Riley -- I chuckled, "You'll be fine." I say smiling.
I walked into the room and saw Erin laying in the bed holding a baby and a guy I didn't know. Neither of them looked over, so I cleared my throat slightly before I spoke. "Um H-hi."

I walked in a little further, with my hands in my pockets.
"I-I didn't know.. about.." I say slowly, trailing off, gesturing my hand slgihtly toward the baby, with a small knot in my throat.

I look down at the baby and see that he's asleep. "I-It's because I didn't tell you..." I mutter looking down refuseing to meet his eyes.
How did he find out?

Riley motions to Riyann and leaves the room quietly thinking that it'd be better if they both left.
"Why?" I asked moving closer to her. "I-I would've understood... We could've t-talked about it... or something..."

I take a deep breath and rock the baby lightly. I motion to teh chair next to my bed for him and took another deep breath. "I was afraid..." I mutter.

I walk over to the chair and sit down, looking at my hands for a little while until looking up to her and the baby. I shrugged, "What's the worst that could've happend?" I asked quietly, not knowing what to say.

I look over to him and try and smile not sure if it works. I look back down at the baby and kissed his forehead lightly. "Jake Ryan..." I tell Joe.

I smile up at him feeling m face get slightly red. I lay my head back on his shoulder and move a bit closer to him. Just a bit. "You think you'd want to stick around for a bit to see him grow up?"
