TRUTH- A short Kay story by Amanda Balser



PART ONE- The truth comes out



Chapter 1- Feelings of Regret



That was it. Everyone had found out the truth. It didn't seem like anyone would ever talk to her again. She was pregnant with Miguel's baby. She had ruined his wedding to Charity by announcing her pregnancy accidentely. She never meant to hurt him. She had only meant to hurt Charity. Evil Charity. Ever since she came into everyone's life she stole everything that Kay had away. Her money, her room, her friends, her best friend; Miguel, and her mother. Now that the truth had come out, Grace hated her. She had never been an amazing mother but lately everything had just gone down the tubes. Since the pregnancy announcement, Miguel had found out that she loved him. Even though she told him before he went into hell, clueless Miguel had still thought that Kay had only loved him as a friend. Miguel told Kay that he was sorry that she felt this way, but he didn't love her. Only Charity. He would find a way to get Charity back. But he also promised that he would help Kay with lamause classes and doctor appointments ect. That was a start. Kay had rejoyced this concept and found comfort in the fact that he would be spending a lot of time with her. She paid no mind to the simple fact that was there. Even when it was plainly said in her face by her sister Jessica, "You may have his baby Kay. But you'll never have his heart." the young teenager smirked. Kay only replied with a determined smile, "I may not have his heart...YET...but I'm going to have his last name soon..and thats a start!" she was hell-bent on getting Miguel to marry her, even if it meant ruining a whole bunch of people's happiness. She loved Miguel so much...she would do anything for him. Even if it meant losing her soul, and other's respect for her in the process.



**FLASHBACK**



"Kay, what are you doing here?" Miguel asked as she stepped into his room.

"I'm here to see you Miguel." Kay said with a sexy smirk on her face.

"Well, what do you want?" Miguel asked impatiently, as he sat on his bed.

Kay softly shut the door and sat beside him, smiling an evil smile. "Well..." he asked. "What Kay? What is it?"

"I just wanted to see how you were doing." Kay said innocently.

Miguel gave Kay a suspicious look. Ever since the events of late, he had been unable to trust her.

"Really?" he asked uncertainly.

Kay nodded sweetly. "Are you alright?"

He sighed and stretched on his blue flannel comforters. "As good as could be expected."

"Oh...poor Miguel." she said compassionately. "Is it things with Charity again?"

"Yes." he simply stated, not wanting to tell the little vixen any more.

"You can tell me Miguel. I wont tell anyone..I promise."

He smiled slightly. There was the old kay shining through a bit. "We had a fight.." he began sadly. "She was mad at me. Again. Because of you. She saw us dancing at the wedding reception and clamed that I loved you instead of her. Now she thinks that I dont love her..And...I just dont know what to do." Miguel stressfully ran his hands through his pitch-black hair.

"You know what Miguel?" Kay smiled. "She's just jealous. She thinks that there's something between you and me, when she has no reason to. She's overreacting. Thats all right, I mean, she's allowed to and everything, but..Miguel. There's nothing between us. She knows that. She's just making excuses not to be with you. You didn't know it was me. End of story. Its not your fault that I got pregnant, and you only kept the truth from her to protect her happiness." he nodded eagerly at each word. "The truth is, she doesnt want to see it like that. I think she wants closure, from the relationship. She's sending you signals Miguel. Guys are sometimes too dense to see that, but women have intuition. We know these things."

"So what are you saying?" Miguel asked. "What should I do?"

"My advice to you, is leave her alone for a few days. Let her calm down and think. Meanwhile, you can do the same thing. Then you can meet again and talk. Miguel, what you are doing right now is impulse, and in this situation it's the wrong thing to do."

Miguel nodded. "Thanks Kay. You helped me so much." he smiled and reached over to give her a tender embrace. "I hate to say it..in fear of being mean..but I'm surprised."

"It's okay Miguel." the young brunette sighed. "It seems that everyone hates me these days." she had a sad look on her face, but then turned to the side with a smirk. It was working!

Miguel grabbed her.

"Kay!" he insisted. "No one hates you!"

She looked at him with big blue eyes. "Are you sure?"

"Of course Kay. I don't hate you. I love you. Your my best friend in the world."

"Really?" she asked. He nodded. "It makes me feel so much better to hear you say that. She pretended to wipe a tear from her eyes.

His face was close to her's now. He brought her chin up softly with his finger.

"It's ok." he whispered. This was it. The time to act.

She brought her face closer and closer to his. Their lips touched. She was kissing him. Soft sweet simple kisses that made her stomach flutter and her heart beat rapidly.

