Request from @the-morning-star-falls
on Tumblr. The reader tells Rip she's pregnant with his baby.

Rubbing the sleep from my eyes I climbed out of my bed in the Bunkhouse. Last night I barely got any sleep from harsh cramping. Running a hand through my hair I pick up my light brown hat heading outside to see the Bunkhouse cowboys training horses in the fence area. "I thought you'd sleep the whole day away Y/n." Beth's voice makes me glance over my shoulder seeing her drinking a bottle of alchohol. "Just wasn't feeling good. I missed my period about 2 weeks ago."

She grabs my wrist dragging me into the house finding a pregnancy test. I do the test now sitting on her bed waiting for the results. "Who was the last person you slept with?" She blurts out in question. Blushing I stutter out remembering our late night in the barn after everyone else went to bed. "R - Rip." She picked up the test smiling at me. "You're pregnant Y/n."

I throw my head in my hands crying and feeling her rub my back. "Hey, it's going to okay." Lifting my head I shake it no still crying. "No Beth it isn't. Rip doesn't even like dogs. How the hell do you think he'll deal with the fact I'm pregnant and it's his." Beth brushes hair from my face lightly smiling. "He cares about you. I think you're underestimating him. He's always been kind to you and he's willing to do anything for you. He has fierce loyalty for two people in this world, my father and you. So I say put you're trust in him."

Without a doubt Beth's right about Rip. He's all tough around the boys. But becomes a softie to me, like a big teddy bear. Making me laugh. Flirting even know we both know that we own the others heart. The only other concern of what he'll say is what will John Dutton do to me. I can't work his ranch if I'm pregnant. "Beth, what about your dad?" She waved her hand pushing me outside to the barn with the big V shape. "I'll handle him. Go tell your lover the news."

Slowly I enter the barn standing in the doorway. Rip looks up from brushing a horse's fur a smile appears on his lips. "How,'d darlin. I let you sleep in since you had trouble last night." I tuck a piece of my hair behind my ear taking a few steps towards him. "Baby I have something to tell you." He closes the gap between us, lifting my chin to stare into his brown eyes. "What is it Y/n?"

"I - I - I'm pregnant. This child is yours..." I stuttered out clutching my eyes closed waiting for him to storm out. Instead I feel his arms pull me in for a loving hug. Still in shock I slowly wrapped my arms around his neck questioning. "You're not mad about it?" He slightly pulled away kissing my lips slowly. "Y/n I love you. This baby is half of you so I'll love it no matter what." I feel a weight falling from my shoulders at I pull his lips to mine deepening the kiss running my hands up his Yellowstone branded jacket.

We break for air for me to see a hint of worry in his eyes. "Rip, what's wrong?" He looks to the ground voicing. "What if I'm like my father. I don't want to be like he was?" Resting my right hand to his cheek I make him look me in the eye. "You won't be. I don't believe you could if you tried. You've never hurt me and I can't believe you have it in you to be cruel to any child of ours."

"Thank you Y/n. That makes me feel a lot better." Rip sighs in relief planting a kiss to my forehead. His arms go around my waist pulling me to his chest m, kissing my lips slowly with love. "I love you and I'll love this child with all I've got." A huge grin masks my face. I kissed his lips wrapping my arms around his neck and laying my head on his chest. "I love you too, Rip Wheeler. Always have and always will." Beth was right all along. I had nothing to worry about in the first place.
