, to the moon and back." He said and I was squished in a hug between the two.

"We love you." Calum said and I nodded. "Now, mind explaining why your phone is in two pieces and why the battery is like four feet away from it?"

"Let's talk about that later babe," Michael said. "How about us three go out to the beach or something? Just us three?" He asked and Calum agreed.

"Okay." I said quietly and he looked at me. "Can I-Can I finish my tea first and then maybe take a nap?" I asked and he nodded. I took a seat as the dining table again and then grabbed my mug.

"How about we go out for breakfast later too? Might as well." Calum pitched and Michael nodded. "You can skip school tomorrow sweetie. It's just going to be us three, all day." He said and I nodded as I took a drink of my tea.

"I'm sorry for breaking my phone. I-I got upset and didn't know what I was thinking." I said and looked at them.

"It's fine, we had a one year warranty on it anyways. We can exchange it." Michael told me and I nodded. "On to more important business, is that my black shirt?"

"Maybe." I said and set my mug down he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me off of the chair. I laughed and we rolled around on the floor as he tickled me.

"Michael!" I laughed out and covered my sides. "Stop it!" I said and looked at Calum for help.

"Sorry," he said and went to tickle me aswell. "That's what you get for taking our shirts." He said and I laughed even more as I leaned forward.

"Say that Michael and Calum are the best parents ever and I love them so much." Michael said.

"Hey, why does your name go first?" Calum whined and Michael slowly stopped tickling me as they talked.

"Because she has my last name."

"So? Why can't my name go first since she has your last name?" Calum asked and I escaped from Michael's grip.

"Hey!" The two said together and stood up. I squealed and then ran up the stairs and into my room. I closed the door and then jumped into my bed, pulling the covers over me.

"Oh, where did she go?" Michael asked and then suddenly, a body was on top of me. "Oops, I fell." He said and I laughed loudly and I tried pushing him off.

I pulled the blanket from over my face and he wrapped his arms around me, cuddling me. "Mm, I love you." He said and Calum got in my bed too.

"I love you too." He said and I laughed as they smothered me in cuddles and weird voiced 'I love you's.

I yawned and then all of a sudden, I heard Luke's voice very loudly. "No fucking way am I going to be a father. I'm eighteen." He sounded pissed and nervous.

"No, I fucking wore a condom. I know I did. The taste of of the wrapper is still in my mouth." He said and then scoffed. "And you think I'm ready? Jesus, I have this career and we can't have a baby with us."

"Luke is screwed guys. He got a girl pregnant." I said and then we heard Ashton voice.

"It's four fucking am. If you don't shut the fuck up, I'll turn you all into the next fucking human centipede." Before I could yell back, he spoke up. "Besides Sophia. None of your mouths are going near her butt and your butts aren't going near her face."

"Ha ha bitches."

"I'll just sew her lips together."

"Ha ha," Calum said and I laughed quietly. "Now, go to sleep darling. We'll wake you up when it's time. If not... Ashton will wake us up so we don't sleep in."

I nodded and laughed softly as I cuddled into Michael. Calum scooted closer and threw his arm over me just like Michael did. He yawned and then so did Michael.

"No no no, Kaitlyn, don't do that. Um, I'll swing by tomorrow. Don't get an abortion. That's.... Just no. I'll be there tomorrow. It's okay." Luke said.

"We're so screwed." Michael mumbled and I agreed. "Fuck Luke."

"No, fuck me." Calum said and I groaned in disgust. "Sorry sweetheart." He said and I told them to save it until they're alone.

"Oh, we will."
