Wicked Wishes, chapter 19
Riots P.O.V
Helena cried the whole night. Both of us stayed up with her doing anything we could think of to make her stop. Nothing worked.
In the morning I had to drive back to Sacramento to get my things and take Ron back. Billie went with me; I let him drive so I could sleep. Adie was going to stay home with Chadd.
"So what do you think about being a new dad?"
"Well I promised her I was going to be a better parent then mine had ever been. I don't want her ending up like me."
Billie Joe nodded. "That's good. But what do you mean ending up like you?"
"Well I know my parents permently fucked me up. There are cetin things about me that are never going to be right. I don't want Helena ending up like that.
"She wont." Billie Joe said.

When we got to Sacramento I remembered Chadd saying we could rent the spare room out to Ron. I asked Ron if he wanted to.
"Hell yeah!"
"Great hold on!" I called Chadd to ask.
"What? Of course he can!"
She seemed happy about the Idea.
Chadds P.O.V
I hung up the phone and sighed. I looked at 80, she was holding Helena.
"Was that your mom again?" She asked. My mom had called 5 times that day.
"No. It was Riot. Rons going to be moving in with us." I rolled my eyes. "I don't have anything against Ron its just when the two of them are together they always do something stupid.
"Riots always done stupid stuff, but when he's with Ron Its stupid on a different level," Adie said laughing.
***
Ron had been living with us for about a week.
I woke up one morning to find Riot sitting on the couch and Ron holding Helena going "Can you say Uncle Ron?" Helena was just looking up at him with her big blue eyes.
"They don't start talking until the are at least one, your wasting your time," I told him.
"Ahhh, Ill get her to say it," he said handing her to me. Riot laughed.
Ron stood up and walked out the door.
"Where are you going?" Riot asked.
"I have business to take care of." He said grabbing his leather jacket and walking out the door.
Riot looked at me.
"Well I have to go to work."
So I was left in the house with Helena. She screamed and cried a lot. Bayzer came over later. She seemed very happy about Ron staying with us.
I went over to Adie's house that afternoon.
Riots P.O.V
Chadd wasn't there when I got home. But Ron was. He was on the phone and had a plastic bag on his lap. I grabbed it and opened it. It was a bag full of joints.
"Are these yours?" I asked him. He had hung up the phone.
"Yeah, but I'm not using them. Just selling them."
"Whatever just make sure Chadd doesn't find them," I said tossing them back at him.
He got up and left again.
At around 8 that night I was sitting on the couch with Chadd. She was holding Helena. The door burst open. It was Ron and a girl and they were all over each other.
"Oh my god," Chadd said burying her face in my neck.
Ron picked up the girl and carried her to his room.
"Hi," she said over his shoulder.
I could hear music blasting from his room.
Chadd looked at me.
Umm..." was all I could say.
