“Amy what are we doing today?” Chris asked as he ran his fingers through his black hair.
“Oh, I have so much stuff I have to do.” Amy said as she ran a brush through her damp brown hair.
“I want to go look for rings today.” Chris said wrapping his arms around Amy’s waist causing her to flinch. Although she did accept his apology for what he pulled she was still upset and she also thought it would be proper if Tiffany said ‘I’m sorry too’.
“Well I’m going over to Justin and Tiffany’s for a little while.” Amy said.
“Oh.” Chris was a little disappointed. Since the incident with Tiffany occurred, Amy has been extremely distant.
“We’ll do dinner tonight, okay?” Chris said.
“Fine.” Amy said.
She finished spreading the clear lip-gloss across her lips and shoved her brown hair into a ponytail. Her crystal blue eyes were outlined with red veins that screamed pain and frustration. Amy had been through so many things in her past she didn’t need another bump in the road. She went through years and years of schooling to help the psycho’s, so that way she felt like she was finally sane.
“Bye baby doll.” Chris said handing her the keys.
“Good-Bye Chris.” Amy said placing a small kiss on his cheek, “I do love you.”
“Amy, why are you talking to me like we’ll never see each other again?” Chris asked.
“I’m not, I just want you to know I love you.” Amy said.
“I love you too.” He said then kissed Amy’s lips.
“Bye baby.” Amy said then exited the house.

“Tiffany, I’m going to take Joshua and Alexis out.” I said.
“We need to finish packing.” Tiffany said, stopping from shoving things in her bag.
“Well I’m giving you a break just to do whatever.” I smiled.
“Are you sure?” Tiffany asked.
“Yeah baby, I’m positive. I’m going to take them out with Joey and Vanessa. I’m then going to drop them of so you and I can spend some time together.” I said.
“Alright, I’ll have dinner ready when you get home.” Tiffany said as she brushed her blond curls out of her face.
“Okay, give me a kiss.” I demanded then received my kiss.
“I love you baby.” Tiffany said.
“I love you too.”

“Joey!!!” Nina screamed from the bathroom. Joey ran to see Nina standing in front of the mirror. Her cheeks were soaked with tears and a smile invaded her features.
“What baby?” Joey asked.
“I’m pregnant.” Nina turned to face Joey.
“Again?!” Joey said in surprise.
“Yeah.” Nina said.
“That’s great honey.” Joey smiled wrapping his arms around Nina’s small body.
“My personal trainer is going to kill me, we just worked off this fat from Vanessa.” Nina laughed.
“What are we going to do Nina?” Joey asked.
“What do you mean?” She said placing the pregnancy test in the trash.
“I mean, two kids? What about us?” Joey asked.
“Yeah, it seems like everyone around us is growing into their lives and becoming adults.” Nina said knowing what Joey was getting at.
“Maybe we should actually be a family.” Joey said.
“What do you mean love?” Nina asked.
“I mean, let’s get married.” Joey said.
“Married?” She couldn’t believe it. The pimp, Joey himself, asking if someone would marry him.
Nina felt her knees turn to jelly and her heart beat uncontrollably.
“Yeah.” Joey whispered.
“Don't you think it's a little soon?” Nina questioned.
"Nina, we've known each other since we were kids, I think it doesn't matter how long it's taken us to realize were in love." Joey smiled.
"Alright then, let's get married." Nina smiled.

Tiffany climbed out of the shower and got dressed quickly. After she put her damp blond locks into a bun she went to check on the food. She then continued at the boxes. It seemed like everything was going right in her life. She has Lance, Nina, Joey and JC fixed. Chris was getting married. It seemed like the hectic life that surrounded them before finally calmed down. Normalcy was upon them and it felt great to her. She finished her last bag of clothes and went to rest on the couch. She closed her eyes but her sleep was quickly corrupted by the sound of bangs on the door. Tiffany trudged to the door and opened it to see Amy standing at the doorway.
“Amy, what’s up? Come in.” Tiffany said.
“Not much I just was in the neighborhood and thought I’d come and say what’s up.” Amy said.
“Oh, okay, want something to drink?” Tiffany asked.
“Um, water would be fine.” Amy said.
“Okay, follow me.” Tiffany said beckoning her to the kitchen.
“How are things with Justin?” Amy asked after Tiffany handed her the water.
“They’re great.” Tiffany said making her way to the living room.
“Yeah?” Amy asked.
“Uh huh, how are things with you and Chris?” Tiffany asked.
“Well actually,” Amy paused. She knew she needed to confront Tiffany about this, “I think he’s cheating on me.”
“WHAT?!” Tiffany nearly spit her water out.
“Uh huh.” Amy said sharply.
“Chris cheating on someone? Unthought of.” Tiffany said plainly.
“Well this says otherwise.” Amy dropped the magazine on the coffee table. Tiffany picked it up to Tiffany and Chris’s lips locked together.
“Oh,” Tiffany paused. She had completely forgot about that night. She didn’t know what to say, “Amy he kissed me, I had nothing to do with that kiss.”
“That’s the problem Tiffany.” Amy stood up, “I don’t think you understand how long it’s taken for me to win Chris’s heart from you.”
“I don’t understand.” Tiffany said standing up to reach Amy’s height.
“When I first met Chris I fell in love. I knew right then that he was the man I was going to marry. But his heart belonged to another. A singer named Tiffany. It took me 2 years Tiffany, to convince him he needed to fall for me.” Amy said.
“Okay, why are you telling me this Amy?” Tiffany was still confused.
“Tiffany you are in the way, and all my life I have taken care of people that are in the way.” Amy said.
“What?” The last thing Tiffany saw the gun being pointed towards her. A shot rang out and a bullet shoved it’s way through Tiffany’s heart as Justin shoved open the front door to see Amy holding a gun up.
She didn’t see me. My heart beat a million miles an hour. I couldn’t move but I wanted to. Amy slowly moved the gun to face her and she shot herself right in the head right in front of me. I ran into the room and fell to my knees at the sight in front me. There she was, dead and all I could do was sob.
