Author's Note: Okay guys, I am so sorry for the wait. Something really serious happened and it left me with no time to update or simply not in the mood to do anything, including updating. However, my updating will slow dramatically because of this situation as it is still not quite over. Sorry for rambling, here's the chapter, which takes place a couple months from the previous one. (Warning: One scene may have controversial content, so don't say I didn't warn you.) [You'll know which one I'm talking about.]

Audrey screamed as she was in the car. Benson drove as fast as he could, talking to his wife trying to calm her down. Audrey was going into labor. Benson was sweating trying to calm his wife while carefully driving over the speed limit. He wasn't prepared for this at all. Even though the hospital was twenty minutes away, it felt like hours.

Finally, he pulled up to the hospital and helped his wife out of the car. They raced inside and went to the lady at the desk.

Mordecai woke up to hear his phone buzzing. He looked outside to see it was still dark out. He graoned and reached for his phone to see who it was.

Skips?

Skips almost never used his phone. The yeti only used it for emergencies, because he said that "certain spirits could track him down." Mordecai put the phone to his ear.

"Skips? Why are you calling me so early?" Mordecai looked at the clock to see it was three in the morning.

"Mordecai, you and Margaret need to get ready and go to the hospital because Audrey is going into labor."

"What!?" Mordecai tossed the phone to the side and nudged Margaret awake.

"Huh? Mordecai? What's the matter?" The robin rubbed her eyes.

"Margaret, we need to leave now. Audrey just went into labor."

Margaret's eyes shot open, "She's what!?" Margaret jumped off the bed and grabbed a sweater, and in a matter of seconds she was ready to open the door. "C'mon Mordecai, we have to leave now!"

Rigby woke up to a buzzing sound. He reached to the nightstand thinking it was his alarm, but the clocked said it was half-past three AM.

"Huh?" He picked up his phone to see Mordecai was calling him. He pressed the button and put the phone to his ear. "Mordecai, you better not be butt dialing me in your sleep."

"Shut up dude! I need you to grab Eileen and go to the hospital, now! Audrey's having the baby!"

"She wha- OW!" Rigby fell of the bed, "Where are you guys?"

"Margaret and I are driving over there! Hurry!"

Rigby hung up and lifted himself up. "Eileen!" He yelled.

"Rigby what's wrong?" Eileen sat up, scared that something bad had happened.

"Audrey's having the baby! Mordecai said we have to go to the hospital now!"

"Oh my gosh, really?!"

"Yes yes, now we have to go, come on!"

Rigby and Eileen ran through the doors to see the rest of park crew with bed-hair and half-open eyes, excluding Skips and Hi-Five Ghost.

"It's about time!" Muscle Man yelled.

"Sorry! We're kind of far from here. How's everything?"

"Benson and Audrey are in the other room. The doctors said it may take a while." Skips spoke up. Rigby and Eileen took the chairs next to Mordecai and Margaret, and waited.

After an hour, Rigby fell asleep. It seemed to be contagious as more of the park crew started to fall asleep as well. After another hour, Mordecai, Skips, and Hi-Five Ghost were the only one's awake. Right when Mordecai's eyelids started feeling heavy, the doors burst open, waking everyone up.

"Are you all here for Benson and Audrey?" The doctor asked. Everyone nodded their heads. "OK, can I get his closest friends and family to come in first please?" Skips and Pops stood up and followed the doctor through the doors. A few minutes later, the doctor gave the OK for the rest of the crew to come in. The first thing Mordecai saw was Benson sitting on the bed where Audrey and a blue bundle of blankets were laying on. Audrey passed the bundle to Benson, who passed it to Muscle Man. Muscle Man was trying to hold back a smile, but failed. He passed it to HFG, and after that it was passed to Mordecai. Mordecai smiled at the little gumball machine that was sucking on his thumb in his sleep. Margaret looked over her fiance's shoulder to see the baby. She awed at the sight and handed it to Eileen, who also said "Aww," When Rigby was holding the baby, he said,

"Would you look at that, who knew the boss had a life?"

"Rigby!" Mordecai would've punched him if he wasn't holding the baby.

"Hey! Shut your mouth and give me my son!" Benson took the baby from Rigby. When Benson had the baby, Mordecai stepped on Rigby's foot.

"OW!"

"Do you have a name picked out yet?" Margaret asked, ignoring Rigby's cries.

Benson and Audrey looked at each other. "We decided on Brandon. We thought he just looked like one." Audrey smiled at Brandon. Eileen Awed again.

"What a terrific name!" Pops clapped.

"Congratulations Benson/Aww, I'm so happy for you Audrey/You know who else names their kid Brandon?" The rest of the park crew said at the same time. After some more chatting, and everyone held the baby again, people started to go back home. Margaret couldn't stop thinking about the little gumball machine that wrapped his hand around Margaret's finger on the way home.

Keelan was still staying with Mordecai and Margaret. The apartment he had his eye on got taken before he had enough money to get it. He found another little house, but it costed a lot more than the apartment. The human got up and started to walk to the bathroom, but noticed through the open door that Mordecai and Margaret weren't in bed.

