Riley went in her apartment. She put her hands on her belly.
'I can't believe I have a baby growing in there' she thought.
She wasn't looking forward to being reasonable with Gary, but she knew it had to be done.

"Listen, Riley, that night, I really felt something for you, and when you said you didn't love me after you got me so excited, it really hurt me. That's why I acted the way I did. I know it's unexcusable, and you have a right to hate me, but I just wanted to let you know that." Gary was sitting on the couch, sighing.

"I don't hate you Gary. My hormones are really out of whack right now and it's just hard..." she said.
A tear ran down her cheek.
"But there is another reason.... I want Chris to be the father, and I thought if I tried to take you out of our lives..." she touched her belly here to show who she was talking about.
"It could make it happen. But it can't, and I don't know if Chris even wants anything to do with me let alone my baby." she finished.

"I know, Riley. I don't hate you either. I understand why you would want Chris to be the father. You love him. I think that for now, we should just be friends." Gary smiled.

"I still don't know if I want you to help me Gary." she said.
"I want my baby to have a normal life, or as normal as possible, and it's not right for him or her to be exposed to our enviroment."

"Riley, you need to realize it isn't only your baby. It's mine to. I need to have some say in who cares for him. I want to see him once in a while, and I told you, I'm getting help for my problems. I'm starting therapy today." Gary looked straight into Riley's eyes while saying this.

"Fine you can see him or her once in a while. But you need to know that we can't be friends. We are not friends. We are connected by the child that we are going to share." she said.
Riley's phone rang, it was Rori.
"Hello?"
"Oh no..."
"I can't believe it..."
She looked at Gary.
"Tyler is dead." she said, with glassy eyes.

Gary looked at Riley angrily, then suddenly felt terrible for her.
"Riley, I'm so sorry. He was murdered by two muggers in Amsterdam. I'm so sorry." Gary knew Riley had to be alone, so he stood up and started walking toward the door.

Riley layed down on her couch and buried her head in a pillow. She wanted Gary to leave but hoped Sammy would stay.
She realized she was still on the phone.
"Rori... I'm pregnant." she said
Rori hung up.
Riley needed a friend. One who could understand her. She needed a girl.

"I'm glad you two are trying to get things under control. It really is the right thing to do."
Sammy saw the look in Riley's face and knew she wasn't in good shape. She knew instantly Rori hung up when she looked at Riley's face. Riley was going to be in Sammy's life longer then she thought. This girl needed help. Sammy knew that...

Riley burst into tears. Her life was quickly coming apart from the seams. She was pregnant by a guy she doesn't have feelings for, Tyler was dead, Rori probably hated her and she almost killed the guy she loves.
"Sammy... sniff... why is everything going so... sniff... wrong?" she said.
She barely knew Sammy, but she felt comfortable around her.