He pulled away, and looked down.

"That was a mistake." he mumbled.

"No it wasn't miguel!" Kay exclaimed, forcing him to look her in the eye. "You did it because you love me. You know you love me." He shook his head, doubt and descisions clouding his eyes. "Look me in the eye..and tell me you don't love me." she said, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I dont love you." he simply stated, looking directly into her pools of blue.

She softly cried. Miguel looked away, not wanting to watch.

"Now..." he said coldly. "Get. Out."

"What?" she asked her voice breaking with emotion.

"GET OUT NOW!" he yelled with anger. Kay ran out of the room sobbing, and out the front door.



Chapter 2-the Truth comes out



BACK AT THE BENNETT HOUSE



Why couldnt he admit that he loved her? Kay had started to pack. She needed to get away from Harmony for a while and think things through. She placed her favourite t-shirts and hot pants in the grey luggage case and sighed deeply.

"KATHERINE ELIZABETH BENNETT! GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE!" she heard a yell.

Kay ran downstairs, full of confusion. There sitting on the couch, holding a red leather notebook was her mother, Grace. The monster.

"W-what is it mom?" Kay asked, her voice shaking. She didn't like to be afraid of her mom, or at least let it show, but now she was really scared. Her mom seemed MAD.

"Do you know what this is?!!?!" her mom asked placing the red book in front of Kay. On the front was letters in gold. 'My Diary' it read. Kay gulped. It was her diary. All of her private thoughts were in there. All of her schemes to get Miguel, all of her hopes and plans and ideas, doings and evil thoughts and wishing. All about the carnival and hell and zombie charity. All about the fish guts at the prom, her love for miguel, hate for charity, evil pregnancy.

"W-whats that mom?" she asked.

"You know DAMN WELL what it is!" Grace yelled.

Kay hoped to god her mom didnt read it. But by the look on Grace's face she seemed like she did.

"I don't know what your talking about." Kay glared, daring herself to be more brave.

"This is YOUR DIARY Kay. And I read it. I know exactly what you did."

"YOU READ MY DIARY?!" Kay screamed. "How could you do that? its private mother!!!"

"I dont care if its private Kay. I called Sam at the station, he should be here soon, I also called Charity, Jessica and Simone at the mall on their cell. They are coming home. And I called Miguel at his house, hes coming over."

"Why?" Kay simply asked.

"I.." Grace declared evily. "Am going to show this to everyone and they can learn ALL THE EVIL THINGS YOU HAVE DONE!" she yelled.

"No! Mom! Please dont!" Kay pleaded.

"DONT MOM ME." Grace snapped.

"I'm sorry mom! I'm sorry for all the bad things I've done!"

"Well its too late for sorry now isn't it?" Grace smirked.

Just then Sam, walked in the room, followed by Charity, Simone and Jessica.

They stamped the snow off of their shoes and took off their coats.

They saw that Kay had been crying and rushed over to her.

"Kay..whats wrong?" Jessica asked.

"Kay!? Are you alright?" a concerned Charity said softly.

"Kay!" Sam exclaimed. "Grace! What did you do to our daughter?!" he asked, glaring at his wife. Grace only smirked.

"Nothing." she growled. "She brought it on herself."

"Mom, what did you bring us here for anyways." Jessica asked.

"You will see soon enough," Grace smiled evily. "Sit down. We have one guest yet to arrive." Kay sat down on a big chair and gulped back tears. Miguel. Soon everyone would know the horrible things she had done. Everyone would completely hate her.

Just then Miguel came in the door. Charity looked shocked to see him and looked down.

"Whats this all about Grace?" he asked anxiously. "You said it was urgent!"

"It is." Grace said. "Sit down Miguel. It's time that you learned the truth."

Miguel sat down beside Simone and took a deep breath in, looking at Kay sideways.

She was crying, silent soft tears. He turned to Simone on his left and whispered in her ear.

"Whats wrong with Kay?"

Simone shrugged. "I dont know, Grace says that we'll see."

"This." Grace said, holding up the red notebook. "Is Kay's Diary."

"What are you doing with that Aunt Grace? Diaries are sacred!" Charity insisted.

"Wait until you find out whats inside." Grace said angrily.

"Grace!" Sam exclaimed. "You read poor Kay's diary? How could you?"

"JUST WAIT...!" she yelled. "Until I'm finished."

She procceeded to tell everyone all the bad things Kay did, she had pages bookmarked and read out from certain ones. She must have gone through alot of planning. To make Kay's life miserable.

