"so" morgan said, the family was all sat around the table and we had not long started dinner "i have something i would like to say"

"yeh what's up?" mom asked

"i'm moving to california" morgan said, a smile was placed onto his lips and you could tell he was super excited

"no you're not" dad straight away replied

"i am, ive got an apartment, i'm moving next month, everything's sorted" morgan returned

"you're not moving half way across the country" dad said, raising his voice slightly

"i'm eighteen, i can do what i want" morgan responded, he looked up at mum who was looking at dad

"with what money?" mum asked

"i've had a job since i was thirteen mum, i have a bunch of money saved" he replied, giving her a questioning look

"oh right" mum muttered

"you're still not moving to california" dad said

"i'm doing what i want" morgan steadily replied, i had never seen morgan so happy and excited, and i had especially never seen him stand up to my dad, i'm actually rooting for him

"morgan elliot blake-"

"i have news!" finley squirmed holding her hand up, cutting dad off

"and what's that dear?" mom asked

"oh my" thomas mumbled, swallowing hard

"i'm uhm we uhm we're uhhhh umm me and thomas are well uhm expecting" finley stumbled, mums face dropped and dad turned a bright red shade

"what?" dad asked

"you're pregnant?" kayson giggled

"yeh i am" finley smiled back at her

"you're getting rid of it right?" dad asked

"oh wow" i mumbled

"no" finley replied, a questioning look plastered all over her face

"you're about to ruin your life" dad said

"oh wow" i repeated

"dad" morgan said

"you stay out of it" he yelled turning around and looking at morgan

"you two, come with me" i said getting up off of my chair and pulling charlie and karsons chairs out from under the table, the two gladly jumped from their seats and ran towards the stairs, most likely going to their play room

i started making my way towards the stairs when i felt payton wrap a arm around my shoulder, i forgot he was here

"you okay?" he asked, i gave him a small nod and we walked up the stairs

"sorry about that" i mumbled, he pulled me into his chest and looked down at me

"theres nothings to be sorry about reesecy" he smiled, leaving a small kiss on the end of my nose

we walked into the playroom and straight away karson came running towards us "why was daddy shouting at morgan?" she asked

"because he's dumb" i replied, she let out a small giggle and grabbed ahold of paytons hand, dragging him over to the small table placed in the corner of the room

"sit!" she said, payton looked behind him to see a small white chair, he looked back at karson and carefully sat on the chair

karson grabbed a purple tiara off of the table and put it on paytons head

"princess" she laughed, i gave the two a small smile and then went over to charlie who was sat on the floor playing with his action figures

"look reese i got a spider-man one!" he said, showing me the spider-man figure

"wow he's so cool" i replied, taking it from his hand and taking a look at the toy

"i went into your old room the other day and took all your spider-man movies, i watched them all in one night, mum was so mad" he laughed

"my spider-man movies are here? i was looking for them for ages" i mumbled

"please don't take them, i love them" charlie replied

"i won't, i ordered more they're all yours" i said, he gave me a bright smile and then shooed me away

"i'll be okay by myself" he smiled

"oh okay" i replied

"you go check on finley" he said

"i will do bud" i smiled

i walked back over to payton who gave me a small smile, i pointed to the door and he gave me a nod, i then gave him a small smile back and made my way back down stairs and into the dinning room

"finley, you are twenty years old you're ruining your life and your looks for a baby?" mum asked

"mum just leave her alone!" morgan exclaimed

"weren't you eighteen when you had fin?" i asked, joining back into the conversation, everyone looked up at me and finley gave me a small smile

"yes and that's why she's telling her, it was your moms, well our biggest regret" dad said making the whole room fall silent

"california can't come any sooner" morgan mumbled

"glad you feel that way, thomas we're leaving" finley said standing up and looking down at thomas, she grabbed ahold of his hand and the two took a look at me

"re?" she questioned

"i'll be out in a bit" i said, she gave me a nod and her and thomas left the room

"fuck you both" i said to both my parents "seriously, i really fucking hoped you'd be happy for her but seriously fuck you both" i said

morgan got up from his seat and walked over to me, he placed his hands on my shoulder and pushed me out of the room

"no i'm not finished" i said trying to pull away from his grip

"yes you are keep walking" he said, i let out a scoff and walked out of the dining room

"can we please take morgan, karson and charlie home with us?" i asked looking up at fin

"reese and payton will be in her room, karson and charlie in the guest room and i'll go on the couch, please fin" morgan said

"i'll look after them, you don't have to move a finger" i quickly said

"what she said" morgan smiled

"i can't just take the kids" finley said

"we've been in there boots before fin, you'll know what will happen if we don't take them" i replied, she let out a sigh and looked over at thomas, he gave her a small nod making the two look at morgan

"mum, can karson and charlie stay at reeses?" morgan asked, walking back into the dining room

"yes" mom replied, not even giving dad the chance to speak

"thank you" he said before entering the room

"fine" finley mumbled

"thank you fin" i smiled before pulling her into a hug, she let out a small grunt and hugged me back

"you're making breakfast in the morning" she said

"deal" i replied
