Saturday morning, Lauren was feeding her daughter in the kitchen. They were going to Austin because Lauren had to make a few cake deliveries. Then, they were meeting Karma for a girl's day because Karma wanted to see Emma before she left.

"How are my two favorite girls?" Matt said giving Lauren a kiss on the lips and kissing his daughter.

"Dada." Emma said giggling. She always laughed when Matt kissed her.

"Hi baby. Ready for the trip? He asked his daughter.

"Trip." She repeated after swallowing her bite of oatmeal.

"Do you everything you need?" Matt asked Lauren grabbing a cup of coffee.

Lauren nodded. "I just need to put the cakes in the car and make some snacks for Emma in case she gets hungry along the way."

"I'll load the cakes for you. And I took the liberty of slicing some fresh fruits and placing them in small containers for today." He told her. Matt was always attentive when it came to his wife and daughter. There was nothing he wouldn't do for them.

"You're amazing you know that." Lauren said kissing him.

"I try my best." He replied smiling. Their marriage was almost perfect. After Lauren's failed relationships she finally found a keeper.

On their way, Amy called them to check up on them, and to let Lauren know that she had arrived at the hospital and that by the looks of it she had a hectic day ahead of her. Amy and Lauren always tried to keep contact over the day.

After Lauren delivered the cakes they drove up to a diner that had a playground across the street. Karma was already waiting for them.

"Hi there Emma." Karma greeted the infant. Emma smiled although she was bit shy.

Lauren picked her up and placed her in the high chair. "Emma, this is aunt Karma. Do you remember her?"

Emma stared at Karma. She was inspecting her top to bottom. Karma just kept on smiling and making her faces that would make Emma laugh until she did. "Arma." Emma said after a while.

"She's still having trouble with your name." Lauren said knowing that was Emma's name for Karma.

Karma smiled. "I can't believe how big she is. She looks just like Matt although she's got your eyes." Karma remembered the first time she saw Emma. She was about a month old. She thought life couldn't be more precious.

After they had lunch they made an exit to the playground. Lauren had Emma on her stroller until they arrived at the jungle gym. As soon as Emma saw the slide she couldn't wait for her mom to release her. When she released Emma she pulled Lauren towards the playground and began climbing step by step until she reached the slide. Karma was waiting for her at the end with her arms open. Emma was a little afraid to go down. She did slid down Karma picked her at raised her up. Emma laughter filled them with joy. Emma went on to explore the rest of the playground she even interacted with some kids who were there as well. Karma got tired of standing and went to sit down at a bench that was next to the sandbox where Emma was playing.

"I have to change Emma's diaper could you watch over the stuff?" Lauren asked Karma.

"Sure I'll stay."

While Lauren took Emma to the nearest bathroom Karma checked her emails and social media. She hadn't had the time of checking them because she has been spending time with her family and friends. Karma heard a ringing coming from Emma's stroller; it was Lauren's phone. Karma stood up and looked at the name it read Lindsay since she didn't recognize the name she didn't bother in answering. She waited for the call to go to voicemail. Minutes later the phone rang again, Karma just let it rang.

"Be careful honey." Lauren told Emma as she was making her way for the sandbox again.

"Lauren your phone was ringing." Karma told her.

"Did you looked at who was it?"

"Yeah. It said Lindsay, but I didn't answer."

Lauren rolled her eyes. What could Lindsay possibly want? Lauren unlocked her phone turns out Lindsay had called 4 times. Lauren called her back. Karma wondered who was the caller. Lindsay answered almost immediately.

"Hello it's me Lindsay." She said quickly.

"I have caller ID." Lauren backfired. She did not like this girl one bit. "What happened?"

"Have you talked to Amy recently?" Lindsay asked curious.

Lauren sighed knowing what this was about. "She called me around 8 in the morning to tell me she got to the hospital." Lauren answered. Karma's interest grew regarding the conversation that was happening next to her.

"She called me too. But I haven't heard from her since." Lindsay said sounding a bit unusual.

"I'm sure she's just busy. She told me she had a lot of work today. And you know she doesn't like to answer her phone when she's working." Lauren told her. Every time Amy didn't answer her phone this happened.

"Do you think Amy is cheating on me?" Lindsay said getting desperate. "I think I should swing by the hospital make sure she's there."

Lauren's patience was running out she took a deep breathe. "Just wait for her to call you. She's not going to be very happy if you show up at the hospital." Karma was dying to know what was happening.

