HEY! So I'm currently writing chapter 30 once I post this chapter because the pages I wrote in all are about 20 pages long and I didn't want to write one long ass chapter when I could just split! So enjoy "Sugar Were Going Down" chapter 29. Chapter name based on a song by Fall Out Boy (Love them!) 3

Grace's P.O.V.

It's August! Finally, so all seniors are out of here. I hope that everyone can make this last week less painful. I've heard the rumors and Jack and Madison and the devil child they'll be raising with each other and I'm over it, I don't care about what they do me and Jack had our fun for 15 minutes at the party, so he's all Madison's now. I don't want anything to do with him

"Grace!" My name is called by Jack, carrying a big box

"What?!" I said in annoyance

"I want to tell you that I want your help for the Football Seniors Promotion"

"Why?"

"I guess since you did such a good job with the Prom and Ben's party, I was hoping you can help me with the Promotion"

"No… I'm busy, I'm alright helping Amy and Adrian with something and I need all the time I can to study, and help my friends"

"Grace please… I know that's bullshit. Because Adrian isn't here and Amy is helping Ricky" He said. Shit! I need help

"Jack, let me put this in simplest terms so you can understand… I hate you; I don't want to help you with your fucking Football hoe party because I have better things to do. You can ask your Hoes or your baby mama because I want nothing to do with you from this day forward. Good-bye" I walked away to the west wing of the school to find Amy or Ben; I don't know someone I actually like

"Ricky!" I said surprisingly loud

"Grace?"

"So talk to me… Are you happy about leaving High School and going to college?"

"I guess?"

"What?" I asked

"You're scaring me. Did I do something I wasn't suppose too?"

"No, No not at all, why do you seem jumpy?" I asked him but I think I was the jumpy one

"Me? Jumpy? Grace what's wrong?!"

"Okay I was just trying to get away from Jack and then I saw you and I wanted to talk to someone because Amy isn't anywhere to be found and I think I really need a guy's opinion about assholes. I know everything about you and Amy, don't hit me because you're the one that told me"

"Grace I know about you and Jack… I've been in the same situation once upon a time, it's going to be okay and I'm not going to hit you… I know I told you everything about Amy and me because I wasn't drunk when I told you. So we're cool?"

"Yeah. Are you okay?" I asked because I was really worried about him, I saw the tension in his jaw when I asked him and his eyes grew larger

"I don't want to hurt her Grace…but I don't want to stop, if I stop drinking I'll be dead on the road right now"

"She knows that Ricky, she wants you to talk to her… or get help"

"Help? You can't fix something if it's broken badly" He said leaning against the school wall

"Why? What makes you think you're broken?" I asked, he chuckled

"Because I'm always hurting her. Have you seen her back or arms lately? She's dead. Since I'm already scraped up she's next that's how I can tell I'm broken"

"Have you tried breaking up with her?"

"Grace trust me that was my very first option, but she doesn't want to let go. I can't leave her… We already know how that went, she almost killed herself"

"What's up Grace" Amy said behind me, where the hell did she come from

"Amy?!" I said shockingly. OMG she lost a lot of weight and she look lighter then she was she had her hair up with a short dress on with leggings and a cardigan with combat boots on, I looked back at Ricky who shrugs and gives me the I-told-you-she-looked-dead look

"Amy. Hi it's been only 2 weeks and you are a stranger"

"What? I've been doing school work from home because I'm not supposed to be seen with Ricky at school" She said and glance at Ricky

"I should go" Ricky said making his way down the hall, but Amy somehow caught him quickly

"Why? I just got here; don't you want me to help you with anything for your last day here?" She asked. Poor Amy she's relentless

"Amy you just said we can't be seen with each other in school, so try to stay with Grace… all day" he demand

"No" she always does that

"Amy." He said her name coldly like she was a child

"I want you" she said and that was perfect timing

"Amy…Amy, baby girl I know but you have to stay away from me for the whole 8 hours. Did you eat?" He asked her. Ricky look at her, the girl is barely there

"No, but I'm not hungry. Why can't you take me to the café if you want me to eat so badly?" she said

"Amy please stop making this difficult, it's very distracting" Ricky said, and I know exactly where this was going

"Stop trying to change the relationship then…I like it how it is" She said, I don't think her body agrees with her. Ricky sighs and looks at me in a please-come-get-her way

"Grace" Ricky called me. I knew what he wanted me to do take Amy away for the whole 8 hours

"Come on Amy" I said being gentle and taking her hand

"Ricky you really want to do this again?" she said looking serious

"I'm not going anywhere but to class and you can't come. I'll see you in 8 hours"

"That's too long" She said, god help this relentless child please

"Fine 4 hours; and that's it okay? That should hold you" He said then told me to take her

"Amy come on let's eat" But she completely ignore me

"Ricky… I love you" she said on the verge of tears. Shit! She's good at this helpless job, I looked at him I gave him the you-better-say-it-back-because-she's-relentless- look and he knows that. It took him a minute to say it but I know he will

"I love you too" he said. YES! I took her to the school café and try to get her to open up

"Amy do you want a sub or pizza for a main?"

