The first week in the apartment flew by. It was hard with everybody's schedules to share the bathroom and the food was almost gone. It wasn't as easy as Ruthie had thought it would be.

Everybody was tired and their seemed to a daily argument between Mac and Monica and Ruthie had barely seen Martin and it was like she was back at home. She had the day off and slept in so there wouldn't be a fight over the bathroom.

When she did finally wake up she walked towards the bathroom and thought she was home alone until Martin walked out of shower. She just stood there looking at him with the towel around his waist as he walked into his bathroom without even noticing her.

"Hey Martin." He jumped and turned around looking at her.

"Hey what are you doing home?"

"I have the day off and I slept in."

"Oh. What time are Mac and Monica gonna be home?"

"Later."

"It feels like I haven't seen you in forever."

"Yeah I know, but its not that hard because its just like before."

"But its not supposed to be like before. I mean we live together."

"Yeah but we both have jobs and you have baseball, so its not that different but its okay. I have things to keep me busy and you have things to keep you busy. Plus we get to see each other after baseball's over. Its not like we're never gonna see each other."

"Yeah, I guess. What would you like to do?"

"Well we have to get more food."

"Then we'll go grocery shopping. Then we'll come back and I'll make you lunch."

"Sounds good." She went into her room and threw on some sweats and a tank and they were on their way. It was nice being with just Martin. They were torn between their friends when they were constantly arguing.

"So what do you think is going on between Mac and Monica?"

"I have no clue and its getting old. I mean everyday something sets the other off."

"You're lucky though, I'm there all the time."

"Yeah but I would much rather be with you. Ya know you can come watch the games I mean the kids would love to meet you."

"Why they don't even know me?"

"That one time you called, one of the kids was like who were you talking to and I said my girlfriend. So they asked if they could meet you."

"I feel famous."

"Yeah. I feel like I haven't talked to you in forever."

"Yeah. I missed you." They shared a kiss in the produce section. The mothers around them with their children just looked at them. It was like they were married how they were having playful fights about which cereal to buy or which was cheaper.

When they finally got home it was around 1 in the afternoon and Ruthie just wanted to sit on the couch and watch a movie. Martin made them grilled cheese for lunch and they sat on the couch and watched a movie.

After the movie Martin was called and he had to go coach his team at the game that didn't happen last week due to rain. Ruthie was quite excited to meet Martin's team who was dying to meet her, she felt like a famous movie star.

When they got to the field the players were warming up and some even looked quite angry at Martin for taking so long. Ruthie just laughed at Martin saying he was just a Prima Madonna. She had actually showered so she at least looked clean but it was funny how much she and Martin looked alike and they had gotten dressed at different times.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late."

"Hey coach who's that?" One of the little boys pointed at Ruthie and Ruthie bent down and stuck her hand out.

"Hello I'm Ruthie Camden and you are?"

"Jordan Michaels."

"Its very nice to meet you."

"Guys this is Ruthie my girlfriend."

"Oh so you're the one he can't shut up about."

"Aaron, I thought I told you not to say things like that."

"Its nice to meet you Aaron. I'm guessing you play in the outfield, short-stop?"

"Yeah how'd you know?"

"I used to watch Martin play all the time his senior year."

"Hey Martin where's Mac?"

"I think he's at work but he'll try and be here. Okay guys time to win. You can sit in the stands or in the dug-out."

"I'm gonna go sit in the stands. It's like high school all over again." Her cell started ringing and she walked towards the car to answer it. "Hello?"

"Hey Ruthie where's Martin?"

"He had a game."

"Oh could you ask him something for me?"

"Sure."

"You could ask if he could get my mail for 2 days?"

"Sure, why?"

"I'm going out of town."

"Oh."

"Thanks Ruthie."

"No problem Robbie."

Martin's team lost the game by one run and it was kinda cute how even Martin was upset. Ruthie knew the perfect way to cheer them up. She knew that having little brothers would pay off some day. "Hey guys, who wants ice cream?"

"We only go for ice cream if we win." Justin said looking like he was about to cry.

"Well I see a bunch of winners in my eyes. I mean who cares about the score, you guys are all winners to me."

"She's right guys."

"You're only agreeing with her because she's your girlfriend."

"No you guys played great. I haven't seen that much teamwork so far this season. So let's go get some ice cream."

They all cheered and Ruthie led the march to the ice cream stand. She liked the little guys, they reminded her of Sam and David. She didn't think she would miss her family so much but she missed Sam and David most of all. They were really upset when she left, they felt like she was never coming back. But she promised to call them and email them to tell her how its going.

After ice cream and hanging out with the team they noticed it was getting dark and decided it was time to head home and both were tired. When they got home Ruthie went straight upstairs to the apartment and she opened the door and flicked on the lights.

"OMG!" She dropped her keys and Martin came running up the stairs and starred with his jaw wide open.

A/N: Ha ha ha I'm gonna leave you guys hanging. I'm so evil, I hope you stay tuned to part 2.
