It's been two months since Riker's cancer hit him hard and he's a little better. Reyna walked into the room and looked at Riker. "hey daddy" Reyna sighed "hey baby girl" Riker smiled. Reyna walked over and kissed her dad on the cheek. "Daddy are you going to die?" Reyna asked "baby I'm fighting my hardest, I promise I'm trying and if I do die I want you to keep your promise and change the world" Riker explained "I promise I will. I will do it for you" Reyna smiled and kissed Riker's cheek then hugged him. "I love you Reyna" Riker sighed then looked at Rocky. "hey Rocky" Riker sighed "Hey Rikey" Rocky sighed.
Rocky walked over and kissed Riker. "I love you, more than anything" Rocky told Riker "I love you too. more than anything" Riker replied then the doctor walked in. "here's your medicine" The doctor said handing Riker a pill and some water. Riker swallowed the pill and yawned . "get some sleep" The doctor said so Riker nodded.
Reyna watched Riker fall asleep then left with Rocky.
Reyna went up to her room and pulled out her computer that Rocky bought her. She got an idea when she was talking to Riker. She started typing and about an hour later she had a song. She ran downstairs and grabbed an acoustic guitar. She was on her way upstairs trying not to get noticed but that failed. "hey what are you doing with my guitar?" Ross asked "I'm gonna play it" Reyna said "be careful with it" Ross said "ok, I will" Reyna said and went back to her room.
A few hours later Reyna had written a song with an acoustic guitar part. She sighed and started playing the guitar, she started singing. She got it right the first time then changed into a hot pink shirt, a leather jacket, black leggings, a hot pink tutu, black converse and a hot pink bandanna in her hair. She turned the camera on her computer on and sighed. "hi, I'm Reyna Lynch, I'm eight years old and my daddy has lung cancer, I promised him I'd change the world so I wrote this song for him" Reyna said standing there. She picked up the guitar and strummed a few notes. "this is called I Promise" Reyna said and started playing. She started singing and smiled a little.
She finished and was in tears. "please share this, I love my daddy and I want to change the world. for him" Reyna sniffled and turned off the camera. She went over the video and was happy with it. She went on youtube and noticed Rocky had logged onto the R5 youtube channel. She shrugged and uploaded her video. She sighed and closed the laptop. She changed into regular clothes and returned the guitar to where she got it.
Reyna went and found Rydel. "Aunt Delly can we make cookies like gramma Storm's?" Reyna asked "of course sweetie, I love making cookies" Rydel smiled "I love when you make cookies so I can eat them" Ellington smiled "same" Ross agreed. Reyna followed Rydel into the kitchen and washed her hands.
Rocky got a text from Andre asking about Reyna.
TEXT- FROM: ROCKY TO: ANDRE- why are you asking about my daughter? is there a problem?
TEXT- FROM: ANDRE TO: ROCKY- go look at the R5 youtube channel
TEXT- FROM: ROCKY TO: ANDRE- ok
Rocky went to the R5 youtube channel and noticed a new video. He watched it and saw Reyna singing. He got up and went to the kitchen.
Rocky hugged Reyna and sniffled "I'm proud of you baby" Reyna was confused then remembered the video. "oh you saw my video" Reyna said "video?" Rydel asked so Rocky pulled out the ipad and went to the living room. He set the ipad on the coffee table and played the video. "whoa I have over a million views" Reyna smiled as she watched the number of views grow. "Reyna you keep trying to change the world. you have a lot of success in the future" Ross smiled "thanks Uncle Rossy" Reyna smiled then courtney walked into the room. "hey court" Ross smiled "hey Rossy" Courtney smiled "Reyna I saw the video and it was amazing, oh and I ran into Ellen and gave her Rocky's phone number" Courtney smiled then Rocky's phone rang.
Rocky hung up and smiled at Reyna. "Reyna Ellen wants you to do an interview and perform your song live on her show" Rocky smiled "Oh my gosh! I wanna do it! Daddy you told her I could right?" Reyna asked "baby you are changing the world and chasing your dreams, of course I said yes" Rocky smiled and hugged Reyna. "when am I going to be on the show?" Reyna asked "tomorrow" Rocky smiled "what time?' Reyna asked "we have to be there around noon" Rocky explained "ok" Reyna smiled and went back to the kitchen to finish making cookies.
