"Really?! You don't know what my problem is? Adrian told me about your little whipped cream incident with Grace...I can't believe you! What if John had walked in on you two?" Amy said angrily.
"Um...I'm sorry Amy...It was my idea...And John was fast asleep when we did it..." Grace said awkwardly.
"So? He could have woke up from a bad dream or something...Did you even lock the door?" Amy said sternly.
"Geeze, Amy! What's the big deal? We fooled around before when John was asleep...We even had sex...And of course we locked the door." Ricky said firmly.
"Uh...We have too...It's really not that big of a deal..." Ben said sadly.
"Not that big of a deal?! John is too young to be exposed to that kind of stuff! I'm his mother and I don't know if I want you to watch him ever again if you're going to be doing that crap with Grace." Amy said meanly as she looked at Ricky.
"I could say the same thing about you and Ben...If the door is locked, then we have nothing to worry about...Wait...you're not jealous that we never did anything with whipped cream...are you?" Ricky said seriously.
"Eww! Of course not! That sounds disgusting...And...I'm sorry for yelling at you Ricky...It's just...been a hard day..." Amy said honestly.
"I know it has Amy...I'm sorry too...And I promise that I will not do anything inappropriate in front of John...I thought you trusted me." Ricky said kindly.
"I do trust you...And...I'm sorry too Grace..." Amy said sweetly as she wiped her eyes.
"I forgive you, Amy...I know I wasn't always in the nicest mood after I lost my Dad..." Grace said nicely.
"Is everything all right over here?" Chloe said concerned as she walked over to their table.
"Yeah...Amy just got a little upset...How was your lunch?" Ben said smiling.
"All right...It was really good...And Leo said that we're leaving for the airport in about twenty minutes." Chloe said sweetly.
"Ok...Thanks Chloe...We're almost done eating..." Ben said kindly.
"No problem...And I'm truly sorry for your loss Amy..." Chloe said honestly.
"Thanks Chloe...I'm glad you came..." Amy said sweetly.
"So...I overheard Jack say that Grace was on ecstasy last night..." Chloe said awkwardly.
"Ugh...Why didn't he just tell the entire town? It was a complete accident...A weird guy gave me a drink and I shouldn't have drank it..." Grace said annoyed.
"Yeah...I'm sorry about that...At least you're ok..." Chloe said nicely.
"Hey Chloe..." Kathy said sweetly from behind her.
"Oh...Hey Kathy...I forgot that you were here..." Chloe said awkwardly.
"Yeah...I'm sorry Amy and Ethan and I have to get going...I hope you and Ben have a safe flight back..." Kathy said kindly and she gave Amy a hug.
"Thank you Kathy...I'll see you soon...And good luck with Ethan..." Amy said sweetly as she let go of Kathy.
"You're welcome...See ya..." Kathy said nicely and she walked away from the table with Chloe.
"So...Do you forgive me?" Chloe said concerned.
"For sleeping with Chase? I do...And I don't care about him anymore...He was obviously a waste of time...I want to be friends with you Chloe..." Kathy said seriously.
"Thanks Kathy...I want to stay friends with you too...And I'm happy for you and Ethan...He's a really great guy." Chloe said sweetly.
"You're welcome...Ethan is a great guy...I think he's still in the bathroom so I need to find him..." Kathy smiled and she walked towards the bathroom.
Chloe walked back to her table and she saw Leo and Camille getting out of their seats.
"It's about time to go...Did you tell Ben and Amy?" Leo said smiling.
"Yes...Um...Can I get coffee with a friend tomorrow?" Chloe said seriously.
"Of course...Who is it?" Leo asked intrigued.
"Uh...An old friend from high school...Let's go." Chloe said nicely and they walked by everyone outside of the restaurant.
"Well...We're off to the airport..." Leo said happily.
"I hope you guys have a safe flight back...Omar and I are going back tomorrow." Adrian said kindly and she gave Ben and Amy a hug.
