Stressed Payton Moormeier bromance

Chapter 18

Griffin's Pov: Payton has been fast asleep for awhile now and we are almost to the hotel.

"He's so cute" Tayler whispers softly gently stroking Payton's hair

"Mmm he is and you know what" I ask

"What" he questions

"He called me daddy first" I say with a smirk

"That's not fair you called yourself daddy" he whispers yells glaring at me

"You can be mommy" I tease with a smirk

The bus pulls up in front of the hotel I collect mine and Tayler's things from the floor around us as he stands with Payton

"Need help" Bryce asks moving back to us he's holding his and Payton's backpack

"I'll get Payton's suitcase and you get Taylers" I tell him as we walk off the bus

Payton looks so small compared to Tayler he looks like a koala cuddled to Tayler's chest. 

Looking around at the other boys I see a giggling Chase happily following Noen a skip in his step. Kevin is holding a sleepy looking Sams hand as they follow behind Harrison.

We head up to our rooms with the rest of the boys, once we are up to my room I let Tayler and Bryce in.

When Tayler tries to lay Payton down the small boy starts to wake up.

"Sh sh you can sleep baby" Tayler tries to soothe

But Payton whines and reaches to grab at Tayler. Latched on to Taylers wrist he tugs gently and so Tayler sits next to the small boy.

"Daddy stay"Payton whimpers

"Oh that's new" Bryce mumbles

I just glance at him then back to Tayler he gently soothes Payton petting his hair whispering to the boy so I can't hear.

He slips Payton's paci back in his mouth and hums softly for a few minutes before soft snores can be heard from Payton.

"So daddy huh" Bryce asks as Tayler moves over to us

"We're gonna be his caregivers" I tell him

"Double daddies" Bryce laughs making his way to the door

Tayler grabs his stuff to follow after him

"Don't leave him alone okay he's really worked up" Tayler tells me

"Don't worry I can handle the little guy" I tell him as he leaves

While Payton sleeps I shower I make sure to leave the bathroom door partially open to hear him in case he wakes up. But he doesn't he sleeps for about an hour and a half before slowly waking up.

I don't wait for him to notice me before I speak.

"Hey baby did you have a good nap" I ask sitting on the edge of the bed next to him

I blink his eyes slowly before realizing I was speaking to him

"Daddy" he slurs behind his paci sitting up slightly

"Yep that's me buddy" I laugh smiling down at him helping him sit up all the way

Payton looks around the room curiously for a minute he looks confused
