*PLEASE READ*
Hey everybody, I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to update. And I'm also sorry to say this, but this is the final chapter of The R5 Dream. I am sad to see it end. But I feel like this story is going no where. And I want to end it before it gets to much off track.

And now here's the final chapter..

~~~~~

Rocky POV:

I can't believe my son is three years old today! It felt like just yesterday when I was holding him in the hostpital, when he was born. I couldn't picture my life any other way then it is now. I'm happy, greatful, and I can see an awesome future ahead for my family and I.

As I was putting the finishing touches on the birthday cake I was making for Peter, Cat walked in. "Hey babe." I said kissing her temple as she scooped some frosting from the bowl. "Hey. I just wanted to tell you that I'm going to Ashley's house before I call Rydel and Ratliff telling them to bring Peter here." "Okay, what's up with Ashley?" I asked. "I don't know. She wants to talk to me about something. She didn't get into detail. Anyway I gotta go. I love you." "I love you." Before she could take another step towards the door I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to me. Smashing my lips onto hers. "Peter's three today!" I said happily once we pulled away. "I know! We've done a good job so far." She giggled. I'm so lucky to have her. "I know. I couldn't have done it without you." I gush. "Well obviously I'm the one the one with the uterus." "Oh shut up." We laughed. "Bye babe." "Bye." I said as the door to our beachside condo closed.

About a year after we had Peter we decided we needed a house of our own. So we went searching and found this one fairly quickly. It's a two floor, white condo. With a wrap around porch and has direct access to our own private beach. I loved it.

But I'll never love anything more then Catherine and my son.

Ashley POV:

I sat down on the couch, as my leg bounced rapidly. I can't believe this is happening. Don't get me wrong. I love Riker, but I don't know if I'm ready to take such a big step in my life. I know I can do it, I know I'm not alone. I'm just scared. But if Catherine can be a mother starting a 18, then I can be one now.

A knock on the door caused me to jump. I quickly shuffled my way to the door and opened it. Cat's smile faded once she saw my fearful face. "What's wrong?" She asked in a panic. "I really need your help. I know you'll understand you've been through this." She seemed to understand what I was talking about almost instantly. "Ashley. Are you.. Ya know...?" I nodded. "And how do you feel about that?" She asked. "Conflicted." "That's understandable. Does Riker know?" "Not yet. But I'm gonna tell him as soon as he gets back from the studio with Ross." "Okay. Make sure you know you're not alone, okay?" "I know. Thank you for your support." I said hugging her. "Hey if you can support me as a teen mom. I can defiantly support you now." We laughed.

The door swung open moments later. "Hey Ash." Riker said kissing my cheek. "Hey baby." Ross followed in shortly after. "Ross need a ride to my house?" Cat asked. I knew she was trying to leave Riker and I alone. "Sure." I mouthed a 'thank you' and she mouthed a 'good luck' before the door closed.

I went into the living room and sat on the couch. "Ashley. We need to talk." Riker said. "O-okay.." Did he know already? I only took the test yesterday, and I put it in the bottom of the trash. "Okay, I'm just gonna say it. I know you're pregnant." My mouth dropped open. When I didn't respond Riker took my hands in his. "Why didn't you tell me?" He asked, slightly hurt. "I was afraid. And thought you wouldn't want to have a kid." "Are you kidding?! I'm so happy!" "Really?" "Yes!" He jumped up on the couch chanting "I'm gonna be a dad! I'm gonna be a dad!" Great now I have two kids to look out for. My soon to be child. And my goofball of a husband. My life just got a whole lot crazier.

Rydel POV:

The party for Peter just started and already cupcakes and other goodies we all over the floor. Peter was on the beach with Cat and Rocky as they all built a sand castle. "Hey." Ratliff said wrapping his arms around my waist. "Hey." "I still love the way that ring looks on your finger." He said with a chuckle. I fiddled with my engagement ring. Ratliff proposed to me last month. We're planning on getting married in six weeks. Planning a wedding it hard. But so worth it. I've never been more in love them what I am now. He makes me unbelievably happy.

Ross POV:

I ran past everyone and dived into the water. I loved that Cat and Rocky had their own private beach. "Babe!" Marie shouted when I splashed. "What?" I asked acting all innocent. "You know exactly what!" She said tackling me.

Marie and I met eight months ago at a concert of ours. We were singing Did You have Your Fun? When my eyes fell on her in the front row. I don't know how we actually met. But man I'm glad we did. I was finally able to get over my feelings for Cat. I've fallen in love all over again. With someone who's right for me "I hate you!" Marie said jokingly as I got salt water in her eye. "I love you." Her head snapped up to look at me. We haven't said I love you yet. But I just blurted it out. I couldn't speak I was in shock. What if she doesn't love me and I scared her away. "Ross, did you just say you love me?" Yes, I mean what's not to love with her ombré hair that falls to the bottom of her back. With her piercing blue eyes. And that little freckle on her right cheek. Plus her gorgeous body. There wasn't anything I didn't like even her personality was great. When i didn't respond she slowly walked over to me. "Ross.." She said placing her hand on my cheek. "I love you too." I can't believe she just said that, am I dreaming? "You do?" "Yeah! I've been wanting to say that to you for weeks!" On that note I smashed my lips onto hers for a long passionate kiss.

Ratliff POV:

As Rydel and I were flipping burgers on the grill I thought of how my life was now. And how different it could have been if I never met the Lynch's in the dance studio. All those years ago. I have the love of my life. And incredible friends. There isn't anything else I need.

Riker POV:

We all sat around the campfire. Ross and Rocky had their guitars and we were singing some songs. Ryland's German Shepard barked as heat lightning shot across the sky. Peter was giggling in his moms lap as he clapped along to the beat. Everything was perfect. Life couldn't get any better. Ashley being pregnant couldn't come at a better time. We decided to tell everyone tomorrow. This was Peter's day. We just dropped our third album and the money was coming in great. The R5 Family is the best fans any band could ask for. I'm truly grateful to have all these people in my life.

Ryland POV:

We all rushed inside as the rain starts to fall. We sat in the living room. Cat came back in with a big fluffy towel and wrapped Peter in it. "Okay. I think it's time for a bath, then bed. Say thank you to everyone Peter." She told him, holding him against her hip. "T-thank you guys!" I laughed at his pronunciation of the work 'thank' he was to cute. "Rusty!" I shouted as my dog licked my toes. I decided to get a dog from a near by shelter a few months ago. I'm so happy that I got to give a dog a forever home.

Cat POV:

"Okay bud, get in!" I said to my son as he waddled over to his race car bed. "I hads fun to-night mommy dank you!" "No problem baby. I love you!" "Wuv you too!" I kissed his cheek and pulled the blankets over his small body. I turned on his night light and closed the door.

Rocky was standing on the porch. Watching the rain fall. "Why aren't you inside?" I asked slipping my arm into his. He chucked. "They all started having a debate about whether or not to get smoothies tomorrow. I didn't want to hear it." I laughed. "Yeah know when Ashley and I first moved back here, I didn't think we would find you guys again." "Luckily you moved right next door." "Yeah." He turned to face me. "Thank you." I blurted out. "For what?" He asked confused. I pulled him  into a hug. He rested his chin on top of my head. "For everything."

I really am living The R5 Dream.
