Chapter 3: Reunion
Lily and Rose entered Mickey's, unknowing of what they might find.
"Mom, I don't want to be here, I want to go home!" Rose whined.
"Rose, we'll just be here for a few minutes and then we can go," Lily assured her daughter.
"Fine…" She pouted as much as she could.
Lily started cruising through the CDs, looking for nothing in particular. Then, out of nowhere, she heard a voice call, "Well, well, well, look who's back in town."
She looked to where the voice came from. Her sight landed behind the counter where Mickey was standing. "Lily Randall, long time no see. What are you doing back here? I thought you would've made it big in L.A. by now."
Lily gave him a smile. "Hey, Mickey. How's business been?"
"It's been good. We've missed you on open mic nights though."
"Yeah right. Hold on a sec, I want you to meet someone." She waved Rose over and placed her hands on her daughter's shoulders. "Mickey, this is my daughter, Rose."
"Your daughter, really? Who's the father? I know you and Ray had a falling out a while back."
"Just some guy in L.A."
"Okay then…"
"Well, I'm going to find the rest of the crew."
"Parker and Travis aren't here yet but Robbie and Kim are sitting over at the usual table."
"Thanks, Mickey." Lily turned around and walked over to Robbie and Kim with Rose in tow. "Hi, Robbie."
Robbie looked up and dropped his jaw in amazement. "Wow, Lily! You're back!" He got up and gave her a huge hug. "How long has it been?"
"Seven years. Our graduation."
"That's right. You and Ray had that huge fi-"
"Yes, I remember," she replied.
"I would've thought you'd be famous by now."
"It's dog-eat-dog in L.A." She looked over to Kim, who had a semi-round stomach. "Oh my god, Kim you look great. How many months along are you?"
"About four."
"Wow. Which number is this?"
"Number two."
Lily gave her a hug. "That's so great." She looked back to Rose and gave her a push to the front. "Well, Robbie, Kim, I'd like you to meet my daughter, Rose." Rose waved to them.
"Your daughter?" Robbie asked. "Are you married?"
Lily shook her head. "No, actually I'm not, Robbie."
"Then how could you have a daughter?"
"I really don't feel like talking about it."
"Okay, okay." Robbie's gaze floated above her head. "Hey, Travis!" He called.
Lily spun around quickly and saw Travis and Parker walking in their direction. "Hey, you guys."
"Hey?" Parker repeated. "Hey? We haven't seen each other in seven years and all you have to say is hey? Give me a hug."
Lily engulfed her in a hug. "How you doing, Parker?"
"Doing great."
"What about you, Travis?"
He came over and gave her a huge hug. "I'm doing great. What are you doing back in Roscoe?"
"Just nostalgic for the old days."
"Ray had told me that you were back in town but I didn't believe him. He has missed you so much and thought you came back so often that I didn't think he was telling the truth."
"Really, Ray missed me that much?"
Travis's eyes widened. "I said nothing about Ray missing you."
Lily rolled her eyes. "Okay anyways…" She put a hand on Rose's shoulder. "Parker, Travis, this is Rose, my daughter."
"Your daughter?" Parker asked.
"Yep."
"I didn't know you were married," Travis added.
"I'm not." She shook off their inquiry. "How many kids do you guys have?"
"Just one, a six-year-old boy."
She nodded. "That's good. Do you guys have any idea where a good daycare is? I'll need to send Rose to one when I start working."
"Yes, of course, just send her to the one where we send out son," Parker said.
"Well, thanks guys, but we should get going." She gave them a wave and lead Rose out of Mickey's.
AN: Thanks for all the reviews I've been getting. Anyways, please R&R!
