Amy's POV

I woke up at 6:00 in the morning, three months passed. Nothing big had happened, we started potty training John. I was getting huge, seven months pregnant. I walked down the stairs and found breakfast already made; a note was on the table.

Had to work the morning shift. Sorry Ames, good news though, I'll be back at twelve. And Bonnie has a surprise for me so I hope it'll be good. I Love You So much

-Ricky

I smiled and ate breakfast John should wake up in an hour so I ate breakfast by myself. Once I finished I cleared the table and went to wake John up.

"John sweetie, we have to get up. We're going to the beach with Timothy, Adrienne's son." I told him.

Adrienne had a son; believe it or not, Michael had a son who was the same age as John. So when Adrienne and Michael got married she had a step-son. So John got changed into his bathing suit and I changed into a beach dress. I put John into his car seat and drove to the beach. John and I walked hand in hand to the beach form the parking lot. He ran once he saw Timothy. Adrienne saw me she smiled and waved. The boys immediately started making sand castles. I sat down on the blanket with her while we kept an eye on the boys.

"So How are you and Michael?" I asked.

"Good, but he works Monday through Thursday and he doesn't get home until ten o'clock. So we don't see him until the days he doesn't work." She said

"Oh. So are you enjoying parenthood?" I asked.

"Yeah, I just feel like since I'm his stepmother and not his real mother there's like a limit to our friendship." She said sadly.

"Adrienne you can break that limit, and Timothy loves you very much, don't think that just because you're his stepmother makes you unlovable." I said.

"I know, anyway are you excited about your second baby?" She asked me.

"Yeah I am, I can't wait." I said.

"Amy I need advice." Adrienne said.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Well there's something I need to tell Michael, but I don't know how." She said.

"What is it?" I asked.

"This is going to sound pathetic, I'm 21 and I can't tell my own husband that….. I'm pregnant." She said.

"Why are you so nervous?" I asked her. "Oh and congrats!"

"Well I don't know if he wants another baby. Or if he will be happy." She said.

"Of course he'll be happy. And if he doesn't…. too bad. Adrienne you are a great mom, and Michael knows that. If he didn't he wouldn't marry you because he knew that he had a son who needs love." I said.

"Thanks Amy." She said and hugged me.

"How'd you tell Ricky?" She asked me.

"I just told him I had a surprise, I was really nervous but I kind of blurted it out. He was really happy though." I said.

Adrienne's phone rang.

"Hold on Amy, Hello?" She asked answering the phone. "Hey, yeah I'm at the beach. With Amy and John. John and Timothy are playing. Sandcastles. You are? That's fantastic. Alright I'll see you in a few, bye." She said and hung up.

"Michael got off early today. His boss said that he works too much and that he needs a break. He's coming to the beach. You should invite Ricky." She said.

"That's great, I think I will." I said and dialed his number.

"I'm on my way home, what's up?" He said answering his phone.

"Hey uh we're at the beach. Adrienne and Michael are here, grab your bathing suit and come over." I said.

"I don't know…" He said.

"You could teach John how to swim." I said trying to persuade him.

"Alright, but he can swim… just not all the time. He's getting much better." He said.

"Alright." I said laughing. "Bye."

I hung up and told Adrienne that he was coming. John started heading into the water.

"John no, not yet. Wait for daddy." I said.

"But you're here." He said.

"Mommy isn't going in the water in her clothes; daddy will be here any minute." I said.

He walked back to timothy who was building more sandcastles.

"I bet if we let them, the whole beach would be a giant sandcastle. "She said laughing.

"You're probably right." I said laughing.

Both guys showed up at the same time. Adrienne pulled Michael aside, she was telling him. I was so proud of her. He smiled and picked her up and spun her around. He kissed her once he put her down.

"What's all of the good news?" Ricky asked me.

"Adrienne's pregnant." I said.

"Congrats Adrienne." Ricky said.

"Thanks." She said smiling.

Ricky wrapped his arms around me and placed his hands on my stomach. Timothy and John walked into the water.

"Ricky would you go make sure that John's okay? I hate having him swim in the water." I said.

"It's a beach Amy." He said laughing and got up.

"I don't want anything happening." I said as he started walking.

"Yeah Michael would you go with Ricky?" She said.

"Sure, I love you." He said and kissed her. He walked away.

"I told him and he's so happy! Amy you were right." She said smiling.

"I told you everything would work out. Don't worry next time." I said laughing.

"If I decide to have another baby." She said.

"I bet you will, when you hold your little baby in your arms for the first time. It's all worth the pain and waiting. And when the baby outgrows his or her crib, and stops wearing diapers you'll miss it." I said.

I thought about what I said it would be worth it, I just couldn't wait. Ricky and John walked over. So did Michael and Timothy. All of us sat down and talked, pretty soon John and Timothy ran off to go collect seashells and just we adults talked. It was nice, a perfect night.
