Thank you for your comments, I hope this chapter lives up to the expectations. This is my first story, but I got good comments back and decided to write a new chapter. I don't want Amy to dump Ben and be with Ricky in like one chapter so I decided to stretch it out. 3

Chapter 3

What Have I done

Amy's POV

Amy had went upstairs to put John back in his crib after feeding him a bottle of formula, (still sore from earlier) when she saw that she had 2 missed calls and 3 missed text messages. All but one text was from Ben the other was from Ricky. She just deleted the ones from Ben because she already knew what they said, "Why was Ricky at your house," or "I love you." And she didn't feel like dealing with that right now.

Instead she looked at Ricky's it said, "Are you okay, sorry I left without telling you." Aw how kind is he she thought. She didn't want to seem eager so she just sent him a text saying, " It's alright, I understand that you didn't want to wake me up." He had become a lot nicer and more considerate of her feelings while she was pregnant and she didn't want him to stop just because Amy had already given birth.

Ricky's POV

He was sitting in his room at his foster parent's house when he got "1 new text". It was from Amy, "It's alright, I understand that you didn't want to wake me up." He couldn't help it he knew know that he was really in love with Amy, she gave birth to his son, and he still loved her. He hated it every time Ben would come over or they would kiss. Ricky couldn't stand it but he had to, if he ever wanted to be with Amy, yet something inside him said go for it. He picked up the phone and searched for Amy under contacts, called her and it was ringing.

"Hello," Amy answered.

"Hi Amy, It's Ricky I wanted to call and see if you where okay or if you needed anything."

"No I'm fine, but my mom is going over to my dad's house later and help Ashley move some of her stuff in."

"Oh so you will be by yourself." Ricky grinned as if knowing she was going to be alone.

"Yeah, it will only be for a little while though."

"Well I was wondering if you and me would like to take John to the park or something tonight?" Ricky questioned, his eyes glimmering.

"I guess we could but I don't know if he will be up for it." Amy said, hoping not to sound too willing.

"How about I come over and we can see how it goes with John." Ricky asked positive that the answer would be yes.

"Okay, come over around 6:00." She quickly responded then hung up. Ricky sprinted off the couch where he had sat talking to Amy and hurried up taking a shower. Then he changed clothes in record breaking time, putting on his famous layered shirts.

Amy's POV

Had she really just invited Ricky over to her house tonight, "No it's only to take care of the baby, but wait what if he thinks it's a date, oh no what have I done. I love Ben, I DO, but I love Ricky too, but maybe just in the way that he's the father of our son, did I just say OUR!" Amy kept rambling on and on, not even taking any breaths in between. Just then she heard the doorbell ring.

"Okay, stay calm Amy, stay calm." She said to herself. She opened the door and there was Ricky, he looked so hot with his gelled hair and layered shirts, no Amy no, you're not thinking about this, just stay calm.

"Hey Ricky," she greeted him, "come in." He walked into the living room and sat on the couch. Amy sat next to him and put on foot under her body to position herself facing Ricky.

"So how's John?" He asked, God he looked sexy, no shake it off Amy you're not falling for him again.

"He's fine, right now he's sleeping, he'll probably be awake in a little bit if you still want to take him out."

"Okay, well I really wanted to come over here to talk to you about Ben," Amy bit her lip, oh no, he does like me, please don't say it.

"What about him?" She asked.

"I don't think that he should be considering himself as the father, I want to raise my son with him knowing that I'm his only father." There it was I was mesmerized by his deep chocolate brown eyes the same ones that John has.

"I couldn't agree more." Amy muttered. Ricky was now gazing deep into Amy's eyes as he did when they were in band camp.

Ricky's POV

She had agreed with him, she actually wanted me to be the father not Ben. I knew this day would come. He leaned in slowly and gently kissed Amy on the lips, and then John started to cry.

"I'll get him." Ricky got up and walked back to here room where John was now screaming uncontrollably. Ricky laughed, he always knew when his mom and dad where close. Ricky picked him up and cradled him to sleep as he hummed a song that he had wrote when he was in band camp. John started to settle down and Ricky gently laid him down in his crib while he stood over him still humming until he went back to sleep.

Amy's POV

OMG! I can't believe that we just kissed! How can I possibly cheat on Ben?! She thought to herself. Amy bit her lip thinking about what she was going to do, was he moving to fast, was it just a friendly kiss, or should you just tell him goodbye and make him leave. Oh no, here he comes. Ricky walked into the living room and sat on the couch with a smirk on his face.

"Ricky," "Amy," they both said at the same time, Amy blushed a little.

"I think you should go, my mom will be here soon and she doesn't know that you came over." Amy said as she bushed her hair back with her hand.

"Are you sure you'll be okay until your mom gets here, do you want me to stay a little longer? She wouldn't mind, I mean she knows that I'll be coming over her regularly to help with the baby doesn't she?" Ricky asked, looking disappointed.

"No I think you should go, but I'll call you if I need anything." She hesitantly stuttered.

"Okay well I'll talk to you later." Ricky said. He got up and Amy got up to walk him out. Ricky tucked his hands in his pockets.

"Bye Amy," Ricky said and he moved as to try and kiss her but he pulled back. Amy didn't know what to do so she just stood there. He saw that she was nervous and walked out to his car. Amy closed the door and stood back to back against it. What has she done, she thought.
