**3 MONTHS LATER**
Suzanne was away on a job and was so worried about leaving me alone, but I convinced her Ryder was my son and I would be fine and able to take care of him alone.
I was sitting on the couch folding some laundry as Ryder laid on a blanket on the floor with his hanging toys hanging above him and he was reaching for them and just making baby noises. I could watch him all day.
There was a knock on the door and I was confused by who it could be. I could see Ryder from the front door and I opened it to see two people standing there with tons of gifts in their hands.
"Are you Mavis?" The lady asked and I knew I had seen them before.
"Yes..." I said. They both smiled.
"We are Linda and Marcus Hansen...Lloyd's parents." Marcus said and I sighed realizing who they were. I smiled.
"Oh yes, Mr. and Mrs. Hansen. Come in please." I said moving off to the side and they walked in. We walked into the living room and they saw Ryder on the floor.
"Is that him? Lloyds son?" Marcus asked seeing Ryder.
"My son." I corrected them as I moved the laundry from the couch. Marcus just glared at me and it was a Lloyd glare. It must be a family thing.
"Can I hold him?" Linda asked and I smiled.
"Of course." I said. She walked over and picked him up. She then walked to the couch and smiled as she held him.
"He is 3 months old right?" Linda asked and I nodded.
"As of yesterday." I said. "Can I ask how you found out about him?" I asked.
Marcus sat next to Linda. "Lloyd told us. He called and told us you were pregnant and then called when you had the baby."
"And it took you 3 months to come and see him?" I asked.
"Mavis, what you need to understand is we weren't the best parents to Lloyd and we had to make sure we had the right mind set to be grandparents. We know we screwed up with Lloyd and we cant make up for that but we do want to be his grandparents and the best grandparents we can be." Linda explained and I watched her with Ryder.
"Did you guys really ship Lloyd off to nannies?" I asked and they sighed.
"We did, we weren't sure we would be good parents. We screwed up with Lloyd and you don't know how much we wish we could fix it but it's too late now." Marcus said.
"Please just give us a chance with our grandson Mavis, please..." Linda begged. I could tell this meant so much to her and she wanted to having this connection with Ryder.
"Of course, I could never deny Ryder knowing his grandparents." I said and they smiled.
"Does Lloyd ever come around?" Linda asked and I sighed shaking my head.
"I send him pictures and updates from the doctor visits but that's all through text or email. We have no phone contact." I said and Linda groaned.
"So he really doesn't want the father role...?" Linda asked in a small voice and I nodded.
"He doesn't and I wont force him. He was there when Ryder was born since I went into labor at his place and he held Ryder but that was it. He is on the birth certificate as his father but he isn't around. I wasn't going to deny him being his father whether he wanted it or not." I said.
"Would you like us to talk to him about it?" Marcus asked and I shook my head.
"No, I want him to want to come to me and Ryder on his own." I said.
"To you too?" Linda asked and I sighed.
"I love Lloyd there is no denying that I do. After everything with Denny, Lloyd and I were finally getting the future we wanted and going to be together. Then I got pregnant, and it all ended. He was willing to let me go at it alone with his son because he doesn't believe he would be a good father. So, I'm here raising my son with Suzanne, she is a big help and that's it. That's our life." I said and Linda sighed while she handed Ryder to Marcus.
"Well, we are now here for you as well." Linda said and I hugged her.

**LLOYD POV**
I was sitting at my desk getting some work done on the accounts that Mavis used to do when she was here. Even when she was with me and we were working on our life together she still found time to get work done.
"Mr. Hansen, you have visitors." Felix said and I looked up from the paperwork.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"Your parents." Marcus said as they walked in and I stood up in shock.
"What are you two doing here?" I asked. My mother came over and gave me a small hug and then my father shook my hand. They seemed in a good mood since my mother never really hugged me.
"Well we were in town and thought we would stop by. Can't we come see our son?" Linda asked as we all sat down.
"I mean you can but you two being in town in weird." I said.
"Well in all honesty, we stopped and saw Mavis and Ryder first." Linda said and I just sighed.
"Oh yeah...Ryder..."
"LLOYD!" Linda just yelled at his response to his son.
"What?! I never wanted the thing! I send money to Mavis to help her out and I get updates that I don't want." I explained.
"I know we were horrible parents and I knew we fucked up but we couldn't have fucked up that bad." Marcus said.
"I mean the nanny did all she could to raise me." I sneered.
"Lloyd please, you know we are sorry, but don't you think you are kind of doing the same to Ryder. I mean he is with his mother yes but only his mother. He has the right to know you. I think you could surprise yourself if you gave yourself a chance to try and be a father. Mavis also still loves you, she admitted she did, and we know you still love her..." Linda trailed off.
I ran my hands through my hair and groaned.
"I don't want to talk about this anymore! I'm not going to be able to be the father that child deserves or the man Mavis deserves!" I yelled and stormed out of the office leaving my parents there sitting, wondering if I was going to come back.
I walked into the tech room.
"Pull up the nanny cam." I said and the tech typed in the computer and on the screen popped up Mavis laying on the floor with Ryder playing together. Suzanne helped me put these camera's in her house without Mavis's knowledge. I told her it was security and to keep them safe but it was for me as well.
I sighed seeing them together. Mavis looked happy and Ryder looked as happy as a baby could be.
See they were better off without me.
