Author's note: I am going to try and incorporate any Kids Inc members that sang with either Stacy and or Ryan. To be honest I didn't really watch the show after Stacy left. I guess you can say I too "aged out". So I don't even know those kids names, let alone anything about them. I hope to eventually include Connie, Gloria, Robin and Mickey...but only where I feel it makes sense.

Disclaimer: Yeah, they are still not mine.

"Ryan can you get the door. It's probably Devon. I'll be out in a second. I'm just finishing up my makeup."

"No problem. I finished my makeup hours ago."

"Haha very funny."

With that Ryan walked past Stacy at the mirror. But not before slapping her on the butt.

"Ryan!"

"What?! You shouldn't have such a cute butt."

Stacy rolled her eyes and continued to finish getting ready. She could hear Ryan open the door.

"Hey Devon."

"Ryan!"

She brought him into a big hug.

"It's so good to see you. It's been too long."

"It's good to see you too. Come in. Stacy is just finishing up getting ready."

"Soooo. You and Stacy! Finally! I wasn't sure if you two were ever going to figure it out."

"It seems like we were the only two in the dark but that has finally been rectified."

"With a little help from your friend the music superstar. Again, congrats on your win! It was amazing to see someone I grew up with win a Grammy and my music students thought is was totally awesome. I think my cool rating went up ten fold!"

"Devon I'm sure you were most kid's favorite teacher before I won a Grammy."

"Maybe but knowing a Grammy winner doesn't hurt."

"Devon!"

"Stacy!"

The two girls hugged.

"Look at you. Being in love definitely suits you."

"Stop. Look at you. An hour and a half on a train from Long Island and you still look perfect."

"Well I try real hard."

The girls laughed and so did Ryan, if only to fit in with the conversation.

"So show me your new kitchen."

"Follow me."

"Oh Stacy it's terrific. Exactly how you said you wanted it."

"Yeah. I'm really happy with it. Can I get you something?"

"No I'm good right now. I just want to hear all about you and Ryan."

"Ok let's go into the den."

"It's all so romantic. Like a fairy tail. I'm so happy for the two of you. But oh boy it took you long enough!"

"You know what, I really wouldn't want it any other way. I was so young...too young...to have a real relationship with Ryan. Nothing we could have had then would have ever compared to what we have now."

"Who knows if back then we could have made it to the future we are planning now?"

"Future you are planning? I don't see a ring, is there something you are not telling me?"

"Not yet Devon but we both know that's where we are headed. Ryan just moved here so he needs to get settled first."

"Oh. But still there is going to eventually be a Kids Inc wedding! Now much fun will that be?!"

"It will be great just to have everyone back together. Living in LA I barely saw anybody."

"Speaking off our friends we should get going. It's getting late. And we all know how my sister feels about people being late."

"We still won't be as late as Rashaan...he is always the last one to arrive."

Ryan said with a chuckle.

"If we want to make sure that holds true we better leave now."
