Max POV (Lea's Dad)
"You have so much explaining to do mister." I said sitting across from Riker. We wake up this morning and go to have breakfast, Lea is quite but has a look on her face which could kill and Riker's not there, we ask her where he is and she I don't know, don't care he left.
Mark and I used to take the boys to this diner after we used to play a little bit of football or we'd go out and do something with them and Riker used to love it, so i came here and found him.
"Max I'm not in the mood, can I please be left alone ?" Riker asked, I shook my head and grabbed his keys, he can't leave now.
"I'm not interrogating you, I just want to know what's gone on. You two have been in love all your lives and now something's changed." I said. Riker sighed rubbing his eyes.
"We've broken up twice and it's not even been 24 hours. I was sat outside talking to Sarah and I said I didn't feel anything special, Lea heard and then she saw Sarah kiss me and everything went down hill from there, we made up then she said she was pregnant with Liam's kid, we got into an argument and she said no matter how much we love each other this isn't going to work." Riker said.
She's pregnant again ?! Having Greg show up out of the blue was a huge surprise and wasn't much of a good one. We always questioned if that was the hospital was the real reason Lea left, we all knew something had gone on with her and Riker, Ryland saw them kissing and obviously we haven't told them we know that, we're not that crazy.
"Does she know you and Sarah had sex ?" I asked, at first we thought there was something going on with Riker and Sarah because they both openly said they had sex.
"About that....I didn't actually go through with it. Sarah thought I would relax by telling people I had sex with her. I have only had sex with 1 person in my entire life." Riker said, it was like switching a light on. It hit me like a ton of bricks.
"When you said you didn't feel anything special, did you mean you didn't feel anything like you did when you two had sex ?" I asked making his eyes widen slightly.
"Don't give me that look, Ryland saw you two kissing. You seriously expect me to kill you or something ? You gave it away yourself. Riker look what you feel when you have sex with someone for the first time and what you feel I don't know the 10th time you kiss someone is going to be different. You think I feel something special every time I kiss Gwen ? No ! Sometimes I ask myself why did I marry her ? But then I look at you kids and think my life would be completely different without guys. If I hadn't met Gwen your Mom and Dad wouldn't of met which means we wouldn't have this amazing family. You guys are our world and you will always be our kids, in my eyes you're my son and so are the others." I said making Riker smile.
Sometimes I just want to have some alone time and Gwen comes over trying to give me a cuddle or kisses and I get annoyed but that doesn't change the fact that she is the best thing to ever happen to me.
"Look what I'm trying to say is sometimes you won't feel something special, it doesn't mean it's not there. Remember what i used to tell you, Love is when you look into someone's eyes and see everything you need." I said making him laugh.
He stole it from me.
"So what do I do ? Cause it's sort of like a bomb, I only have a certain period of time before she gets back with Liam which will cause the explosion." Riker said.
I laughed shaking my head "he will not go near her ever again believe me and us parents were thinking why don't all of us go to Spain like we used to but we bring Greg along ?"
Riker laughed and shrugged "you two will start acting like best friends but now you both know how you feel, I promise you she'll come to you before you go to her." I said.
"I don't get why it's starting to fall to pieces." Riker said. I sighed pulling out my wallet and handed him a picture of him and Lea when they were about 15 maybe 16, we were at my brothers wedding and Lea is whispering something but from the angle of the picture it looks like they're kissing.
Riker picked it up and smiled "you wanna know why we got that photo printed ?" I asked.
Riker nodded not taking his eyes off of it "the wedding was two years after Pops died, we lost Lea for those two years but the way she's looking at you smiling made us realise you're the only person in the world you can make her smile. We hadn't seen that smile for two years, you bought my baby back and for that I will always love you."
Riker looked at me and smiled "can you keep something a secret ? Son to Dad ?"
I nodded.
"I'm Greg's Dad. Lea doesn't know." Riker said confusing me.
I'm pretty sure she would.
"Doesn't know ?"
"Well she always said he was Liam's but when she came back she somehow thought he was mine so I got my friend to do a DNA, that's why I got so pissed off when she said she was pregnant with Liam's. He texted me saying he shouldn't really do it but it came back as a 99.9% match." Riker said.
I sighed with relief and relaxed in my seat. Knowing Greg is Riker's is so much more relaxing, I don't care if it hurts Lea's feelings but seriously ? Liam ? Riker is so much cooler and he will actually spend time with Greg, he already has and that's properly more than what Liam has done.
"Well I'm glad it's you, I don't know how much longer I would of gone pretending that I could deal with the fact that Liam was Greg's Dad but right now I think we should go back home cause your Mom is properly going crazy wondering where you are and I've got some spending to do." I said making Riker laugh as I stood up, he put some money on the table and we walked out, I threw him his keys and we drove home.
Maybe we had a little race on the way but it's only a little fun.
"Riker !" Stormie said running out before Riker even got out of his car.
"Whe-"
"Stormie it's okay, me and him had a little chat, he wasn't planing on going any where he just wanted some alone time." I said as Riker hugged Stormie.
"Stealing my son again ?" Mark asked jokingly.
"You've got three more, I wanted a boy but no got stuck with three girls." I said making Sarah and Lea gasp, I'm sorry for telling the truth.
Okay so I'm sorry for not updating but I have been having some health issues and actually have to go to the hospital tomorrow so I hope you enjoy this and hopefully I'll update 💙😎🦄
