Diana was halfway through her senior year. She was glad she didn't have to worry about Noah. Roman took him on his days off and when he had to work or go to school, he would drop him off at daycare by his school. Right now they were trying to catch him crawling. Diana was on Thanksgiving break.

"He knows the camera is on him Rome, he's not going to want too", she said, sitting on the opposite side of Roman.

"We need to catch this. I told your brother we would. He comes home with Brie next month", Roman said.

Noah was sitting in front of him and chewing on a block. He would look up at his dad whenever he spoke.

"Can you walk for daddy?", Roman asked him.

Noah smiled. Diana kept the camera rolling, not wanting to miss these little moments either. Roman was wonderful with Noah and she was glad he decided to stay to help her raise him.

"Roman, leave my grandson alone", Sika said, walking into the living room and sitting down.

Sika held his arms out to Noah and Noah got really excited.

"Rome, stand him up", Diana said.

He did as she said and Noah looked a bit frightened.

"Its okay buddy, daddy has you", Roman whispered to his son.

"Come on Noah", Sika said, holding his arms out.

Noah smiled again and took a really small step towards his grandpa. Roman smiled, following behind Noah.

"Come on", Sika encouraged.

Noah laughed softly and continued his pace towards his grandpa. Patricia walked in and smiled.

"He's doing it", she said.

Finally Noah reached his grandpa and Sika pulled him onto his lap.

"That's my boy", he said, kissing his grandson's cheek.

Roman kissed the top of his son's head.

"Did you get it?", he asked.

She nodded.

"We have to show your parents", he said.

Her phone dinged.

"We will. Well, I have to get to work, I'll see you and Noah after", she said.

He nodded.

"Want me to drive you?", he asked.

"Oh no, Chad is giving me a ride. He has the same shift as me", she said, grabbing her coat.

"Chad?", Roman asked, pushing his hands into his pockets.

She nodded.

"So, are you two like", she laughed.

"Me and Chad? No way. I mean, he's a great guy, but I don't feel like dating someone who works with me. It will make things awkward if we were to ever break up. Besides, I seem to remember telling you that dating is not an option for me right now. I want to just focus on Noah, school, and work.", she said.

He nodded. She kissed his cheek.

"You are the only man in my life right now and that's enough", she said.

He smiled and nodded. Seeing Chad pull in.

"I'll see you", she said, before leaving.

He watched her get into Chad's car and drive away. His mom stood beside him.

"Do you ever plan on telling her how you feel?", she asked.

"You heard her, she doesn't want to date right now and if I tell her, its just going to make things weird between us. She's right about focusing on Noah, he's way more important than my feelings", he said.

"I also heard her say you were the only man in her life right now. Maybe this is a good time to tell her", she said, before going over to her grandson.

Roman sighed.


Victor and Brie were back. They had gotten engaged while away. They were also all over Noah, who didn't mind the attention at all. Diana was still wrapping Christmas gifts.

"Are we still going to the mall to take pictures with Santa?", Diana asked.

"Aren't we a little too old for that?", her brother asked.

She rolled her eyes while Brie and Roman laughed.

"I think she was talking about Noah", Brie said.

"Right. Won't he get scared?", Victor asked.

"We won't know till we take him", Diana said.

Brie and Victor nodded. She looked at Roman.

"I know you have work. Want us to wait for you?", she asked.

"If you don't mind", Roman said.

They shook their heads no. Brie nudged Victor and he stood. Grabbing the stick that they had taped a mistletoe to the end of. He set it over their heads and they looked up.

"You have too", he said.

Diana and Roman chuckled softly. He looked at her and started to lean in. Before his lips could press against hers, Noah tapped his dad's face with a block. They laughed.

"Hey buddy", Roman said, sitting his son down on his lap.

"Sorry man, kid doesn't want you to touch his mom", Victor said.

They laughed. He had stayed for dinner and to put Noah to bed. He loved rocking his son and reading to him. Especially now that he was working extra hours. The extra money was being saved to get an apartment for himself.

Diana walked in just as he was laying their son down. They walked out of his room and downstairs. Her mom had packed up some leftovers for him.

"For your lunch at work tomorrow", her mom said.

"Thank you", he said.

Diana walked him out. They stood on her porch.

"So, Santa tomorrow. How about I meet you there? I pass the mall on my way home", he said.

She nodded. Roman worked two towns over. She really didn't like that because sometimes he stayed late and drove back late and tired.

"Okay, then I'll see you and Noah tomorrow", he said.

