Fourth of July

"No! I don't. I did not kiss you." Brandon shook his head. "Shut up, Maddie."

"It's supposed to, Ajay." He smirked and put him down. "Still like me?"

Maddie's smile...turned into a frown. "...okay."

"Mhm, I like you." Ajay nodded as he hugged Colt around his neck.

"I like you too, bud." Scott chuckled as he hugged him back.

"Daddy, I wanna go home." Brandon frowned. He just broke Madison's heart, and he's got the nerve to be mad. lol

Ajay let out a small yawn and rested his head on Colt's shoulder. "I sleepy Scotty."

"Why? I thought you were having fun?" he asked Brandon.

"Brandon is so mean." Maddie said as she started to cry and went by Ellie, who hugged her.

Brandon simply pointed at Madison by way of explanation.

"Are you? Well, we can go. Lets tell Mommy." He got up with him and went over to Ellie.

Punk looked over at a crying Madison, who was being consoled by Ellie. "What did she do to you?"

Ellie rubbed Maddie's back. "Don't cry Maddie, he didn't mean it." she said as she kissed the side of her head.

"He hate me forever." she sniffled.

Ellie was a little amused at how it all happened, but still...her poor baby, lol. She saw Colt and Ajay coming towards her. "Hey guys."

"She said I kissed her." He blanched. "She's just being a stupid crybaby girl, like Ally. I wanna go."

"Ajay says he's tired." Scott told her, and frowned when he saw Madison. "What's wrong, cutie?"

Punk smirked a bit and nodded. "We'll go."

Ellie nodded and stood up, holding Maddie. Maddie pouted and looked at Colt. "Brandon hates me. He kissed me and then he told me to shut up and now he hate me foreverrrrrr."

"Aw, don't cry." He smoothed Madison's hair back, grinning. "He doesn't hate you. B, you kissed Madison?"

"NO!" Brandon stomped his foot. "Quit lyin' Maddie, geez!"

Madison glared at him. "No, you stop lying! You kiss me on the cheek!" she said as she pointed at him.

Punk looked at Brandon. "Just say sorry and we will go."

"Mhm, to his future wife." Ellie teased Punk.

Punk snorted. "We will never be related."

"Say sorry for what?! Sorry that you're a big stupid CRYBABY." Brandon scowled.

"Hey hey now," Scott interjected. "That's no way to treat a pretty lady."

"She's not a pretty lady, she's a dumb girl." Brandon scoffed. "That I did NOT kiss."

"What a charmer." Scott snorted. "Isn't this how you and Lacy started, Punk? Arguing?" He smirked.

"We sure did." he nodded. "Then I won her heart." he smirked.

"You're stupid Brandon." Maddie said as she crossed her arms across her chest. "BIG HEADED STUPID BOY."

"Hey, knock it off." Ellie said.

"YOU'RE UGLY!" Brandon stomped his foot before stomping off.

"I guess you should go get him." Scott chuckled a little. He couldn't help but find this funny.

"NO YOU'RE UGLY AND YOU SMELL TOO!" Maddie said as she crossed her arms across her chest and stomped as well.

Punk snorted. "I shall. Brandon, wait up." he said as he went to catch up with him.

"She is so stupid, Daddy!" Brandon ranted as he walked to the car.

"You two always fight." he snorted.

"Because she lies. I would NEVER kiss her!"

"Well...maybe she's going crazy." he said...even though he saw Brandon kiss her on the cheek, lol.

"Crazy." He agreed. "With her stupid blue eyes, her stupid yellow hair, and her stupid pretty smile... I mean UGLY smile." Brandon sighed, exasperated.

He smirked a bit and opened the car door for him. "I wonder why she thought you kissed her."

"She wants me to be her boyfriend or something." Brandon rolled his eyes and climbed into the car, getting into his car seat.

Scott rubbed Madison's back to comfort her. "You alright, cutie?"

Punk went to buckle him in. "That's not a bad thing."

-

"After I beat up Brandon, I will be." Maddie nodded. "He hurt my feelings." she pouted. "He's not coming to my birthday party...okay Mommy?"

"Uh...well that's rude." she chuckled a bit as she kissed her forehead. "But just stay away from him on that day."

"That's gross, Daddy." Brandon shook his head as he let him strap him in.

--

"You wouldn't like it if he had a birthday party and you couldn't go." Scott shook his head. "I think Brandon likes you, but he doesn't know how to say it, so he's mean. I mean, come on. You're a cutie, who wouldn't like you?" He asked, trying to cheer her up.

He chuckled. "It's not that gross."

-

"...Brandon." she sulked. "I like him and I'm always nice to him." she pouted. "He's a dumdum."

"It's only not gross with you and Mommy, 'cause you are s'posed to kiss and stuff like that." Brandon frowned.

"You like Brandon? Like... really like him?"
