Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better

Vacation

"Are you ready for the World Cup?" Ashley asks as we sit in the waiting room of the baby Doctor place.

Jilly and Jamie both have the same baby doctor and both have appointments today. Jill's is just before Jamie's but they're both in the prep room or whatever the hell they are. They insisted that Ashley and I come with them to these appointments because the doctor freaks James out and Bobby and Bret had to be in the studio.

"I think so, I mean it's a little over a month away. It's gonna suck leaving Rikki, my stupid twin, Bobby, and Bret." I admit. "It's weird goi without Jilly and Jamie though."

"Hey, I've got something to ask you." Ashley changes the subject and I smile.

"Okay, shoot." I say.

"My mom really wants to meet CC and you because I talk so much about the two of you. I was wondering if you and Rikki want to come to Alabama with us?" She wonders. "I haven't really talked to CC about it yet but--mama might not have that much time left."

"Yeah Ash, I'll talk to Rikki about it. When were you thinking about going?" I ask.

"Before the World Cup." Ash says. "I'll get a real time but I was thinking in about a week."

"Okay." I nod as Jilly comes into the waiting room.

"My baby boy is due in June." She says and looks about ready to cry. "I played most of the tournament pregnant. He has a heartbeat but they don't know how healthy he'll be."

Jill does something I never thought I'd see her do in a million year but she bursts into tears. Ashley goes and hugs her as she cries.

"Jilly he's going to be okay." She says and rubs her back. "He's going to be a big, beautiful, healthy baby boy!"

"I hope he's not too big." Jilly admits with a laugh. "I've still gotta push him out."

"I guess he's that Italian guy's." I say. "Are you going to tell him?"

"No, I don't even have his number." Jill laughs. "I'll be okay raising him."

"I thought you were going to put him up for adoption." Ash says and Jill shrugs.

"I'm not sure yet." She admits.

Twenty minutes later Jamie comes out with happy tears in her eyes. She shows us the first picture of her and James' baby. We all part ways and I drive back home.

Rikki's car is in the driveway when I get home. I walk into the front door to see him laying on the couch. He looks at me and flips me off, I laugh and go over to him. Rikki pulls me down on top of him so I'm laying on my stomach on his chest. I kiss his nose and he laughs.

"I love you so much." He says and wraps his arms around me.

I talk to him about Jill and Jamie's babies and he listens but will randomly kiss my face while I talk.

"So Ashley was wondering if we would join her and CC in Alabama to see her mom." I say and he nods. "Is that something you'd be interested in doing?"

"Yeah I mean, it could be fun watching your brother get his ass kicked by her cousins." Rikki laughs and I smile.

"I was thinking the exact same thing." I admit.

"When are we going?" He wonders.

"Ashley still has to talk to CC but she was thinking about a week." I explain and he nods.

"Sounds good to me." He says. "I'm going to miss you so much when you're gone."

"I know, I wish that there was a way for me to live my dream closer to LA." I say.

"You know, a flight Vegas is only about an hour long." Rikki says and I look at him. "We could be there and back before anyone noticed."

"What are you saying?" I wonder.

"I'm saying that we can elope and just have a real wedding when you get back from the World Cup." He says.

"Are you asking me to marry you?" I wonder and he digs in his pocket.

He pulls out a small box with a diamond ring inside. Rikki smiles.

"Bianca Eleanor Johannesson, will you marry me?" He wonders and I kiss his lips.

"Of course I will." I say when I pull away. "Let's go to Vegas." I laugh.

"Your brother is gonna murder me." Rikki laughs as we go upstairs to pack.
