|Y/N's POV|

i sighed as i walked through the front door of my apartment. i saw Grayson sitting at the kitchen table trying to pay the bills and didn't see Aaron so he must not have gotten home yet. "hey love, did you have a good day?" Gray asked as he pecked my lips.

"it was okay, just busy." he nodded his head and i stood behind him as his credit card kept getting declined. "it's not working." he mumbled as he tried again. "let me try." he handed me the card and i typed it slowly to make sure i got the number right and double checked it before hitting enter.

it declined it again and i looked down at Grayson. "we don't have enough money to pay the bills." he ran his hands through hair and i could tell he was frustrated. "hey, calm down. i'll pick up some extra shifts and hopefully make enough to cover everything." he shook his head no.

"you already work so hard. i'll see what i can find but i don't want you getting anymore shifts. i promise i'll find a way." i nodded my head and kissed him before walking to our bedroom.

|Aaron's POV|
"we don't have enough money to pay the bills." i heard my dad say as soon as i walked in from school. "hey, calm down. i'll pick up some extra shifts and hopefully make enough to cover everything." my mom said calmly.

i knew we were having money problems but i didn't know it was this bad. i ran to my room and pulled my phone out of my pocket.

jobs near me

i typed into google. a bunch of ideas popped up but they were adult jobs like doctors, and dentists. i came across one that said, Yard Work

i tapped on it and a bunch of things that i could do popped up.

mowing grass
shoveling snow (winter)
weed cutting
gutter cleaning
bush trimming
repainting houses

all for 450$ a week.

i typed my name and age into it and it said i started tomorrow and gave me the address of the home. i'm pretty sure the rent is 950 a month and we still have 3 weeks.

so if i work hard enough, i should have 1,350 to give to my parents.

"it looks good, thank you so much." the old lady whose yard i just mowed for 2 hours in 90° weather said. i smiled and wiped the sweat from my forehead. "you're welcome." i walked back to my skateboard and skated home. i told my parents i had a project to work on for the next few weeks so they wouldn't suspect anything.

"hey baby." mom said as i walked through the door. dad was at the table like usual, trying to find a job. "hey squirt." dad messed my hair up. "dad." i groaned. he chuckled and i fixed my hair back to how it was.

"how did your project go?" mom asked. "good." she nodded her head and put a sand which in front of me. "thanks." i ate the sand which and the glass of water before going to my room to start on my actual homework.

~ 3 weeks later.

"mom? dad?" i asked as i walked into their bedroom. they were both still sleeping since i rode the bus to school and they were exhausted from staying up last night, trying anything they could to get enough money but were still short.

i sighed and put the money i earned on mom's nightstand right by her phone so she'd see it when she woke up. i made an extra 50 so that gives them 1,400$ to pay for everything.

i grabbed my back pack before walking out to the bus and going to school.

|Y/N's POV|
i woke up and saw Grayson was still sleeping peacefully. i smiled and kissed his forehead before remembering we didn't have enough money to pay for rent. i knew we were going to get evicted if we didn't give the money to the landlord i looked over the nightstand to grab my phone.

i felt something when i reached over that made me stand up. wads and wads of hundred dollar bills sat there, making my eyes widened. it was more then enough to pay for rent and get groceries for this week.

i quickly woke Grayson up and he groaned. "Grayson, did you put this money here!?" i asked. he sat up and his eyes widened at all the money in my hand. "no, did you?"

"no, i'm not su- Aaron." i whispered the last part. "babe, Aaron's 14. how would he be able to make that much money in only a few weeks?" he asked.

"it had to be him. he must've overheard us talking and went to find him a job. that's why he hasn't been home after school for the past 3 weeks and that's why he comes home sweating." i said, realizing it all made sense.

"MOM, DAD! I'M BACK!" Aaron yelled as he walked into the living room where we were at. he looked at us confused since we were standing up in front of the couch.

"we need to talk to you." he slowly sat his backpack down and sat on the couch. "i promise i didn't eat the last slice of pizza!" he said fast, making me and Grayson chuckle.

"that's not why we want to talk to you. do you know why there was cash sitting on your moms nightstand?" his face turned red and he looked down.

"i just wanted to help out, i heard you guys talking and i figured if i worked a little, it would be enough to pay for rent." he explained.

"Aaron, we're the parents, you're supposed to go out and have fun, not have to worry about bills. i'm so proud of you but you can't do this anymore. we'll use it for rent and then you can keep the remainder of the money to buy the new phone you wanted." his lips curved into a smile and he hugged both of us.

"thank you." i smiled and kissed his cheek. "but
promise you won't ever do this again."

"promise." Grayson ruffled his hair and let him go to his room. "we raised him right." Grayson said as we both sat on the couch. "we did didn't we."
