Thanks guy's for reading my story, and thanks to my faithful reviewers, I continue to write for you guys you motivate me so much. And I hope you all enjoy this chapter! OMG Secret Life is tomorrow can't wait.

Lauren P.O.V

I pushed down on my brakes as I approached a red light, I than pulled my purse on my lap as I searched for my phone. I cursed at myself knowing there was no reason for my purse to be so junkie. I finally came across it as my search was interrupted by someone blowing their horn speeding pass me yelling out there window. I honked my horn, and yelled out my window being just as ignorant. I looked up to notice the light had changed green and was quickly turning yellow as I put my foot on the gas. I held my phone in my hands as I searched through my contacts for Amy's number. I found it quickly as I pressed the call button.

"Hey girl, what's up?" Amy asked extra cheery this morning.

"Nothing just wondered if you wanted some coffee or something, I'm on my way to the coffee house."

"Yes please get me a coffee, I defiantly need some caffeine it's going to be a long day." She said followed by a yawn.

"Someone must have had another long night." I asked as turned into the parking lot of the Coffee House.

"Yea I actually did, I've been seeing a lot of Mr. Underwood these past couple of nights, and boy have he been putting in work." Amy said now laughing.

"Ugh TMI it's eight in the morning which means it's too early to be hearing about you and Ricky sex life." I said as I open the door to the Coffee House.

"You're only saying that because you're not getting any."

"Amy," I said yelling at her as I mouthed oh my God to myself.

"What I'm just saying it's been a long time for you, you need to get laid and get rid of some of that stress."

"I'm quite content, but thanks for the advice." I said waiting in line for my order to be taken.

"I know your growing spider webs down there." Amy said bursting into laughter. I couldn't help but laugh with her, it was true. I haven't been with a man in a while, not even on a date.

"Well I'm just going to relax and let my guy find me." I said confidant.

"If you can hold out like that more power to you, but if you're going to continue to do this at least let me take you to a sex store."

"What?" I asked shocked.

"Hey you need something to knock your socks off even if it's just a battery."

"Ok good bye sex rabbit I will see you in like ten minutes."

"Ok Grandma," She said laughing before I hung up the phone.

Ricky P.O.V

"So tell us what's new?" I asked.

"He's having you guys followed; he is trying to pin any and everything on you," said Detective Crane.

"Well that's nothing new." Jack chuckled as he leaned on the side of the counter.

"He's also about to send an undercover agent, they're going to try and get a part of your guys crew.

"Well that would be close to impossible we don't mix with different crews." Ben said leaning against a wall.

"He's teaming up with someone you feuding with, that Mike guy he came down to the office the other day saying he knows everything about you guys and absolutely certain he can help bring you down." Detective Crane said looking between Ben, Jack, and I.

"Now that's something new", I said standing up and lifting up my shirt where I held 25,000 cash.

"I appreciate your generosity," I said handing him the money.

"Thanks," Detective Crane said as he took the money. "Oh and Ben you need to watch this," he said now handing Ben a tape.

"What's this," Ben asked leaning up off the wall as he accepted the tape.

"Just watch it trust me you'll thank me later."

"How's the wife and kids," I asked as I took one last sip of my drink.

"There good," He said.

"That's good; tell Renee I like the décor." I said walking towards the door as Jack and Ben followed.

Mike was now working with the feds to take us down; he was getting even more desperate. And so was Detective Ramsey, but what they both didn't know, was that I was always two steps ahead.

Amy P.O.V

I was starting to get delirious. I had seen over 50 people for the new sales position at my store but no one had stuck out to me. I needed them to have passion for fashion like I did or at least some knowledge about fashion.

"Oh my God this is so annoying," I said to Lauren as I put my head down on the table.

"I thought trying to find a job was stressful but it feels like the other way around is even more stressful." Lauren said rubbing the side of her head.

"That was the last one I guess nobody else is coming for the open interviews." I said now standing up as I walked over to my sister Ashley, I asked her to come over and help me with the store since she didn't have any classes today, and we were swapped with interviews.

"So how's it going?" I asked her as she was undressing and dressing a manikin.

"The customers are fine it's just this manikin thing is really not my thing I think maybe you or Lauren is going to have to finish this." She said pointing at the manikin.

"Yea you're probably right," I said looking at the manikin.

"You do know that the arms and legs all detached right that's why you were having such a hard time." I said staring at her as she stared at the manikin.

"Really?" She asked aloud.

"Yea," I said bursting into laughter.

"Oh, well you know I just where the clothes. All the other stuff that comes with them is your thing."

"I know but thanks for coming I really appreciate it, I think you're free to go now unless you just want to hang out."

"No I think I'm about to go I have to catch up on some sleep I haven't been up this early since I've been born."

"Eight o clock is not early," I said smiling at Ashley.

"For me it is," She said going in the back room to get her keys and her purse. "So I will see you this Sunday right for the family dinner.

"Yea I'll be there," I said to Ashley from the counter.

"Ok see ya, bye Lauren." Ashley said.

"See ya," I said back.

"Bye Ashley," Lauren said.

Ashley then walked towards the door as she held it open for a customer.

"Hi welcome to Timeless Vintage if there is anything you need just let me know ok." I said to the girl from behind the counter.

"Hi, she said approaching the counter. "I was actually here for the open interviews. I hope I'm not too late.

"Oh ok, um ok don't worry, you're fine. What's your name?" I asked as I took out a vanilla folder.

"Kai Venzino," she replied.

"Ok Kai just take a seat and I will be with you in a moment."

"Ok," she said as she walked over to the leather bench.