Lindsay thought about what Lauren told her. "Yeah I guess you're right. If you talk to Amy, tell her to call me." She finished.

"I will." Lauren hung up. "I swear she likes to test my patience."

"Everything okay? Who was that?" Karma asked, her curiosity was killing her.

"That was Amy's girlfriend, Lindsay." Lauren revealed.

Karma was astonished by the revelation. She felt as if someone had punched her in the gut. She knew she had no right to feel any sort of jealousy towards the situation because she was engaged, but right now all she felt was envious of this person, Lindsay, who was with Amy.

"What did she want?" Karma tried her best to hide her jealousy.

"Apparently she hadn't heard from Amy since this morning." Lauren responded.

"And why does she call you?"

"Because I can do this." Lauren dialed Amy's cellphone. She activated the speakerphone. On the third ring, the blonde answered.

"What happened?" She asked nervous because Amy knew Lauren never called her while she was at work unless it was a true emergency.

When Karma heard Amy her heart just flipped. It had been 4 years since she had heard that voice. Karma swore she felt butterflies for the first time in a while.

"Everything's fine. Don't worry. Lindsay called me said you weren't picking up. She was even thinking about going to the police." Lauren said sarcastically.

Amy sighed. "Did you say to her you were going to call me?"

"Are you crazy? Of course not. I just wanted to give you the heads up." Lauren always covered for her in things like this.

"Thanks I'll give her a call later."

"You know what you should do? Dump her." Lauren advised her stepsister. Karma smiled and secretly agreed with Lauren knowing this was very selfish of her.

"Goodbye Lauren." Amy said annoyed as she hung up.

"I didn't know Amy was seeing someone." Karma said innocently hoping Lauren would tell her about them.

"They've been together a while." Lauren said truthfully.

"Sounds serious." Karma stated subtly.

"I'm just hoping it doesn't." Lauren quipped. Karma smiled knowing that once you got on Lauren's bad side you were stuck forever.

"That bad. Huh?"

"She's just too nice and so over attached to Amy. There's just something about her." Lauren had always told Amy her theory but of course Amy didn't buy it.

"Where did they meet? If you don't mind me asking."

"Unfortunately, at my shop. Once people in Dallas learned Amy and I were related and knew she often stopped by to grab breakfast women would go hoping they would run into her. What they didn't know was that Amy always ate in the back. Until one day she decided to use the front door and ran into her. They went out on a date and the rest is history." Lauren narrated.

Karma smiled because she was imagining all those women after Amy. She missed her terribly. There wasn't a day that went by where she wanted to go back on her deal but she knew she couldn't allow having something happen to Amy not again. Leaving her was the hardest thing Karma has ever done.

"Does she go out often as you know, dates?" Karma wondered keeping her head low.

"Not really. She sometimes goes out but it's never serious." Lauren answered. It took some time for Amy to want to go out on dates. "Honestly I don't know where she picks women up. When she's not at work she's home playing with Emma."

"Karma can I ask you something?" Lauren looked at her and waited for Karma to look back at her. "Why do you want Amy to go to the wedding? Are you having second thoughts?"

Karma wanted to scream at the top of her lungs "YES". She wanted to confess that she doesn't love Liam that she's marrying him to keep Amy safe. "What? No. I just thought that it would be a good idea to have her come. I guess to have closure. For the both of us."

"I told her about the wedding I don't think she's going to go." Lauren confessed. She saw how let down Karma was. "Maybe she'll change her mind.

Back at Dallas, Amy's shift had come to an end. After she finished her conversation with Lauren she gave Lindsay a call. Lindsay sounded like she was about to have a breakdown. Stuff like this made Amy question their relationship. Sometimes Amy felt Lindsay was too clingy, she wanted to know Amy's every move. Amy was getting takeout for her and her girlfriend, they were going to stay at Lindsay's and watch movies.

Amy knocked the door. Lindsay threw herself onto Amy kissing her. It was like they haven't seen each other in weeks.

"Someone missed me." Amy smiled.

"Always." Her girlfriend replied, taking the bags containing their dinner.

After they had dinner the couple moved to the couch to have a movie night. Lindsay had her arms around Amy's waist laying her head on Amy's shoulder. They occasionally began making out and forgot about the movie at all.

"So, why didn't you picked up your phone earlier? Why didn't you call me when you had a break today?" Lindsay questioned her waiting for an answer.