"I'm not hungry, I just want to go" she said, and now she's a liar

"Okay sub it is…two subs please, Amy can you grab two mixed fruit bowls and two bottles of water. Because you're eating, or else I'm telling the school you have an eating disorder and you'll be in a Rehab somewhere on the west side and you'll be far away from Ricky and John as possible"

"Okay I'll eat, get your thong out your ass"

"Good" that was bipolar of me, but it got her… we grabbed a table and I set up her food in order

"Okay so sub, fruit and water…eat" she signed and began to eat

"Grace you talk to Ricky more then he talks to me… what's his problem?"

"You… he don't want to hurt you but he doesn't want to stop drinking"

*Charlotte's P.O.V.*

"Ben can you call the hospital to check on Liam" I asked

"No, because I called 2 minutes ago"

"So anything can happen in two minutes"

"No, and stop shaking your leg your making me do it"

"I can't help it I want to know how Liam is doing" I said

"Umm… geez I don't know…FINE!"

"Then why is he in the hospital?!"

"Because he's 4 an half pounds… IDIOT!"

"Ben and Charlotte…calm down" Principle Montréal said

"Mr. Montréal do you have a little sister"

"Ben shut up" Charlotte said

"I'm talking to the Principle, so leave me the hell alone"

"Ben do you need Ms.O'Mally's help?" Montréal asked

"I can't I only have $20 on and I'm busy today" Ben said ignorantly I punch his arm

"Ouch! You female dog!" He yelled

"Ben that was ignorant! You play too much"

"No I was being serious" He said then left the table

"Principle M. I'm sorry for my brother… he lost Mercy, his daughter"

"I see make sure you keep him on a leash" Principle Montréal said in humor

"Okay" I said, after an early lunch the Freshman left early, Sophomores helped the teachers and Juniors chose to help the Seniors; but I have no Senior to help so I called Zane for the 5th time

"Charlotte?" Zane asked, he sounds sad or heated

"Hey baby, are you okay… you sound better like… 20 minutes ago"

"Well a lot can happen in 20 minutes" He said. Okay something is bugging him really badly

"Well what happen or is it none of my business"

"My dad called me and said that my birth mother came to California to see me…"

"That's good…you can finally tell her how you feel and that you want her apart of your son's life now" I said with excitement

"For $50,000" he said and all of the blood rush from my cheeks. The bitch is crazy, does Zane even have that type of money if so how? He's only 19

"She wants to see you for money?"

"Yeah… being the son of a well know millionaire isn't so good after all"

"So she is asking your father for money?"

"No…me"

"You?!"

"Yeah, I'm not giving her a fucking dime…What have she ever gave me?!"

"Baby you really should talk to her, because what if she didn't put you up for adoption? What would you be doing? Would you have the same amount of money you do now if she kept you?"

"I'll be in the same place I am now… and why are you taking her side"

"I'm not! I'm just saying you should talk to her because she might have an explanation"

"Charlotte how would you feel if someone told you should talk to your Mother and why she abandoned you!" He said coldly, my heart stated to beep faster. That's a good question; I don't know what I'll do

"I guess I would do it…in my own way" I said

"Would you now?" He asked

"Yeah… I guess"

"Well there's the difference between you and me" he said bitterly then hung up. Great! Another baby I have to care for…

*Ben's P.O.V.*

Geez! What the fuck is my problem?! I think going back to Rehab is the best idea for me right now

"Ben? What's wrong" Jaylnn asked me on the other line of the phone

"All the crazy shit I did over the past 3 years are my worst memories, I think I need therapy. I can afford it"

"Okay Ben I think you're going over your head, Benny you don't need therapy just a friend"

"You are my friend or were… my friend… but anyways, I'm telling my friend or girlfriend…you I need therapy" I said desperately

"Well I know a person who can help if you think you really need it"

"That's great! I'll talk to anyone. Who is it?"

