(Let me briefly explain what a "Random" is: It's like a regular one shot but without the extra character, if any, being in a love related scenario with another Sidemen. For example a fan, friend, or child of theirs.)

(A/N at end)

*Five Months Ago*
Josh, Simon, JJ, and Tobi were all in the living room playing FIFA. Then a knock on the front interrupted their game.

"Someone get the door I'm about to score!" Tobi yelled.

"Josh you go get it." Simon nudged him.

"Why me? I always get the door, it's your turn." Josh nudged, or more like pushed, Simon.

"Well, now that I'm off my chair..." Simon mumbled. He shuffled to the door and opened. Their stood a blonde girl about his age with a little girl, also blonde. "Hello, how can I help you?" Simon greeted. This was the last thing he expected to be on his porch.

"Hi does, um, Josh Zerker live here?" the lady asked nervously. Simon slowly nodded.

"And may I ask who you are?" Simon questioned before going to retrieve Josh.

"I'm his ex-girlfriend." she said shyly. The little girl next to her bounced. Simon went back inside and called Josh over.

"Josh there's a girl outside who wants to talk to you." Simon informed him. Ooos erupted from JJ and Tobi. Josh got off his stool and followed Simon to the front.

"Josephine? What are you doing here?" Josh stepped outside and closed the door behind him.

"I need to ask you something very important. Now, let me preference this by saying, I really don't mean to intrude on your life here and I'm not looking for any kind of get back together thing but... this is Riley." Josephine motioned to the toddler holding her hand.

"So it was a girl." Josh sighed. He had left Josephine two moths pregnant when they broke up almost four years ago.

"Yes, and I got this job over in America, and... I'm not aloud to take Riley with me. When my parents found out I was pregnant they kicked me and now I have no connection any of my family. I was wondering if, you, could take care of her for me. I'll only be gone for a year." she explained. By the end she seemed really upset.

"I don't know. I mean I live with a couple other guys and our schedule is kind of weird." Josh really didn't want to turn her away.

"Well, can you at least think of somewhere I can bring her because I don't want to give her up or leave her." Josie teared up thinking about having to give up her baby girl.

"Look, I'll think about and talk with guys. Give me your number I'll call you back by tomorrow with and answer." Josh ended up taking his daughter in.

*Present*
Riley carefully stepped down each step to the second floor. It was early in the morning and Vik had stayed up all night once again. Now running on two sleepless nights. He was just about half asleep at his desk editing, when Riley quietly snuck in. She went over to the shelves and reached up, pawing for anything her hand could grab. What she got was a small, loaded, Nerf gun. She pointed it at the of Vik's droopy head and fired.

"Ah! Ow!" Vik shoot up. That woke him up. He spun around and saw Riley with her hand in her mouth giggling. She bolted out the with Vik chasing. Simon came around the corner and caught Riley, lifting her up.

"What do you think you're doing?" Simon spotted the gun in her tiny hand.

"Nothing." she shook her head.

"Liar, she shot me in the head!" Vik rubbed the back of his skull.

"Why would you do that to poor Vikky?" Simon took the gun away from her.

"Cause it's funny." Riley admitted.

"Fair enough." Simon shrugged. Even though Riley is Josh's daughter, she had a unique bond with Simon. He didn't, and still doesn't, understand how young children work but he learned to get along with Riley. And boy does she love him! She loves all the Sidemen too of course for their own reasons though.

"Of course you'd be on her side." Vik grumbled as he trudged back to his room, exhausted. Simon set Riley down and headed back up to his room.

"Where are you going?" Riley followed him.

"To get ready to go to Tobi's place and hang, do a few videos." Simon told her.

"Can I come?" she asked with a bounce in her step.

"No, sorry sweetie." Simon chuckled.

"Please." Riley begged.

"Why don't you stay here with, Josh? He'll be leaving tomorrow for holiday." Simon hoisted Riley onto his bed.

"But I always hang with Josh. I wanna be with you." she pouted.

"No... I'm pretty sure you always hang with me." Simon tied his shoes.

"Siiiimooon!" Riley whined, falling back on the bed. "Don't leave me!" With the guys always being in the house, if one of them went out the rest would go as well and Riley would come. It wasn't normal for her to be left behind.

"Riley I'd love for you to come but I want it to just be me and the guys. Hang with Josh, he's leaving tomorrow." Simon kissed her head.

"Wh-Why does everyone leave me?" Riley reached out for him.

"Look, I'll be back tonight and Josh is only gone for one week." Simon picked her up once more. He carried her downstairs while she clung to his shirt. Simon opened Josh's door, who was busy editing. "Josh I'm leaving and heading over to Tobi's. Riley's going to stay with you." He put her own the ground.

"Okay cool." Josh nodded.

"No!" Riley shouted.

"I'll be back tonight, kiddo, I promise." Simon quickly closed the door and jogged downstairs. Riley stood there staring blankly at the door.

"Riley, baby, come here." Josh opened his arms for Riley. She walked over and he pulled her to his lap. Eight hours later and Simon called Josh. Riley had just woken up from a nap. "Hey, Simon."

"Sup, so we were all heading out for dinner and if you want to come and bring Riley that'd be great." Simon suggested.

"That's a great a idea! We'll meet you at (random restaurant)." Josh hung up and looked over at Riley. "Riley guess what?"

"What?" she yawned.

"We're going to go meet Simon and the crew for dinner." Josh said happily.

"Yay!" Riley screeched. They instantly got ready and left. They walked down the street looking for the guys who were suppose to be standing outside. Although Riley is much shorter than the crowd, she spotted Simon before Josh did. "Simon!" Riley chirped running at him.

"Riley wait!" Josh ran after her trying not to loose her in the crowd.

"Hey baby girl." Simon lifted her up to his one side as normal. "I missed you." Tobi, Ethan, Cal(freezy), and Joe all laughed a little bit at this. They understood being all sweet to little kids but the fact that Simon asked if they could come and always talked about her like that made them tease him for being a softie. But he didn't mind.
