Andy's POV
A month later
(I have a BIG plan for this chapter BTW)
-
I am currently eight months pregnant. I'm so excited today. Oliver has off for a couple days since BMTH's tour broke down, and coincidentally it broke down in Scranton. So, I'm gonna meet him at the shop and just hang out with them for the day. Oh yeah, I forgot to add that he apologized and said he respects my decision to not be with my child's father or let him in his life.
"Ricky, I'm going to the mechanic" I told my boyfriend... Well, we aren't official yet, he hasn't asked, but we act like couple. I'm definitely happier with Ricky than I was with Vegan.
"Why?" Ricky asked.
"Bring me the Horizon's tour bus broke down, so Oli is gonna be here for a few days and he wants to see me" I told him.
"Well, have fun. And we're going on one last date before Ryan is born and before I have to go on tour, so please be back before eight" he said before I kissed him on the lips.
"Will do, bye" I said before walking outside.
I got into my car. It was pretty hot outside, about ninety degrees, today is the hottest day this year so far.
I sat down onto the leather seat, which burnt my ass and thighs because the sun shining down on a leather seat and sitting down in it in shorts, is not a good mixture. Let's not forget, I also burnt my fingers on the metal part of the seat belt. Late spring and all of summer are not my friends.
I started the car and cranked up the AC. Warm air blew through the vents for a few minutes. I pulled out of the driveway and began to make my way onto the main road.
-
I got to the auto repair shop that Oli said that he was at.
Oli, Matt, Lee, Jordan and VEGAN?! Fuck! I forgot that he was in the band.
Andy, just ignore him. Don't pick fights with him or argue with him, it's not worth it.
I got out of the car. I approached my older brother and attacked him with a big bear hug.
"Your belly's gotten big" Oli said.
"Well, I am eight months pregnant" I told him.
"Heyo Lee-lee" I said to Lee as he hugged me.
"Hi Andy" he said. I moved over to Jordan and hugged him.
"Hi Andy, Emma misses you" Jordan said.
"I miss her too, if I go back to Sheffield, I'll make sure that I hang out with her" I told him.
"She'd really enjoy that" he said as I gave Matt Nicholls a hug.
"You need to come back to Sheffield, we all miss you!" Matt said.
"I know, I know, I'll visit when I can" I told him.
"Will we get to meet Topanga?" He asked.
"More than likely" I said as I moved down to Vegan.
"Matthew" I said coldly
"Andy" he said just as coldly.
"How about we go get lunch?" Oli asked, breaking the tension.
"Let's do that" I said. We piled into my car and drove across the street to a vegan friendly restaurant since my ex-husband and my brother are vegans.
We walked into the restaurant and got seated. Unfortunately, I got seated right next to Vegan.
"Hi guys, I'm your waitress, Libby, can I get you guys anything to drink? We have Coke products" she said.
"Do you have sweet tea?" I asked. She nodded as she wrote it down.
"Coke" Matt, Oli, Lee and Jordan said.
"Doctor Pepper" Vegan said.
"I'll be back momentarily" she said.
"How's life been Andy?" Jordan asked.
"Good for the most part, how about yourself?" I asked.
"Life's been great, have you met any guys that have caught your eye?" He asked.
"Well, I'm kind of back with Topanga's dad" I said.
"Kind of?" Oli asked.
"Yeah, we're together but we're not official, he hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend yet, he wants to take it slow" I said.
"Andy, can I talk to you?" Vegan asked. I rolled my eyes and nodded. We walked outside, by my car.
"What?" I asked.
"You moved on?" He asked.
"Yeah" I told him.
"Didn't you love me?" He asked.
"Once you became a complete and utter asshole, I stopped loving you, so I didn't love you for three out of the four years that we were married" I said.
"I don't think I was an asshole, you were just a bitch twenty-four seven" he said. I tried to keep my cool.
"I was a bitch because you were an asshole. Haven't you heard the term 'two can play at that game'?" I asked.
"You're being a bitch right now" he stated.
"Really? You wanted to talk to me so that we can fight? Real mature Matthew, another reason why I divorced your sorry ass" I said.
"Like you're an expert on maturity!" He said.
