River.

Chapter 70: Normality

*A week later*

Jordan's P.O.V.

Things seemed normal again... Well, different yet normal at the same time. 

Cass and River were back together, River and Max were close again, Liliana and I made up, Madison and Max still had a bit of a rivalry but I don't think that's ever gonna change, AJ and Ryan were dating, Cass and Lindsay made up, Lindsay was back with Max, River finally came to terms with that fact that Journey and I were having a kid, Legend and Sony were pretty much bestfriends, and Journey's ex, Jesse, was in jail.

And for the first time in about two months, we all finally saw River genuinely smile.

It was about 11 in the morning and we were all chilling at River's house. And by all I meant literally all of us: Max, Legend, Journey, Cass, AJ, Ryan, Sonny, Xander, Liliana, Riley, Serena, Madison, Jenna, Grayson, Rome, Lindsay, and myself.

We were in the living-room chatting away when Sonny brought up something.

"So where's River?" He asked.

"I don't know." Cassie replied. "I stopped by his house before I came here and Maracel told me that he had left around 3 this morning."

Suddenly the door opened....

"Speaking of the devil..." Said Journey.

River walked in with a mischevious smile on his face. Before we could ask why he was smiling a really pretty girl walked in behind him.

"Guys, meet Elise.... My daughter."

"Damn you're hot as hell." Riley stated.

"Riley stop being weird." I responded.

"Oh my god. You weren't kidding when you said she looks just like you." Said Cassie.

"She could be your twin." Xander added.

"Girl you are fucking beautiful." Ryan bluntly remarked.

"No kidding." Legend added.

Jenna jumped up and ran over to hug her.

"I'm soooo glad you're here!" She exclaimed.

"Elise, meet the family." River began. "That's Cassidy, my girlfriend, that's Riley and that's Xander, her brothers, that's Jordan, her bestfriend, and that's my sister Journey who just so happens to be dating Jordan, that's Legend, my brother, that's Liliana, Jordan's sister and that's their cousin Serena, that's your uncle Max, his girlfriend Lindsay, then that's AJ and his man Ryan,  that's Ryan's younger brother Sonny, that's Madison, Max's little sister, that's Grayson though I'm sure you know him, and that's Rome...  your little brother."

"I have a little brother?" She asked.

"You do. Come here Roman."

Rome got up with the most adorable smile on his face and made his way towards River.

"Introduce yourself to Elise." Said River.

"Hi Elise, it is an extreme delight to meet you. I am Roman Dean Carson but you may call me Rome for short. And may I say you are very beautiful."

Her jaw dropped causing us all to giggle.

"How old are you?" She asked.

"Just turned 5 not too long ago." He stated with pride.

She turned her head to River. "What 5 year old talks like that?" She asked.

"My 5 year old." He laughed.
