Okay, so I am obsessed with the idea of Gricky (Grace and Ricky). I am a Amy and Ben fan aswell, but I really wanted to start a fanfiction based around Grace and Ricky. I think they would be great. I mean, opposites attract. Please no rude comments. Thank you.

Chapter 1: The Aftermath of a Shirtless Ricky
Ricky Underwood always hid behind his past. If he were to do something wrong, he would blame it on his father and all of the horrible things his father did to him. He had attended counseling sessions everyday.. Or at least he was suppose to. He had found himself driving to the large, ominous brick building and quickly turning back around each and every time. The guidance counselor could read him like a book.. And Ricky hated being psycho analyzed.
Ricky would drive to Adrian Lee's house and drown out the pain. Deep down inside, Ricky felt badly about the way he used Adrian but she let him use her.. And because of that, he continued to seek sex and only sex from her. He knew it was wrong… But he had a pattern. He would sleep with girls once or twice and then cut off all contact from them. He needed those girls to feed his sexual obsession. The obsession that manifested after being put in a foster home.
It wasn't until that fateful day that he seriously considered changing his ways. In his mind, it was just an idea. A rather far fetched idea. But he told himself that she was the one that was going to change his consuming ways. Grace Bowman had approached him in the hallway, grinning from ear to ear. Her smile lit up the hallway and she truly didn't have the slightest clue that she was every guy's fantasy. The only problem? Grace Bowman was unattainable. She was extremely religious and she had her shiny new purity ring to prove it. She preached abstinence and abstinence alone.
She had invited Ricky and Adrian to the football game after-party. Adrian was rude and vulgar. She basically made it clear that she wouldn't be caught dead at a party thrown by Grace Bowman. When Adrian walked off, Ricky had and opportunity to really get a better look at Grace. At first he had a sexual desire towards her. But then he saw her in a new way. A potential girlfriend way. That was a first for Ricky Underwood.
"Are you going to be there Grace?" Ricky asked. He was intrigued to say the least. Grace just giggled and nodded.
It was just 3 weeks ago, but to Ricky it had felt like a lifetime ago since he first met Grace.
Ricky was sitting in 1st period math. The day had just begun and he was already praying for it to be over. He yawned ferociously. He barely got any sleep last night. He was over at Adrian's and Adrian had purposely forgotten to wake him up. Ricky had told her specifically not to let him fall asleep. Adrian didn't give a damn what Ricky told her to do. The only thing she was interested in was having Ricky for herself. Adrian had sensed the connection between Ricky and Grace.. After all, opposites attract and she was raging with jealousy.
Ricky had gotten a panicked call from Grace at midnight and he had to rush to her rescue. Adrian was being selfish and childish and wouldn't give Ricky his shirt. Therefore, Ricky hurried to pick up Grace - shirtless. It felt amazing to be able to protect her. Ricky wouldn't have forgiven himself if something would have happened to her…
And then it hit him.. Do I have feelings for Grace? Like actual feelings? Ricky contemplated. He rested his head on the wooden desk and pondered the thought.
