Ricky's POV
Amy and I were so excited. I decided that I'd take her shopping, so she'd have a couple more outfits to wear to school. Anne dropped us back off at the house so I could take her to the mall in my car. We got into my car and began our way to the mall.
"Ricky I love you." She said.
"I love you too Ames." I told her.
"I hope that we'll have a lot of classes together." She told me.
"I hope so too, and even f we don't we'll eat lunch together. I promise." I assured her.
"The only thing I'm nervous about is Ben." She told me.
I took her hand and held it, she looked at me and smiled. We were almost at the mall, only a couple more blocks.
"Don't worry Amy. I'll be there." I told her.
We arrived at the mall, and walked hand in hand through the doors.
"So where do you want to go?" I asked her.
"Well first lets go to a store for me, and then we'll go to one for you." She told me
"No no no no… Amy this is for you not me." I told her
"Ricky that's not right. You should get something if you're getting something for me." She said.
"Nope, I don't want anything. I just want to be with you." I told her, and put my arm around her.
We walked into the first store. She got a spring dress and went into a dressing room.
"Oh wow." She said.
"What, what's wrong?" I asked.
"I love it." She said.
She opened up the door and there she was in a baby blue spring dress. It looked amazing on her.
"You want to buy it?" I asked her.
"Okay." She said and smiled.
We walked up to the register and bought it. Once we were out of the store I gave her some money and told her I had to buy my foster mom a birthday gift. She offered to come but I told her it wasn't necessary. About fifteen minutes later we met outside of the store she was just in. She had bought another outfit. I wrapped my arm around her waist.
"So are you hungry?" I asked her.
"A little." She said.
"Want to head to the food court?" I asked her.
"Sure." She said and smiled.
"Alright lunch or ice cream?"
"Hmm Ice cream!" She said.
We walked over to Mr. Freeze and ordered two vanilla ice cream cones. We sat down at a little table and ate.
"I kind of miss John." Amy told me.
"That's okay I miss him too. We can pick him up now if you want." I told her.
"No it's okay, I like spending alone time with you." She said.
All of a sudden she put a small glob of ice cream on my nose and giggled.
"Oh I see how it goes." I said and put a small glob of ice cream on her cheek
She giggled and kissed me. We wiped our faces clean of ice cream and kept eating.
"I like that Grace and Jack are John's godparents." She said.
"Yes, I do too. I think that they're the perfect people for it." I told her
"I do too, they really are great friends." She said.
"Yea they are." I said.
We decided to keep walking and finish our ice cream cones on the way to the next store. We walked down holding hands and finished eating before we went into the next store. Amy tried on a tank top and skirt. It was a pink tank top and denim skirt. After a while we decided to head home. We both needed to eat dinner and pick John up from George's house.
Amy is a fantastic cook, she can cook anything perfectly. She made Grilled chicken parmesan. It was amazing. We enjoyed it very much. Once we finished we cleaned up, I did the dishes and she washed the counters and table. Everything cleans quicker when you work together. Once we finished we relaxed for a little while. We sat on the couch and talked.
"I'm so excited to go to school." She said.
"I know me too, I can't wait it'll be nice to see everyone." I told her.
"I called the daycare and they agreed to everything. And the best part is that I won't get charged since I'm working but I'll still get paid." She told me.
"That's fantastic!" I said excitedly. This couldn't be better. Nothing could ever be better.
We decided to walk down the block and pick up John. I helped Amy put her coat on and we walked down to George's house. We rang the doorbell and waited.
"Oh hey come in." Ashley said.
"Hi thanks." I said.
George was on the computer working on something for his job. The house was quiet, and very clean. Ashley seemed really happy. She went upstairs to go get our son and carried him down.
"He fell asleep about an hour ago, he was really good. He barely ever cried, unless he was hungry." She told us.
She placed john in his infant stroller and waved goodbye to the baby. We said our goodbyes and left. As Amy and I were walking down the block we decided to just go around the block once. It was perfect outside and it was our last day of being home with John.
"I'm so happy, everything's perfect. I have the most wonderful Boyfriend, such a good son, and I have my own house." She said quietly.
"I know, life just can't get any better." I told her.
We finished our walk and made our way back to the house. I carried John up to the nursery and changed him into his pajamas. Amy went to her room to change into hers. When she was done she took John and sat down in the rocking chair. She began rocking him and softly singing a lullaby. She then walked over to the crib and placed him into it. We shut off the lights and walked into the hallway. I kissed her goodnight and we went into our rooms. This couldn't get any better.
