Amy sat on Ben's bed, one hand resting protectively on her swollen belly, the other holding her diary. She was reading what she had written over a whirlwind 8 months. The drama started at band camp, when she mistakenly got into bed with Ricky Underwood.

Flashback to band camp:

Amy was putting away her French horn when she heard someone knock at the door."Ricky? What are you doing here so late?"

"I need some help for the test tomorrow I wouldn't normally ask you but... can I come in?"

Amy sighed and nodded.

They spend the next hour revising the test when suddenly Ricky lent in and kissed Amy.

"What are you doing?" She exclaimed, pushing herself away.

"I don't know" Ricky replied with his lopsided smile. "You just looked really beautiful, and I wanted to kiss you."

Amy smiled, flattered. After a moment of awkward silence, Ricky whispered

"Can I kiss you again?"

Amy laughed and nodded.

Suddenly one thing led to another, and Amy remembered waking up the next day with Ricky gone. She knew what happened, but avoided Ricky for the rest of the camp out of embarrassment and confusion.

Six weeks later she found out she was pregnant. Soon enough, the whole town knew, and her life began falling apart, piece by piece. Soon after she found out about the baby, Amy's dad George eloped with Cindy Lee, taking her daughter Adrian with them. Ricky ran off when Amy told him the news, saying her couldn't take the responsibility, and that her didn't love Amy or the baby. Ashley got more and more depressed, only leaving the house for school. Anne was furious at everyone, including Amy. The only one who understood was Ben. When she was 5 months pregnant, she took up the Boykewich's offer of a place to stay, and moved in with them. She remembered the moment she felt the baby kick for the first time, which completely changed her thoughts of adoption.

Flashback to Amy moving in with the Boykewich's:

"That's everything!" Ben said happily, shutting the front door. Amy smiled and hugged Ben. "Thank you. Thank you so much for letting me stay here" She whispered, "with everything going on at my house..." "It's my pleasure Ames." Ben replied. Suddenly, she broke out of Ben's arms, gasped and held her stomach. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" Ben said, alarmed. Amy's expression of shock turned to a big smile. "I just felt it!" She laughed, "My baby kicked!" She took Ben's hand and placed it on her bump. "Can you feel that?!" Ben smiled wide, amazed and proud. He was speechless. After a few minutes it stopped, and Amy and Ben had their hands on her stomach, sharing a priceless expression.

"That was our baby?" Ben asked, shocked.

"Our?" Amy replied confused.

"Oh... um... I didn't mean 'our'... I just"

"Ben, its fine." Amy smiled. "Do you still want to do this with me?"

"Yes, Amy, of course" Ben gushed, "I love you and that baby so, so much."

They smiled and kissed.

Amy closed her diary, smiling. She was so happy at how things had turned out. She was slowly mending her relationship with Anne and Ashley, who were both receiving counselling. Ben's dad had been amazing, buying a crib, changing table and everything the baby needed for their room. And Ben. Ben had been the best boyfriend ever. He helped Amy through morning sickness, mood swings, going to the store at 3am for cravings, and talking to Amy's stomach any chance he got.



Ben came into the bedroom and sat on the bed, putting one arm around Amy and the other on her belly. "How are my favourite girls doing?" He smiled. He was convinced the baby was a girl, while Amy felt like it would be a boy. "We're really good." Amy smiled. "I love you Ben. And I can't wait til we have this baby."

"I love you too Amy. More than anything in the world." Ben smiled.

Amy soon fell asleep in Ben's arms. Ben and their baby were all she needed.

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you
