The anger that Tim Riggins felt did not wane at all during the night and when morning arose and the sun began to shine over the town of Dillon; Tim knew that it was his duty as a father to take care of his daughter and the new life she was creating, especially if the father was treating her like crap. He was pulled suddenly from his thoughts by his daughter pulling herself from the bed in which he had laid with her last night in a bid to comfort her enough so she could get some rest; Chloe sat up for seconds before bolting to the bathroom and puking up anything left in her stomach. He rushed to her side, pulling her from her face and wetting a washcloth to run over her heated forehead. "Sweetie, let's get you off the floor and back to bed. I'll make you some tea." The worry evident in Tim's voice as he was sure that the morning sickness was over but was now starting again. As he lifted her off the floor, he saw how devastated she was and his heart began to break all over again. Placing her back in bed and drawing the covers back up to warm her shivering body before stepping out of the room to make a call.
Noah woke up hungover and confused about what had gone on in the past 12 hours. He could remember Chloe and someone storming out upset but what did that have to do with him. Suddenly his door is banged opened and in walks his father and grandfather with pissed off faces.
Five minutes later, he was sitting at the dining room table with last night's shirt on and a pair boxers, his entire family sending him disappointed looks and he shot back confused eye rolls. "Will someone tell me what I supposedly did or at least let me sleep this headache off, because I am really not in the mood for a lecture this morning." Matt slams his hand on the table causing both Noah and Julie to jump slightly. "I am so over this attitude that no matter what you do, it's okay because you're the quarterback, well guess what you did get your fifteen year old girlfriend pregnant and until you start to become honest with her and the rest of us about how badly you screwed up, I don't want to hear another word about how life is so hard for you. When I was sixteen, a man was paralysed in a football game meaning I had to step up all whilst earning to pay for my grandmother's medical bills. At no point has your mother ever left you without a warning nor has your father gone off to a war zone leaving you with only your grandmother who was losing her mind. None of that happened but yet you still seem to think the world has done wrong by Noah Saracen and I am over it. There is a poor girl sitting in her bedroom sobbing her eyes out because four days she lost a baby but her good for nothing boyfriend won't admit she's even pregnant to anyone else but acts like a saint and you know what Noah that pisses me off to think that I raised a boy who could treat the mother of his child that way and I won't blame Billy and Tim when they come here and try to murder you!" Matt finished yelling and stormed out the house slamming the door on his way out. "Mom..." Noah looked at her for reassurance that everything would be okay but all that was returned was a blank look of disappointment before she too left the house with Principal Taylor following behind her. "Noah, I know you didn't mean to get her pregnant but you did and guess what you are accountable for your actions so get dressed and meet me at the car and start thinking about what you are going to say to the poor girl and her family.
Tyra and Mindy were in the kitchen cooking Sunday lunch while the three Riggins sat on the couch watching Making A Murderer, the clan were trying to get Chloe's mind off Noah and let her have a relaxing day. "I take real offense at the fact that you think I'm as stupid as this guy, I mean please, yes there may be some similarities between us but I am nowhere near as dumb. Right babe?" Billy looked to Mindy for support who absentmindedly nodded while Chloe and Tim laughed at his outrage.
A knock at the door pulled them from there conversations and the entire household tensed, Billy and Tim began making their way to the door whilst Tyra and Mindy walked over to the couch sitting on either side of Chloe.
Wrenching the door open, Billy and Tim glared and sighed at the person on the other side of the door. "What are you doing here? Huh? Come to make her cry again? Go ahead, the calling her fat was very effective." Tim spat the words at him resisting the urge to punch him in the face. Billy kept an arm on his shoulder not allowing him to get any closer. "Tim," noticing the pained look on his face when he said that Noah changed tactic. "Uh, Mr Riggins, I really do but last night I was drunk and she wasn't having fun and I made a decision that was pretty stupid and obviously completely false and I know now that I've had time to think I've realised how much I love and support your daughter and I hope to over time get your trust back and earn some respect." He glances hopefully at the two men and Billy walks away before returning with Chloe, which makes Noah pale in the face when he sees her come to the door and stand beside her father. "Oh hi, can we maybe talk somewhere?" Tim nods at her and she walks out the door and sits on the outdoor chair. "I just wanted to apologise and say that anything I said last night wasn't true and you know I love you and I want us to be together, you know that right?" Noah glances at her but the gesture isn't returned and she stands back up and makes her way to the door. "I won't stop you being a part of the baby's life because I know what only having one parent is like but we aren't going to be together." With that she walks inside and Noah breaks down in tears.
