Chapter 11
Thanks for all the reviews! Much love to ya!
To answer some questions for you.
Will Omar just remain hostile to Ben or will he become physical?:
I haven't decided yet.
Are these actions showing his true personality?:
I have always felt Omar was overly controlling and jealous.
Why does he feel threatened by Ben?:
Because it is obvious to him that Ben and Adrian have a bond that could destroy his relationship with Adrian. Remember before the accident, Adrian even had a dream about Ben.
It is interesting that Grace has moved on. Will Jack do the same?:
Yes, I just need to figure out a good match. I had thought about Madison but she lives away now.
Will Ben fight for Adrian?:
We saw how he fought for Amy, he has now realized that Adrian is the love of his life and I don't think Ben is the type to give up on anything.
Please bring George & Kathleen back. The story needs a little variety:
I will try to bring in the parents more, it's just they are in college and moved out. I need to find a way to work them in.
Amy POV
The following day….
I toss and turn all night long, I keep dreaming about what took place in this very bed. Making love with Ricky last night was fiercer, so desirous and definitely more passionate. Sex with him has always been really good except for band camp but last night was so different. It was like wow, I don't think I've ever had him want me that bad and there was no way I was going to turn him down. I would have lost that war. I feel horrible and I don't know what to tell Jay, I hope he can forgive me. I get out of bed and take a hot shower. Ricky has to work today so he will be dropping off John in just a little bit.
After my shower I put my hair in a ponytail and apply some make-up. I put on some jeans and a black tank top. When I come out of my room, Grace is at the table. We both say at the same time, "I need to talk to you!"
We both laugh and say, "You first!"
I say, "You go."
She says, "I slept with Shane last night!"
I say, "You sound excited, so that must be a good thing."
She says, "Yes, it was a very good thing. What did you want to talk about?"
I say, "Last night, I was supposed to go out with Jay but I cancelled because Ricky stopped by to get something for John and ugghh I don't know what happened? One minute I was giving him John's Monkey and the next minute we are having sex! I don't know how to tell Jay or if I should just hide it?"
Grace mouth drops, "OMG, I'm not equipped to handle this. I will text Adrian to get on Skype, she will know what to do."
We get out Grace's laptop and get on Skype with Adrian. Grace explains what happened and ask "What should she do?"
Adrian is shocked as well then says, "I didn't think you had it in you to cheat on someone. Then again, I know how hard it is to turn down Ricky and you are madly in love with the guy."
I say, "Not helping, do I tell Jay? I feel so bad!"
Adrian says, "It depends, if you really want some kind of relationship with Jay, then you should be honest and tell him. If you just want to have fun but don't want a relationship to last with him, then I wouldn't tell him."
I say, "What if I don't know what I want with Jay, I like him so much and there is so many good things about him but.."
Adrian says, "But he will never be Ricky."
I say, "Exactly."
Adrian says, "I know how you feel."
I say, "You still have feelings for Ricky?"
Adrian laughs and says, "No, for Ben."
I say, "Oh I see."
Grace says, "I had sex with Shane last night!"
Adrian laughs and says, "So everyone had sex last night except me."
Grace says, "What I had with Jack was cute puppy love, I'm feeling like Shane is going to be my big love!"
Adrian says, "So Ricky was my puppy love, Ben is my big love and Omar is ummm my second big love?"
Grace says, "Only one big love!"
Adrian says, "I guess mine is still being written then."
Amy says, "Ben was my puppy love, Ricky was my big love, and Jay is my rebound."
We all start laughing, and Adrian says, "At least you are being honest."
I say, "In all fairness you can fall in love with your rebound right?"
Adrian says, "It looks like I did with Omar. I'm not feeling it right now but I'm sure I was at one point or I wouldn't have agreed to marry him."
Adrian says, "I'm going to go for a walk with my mom, I will talk to you guys later. Love ya!"
We both say for her to be careful and we love her. Then there is knock on the door and Grace says, "I'll get it." Ricky and John come in and I say, "Hey buddy!"
John says, "Hey Mommy!"
John looks like he is still sleepy, he lays down on the couch to fall back asleep
I look at Ricky and he has this smirk on his face and I want to laugh so badly but I don't.
Ricky seductively says, "How are you feeling this morning?"
I reply, "I'm good, just tired how about you?"
He says, "I'm feeling really good."
I get a phone call and it's my Mom.
I say, "I have to get this."
I answer, "Hello."
My mom says, "Hey Amy, I was just letting you know that Ashley completed her cooking class in Italy and she did very well. I'm about to pick her up at the airport, she is going to be here the weekend so you should come see her."
I say, "That's awesome! I will call to congratulate her. "
My mom says, "That would be nice, make sure you come to visit her."
I say, "Okay Mom, I'm going to call her."