After she was done everyone sat in silence. No one would look at Kay.

Grace was satisfied, and sat on a chair with her arms crossed, a sly smirk on her face.

Simone was the first to speak. "Kay!" she said coming up to her friend. "I cant believe you! I always knew you did really bad things, but to think you were behind all this? Zombie Charity? Fooling Miguel to make love to you? I cant believe it!" with that she stood up and left the room.

Next was Jessica's turn. "Kay! I always knew you were a bad person. I ALWAYS KNEW IT. But I never knew you were this bad! You made a deal with Hecuba and brought evil back to harmony, again and again! Your the reason behind most of the heartbreak and sorrow here!"

Then Jessica left, following Simone. Then there was Charity. Kay smirked inwardly. Knowing Charity she would cry, yet be calm and tell kay that she was sorry for what she was going through ect.

This was not the case. The blonde girl came up to Kay calmly, then with a look of anger and hurt, she slapped Kay. So incredibly hard. Kay reacted immediately, and stunnly touched her face. Tears stung her eyes. She must be a truly bad person if Charity hurt her.

"I cant believe you Kay!" Charity said through tears. "You did all of this. ALL OF THIS. Just to hurt Miguel and me. Especially me. What had I ever done to you? I came to this town, not wanting all of this attention turned to me. It just happened. I cared about you so much. You were so cool and I wanted to be just like you. Now I'm glad that I'm not. Your a selfish un-feeling little Bratt, Kay Bennett! You tore apart me and Miguel and made us feel so much misery. I hate you Kay! I hope you rott in hell for an eternity!"

She stamped out of the room sobbing loudly.

Next was Miguel. Her beloved Miguel.

"I dont know what happened with you Kay." he said quietly. "Before we were such good friends, you were such a nice person. Somehow it all changed. I dont recognize the person in front of me. I can't believe you would do this much to cause pain to Charity. I love her so much, and if you truly loved me you would let me be happy with her. I cant even list all the mean things you've done. You've caused misery and sorrow. Kay thats you! Misery and sorrow! Thats what follows you everywhere! I HATE YOU KAY BENNETT. I HATE WHAT YOU'VE DONE. I HATE WHAT YOU'VE BECOME. I HOPE YOU AND THE BABY DIE A SLOW PAINFUL DEATH. WHEN YOUR DYING I'LL COME IN WITH CHARITY AND WE'LL LAUGH IN YOUR FACE!!!" he spitt angrily then ran out of the room.

Last was Sam.

"Kay..I dont know what to say. Despite all of this, your still my daughter and I still love you. No matter what. Its called unrequited love. I need you to know though, that you hurt me so much. I thought you were some angel, when you werent. I defended you! I thought you wouldnt do anything bad! Boy was I wrong. I was foolish not to see the real you. Because of what you've done, I've been mean to Grace and so unfair. I hate what you did to this family. Now go up to your room. I don't know what to say to you anymore."

Kay cried hysterically and ran upstairs to her room.

**END OF FLASHBACK**



Chapter 3- Running Away from Problems



See? That was her story. Now everone hated her. Her life was ruined forever. She had packed some clothes before, now she was packing as much as she could. She was leaving the house for good. Moving out. She would live in another nearby town and get a job as a waitress or something. She took her savings of about $500.00 and wrote her family a note.



Dear Everyone

Im so so incredibly sorry for all the pain I've caused you.

I've ruined your life and you have no idea the regret

and the sadness that I feel because of it. Not like you

care. I'm running away to somewhere else. Somewhere

where I can start a new life without people judging

me and where I can be accepted for who I am. Faults

and all. I hope that someday you can all forgive me

but I sincerely doubt it. Daddy, I'm sorry that your

dissapointed in me. Thats the last thing that I wanted

to do. I hope that you still love me. I want to thank you.

Even though you shouldn't of, you were the only one

who believed in me, and loved me for who I was.

Thank you. Miguel, I hope that your not too mad

at me. I didn't want to hurt you. I loved you so

much and I couldn't stand you being with Charity

so I plotted. I know its not an excuse but I just wanted

to tell you the way I feel. I love you so much, Miguel

and I always will, even though you'll never love

or forgive me. I am taking our baby with me.

Sorry that you'll never get to see him, but he

will be safe with me. You dont have to worry about

upsetting Charity this way, and you can live your

life guilt and responsibility free. I hope you remember

me still as I was and not how I am, and remember

that I was your best friend and that I never meant

to hurt you. To everyone else, I'm sorry that I caused

you pain or made you cry. I truly regret it, and if I

could take it back, I would. But I cant. I hope you

except my apology and have fun living your lives

without me. You don't have to worry about me ruining

your life anymore.

