Riley pov
We rehearse the routine one more time. I'm so tired and sweaty by now. We all get in our finishing positions.
I can still dance, because the baby is so small. But I won't be able to make it to nationals. And James is way over protective.
"Ok, we did really good today. Let's head home, but remember we have practise at 8:00 am sharp." Emily says.
"Ok, bye." I reply, walking over to my cubby. I fish my waterbottle out of my bag and have a long drink of water. Just as I'm putting the bottle back, I see James approaching me. I instantly smile.
"Hey, babe. Wanna ride home?" He asks.
"I think I'd rather walk. Just to let my body cool down." I say with a shrug.
"We can get ice cream on the way back.." He offers "That'll keep your body cool."
I smile.
"I can't say no to ice cream." I say, defeated. He smirks, knowing he won this battle.
"Ok, meet me outside in 10?"
"See ya there, baby."
He leaves the room. I grab my pink and black dance bag and go into the washroom. I see Michelle there, doing her make-up.
"Hey, M." I greet.
"Hey Ri!" She responds. "I actually wanted to talk to you."
"I'm all ears." I say. I'm not really worried because she's one of my best friends.
"So, I was thinking of doing a slumber party tomorrow. Do you think you can make it? You know movies, gossip, boys. " She giggles.
"I'd love to. We're gonna have so much fun!" I squeal.
"And can you tell Em about it as well." She asks. I frown. "Please, Riley. She's your sister. You know she didn't mean what she said. And that was like 3 days ago."
"2 days." I mumble. I start thinking about what she said. And in a way she's sorta right. The pressure probably got to her.
"Whatever, Ri. You know I'm right." Michelle pleads.
"Ok. I gotta get dressed now though." I say, looking at my phone.
"Thanks, bye."
"Bye."
James pov
I'm waiting in my car for Riley to show up. And after about 15 minutes she does. She opens the door to the passenger side, about to go in. She surprised me when she dumped her bag on the chair and came to the drivers seat. She opens my door and plops down on my lap.
"I love you so much." She says. She doesn't give me a chance to reply. She pulls the collar of my shirt and crashes her lips onto mine. Yeah, baby! I like Riley when she's feisty. I kiss back imeadietly. After about five minutes, she pulls away, gets off me and goes to the passengers seat.
"I'm sorry I was late, baby." She says. And it all makes sense.
"Next time, make sure you're late." I smirk. "And I love you too by the way."

We pull up at my house. I peck James on the lips. He frowns.
"Now, where did feisty Riley go?" He asks. I blush. I go to his side and plop down on his lap again.
"She's right here, baby." I whisper before grabbing his collar again.
We kiss for about 5 minutes, before I pull away, gasping for breath.
"Bye, gorgeous. See you at 4." He says.
"Bye, handsome."
I knock on the door, because Emily has the key. She opens it to me almost immediately.
"Hey, Em." I mumble.
"Hey." She says. I go in to find mom and dad having lunch. Spaghetti.
"Only 10 minutes making out with James. New record." Dad says. I blush.
"Sorry I'm late."
"Haha it's ok. At least you made it in time." My mom replies.
I sit on the empty seat and start chewing on my spaghetti.
"Quite an appetite today Ri." My dad comments as he gets up from his seat. I'm the only one left. I smile weakly.
"Umm yeah. I guess I'm just hungry." I say. He chuckles. I hope he's not becoming suspicious. I really wanna be the one to tell him about our baby.

I pull up at Rileys at 3:55. I knock on the door. I'm so excited to see my unborn baby. I really wanna take care of him/her and Riley. I want us to be a family, even if some people think we're too young. I am turning 18 in a week. But I cant help feel a bit nervous. My thoughts are inturuppted when I see Riley at the door. I smile.
"Hey, babe." I say giving her a hug.
"Hi." I can tell she's nervous and chuckle at that. It's too cute.
"Nervous, princess?" I ask. Even though I know she is.
"Yeah. But I'm super excited too." She says. I peck her lips.
"We should probably get going, gorgeous." I say. I usher her to the passenger seat and open the door for her. She gets in and smiles weakly at me. I get into the drivers seat.

The ride probably lasted 30 minutes, but to me it was like waiting 30 hours. I am so nervous. I can feel the baby do flips in me. I'm about to throw up.
We finally get there. We walk in, hand in hand. I pace around, waiting for our name to be called. James is casually seated on a chair, reading a magazine.
"Riley!" He exclaims. I panick.
"What?!?" I ask, worried.
"Look at this, that jacket would suit you perfectly." He said. Was he being serious? I mean here I am waiting to find out ably the baby that's inside me, and he's talking about a jacket that would 'suit me'.
"Are you serious?" I ask, I snatch the magazine from his hand.
"Yeah, I mean black is totally your color." I grab his collar and pull him into a heated makeout, with the magazine in front of us. He pulls away after a while.
"I think your up. I think your up." He says. We follow a woman im to a room. I stared at the white walls. The room was so depressing. All white and grey.
I sit on the bed and pull my top up. The doctor rubs some cold gel on my tummy. I flinch at how cold it is. Soon a heart beat appears on the screen with a tiny body, well it wasn't a body but you know. Seeing it was incredible, there were tears in our eyes.
"Looks like you're a having a healthy baby." The doctor says. I felt so relieved. I looked at James, who was smiling widely.
"Thank you so much!" He says. "I can't wait to see this kid grow up."
"Haha would you like to know the gender?" She asks. James looks at me. I nod.
"Yes, please." I say.
"You're having a baby... girl!" She says. I'm happy it's a girl because I've heard girls are easier than boys.
"So I'll have three princesses then." James chuckles. I smile. I can't wait for us to have a little family.