"Huh?" He walked to the kitchen and saw that they weren't home. He looked in the rest of the rooms to make sure. Right when he walked back to the living room after checking the closet, he saw the two avians walk through the door.

"Where have you been?" Keelan asked, raising his arms.

"Sorry Keelan, we were at the hospital."

"What? Did something bad happen?"

"No my bosses wife gave birth." Mordecai tossed his keys on the table.

"Oh well, that's cool."

"Yeah, sorry for telling you Keelan, but we had to go right away."

"Yeah, yeah don't worry abou-"

"Well, I'm going back to bed, see ya guys." Mordecai walked into the bedroom and flopped on the the bed.

"Heh, sorry."

The next day, at the park:

Benson was signing some paperwork when he heard a knock at the door. He looked up to see Mordecai rubbing the back of his neck.

"What do you want? Aren't you supposed to be working?"

"Uh, th-that's the thing, I um, was wondering if I could getaraise, 'cause of my wedding and stuff."

"Could you get a what?"

Mordecai sighed, "Could I get a raise?" Benson gave him a blank stare.

"No."

"Aw what! Why not?"

"Ugh, Mordecai, I don't think this is the job for you."

Mordecai's eyes widened, "No Benson! Please don't fire me!"

"I'm not firing you. It's just you've been asking for a lot of raises lately and this job just isn't really a high-paying job. Plus, I have a son to take care of right now so I need all the money I can get."

Mordecai sighed, "D-Do you have any suggestions?"

"Look in the newspaper."

"Aw what! Benson, no one reads the paper anymore!"

"Well you better start."

"Ugh!" Mordecai left the room and started to walk down the stairs but realized that Rigby had changed the channel, but something was... off about what he was hearing. He stopped walking so he could hear better.

"I used to wonder what friendship could be.."

"The hell?" Mordecai ran down the stairs, "Rigby?! What are you watching?!"

"AHHH!" Rigby turned off the TV. "Uh, n-nothing. Why?"

"Rigby..." Mordecai walked towards the couch, "what were you watching?"

"I told you! Nothing!"

"So you were just staring at the blank screen?"

"Uhh..."

"Give me the remote!" Mordecai jumped at him.

"NO!" Rigby tried to run away but Mordecai grabbed his tail. "AHH!"

"Give. Me. The remote!" Mordecai punched Rigby in the arm, making him drop it. Mordecai grabbed it. "Hahaha!" Mordecai pressed the power button.

"...Frieeends!" Mordecai stared at the TV with his beak parted while Rigby cringed behind his tail. Mordecai was still standing in shock as he watched the candy-colored horses trot across the screen.

"M-Mordecai?" Rigby peeped. Mordecai bit his lip.

"Pfftt.."

"Are you alright?"

"Hegh,"

"Mord-"

"BAHAHAHAHA!" Mordecai collapsed on the couch, dropping the remote. "Y-You, you were watching m- hahahaha!" The blue jay could hardly get a word out as he was laughing too hard. Tears started to stream down his face.

Rigby started to get annoyed. "Yeah yeah, I was watching-"

"My lit-he hehe HA HA HA ha ha. Little- pfffft hehe."

"So what?"

"So what?" Mordecai sat up, still giggling. "You. Were. Watching. My Little-"

"Yeah Yeah! Get to your point."

"Dude... that's a little girl's toy."

"No! Well... yeah, but it's a good show, man!" Rigby clenched his fists.

"Ha How?"

"Well, it's good quality, and teaches good lessons an-"

"Good lessons? Since when did you care about learning a lesson?"

"Shut up! It's just better then you'd expect from a show like this."

"What do you mean by, 'a show like this'?"

"A show for.. for-girls." The raccoon mumbled the last part.

"HA! So it it is for girls!"

"NO! It's meant for kids and their parents." Rigby crossed his arms.

"Whatever man. That's still pretty gay. Anyway, I have to go meet with Margaret about wedding stuff." Mordecai left out door while Rigby sat down and turned on the TV again.

"Jerk."

Margaret's apartment:

"Margaret! I'm back!" Mordecai called.

"Hi Mordecai!" Margaret walked out of the kitchen and gave him a hug. "Did you get the raise?"

"Uh, about that," Mordecai rubbed the back of his neck, "I think I have to look for a new job."

"He fired you!?"

"No no no! He just didn't give me a raise 'cause I've been asking for a lot of them lately and he thinks I need a higher-paying job."

"Oh," Margaret relaxed a little. "Well, we can work with that. Your pay is still higher than when you first started working there."

"Yeah that's good." Mordecai relaxed, knowing that Margaret would've freaked out if he did get fired.

"I'm so glad were getting married." Margaret interrupted his train of thought with a hug. Mordecai hugged her back.

"Me too."

"Hey guys, not to ruin your moment, but the toilet's clogged." Keelan walked to the living room with a roll of toilet paper.

OK, there's that chapter. Again, I'm sorry I haven't updated in like a month, just, something came up. On happier news; Benson has a son! Yay! And about that scene, my friend really wanted me to put that in there, so, yeah. Also, after chapter 21, there will be a bachelor party chapter, then the wedding chapter, then a honeymoon chapter, so be prepared for that. Until then,
