Weeks have passed since Martin came home from the hospital. Things have been great except for the fact that his ex-girlfriend is pregnant.
Ruthie stared at the phone after she had hung up and could still hear the words ringing in the head.
"Martin has a right to get to know his kids..."
Kids. A plural. Meaning more then one. Is it going to be twins? Triplets? Ruthie shook her head.
"What was that for?" Martin asked as he brushed passed her.
"Uh, nothing." She looked up at him and smiled, which he gladly returned. "So ah, I was wondering if you wanna go out to dinner with me. Just as friends I mean," She added quickly as he looked at her.
"Are you sure there is no other reason?" he teased.
"Maybe," She felt her cheeks burning as she said this. He chuckled. "What?"
"You look cute when you blushed." He said, and walked out, but not before saying. "And it's a date."

Ruthie and Martin found a seat at Pete's Pizza and sat down. They ordered and as they were waiting for there food to come, they laughed and joked amongst themselves.
"I got an email from my father today." Martin said out of the blue. He was smiling but Ruthie noticed a bit of sadness in his eyes. "Said he was coming home in about 3 weeks."
"That's great." Ruthie smiled.
"I know, but the thing is… when he comes home, I'm gonna have to move back in with him,"
"Oh." Ruthie didn't want him to leave but she was just happy for him to be back with his dad.
"Yeah," It was quiet for a second. Martin wanted to tell Ruthie something but got interrupted by the waiter and he thanked him.
"So what's going on with you?" Martin asked.
"You live with me. You, along with the rest of the family, know everything and anything that's happening in my life," She laughed.
"True," He chuckled. He looked and Ruthie and grinned sheepishly. He loved her smile. He loved everything about her.
Ruthie stopped smiling. "What? Do I have something on my face?" and suddenly touched her face.
"Now you do," He laughed as she wiped a long line of sauce on her cheek.
"What!" She exclaimed.
"Over there," He said, pointing to her sauceless cheek. "There we go. All gone." He lied as she wiped yet another long of sauce on her cheek. He cracked up as Ruthie looked up at him. She reminded him of someone in the army with war paint on there cheek, but instead of using paint, she used sauce.
"Martin!" She cried and ran to the bathroom.
He watched her and smiled to himself as someone unfamiliar came to him.
"Martin?" She said. "Martin!"
Martin stared at her as if she was crazy. "Um, yeah?"
"It's me! Z-"
"Zoë," Ruthie finished for her. "What are you doing here?"
"Ruthie! Hi!" She ran up to Ruthie and hugged her.
Ruthie could feel Zoë's baby bump against her body. "Hi,"
Zoë pulled away and looked at Martin. "I've missed you," She smiled.
Martin looked at Ruthie with a confused look on her face.
Ruthie grabbed Zoë's arm and pulled her aside. "Look Zoë, something happened."
Zoë's eyes widened. "What?"
"Um… Martin got into an accident and lost his memory. He doesn't remember anything that happened after April 2004."
"What!" She cried. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" She walked, over to Martin.
Martin panicked and looked at Ruthie for help.
"Zoë no," Ruthie said but it was too late.
"Martin there's something you should know."
