At Eric Richards house, he and his 9 months pregnant wife Clair had just eaten dinner when they decided to sit down and relax for a bit to get his mind off the offseason. He was skimming through TV channels when he decided to watch some Sportscenter. It was while watching Sportscenter that he saw the news:
"We have breaking news: Wide receiver Bender Rodriguez and running back Baby Yoda are the latest free agents to sign with the Chicago Butchers! This was announced on the Butchers Twtter account just moments ago and was confirmed by the league."
"It wasn't that hard of an decision" the wide receiver robot known as Bender says as he talks to the media "they are the only ones that realized that booze makes robots like me play better, not worse"
"Listen to my terms they did" Bany Yoda says to the media "easy decision it was"
"Hey Clair the Butchers are making moves in the offseason-" Eric begins to say but then he sees Clair gripping her stomach "Honey are you ok?!"
"My water just broke!" Clair realizes "it is time!"
"Oh crap!" Eric says as he goes to bring her to his car "just breathe honey breathe!" He says as he heads to the hospital as fast as he legally can, though Clair yelled at him to go faster many times. They do reach the hospital in time and run through the door "my wife is about to give birth!" He says frantically to the secretary
"Oh ok just relax we will get her to a room right away!" She says and then calls down some doctors to bring her to the room. Eric stayed with her as she went through a lot of pain
"Just push baby you're almost there!" He says as she practically crushed his hand in pain
"Don't tell me what to do-oh I can feel him come out!" She yells as Noah Williams Richards is born. The baby boy was beautiful and healthy, looking just like his dad with his mom's eyes. Eric nearly cried as he held him for the first time, amazed that he gets to hold his own child for the first time.
"Hey there Noah. My name is Eric. I am your dad." He whispers to the baby as it coos. He then hands the baby to Clair and texts his Butchers teammates to tell them that the baby has arrived. Surprisingly enough, one of the first teammates to come visit Noah was Bender, who Eric hadn't texted due to not knowinghis number "How did you already reach Chicago?" Eric asks him "and how did you know the baby was here?"
"I had already landed here to talk with the GM more and to see the sites" Bender shrugs "as for the second question, I had learned about it from Bayley"
"Oh. Well anyways here is Noah" Eric shows him the baby boy, who was sleeping peacefully in his mothers arms
"You know if I was programed with emotions, I'd probably be teary-eyed" Bender chuckles "still, a very cute kid"
"Yeah it's just unbelievable that he's mine" Eric says
"Well good thing you had him in the offseason"
"Why is that?"
"Because you are about to have many sleepless nights" Bender says as he puts a hand on his shoulder "good luck with that buddy"
"Yeah I know" Eric chuckles "don't worry I'm prepared"
Obviously the next people to see the newborn was Eric's parents Dean and Jane who were over the moon with the fact that they are now grandparents
"All Richards men have bllnd hair except for my brother Danny" Dean remarks as he sees Noah's blond hair
"Yeah i remember Uncle Danny" Eric says "isn't he living in Vegas right now?"
"Yeah he is just enjoying his retirement I suppose" Jane giggles "I would too in all honestly"
A few minutes later, Tsuyu Asui and her family come into the room "oh hey. Guess the news travels quickly"
"Yeah I heard about it from the news and got a ride from my parents." She smiles
"Guess we won't be keeping this quiet right now honey" Eric says to Clair, then turns to the doctor and nurses "tell them to only let in family and friends" they nod as he then shows the frog girl the baby boy
"He looks just like you" she smiles "i guess he's a future ISFL star?"
"He can be whatever he chooses to be" He says "as long as its legal of course" he chuckles
"Yeah you wouldn't want him to rob banks or anything" Bender says, then throughout the day multiple Butchers teammates and family members come visit the two, but eventually they say that they just want to rest and everyone left them alone.
"I love you both" Eric says as they look at the newborn
"I know" Clair smiles "we finally have our ideal family"
"Definitely just like we always dreamed" He smiles "now maybe having a girl would make it even more ideal..."
"Not for a long time Eric" Clair giggles "i need time to learn how to take cars of a child for next time"
"I know I was just saying" they then just layer down in peaceful silence until Noah started crying "and wow his third cry"
"You're keeping track?" She giggles as she goes to breastfeed him
"I just don't want to forget these little moments" he smiles "they will be over before you know it. Dad told me that"
"Then let's not forget" Clair smiles as they kiss "we have a long time to remember every little moment"
"Oh we will honey" Eric says as Noah feeds "we will