"Well, I'm more mature than you'll ever be, just accept that we're over, we're done, just get over me. If you really did love, you wouldn't have treated me the way you did. If Oli or Tom were to have seen the way you treated me, Bring me the Horizon would have a new bassist or no longer be a band because either one of them would have killed you" I said.
"You're over exaggerating. I didn't treat you as bad as you say I did, if anything we fought as much as a normal married couple would" he said.
"Normal married couples don't fight with each other twenty-four seven" I told him.
"How would you know? I'm the only person you've been married to" he said.
"Because Jordan and Emma never fight like we did, Oli and Hannah never fight, and here we are, you always find something to bitch about Matthew" I snapped.
"I bitch about everything? You're the one to talk" he said.
"I'm done talking to you, I hope you know that I'm not letting my son have an asshole of a father, that's why I'm not letting you into his life" I said.
"Wait! You're not letting me into my son's life?!" He asked, acting as if he cared.
"Oh so now you start caring? You didn't care about Ryan before, why start caring now? I'm not letting my son have a father that barely cares" I said.
"Your son, he's my son too Andy. Did you forget that it takes two to make one? I had part in creating him too! A father that barely cares is better than no father at all!" He said.
"Ryan will have a father, and it won't be you" I snapped.
"Who will father him? You know that he will be asking questions when he's older about why he doesn't look like you or whichever douchebag's life you decide to ruin next" he said.
"How do you know that Ryan won't look like me? And ruin? Ha! You're funny! Did you forget that it was your choice to have your life ruined, but then again, you don't think" I said.
"I know Ryan will look at me, I've seen the ultrasound pictures!" He said.
"The last time you actually looked at any of the ultrasounds of him was when I was three months along and he was just white blob on the fucking screen! And you only glanced at it for a couple seconds and went back to playing your fucking video games!" I said.
"Whatever! I know what I saw!" He said. I flicked him off and went back into the restaurant. I'm glad that I'm not with him anymore, I don't think I would have been able to bare his douchebaggery any longer.

I got home in the nick of time. I hurried to my room and touched up my makeup and went into Ricky's room.
"Hey Ricky, I'm ready" I said.
"Looking beautiful as always" he said, I blushed.
"Shall we go?" He asked, I nodded.
We walked out to his car and started it up, sitting in it for a few minutes before going so that the AC could get going first.
"How was your day with your brother?" Ricky asked as we pulled out of the driveway.
"It was okay, I forgot about the fact that my ex-husband is in my brother's band, so yeah. Matt and I got into a fight and him, being the big baby he is, got mad when I told him how the marriage actually was" I said.
"Does he know that he's not going to be Ryan's father?" He asked.
"Yup! And he fucking tried to say that Ryan will look like him but the last time he looked at an ultrasound was when I was three months pregnant and he only glanced at it for a second and you can't even tell who the baby looks like on an ultrasound for fucksake!" I told him.
"What a fucking idiot" he said as we pulled into the parking lot of Buffalo Wild Wings. I saw this coming, Ricky knows that I don't like Hooter's because of the big boob June's that are running around there, call me insecure and jealous if you want but there food isn't all that great either.
He turned off the car and walked over to my side and helped me up. We walked inside.
"How many am I seating today?" The lady at the door asked.
"Two" Ricky said. She grabbed two menus and guided us to our table. We got seated at a table in the corner.
"Your waiter will be here momentarily" she said.
"What was the reason behind you wanting us to go on a date tonight?" I asked.
"Well, because you're due in two weeks and after that, we won't be able to go on any dates for a while and a couple weeks after Ryan is supposed to be born, I'm supposed to go on Warped Tour, so I figured we'd out tonight and I have a question" he said.
"What's the que-" I said as the waiter approached, he was a tall, lanky, African American gentleman, he looked no more than nineteen years old.
"Hello, I'm y'alls waiter Tyrone, and what can I get y'all to drink?" Tyrone asked.
"Mountain dew please?" I asked.
"Okay, mountain dew for the pretty lil' mama, what about you?" He asked Ricky.
Ricky clenched his fists when Tyrone called me a 'pretty lil' mama'.
"Pepsi please" Ricky answered. The waiter nodded and walked off.
"What were you going to ask?" I asked.
"I was gonna ask if you would be my girlfriend" he told me.
"Yes" I said. He smiled at leaned over the table to kiss me.
Now we're official finally...