She nodded. He turned to walk down the steps, but she stopped him. Cupping his face, she kissed him. Pulling away, she blushed.

"I owed you, from earlier", she said.

He smiled.

"Not complaining", he said, chuckling.

She blushed and bit her lip.

"So um, I'll see you tomorrow", he said, walking backwards.

She nodded. She waited till he got in his truck and drove off. Walking back inside, she hit her brother with the door.

"What are you doing?", she asked.

He was rubbing his forehead.

"Watching you kiss my boy", Victor said.

"I owed him after Noah blocked him", she said.

"Is that why you are as red as a tomato?", he asked.

She punched his arm and Brie laughed.


Seth had thrown a wild party last night. Poker, drugs, and naked women, he had a blast. Although he was certain it was the drugs that made it feel that way. He had a major headache this morning.

"Alright. You have Diddy's annual Christmas party tonight and then we leave that to go to Beyonce and Jay-Z's party", Dolph said, coming into his room.

Seth nodded. Grabbing the water that was next to his bed.

"You look like shit. I told you not to throw that party last night", Dolph chuckled.

"Next time I'll listen", Seth replied, throwing the empty bottle in the trash.

"How many times have I heard that", Dolph said, before walking out of Seth's room.

Seth grabbed his phone and called his mom.

"Hey mom, I was wondering if you and dad wanted to come down to L.A. and spend Christmas here? It's much warmer", Seth said.

"We would love too", she said.

"Great, I'll get you your tickets, don't worry about it", he said.

"Seth", she sighed.

"No mom, come on. It's the least I can do", he said.

"Okay", she said.

He smiled. His parents had never asked him for a dime. They were so proud of him, but would that continue if they were to ever find out what he had done? Leaving behind a pregnant teenager. His kid.

"What are you doing mom?", he asked.

"Getting ready for the Reigns Christmas party. It's a tradition to go to those. I wish you were here for it", his mom said.

"Me too, mom, but I'm just so swamped with everything. Planning the tour for after the holidays. I might play at those New Years Eve parties before the ball drops", he said.

"How exciting", she said.

"Maybe you and dad could come to New York and watch it live. I would really love that", he said.

"It's a date", she said.

"Great. So I'll talk to you later. Tell everyone I said hi, especially Diana", he said.

"I will son", she said.

After she hung up with him, she hated not telling him that Diana and Roman had gotten together while he was gone. It would hurt her son too much to know that they had a baby together.


Roman had met them at the mall like they planned. They were a little nervous Noah wouldn't want to sit on Santa's lap. When Roman went to place him, Noah stayed. He looked at the man holding him, confused as to who this man was.

The photographer laughed and took the photo after Roman had made him laugh.

"Wow, he is adorable", she said.

"Thank you", Roman and Diana said.

Roman went to get Noah. Santa waved to him and Noah waved back, although his little hand faced him as he open and closed it.

"Say bye bye Santa", Roman said.

Brie and Diana were looking at the photos.

"Look Roman, we can use this as our family Christmas card", Diana said.

Their son was smiling brightly.

"I like it", he said.

Victor nudged him.

"Family Christmas card huh", he said.

"Stop. That's not what she meant and you know it", Roman said.

They ran into Dean and hugged him. Diana showed him the pictures.

"Alright, I need one of those", he said.

"And you will get one. Also, Roman and I need to speak to you", she said.

He looked between them.

"About?", he asked.

Noah asked for Dean and Roman handed the baby over.

"Being Noah's godfather", Roman said.

"Me? Why? I mean, thanks for thinking of me, but what about Victor and Brie?", Dean asked.

Roman and Diana shook their heads no.

"When the question came up on who would be Noah's godfather, we both said you. We want you, Dean", Roman said.

"As for why. Well, you have been there throughout my entire pregnancy and when I was giving birth, you were there too. You could have ran, but you didn't. Noah loves you, clearly. There is no one else for us or Noah", Diana said.

Dean smiled.

"Thanks guys. I would love to be his godfather", he said.

Diana hugged him and then Roman.

"Dada", Noah said, tapping Dean's face.

"No, no. Daddy is over here", Roman said, raising his hand.


During the Christmas party, Diana tried to avoid bumping into Seth's parents. Dodging them as best she could. There were times were she even had to stop them from seeing Noah. The last thing she wanted was for his mom to see the resemblance and put two and two together.

After she grabbed a drink, she turned. Mrs. Rollins right behind her.

"Hi sweetheart", she said.

"Mrs. Rollins, hello", Diana said.

Roman watched from beside his father on the other side of the room.