"Her name is she's helped over 200 people from around the world so I know she can help you, she helped me with my drinking problem so she can you"

"Okay can you call her or make an appointment her tell I'll pay $300 a session"

"Umm Ben? I don't think she needs that much she's not Oprah Winfrey"

"Please Jaylnn, just call her" I told her

"Okay. Ben…if she says she'll see you, can I come with you?" she asked. Why in the hell would she ask me that?

"Truth?" I asked her before saying my answer

"Yes" she said

"Okay, honestly no I wouldn't bring you. I don't want you there with me… there's something that could mess with your head"

"Okay, so I won't go"

"Thank You"

*Jack's P.O.V.*

What the hell is my problem?! Why me why did I had to get a girl pregnant, and I don't even love her…for real though, I don't even want Grace anymore. There's nothing I want anything to do in the girls in this School anymore. Thank GOD! This is my last year, last day to be a High school Scholar. Then College girls will come…

"Jack!" the pregnant girl shouted

"Madison I'm right here, there's no need for you to shout" I told her

"I was trying to ask you if you need help, juniors get to help seniors you know"

"Yeah I know but I don't need your help" I said a little bitterly and I don't know why

"Why not"

"Because I said so! I swear Madison if you don't stop asking I'll—"

"You'll what Jack!?"

"I'll dump you…for good and careless about the baby" I told her

"And I'll make you pay child support…EASY!"

"That shit is foul Madison because you knew exactly what you were doing the night you got pregnant!"

"That's BULLSHIT! I wasn't on top! Don't blame shit on me"

"Madison we're done…for good this time" I said and her eyes started to go soft and tearful

"What?" she asked

"I'm tired of having the same argument with you, I mean really. Do you want to have a life with auguring when the baby is born?"

"No but we can work it out. Jack please don't let us go…I'm pregnant"

"What's wrong with you?! Why do you want to keep us together know we're falling apart"

"Because… Because I want a family with you, something that Grace didn't have with you or have can have"

"No it's something else… What is it?! You have almost everything you want; a car, big house, nice room, an IPhone 5, and friends"

"No…I don't… I don't have friends anymore, Lauren doesn't want to talk to me and Amy is always sidetracked, she has friends, she has more money than ever before because of Ben's dad, she has a hot guy for the father of her son... Charlotte got pregnant, she has a perfect life; hell she even got a friend. I have nothing I'm moving to Kentucky next year because my Mom got fired from her job and lost half of the savings account, and plus I'm pregnant… I can't afford a baby so I thought if me and you could get back together and move in together we can raise him/her on our own" Madison said sobbing hard, everyone keeps staring at us

"She's pregnant!" I told them

"Jack you can't leave me… your all I have left, you can't do this to me" she said, this is unfair she is making me feel obligated for nothing

"Madison you should go… and start a new life in Kentucky; do homeschooling and I'll give you 40 or 50 bucks to help out with the baby, because I can't be with you… I'm going to College to study and meet the one, and Madison you're not the one, so don't make me feel obligated because of one time…We're done and that's how it was meant to be once and forever. Good bye" I told her. She wasn't begging, she wasn't yelling; but she was crying and walked away in shame and disappointment but that's life or her life anyway

"Thank God this is the last day for me as a High school scholar"

*Ricky's P.O.V.*

2 hours had gone by quick since I talked to Amy; I haven't even kissed her… I am I starting to feel less attractive to her? Nah, I can't… I love her too much, or that lease I think I do? No! Ricky stops thinking like that. I didn't want to leave her with Grace, but I had a point. She couldn't come with me to class, but she could have helped me for my last day here… what am I saying she could barely hold the door because she's only 91 pounds. I wanted her to eat something and hang out with Grace, to talk to or talk her in to staying with her parents; even though it will hurt me so badly, I care about her safety more. I hate seeing her hurt but I'm starting to relieve stress and it's the only way I can do it. I don't want to sound like Robert, but I can see that I'm my father's son; I can hear his voice in my head saying: "You're just like your old man Richard" No the hell I'm not! I want to be my own man, and I want John to say the same thing. I don't want John to be like me because I'm a bad man nor I want his mother to be with this bad guy. I'll tell her that we can't stay together, because I'm a danger to her health but then again she'll go CRAZY! And put a stake to her heart and die. So I can't but I want too… It's the right thing to do.

