Numbers two and three are undoubtedly cute and make me wish I'd have a Ryan in my life but your first drabble is my favourite. One can see how obviously important family is to Summer, even so that she wakes Ryan up in the early morning just to tell him these news. While he's more or less woken up out of necessity or monumental occurences in the latter ones, your first story portrays a Summer who just wants to tell her boyfriend a simple thing - like the approval Ryan seems to have worked hard for in his life ;)

I can't personally figure out which one I love the best, but what you said is right on... Summer wants Ryan to know that her father, the man who's disapproval once derailed her relationship with Seth, likes Ryan and approves of them... it means everything to her, and she knows it means a lot to him, so she's not prepared to wait to tell him... (as a side note, I'm not sure why it's 5am when she's revealing this... maybe she and Neil spoke at that early hour for some reason... or maybe he told her this the night ebfore, and she tried to stay under control, but she just couldn't hold it in any longer... lol)

You know that I loved them all, right? I'd be happy to see more of any one of them (althought I don't really see how on the first one).

The first one was great. I could totally see Summer doing that. In her mind it's big news so why not share it right away. One reason why I love her. She embraces the moment. And it's obvious that her father's approval is very important to her.

The second one is too cute! Loved to see Ryan as to-be-dad. Just... Awww! That pretty much tells everything.

Now the third one I would love to see more. One reason I loved it was beacause there was a baby already (I'm finding a hard time to believe that I'm finally an aunt =)). The idea seriously could have many twists and turns in storage. Of course Ryan is taking good care of Claire, he could never abandon a kid needing his help. M-bitch (sounds like a rapper) could do some damage to their lives if she wanted to, but that's just me talking.

Are you planning to continue them?

[missmara]

lol... the 2nd one could easily fit into the universe of one of my toher story ideas, so... it might show up as part of a chapter at another time... lol...

The third one is the one I'd most want to write more of, simply because, as you said, there's a lot of story there... and *I* already know a lot more details of that particular universe... and yes, M-Bitch is totally a rapper name... lol...

I may write more of the 3rd one at some point... at this very moment, I'm embroiled in a new idea that is so far... interesting... it's an Unconventional pairing, Ryan/Someone else (The first chapter initially keeps it a secret, so... lol...) that is so far just friendship, but may become more... lol

Good, good and good! If I have to pick a favorite it would be the 2nd one altought I love the picture of Ryan holding a baby against his bare chest in the last one. Baby and Ryan what a sweet picture and we all know Ryan would make a great dad. He would give fatherhood his everything. Thank so much for these sweet stories.

[missmara]

The second one is just simply adorable, with Ryan and Summer all excited about their baby kicking and him not caring that she woke him up... lol... and Ryan would be a most excellent dad, he'd put his child first, before anyone else... just because no one ever put him first...

I think #3 is my favorite, but they are all really great. Even though they are so short, there is still a plot and there are many ways they could go. Love these little one shots.
You're an amazing writer, that's for sure.