"Be careful...We'll see you guys soon..." Grace said sweetly as she gave Amy and Ben a hug.
"See you guys later...And you too John...Daddy will see you soon." Ricky said smiling as he gave John a hug.
"Bye bye Daddy! I love you!" John said happily and he walked over by Amy.
Anne, George, and Ashley gave Amy a hug.
"I love you everyone...Thanks for today...It meant a lot..." Amy said sincerely as she wiped her teary eyes.
"Of course Ames...We love you too..." George said nicely.
Amy smiled as she got in Leo's limo with Ben.
"There she goes...I wish she could stay longer..." Anne said sadly.
"Me too...But she'll be back soon..." George said kindly.
"Yeah...We need to get going so we'll see you later Anne..." Kathleen said sweetly.
"All right...Thanks for coming Kathleen..." Anne said smiling.
"Hold on...I need to ask Grace something..." George said concerned as he walked over to Grace and Ricky in the parking lot.
"Stop right there you two!" George said loudly as she walked over to Grace and Ricky by Ricky's car.
"Uh...Is there a problem George?" Ricky said confused.
"I asked Ben and Amy to find out what happened to Grace...Did you do ecstasy?" George said seriously as he looked at Ricky and then Grace.
"Not on purpose...This guy we met at the party last night gave me a drink with it in it..." Grace said honestly.
"Really? Are you sure that Ricky didn't do it?" George said sternly.
"Are you crazy? I would never do something like that. I've never bought drugs and I love Grace...This guy named Cappie gave her the drink..." Ricky said firmly.
"And who is this Cappie guy?" George said suspiciously.
"He's Grant's cousin...He seemed nice at first and...he left after he gave me the drink..." Grace said honestly.
"Oh...Well...I need to have a talk with him...I'm just glad you're all right..." George said seriously.
"Thanks George...We'll see you later..." Grace said sweetly and she got in Ricky's car with him.
"What was that about?" Kathleen said worried as she walked over to George.
"Grace was on ecstasy last night at a party...but...apparently Ricky didn't give her it...Some guy named Cappie did..." George said calmly.
"What is ecstasy?" Kathleen asked confused.
"It's a drug...I don't know much about it but Grace seems ok...She said Cappie is Grant's cousin...We should probably give him a call..." George said firmly.
"Grace was on a drug? I can't believe this...We probably should call Grant...I have his number..." Kathleen said seriously.
Meanwhile at the airport...
Amy and Ben said bye to Leo, Camille, and Chloe and they got on the plane.
"Thanks for putting up with me today Ben...I know I was a little...snappy..." Amy said kindly as she sat down next to him with John.
"Heh...It's ok Amy...I'll always put up with you...But...are you sure that you weren't jealous of the whipped cream thing that Ricky did with Grace? We could try it...If you want..." Ben said honestly.
"Of course not...The only things I want to lick whipped cream off of are deserts...I don't know what those two were thinking when they did that..." Amy said seriously.
"Uh...What if we licked...chocolate syrup off of each other? We might like it..." Ben said awkwardly.
"Heh...Well...I do really like chocolate...But...it sounds really messy..." Amy said concerned.
"Yeah...but...we could...try it in the shower..." Ben said seductively as he looked deeply into Amy's eyes.
"Ha ha...You sure know how to get me in the mood Mr. Sausage Prince..." Amy said sweetly as she smiled.
"Mmm...So you want to try it?" Ben said intrigued. Amy leaned in close to Ben and gave him a long kiss.
"Does that answer your question?" Amy said quietly and she smirked.
"Yeah...Heh...I love you..." Ben said happily.
"I love you too..." Amy said kindly and she laid her head on Ben's shoulder as the plane started to lift off the ground.
Meanwhile at Ricky's apartment...
"So I have to work until closing again...You can cook whatever you want for dinner..." Ricky said as he changed clothes.
"I know...Ugh...I can't believe Jack told everyone about what happened last night..." Grace said annoyed.
"It's really not that big of a deal...You didn't get hurt..." Ricky said honestly.
