The Unexpected

Chapter 3: Homeschooling?

Again I have no connections with ABC Family or the writers of Secret Life. This is simply a fanfiction!

Recap of Chapter Two: You're what?

Amy brings herself to tell Ricky the truth and is surprised when he is ok with it. He is just mad that she didn't tell him sooner. The watch movies all day then go to McDonalds for a greasy cheeseburger before heading off to bed.

Last few lines of Chapter2:

"Well hello little one." I said as I walked over and rubbed Amy's tummy.

She looked up at me and simply said. "Hello daddy." Then gave me a kiss.

We went into my bedroom and got in bed. I wasn't really tired but could tell she was. I pulled her close to me and said "I love you"

She replied "I love you too" and fell asleep.

Chapter 3: Homeschooling?

Amy's POV

I woke up and looked at the clock. 9:37 am. I looked over to Ricky's side of the bed and saw it was empty. I remembered that I told my mom I would be home to pick up John around noon, so I didn't have much time before I had to go.

I got out of bed and walked out into the living room/kitchen area to see that Ricky was cooking breakfast. It looked like eggs, bacon and toast.

"Good Morning" I said as I eyed the food. It looked good and it spelt even better.

"Morning" he replied continuing to cook.

"I have to leave around eleven, I promised my mom that I would have John picked up around noon."

"No problem, breakfast should be ready in a few minutes. Take a seat at the table." Ricky said. I could tell he was staring at my belly. I just pretended to not notice and took a seat. I decided to start a conversation.

"I really don't want to go back to school tomorrow. I mean last week if you didn't know I was pregnant you would just think I was fat…..but now it's getting to the point where it's kind of hard to hide." I said looking down at my belly.

"Then don't go." He replied as if I could just skip school and it wouldn't matter.

"Ricky I can't just skip school for the next nine months." I said stating the obvious.

"Who's says that your skipping school?" He says and then continues, "You could always try homeschooling."

"That doesn't sound like such a bad idea….but I'm going to miss my friends and besides….its senior year." I said.

He brought the food over to the table and continued to talk, "Amy if you did homeschooling you could come live with me here in my apartment and do school. During that time I could be helping you….and John."

"I guess I could ask the counselor about it tomorrow." I said in between bites. "Oh I almost forgot, I have a doctor's appointment after school tomorrow and I'd really like it if you came."

"I would love to come…..I'll try to make it but my last class doesn't get out till 2:30 so that will be pushing it."

"School gets out at 3:30 and if anything you'll just miss the first few minutes…please come."

"Fine I'll come. I regret not being a part of any of that when you were pregnant with John….so I'm going to try really hard to make it."

"Thanks!" I said with a huge smile on my face.

By the time we were done eating and talking it was 10:32. I had to leave in half an hour if not sooner. I started to get ready, since I was still in my pajamas. I put on jean capris and a tight shirt that was comfortable. I didn't care if my belly was noticeable. Ricky knew so there was no point in hiding it. I brushed through my hair and gathered all my things back in my bag. It was 10:53.

"Ricky, I have to go but I'll see you tomorrow ok."

"Yes you will." He said walking over and gave me a kiss.

"I'll ask the counselor about homeschooling, but that's after I talk to my mom of course."

"Thanks Amy." He said with a smile.

"Bye."

*1 hour later*

I walked in the kitchen of my parent's house and saw John sitting in his high chair eating lunch. "Hey buddy" I said smiling at him.

"Momma!"

"Oh, hey Amy." My mom said.

"Hey mom can I talk to you?" I asked.

"Sure" she said sitting down at the kitchen table. I joined her.

"Ricky suggested that I should do homeschooling. That way I could move down there with him so he could help me out with John….and myself."

"Well Amy if that's really what you want to do your senior year, I don't mind. I just want you to want to do that."

"I do mom…I don't want people staring at me like they did when I was pregnant with John, and I could really use Ricky's help. I'm going to talk to the counselor tomorrow during school since I have my appointment after my last class."

"Ok sounds good to me." She said not looking all that thrilled.

"Thanks mom." I said with a smile. I turned to John, "Are you ready to go home?" I asked him.

"Home!" He replied smiling at me.
