Chapter One

A Very Memorable Birthday

Today October 21st, 2019 Farkle Minkus' eighteenth birthday

It's a brisk morning in New York City; there is overcast in the sky, Impending rain according to the weatherman. Farkle was getting ready for the day. He smelt the chocolate chip Pancakes his mother would be cooking him for his birthday. Farkle went downstairs to see his parents, siblings and Riley all sitting at the breakfast table. A large stack of pancakes sat in his spot. Riley was seated in the chair next to his. It was a long standing tradition that Riley would have pancakes with Farkle on his birthday. Even Farkle's older siblings Nova and Felix came to celebrate his birthday. They are twins and are twenty-one years of age.

"Happy Birthday! Farkle!" Riley screamed giving him a hug, as she jumped out of her seat. She was dressed in jean, converse, a graphic tee of a purple kitten and a jean jacket.

"Thank you, Riley." Farkle was looking back about his recent break-up from his first girlfriend Isadora Smackle. Smackle had feelings for Lucus, Lucus had feelings for her. But Farkle was relieved too because he had feelings for someone amplify. Maya was dating Josh and Zay was seeing a girl he met online. Riley was dating Charlie. Farkle was the only one in the friend group who wasn't seeing someone. But he wasn't going to let that ruin his day.

"You and Riley should date." Felix said with a huge grin on his face as he stuffed a bite of pancakes into his mouth. In that moment Riley backhanded Felix's head.

"Lix, you know I am seeing Charlie. I have been for six months."

"Things can change Riley." The six foot young man got up from the table with his empty plate in hand to go wash his dish. Before Riley could respond, Felix was already walking out the door. Farkle glanced over stealing a glance at Riley who was blushing. But when she locked eyes with Farkle she caught herself, and brushed it off.

"We better go to school Riles." Farkle said. "Thanks for the pancakes Mom, delicious like always." Farkle got up and he was a towering height of six four now and then he leaned over and kissed his mother on the cheek. Farkle then grabbed his school bag, Riley followed by saying thank you for the pancakes. Both of them were out the door and now walking to school.

They had walked a few blocks and Charlie had meet up with the duo. Charlie has embraced Riley in a hug. He leaned down and kissed her hello. They took each other's hand and began to walk in step. Farkle had become furious with the PDA and started walking ahead of the couple. Farkle never had an issue with Riley having boyfriends before, but something in him had changed recently, he realized his feelings and he was head over heels in love with Riley. The main reason he broke up with Smackle.

"Happy birthday Farkle, Riley just told me it was your birthday." Did Charlie seriously forget his birthday? They have only been friends since the third grade, Charlie always had feelings for Riley and even now more than ever it threatened Farkle's happiness.

"Thanks Charles." Farkle walked passed Charlie into school. Meeting up with the gang. Smackle and Lucus where embracing one another, while Zay and Maya where chatting amongst themselves. Farkle gave a kill me smile to Maya; As Riley and Charlie walked behind them laughing.

"Happy Birthday Farkle." Maya gave her best friend a hug.

"Thanks can we now go throughout the day without the mention of my birthday now please?"

"Okay, but not until we give you your presents first." Lucus said laughing. Still embracing Smackle around the waist and she had her arms around his neck.

"Fine." Farkle had become overcome with a crazy stomach ache in that moment and he ran for the bathroom. Going into the stall to vomit, Zay and Lucus followed him into the bathroom to make sure he was alright.

"Farkle? You okay? We won't give you gifts if it makes you sick." Zay said in a mocking tone and then Lucus punched him since you heard an "Ow" from Zay. Lucus opened the stall and Farkle was no longer in the stall. Only his one strap backpack remained in the stall.

Farkle's POV

Age 18

The last thing I remember I had gotten a crazy dizzy spell and felt like I needed to vomit and ran into the bathroom. Only to vanish. When I came to a scream from a woman startled me awake. I look up to see a very pregnant Riley looking down at me. She then to the best of her ability tried to help me up. I gave her a real look over. Her long brown locks went down to her back and looked extra gorgeous due to the pregnancy hormones. She wore a beautiful Morganite engagement ring with a halo around the cushion cut and a matching band at the base of the ring. She was still in her morning pajama pants and wore a large shirt around her swelling bump. The whole ensemble wrapped in a bathrobe. She also wore black moccasin slippers.

