Riker: "Baaaaaabe! Could you make me a sandwich??" Riker called from the living room. His family had all come over to yours and his place tonight for dinner. The guys and Mark were all piled onto the couch playing video games. You rolled your eyes as you and Rydel chopped peppers for the homemade pizza you were fixing for dinner. "Riker we're eating dinner in an hour! Can't you wait??" you called back. He was silent for a few seconds. "No I'm hungry nowww!" he whined. You sighed and walked over to the fridge. Rydel giggled. "You two are so cute!" She gushed. You scoffed as you returned to the counter with an armful of sandwich stuff. "Trust me, it's not always this cute." You mumbled to yourself, laughing silently. You and Riker had gotten married two years ago, when he was 19 and you were 18. It most definitely hadn't been easy, but you didn't regret getting married young. "I can't believe you guys have been married for two years already!" Rydel exclaimed. You nodded as you began preparing Riker's sandwich. "I know, I can't either." You alternated between making the sandwich and working on the pizza. "I can't either!" Stormie interjected as she walked into the kitchen. "Isn't it about time I get my first grandchild?" she asked playfully. You laughed. "Don't get your hopes up too high Stormie, that's definitely going to be a LONG ways down the road." "BAAAAAAAAAABE WHERE'S MY SANDWICH?" Riker called again. You groaned and threw the ham you were slicing down on the counter. "Riker Anthony Lynch if you don't leave me alone about your sandwich I swear you will sleep on the couch tonight! If I'm moving too slowly for you then you can come in here and make your own dang sandwich!!" you yelled back. "OOOOOH!" The guys chorused. "She got you!" you heard Ross exclaim. Rydel and Stormie laughed. "Get 'im!" Rydel encouraged. Seconds later Riker came bounding into the room. He quickly wrapped you into a tight hug. "I'm sorry!" he exclaimed. "Pleeease don't make me sleep on the couch!" he pleaded. You wriggled out of his grasp and turned to face him. "No...I think you're sleeping on the couch tonight. Too bad...because Rydel and I made a trip to the mall today and I visited this little place called Victoria's Secret." you said playfully. You pulled down the collar of your shirt slightly to show him a peak of your new lacy blue bra. His jaw dropped slightly. "That's not even fair." he muttered. Rydel cleared her throat awkwardly. "Still in here." she reminded you. You laughed and went back to working on the pizza. Riker picked up the half-finished sandwich and took a bite before leaning down to whisper in your ear. "I'll be seeing you and your new friend later tonight." He pecked your cheek. "STILL IN HERE!" both Stormie and Rydel chorused.

Ratliff: "Alright guys, great rehearsal! The show starts in a few hours so nobody go too far!" Stormie instructed. You sat offstage with Ryland, watching as the band put their instruments away. "They're really pumped today!" Ryland gushed. You nodded slowly, trying to avoid aggravating your already upset stomach. "You ok?" he asked, noting the change in your expression. You faked a smile. "Yeah I'm fine." you assured him. Ellington came running over seconds later. "Hey baby." he said happily. He was dripping with sweat. "Heyyy El." you said hesitantly, leaning towards Ryland. A mischievous grin crossed his face. "Oh what's wrong...it's just a little sweat!" he said wickedly. You scooted farther over; you were almost in Ryland's lap. "Ellington Ratliff don't you dar-" you started. He quickly flopped down in your lap, pressing his sweaty body against you. "ELLINGTON!" you cried. He laughed, rubbing the sweat from his arms all over you. "What's wrong baby?" he asked innocently. "That's disgusting!" you complained. He laughed and stood up. "Might wanna shower before the show." he said simply, pecking you on your nose. "Ya think?" you muttered. You felt your stomach turn; the smell of sweat was overpowering. Thankfully Ellington's back was turned to you. You gave Rydel a look before bolting towards the bathroom. She knocked on the door just as you were flushing the toilet. "Come in." you moaned, standing up slowly. She stepped inside and closed the door behind her. Her face was a mix of concern and excitement. "(Y/n) I'm telling you...I think you're pregnant!" she said quietly. You shook your head. "I can't be pregnant!" you groaned. She looked confused. "Why is this such a problem for you?? You're married!" she said incredulously. You shook your head again. "Yeah and I'm also 19." you reminded her. Last year, when you were just 18 and Ellington only 19, the two of you had gotten married. You had been together since you were in middle school; marriage had seemed like the logical next step, even though you were so young. However, you had both agreed that you didn't want to have kids until you were well into your twenties. Getting pregnant less than a year after your wedding hadn't been a part of the plan. "Rydel you guys are getting bigger and bigger! You're touring all over the world, you stay busy...and again. I AM NINETEEN. We can't handle a baby right now! Even if we are married." You felt like you were on the verge of tears. Rydel noticed immediately. "Oh no (y/n) please don't cry!" she pleaded. You sniffed as tears began rolling down your cheeks. "Too late." you said quietly, fighting back sobs. Rydel immediately left the bathroom; you figured she was going to get Stormie. Seconds later, Ellington popped his head into the room. "(Y/n) baby, what's wrong?" he asked, concerned. You shook your head as you rested your forehead against his chest. He let you cry for a few minutes before trying again. "Babe please tell me." He rubbed your back soothingly. You sniffled. "I don't want you to be upset." you whispered. He hugged you tighter. "I would never be upset with you, (y/n)." he assured you. You sighed. "I think I'm pregnant." you said quietly. He immediately pulled back to look at you. He was beaming. "Are you serious?!" he asked excitedly. You nodded. "Yeah...I'm not totally sure though. I've been throwing up like crazy lately and I missed my last period but I haven't actually taken a test yet...wait. You aren't mad?" you asked. He laughed. "Mad?! Why would I be mad?! This is amazing!" He leaned against the sink. "Wow...I may be a father..." he breathed. He turned immediately to look at you. "Wait...what made you think I would be mad?" he questioned. You looked down. "I'm only 19 El. You're 20. Do you think we can take care of a baby, as young as we are?" you asked. He stepped closer to you. "I absolutely think we can. And besides, we have Stormie and the rest of the family to help us out. We can do this." He pulled you into another hug. "I love you." you mumbled into his chest. He tightened his arms around you. "I love you too." he replied.
