Take Me Out To A Ball Game CH9:

"Alright Amy, bend your knees slightly and grip the bat with both hands as you raise it and lean the bat at an angle." Ricky was instructing Amy as he wrapped an arm around the bat to position it correctly and the other arm around her waist to steady her. "Keep your eye on the ball, shift your weight and take a stride. Don't forget to follow through like a taught you." He made some minor changes to Amy's position and ran to get the baseballs to throw at her. Ricky took Amy to the batting cages because he knew it would help take her mind off of things, it worked for him.

"Just throw the ball Ricky, I got it," Amy said as she gripped the bat harder between her hands.

"Alright, I just don't want you to miss like with the golf ball," Ricky retorted as Amy rolled her eyes at him. The thing he didn't know was that when Amy was little her father taught her how to play baseball a bit. As Ricky pitched the ball, he threw at half the speed he usually throws. Amy concentrated on the ball flying to her and pictured it to be Clementine's head. As the baseball came closer, Amy took a swing and moved her hands toward the ball in a quick sliding motion. She let the momentum of the bat continue past the ball so that the bat almost makes a complete circle around her body.

Ricky eyes widened as Amy hit the ball and watched it fly above his head. He could hear Amy's soft giggles behind him, "Whoa! Where did that come from?" he exclaimed.

"When I was little my dad taught me to play a bit." Amy smiled at Ricky's amazement.

"Well I definitely wasn't expecting that!" Ricky laughed, "Alright I'll throw a bit faster now."

"Bring it on!" Amy smirked back at Ricky.

After about an hour and a half Amy and Ricky took a break and sat on the hood of their car, laughing and having a good time. Amy was blabbing on about a funny story she heard at daycare while Ricky stared at her intensely. Amy turned her head towards him and cocked her eyebrow at Ricky. He leaned in closer to Amy's face and softly pressed his lips against hers. Amy immediately kissed back and wrapped her fingers through his dark hair, massaging his scalp causing Ricky to let out a soft moan.

"I love you Amy, so much." He breathed out.

"I love you too Ricky. Thanks for tonight, I really needed this." Amy bit her bottom lip which she knew made Ricky crazy. "You know what I was thinking," She whispered softly. Ricky shook his head still staring intensely at Amy's lips. "We should sign John up for baseball."

Ricky snapped out of his daze, "Really?"

"Of course, I mean you did it when you were his age and had fun, I had fun, why not let John experience it. Plus it would be great for him to make new friends."

"I would love that. We'll go to all his games, I'll teach him a few tricks. This is going to be awesome!"

"Well I hate to ruin the moment, but I think we should go get John and head home." Amy said. Ricky nodded in agreement and hopped of the hood holding his hand out for Amy to jump off. He opened the car door for her, and then raced to the driver's side.

"Let's go home." Ricky said. Amy leaned over to Ricky and kissed him on the cheek.
