I love you

Ricky had spent some time over at his girlfriend Adrian Lee's house after going to spend time at the mother of his son's house, with his son. Things were going well with Adrian, at little too well, it was getting to that real commitment stage. Ricky loved Adrian, but he still felt like owed something to Amy, she was the mother of his son and there would always be that connection, how could there not be? No else really understands what we are going through, trying to be parents and be in high school Ricky thought.

He paused for a brief moment, contemplating his decision of whether to go over Amy's house or not, and then he shook his head, shrugging his shoulders

"It's just a kiss, a meaningless kiss to boost her confidence that's it" Ricky mumbled to himself.

Once Ricky got to Amy's house he was grilled by George as he soon as he got there of course. Luckily, Ricky found came up with some bullshit excuse about needing to talk to Amy about their custody arrangements. George nodded and let him through.

Ricky and Amy were in her bedroom; she smiled shyly at him and he shut the door. She cautiously wrapped his arms around his neck, it felt odd but he didn't want to admit. She

"I don't this is awkward, I don't think it's gonna help" she stated.

"You're just too self-conscious, relax" he said

"I can't kiss you. "

He sighed and looked at her, this isn't going to work he thought, so he told her to close her eyes, as he was about to lean in and kiss her, he stopped. She looked uncomfortable and he loved Adrian, he just didn't want her to have control over that's why he was doing this. Adrian's face suddenly encapsulated his mind, how heart broken she would be.

"I love Adrian, I don't tell her that but I do"

He suddenly retracted his hand away from her face, Amy noticed and unwrapped her arms from his neck. Her eyes were glossy; they were easy to read she looked confused.

"Look Amy, we shouldn't do this, for once in my life I actually want to do the right thing, I told I loved Adrian and I do. A kiss isn't going to change anything, it won't mean anything with me and if Jimmy doesn't call you that's his problem."

Amy brushed her bangs back, she looked up at him and then nodded in agreement.

"Yeah I guess, it's stupid I don't why I bothered listening to Madison and Lauren, they always have crazy ideas"

Ricky chucked

" It's okay I'm not trying to tell who you're friends should but you shouldn't believe everything out of Madison and Lauren's mouth"

"I know," she agreed

As Ricky left her room, Ashley stopped him in his tracks.

"Good move" she said

"What?" Ricky said and scratched his head.

"The walls are paper thin you know"

"You were spying on us?" Ricky questioned

Ashley shrugged like it was nothing,

"You're kidding right, you know there's no such thing as privacy in this house right."

Ricky shook; his head "Whatever, good night Ashley" and headed out

Adrian Lee sat inside her bed wrapped in her blankets with her arms folded. She didn't believe Ricky was just going to Amy's house to 'talk', she had every reason to doubt him. If he was having sex with Amy she would have sex with Ben, that was it in order to let Ricky and Amy know exactly how she and Ben felt, it would be the perfect revenge. But then Adrian felt sympathy for the younger girl who had the baby and how her life had altered. Although Adrian was jealous of the connection Ricky had with Amy because of the baby, she was happy that she wasn't the teen mother. But she did often dream, too often actually that she was the one who had Ricky's baby and that they could be a family. In a midst of her thoughts, she heard her phone vibrate. It was text from Ricky

I love you, she prepared to roll her eyes, just ignore it and not text back

What did you do?

Nothing, do you think I did something?

Because I know you, I know you better than anyone

I know you before than anyone, and I know you're probably sitting in bed pouting, go to sleep Adrian, I didn't do anything. I love you, I'll cya at skool tmrw xx

Adrian pressed lowered the phone to her face, and rested it on her chin as she started up at the ceiling, and smiled falling asleep.

The following day at school Ricky approached Adrian as she was going to her locker.

"So you didn't text me back last night," Ricky said.

"I went to bed, you told me to go to bed"

Ricky smirked "So do you believe me? You can even ask Ashley if you don't"

"How do you know I talk to Ashley?"

Ricky rolled his eyes "Because, I know how you think Adrian"

Adrian pursed her lips and said, "Alright then I'll ask her everything, and Ashley and I are good friends"

"What about me and Amy, do you want us to be friends?"

"As long it doesn't interrupt my sex life"

Adrian rolled her eyes and didn't laugh but he pulled her closer to him and kissed her

"I told you I don't want to cheat on you, so I'm not"

"Good" Adrian said.

"Good?" Ricky questioned

She what he meant and pursed her lips

"Alright, you can come over tonight and we can have sex"

Ricky smirked

"No I was thinking, you could come over to my place and I could cook you something"

"Really" Adrian's beamed with excitement, and her smile truly shined.

"Yes, don't get too excited it's just a meal"

"Ahh" Adrian said while wrapping her around Ricky's neck and kissed him. Adrian spent the rest of the day re-reading Ricky's text messages, she wanted to smile like one of those love sick girls, but stopped herself. But secretly she enjoyed feeling that way.

A/N: This is just an AU of what I think would've happened if Ricky didn't kiss Amy.
