After arriving back to Amanda's Liv figured Amanda would want some time to herself so she began to pack up Noah and his stuff. Even though they had no school tomorrow cause of teacher-staff development. Liv and Amanda still had to work. Before Lucy could take off, Liv asked her to watch the kids tomorrow and said no problem. Amanda asked Liv to stay, and help her go over options. Liv agreed. After all she did care for Amanda and there were feelings there. "Liv, you, Noah, Jesse and the squad are all I have for family. If possible I need you guys more than ever right now." Liv hugged her "Sweetie you have us, no question." As if on cue or something Noah came over and hugged Amanda. "Please dont cry Auntie Amanda, I love you, Jesse loves you and Mama does too." Olivia's heart melted at this interaction between one of her best friends and her son. The bond her son and her friend had was beautiful. Amanda smiled, wiping away the tear. "Noah you sweet boy, you know exactly what to say. I love you too, and your mama, you both have done so much for Jesse and I and I appreciate it." Since it was close to dinner time, they decided to have pizza left overs. After they finished Noah came over to Amanda "Auntie Amanda, I'll take Jesse in her room and set up my game again. I think mama wants to talk with you." With that he got Jesse to go give Liv a hug and her mama a hug and kiss. He went over and gave his mom a hug and kiss, she whispered in his ear "Thank you sweet boy." He smiled and the kids went on their way to play the game.

Liv helped Amanda clean up. God being with Amanda in this setting was so domesticated. Actually felt like this was the way it was supposed to be. As they were cleaning up there was a sudden knocking on her door. Amanda wasnt expecting anyone, so she looked at Liv and shrugged her shoulders. When she opened the door she was not happy when she saw who was on the other side. It was Al. He was fuming.

"So when the fuck were you going to tell me huh? You're my girlfriend and you hide this news from me. The fact that your fucking pregnant." He pushed the door a bit to try and let himself into Amanda's apartment. She told him to leave, she told him she ended it. He yelled at her again bout being pregnant, Liv had heard the commotion at the door "Amanda everything okay?" When she didnt hear reply she came to the door. "I assume you're Al? You're the asshole I saw the other night at the bar all over some cheap whore. Amanda said she ended it with you so what the hell are you doing here?" He glared at Olivia, this was his and Amanda's conversation; not this bitch. "This is my girlfriend and I's conversation. You dont need to be a part of. She's pregnant with presumably my child. I have a right to know." Amanda was pissed, the only person that knew right now was Liv and she knew damn well she hadnt text anyone. Amanda hissed in anger at him "I want to know how you found out. This is none of your concern as we are not together. Since I'm assuming the hospital left out the paperwork and you stuck your nose where it dont fucking belong, you read it and didnt have permission. That is patient confidentiality." Amanda punched the door in anger forcing Al to take a step back. He looked at her, "We need to talk. Especially if this is my child. Considering when we first got together you didnt want another child." Amanda stood at the door, Liv close behind being very protective. Amanda retorted "Well you said you wore protection. You said you yourself didnt want to have any children. So what the hell?"

They continued to argue at the door, and Liv could see the toll it was starting to take on Amanda. She came over to the door and put herself in the middle. That pissed him off even more. "How the fuck does she know before I do? Especially if I am the father of this baby." He started to push in more, as he did that the more protective Liv got. Liv stood on the other side of Amanda. "Look Al, this is our first time meeting and I already dont like you. Look how you are treating Amanda. Yelling at her, trying to push your way in her apartment especially when Jesse is here. Come on." Oh he didnt like that. He didnt feel Amanda needed back up. "No disrespect intended to you but this is between the mother of my child and I. Not you." Amanda looked at him, tired and wearily "Can you just please go. We are over. I dont have to deal with you." He snarled and pushed the door back and when it did it hit Amanda in the head. She hissed in pain "What the hell? There was no need for that." She stepped backward and rubbed her head. When she did that Liv stepped to Al. "You're on thin ice. You do not put your hands on a woman, even more so especially on a woman who is pregnant. So I am going to say this, unless you want me to have someone from my department come down and arrest you I suggest you leave. Cause I am not going to stand here and let you harrass her and possibly scare her child as well as my own." He just looked at Liv, he had no clue that she and Amanda were this close. When they first got together she and this woman who was in his face were not on good terms as Amanda had told him she had ripped her in the break room. As Liv continued to stay in his face and keep him out of Amanda's apartment the angrier he got. "Look I dont know why you feel the need to stick your nose where it dont belong. This is between Amanda and I. The two of you were not close when we got together and you know nothing of our history." Amanda was too tired to argue anymore and really too tired to tell Liv to let him be, so she stood back and watched. She was beyond grateful that Olivia had her back. "Oh I know you cheated on Amanda, with working girls. And you're dead wrong if you think I'm just going to stand back and let you treat her like shit. If you thought that well you're dumber than I thought. So Amanda and I had differences doesnt mean I'm going to sit back and let a sanctimonious prick like you fuck her over." Oh Al was pissed, now this bitch was standing here running her mouth.

"Sanctimonious huh? Where the hell do you get off? She can get knocked up and not even tell me? What kind of shit is that? Amanda I'll say this, if you keep this bastard child and it is infact mine I will get some sort of custody you can bet on that." Oh that did it, Amanda charged to the door, Liv held her back, and in return slapped good ol Dr. Al. She was so pissed she damn near spat out the words. Making sure to keep eye contact "You'll get any kind of custody over my dead body you son of a bitch. Yeah you heard that right, you want to threaten Amanda with that shit, you'll be dealing with me and the best attorneys because I dont play when my friends and coworkers are threatened. Welcome to the battle you will not win."

Doesn't look like Dr. Al went about things the right way. So he violated patient confidentiality by reading paperwork that confirmed Amanda's pregnancy. Now he wants to get custody. I'm not thinking his threatening Olivia was too smart? Liv is going to protect Amanda at all costs. Will Liv threaten him about his 'custody threat' with a threat of her own? We shall see. Amanda is going to need Liv more than ever now and it doesn't seem that Liv is bothered one bit.

As always thank you for the reviews and the response to this. Till the next chapter... prolly up within the next few days.
