A/N- I'm really glad you guys liked the last chapter. I would have posted this sooner but I was busy all weekend. This chapter is going to be written in two parts, because I didn't want to write the whole date in one . So I hope you guys enjoy the first part, and keep a look out for the second! I will probably upload it in a couple of days.
I looked at myself in the mirror. No shirts seemed to fit me anymore, so I decided on a white starpless silk dress. Since it was so nice out, and I had nowhere else to wear it. I had no idea where Ricky was taking me so I had to pick out something neutral. I did a little spin, I looked like a beach wale! I sighed smoothing the front of my dress, getting rid of invisible wrinkles. I was nervous, very nervous! My stomach felt a little queasy and I thought I was going to be reacquainted with my lunch. I heard a knock at my bedroom door. I had yet to tell my family I was going out so I knew my mom had come to tell me dinner was ready.
"Well I was going to tell you dinner was done but it looks like you wont be joining us." Ashley said from behind me. I turned around to look at her. "So where is Ben taking you?" I froze.
"Ummm nowhere." I said turning back to the mirror smoothing out more invisible wrinkles. She looked at me curiously.
"Then where exactly are you going, Amy?" She asked. I coughed as my eyes darted back and forth across the room.
"I don't know exactly." I replied. I was being honest of course, I didn't know where Ricky was taking me. She eyed me suspiciously.
"How can you not know where you are going?" She asked keeping her eyes on me. I sighed, was she always this nosey?
"I'm going out with Ricky." I said. Waiting for her to start yelling at me. Ashley wasn't exactly fond of Ricky. That's why she found Ben after he told me he needed space and demanded he come talk to me.
"Why?" She asked. "I thought you hated him? What about Ben, does he know you and Ricky are going out on a date?" She threw the questions at me quickly. I gulped.
"I don't hate Ricky, Ashley. I was angry about the whole situation, being pregnant at 15 but i've gotten past that and i'm actually happy." I said smiling a little. It was true, I was angry at Ricky for getting me pregnant but I loved my son so much that I had learned to live with it, and move on. I can't erase the past, and honestly I didn't want to. I realized that if that night at band camp never would have happened, I wouldn't have this beautiful life living inside me.
"Yeah okay, whatever." She said quickly. "But you know you got to tell mom and dad that your dating Ricky. Good luck with that!" She said leaving before I could tell her that I was in fact not dating Ricky. I sighed before looking in the mirror one more time and went to the kitchen, where my parents were as usual fighting.
"I can see other people if I want to and you can too. We are getting a divorce for a reason! We weren't making each other happy." My mother said annoyed by whatever my father had said. I sighed irritated.
"Could you two stop fighting for 5 seconds!" I yelled at them. Ashley passed a quiet thank you my way, and my parents looked at me. I took a deep breath, looking at my parents as they took in my appearance.
"Who are you all dressed up for?" My dad asked jokingly thinking he already knew who I was dressed up for. I took a shaky breath.
"Umm...." I couldn't bring myself to say Ricky, I knew how my father felt about him. I saw Ashley out of the corner of my eye with a smirk, knowing how this conversation was going to end.
Before I had the chance to finish Ashley decided to tell them that I was going out with Ricky.
"What?" My dad yelled. The vein in his forehead popping out, it looked like it was going to explode.
"Dad, he's trying to bond with our son." I said getting angry. He should be happy Ricky's not just going to abandon his son, like some other guys would.
"Bond my ass!" My dad yelled. "How can he 'bond' with the baby when he's not even out yet?? Is he going to talk to your stomach the whole time?" He asked. I rolled my eyes, he's was acting like I told him we were eloping!
"Dad, I really don't have time for this. Ricky is going to be here any minute." As soon as I said that I heard Rickys car pull in the driveway. I went to go get the door but my dad was already there.
"You better just turn back around and go home Ricky, she's not going out with you." My dad yelled at him as Ricky got out of his car. I let out a frustrated sigh, my dad was acting like child!
"Ricky don't listen to him." I said, trying to push past my dad who was now blocking the door. I rolled my eyes irritated.
"Mom would you please tell him to let me go?" I pleaded. My mom sighed but told my dad to move so I could leave.
"No! Anne how can you let her go out with the guy that got her pregnant??" I slammed the door behind me as my parents started fighting again.
"Sorry about that". I told Ricky as he started opening the car door for me. He smiled.
"Thats ok, you look amazing!" He said, looking me up and down. I coughed, feeling even more nervous as Ricky helped me into the car.
"Thanks, so do you." I said finally looking at him enough to see what he was wearing. He had on a nice black polo and a pair of dark blue jeans on, his hair in its usual disarray. "I am soo over dressed." I said fidgiting. He gently grabbed my hand.
"Stop fidgiting! You are perfect."He said smiling at me, his blue eyes sparkiling. I had trouble breathing when he looked at me like that. It was times like these that I wandered why he was here with me. He could have any girl he wanted and yet here he was taking me out. He never took anyone out on a date! So, I knew this was a big deal.
"Where are we going anyway?" I asked couriusly.
"Well, I was thinking we'd go see a movie and then go get dinner." He said, looking at me seeing if I would object to this evenings plans.
"Oh, okay. Why where you keeping that a secret?" I asked. He laughed.
"I wasn't keeping it a secret per say. I just didn't tell you." He said.
"Okay well then what movie are we going to go see?" I asked.
"Whatever you pick." He said, smiling at me. He wanted me to pick? I wasn't expecting that. "You look suprised." He stated.
"I am." I replied honestly. He laughed at me again.
"Why?" He asked, clearly amused.
"I thought you would have already picked out a movie you wanted to see." He looked at me suprised.
"I wasn't going to pick the movie, I'm not that mean" He said jokingly. "Was there anything you wanted to see?" He asked. I thought about it for a second, there was a few movies out I wanted to see.
"The Uninvited." I said. I had asked Ben if he wanted to see it a while ago, but he had declined saying he didn't like horror movies.
"You do know thats a horror movie?"He asked, obviously waiting to see if I would back out. I laughed.
"I know. What you don't think I can handle a scary movie?" I asked amused. He laughed.
"No." He said shaking his head. "I just thought you'd pick a girly movie, like He's Just Not That Into You." He said smiling.
"I do want to see that movie." I admitted. "What wrong with girly movies?" I said, trying to look mad.
"Nothing." He chuckled. "Are you suppose to look angry?" He asked amused. Darn it, it didn't work.
"I was suppose to." I said smiling. The car came to a stop in one of the parking spaces at the theater. How did we get here so fast? Ricky got out of the car and opened my door for me, holding out his hand. I smiled and took it. I could already tell this was going to be a good night.
Okay so there was Part 1 of the date. Part 2 should be up within the next couple of days, I'm hoping to be done writing it by Friday and have it uploaded that night. So keep an eye out for that. I hope you guys are enjoying the story so far. Keep sending in reviews, I love reading them! R&R!