"Amy…I got to make this quick before someone see us" I said pulling in the empty classroom. She looked scared and tired but her eyes looked fearful

"What's wrong?" I asked her, she never looked like this before

"You're dumping me? Aren't you?" She asked. Damn that was quicker then I wanted it

"Yeah. Baby girl it's not going to work out if I keep hurting you"

"That's bullshit! You know you don't to leave me and John for a… $13.68 bottle of Vodka" she said harshly, Geez! She is taking this break up to the heart

"Amy I don't want to stop buying the $14.00 (the actual price) bottle of Vodka. And if I'm drunk and your home I'm hit you and smack you around then fuck you. Is that what you want as a life forever with a son watching? Marrying an abusive man and a jackass dad doesn't look your type" I told her, she folded her arms and sighed

"Ricky you're not your father! You're nothing like that man and you know that! If you feel that you have a ''drinking problem'' talk to Dr. Fields, he's been asking about you for 2 months now! You don't have to let me go!" she said on the verge of tears. I sighed and walked closer to her; unfolding her arms and places them to my hands

"Hey… I'm sorry" I said softly

"I love you Ricky... Why do you hurt me like this? The love bites, the scars and the bruises don't hurt as much as this "We should break up" thing. This is painful" she said, she was also being emotionally abuse by me too? Damn I'm damaged

"If you really love me, you'll understand why I want the break up and know that you can't be around" I told her letting go of her arms

"That's not FAIR! I understand why but I'm not going to listen, even if you drag me out of house I won't leave, I'll stay. I don't want be clingy but your being an ass so I have no choice but to be there" she said. I wanted drag her now for being stubborn but again she and I are back together… for now, I started to smile in wit by her choice of words

"An ass?" I asked amused

"Ricky its isn't funny, and you are being an ass"

"Your right its isn't funny, but an ass… you couldn't say something else?" I asked, she didn't want to smile but I saw a smirk

"There's my girl" I said

"I haven't kissed you all day you know that don't you" she said placing her hands on my face with my hands around her waist

"What shall we do about that?" I asked her

"I think I have an idea" she said, I kissed her

*Ben's P.O.V*

After school I went back home alone, Charlotte said she was going to get a ride from Zane. I told my dad to track Adrian down, to find the baby; since she changed her number I asked Grace for it and that was a piece of chocolate cake… and she is in Virginia Beach I don't why it didn't hit me at first because she always cry to mommy when we had problems. I leaving tonight to see her, I called Ruben and he said he was coming back from there visiting Mercy; Adrian is so fucking stupid, she knew I would find her.

"Dad I'm about to pack up for my flight, I want you to cut Adrian off for the whole week"

"What Ben?" he asked

"Because she's living off your money, and if you cut her off she would have no choice but to come back and stay"

"Ben she wasn't born poor, her mother has money, she's living in Virginia Beach. On the Beach"

"So… Cindy isn't going to keep giving her money, so I want you to cut off her phone bill and weekly allowance and her credit cards bill declined"

"So you're leaving her with nothing"

"That's the thing about marriage dad"

"Ben you know nothing about marriage boy"

"And you do?"

"Ben I'm married"

"So am I!"

"You're separated" he said amused

"Right and her last name is still mines, and so is Mercy's"

"So what? Now you own them?"

"Yup. And I want the bitch cut off, she left with 50,000 dollars the other night, and that my money that I fucking earn ever since you cut me off, so tell her that she's cut off"

"She what? Ben where did you get that money?"

"Bunny raised Ricky and me 50,000 grand high ever since she quit and I kept it and saved it for a rainy day but when I told Adrian about it the night of our wedding I told her that it was money for the baby"

"So you told that it was her money?"

"I told the bitch it was our money for Mercy and she's spending it all on whatever"

"My God Ben! You're not supposed to do that"

"Well I'm fucking 18 dad, I didn't know what the fuck I was doing till Mercy came!"

"Fine I cut her off"

"Thanks!" I said then walked up the stairs

"BEN!"

"Yeah Dad!"

"Where's Charlie" oh shit! I forgot to call her

"Umm I think with Zane"

"You need to go and get her, the hospital called Liam might die" Dad said, No! Not my nephew! I called Charlotte and by the 4th ring she answers

"Hello?"

"CHARLIE!?"

"Yes! Ben"

"Dr. Klein called dad and Liam is having a problem, Where are you"

"On my way to the hospital now, I'm with Zane… What's wrong with my baby? She asked worried

"Charlotte it's okay, Liam is strong he can get through this" I said getting my keys and headed out the door with dad

"Is daddy with you?"

"Yeah"

"Put him on the phone"

"Okay… Dad she wants you"

"Oh hell! Hello? Charlotte calm down…No… It's a—They want to be sure…Okay sweetheart…Charlie are you with Zane? Okay so you two have to see if you two can cope about this…No need to yelled" And they just keep going, she is never going to stop to freaking out