"It's not that big of a deal? You could have easily taken advantage of me or...some other guy could have if you weren't there..." Grace said worried.
"I already said that I would never do that...And I won't let any other guy do that either." Ricky said seriously.
"Thanks Ricky...I really appreciate you taking care of me last night...And I invited Adrian and Omar over for dinner since they're going back to New York tomorrow..." Grace said sweetly.
"It was my pleasure...Heh...Maybe you should order Chinese or something..." Ricky said happily.
"Heh...Are you insulting my cooking?" Grace said as she laughed.
"No...It's just...I don't know if you could make a good meal for the four of us..." Ricky said smiling.
"Fine...I'll order Chinese...Heh...You're so funny..." Grace said nicely as she rolled her eyes.
"I know...I love you..." Ricky said kindly as he pulled Grace close to him.
"I love you too...Have fun at work..." Grace said sweetly as she put her hands on Ricky's neck.
"I wish I didn't have to go...Maybe I should tell Bunny I have a cold...So we could do some of this..." Ricky smirked and he gave Grace a long kiss.
"Mmm...Heh...I thought you needed to make more money...for us...remember?" Grace said concerned as she pulled away from Ricky.
"Oh...I have plenty of money...Heh...I'm sure she'll understand..." Ricky said seriously.
"Well...If you insist..." Grace said kindly.
"I'll be right back..." Ricky said smiling and he walked out the door.
"Oh no...I can't believe Ricky actually wants to skip work to spend time with me? What should I do?" Grace said to herself worried and then she picked up her phone from the kitchen table and called Jack.
"Hey Grace! How are you?" Jack said nicely.
"I did call you to yell at you for telling everyone about what happened to me last night...But...it doesn't really matter...So...Ricky is going to skip work to spend more time with me...He's never done that before...We spent all day together and..." Grace said nervously.
"And you need some time to yourself? I totally get that...Why would you not want to spend every waking hour of your day with the guy who loves you? Heh...But...you two didn't spend the day alone together..." Jack said seriously and then sarcastically.
"Uh...Well yeah...I kind of needed some time to...uh...pray for Amy and her family and to read...since Ricky is getting baptized soon and...I wanted some um...just say me time...Heh..." Grace said awkwardly.
"Woah! Slow down Grace! That is way too much information! I'm glad that Ricky is getting baptized but...you didn't need to tell me that...But uh...if you were with me then you wouldn't have to do that..." Jack said shocked and then honestly.
"Ugh...But that's all you wanted...I don't love you like that anymore, Jack...And I'm sorry...You told me about times when you...you know...had Jack time before..." Grace said annoyed and then awkwardly.
"I know...Heh...I was just joking...And I didn't tell you much about my...uh...We shouldn't be talking about this..." Jack said seriously.
"Oh...Sure you were just joking...Ha ha...You're not that funny...Sorry for bringing it up...But...um...I'm sure whatever Ricky and I do before Omar and Adrian come over will be fine..." Grace said a little irritated and then nicely.
"Yeah...You two sure can't keep your hands off of each other...Heh...Talk to you later, Grace...I'm going to a club later with some friends..." Jack said as he laughed.
"Oh, geeze...Is it really that bad? We didn't kiss that much at the restaurant...Did we? And please be careful..." Grace said concerned.
"Uh...Let's just say that I heard Amy say that she called yours and Ricky's kissing disgusting...And I will be careful." Jack said honestly.
"Really? I thought she was happy for us..." Grace said surprised.
"She probably didn't mean it...I gotta go...Bye..." Jack said nicely and he hung up.
A few minutes later Ricky walked in the apartment.
"So...Bunny said I could have the night off since I've been working really hard for the last month." Ricky said happily.
"Oh...That's great..." Grace said sadly.
"Is...there something wrong? Did you order the Chinese?" Ricky asked intrigued.
"Um...I'm fine...It's just been a hard day...Being at a funeral at church again..." Grace said sincerely as her eyes got watery.