I wish everyone all the best.

All my Love,

Kay Bennett

PS: Please dont pity me. The worst thing in life

is pity. Live how you would want to live,

and always follow your dreams, except dont

if people will get hurt along the way. -K





She left the note on her dressed and put her fingers to her lips. She kissed her fingers and touched her hand to the page. "I love you everyone." she whispered, taking a deep breath in. She was ready to leave. She quitely crept downstairs, her suitcase in tow. She heard voices from the kitchen and crept by, listening to the conversation.

"I can't believe it. I really can't." Sam sighed.

"I told you! I told you didnt I? I was the only one who knew how truly evil Kay was. No one would listen to me. You really should have you know." Grace insisted.

"Mom!" Jessica exclaimed. "We didn't know, we really didn't. I always knew she was bad, all these little schemes like getting Miguel to dance with her at the reception...but this? I dont understand."

"I'm sorry that I didn't believe you Miguel." said Charity softly. "I was wrong."

"So was I, Charity. I should have noticed that Kay was obsessed with me. I should have stopped it from the beginning. I just was really clueless. I didn't know at all."

"None of us did, Miguel." Charity said.

"I kind of did." Simone piped up. "I didn't mean to keep anything from anybody, but what she told me wasn't as serious as Zombies, or seducing Miguel."

"It's okay Simone." Charity said. "I forgive you."

"Miguel I apologize for putting you through so much." Sam said sadly. "I thought that you were taking advantage of my daughter, when it was Kay trying to seduce you."

"Its alright, Mr. Bennett." Miguel said quietly.

"What are you going to do about the baby Miguel?" Charity asked.

"It's still mine." Miguel sighed. "I'll try to deal with Kay...It'll be hard."

"I can come with you and her to the appointments." Charity said sweetly.

"Charity, your so wonderful."



Kay had enough. She frowned, tears trickling down her face. They really thought that little of her. All she wanted was love. No one cared though. No one cared.

She walked out the door and quietly shut it, so they didn't know that she was leaving.

They were probably going to celebrate...

Suddenly Kay breathed in a gust of wind. She breathed hard, and touched her throat, in fear.

The wind was really strong and blowing trees left and right. The snow that was falling from the air, and the snow that was already on the ground was blowing everywhere. A blizzard. Kay couldn't see her way. She looked back at her door, yerning for warmness. NO. She couldn't go back. Nothing was left for her here. No one cared. She took a deep breath in and started on her journey.



Chapter 4- Shocking News



1 HOUR LATER



Everyone was sitting around the kitchen table smiling. Jessica was telling a funny story and everyone errupted in laughter. Grace stood up, taking everyone's plates. She made them sandwiches for lunch. She took out a plate and put some bread on it. She spread on some butter and got some other stuff to put on it.

"I'm making a sandwich for Kay." she explained with a sigh. "Even though I'm mad at her, she's still my daughter and I need to feed her."

"Honey, your so sweet." Sam said, standing up and kissing his wife on the cheek.

"I don't know how you can be so nice to someone who's caused you so much pain." Miguel, said shaking his head.

"I'm her mother, Miguel. Now I'll be right back. I'll tell you how she's doing when I'm back."

Grace walked upstairs, smirking. Kay wasn't going to plot against anyone else anymore.

"Kay!" she called as she walked down the hallway. "I have some lunch for you."

She knocked on the door. "God knows you don't deserve it, but here's some anyways....Kay? Fine be mad at me. I'm coming in anyways." she walked in and placed her lunch on the bed. Where was she?

Grace looked out the window. Yikes there was a really big blizzard. "Kay!" she yelled. "Where are you? Hiding isnt going to do." she opened Kay's closet to see most of her clothes gone. She looked down to the ground of it, and saw her travelling case gone to. Grace was frantic. She looked in the bank where Kay kept her savings. All of it was gone. Then she saw a note in Kay's handwriting. She gasped.

Just then she heard a scream from downstairs. Grace grabbed the note and ran downstairs.

"What? What is it? Who screamed?" she asked.

"Charity!" Miguel exclaimed. "I don't know whats wrong!"

Charity was sitting on the living room couch, with her head in her hands. Everything was standing around her, asking her questions.

She looked up, and gulped. "I-I had a premonition." she whispered her voice shaky. Her eyes were full of tears and her bottom lip was trembling.

