Photoshoot

June 2005

Rivet was eight months pregnant with her second son, Roy Davis. Ratchet was holding his firstborn son RJ or Ratchet Davis Jr. in his arms.

Rivet was on her laptop reacherching photographers in LA to take photos of her and a few of Ratchet and their son.

"Chet? I think I found someone-" she said holding up her all-white MacBook "-And he's from Hollywood." Ratchet walked up. Holding the baby Lombax in his arms as he slept. RJ wore a tiny LAKERS jersey, tiny basketball shorts, and tiny black PlayStation socks with the logo in white on his feet.

"Okay, let's go in an hour when the little dude wakes up." Ratchet said.

Rivet smiled, "Sounds like a plan." Ratchet smiled as he put RJ in his crib which was in their bedroom.

An hour later. They were in Ratchet's 2004 Audi A4, RJ was in the car seat in the back facing the backrests. RJ was making noises as the radio was turned on to 102.7 KIIS FM

"Hey! You're Listening to 102.7 KIISS FM. with me! Rick Dees so our first topic today is Ratchet Davis, with his new game. Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal! Rumors have it that he's got another game on the way. We don't know what it's called. But fans have names for the game already on Twitter. Enough of that now-" he said as a song played on the radio.

"Here is We Belong Together by Mariah Carey," The radio host said as the song played.

Rivet smiled, and Ratchet stopped the car. They were almost going to meet up with the photographer, they had a few more miles to go. Just then, TMZ swarmed their car and started taking photos. Their camera flashes didn't bother either of them because their whole car was blacked out. RJ looked at them, the baby clapped his small furry hands at them. Ignoring the flashes from the cameras.

"Rach, drive!" she said as he peeled off.

The park is the perfect place for a photoshoot. Sunlight, trees, green grass. Ratchet and Rivet walked up. They saw the photographer.

His name was Alejandro, he was tan. His hair was combed back and a mustache rested on his lip. He wore a nice white buttoned-down shirt and blue jeans. He wore brown shoes, a gold chain, and a silver ROLEX watch completed his look.

"Ah, Rivet! How are you?" he asked in a very thick Spanish accent, shaking her hand. Ratchet smiled and also shook his hand.

"I'm fine, Alejandro," she asked. Alejandro bent down to say hi to RJ. "Hola RJ, tú tan lindo.." the man said, tickling his furry stomach. The toddler laughed as he smiled. His fuzzy puffy cheeks were so cute!

"He's so cute, congrats. And you have another on the way," he said in his thick accent.

"Thank you, Alejandro." Rivet said, smiling at her husband. Ratchet smiled too.

Rivet sat there as Alejandro was taking pictures of her. Rivet did many poses, he needed one more and they were done. Rivet did as instructed. Her robotic hand was on the top of her stomach. And her left hand was on the bottom. Alejandro took the last remaining pictures.

"Alright, perfect! Now I need a couple with Ratchet and your Hijo and we're done, alright?" he said, Rivet nodded as Ratchet stood next to her, holding the baby Lombax in his fuzzy arms.

"Sounds like a plan, let's do it," he said as they got together and Alejandro took the rest of the pictures.

The photoshoot was complete. Rivet and Ratchet both gave Alejandro money for his services, as they were about to leave, TMZ showed up out of nowhere, asking Ratchet questions about his new upcoming game for the PlayStation 2.

Cameras flashed in their eyes. And RJ was not liking it one bit. RJ started tearing up, then crying. Ratchet's instincts kicked in. He grabbed him out of the stroller and held him in his arms. "Shhhh, it's okay... dad's here," he turned to them. Ratchet grabbed his OmniWrench with his free hand.

"Get away from us!" Ratchet said, shielding both Rivet and RJ. who were buried in his chest, he'd calmed down but he was still pretty scared.

Ratchet swung his OmniWrench around, he knocked a camera out of the TMZ reporter's hands. It signaled them to get the heck away from them.

Ratchet put the weapon away and sighed. Putting RJ back into his stroller. "Those guys are buttheads, bro."

"I agree, babe. They are whack!" Rivet said, walking back to Ratchet's Audi

They went back to their house, Ratchet went to the Gameroom to relieve some stress by gaming. Rivet was playing with RJ on the floor in the living room. It was a very eventful day for all of them, but they were glad it was over.
