It's November 5th 1991. Megadeth had gotten highly famous. So you decided to go to a megadeth concert with some of your friends and before you knew it you were backstage. between groupies and alcohol you and him decided to hook up that night.

A few weeks after that crazy night you woke up to a sickness in your stomach, you decided to take a pregnancy test and as you can guess you were pregnant since you two were too drunk to use a condom or take any responsibility. You didn't tell dave about the pregnancy since you hadn't kept contact after that night.

About 11 months had passed since then. It's now September 29th 1992. You had given birth 2 months ago to a beautiful baby girl and she looked exactly like dave, she had small ginger hair strands and his eyes.

Right now your baby was in a stroller and you were pushing her through the park, passing beautiful ponds and small hotdog stands. You noticed the same wavy ginger hair sitting on a bench talking to a gorgeous blonde woman. You prayed he didn't notice you as you passed him.

You passed the bench fast strolling over to a different bench a bit further from where he was sitting. But sadly he did notice you. You were fixing some things on the stroller as you hear a soft voice say your name. You look up, dave standing right next to the stroller. Shit.

"Hey dave.." you say softly

"Hey" he greets you. "Is this your kid?"

"Yeah uhm" you say awkwardly, you take your baby out her stroller, holding her on your hip.

"I didn't know you had a kid, how old is she?" He asks with a bit of nervousness.

"She just turned 2 months" You smile widely, hoping he's bad at math.

"2 months?!" He asks softly, he had done the math and he had noticed her eyes and her small ginger baby hair.

"Okay, dave listen!" You say softly.

"Is she my kid?!" Dave asks in a nervous slight angry voice but quietly not to startle the baby.

"Dave I didn't know what to say or do okay, i just panicked and I didnt wanna ruin your career!"

"Are you kidding? What the hell is wrong with you! You're insane for not telling me."

"I'm sorry dave, can we go somewhere else? This is a private conversation."

"Fine, I live close by so we can just go to my place"

"What about that girl you were talking to?"

"She's my ex, we were talking about how she's gonna get the rest of her things out of my house. But she's nothing don't worry about it"

"Okay, i guess" You put your baby back into her stroller, you pulls the canopy down to keep the sun out her face.

You and dave arrived at his apartment, you push the stroller in before picking up the baby and moving the stroller next to the door. Dave walks in after you closing the door. You both take off your shoes and walk over to his couch.

You lay the baby down in the middle of both of you after putting some blankets around her to prevent her from falling off, during the stroll here she had fallen asleep peacefully.

"She's adorable" dave says quietly, her stares down at her but you can't seem to take your eyes off dave. Staring at his lips, his beautiful waves, his hands and mostly his eyes. He notices you staring at him and decided to start talking after a long drag of silence.

"Why wouldn't you tell me seriously?" He asks, a serious and confused expression on his face.

"I didn't think you'd believe she was yours and I didn't want to ruin your career" She says softly, shifting her gaze from his lips to his eyes.

"She looks exactly like me." He looks down at his little girl, her eyes closed and her hands clutching the air. He has this soft expression of his face, love and nervousness mixed together.

"Listen, after that night uhm, I started to think about you alot and since we didn't keep contact I just had to move on Dave. I couldn't get backstage with a huge baby bump" You stare at him, nervously waiting for an answer.

Dave stays quiet for a moment, staring at his daughter as everything sinks in. Finally he looks back at you and says "You should've tried to tell me or atleast look for me, but I'm glad I know now" He slowly picks up his daughter, cradling her in his arms. He can't stop smiling the same smile you fell inlove with when you saw him, grinning ear to ear. "Can I be apart of her life now?" He asks quietly.

"Of course dave, she's your daughter" you say back quietly in a sweet tone.

"Let me take you out on a proper date, seriously" He take your hand in his cradling the baby with his other arm.

"Sure dave, i wouldn't mind" You smile softly, you rub his hand with your thumb.

Now you guys are holding hands staring at the baby, she twitches a bit in her sleep. Dave giggles staring at her.
