Devin screamed, and Adam rose out of bed, and grabbed the infant. "Hey Devin, Hey Buddy, Youre alright" He whispered into the babys ear. Devin bit his lower lip and sobbed, but stopped crying. "You hungry?" he asked, walking towards the kitchen. He shoved a bottle of milk into the microwave a heated it up for a minute. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a little red light flashing on the answering machine and pushed it. "Hey, youve reached Adams place, gimmie a name and number, and might call back" BEEP!... "Hi, Adam. Its Shane. I dont know if Im coming over to watch the hockey game tomorrow, cause Beth and I had a huge fight and we sort of broke up.. So I guess Ill call later" Click. Poor guy, Adam thought. The microwave beeped, and Adam got out the bottle, Devin accepted it gladly. His eyes began to slowly close, after a few minutes, so Adam layed him back down in the crib. "There ya go" He whispered, as Devin stirred. He headed back to bed, He had to work tomorrow. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ RIIINNNNGG. The phone woke Amy up. "Hello?" she answered groggily. "Ames, hi. Did I wake you up?" Stacy asked on the other line. "Uhh, no" Amy lied, looking at the clock 12:23 pm. She slept in. "Well are you busy later on tonight?" She asked. Amy thought to herself. "No, not busy. Why?" "Cause Adam's holding a party over here, and I am sending Devin to my sisters house for the night" Amy smiled, Stacy really did need a break sometimes. "Yeah, sure sounds good!" she said happily. "Great, Bring Jeff too...Look I gotta jet but I'll see you later on, around 7, okay?" Amy nodded "Yeah, see ya!" @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ "Jeff does this look bad on me?" Amy asked throwing on a purple top. Jeff nodded in approval, "Niiicccee!" He laughed. "Its not too tight right, does it make me look fat?" "God, your paranoid. It looks good, its a shirt, Ames" He chuckled to himself. He stood behind her in the mirror and kissed her bare shoulder. "You look great" he complimented, while taking off and getting some clothes ready for himself.

"Jeff! Over here!" Shane yelled from a crowd of guys. Jeff waved and walked over while Amy stayed with most of her girlfriends. "Hey man whats up?" Jeff smiled. Jeff already knew about the whole, Shane-Bethany war, so didnt really want to bring it up in the conversation. Shane shook his head "Nothing much... Hey how's Ames doing?" he asked sympathetically. Jeff tilted his head to the side. "She could be better" He said plainly. Shane nodded. A silence grew over the group. Chris broke it, "So how bout them Lakers?" he smiled while taking a sip of his beer. "They suck like always" Jeff laughed "When are you gonna realise that? Come on cheer for Carolina, the king of basketball grew up here, Michael Jordan!" he said. Chris rolled his eyes. "Michael, who?" he joked. Jeff took a sip of his iced tea, he never really drank a lot of beer. He glanced over at the girls who were talking amongst themselves. "So then I called Jay up, and he used his I need more space line, Damn it guys, like maybe after I found that phone number of Jennifer's in his pocket, I'd need more space to kick his ass" Maria blurted out. "I need another drink," she said heading for the kitchen. "Poor Maria," Stacy sighed." Jay was no good from the start" Amy said nodding her head. Amy sat down, and Stacy joined her. "So how you doing?" Stacy said staring straight ahead. Amy sighed "I'm not doing anything I mean.. I don't know" She mumbled into her cup. "Hmm..." Stacy sighed putting and arm around Amy. "Everything's going to be alright, I promise" She shocked herself when she realised she quoted Matt from his hospital bed. His words, trying to reassure her that life would go on but she didnt want to let it. She thought in her own little world for a few minutes, until interrupted by Amy. "You know what I mean, hun?" Amy asked. Stacy snapped out of it. "Yeah, I know" she said, trying to sound as if she had a clue of what she was speaking about. Amy nodded "You're the only one that understands me" she smiled and hugged Stacy. Maria came back, and smiled as she sat down with her bottle of beer. "Amy, you are so lucky you and Jeff are settled down, and hes not showing his ass, and trying to go after other girls" She smirked. "Either that or hes really good at hiding it" she laughed. Amy smiled. "No, hes okay for now" . Stacy sat quietly and nodded her head. There was a pause. "So Hows Devin?" Maria finally. Stacy smiled "Really, good. He's been trying to walk all week" She smiled. "But he's cheating and hanging onto the edge of the couch " "Where is Devin anyways?" Amy asked plainly. "Oh, He's with Adam. Hes such a good help around the house" She smiled in her own little world. "Im happy I moved in with him" Maria smiled and laughed at Stacy. "Oooh really?" Amy shoved her in the side of the ribs. "Oww!" Maria called out. Stacy smiled. "Yes... Really."
