Chapter 14: You're Just Too Good To Be True

Amy rolled over stretching. She sat up as she noticed that the bed was empty. "David?" He walked in, with all the intention of asking her about the bracelet but on seeing her in his bed. Her hair all messed up and her expectant face, he couldn't. He knelt on the bed and kissed her.

"Sorry sweetie, I woke up quite a while ago, you look really sweet when you sleep." She smiled as he kissed her again. "So what were your plans for today?"

"I haven't decided yet. It depends?" She caressed his cheek.

"On what?"

"On what you want to do?"

"Really." She placed a finger on his lips.

"Uhuh." She pulled him into a passionate embrace.

For the rest of the day neither Amy or David talked that much. They were way too busy to be concerned with that. David had almost forgotten about the bracelet, and he had no intention to discuss it with her and spoil the mood.


Bruce had tried going to the gym to get his mind off of Amy, but her face kept invading his thoughts. As he stood in the shower he closed his eyes and his thoughts were immediately with her. It was like she was right beside him, with him there in the shower. He groaned as he remembered her touch, he did miss her so much. He remembered that time in her office when he had told her about when Rebecca was born. How he had sung to her, he hummed the song, wishing she could be there so he could sing it to her, again, and this time she would know that it was for her.

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray

Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

He could imagine the tears in her eyes, the crooked smile that would appear on her face. He would hold her hand as he sang it, so he could comfort her whilst singing. He bit his lip as he remembered how she had reacted finding out that he had delivered Rebecca himself. He remembered the conversation as if it had only happened yesterday;

He had entered her chambers to hand her some files.

"Did you get hold of Michael?" She had said, stopping her packing.

"No, he was out but I talked to Leisha." I looked at her, I knew she hated Leisha. "She said they would be happy to keep Lauren until the baby is born."

"Oh good," she had carried on packing. "I'm not even sure if Lauren knows where babies come from." I smiled, she was so untidy. "This might be a little much for her." I had smiled at this, she was such a caring mother, I loved that about her.

"Bye." I had turned to leave, knowing from the way Amy had looked at me that she wanted to ask me something.

"Hey Bruce," I turned and smiled as she spoke. "Wh....when did you deliver a baby?"

"When Rebecca was born." I loved the look in her face when he said that. "Mia's water broke at 5 o'clock in the morning, and we never made it out of the apartment. The baby came out before the paramedics got there." I stepped back to the desk, having opened up to tell the story, I wanted to be closer to her.

"No way!" She had a look of surprise and eagerness to know more on her face. I had chuckled at her response and at the memory.

"She was born at 5.37 in the bathtub." Amy seemed amazed at the detail I was recalling. "It was crazy, we didn't know what the hell we were doing, she was so tiny, screaming her head off." Amy was nodding to the story. "Ahh, I started singing this song that I sang to her during the pregnancy, and suddenly, she stopped crying. Just looked at me like 'hey, I know you.'" I chuckled again.

"Wow!"

"It was the most amazing day of my life." Although she was smiling, I could see the look of her eyes, it was a look of disappointment. I imagined it was from thinking of when she had given birth to Lauren. "You give Donna my best." I turned to leave.

"Hey, hey Bruce." I turned back to her. "What song was it?" I couldn't help but smile at this. I began to sing it.

"Your just too good to be true." Amy's face broke out in a smile at this. I looked away, but as I sang the next line I looked up at her. "Can't take my eyes off of you." I opened the door. "You'd be like heaven to touch." I closed the door behind me as I sang the next line. "I wanna hold you so much."

He stepped out of the shower, and got dressed. He had to go and collect Rebecca from Megan's. As he got in his car, he closed his eyes one last time to remember her and a silent lonely tear rolled down his cheek as he realised that they may never be together again. Only if McClaren did something wrong would he get another chance. Only than would he have his Amy in his arms. He reluctantly opened his eyes again and blinked any more threatening tears away.

"My sweet Amy, what would I do without you?"