I then walked over towards Lauren where she was finishing the manikin that Ashley was having trouble with.

"Hey there is another girl here for an interview so I'm going to take her to the backroom to do the interview. Can you keep an eye on the store?" I said clutching the folder in my hand.

"Sure," she said not taking her eyes off the Manikin.

"Ok wish me luck."

"Forget luck I'm praying we can get this position field." Lauren said with laughter, as I joined her.

I walked over to Kai as I told her to follow me; I walked in the back room and told her to have a seat as I did the same.

"How are you doing today?" I asked as I placed the folder down on the table.

"I'm good; I would be feeling better if I get this job though." She said with a slight giggle.

"So would I," I said with a smile. "You don't understand how many interviews I did today." I said shaking my head.

"I can't even imagine I know your job sometimes can be difficult."

"Yea but I love doing this, and I honestly couldn't imagine doing anything else, but enough about me tell me some things about you?" I said pointing to her.

"Well I am in school full time where I major in interior design. I just love décor, I love to see the person expression when they see how I can transform a room into whatever their heart desire. I work at a gas station part time, but I am so ready for a change." She said laughing.

"I know you are I can't picture you working at a gas station."

"Trust me it's not my dream job just something that I am barely getting me by.

"Well at Timeless Vintage I like to hire people who have similarities to me, because I'm not going to be here every second of the day so I want to know that I am represented well, And I want a person who is hungry for this. So I'm going to give you some questions about designers and things like that and I'm also going to have you dress the manikins, Ok?"

"Sure I'm ready," she said standing as I stood.

"Good come on let's get started."

Adrian P.O.V

"Oh my God why won't you leave me alone," I asked answering my phone.

"Adrian as long as you have my baby, I am going to call and want to know what's going on with the pregnancy."

"How many times do I have to tell you this is not your baby?" I said getting annoyed.

"You can tell me how many times you like, but I'm not stupid and I don't believe you."

"Well were both fine, not that it's any of your concern. Ben is taking care of us very well." I said as a smirk came across my face.

"It wasn't that long when I was taking care of you, bye Adrian." He said with a chuckle as I hung up the phone.

"I'm starting to hate him more and more." I said to Grace and Piper as I through my phone in my purse.

"You're going to have to eventually tell Ben you know that right." Grace asked with her hands wrapped around the staring wheel.

"No I don't," I said looking at Grace.

"So what you're just going to go on, having Ben think this is his baby when it could possibly be someone else's?"

"If I have to then I will Grace, I am not about to let something like this break me and Ben up." I said ready to change the subject.

"Just know whatever's done in the dark will come to light," Grace said as I turned my head looking out the window in disgust. Grace was always giving advice that no one cared to hear or asked for.

Piper P.O.V

"Amen to that," I thought to myself after hearing Grace last statement. Everything done in the dark will come to light whether you want it to or not. I was currently in the back seat of Grace, Range Rover strolling down Amy's twitter page once again. I found this becoming my daily routine as curiosity got the best of me every time. I couldn't help but wonder when Ricky told me he was at certain places was he really there, so every time he would leave out that door I would be on twitter searching for answers.

Some may say I'm stupid but it takes a lot to leave a man who you love. I have no desire in life but to be the perfect wife to him. But I'm starting to question if he wants me to.

"Piper why are you so silent?" Grace asked me as she glanced in her rear view mirror at me.

"Just wondering when my life became so fucked up." I said now wiping my eyes.

Grace P.O.V

I was becoming tired of this depressing shit between Piper and Adrian. It was starting to stress me out; I turned around headed in the opposite direction, in attempts to solve one problem at a time.

"Where are we going?" Adrian asked.

"Where going to visit Timeless Vintage, I'm curious to know what type of shoes they have.

"Grace no," Piper said shooting up from her seat.

"Piper yes where going she's fucking your husband what do you mean Grace no." Adrian said

"What am I going to say to her?" Piper asked as her face turned red.

"How about hello I would appreciate if you stop fucking my husband." Adrian said to Piper.

"Ok your right she's in the wrong, she's fucking a married man." Piper said building up confidence.

"Right a married man who happens to be your husband, don't worry we got you," I said to Piper turning on my GPS.

Amy P.O.V

"Wow that looks awesome Kai, great job you defiantly have an eye for fashion." I said looking at the three manikins I had her dress.

"Thank you," she said smiling at me as she glanced at her work."

"Welcome to Timeless Vintage," I said with a smile.

"Really, Oh my God thank you so much." She said pulling me into a hug and tears strolled down her face.

"Wait what's wrong?" I asked looking at her as Lauren looked up from the register as she was ringing up a customer.

"I'm sorry it's just nothing good ever happens to me. I work so hard in life with school and everything and I am finally seeing that dreams do come true. Two minutes ago I didn't know how I was going to pay for my next semester of classes and now I do. Thank you." She said again.

I put my hand on to my chest as I tilt my head and said. "You're welcome and I happy to have you at Timeless Vintage."

"Congratulations," Lauren said walking from the register as she gave Kai a hug. "I'm so happy for you; you brought tears to my eyes Lauren said as she wiped her eyes gently making sure not to smudge any make up.

Ben P.O.V

I watched this video over and over again. I was on my fourth glass of scotch, as I watched my fiancé engage in sexual acts with another man. Jack and Ricky watched the video with me the first time, but turned their heads at the sight of Adrian's naked body. They decided to leave to give me some alone time with my thoughts. I couldn't formulate words, I was devastated. I gave this girl the world; I would've given my life for her if I had to.