Reyna wore the same outfit from the video except in blue because it's Riker's favorite color. "Reyna which guitar do you want?" Ross asked so Reyna walked into the room and picked up the acoustic guitar. Ross put the guitar in a case then picked it up. "let's go" Rocky smiled so everyone went out to the car.
They got to the set and the show was about to start so Rocky texted Riker to turn on the Ellen show.
"Hello everyone and welcome to the Ellen show, Today I'd like to introduce special guest and overnight pop princess Reyna Lynch" Ellen smiled so Reyna walked out on stage and sat int the chair next to Ellen. "Hello Reyna, how are you?" Ellen asked "I'm good and really happy I'm here" Reyna smiled "so let's talk about this video" Ellen smiled "so did your mom or anyone help you make the video?" Ellen asked "what mom?" Reyna asked "don't you have a mother?" Ellen asked "no I have two dads and nobody helped me. Actually nobody knew about it until after I posted it" Reyna smiled "oh wow and you are how old?" Ellen asked "I'm eight years old" Reyna smiled "you are extremely smart for an eight year old" Ellen said "thank you" Reyna smiled. "so what did you promise your dad and why?" Ellen asked "I promised my dad I'd change the world because he believes in me and told me I could, I want to change the world for him and help him get over his cancer" Reyna explained "that's a big promise and you're going to change the world by singing?" Ellen asked "yes, everyone loves music and listens to it more than anything else so I'm going to sing to change the world" Reyna smiled "well I got you something to help you get there" Ellen smiled and pulled out a large box. "open it" Ellen said so Reyna stood up and opened the box. She pulled out what was inside and saw it was a guitar case. She opened it to see a brand new pink acoustic guitar. "Oh my gosh this is amazing! do I get to keep it?" Reyna asked "of course, it's a gift for you" Ellen smiled "thank you so much" Reyna smiled "your welcome and After the break we will see Reyna sing her song" Ellen smiled and they cut for commercial. Everyone set up the stage and Ross tuned Reyna's new guitar for her. "ok you're good to go" Ross smiled adjusting the strap so it fit her correctly. Reyna walked out on stage and stood in front of the microphone. "and we're back for a wonderful performance by Reyna Lynch singing her song I promise dedicated to her father with lung cancer" Ellen smiled then the camera switched to Reyna. Reyna sang her song smiling the whole time.
Reyna finished singing and was in tears again. Ellen walked over and hugged her. "Sweetie it's ok" Ellen said "I know, I just love my daddy and want him to get better" Reyna sniffled "he will" Ellen told her so she nodded "Thanks for tuning in everyone see you next time" Ellen smiled then the camera cut. Rocky walked out and hugged Reyna. "you Dad texted me and he said he's proud of you and he wishes he could hug you right now" Rocky said "I wish he could be here right now" Reyna sighed and Rocky picked her up. "I do too, I wish he didn't have cancer" rocky sighed "I love you daddy, you aren't going to leave me if he dies are you?" Reyna asked "baby I will never leave you" Rocky assured her. "hey Rocky, I didn't realize you were gay, who's your husband?" Ellen asked "Riker Lynch" Rocky said "your brother?" Ellen asked "yes, we are legally married and got approved by a judge and all that so it's not wrong" Rocky said "ok well I'm so sorry about Riker" Ellen said "it's fine, we are all ok and about to head over to see him" Rocky sighed and picked up Reyna's guitar. "thank you" Reyna smiled "thank you for coming" Ellen smiled and watched them leave.
Reyna ran into Riker's hospital room and hugged him. "I love you Reyna" Riker sniffled "I love you too daddy" Reyna sniffled and cried into Riker's chest. "daddy I want you to be better so you don't hurt anymore" Reyna sniffled "I want to be better too so you don't have to spend your life worrying about me instead of having a normal life having fun with your two dads" Riker sighed "I still can once you get better" Reyna sniffled "I will get better just for you and Rocky so we can be a happy normal family" Riker said and hugged Reyna. Reyna laid in bed with Riker and cuddled close to him.
