Amy's POV
I was standing at my locker when Lauren and Madison came running over.
"Why didn't you tell us?" they asked me at the same time.
"Tell you what?" I asked.
"That you moved in with Ricky." Lauren said.
"How did you two find out?" I asked.
"Ben came over to us. He went insane because he thinks that he loves you again. He went to go to your house yesterday but when your mom answered the door she told him that you had just moved in with Ricky." Madison said.
"You two better not go spreading this around I mean it!" I yelled.
I ran over to Ricky.
"I know, look let's just relax okay? It's not a big deal. They'll just spread anything around. We're happy that we moved in together. Today's the last day." He said while holding my hands.
"Alright." I said.
Ricky and I went over to science. Of course written on the board was "Free Period" So Ricky and I sat on the science tables and talked.
"Okay so now can we talk?" He asked.
"About?" I asked.
"That dream." He said.
"You're still thinking about that?" I asked laughing.
"Well I'm curious about what goes through your mind." He said smiling
"I told you we were married, we lived in a beautiful house, and we had two kids." I said. "That's all." I smiled.
"What was the house like?" He asked.
"It was big, open. It was a yellow house. Two floors with a white porch that wraps around the house. The back had a beautiful pool and cabana. Oh Ricky it was beautiful." I said.
After a few more classes lunch came around. I ate with Ricky, jack, and Grace. I turned around looking for Madison and Lauren. I saw Ben looking at me. I shivered at the thought of getting back together.
"Are you cold?" Ricky asked.
"No I'm fine." I said turning back to eat.
A few minutes later Ben came over.
"Uh Amy…" Ben started.
"What do you want Ben?" Ricky asked angrily.
"To talk to my wife." He snapped back.
"Ricky, I'll be alright." I sat holding his hand.
"No, I know what he wants. It won't be alright!" Ricky yelled glaring at Ben.
I looked at Jack and Grace. They knew something that I didn't, I wish I knew what. I got up and walked to the side with Ben.
"Amy my love, I missed you so much. I want so badly to get back together. I'll hold John and love him as if he was my son. Amy, please love me too." He said and opened up a box which held a necklace, beautiful diamonds all around it.
"B-Ben. I don't k-know." I said trying to hold back tears. Why was he doing this, it's killing me.
"Amy I love you I want to be with you. You are my life I love you, and I want to love you forever." He said.
"B-Ben we had a fake marriage, I'd like a fake divorce." I said as I closed the box that held the necklace.
I walked away and I sat down next to Ricky. I'm glad that he didn't put his arm around me, or tried to hug me. I just wasn't in the same mood as I was before. I ate lunch in silence no tears, or anger. I just didn't feel like talking. Ricky, Jack, and Grace kept talking though. I'm glad; I didn't want my mood to ruin their lunch.
The bell finally rang and Ricky and I walked to my locker to get ready for my last class.
"Are you alright." He asked.
I nodded; I just wanted Ben to leave me alone.
"Are you sure?" He asked
I shook my head, He pulled me into a hug and I buried my head into his shoulder. Now the tears came, just a few. No sobs or hysterical crying. Just a few tears. Together we walked to our last class.
When the end of the day finally came, Ricky drove me back to our house. I couldn't believe I could say it like that. Our house. Margaret and Ricky talked quietly while I went downstairs to lie on the bed. I felt my phone vibrate in my back pocket. I looked at the screen, Ben. I let it ring. I never wanted to talk to him again. I waited for him to leave a message. No message, maybe he finally gave up. My phone vibrated again, as I prepared myself to yell at him I saw that it was Grace.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Hi Amy, its Grace. I was wondering how you were feeling." She said.
"I'm actually much better." I lied.
"Good, I'm glad to hear it." She said.
"Grace I have to go, John's crying." I lied again.
"Okay Bye." She said, and we hung up.
Ricky came down the stairs. He sat down on the bed with me.
"Amy, whatever Ben said today… I'm sorry. Don't listen to him; he'd just try to get back at me." He said.
"No, Ricky he wanted to get back together." I said almost choking on the sobs that I held back.
"Amy, I know it's hard. We'll get over him together. We never have to see him again, we can block his number and if he comes to the door I'll punch him." He said.
I laughed a little. "Thanks Ricky." I said and hugged him.
"Look, Margaret wants to watch John tonight. She says that since she's off of work that she'd like to play with him. I gave her all of his toys and they're having so much fun. That gives you and me the opportunity to go out to dinner." He said.
"Ricky that's great!" I said smiling.
"Alright get dressed and we'll go out." He said.
A few hours later we came back from dinner, it was wonderful. After dinner we walked around the flower gardens nearby. It was such a beautiful night, so romantic. We walked through the front door, Adrienne sat on the couch, and Low cut tight jeans a revealing shirt and shoes. She looked pretty comfortable; I knew what she was up to.
"So Ricky, you ready for our night out?" She asked.
"What are you talking about?" He asked,
"Oh nothing just that phone call you made in the middle of the night last night. You said you wanted to hang out today and spend some time together." She said.
"Adrienne stops it!" I yelled I was so angry.
"Oh sweetie don't blame me, blame your boyfriend. Just admit it Ricky, you can't get the same things from Amy as you do from me." She said.
Tears formed in my eyes. I ran downstairs and changed into Jeans and me t-shirt as fast as I could. I picked John up out of his crib and placed him into his car seat. I buckled him up as fast as I could. I'd come by tomorrow to get my things right now, I just needed to get out. I walked up the stairs holding the carrier.
"Amy where are you going?" He asked.
"Away, as far away as I can! So I never have to see her or you again!" I yelled.
"What about my son?" He yelled back.
"I'm taking him with me." I said.
"You can't do that! He's my son too! I'd miss having him around!" He yelled.
"You should have thought about that before calling her. I don't need anybody's help. I went through my pregnancy alone I can get through this alone." I said.
"Amy I didn't!" he yelled.
I walked out the door. Thank goodness I was only about five minutes away. I walked carrying John; about halfway there it started pouring rain.
"Of Course!" I screamed. "This had to happen! Why?" I yelled.
I ran to my mom's house and ran through the door. My mom was at the kitchen table. She saw me soaking wet and came running to me.
"Amy!" She said and hugged me.
"Mom," I said crying. "Mom Ricky… he called Adrienne."
"Sweetie I'm sorry." She said.
My mascara was running down my face, my hair was dripping all over the floor and my wet and dirty sneakers squeaked as I walked upstairs. I changed John into his pajamas and I tucked him into bed. I laid a blanket over him and turned the light off. I walked into the bathroom to take a hot shower. Once I was done I walked into my room to change. John started crying though, and I walked into his room. I changed his diaper and put him back to bed. I kissed him goodnight and I tucked him into bed. I went to bed.
