Riley POV
What if? What if I had never liked dance? What if I hadn't join The Next Step? What if I never got into A-Troupe?
What if I never met James? What if I never fell in love with him? What if he never kissed Beth? What if that night didn't happen? What if I didn't leave The Next Step?
That's what I'll question my whole life so many questions running through my mind.
But I'll never be able to change what has happened.
Just as we finished Internationals I found out I was pregnant with James baby. I didn't want to tell anybody because I was scared so one day I just disappeared.
But as I'm sat at the table a year and half later with a piece of paper in my hands I rethink everything.
Riley,
You are invited to a celebration of The Next Step keeping our title at Regionals champions. Hope you can make it.
Yours Sincerely
James
James? Why was his name at the bottom what had happened since I wasn't there?
Even though I didn't really want to go I was intrigued at what I had missed. Maybe I would go!
My thoughts were interrupted by the crying of my son Sammy.

James POV
Right now I am setting up the party that is being held for our win at Regionals. After Internationals and Riley left, Miss Kate got a job offer and took it and asked me to take over the studio and obviously I had said yes. But sometimes I wished Riley was here with me still to help run the studio.
I had invited Riley to the party because she was part of the team that one Regionals, Nationals and Internationals but I'm not sure if she got it because I sent it to the address Emily thought she still lives in. But I don't know where she is.
My thoughts are broken when everyone starts coming into the studio.
Riley POV
I walk into the studio looking at everything remembering all the good times that I had here. I look down at my sleeping baby and I whisper down to him.
R-Don't worry baby, we're not staying for long.
I take a deep breath and walk in no one turns their head to see who it is which I'm thankful for.
But as I'm sighing in relief one voice I really didn't want to hear talks.
J-Riley?
R-Yeah
J-OMG it's really you.
R-Yeah
J-Can I talk to you?
R-Sure
We walk over to an empty corner and he's quick to start talking.
J-Where did you go?
R-I left to do something
J-What?
I looked down at my beautiful baby boy and smiled.
R-Sammy
J-Who's is he?
I think for a moment before answering. Could I really tell him?
R-Yours
J-Mine?
R-I'm so sorry I just thought you would freak if I told you and you would hate me and tell me to get rid of him.
As I'm freaking out James pulls me into a hug while shushing me and kissing the top of my head.
J-I love him, I love you. I've got you both back now. And I'm not letting you go again.
