Chapter 1

The Journey Begins

Knock! Knock! Liv,Fin and Carisa knocked at Amanda's door. They were all ready to start their journey. Amanda opened the door with a huge scream of happiness because she was excited about the trip. She was holding her pregnant belly as she was getting ready to go to the New York tour. She offered all of them to sit in the family room with her husband, Lt. Declan Murphy, their one and a half year old daughter Jesse and their dog Frannie. She came back to her room and she grabs her things and right after 4 minutes, Liv came into her room to remind her to do something important.

"Amanda, it's going to be a long car ride. Did you forgot to take a bathroom break?" Liv asked".

"No, I don't have to go now." Amanda said, insisting that she doesn't have to go to the bathroom.

Liv convinces her try to go. Amanda said that she would try.

"Liv? Would you be a doll and come into the bathroom with me? I need help". Amanda tells Liv.

"Sure thing Amanda, I'm happy to help a friend out." Liv says.

She goes into the bathroom with Liv and they close the door. But Amanda can't due to a shy bladder because she's too tense to empty her weak bladder.

Liv cheers her up, by pulling Amanda's pants and underwear down for her and help her sit on the toilet. Liv helped Amanda sit on the toilet and try to relax so that she can go to the bathroom.

"Gosh ... it just won't come out." Amanda said, nervously.

"If you can't go now, we can try again later." Liv replied.

"Okay, maybe some water sounds will help. If you can turn the sink water on, that would be great because I don't want to have to pee while in the car ." Amanda responded.

"It might be better for you." Liv replied.

Then Carisa came into Amanda's room and told her friends that they are getting late. Declan says that his mom is coming now to pick up Jesse and Frannie and they hear a knock on the door. It was Declan mom at the door and she comes inside. Carisi goes into the to tell Declan that his mom is here.

"Hey, Murphy. Your mom's here." Carisi says.

"Okay, I'm getting Jesse ready and Frannie is good to go." Declan replies.

They guys go into the family room and see that Declan's mom is sitting on the couch playing with Frannie. Declan has Jesse in his arms and her diaper bag ready to go. Amanda and Liv are still in the bathroom trying to get Amanda to go before leaving.

"Jesse, Grandma is going to watch you while Mommy and Daddy go on the New York trip for grown ups. We'll bring you back something to play with. Now, you be a good girl at Grandma's house. Daddy loves you." Declan says.

"I luvs you too, Daddy." Jesse says.

Jesse gives Declan a big kiss and a hug and he puts her down to walk. Declan's mom puts her hands out and Jesse walks to her. Meanwhile, Amanda and Liv are still in the bathroom and Liv turns the sink water on for Amanda.

"Amanda? Relax ... if you relax, then you can go easier. Must relax and listen to the running water." Liv says.

"Okay. Now, I feel like I have to pee because of the water. The running water is so relaxing. Thanks, Liv ... I think I can pee easily now." Amanda says, confidently.

Soon, Amanda's bladder gives out a loud rushing stream. She sighs in relief as she goes to the was now ready to go, because everything was done.

"Guys! Let's go." Amanda asked excitingly.

She put her bags into the car and sat on the left side of the car. They all cheered up and sat into the car,Declan, drives the car.

They started their journey from, Las Vegas to New York.

New York was about 2,529.1 miles away from Las Vegas. They played music in the car.

They bought some snacks from the store and Amanda bought some bottles of mineral water. They get back in the car and start driving again. Amanda drank some water so that she won't become dehydrated.
