The next day at church...

Ricky and Grace were walking into church and saw Jack.

"Good morning Ricky, Grace." Jack said nicely and Grace rolled her eyes as she walked past him.

"Can I talk to you?" Ricky said seriously.

"What is it?" Jack said intrigued.

"Stop begging Grace to come back to you...We're staying together for the rest of our lives and nothing is going to change that...And if you ever pull something like this again, so help me God I will make sure you regret it." Ricky said sternly as he looked at Jack in the eyes.

"I understand...But just cause things didn't work out with your baby mama didn't mean you had to steal my left overs." Jack said meanly.

"You jerk! Don't ever talk about Amy or Grace like that again!" Ricky said loudly as he hit Jack on the arm.

"Ouch! That hurt man!" Jack said seriously as he rubbed his arm.

"Good...You deserved it...Freaking traitor and backstabber...I thought you were our friend." Ricky said firmly and he went into the room with pews.

"Jack! Are you ok?" Chloe said concerned as she walked by Jack from the bathroom.

"Yeah...I'll be fine...Apparently Ricky hates me cause of Grace." Jack said honestly.

"What do you mean?" Chloe said confused.

"Yesterday I kind of begged Grace to...take me back." Jack said sadly.

"Are you serious?! Why?" Chloe said shocked.

"I wasn't thinking and I'm sorry Chloe." Jack said sincerely.

"Are you still in love with Grace?" Chloe said concerned.

"No...That's impossible cause she's married to Ricky and I have you." Jack said in a depressed tone.

"Then why did you ask her to take you back? Have you been drinking again?" Chloe said intrigued.

"I haven't been drinking again...Just wasn't thinking...Guess I should go since no one wants me here." Jack said sadly.

"Wait...How can you say that? I want you here." Chloe said honestly as she grabbed Jack's hand.

"I'll talk to you later." Jack said honestly as he let go of Chloe's hand and walked out the doors.

"Jack...Where are you going?" Amy said surprised as she walked towards the doors with Ben and John.

"Hi Amy and Ben...I have to leave." Jack said seriously.

"Why? We came here to support you since you're doing a sermon aren't you?" Ben said kindly.

"Not anymore...My Dad can do it instead...I apologize." Jack said sincerely.

"You should take Ben inside John...I'll be there in a minute." Amy said sweetly.

"All right...Come on buddy." Ben said kindly and he went in the church with John.

"What's going on with you?" Amy said intrigued.

"Why do you care? It's not like we've ever been friends." Jack said a little irritated.

"Listen Jack, I know we were never close in high school but I know you pretty well cause of our other friends...And people are expecting you to deliver a sermon in there." Amy said honestly.

"Not everyone...Grace and Ricky hate my guts...He even hit me on the arm." Jack said sadly as he looked at the ground.

"Ricky hit you? Why?" Amy said surprised.

"Cause I asked Grace to take me back...I don't know what I was thinking." Jack said honestly.

"I don't understand how you did that...She loves Ricky and is married to him." Amy said seriously.

"But don't you get it? Grace was supposed to be married to me and you were supposed to be married to Ricky...Our lives got screwed up because of you...If you hadn't went to Hudson, none of this would have happened." Jack said firmly.

"Who do you think you are? None of this is my fault...And Ricky never loved me...He acted like he did for John and I'm very happy with Ben...Regardless of what you think was supposed to happen, it didn't happen...You just have to deal with the way things are now." Amy said honestly.

"I'm sorry Amy...You're right...We should go in." Jack said nicely and they went in the church.

Meanwhile at the hospital...

"Hey D...How's Lauren holding up?" Omar said nicely as he walked into Lauren's room.

"Nothing O...It's like she's dead but her heart is beating and she's breathing...I don't know what to do." Dante said sadly.

"There's not much you can do except be patient until she wakes up." Omar said seriously as he took a seat.

"Yeah but it's taking so long...At least your twins were born safely and I'm finally an uncle." Dante said concerned and then nicely.

"For real...I'm grateful they're healthy too." Omar said happily.

"Ava and Charlie are awesome names for them...I'm really proud of you and Adrian." Dante said kindly.

"Thanks bro...Hopefully Lauren will wake up before you two are supposed to get married." Omar said nicely.

