show Friday morning.

Raini: It's good, Ross and Laura. I'll see you
Friday, Calum.

Pretty soon, it was just birthday wishes. Yeah, they got asked about each other in interviews and what not, and Raini and Calum managed to stay super close. Ross and Laura? They never talked unless it was through the A&A Family💘 group text. Ross and Courtney broke up after Status Update aired in late 2017. Laura and Andrew broke up in late 2016. Calum married Celesta and they have a two year old daughter named Clementine Renee Worthy.

Rydellington got married and has a kid, his name is Jackson Anthony Ratliff, he's almost one years old and Rydel's a month pregnant. Riker and Savannah got married and she just had their son, Noah Mark Lynch, a month old. Rocky finally settled down with a nice girl named Jessica Foster, they're engaged. Ryland got together with a nice girl named Taylor Hannigan. Raini is engaged to a man named Antonio Ferguson. (Ages: Raura: 26. Raini: 28. Calum: 31. Riker: 30. Ellington: 29. Rydel: 28. Rocky: 27. Ryland: 25. Vanni: 26. Jessica: 27. Taylor: 23)

R5 had hit its best year last year, playing all over the world for with their fifth album, but has decided to take a year or two off from touring and settle down and make more music. Laura hit it big and is more famous than ever, now working on her fourth album as we speak. Raini has actually directed multiple things but has decided to settle down and make some music. Calum has directed some Nicholas Sparks book movies, some comedies and whatnot.

But now? Raini bumps into Ross at target, where she later bumps into Laura at Starbucks. So, she finally texts in A&A Family💘, where they haven't talked since January on Calum's 30th birthday... And this is the conversation...

A&A Family💘:

Raini: Okay, so I bumped into Ross and then
into Laura today. I think we should all get
together at my place this weekend and have
a long overdue get together of JUST the four
of us. No girlfriends/boyfriends. We really
need to get together you guys. We haven't
been in the same room together since 2016.
Please. I miss you guys a whole lot.

Calum: I'm down. Celesta's cool with having
the house to herself with Clementine. And
honestly, I've missed the work out of all
of you.

Ross: Sounds awesome. And don't worry,
I haven't dated anymore in years.

Laura: Yeah that sounds good. And same with
Ross about the whole dating crap.

Raini: Good. Friday night at 5:00pm.

And that's how the four of them got back together...
