Amy couldn't remember the last time she'd done something for herself. The past four years of her life had only been about Ricky and John. The truth was, they were all she had ever known and for a very long time, that had been enough for her. Until one day, she woke up and realized that she wasn't in love Ricky and she just couldn't be married to him anymore. She knew he wasn't in love with her either because he didn't look at her the way he used.

Things with her and Ricky had never been easy. He wasn't the most cooperative guy when she got pregnant and it wasn't until he held John in his arms that he finally became the kind of guy, she would be proud to call the father of her son.

Amy's pregnancy had been a very tough time in her life, of course her family and friends supported her but somewhere all of that support just seemed to lack in making her feel safe. She couldn't shake the feeling that she would always be missing out on something for the rest of her life.

Amy flashed back to the day she'd finally told Ricky how she felt.

"I cant' do this anymore." Amy said turning to face Ricky.

"What do what anymore?" Ricky asked, walking closer to Amy.

"I mean I can't be married anymore. "Amy said.

"What? Why?" Ricky asked.

"You're not in love with me and I'm not in love with you." Amy said.

"So?" Ricky asked, as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

"What do you mean so? Don't you think we should be in love with the person we're married to?" Amy asked.

"Yeah, but it's not the most important thing in the world. What's important is that we give John the best life we can." Ricky said.

"By being married, even when we're not in love?" Amy asked.

"If that's what it takes." Ricky said.

"I love John but I just cant anymore Ricky." Amy said.

"Amy, relax, you're probably just tired. Get some sleep, you're overreacting." Ricky said.

"I'm not, I want a divorce." Amy said, walking out of their shoebox sized bedroom.

"You can't do this!" Ricky said, getting upset as he followed Amy out of the room.

"It's for the best Ricky." Amy said.

"No, its not. You're being selfish." Ricky said, sounding so helpless.

"I'm being selfish? I've spent every waking minute for the past four years constantly thinking about John, about you. I'll always love you and John but we don't need to be married to be a family." Amy said.

"I need some air." Ricky said, walking out of the apartment.

Amy snapped out of the flashback, when the airhostess asked her if she needed anything. It had been five months since that fight and their divorce was almost finalized. She couldn't believe she was on her way to New York, finally not missing out.

Amy's first couple of days at Hudson University had been amazing. She'd met a couple of girls from New York at orientation and the three of them had been inseparable.

"I know this great Tavern, on broadway, let's go." Emily said. She was a tall brunette with blue eyes.

"Russell's tavern?" Rachel asked, as she flipped through a magazine. The blonde was sitting next to Amy on the bed.

"Yeah, they have great live music and there's this really cool cover band playing tonight. Come on lets go." Emily said.

"I don't know guys, I'm really tired." Amy said.

"Come on Amy, live a little." Rachel said.

Somehow these words triggered something in Amy's head that made her spring out of bed and get dressed.

The tavern was very big and filled with people. Amy couldn't help but look around. There was a band on stage but they hadn't started playing.

"Hey guys, we're the bayless." The lead singer said.

They began singing could it be another change by the samples.

Amy was still busy looking around but somehow hearing the singer's voice, she couldn't help but look up at him.

He was a tall, skinny brunette with the cutest smile she'd ever seen. He was looking around at the crowd and singing, somehow feeling every word he was .

"The only time I feel good sinking

Is when I'm sinking fast and deep for you"

As he sang, he looked over at Amy and their eyes met. Amy had never felt this way before, like it was magic.
