《Oh Baby》If Anyone Falls
Advertisement
Stevie nervously paced around her kitchen waiting for Lindsey to arrive. She bit her nails as she heard a car pull up to the house and rushed to the door before Lindsey could even ring the doorbell.
"Stephanie, what's going on? You're freaking me out here. What's so important you couldn't tell me over the phone or wait until tomorrow?"
"I tried to call you last night but got freaked out when Carol Ann answered the phone. You know, I can't believe you're already seeing someone. That really hurts, Linds. Bringing her into the studio is just so petty. That's supposed to be our, our, sacred place where our passions, good and bad, spill out!"
"She was begging to watch us play. I didn't mean to hurt you, but you don't expect me to sit around and wait until you decide you want to be with me again. Do you know what that does to a man?!" Stevie felt her and Lindsey falling back into the same cycle and fight that they always do. Instead of adding more fuel to the fire, Stevie decided to relax a bit and calm down.
"Listen, I don't want to fight, ok?" Stevie took Lindsey's hand and lead him into her living room. The pair sat before a dimly lit fire.
"Ok, here's the thing. I have to tell you something, but I need to you promise me that you won't get mad or upset or anything. Promise me, Lindsey." Stevie looked sternly towards Lindsey and she noticed a bead of sweat form at his forehead. She could tell he was nervous.
"I promise I won't get mad. Now just tell me what's going on." Lindsey placed his hand atop Stevie's to reassure her.
Stevie takes a deep breath before she continues.

"Well, remember a month ago we were together. And we slept together one last time before that blow out?" Lindsey nods his head. "Well, you see, I was late and so I bought a pregnancy test, and...and, well" Stevie pulls out the pink stick from her pocket and hands it to Lindsey.
"Lindsey, I'm pregnant" Lindsey's mouth goes agape as he tries to process this news. He'd always wanted to be a father and can't believe what's happening. Tears begin to well up in his eyes and he holds Stevie tightly. He's feeling a million emotions at once.
"Stephanie Lynn Nicks, I promise to do everything in my power to protect you and this baby from this moment forward. I- Carol Ann." Lindsey runs towards the phone and starts dialing.
Stevie is surprised, and frankly, a bit annoyed.
"Carol Ann, we're done. I want you out of my house by morning. Something's come up." Stevie couldn't help but smile at hearing that.
Lindsey seemed to not even wait for a reply from the other end of the phone and hung the phone up as quickly as he dialed. He rushed back to Stevie and put his arms around her. For what seemed like hours, he just held her, sitting silently taking it all in.
Lindsey tangled his hand in Stevie's and seemed to study her delicate fingers.
"I think this should go somewhere else, don't you?" Lindsey took the gold band off of Stevie's thumb and placed it gently on her ring finger.
Stevie knew this wasn't his version of a proposal or anything, but she felt happy and safe with the ring back on its intended finger. The couple sat in silence all night, holding each other.

The Limits of Limitless
Author's Note: So, new author here, nice to meet you from this lovely one sided conversation lol. I was so tired of waiting for the perfect story for me so I decided to write a few of my own. These are basically just to make me happy, but if you enjoy them too that would make me happy as well lol. ______________________________________________________________________________________ So once upon a time, there was a convienent, and slightly cliche, plot device used by a somewhat lazy author.... Which in turn, created an easily made story of how a lucky high schooler posing as a hardcore gamer dies only to resurrect in a fantasy reality, meeting beautiful women, powerful dragons and ancient beings, an assortment of insanely escentric fellows, and a certain over powered ring. Journey with them as they explore the wilderness of twisted imagination. Or for you old timey folk who like their synopsis a bit tame, here you go: Jason, a senor in highschool, is slowly failing school due to not giving a fuck. Like many people now in the year 3056, he is obsessed with the wonderful invention most lovingly called, 'True Virtual Realities'. now by using his obsession with his favorite Virtual Reality game called 'Reality Controlled', which is the first and so called best Virtual Reality ever made. it was basically the all around escape humanity wished for, and he with heaven defying luck came across one of the three cheat items the game developers left for themselves: The Limitless Ring. The ring was a support type item and had the ability to grant wishes, store worlds, clone items, grant skills and easily learn abilities. But those are just a few of the things it could do. Using the ring he successfully became the "best player" and had a herd of fans following him everywhere. It was a dream come true. Until, he was killed from a power surge that fried his brain which was hooked up to the Nerve Capsule, an unsafe prototype of the Dive gear that he bought do to low funds. The end. Or so you would think.... ______________________________________________________________________________________ Author's Note: I was, to be honest, wanting to do a collab, because to me it is sooooooo incredibly boring to write by yourself since you always know what happens next, however no one enjoys a bit of friendly cooperation *sigh* so I'm forced to journey these roads alone.... 'Tis but a sad fate tha' 'is here young'un has t' bear. The cover isn't mine, all rights and stuff goes to its artist and such.