"I am sorry to have woken you. I just got scared since you just feel on my kitchen floor." She helped me to the counter seat. She then poured me a glass of water. "I bet you have questions." She rested on the chair next to me. She took a comfortable seat in her chair and then started to stroke her bump. Distracting me for a brief moment and I had become enraged thinking someone had gotten Riley pregnant. But this is a future Riley, how is this possible?

"What happened to me? How old are you and how far along are you? Did I time travel?"

"Yes you time travelled, I am going to be twenty- eight soon and I can pop at any moment. The doctor says I am already two centimeters dilated. Happy Eighteenth Farkle." She said stroking her tummy and took a small sip of her water.

"Can you not stroke your bump? I am such an idiot. But it makes me uncomfortable. To see you like this after I just saw you smacking lips with Charlie. I bet he is going to be a good Dad." Riley just chuckled.

"Yeah, sorry. But you don't have to worry about Charlie he is happily married. Not to me. Just to clarify." She sipped on more of her water.

"So it's Lucus then?" Riley shook her head no. "Then who is the father of your baby?" I questioned her.

"Farkle, don't concern yourself with the father of my child. Everything happens in time. It all works itself out, the way it's meant to be." She looked and her belly and smiled a devilish grin at me. How Riley put that last sentence, I know and she knows I am smart enough to put it together that I am the father. Well the future me.

"How did I become the father of your baby? Holy crap this is insane."

"Now Farkle I can't say everything. That would take out all the fun." She then got up from the chair. Waking over to the stove. She took out the pancake mix and had begun to make a stack of chocolate chip pancakes. She then started a pot of coffee. "Want some pancakes?"

"Sure." I then heard footsteps come down the stairs. It was an older version of me. I had massive bed head. I wore blue checkered pajama pants and a white sleeveless shirt. I had no slippers on. The older me went over to Riley and embraced her in a hug from behind. Kissing her neck. She turned around and then Farkle bent down to kiss her good morning.

"Babe, I told you last night to not make me pancakes. You need to rest as much as you can before the baby comes."

"I don't care it tradition that you get Chocolate chip pancakes on your birthday."

"I can't argue with you once you make up your mind, I hope the baby catches a break from our stubbornness." He then kissed her cheek. She handed him a plate of pancakes. He took the seat to me. Riley then gave me a plate of pancakes as well. Riley then waddled over to her seat next to the older me. We all sat in silence; only the melody of silverware clanking against the breakfast plates. The only thing to break it was the coffee maker beeping to signify that the brew was done. Riley went to get up. But the older me had stopped her and he got up. Pouring himself a cup of coffee into a mug. "You want a cup?" he motioned to me.

"Yes, thanks." He poured me a cup as well. Handing it to me perfectly prepared the way I like it, milk and sugar. Farkle also poured Riley a glass of orange juice and handed it to her.

"Babe, I could have gotten juice for myself. I don't need to be doted on. I am not helpless."

"You are just very pregnant, thanks to me and the impromptu New Year's party thanks to Zay. It will be a great story to tell the baby how it was conceived." Farkle said laughing. As Riley slapped his side.

"How was the baby conceived?" I asked because the older me intrigued me in his story telling skills. Riley almost choked on her orange juice.

"You have to find that one out for yourself. But it was a really fun night. Right babe?" Farkle said chuckling.

"I am not here." Riley huffed. "One Farkle is enough to deal with. I am going to take a bath, since my back is aching. Enjoy your company." Riley motioned to take the dishes but Farkle stopped her. So he began washing the dishes. I got up from the chair to help him. The older Farkle had toned muscle and was about two inches taller than I.

"She is a grumpy one huh?" I playfully joked with my older self.

"Its hormones, she is ready for the baby to come. She really has been a trooper. The doctor measured that the baby may be ten pounds at birth. Even when she is heavily pregnant like this she planned a birthday breakfast for me."

"We lucked out, didn't we?" I asked him.

"We sure did, I even know she planned a surprise birthday party for me. She wants to honor ten years of me being a time traveller. She always tries to be one step ahead of me, but that's impossible with me being a time traveller." He chuckles. Riley comes down the stairs in tears. "What's wrong?" Farkle asks her. Grabbing her shoulders softly.

"Farkle I think it's time. I have been having contractions all morning; I didn't want your birthday ruined like this. I even planned you a birthday and everything." She was all hysterics. She had already taken here bath since her hair was wet.

"We are going to have a baby. We have to go to the hospital." Farkle leaned down and kissed Riley; then wrapped her in a hug. "Come on squirt, I need your assistance and if anyone asks, you are my cousin." He looked at me and then turned his attention back to Riley. "Now sweeties don't be upset, this is a happy moment for us. I'll help you get a fresh set of clothes on and we will get the bags."

