As much as she wanted someone to fill Dequan's place she knew it wasn't possible. Ricky knew this, but he was determined to try. He rehearsed his speech, pulled out his best clothes, even washed twice behind his ears. He knocked promptly on the door Friday night at the same time he had every Friday night since Keira was born.
But instead of heading straight for the kid's den, Ricky headed straight for Madison outside. Madison was where she usually was, staring intently at her painting. Ricky watched for a few moments, watching each brush stroke become something more. "Oh," she gasped, realizing someone was behind her. "It's just me," Ricky said softly into the night air. Moments passed between them as they gazed across the distance in each other's eyes. "No," Madison answered the unspoken question between them.
It was now or never, Ricky thought. He closed the space between them quickly, taking her into his arms. "I'm not trying to replace him Madison." Madison broke free of his grasp and stormed towards the house. He quickly caught her and pulled her back in. "Madison, your never going to fill the void if you don't allow yourself too." Madison cracked and began sobbing uncontrollably.
He remembered holding her once before as she cried her heart out. It was the most trying time of her own life, but the best part of his. But this time Ricky hoped it would play out differently. That instead of a one night fling, she'd finally see the potential they could have. Madison pulled away and kissed him again, just as passionately as she had all those years before. He felt doomed to a mobius romance, a never ending cycle of lust and hate. "I've warned you," she said between kisses, "but you're so damn persistant." Ricky could only smile as he looked into her eyes. 
Maybe she'd come around. "What does that mean?" Ricky asked, he'd rather hear her say it than to be lead on by criptic Madison messages.
"Maybe I can try to not break your heart," deep down Madison knew that she could promise that. And possibly keep that promise.
((Madison fulfilled... Girlfriend of 10 Sims. I put myself on a time crunch when Gavin was named heir. Since I lost A LOT of time while raising 3 kids as a single parent. I. will. never. do. that. again. OMG! So time to wrap it up and move on. Gen 5 complete! ))
((Madison, gen 5, goals complete! Just in time.))
