Chapter 25

Growing up

Amy POV

About a month has passed.

Loud cheers fill the stands; they have just won a big game against a rival team! I wait outside the locker room to wait for Ricky. Once he comes out I give him a big hug and we walk to the car.

Amy: "Look at that, my baby is going to be the next Matt Kemp"

He chuckles and says, "I love you baby".

Amy: "What is so funny?"

Ricky: "You are just too cute, I'm a pitcher babe and Kemp is a center fielder."

Amy: "Shut up, you know what I mean."

He pulls me in for a kiss. Immediately after our kiss I say, "I'm starving!"

Ricky: "What sounds good?"

Amy: "Hot Wings… No…. Pizza…. No… Chinese food…. Hmmm I want a Cheeseburger and a chocolate milkshake!

Ricky: "Are you sure now?"

Amy: Ha-ha I'm sure baby; it just took me a minute."

Ricky: "Yeah and a list of every food."

Amy: "Well we have to feed our little slugger; I hope he looks just like his daddy."

Ricky: "Lucky kid." He says with his signature smirk, that still gives me butterflies.

After dinner we go home and relax together in bed.

Ricky: "How about tomorrow we go shopping for our little man?"

I squeal and say, "Yes!"

He turns off the light and gives me a kiss goodnight.

When we wake up in the morning, we eat breakfast and head out to go shopping. Once we are at "Babies R US" we start picking out stuff together. This place is huge and it has everything.

Ricky: "I wasn't thinking we should have researched safety ratings and stuff. But let's buy some clothes and blankets for now. We will come back once we have checked into the other stuff."

Amy: "That sounds good."

Ricky: "After we are finished here do you want to get some Maternity clothes?"

Amy: "Yes, I have been saving up to buy some."

Ricky: "Don't worry about it."

We spend the next couple of hours shopping and eating. Ricky gets a call and says "We gotta head home."

Amy: "Is everything okay?"

Ricky: "Everything is fine; dad just needs to talk to me."

Amy: "Oops did we spend too much money?

Ricky starts laughing and says, "Don't be silly."

Once we get home Ricky calls out, "Dad, where are you?"

Leo "Hey guys, can you come upstairs for a minute?"

We head upstairs and Leo is in the room across from ours which is usually a guest bedroom. As we walk in Leo, Camille, Ben, and Adrian yell "surprise" and I start to cry it is the most beautiful nursery I have ever seen. "I can't believe you guys did this! It is amazing thank you so much!" I give each of them a hug and turn to Ricky, "I can't believe you picked out all my favorites perfectly!" He replied, "Well Adrian helped with that."

Amy: "Aww thank you so much everyone!"

Adrian: "We are going out, just us girls, but first we got to go pick up Grace."

Amy: "Let me go put my phone to charge, babe if you need to reach me call Adrian."

Ricky: "Okay baby, have fun!"

Once we get to Grace's house we go inside and there is a lot of friends and family there and they yell "Surprise!"

Amy: "Man you guys are killing me with surprises today. You guys are the best!

Adrian: "Let's see if you feel this way after all the baby shower games we are going to play!"

I just laugh and we all have a great time.

Ricky POV

Ben and I went out for dinner and we just got back. I go to the room and I hear Amy's text message alert go off and I just ignore and put up my keys and stuff. Her phone goes off again. I think to myself, "Who could it be because she is with all her friends and family?"

I ignore it again and go to take a shower and when I get out. I hear her phone go off again. I'm curious and this starting to bug me. I see the texts are from Mike and there are 4 of them but there is a lock on her phone. I think to myself, "Why the hell would she have a lock on her phone?" I guess it though.

The first text says: "Hey Ames, you never called me back last night?"

The next one says: "I hope I didn't overstep my boundaries and offend you."

The next one says: "You didn't sound upset last night."

The next one says: "Call me when you can."

Ben comes into my room and says, "What are you up to?"

Ricky: "Reading Amy's text, you wouldn't believe this crap."

Ben: "Why the heck are you reading her text?"

Ricky: "Her phone kept going off like crazy so I thought it was important and I saw it was Mike and I wanted to know what he wants."

Ben: "Yeah, it's still wrong brother."

Ricky: "So you are telling me you would never go through Adrian's phone if she was getting messages from an ex?"

Ben: "No, I would trust her."

