Later they were in the Twinkie, John B clearly giving JJ the side eye as he cuddled Ruby.

They had gotten caught in the closet, but instead of stopping Ruby made JJ continue- which was a surprise to them both. But JJ wasn't complaining.

Currently she was asleep on his lap as John B drove to the bar JJ told him to go to, claiming he knew someone who could help them.

He played with her hair, occasionally leaving a kiss on her head as he watched her sleep.

When John B stopped JJ woke Ruby up, helping her out and keeping an arm around her waist as he led everyone inside.

Ruby rubbed her eyes, leaning into JJ as he went over to two men- John B and Sage eyeing them suspiciously.

She didn't really pay attention to the conversation, she was just exhausted and still feeling sick.

So Ruby just followed everyone back to the Twinkie, putting her hair in a ponytail and fanning herself with her hands.

"Ruby.." Sage said quietly, "I know Sage.. I'll take one soon.." Ruby murmured, keeping her gaze down.

She leaned over the seat and gave JJ a kiss, smiling into it as he tried to pull her closer, John B groaning in annoyance.

"Can you two maybe not make a baby in my van?" John B retorted, JJ of course laughed it off but Ruby leaned back in her seat, her smile automatically fading.

She stayed quiet for the rest of the drive, a frown on her face as she was deep in her own thoughts. She was seventeen and JJ was eighteen, there's no way they were ready for a kid.

But the thought of giving it up or- Ruby grimaced and shook her head at the thought. She took a long sip of her bottled lemonade, trying her best to get thoughts of a possible pregnancy out of her head.

JJ stopped the van and they all got out, John B complaining and bitching the whole time.

"JJ. Are you sure this is a good idea?" John B asked, "do you have any better ideas?" JJ fired back.

John B went quiet, "mhm that's what I thought. You gotta trust me man, Papa J and Mama Rue here. We got this shit, 100%" JJ said and put his arm around Ruby.

Normally she would've laughed along, but at the mention of the witty nicknames she froze- suddenly picturing JJ with a kid of their own in the front yard.

"Rue- baby? Hey you good?" JJ asked, snapping her out of her thoughts, "hm? Oh yea I'm fine" Ruby said and gave him a nervous smile.

She followed him over to the u-hual and shook her head, blinking a few times as she tried to clear her thoughts.

She was completely and royally fucked.
