Chapter 4 – Things Are Looking Up
"Nice to see you again, Miss Robinson, Mr. Lynch." the doctor shook their hands.
"Nice to see you too, Dr. McKessy." Becca said, smiling.
"Let's get started shall we." Doctor McKessy said. "So your about 20 weeks now?"
"Yep, half way." Becca said smiling.
"You've really started to pop." Doctor McKessy said.
"Yeah, she's been keeping me up with all her cravings." Rocky said. "The latest is macaroni and ranch dressing."
"It's not that bad." Becca said with a shrug.
"Yeah, except for when you want it at two a clock in the morning." Rocky said.
Becca pouted, and stuck her tongue out at Rocky. Dr. McKessy laughed.
"Alright, let's see the little one shall we?" He put the gel on Becca's stomach and moved it around. He flicked a switch and a whirring sound filled the room.
"Is...is that the baby's heartbeat?" Rocky asked, tears in his eyes.
"Yeah." Becca said smiling at him.
"I love you." Rocky said, kissing her gently.
"Love you too." she said.

"Which ride do you wanna get on, Dels?" Ellington asked, putting his arm around Rydel's shoulder.
"I don't know...maybe the Ferris Wheel?" Rydel said.
Ellington smiled. "Yes babe. The ferris wheel." He took her hand and walked to the ride with her. "You know, I love you."
"I love you too." Rydel said blushing.
Ellington lead her to the seat on the ferris wheel. "Do you know what made me wanna take you here?"
"What?" Rydel asked, as the seat rose in the air.
"The fair is filled with lots of exciting stuff. Games, prizes, and all that makes people happy. Like you." He kissed her on the forehead. "And there are also a bunch of stuff like popcorn, caramel apples, cotton candy. They are sweet, again, like you." He kissed her on the cheek. "And also, there are challenging rides like rollercoasters, haunted houses, those of which only certain people can ride on because those are challenging and it gives people adrenaline rush. Like you." He brushed a strand of hair from her face. "But the only difference is that, the fair is for many people, and it may look good or bad. But you're beautiful, and you're mine." He kissed her on the lips softly.
"Ell!" Rydel said, tears in her eyes.
Ellington smiled at her. "I really, truly love you, Rydel. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me."
"Your the best thing to ever happen to me too, Ell." Rydel said, tears running down her cheeks.
Ellington pulled her close and kissed her hair. "I promise I will never let you down, princess." He said. As they reached the top, he turned to her. "The view up here is beautiful, but it's only beautiful from up here. But you, you are beautiful in so many ways and I wouldn't do anything to lose that." He took out something from his pocket and handed it to her. It was a golden locket. "Open it." He smiled.
"Ell!" Rydel said, speechless.
"I took a picture when you weren't looking." He grinned and took the necklace. "I'll put it on you." He gently put it around her neck, sneaking a kiss on just below her ear.
"When did you take the picture of our wrists?" Rydel asked.
"When you were asleep last night." Ellington grinned. "After that, I printed the pictures and put them in the necklace. And the best part of it," he turned the locket to the back so she could see 'Rydellington' carved on it. "It remains there if the pictures are replaced."
"Ell!" Rydel said, "I...I don't know what to say! I love you."
"You don't have to say anything." Ellington smiled. "I love you too." He kissed her as the ride started to go down.

"Everyone should be getting back soon." Riker mumbled from where he and Ross were cuddled up on the couch.
"Aww too bad. I wanna be alone with you forever." Ross grinned, resting his head on Riker's chest.
"Someday we'll have little ones running around, and we'll want these moments back, but then when we get them back we'll just want to hear the pitter-patter of little feet again. Ironic isn't it?" Riker said.
"Yeah, it is." Ross sighed. Then he chuckled. "Gee, what's gotten you thinking about having kids so suddenly? Not that I don't want kids, I do, but I mean it's so fast and I don't know if I can handle them, but then again you said 'someday', so I just got the conclusion tha-" he stopped. "I'm rambling again aren't I?"
"Just a little bit." Riker said, he kissed the corner of Ross' mouth. "It's cute."
"You tease." Ross whined, then he kissed Riker's lips. "That's what I like."
"Oh, so I should always kiss you like...this?" he kissed Ross' cheek. "Okay, that's what I'll do."
"No." Ross pouted. "Kiss me on the lips." He gave him puppy dog eyes. "You know you can't resist this."
Riker looked away, "Nope not gonna happen."
"Rikey." Ross whined and climbed onto his lap. "Pwease?"
Riker looked away, "No. I'm not looking. I'm not falling for it." He peeked quickly at Ross before turning back away.
Ross pouted and folded his arms. "You're a meanie."
Riker turned to look at him and glared playfully at him. "You take that back."
"Or what?" Ross stuck his tongue out at him.
Riker's eyes twinkled mischeiveously, in one swift move he pinned Ross underneath him on the couch. "Take it back now?" he asked.
"Nope." Ross said, popping the 'p'. "Now kiss me, devil." He grinned.
"Not till you take it back." Riker said, leaning back and crossing his arms.
"Fine I take it back." Ross pouted. "Now kiss me." Riker leaned down and kissed him sweetly. Ross smiled through the kiss. He put his hand behind Riker's neck and pulled him down lightly. Riker moved his arms to hold himself up, so he wouldn't crush Ross' their lips still moving together. Ross moaned and moved both his arms up to his soulmate's body, bringing himself up. Riker's hands moved under Ross' shirt, tracing his muscles. Ross breathed out and moved his hands across Riker's chest, moving it down slowly. Riker moved down to Ross' neck kissing, and sucking as his hands moved down to the edge of Ross' shirt. He started gently tugging it up. Ross let him pull his shirt off, as he moaned from the kisses he got. Riker moved even lower kissing Ross' chest and stomach. He sucked a dark mark on Ross' hip bone. Ross ran his hand through Riker's hair, making a small tug. Riker moaned against Ross' stomach. He moved his hands to Ross' thighs, squeezing gently. Ross bit his lip, pulling Riker's shirt off while letting out a loud moan. Riker's hands moved even higher, until they reached the top of Ross' jeans. Riker fiddled with the button.
Ross lightly pushed his hand away. "Not now." He whispered.
Riker moved his hands and sat up, "Can we still kiss?"
Ross bit his lip and nodded. "Yes." He took his shirt off the floor and put it back on. "But not right now. I'm actually tired. I just wanna cuddle up right now, is that okay?" He pecked his soulmate's lips.
"Cuddles are always okay." Riker said, pulling his shirt back on, and opening his arms for Ross to climb in.
"I absolutely love you." Ross leaned against him. He sighed, "You know it's not that I don't want to do it, I really want to, but it's a little too quick and you know..."
"Baby, your rambling again." Riker said, smiling, "I get it, baby. Really I do. We can wait. We'll do things at your speed. I've waited four years to tell you you were my soulmate. I think I can do a little more waiting for you." He kissed the top of Ross' head. "I love you."
Ross blushed. "Thanks Rikey. But I feel bad for making you wait too long." He paused. "But why did you wait four years to tell me? Why didn't you just tell me immediately?" He asked in curiosity.
"I didn't want you to think I was lying our something. And then mom said it would probably be better to wait till you got your mark." Riker said, with a shrug.
"Oh." Ross said, moving closer. "How come dad didn't know before I got mine?"
"I made mom promise not to tell him." Riker said, "I was so scared of what he'd think. I didn't want him to know."
"Well at least none of that matters now." Ross smiled. "I like how things turn out now."
"Yeah. Everything's pretty great right now." Riker said.
