A/N: FOR THOSE OF YOU YOU HAVE NOT READ BOOK ONE, LIFE WITH THE LYNCHES, YOU REALLY SHOULD GO READ IT BEFORE YOU READ THIS. JUST A HEADS UP.

RILEY'S POV

I turned over and saw that Chris was cuddled into me and mom was waking up a younger girl sleeping on Chris' bed. "Bethany, wake up" mom whispered. I shook Chris. "What's going on? W-what did I miss" I ask. All I could remember was partying and seeing.. Seeing her. The snake woman. Again.

"Riley, you had a nightmare so I came over to cuddle with you. And this is my little sister Bethany. She came to umm.." She looked like she was gonna cry. "She's here to say goodbye. My parents are moving to Chicago". I felt sorry for her so I gave her a big hug. "Girls, I made pancakes for you downstairs. Bethany you're welcome to take some in the car with your parents" mom exclaimed.

Bethany didnt look very old. Maybe about 6-7. She had no idea about Chris or why she was never at home. I don't even know if she knows she's been kicked out of the house. I think she just thinks she's going on a vacation. I feel bad for Bethany when she grows up. When she has to find out about Chris. She'll be devastated. I'd be devastated if mom kicked Rydel out of the house when we were young. I miss Rydel being here.

RIKERS POV

that's it. I have to tell him. It'll break his heart but it's not entirely my fault. See, I'm bi like Ross. I still have feelings for a girl. She's beautiful and I love her and I haven't been entirely honest with Ross I've been seeing her for 3 weeks. Her name is Allison. She's my dance partner on dancing with the stars (she's not married and she doesn't have a kid in this book). She has dirty blonde curly hair and she's an amazing dancer.

I go up to Ross who is lying down on his bed. I have to be honest with him. "Hey Ross". He shot up from his bed. "Hey Rikey" he came to give me a hug. But I brushed him off. "Listen, I'm bi. A-and I've been seeing Allison for 3 weeks now. And I've realized what I wanted in life. Ross, I wanna have a kid and grow up and get married. "Riker, we can get married and adopt". "I wanna have my own blood-related child. Plus, Ross the feelings I once had for you.. Faded".

"Riker, I thought you cared about me" he said getting a little teary eyed. "Well, you thought wrong" I said and stormed out getting a little annoyed. I mean, I know we were dating and all but he's my brother and he should understand that what I want for my future, he should encourage me to do so. Not get upset.

RILEY'S POV

I heard Ross and Riker fighting from across the hall so I took Chrissy by the hand and dragged her downstairs. I didn't feel like eating our pancakes here so I put our pancakes in a container and we walked over to Rydels house. We walked into her nicely decorated porch and took our shoes off and went up the stairs. We saw Rydel, Ellington, Ryland, Ellie and Reghan eating in the dining room and Ellie was in her high hair.

"What are you guys doing here?" Ellington asked. "Riker and Ross were fighting". "What about?" Rydel asked. "Stuff about Riker being bi and he wants to get married and have kids with Allison" I answered. I took my pancakes and sat next to Reghan and Chris sat beside me. "So any updates on Sav?" I ask Ryland. "Yeah. She wants to keep the baby. But we might get a house together so I can take care of her". "Ryland you're gonna be an awesome father". He smiled.

***TIME SKIP 3 YEARS***

I am 17 years old. Ellie is 3 years old. Savannah had the baby. It's a boy named Michael. He is 2 years old. Riker got Allison pregnant and now she's in the hospital and we're going there now. I can tell Riker is excited. Rocky is dating a guy named Cameron. I haven't met him yet. And as for Ross..

Ross hasn't been doing so well. He never goes to his classes. He's always in his room. R5 still never gave up. The only thing keeping Ross alive is music and R5. He could never give it up. In fact we're going on tour next year. And Chris gets to come. It's always a full bus so we use the back (which is the living room and me, Chris and Reghan sleep in sleeping bags. R5 and Allison sleep in their bunks, Ellie sleeps with Rydel and Michael sleeps on Brandon and Savannahs bus.

We get to the hospital and walk in and go to Allison's room. There they are holding two adorable babies. "What's their names?" I asked. "This one is Aiden" Allison said. "And this one is Remi" Riker said. Mom was filming every second of it with tears in her eyes. So lets see, how many cousins do I have? Approximately 14 give or take a few cousins.

"Can I hold her?" I asked Riker. He placed her gently in my arms as if she was a porcelain doll. She was so beautiful. "You're gonna grow up to be amazing" I whispered to her. Just then, Michael and Ellie walked into the room with Ellington. "These are your new cousins" I knelt down and said to them. Michael petted her head and Ellie gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Come here" Allison said to them. I helped Michael up on the bed and Ellington helped Ellie. They both looked like they just saw an angel. I passed Remi over to Reghan. Reghan was excited to have a new cousin too.

I knew Riker was gonna be so overprotective of Remi. Seriously the most overprotective. You should see him around me and Rydel. I hope Remi learns to cope with his overprotectiveness.