"We need to call everyone, the party has to be cancelled, and we have to inform them about what's happening. I have to cancel the catering order." Riley spoke softly.

"We will take care of that, leave it to me. You just focus on the delivery of our baby. Owen will need his Mommy ready." Farkle spoke to Riley. Leaving me in the kitchen just standing there twiddling my thumbs. It didn't even feel like five minutes had passed and the both of them were ready to go out the door. "Come on Squirt." My older self called me over. I assisted in getting Riley in the car.

"Farkle, can you make the calls? Since my husband is driving."

"Sure." She then handed the cell phone to me and a list of who to call first.

Phone List:

Mom and Dad, Auggie and Ava

Minkus Mom and Dad, Felix and Lilly, Nova and Cedric

Grandparents

Maya and Josh

Zay and Charlie

Lucus and Smackle

Catering company

Party guest list

"Wow this is a really detailed list. Are Zay and Charlie a couple?" I asked.

"Farkle shut up, and dial the damn numbers. Try to sound like yourself but older, OKAY!" In that moment she was having a contraction.

I called everyone on the list as instructed sounding like my older self. I walked around the lobby of the hospital. Now finished with all the calls; everyone excited about baby Owen Minkus on the way. I sat in the waiting room trying to not be seen, I had forgotten I hadn't given my older self the phone back. So I found the room.

"GET OUT!" Riley yelled at me. I just handed Farkle the phone again. He mouthed sorry. So I went back into the waiting room. Not even half an hour went by Maya, Josh, my parents, Riley's parents, our siblings and their significant others, Lucus, Smackle, Riley's Grandparents, Zay and Charlie. It was the whole damn party.

"Let me guess you are here to see baby Minkus?" the nurse from behind the desk spoke. Everyone shook their heads in agreement. "Good we have a waiting room for all of you. Except Mom of Riley can go back and be with her." I hid my face in a magazine. The once quite waiting room turned into a place of chaos.

It had been about four hours in the waiting room. The older Farkle made an appearance. He was smiling ear to ear. "The doctor says it's almost time for her to push, I have to go back in there now." The waiting room erupted in whoops and hollers. For what seemed like another hour Mrs. Matthews came out into the waiting room. She was so happy. A big grin on her face.

"Owen Minkus has arrived. Mommy and baby are doing well. The nurse told me for us to take an hour lunch and then we will be ready to meet him." In that moment my stomach growled. I was so hungry, but I had no money to get myself something to eat. "Are you coming with us cousin?" Mrs. Matthews spoke softly to me.

"I don't know if I should come too." I squeaked.

"Come on Squirt." Mr. Matthews said to me and I got up from the seat. I caught up with my parents and everyone. I tried to not stick out. I had many people offer to pay for me, but it was Maya and Josh who paid my tab. I got a burger and fries from the hospital café.

We ate and talked amongst each other. I found out Maya is pregnant today with her first child, she is three months along. Charlie and Zay have no plans for children for at least another two years. Smackle and Lucus are also expecting their first child as well; Smackle is about three months as well. Both of my siblings have children too.

"To my nephew Owen!" Auggie raised a glass, well not a glass but a Coke soda cup. He then took a huge sip.

"To our nephew!" My siblings raised their cups as well, Lilly and Cedric my siblings spouses raised there glasses too.

Mr. Matthews was about to make a toast as well, but then one of the nursing staff yelled no more toasts in the café. Take it elsewhere. Our one hour lunch passed so quickly. It was now time for us to meet the new baby.

The whole gang got up into the waiting room. Amongst all of us we tried to decide who would be first to see Owen.

"Young Farkle should go first." Maya suggested. Everyone nodded in agreement. So I walked into the room. I gently closed it behind me. Riley was sleeping and Farkle was holding his new son.

"You want to hold him?" Farkle asked me. I nodded, so Farkle got up and placed Owen into my arms. "Make sure you support his head."

"How did she do?" I asked him as I sat down in vacant chair in the room; motioning my head at the slumbering Riley.

"She did so well. Owen was ten pounds and seven ounces, twenty-three and a half inches long. She was a trooper. She wanted to stay awake and see everyone meeting Owen. But labor came on so quickly to her. I told her rest." Farkle just spoke with pride. He was all smiles, it was infectious.

"Most, Memorable, birthday, ever!" We said in unison.
