Dudley had never been to New York before, but he and Romy were going to America to visit Rex and Rider and their baby. Romy had been wanting to do it for ages and Dudley had saved up the money and surprised her with plane tickets for her birthday, so now they were doing Christmas in New York City. There was a baby and gay porn stars involved, but it was still going to be the most romantic trip ever. Dudley was counting on it.

He was all bundled up in his winter coat and scarf as he and Romy rode the lift up to the top of the Empire State Building. "Are you going to be warm enough at the top?" he asked, looking down at his girlfriend who he was about to try and make his fiance. "I could give you my scarf."

"I know you're in love with him," Rider said, snorting. "Everyone knows you're in love with him. don't be stupid." He took a bite of his own sandwich and shook his head. "Being with someone doesn't mean being Romy, you ninny. Rex and I are together and we're fucking porn stars."

"Daddy said a bad work," Xavier informed his mother, looking up at her and smiling. "I'm not allowed to say it."

"Nobody likes a tattle tale, Xavier," Rider informed his son, pushing Xavier's lunch closer to him. "Fill your mouth with food, kid. Maybe you should just cut him off, like you suggested."

Pyxis laughed at that and kissed Xavier's cheek. "It's okay. Daddy is an adult. He can say dirty words all that he wants." She told him with a laugh, running her fingers through her hair.

She looked up at Rider and sighed. "I don't want to hurt him. You know?" She shook her head. "I'll worry about it later."

Later came way too fast. Pyxis left her phone behind as she took off to travel to Thailand. By the time she was three months pregnant, Pyxis didn't know what to do. She was living on Bamboo Island and living off the land.

Romy looked at Dudley, letting out a soft sigh as she did. "We have to tell him." Her voice was low. Walden was just in the other room. "I know it's not our place, but she's being stupid and rash."

Dudley chewed on his bottom look as he looked Romy over. "I don't know. It's her decision, isn't it?" Then again, Romy was pregnant with him around and she had trouble sometimes. Pyxis was living by herself on an island in the middle of Thailand and didn't have anyone to help her.

"You're right," he said, running a hand through his hair. "It's Walden's baby too. Do you want to tell him? Should we do it together?"

	"Either way you want to do it." Romy told him, then brushed their lips together softly. "But, we need to tell him. I can't handle him not knowing. Not with my pregnancy hormones." Romy walked into the living room and gave Walden his cup of tea. "Wallie. We know where she is and we know why she left. She's pregnant." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Walden blinked at Romy for a moment, the cup of tea slipping from his hands. "You -- she's pregnant?" he repeated. "Shit, I..." He looked at the tea on the floor, hurrying to try and clean it up.

"I'll get it," Dudley said, waving Walden up and grabbing some tissues to mop up the tea. He picked up the cup and sauce, putting them on the table. "She got pregnant the night of our wedding, according to our math."

Walden was just... staring at them. Pyxis was pregnant. Pregnant with his baby. "Why didn't she tell me? Why did she just stop talking to me?" He got to his feet. "I need to go. I need to find her."

	Romy looked at Walden for a moment, then let out a soft sigh. She should have been less... Well. She was a bitch, basically. She sighed softly and looked him over. "Do you have the money to fly to Thailand?" Romy asked him. "She's living on some beach by herself and eating whatever she finds. At least, that's what Rider tells me."

Walden didn't like the sound of that at all, even if he knew Rider was probably mangling things in translation. "That --" He ran a hand through his hair, trying to calm himself down. "Fuck. I think I have the money. I'm not sure. I was saving for a ticket before she stopped talking to me."

He ran his hands over his face. "God." Living on a beach. Eating what she found. Walden paused, looking up at Romy and Dudley again. "I know where she is. She's on Bamboo Island."

"I'll give you the rest of the money you need for a ticket." Romy promised him, shaking her head. "I have my father's inheritence now. It's worth it to see you two get together again."

Pyxis wasn't doing horribly on her own on the Island. She was still able to travel by boat to find food if she couldn't find anything on the island. And there were other people who were staying there too and they were helping her out.

She was laying on her side in her tent, eating a fruit salad and reading a book, feeling comfortable. She wouldn't and couldn't ruin Walden's life.

Walden had had a long journey to Bamboo Island from the airport. He'd been on buses and the back of scooters. He'd been on boats and he'd walked. A lot. But he'd fallen in love with the place over the course of the two days it had taken him to get there and he was already thinking about how nice it would be to just... stay.

He followed the directions he was given to Pyxis's tent, feeling very nervous about this. Walden didn't want her to be mad at him. He just wanted to surprise her. Like a good surprise. Walden stopped in front of Pyxis's tent, clearing his throat. "Pyxis?"

	Pyxis was not expecting to hear Walden's voice anywhere near where she was. And yet, there he was. She looked up at him for a moment, feeling extremely guilty and tried to hide her belly with his t-shirt she had laying beside her. "What are you doing here?" Pyxis asked, frowning. "It's Tuesday. You're supposed to be teaching history." (Reply to this)(Parent)
