Here's To Forever

Five

Riley

This shouldn't be happening right now, it isn't our time, it isn't the right time, we are meant to be getting married first
My parents also grew me up learning you don't do this until your married
I don't even know what James' opinion on all of this.. 
Yet these two pink lines are sealing my fate right now

"Babe, everything okay?" James asked knocking on the bathroom door, I couldn't tell him.. not yet
"Yeah er I'm coming" I replied putting the test somewhere James wouldn't ever look
Our kids went to the Regional Qualifier last month and passed with flying colours, now we are working on regionals, they all work together extremely well minus a few bickers here and there
It is nothing compared to how our old troupe used to be with E-girls and all of that

"You ready to go?" James asked as he stood by the front door
"yeah" I replied walking out with him
In the car he was doing his usual humming with a drum on the steering wheel, I glanced back to see the empty back seats. Could we really bring a baby into this world?
"James" I asked earning a hmm from him
"Did you ever want kids?" I asked making him look at me and chuckle
"Yeah of course I do, I have no idea when thought" He said. I sighed knowing it could be a lot sooner then he had hoped
"how many?" I asked biting my lip
"I don't know 2 or 3 maybe, why? Is something up?" He asked and I shook my head
"We just haven't spoken about it, that's all" I muttered back and he was none the wiser

James

Walking into Studio A it was quite refreshing to see everyone already there stretching, we had a minor set back when we won the qualifier. Some of our Troupe's got cocky and I had to wind them back in a little
It's all good having confidence but when you get overly cocky is when you mess up and we don't have room for that on the troupe
"alright gang! I'm gonna leave you in the hands of your dance captain Harry to run this rehearsal, if you need anything then you know where Riley and I are" I said before leaving the kids to run there own course
I like this bunch of kids, there are a few in there who are loudmouths just like West Eldon and I were and there are a few others who keep them in check like Emily, Michelle and Riley did. I love that I can see that in these kids
I walked into the office expecting to see Riley but to my surprise she wasn't there
"Yo Hope, you seen Riles?" I asked looking out of the office to see Hope walking in this direction
"No but I have a question for both of you" She said
"Shoot!" I replied
"With our baby ballet filling up like a ton, would it be something that we could split into two separate classes? I love all my babies but some of them are progressing a lot faster and I think it's holding them back a little" She confessed, I smiled. Hope has been teaching Baby Ballet for the entire time this place has been open, I'd trust her judgment better then my own
"I like the sound of that but let me check with boss lady" I said making her laugh
"Check what with who?" Riley asked coming
"Oh hey babe, glad you could join us" I teased
"What's up Hope" Riley then asked 
"Could I split my baby ballet classes into two" She asked
"Some babies are progressing faster" I finished making Riley look at me then back at Hope
"that shouldn't be a problem but you'll have to find a time the room is free, the room is used by Ben after you most of the time" Riley reminded her
"Thankyou Riley" Hope smiled before leaving
Riley then had the moment to sit down at her desk, she looked like she was stressing over something, but I had no idea what

"What's going on?" I asked Riley after she groaned looking at her Laptop
"Nothing" She muttered to herself, but I wasn't taking that. I took her laptop off of her to see and email from her father
"What's this about?" I asked
"nothing just him being a dick" She groaned taking the laptop back
"Ri, talk to me" I said getting up and going over to her, I turned her chair so she was facing me
"He wants us to move back to Toronto but I've explained to him plenty of times that isn't an option for us" She sighed wrapping her arms around me
"It's okay Ri, he doesn't mean anything by it, he just misses you" I replied and she chuckled
"Shouldn't he have his hands full with Em" She said making me laugh
"Evidently not, maybe we should give him something to keep his hands full too" I winked, Riley instantly bowed her head
"Sore spot?" I asked and she shrugged, okay now I'm even more confused on what on earth is going on

"Riley! James!" Harry said rushing into the room
"Yeah buddy?" I asked turning away from Riley
"Something happened with Jordon" He replied, I looked at Riley and we were both already out of that door
"What happened" Riley yelled as we got over to find Jordon on the floor clutching his ankle
"We were doing flips and tricks" Maisie started
"And I don't think I can do that trick" Jordon answered 
"Evidently not" Riley scoffed
"Oh Jord, that doesn't look good" I answered
"I'll go call his mum" Riley said tapping my back as she walked back to the office
"Does this mean I'm out for the season?" Jordon asked and I shrugged
"I don't know man, It depends on what the doctors say but you have to be honest with Riley and I when you get the results back" I replied, Can't be having another Daniel episode on our hands

"That was Jordon's mum, it's broken.. He won't be back for Regionals" Riley side running her hands through her hair as she got back into bed
"It's okay Ri, Joseph will take his spot until he returns next year" I reminded her, she sighed climbing over to my side of the bed laying on top of me
"you okay?" I asked kissing the top of her head
"Mhm" She replied, I sighed playing with her hair as she slowly drifted of to sleep
I don't know what is going on with Ri, but I'm going to do my best to make sure she isn't alone
