I sat in the cold room littered with health pamphlets. The chubby girl behind the desk was typing on her computer leaving us in the awkward silence to stir.

"We usually don't get cases as high profile as you!" She said spinning her chair around to meet our faces.

"Look I want him to get good treatment without any of the perks like being able to go shopping."

"This isn't a prison Mrs. Parker."

"No I know that… I didn't mean to sound insulting I just meant this is a good facility where he won't get pampered like the spoiled brat he is."

"Mr. Parker? Mr. Parker is this what you want?"

"Mrs…" I looked down at her wooden plaque "Heffernan he's out cold and its only 12 in the afternoon, his whole families worried about him. This isn't his first time in rehab, plus I'm really scared if he doesn't so something now, he'll kill himself doing this." I looked over at Drake with slobber dripping from the side of his mouth. "Drake… Drake wake up!" Drake stirred a little and looked over at me. "Tell her you want to do this program and get better so you can have your family back!"

"Yeah… right now I'll do just about anything." He mumbled into his hands as he ran them through his greasy hair. "Will I be able to see them?"

"Who Mr. Parker?"

"Ashlee and the baby?"

"Yes on family days and visiting days every Saturday and Sunday. Plus we have family sessions were you whole family is asked to come and sit in."

"Ashlee will you come and visit me?"

"Of course."

"And bring little man?"

"Yeah he misses you. Drake I am so proud of you." I started to cry I couldn't help it I just wanted the best for him.

"Ashlee I'm so sorry. I want you and the baby to stay at the house while I'm here."

"I'll think about it, okay?"

"Mr. Parker we have to take you in now."

"Here Drakes, this is your phone and stuff and you bags. I love you okay? Just do whatever they ask of you!"

Drake stood up and hugged me like he would never see my again.

"Bye Drake."

"NO don't say bye, I'll see you soon."

"Okay I'll see you soon." I blew him a kiss as he walked down the hall. I waited outside the door until I couldn't see him anymore.

I went back outside to Josh's car and laid my head on his steering wheel. I felt my pocket vibrate I pulled out the cell phone and saw that it was Josh.

----------------------------Phone Conversation------------------------------

Me- Hello…

Josh-Ashlee I'm at the house and you and Drake are both gone.

Me-I know I had to take Drake to rehab.

Josh- What it doesn't work.

Me-Look he's going to kill himself if he keeps going the way he was going.

Josh-Ashlee you don't know what you're talking about he did this last time you guys broke up and then he was fine after a few weeks.

Me- No he wasn't he didn't stop drinking he just wouldn't drink until he was stupid. Look he wanted to do this so just let him work this out he can leave anytime he wants.

Josh- You had no right. You're not family.

Me- you know what Josh he's not doing this for me he's doing this for Colton.

Josh- This isn't going to work!

Me- Well he's at Mercy visiting days are Saturday and Sunday. I'll be there if you don't want to see him there then don't come.

---------------------------I hung the phone up on Josh I didn't want to hear anymore.-----------------

I started up the car and went back to Jared's house I left a message on Josh's cell to pick up his car there. I didn't want to see him right now. I walked through the front door and Jared was laying on the couch with the sleeping baby on his chest. I couldn't help but smile they looked so sweet together.

"Hey Ash how did things go?" He stood up putting the baby down in the play pen.

"I took Drake to a rehab center." I said sitting down on the couch next to him leaning my head on his shoulder.

"Well it's probably best. You hungry I could make you some dinner?"

"No I'm okay but thanks I just want to sit here and never move."

"We can try." He said wrapping both arms around me and kissing me softly on the lips.

"Jared!" I whispered almost inaudibly. "I don't know."

"Shhh…" I didn't pull away I just went with it I let my body take over. I kissed his lips softly putting my hands all over his body. He lifted my shirt off slowly removing my bra. I don't really know what I was thinking about as I was doing all of this but I just wanted to be happy for awhile. He removed his pants and rubbed against me. The passion fizzled out when the baby started cry.

"It's alright he'll go back to sleep." Jared whispered in my ear kissing my neck.

He was right the baby stopped crying, and the kissing commenced. I let his lips explore my body without any objections. I always wondered what it would be like to be with him and it completely exceeded my expectations. He started to slowly take off my panties. I gasped for air as I felt him slid into me. My body went into shock and I could think anymore I just thought about how great it felt to be with someone who cared about me again. I kissed his lips and turned him over on the couch to take control. I worked my body the best I knew how to. The memory flashed into my head that it was his first time; I wanted to be the best he could ever have. He put his hands on my hips guiding my body.

"I love you Ashlee." He said as he released his hands and his body relaxed.

I felt guilty and dirty, not just because of Drake but because it was his first time and he should have done it with someone who felt the same way as he did. He should have done I with someone who loved him more than just friend. I just did it to escape from reality for a moment.

"I know you love him." He said running his hands along my bare legs.

I looked down at my bare body still situated on top of him, him still inside me. I didn't know what to say I was confused the feeling were rushing around my head, my heart my conscious. I just shrugged my shoulder and kissed his soft lips gently. Is this what I was waiting for? Maybe he is what I need.

I am on a friggin writing spree! Wootwoot…. Tell me what you guys think? Ashlee and Jared….
