*Rocky's POV*

What is wrong with me? I should be happy for Lexi! Why does it feel like I've been replaced? I was so annoyed at myself that I didn't notice Skye follow me into mine and Zuma's bedroom. She cleared her throat behind me.
"Christ Skye! Don't do that to me!" I jumped.
"Rocky what's going on?" She demanded.
"I don't know what you're talking about." I bluffed.
"Don't give me that! You should be happy for Lexi."
"I am."
"Well you're not acting like it."
"Leave it Skye it's none of your business!" I growled.
"Rocky you're gonna talk to me whether you like it or not. We can do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way." She glared at me, clearly not backing down. I tried to stare her down but she wouldn't budge. I sighed in defeat and sat down.
"I don't want them to get married." I muttered.
"Why?"
"Because he's replacing me! Have you seen how happy he makes her? That used to be me making her smile like that!" I cried, tears effortlessly falling down my face.
"You think he's replacing you?"
"No Skye, I know it."
"Rocky I can tell you now Lexi can and will never try to replace you. You know how I know? It's exactly the same as me, Chase and Blue. I have to be a mate and a mother, not treating either one as more important. Lexi is doing the same."
"It's different for you because Blue sees you as his mother and you guys see him as your pup."
"So you don't see Lexi as your mother?" The cockapoo challenged.
"Well yes,"
"And does she see you as her son?"
"I guess..."
"So tell me how it's different." I stayed silent. She had a point. "Rocky she is your mother and like it or not, that kinda makes Austin your stepfather. If you need reassurance, talk to Lexi. Please." She pleaded. I looked at her as she stood up, ready to go back to the others.
"Skye," she turned to face me again. "Thanks."
"It's ok Rocky. We're all here if you need us." And with that she turned and left.
I glanced down at the locket attached to my collar and opened it, looking at the photo of me and my sister. I really missed her. I thought about what Skye had said, she sounded exactly like Aiyana.
"Oh who am I kidding?" I sighed, talking to the photo. "You're both right."