Once I hang up Ricky says, "I'm gonna head to work. Let me know if you need anything."
I say, "Thanks Ricky."
I call my sister and she answers, "Hello."
I say, "Congrats! I'm proud of you."
She says, "Thanks."
I say, "I've missed you, why don't you move back home now?"
She says, "I don't know because we can't stand each other."
I say, "Ashley, I'm your big sister and I love you."
She says, "If you loved me you would have stuck up for me when Ricky used me, he took advantage of my feelings for him just to get you jealous."
I say, "You are right, I handled that all wrong. I should have been honest about my feelings for Ricky from the start and you may have never developed feelings for him. I had a lot of built of anger and jealousy. I would take it out on everyone. I should have been upset with him for doing that too. Please forgive me; I want us to be close again. You have been there for me at my darkest times. I want to be here for you too."
She says, "I forgive you Amy, I'm sorry for all the mean things I have said to you too."
I say, "Then you should move back home, we all miss you."
She says, "Okay, I will enroll in another cooking school back here."
I ask, "You should move in with Grace and me?"
She says, "Amy you need to get your man back. You both should be living together with my nephew."
I say, "I'm going out with someone else right now."
She says, "Wow that's unexpected. I can go back and forth staying with everyone."
I say, "Yay, I'm excited to get my baby sister back."
She says, "I'm excited too, but don't get too dorky on me."
I say, "It's me Ash. I don't think I'll ever outgrow my dorky-ness."
She laughs and says, "That is true, I will talk to you later I have to get my luggage"
I say, "Okay be careful and love you Ash!"
She says, "You too Amy."
Adrian POV
Memories are randomly coming back to me, when I woke up this morning I was remembering when Omar proposed to me. It was very sweet, but nothing compares to when Ben proposed. I'm getting my memories back but I still don't understand why I felt that way. I feel like it was all a lie, I was hiding my true feeling deep inside. I remember that I loved Omar but it's not that same kind of love like Grace had mentioned "my big love." I feel so bad for feeling this way; I don't want to hurt anyone.
After talking with Amy and Grace, I take a walk in the park with my Mom.
A little later after our walk and getting back home and showering.
Omar comes home around lunch time and says, "I took the rest of the day off, where would my lady like to go?"
I say, "Would you want to go to the Empire State Building?"
He says, "I would love too!"
He kisses my forehead and says, "I'm ready whenever you are."
I say, "Just give me some time to change my outfit and apply some lip gloss."
He says, "Do your thing babe."
We go and we have an amazing time looking at all the huge buildings around. He gives me a passionate kiss and for the first time since my accident I'm getting some of the feelings that would make sense on why I would agree to marry him.
After our kiss he says, "That's my girl."
He then says, "I got a huge bonus at work and I noticed you haven't been wearing your engagement ring and that's okay I understand. I wanted to get you this though."
He gets down on one knee with tears in his eyes; he pulls out a box with a beautiful square 2 carat diamond ring. "Adrian, I would do anything for you. I will love and adore you for the rest of my life. Please be my wife?"
I'm shocked and I don't know what to say. I'm not ready to make a decision on what I want but I know if I don't say yes he will give up on me and I might regret that.
I start to tear up and say, "Yes."
He puts the ring on my finger and picks me up and spins us around in excitement.
We both start to laugh.
He says, "Are you hungry?"
I say, "Yes, I'm real hungry."
Jack POV
Madison is away for school at Berkley so there is no chance for us, I always thought Grace and I would end up together but it never seems to work. I guess what is meant to be will be, I decide I'm single and I'm going to live it up. There is a party I got invited to tonight, I just need a wing man. I think well Ricky is single and probably wanting to get back out there, I decide to stop by his apartment about 30 minutes before the party is about to start to see if he is down to go to the party with me tonight.
He opens the door and says, "Come in."
I say, "Get ready man, there is this party I got invited to. We should go."
Ricky says, "Parties aren't my thing man."
I say, "You are single, I'm single. Amy has moved on and you should too."
Ricky says, "It's not just that, I don't like drinking and all that."
I say, "You don't have to drink."
Ricky says, "Then what would be the point of going."
I say, "You need to loosen up and have fun."
Ricky says, "I'm a father, I have to be responsible."
I say, "Bro, you can have fun and be a responsible father."
Ricky says, "Are you going to give up?"
I say, "Come on, you can go and if you aren't having a good time we can leave."
Ricky says, "Fine but don't nag me if I want to leave."
I say, "Fine."
He says, "Okay, I'm gonna get ready."
Should Amy hide her hook up with Ricky from Jay? Who should we hook Jack up with? Ashley, Sarah (Amy's Work friend played by Ashley Benson), Kayla (Amy's Work friend played by Kylie Bunbury) Or Clementine.
