Second Chance
Disclaimer: I don't own Ninjago, just the story.
Lloyd arrived at the bakery at 1 like he agreed on with Britney. He was very nervous. He was going to discuss what to do about their child as well as ask Britney for a second chance. He walked in and saw Britney at a table with Max in a stroller. He walked over to them. "Hey Britney," Lloyd said nervously.
She looked up at him with a small smile. "Hey Lloyd."
Lloyd sat down. "How are you doing?"
"I'm good. What about you?"
"Good."
"Now, what we're actually here to talk about. Max."
Lloyd looked at Britney seriously. "Britney, I do want to be a part of his life...but not just his." Lloyd grabbed Britney's hand. "I know that what I did to you was wrong. I should never have just left like I did, especially since, I really liked you." She didn't say anything. "All I'm asking for is a second chance."
"I don't know Lloyd."
"Please. Just go on a date with me."
Britney looked at Lloyd skeptically and then looked at Max. "I would like to go on a date with you, but who would watch Max?"
"I can ask Jay and Nya. To be honest, besides my uncle and mother, they are the only ones that know about this."
"Why?!" Britney asked very skeptically.
"I'm just scared of the reactions of the others. Jay and Nya are parents now. They have twins that are only a couple months old. I'm sure they would be happy to watch Max for us for a night."
Britney nodded and smiled. "Ok."
"Is Saturday at 7 good for you?"
"Yeah. I'll meet you at your team's monastery."
"You know where it is?"
"Everybody knows where it is."
"I guess I'll see you then."
"Yeah."
Lloyd got up and gave Britney a hug and then went to Max. "Hi Max. I may not have expected you, but I promise that I will be the best father that I can be. I love you." Lloyd kissed Max's forehead before heading out.
Saturday at the Monastery
Lloyd was finishing up getting ready for his date. He was dressed in a green suit and tie. He walked out to the living room where Jay and Nya were putting Justin and Alex in their playpen.
"Hey Lloyd," Jay said when he noticed Lloyd enter the room. "Are you ready for your date?"
"Yeah," Lloyd said nervously. "Are you guys sure you're ok watching Max?"
"Of course!" Nya said. "It will give our kids a friend to play with."
Wu and Misako entered the room. "Is Britney here yet?" Misako asked.
"No," Lloyd responded.
"I can't wait to meet her and Max."
Unexpectedly, the others entered the room. Everyone thought they had other plans for the night.
"Hey Lloyd, why are you so dressed up?" Kai asked.
"I thought you guys had plans tonight," Lloyd said.
"We were going to see a movie, but we couldn't decide which one," Cole replied.
"Now, answer my question," Kai demanded.
"Fine...I'm going on a date tonight," Lloyd said.
Cole, Kai, and Zane stood there confused.
There was a knock on the door and Lloyd opened it. "Britney!" Lloyd exclaimed.
Britney was wearing a long, flowing aqua dress and she was holding Max. "Hey Lloyd."
Lloyd moved aside to let her in. "Please come in. You look amazing!"
"You don't look too bad yourself."
Misako walked over to them. "You must be Britney." Misako beamed and looked at the baby she was holding. "And this must be Max."
"You must be Lloyd's mother."
"Please, call me Misako. May I hold him?"
"Of course!" Britney handed Max off to Misako. Cole, Kai, and Zane looked confused as to why the girl Lloyd was going on a date with has a baby.
Jay and Nya walked up to Britney. "Don't worry Britney. We'll take good care of him," Nya said.
"You guys must be Jay and Nya. Thank you for watching our son for us."
"No problem," Jay said. "It will be nice for Justin and Alex to have someone to play with."
"Go! Have fun!" Nya told them.
Lloyd and Britney waved goodbye and left to go on their date.
Misako handed Max off to Jay who placed him in the playpen with Justin and Alex.
"Will somebody please explain everything?" Kai said.
"I am so confused," Cole said.
"Who is this kid?" Zane asked.
"Guys!" Nya got everyone's attention. "Look, Lloyd had a one night stand with Britney and didn't know that she had gotten pregnant because of it. He actually just found out about Max. Britney is giving him a second chance, so let them enjoy their date."
"Why do you guys know all this?" Kai asked.
"We saw him when he came home after finding out about Max," Jay said. "Lloyd was very embarrassed about what happened, but he opened up about it to us since we're parents ourselves."
"So now there are three ninja kids," Cole said. "Cool!"
They all played with the three babies until Lloyd and Britney got back from their date. When they walked back inside, everyone noticed.
"Hey!" they all said in unison.
"How was your date?" Nya asked.
"I had a really great time," Britney said.
"So did I," Lloyd said. He then walked over to Max and picked him up. "How about you, Max? Did you have fun?" Everyone laughed.
Misako walked over to Lloyd and Max. "I'm so happy that I got to meet my grandson! He's a little angel!" She looked over at Britney. "Please bring him over more."
"I will," Britney responded. She looked over at Jay and Nya. "Thank you for watching him."
"It was no trouble at all," Nya said. "We would be happy to watch him again."
Britney looked over at Lloyd. "We will probably end up taking you up on that offer."
"So...does that mean there will be a second date?" Lloyd asked.
Britney laughed and smiled at Lloyd. "What do you think?"
"I think that I can't wait for our second date."
"Good answer." Britney grabbed Max from Lloyd. "Well, I guess we better get going."
"You're welcome here anytime, Britney," Misako said. "Also, if you need anything and can't get a hold of Lloyd, just give me a call." Misako handed Britney her number. "I would also be willing to babysit Max if you need it."
"Thank you so much. Bye guys."
"Bye Britney," Lloyd said. "Bye Max." Britney and Max left for the night. Lloyd smiled as he watched them leave.
"So...Lloyd the father?" Kai teased.
"Don't say anything!" Lloyd snapped back. "Please, don't ruin this for me."
Kai put his hands up in defense. "I'm just surprised. I don't think any of us were really expecting that."
"He inherited your power, didn't he Lloyd?" Zane said.
"Yes," Lloyd responded. "He did, but we don't need to worry about that right now. He's still too young for it anyways. Jay and Nya aren't worrying about the powers their kids inherited."
"I think what Zane was trying to say is that Britney is going to have to find out about it," Cole said.
"I'll tell her later. For now, I just want to enjoy spending time with her and Max."