Ricky: "Yeah, we'll see."

Ben: "Well just relax maybe she has a logical explanation."

I read the messages to Ben and then say, "It looks like she is talking to him behind my back all the time."

Ben: "It does look weird; I'm not saying you shouldn't talk to her about it. You just stay calm about it until you have all the facts."

Ricky: "Fine, Mr. Perfect."

I leave her phone on the bed keeping it on the text from him. I start working on my homework. About an hour later, Amy gets home and says "Hey babe today was amazing thank you so much." She goes over and kisses me on the cheek and gives me a hug.

Ricky: "You're welcome."

Amy: "I'm going to take a shower."

Ricky: "Can we talk for a minute first?"

Amy: "Uh' oh what did I do now?"

Ricky: "I'm not sure. I was hoping you could tell me."

Amy: "I have no clue what you are talking about."

Ricky: "Why are you even talking to Mike? I thought things have been going really well with us."

Amy: "What the hell are you talking about Ricky?"

Ricky: "He was texting you constantly tonight? Asking if he crossed the line?"

Amy: "How would you know what he was texting me?"

Ricky: "I checked your phone because it kept going off and I thought it might be some kind of emergency."

Amy: "I can't believe you are spying on me, I have nothing to hide."

Ricky: "Oh that's why you have a lock on your phone?"

Amy: "The code is our anniversary. If I was hiding something it wouldn't be that easy to guess."

Ricky: "Okay, I'm sorry I shouldn't have gone through it. But I do want to know why you are talking to your ex-boyfriend?"

Amy: "We have been friends long before we went out. I was calling to offer my condolences because his parents were killed by a drunk driver a few nights ago. Since then we have talked a few times but just about normal stuff, nothing flirtatious."

Ricky: "I'm so sorry, I still don't understand why he would ask if he crossed a line if something wasn't flirtatious?"

Amy: "I told him we were living together and he just said that it seems a little rushed because of our age and if it's just because I'm pregnant it might not work out between us. He meant it as a friend looking out for me."

Ricky: "Sure he did, and what the hell does he know?"

Amy: "I love you. You have nothing to worry about. I'm going to take a shower."

Ricky: "Okay."

While Amy is in the shower I go to Ben's room.

Ben: "So how'd it go?"

Ricky: "Well you were right that she had a good reason to talk to him. I still don't like it and I am pissed that she kept it from me."

Ben: "I know but everything is good right now, you should just drop it."

Ricky: "Okay, but if it was me she would be flipping out."

Ben: "That's why you are just going to be the bigger person."

Ricky: "One of these days I'm going to get tired of being the bigger person."

Ben: "Don't think like that. Amy and you have come a long way the past few months."

Amy POV

After I get out of the shower and get dressed. I get into bed and check my phone to read the messages that Mike sent and send him a quick text saying "No, I'm not mad at all. I had a surprise baby shower today and it's been really busy over here. Talk to you soon." Ricky comes in our room and is on the phone he shoots me a quick glance.

Ricky: "Why are you in your pj's so early?"

Amy: "I was thinking we should watch a movie while eating popcorn and pickles."

Ricky: "Well I wanted to go to a party; I told the guys we would go celebrate our big win yesterday."

Amy: "After today I'm exhausted but you go have fun."

Ricky: "Are you sure?"

Amy: "I'm sure baby, have fun!"

I wake up from my sleep and it is 12:30am and Ricky still isn't home. I call him because I'm worried.

Ricky: "Hello"

Amy: "Hey, where are you?"

Ricky: "Youuu know where I am."

Amy: "I thought you would be home by now." I can hear his friends laughing in the background.

Ricky: "I'll be home laterrr."

Amy: "Okay… Have you been drinking Ricky?"

Ricky: "You aren't my mom or my wife so what's it to you?"

Amy: "I'm not going to talk to you when you are like this. You shouldn't be driving I'm going to wake up Ben so he can pick you up."

Ricky: "Don't bother, I'm crashing here tonight."

Amy: "Fine!" I hang up the phone.

I then receive a text message from Ricky "Now you can have more time to talk to Mike while I'm not home."

I text him back "Grow up"

I pack some my clothes and stuff and leave Ricky a note saying "I'm going to stay at my dad's house with my sister for a few days. I really do love you Ricky."
