A/N: Sorry if I disappointed anyone but the last story wasn't working out. I'm glad to see someone liked it though! Oh yeah and I apologize for the kind wait for this chapter. I was in a school play and getting home at 8:00 everyday gave me 2 hours for homework and no time to write lol.


Holding Everything Together

Amy's POV

I was sitting at my desk and noticed Ricky walking out the elevator. I acted like I was working so it wouldn't seem awkward.

"Hey Amy" he greeted.

"Hi" I replied.

"Since we're going to be working in the same area, do you wanna talk things out to clear the air?" I could hear the nervousness in his voice. I haven't heard this tone ever since high school. It brought back memories from when I was giving birth to John. "Amy?" He said snapping me out of my daze.

"Oh, uhm yea I've been thinking about that. It seems like a fair idea. When?"

"Now?"

"Now?" I asked surprised.

"I'm pretty sure Ben would let us out. Lets go" he signaled to the elevator door. I got up uneasily and walked to the elevator. As the elevator moved it was quiet. There was a gap between us. We left out and went to a café a couple blocks down.

"So..." I said breaking the minute long silence.

"I know, this is awkward for both of us so to make it less awkward, how's the New York life?"

"New York is pretty good. A lot of people"

"I can see. How's life now?"

"It's nice"

"Just nice? Nothing else? What's been happening since you moved here?" He chuckled.

"Well I finished college, got married."

"Oh." I could see his face change. "So someone else has took my spot as John's father?"

"Ricky-"

"Excuse me." He got up and walked to the bathroom. I could tell he was angry. I didn't want to stop him before he got into the bathroom. I already knew that was a bad idea. I just sat there waiting.

Ricky's POV

I opened the bathroom door and grabbed my hairs wanting to rip them out. I didn't know I would be this angry finding out Amy is married. I was more angry at the fact that another guy took the life that I should've had. I punched my fist into the mirror breaking it. A guy who looked like the manager came in. He saw my bloody hand and put his hand out expecting me to pay for it. I got out some money from my wallet and gave it to him. He offered to wrap up my hand. I'm glad this guy was nicer than most store managers.

Amy's POV

I heard glass break from the back. Ricky came back with his hand wrapped up.

"Ricky what did you do?" I asked worried.

"Nothing just leave it. I'm going to go home." He just left out the door. I later decided to leave after paying for the lunch.

I stopped by at Lauren's house to hang out with her. I later found my myself talking about the Ricky situation.

"Did you think before telling him that you're married?" Lauren asked me.

"I thought he already moved on! I thought he already has some girl and moved on!" I told her defending myself.

"Did he tell you anything about his life?"

"No. He left after the whole bathroom scene. I didn't get to find out how his life turned out." I said disappointedly.

"Well if you wanna know, he's with Adrian and got her pregnant."

"What?" I turned my head to Lauren in disbelief.

"Amy it's Ricky. You should've known he was going to get someone pregnant. They're now full adults though so they probably planned it" Lauren explained to me. I didn't want to believe it. Adrian said this was going to happen. That one day she'll have a child with Ricky and they'd live happily ever after. That's when I was dating him. I have someone better now so I don't really care what they do. I just wish Ricky didn't do it intentionally.

I left Lauren's house and went home forgetting about work.

"You're here pretty early" Chase said as I walked through the door.

"Yeah I forgot about work. I need a break anyways"

"What happened?" He asked curious.

"Ricky is here. And I met up with him for lunch."

"Wait. Ricky is in New York. John's biological father?"

"Yes. Oh yeah at some point he'd want to see John."

"No he won't see John"

"Chase that's his father. He hasn't seen him for 6 years."

"I don't care. And I don't like how you had lunch with him"

"It's not like he murdered anyone and John is my son and I'm making his decisions. Plus I'm married and he has a baby on the way so if me getting back with Ricky is what you're worried about believe me it's never going to happen."

"As long as we're together, which is forever, he's my son too. And I just don't want him to hurt you in any way. I remember how emotionally stressed you were when you came here and I don't want a replay of that." He admitted. He gave me a small kiss. "Do what you think is right. Sorry I overreacted ."

"Thanks and its okay. You just love me so much."

"Yes I do" he gave me another kiss which grew more passionate.

"I have to go pick up John. It's 3 o'clock."

"You go do that." He let me go and I got my keys and walked out the door. I started to think if I should let John meet him now or when I get comfortable being around him most of my days. I got in my car and turned on the radio. I went into deep thought about my life if me and Ricky hadn't broke up. That thought disappeared quickly. I stopped at the red light and turned to see Adrian in the car next to me. I quickly turned my head the other direction. I wasn't expecting her to know we live in the same city again. I turned to see if she turned the other direction. When I looked we locked eyes and I saw an expression of rage and astonishment grow on her face. The light turned green and I sped off. I could already fill the drama coming.

Adrian's POV

I watched her car speed off as the light turned green. My face was still for a couple of seconds. The car behind me honked his horn waking me up. I pulled over by this store and got my phone out.

"Aargh" I growled as I dropped my phone on the floor of the passenger seat. I bent down struggling to get it. I quickly dialed Ricky's phone and impatiently waited for him to pick up.

"Hey Adrian, is anything wrong?" He asked.

"Amy Juergens is what's wrong" I said with anger.
