Chapter 11

"I'm going out," Amanda said to Cody.

"What? But we've been having fun the last two days."

"True," she said with a nod, "but I have a date."

"A date with whom?" he asked her.

"Do I have to tell you?"

"Well, I'd like to know."

"But I'm not going on a date with you, you shouldn't have to know."

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Pretty Please?"

"Cody, I'm not telling you." She said starting to get ready.

"Pretty please with a cherry on top?"

"O M G! Fine. I'm going out with Randy."

"God damnit. I thought that was over and done with me."

"Maybe for you it was," she said with a smile. "But for me it so totally wasn't."

"Amanda, I don't want you to go out with him."

"Tough! You are not my boyfriend Mr. Rhodes."

"Fine," he said folding his arms. Than he grinned and looked at her, "Will you go out with me?"

She stopped what she was doing and looked at him. "Are you for real?"

"Yeah come on we could be happy."

"Not today, Rhodes, I have a date."

"So you are just going to go out, fuck Randy and than tomorrow come back to me? You broads are all the same."

"Who are you calling a broad?" she asked.

Ignoring her he shook his head and walked away.

"What is going on?" Ted asked looking between his father and Juli.

"I have to tell your something," Juli said looking up at him.

"You might want to sit down, Teddy." His father told him.

He sat in the chair across from them and looked worried. "When I left forty-five minutes ago everything was fine."

"It wasn't exactly fine; I just didn't know how to tell you."

"Tell me what?" he asked confused.

"Ted," she looked over at Ted Sr. and he nodded at her to go on. "I'm pregnant."

"What?" He said standing up quickly. "You're wrong there is no way. I was with Kristen all those years and she never got pregnant."

Juli's eyes filled with tears. "Well, it's happened. I took a test and it told me I was. Why do you think I've been going to the bathroom so much and my breath is always minty clean when I return?"

He sat back down. "Fuck. Well, this ruins everything."

"It doesn't have to son, nothing has to change."

Ted looked at his father, "a baby is a big priority that goes ahead of a lot of things."

She sat in the chair crying unable to say anything.

"It doesn't mean everything else in your life has to stop. Son, your mother and I are here we can help you."

He walked over to the window, looked out it and ran his hand through his hair. That was when he heard her tears. Turning around he was went quickly to her side.

"I didn't mean for this to happen," she said through her tears. "I don't want to ruin your life. If you left me I'd understand."

"Why would I leave you? You are having my baby." He said placing his hand on her belly. Smiling he looked up at her than kissed her softly on the lips. "I love you."

She looked into his eyes. "You've never said that to me. Don't say it if you don't mean it."

"I do mean it. I love you."

"I love you too," she said throwing her arms around him.

"Everything will work out. I promise." He said holding her tightly.

Amanda knocked on Randy's hotel room door and smiled as he opened the door and invited her in. Her smile soon faded as she saw Evan sitting on the bed. "What's going on?"

Randy walked up behind her and folded his arms. "We found out that you were seeing both of us."

"Oh, yeah, well about that-"

"There is nothing to explain," Randy continued. "We're fine with it."

"Really?" she said surprised thinking about Cody freaking out about it.

"Yeah," Evan said. "We were thinking that instead of you just going out with Randy tonight. You could go out with both of us."

"So when did 'going out' become slang for sex?" she asked them.

"It doesn't matter," Randy said walking closer to her. "All that matters is what your answer is."

She looked between the two of them again to see if they were for real but no one said anything. Shaking her head she spoke. "One time only."

"Only once?" Randy said moving closer to her and stroking her cheek.

"Yes, once will be enough for all of my fantasizes." She said smiling up at him.

"Hmm, you'll have to tell us all about them," he said beginning to kiss her neck.

"I think we can arrange that," she said bracing herself for what was to come with a huge shit eating grin on her face.