"Charity!" Miguel said frantically. He sat down and held her in his arms. "What was it? Was Kay doing harm to anyone else?"

Charity shook her head.

"Was it about Kay?" he asked.

Charity nodded frantically.

"Kay...Kay's body, in the snow....bleeding." She had another flash of Kay's bleeding body that was tinted blue. She screeched.

"Oh my god Charity!" Jessica yelped. "Your premonitions always come true."

"No, no thats not going to happen." Miguel said, shaking his head. "Kay's in her room." They all looked up at Grace. "Isn't she?" he asked.

Grace shook her head, tears falling down her face. "All her stuff was gone." she explained, her voice breaking. "She left this note." she handed it to Sam, with a trembling hand.

Everyone gasped, and Sam took it and read it out.

"Dear Everyone. I'm so incredibly sorry for all the pain I've caused you. I've ruined your life and you have no idea the regret and sadness I feel because of it. Not that you care." Jessica started to cry. "I'm running away to somewhere else. Somewhere where I can start a new life without people judging me and where I can be accepted for who I am. Faults and all. I hope someday you can forgive me but I sincerely doubt it...Daddy- " he gulped his eyes filling up with tears...

"Daddy," he continued. "I'm sorry your dissapointed in me. Thats the last thing that I wanted to do. I hope you still love me. I want to thank you. Even though you shouldn't of, you were the only one who believed in me and loved me for who I was. Thank you...Miguel." he said looking at Miguel.

Miguel nodded, startled to hear what Kay had to say.

"I hope that your not too mad at me. I didn't want to hurt you. I loved you so much and I couldn't stand you being with Charity, so I plotted. I know it's not an excuse but I just wanted to tell you the way that I feel. I love you, so much, Miguel. Even though you'll never love or forgive me. I am taking our baby with me. Sorry that you'll never get to see him, but he'll be safe with me. You don't have to worry about upsetting Charity this way, and you can live your life guilt and responsibility free."

Charity started to softly cry at that point. Miguel looked on, with tears in his eyes.

"I hope you remember me still as I was, and not how I am, and remember that I was your best friend and never meant to hurt you. To everyone else, I'm sorry that I caused you pain or made you cry. I truly regret it, and if I could take it back I would. But I can't. I hope you accept my apology and continue to live your lives and have fun without me. You dont have to worry about me ruining your lives anymore. I wish everyone the best. All my Love, Kay Bennett." he sighed.

"She wasn't ruining our lives Daddy!" exclaimed Jessica.

"I know Jessica." he sighed. "Theres a P.S..." he started to read the end. "Please don't pity me. The worst thing in life is pity. Live how you want to live and always follow your dreams, except don't if you'll hurt other people along the way...K."

"Oh Sam!" Grace cried. "I never meant to hurt her or be so mean. I should have never threatened her or shown everyone the diary!"

"It's okay Grace." he said taking her into his arms. "Everyone makes mistakes."

"I wish we would have told Kay that." Jessica said sadly.

"DAMN!" Miguel yelled, slamming his fist on the wall.

"Hey, hey, hey Miguel! None of that!" Simone exclaimed, taking Miguel away from the wall.

"She can't die Simone. She just can't."

"No." Charity said, shaking her head sadly. "She can't. I feel so bad.. I slapped her!"

A look of shock came over Miguel. "The last thing I said to her is that I wanted her and the baby to die a slow and painful death.."

"Miguel!" Jessica exclaimed. "How could you say such a mean thing?"

"I was mad..." Miguel said sadly. "We have to call the police!"

"Good idea." Grace said rushing to the phone.

Miguel whispered to Sam. "Lets go look for her ourselves too." Sam nodded.

"Whats going on?" asked David as him and John walked in the room.

"Oh David!" exclaimed Grace as she got off of the phone. "Kay ran away! Blizzard! Charity's premonition..going to die in snow..We were so mean and yelled at her before she left!" she started crying.

"Oh no!" David exclaimed. He didn't personally like Kay, but he didn't want her to die in the blizzard. "What did you do?"

"Grace called the rest of my force." Sam explained. "Me and Miguel are going to go pick up Hank and Luis, and were going to go look for her on our own too."

"Let me help!" insisted David.

"I don't know." Sam said reluctantly. "I suppose..."

"John, do you want to help too?" he asked his son. John nodded.

"I have to help my half sister."

"Theres a big party at the Crane house." Sam said leading the men out of the door. "Luis is there. Lets go get him."

They ran out of the door, on their search for Kay. But what if they were too late?