Amy looked at her. "I didn't have it with me." Amy lied she knew it was wrong of her for doing it but she didn't want to get into an argument. "And besides you know how I feel about answering the phone when I'm working."

"But I had me worried." Lindsay countered. Hoping Amy could understand where she was coming from.

"I know. My bad." She said. "I almost forgot. Do you have plans for tomorrow?" Amy changed topics.

"I'm hoping it has something to do with you." Lindsay said smiling.

"Were having a barbecue at the house and I would like you to come."

"Will your family be there?" Lindsay asked. She had been pushing Amy for weeks to take her to meet her mother.

"Just my mom, stepdad, Lauren, Matt and Emma." Amy responded.

"I can't believe you're taking me to meet you mother. I'm nervous."

Me neither. Amy thought to herself she couldn't believe she was actually going through with this. Meeting the parents was something serious in Amy's perspective and she still wasn't sure if she would want to be more serious with Lindsay. "You have nothing to worry about." Amy spoke after a while reassuring her girlfriend.

Lindsay brought her lips to Amy's and began kissing her passionately. Lindsay was on Amy's lap, she ran her hands through the blonde's hair. This turned on Amy; Lindsay raised her arms signaling Amy to remove her top. Amy explored Lindsay's exposed chest. She began caressing her girlfriend's breasts she then brought her lips to one of them. Lindsay was moaning as she began nibbling on Amy's earlobe. Lindsay aggressively took off Amy's shirt. When she couldn't take anymore Lindsay stood up and grabbed Amy's hand waling her to the bedroom. Amy sat down at the edge of the bed as she watched her girlfriend undress in front of her. Lindsay then threw herself at Amy's arms. Amy began tracing lightly with her fingertips a small trail to Lindsay's center, Lindsay's breath got uneven. She didn't know how much she could hold on. When Amy approached her destination she began introducing two fingers and slowing thrusting them. She then picked up the speed, Lindsay was clutching on to the bed sheets until she climaxed. Lindsay finished and she went to return the favor.

"My turn." Lindsay said recovering her breath. She pulled Amy's pants off.

What she didn't know was that as she began to kiss Amy. Amy's mind wasn't there, as much as Amy wanted to enjoy the moment, her mind was on Karma. When it came to sex Lindsay was too aggressive for Amy's taste. Her kisses were sloppy it was like she was rushing into things. Like if Amy was going to disappear on her. Lindsay went and ran her fingers around Amy's clit, a moan escaped Amy's mouth. She inserted her fingers inside Amy and began to move them. Amy eventually reached her climax, her secret was thinking in Karma. Sometimes Amy got pissed at herself because she and Karma broke up 4 years ago and she'd still have not managed to get her mind off her.

They were resting next to each other. Taking the moment in. Lindsay was playing with Amy's hair. Amy rose to her feet, she was leaving. Lindsay was let down to see Amy was not staying the night. Amy began to get dressed; Lindsay wore a robe to walk her out. They reached the door and Lindsay gave her a peck on the lips.

"See you tomorrow." Amy said saying her goodbyes.

Amy traveled back to the house. She tried to make as less noise possible, she saw light coming from the family, and it was Lauren.

"You're home." Lauren greeted her. "Did you call Lindsay?"

"Yeah. I stopped at her house after work." Amy replied.

"What did you tell her?"

Amy took a seat in the couch. "Nothing that I didn't have my phone on me. And I've told her that I don't like to answer it when I'm at the hospital."

"You know when you weren't picking up she was thinking on stopping by the hospital." Lauren informed Amy. "Don't you think that's a bit extreme?"

Amy rolled her eyes. Of course that was extreme. "She was just worried. She gets worried easy." Amy tried to defend her but she knew she was going to have to speak with Lindsay.

"You had sex with her didn't you." Lauren looked at Amy. She could always tell when Amy had her way with women.

"No, I didn't." Amy lied to her.

"Really. Your shirt's inside out, genius." Lauren began laughing as Amy noticed her shirt, she laughed as well.

"Shut up." Amy said throwing a cushion at Lauren. "I told her about tomorrow's barbecue. Can you please keep you sarcasm to a minimum?"

"I can't make any promises." Lauren warned her. She was not responsible if Lindsay tested her patience with her.

"Fair enough." Amy said as she was going to leave for bed. "I'm out, good night Lauren."

A/N: Here's a new chapter. Sorry for the wait. These couples of chapters are kind of fillers until we get closer to the wedding. Feel free to PM me if you'd like. Can't wait to hear from you. Enjoy.