"As soon as she wakes up we might have to elope...I don't want to risk anything else bad happening to her." Dante said honestly.

"Ha ha...I don't think Mom and Dad would like that man...They want to be at your wedding and so does the rest of our family and friends." Omar said as he smiled.

"Yeah but...you never know when something else could happen to her." Dante said concerned.

"There's no way something worse than this could happen to her...I'm sure she'll be better soon." Omar said seriously.

"I hope you're right." Dante said sadly.

"Hey Omar!" Shawna said kindly as she walked into the room with a boy.

"Shawna! What are you doing here?" Omar said surprised as he turned around.

"I've been in town for the past week visiting my son, Tony...Adrian let me know that you two just had twins." Shawna said nicely.

"Yeah...They came out early...Nice to meet you Tony...Has he met Jack yet?" Omar said kindly and then intrigued.

"That's great...And he hasn't...Should I invite Jack over later so he can meet him? His parents are out of town until tomorrow." Shawna said kindly and then concerned.

"You can try...I'm not sure if he'll want to meet him." Omar said honestly.

"All right...Congratulations on your babies...I gave Adrian a card and flowers...See ya around." Shawna said nicely.

"Thank you Shawna...Congrats on meeting your son...Talk to you later." Omar said kindly and Shawna left.

"Damn...Did you hit her? She's fine." Dante said as he smirked.

"Seriously? No I did not...Shawna's an old friend and Tony is hers and Jack's son." Omar said a little irritated.

"I'm just playing, Omie...Don't even trip...Wait...Jack had a son with her? And I thought our family was mixed." Dante said smiling and then honestly.

"Every family is mixed you prick...Heh...I'm going back to Adrian's room...We can go home whenever we want as long as she's feeling better." Omar said sarcastically and then seriously.

"All right...You two have fun with those little rascals." Dante said nicely and Omar left the room.

Meanwhile at the mall...

"Thank you for lunch, Daniel...I really enjoyed it." Clementine said nicely.

"No problem...Do you want to get a dress or something?" Daniel said smiling.

"Hmm...That does sound nice...Let's go in this store." Clementine said sweetly and they walked into a Forever 21 store.

"Daniel?! What are you doing here?" Haley said surprised as she walked over by Daniel and Clementine.

"Uh...Do I know you?" Daniel said confused.

"It's me...Haley...Your girlfriend." Haley said awkwardly.

"Excuse me? I'm his girlfriend." Clementine said a little irritated.

"Yeah...Sorry Hales but Clementine is all mine." Daniel said nicely as he put an arm around Clementine.

"But we just went to the Dairy Shack a few days ago...You told me that you used to go out with Grace Bowman." Haley said seriously.

"No we didn't...You must be getting me confused with someone else." Daniel said concerned.

"Did you talk to a guy named Ricky there?" Clementine said suspiciously.

"Yes I did...Why?" Haley said confused.

"I can't believe this...Goodbye Daniel." Clementine said in a frustrated tone and she walked out of the store.

"So was I just your side chick or something?" Haley said intrigued.

"Like it matters Haley? I just lost the girl of my dreams." Daniel said sadly and he walked out of the store.

"Whatever...I don't need him." Haley said annoyed and she walked by the dresses.

Meanwhile at Ethan's house...

"I am so sorry to hear that Ethan." Margaret said sincerely.

"Thanks but it's not like I care...Kathy's nothing but a sl-" Ethan said in a frustrated tone.

"Watch your mouth...Kathy is a very smart and kind girl...Yes she's made some mistakes but who hasn't?" Margaret said seriously.

"You're right...I just hope she doesn't have something...It could ruin the rest of her life or mine if we ever did anything." Ethan said sadly.

"I'm relieved you two haven't done anything...Both of you are way too young to be doing anything...Even if you use protection...Sex changes your life whether you want it to or not...Just ask Ricky." Margaret said honestly.

"Yeah, yeah...I know Ricky is the expert when it comes to this stuff...But I don't know what to do if Kathy has something that's not curable." Ethan said concerned.

"You'll have to make that choice on your own...If you really love her, then you'll stay with her no matter what the results are." Margaret said seriously and she left the kitchen.