"I know...The last funeral we went to was...your dad's...That was one of the most depressing days of my life...I really thought that you weren't going to get out of that car..." Ricky said seriously as he sat down next to Grace at the kitchen table.
"Really? You were really determined to get me out of it...And...I couldn't have done it without you..." Grace said honestly.
"Heh...I was...It was the least I could do for your father after...cheating on you..." Ricky said sincerely.
"Don't worry about it...It happened a long time ago...I just hope that...my Dad would be proud of me if he was still alive..." Grace said sadly.
"I think he would...You've come a really long way, Grace...He loved you no matter what...And I do too..." Ricky said nicely and he hugged Grace.
"You're right...I love you no matter what too, Ricky...Do you want to make something?" Grace said sweetly as she let go of Ricky.
"Not really...I'm pretty tired..." Ricky said as he wiped his eyes.
"Uh...I thought you wanted to...Make out some..." Grace said in a disappointed tone.
"Heh...Yeah but...I was hoping we could...do that where it's more comfortable...I'll order the Chinese later..." Ricky smirked and he took off his shirt.
"Um...Ok...If you keep that up, then we might have to get married soon..." Grace said as her eyes widened while she looked at Ricky's muscular chest and abdomen.
"Ha ha...We'll see..." Ricky laughed and he picked up Grace and carried her to the bedroom.
A couple hours later Grace and Ricky were asleep after making out and there was a knock on the door.
"Ugh...What was that?" Ricky said sleepily as he got out of bed and walked to the door.
"Why..Hello Ricky..." Adrian said surprised as she looked at his chest.
"Uh...Why don't you have a shirt on?" Omar asked confused.
"Huh? What...What are you two doing here?" Ricky said concerned after yawning.
"We're here for dinner...Are you ok?" Adrian asked sternly.
"Oh yeah...I just woke up...That party wore me out last night...Come on in...I'll put a shirt on and wake up Grace..." Ricky said seriously as he closed the door after Omar and Adrian walked in.
"Wow...This place hasn't changed a bit..." Adrian said nicely as she looked around the apartment.
"You guys can sit at the table...I'll be right back..." Ricky said kindly as he walked into his room.
"I can't believe he just woke up...I'm starving..." Omar said worried as he sat down with Adrian.
"We took a nap too...That party was tiring...I guess they lost track of time...Heh...He sure has gained some nice muscles..." Adrian said honestly and then she grinned.
"Uh...Yeah...You don't like my muscles?" Omar said concerned.
"Oh, don't be ridiculous Omar...I love your muscles...Heh..." Adrian said as she smiled.
"Wake up Grace...Adrian and Omar are here." Ricky said firmly as he put his shirt on.
"No...I don't want to get up..." Grace said sleepily as she stretched her arms.
"Heh...Come on sleepy head...It's dinner time..." Ricky said as he smiled and rubbed Grace's back.
"Ok...I'm up...What are we eating? We didn't get Chinese..." Grace said a little irritated as she sat up in bed.
"Don't worry...I'll just order pizza...It's usually quicker..." Ricky said smiling as they walked into the kitchen.
"Mmm...Pizza sounds great...Nice bed hair Grace..." Adrian said happily.
"Oh...Sorry about that...I should probably brush my hair..." Grace said embarrassed as she pushed her hair back.
"It looks fine to me...What kind of pizza do you guys want?" Ricky said kindly.
"Supreme and pepperoni sounds good to me." Omar said nicely.
"All right...I'll order it..." Ricky said as he pulled out his phone.
What's going to happen next? At least Amy settled down and apologized. Kathy and Chloe sound like they're getting along too. Who's Chloe going to have coffee with? What's George and Kathleen going to talk to Grant about? Will Ben and Amy try licking chocolate syrup off of each other? Is Grace going to talk to Amy about being disgusted by her and Ricky kissing? Should Grace have told Jack about what she wanted to do while she was alone? Stay tuned to find out! Let me know what you think! Thank you! :)
