I got this idea after watching a preview for the episode where Ricky's father comes to town. I decided to see what I could make of it. It's been on my computer for awhile, but I thought that I would share it with you guys. It starts off as a suspense.

Thanks for reading!

"Is this some kind of joke!"

Ricky shut his locker aware of the owner of the voice that just greeted him. He turned to face Amy, "Excuse me?"

"Your pranks aren't funny Ricky!"

They were drawing a crowd now. "I still have no idea what you are talking about", he said leaning against his locker.

"Oh I think you do. Your friend called my house last night and threatened me."

His eyes moved to the crowd of students surrounding them and back to meet Amy's fierce gaze."Okay, first of all calm down all right."

"No I'm not going to calm down!"

Her stubbornness was so frustrating sometimes. He quickly grabbed her arm and ushered her into a nearby empty classroom.

"What are you doing?" she demanded.

"Saving you from being the number one gossip topic of the school again."

"My hero", Amy rolled her eyes, "So are you going to explain?"

"Explain? Amy I don't know what you are talking about. Why would one of my friends threaten you?"

"Oh I don't know..to scare me into giving up the baby maybe...which I'm sure was part of your plan."

"Look, I have made it very clear to you that I want to be apart of the baby's life. Why would I want you to give it up now."

"You don't seriously expect me to sit here and figure out how your twisted little mind works do you?"

"Ok, fine look just believe me when I say I had nothing to do with it. What did the guy say anyway?"

"He threatened my life if I didn't give up the baby. He also said he was a friend of yours."

"That's ridiculous. I don't even have that many friends and none of them have anything against you or your baby."

"So it's just my baby now huh", Amy's voice rose, "I got myself pregnant right?"

"That's not what I was trying to say and you know it."

"Oh I know it all right and seeing as how I guess it is my baby now I guess that means I don't need you!" She spun around on her heel and headed for the door.

Ricky reached out his arm to stop her, "Amy, wait!" She gave him a withering look.

"I do want this baby ok."

Her expression softened, "I wish you would actually show it once in awhile."

Ricky looked as his shoes, "I'm sorry", he looked back up at her surprised to see she was smiling...sort of.

"Wow. I think you actually meant that".

Ricky returned her smile, "I'm not a bad guy."

"Just 99.6% of the time", she joked.

"I guess I deserve that", his smile faded, "Are you gonna be okay? Do you wanna talk to someone."

She shrugged, "No it was probably nothing. Listen, I'm gonna go meet Ben for lunch and I guess Grace is waiting for you."

"Yeah... right. I guess she is."

"Well, see ya", she gave him a small wave and left.