"Man...Why does my life always have to be so complicated." Ethan said annoyed to himself.

A few hours later at Ben's house...

"Lauren's still sleeping?" Ben said concerned.

"Sadly yes...I wish we could see her and the babies but our flight leaves in a couple hours." Amy said seriously.

"We can see them after we're done for the semester." Ben said nicely.

"True...I think everything is packed...Except for John's stuff." Amy said as she grabbed a suitcase.

"Are you ok? I apologized for getting angry with you about Ricky." Ben said worried.

"It's not that...What Jack said to me earlier hurt...He blamed me for things not working out with him and Grace...Can you believe that?" Amy said a little irritated.

"Typical Jack...He can be a real jerk sometimes...Just forget about him...What matters is everything worked out for the best." Ben said honestly.

"I hope you're right...At least his sermon was good today." Amy said sweetly and she finished packing John's things.

Later that night at Adrian's house...

"Ava looks just like you, Adrian." Grace said sweetly as she held Ava in a blanket.

"Yeah she does...You and Ricky can babysit her and Charlie anytime." Adrian said kindly.

"Thanks...It will be good practice for when we...have kids." Grace said nicely.

"Uh huh...And when is that going to happen?" Adrian said intrigued.

"He already has John but...hopefully after I get my bachelor's." Grace said honestly as she looked up at Adrian.

"And after that you have ten more years of school?" Adrian said sarcastically.

"Ha ha ha...Very funny...More like four." Grace said smiling.

"Wow...You really are determined to be a doctor aren't you?" Adrian said curiously.

"Of course I am...It's my dream besides having a family." Grace said sweetly.

"I'm really proud of you, chica...I'm sure you'll be the best mother and doctor in the world." Adrian said kindly as she smiled.

"Thanks...I'm just trying as hard as I can...But...Jack." Grace said nicely and then sadly.

"What about Jack?" Adrian said intrigued.

"He asked if I would take him back yesterday." Grace said concerned.

"I'm sorry what? Is he crazy?!" Adrian said shocked.

"God only knows...Maybe Ricky and I should move...I'm so sick of Jack trying to ruin our lives." Grace said annoyed.

"Hmm...He did want to move to New York so you two could do that." Adrian said seriously.

"But if we do he might want to spend more time with John and Amy." Grace said in a worried tone.

"Is somebody jealous?" Adrian said suspiciously.

"No...I just don't want Ricky to fall for Amy again." Grace said sadly.

"There's no way that could happen...He loves you, Grace...Just trust him." Adrian said honestly.

"You're right...We should probably get going...It's getting late." Grace said sweetly and she handed Adrian Ava.

"All right...You should bring your dog next time." Adrian said nicely.

"Heh...Yeah...I'm sure Snickers would love Ava and Charlie." Grace said happily and she walked into the living room with Adrian.

"He is adorable...You ready to go hun?" Ricky said smiling as he stood up from the couch.

"Yeah...We have school tomorrow." Grace said kindly.

"Oh yeah...Thanks for dinner guys and congrats on Ava and Charlie." Ricky said nicely.

"Thanks Ricky...We're glad you two could come...Next time Ben and Amy will have to come too." Omar said smiling.

"Yeah...Have a good night." Adrian said sweetly.

"You too...Talk to you later." Grace said happily and they went out the door.

"So...do you want to go dancing or something?" Ricky said intrigued as they walked to the drive way.

"On a school night? It's already eleven." Grace said concerned.

"Yeah but we don't have class until noon tomorrow and I'm kind of in the mood to dance." Ricky said as he smirked.

"Heh...You're crazy...We could dance at home." Grace said as she rolled her eyes and got in the car.

"I have a better idea...Let's get steamy in the car." Ricky said quietly.

"Oh Ricky...I don't know...It might not be that comfortable." Grace said awkwardly.

"We'll have to put the seats down in the back...I'll make sure you're comfortable." Ricky said happily as he turned the car on.

"Heh...I guess it doesn't hurt to try it." Grace said seductively and she put her seat belt on.

"That's my girl." Ricky said nicely and he backed out of the drive way.

"What about dancing?" Grace said intrigued.

"We can do some of that first." Ricky said kindly as he drove past Adrian's house.
