Because You Loved Me

Song By Celine Dion

A cute song fic for Lucy and Kevin. I just really felt like doing something quick and easy that I could finish in and hour or so. And then don't worry ill ad more to my other stories like: The Knock on the Door That Changed Everything!!

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all

Lucy was falling apart! She hadn't been on a date and I mean a real date in almost two years! Since she broke up with her fiancé Jeremy nothing has gone right! She can remember their last fight like it was yesterday and trust me it hurts.

Flashback:

"Lucy come on my brothers were just joking around. You know that!" Jeremy said with a laugh after barging into her room after she ran up stairs. "they weren't joking Jeremy. Junior stuck his hand up my shirt and ever since I got here he's been trying to feel me up! And you call that joking around. When I told him I wanted him to stop he didn't! That's sexual harassment, Jeremy!" "Oh he wouldn't be "harassing" you if you would stop acting like a know it all slut!!" "I am not acting like a slut!" "Oh come on I know what you did! You threw yourself at Junior. He even told me when you ran up the stairs like a baby!" "I did not throw myself at him! I asked him to get me something from the top shelf because I couldn't reach it! And if that's sluttish then the people men of New York are seriously deranged!" And then the part of the memory that hurts her the most. Jeremy pulled his hand in the air and when it came down it came right across he face and she back onto the bed. When he left she stood up and started packing then went out the window so she wouldn't have to face them.

End of Flashback

"Luce are you okay?" Mary asked looking concerned, and with that Lucy came back to her senses. "Yeah, I'm fine just in a little trance. No big." "Okay, the plane is going to land soon. I can't wait till you meet Ben! He is so great you'll really like him. And you'll love his brother, Kevin!" "Mary I don't know. Maybe you and Ben can just go out alone. I doubt that some guy would want to spend a Saturday night out with his brother, his girlfriend, and her younger sister." "Yeah, but he's really nice and Ben can't wait to meet you!" "Fine but remember. You promised that you wouldn't try to set me up with him or any New Yorkers! I swore them off remember?" "Yes I remember. Don't worry about it." But when Mary looked away she smirked, for tonight Lucy was going to be set up with Kevin and she is going to love him! He is so her type! I hope.

Later that night

They were all laughing and joking at dinner that night. But Lucy kept hitting her self mentally saying to herself: Sure Kevin is sweet, charming, and well perfect! To me at least. And single!! How can this man be single!! But he is, I mean he's really single, mentally and physically. But I swore off New York men, period!! No exceptions!!

"Well me and Ben want to get some air so… yeah." And with that Mary pulled Ben out of the restaurant.

Lucy was freaking out at a moment she would usually be laughing about. But Kevin just laughed and said, "I think we've been set up!" Lucy, in a I'm-going-to-kill-Mary voice said hesitantly, "Yeah it does, doesn't it?!?" "Well at least we won't have to see them flirt anymore. Ai thought I was rid of that after High School." "Yeah me, too! All Mary ever did was take guys to our house and make out with them or flirt like it was going out of style! She didn't even have the decency to go to the pool hall or something!" "Yeah, it's like they're both genetically charged to make out and flirt." "Exactly." They both started laughing at their sibling's genetic formation. Then their eyes locked and they stared. Lucy was finally the one to break the contact and silence. She looked away from his gaze and out the window, "Beautiful night isn't it?" Looking remotely confused Kevin said, "Uh yeah. Lucy?" "Yeah, huh?" "Are you intentionally changing the subject when we get to into something?" "What do you mean? We were talking about our sibling's genetic deformation. Can't really go deeper with that." "Not with that. Like just now we were contently looking at each other and you broke the contact and made a look on your face." "What look?" "A look like you were telling yourself "stop it." Or "what are you doing"! And if that's the case, for you information, I don't want you to stop. I like this." "What, this?" "This, the laughing the flirting." "I'm not flirting with you!" "Yes you are flirting with me and I like it. And I like flirting with you. I would like to do it more often. Maybe tomorrow night, around seven o' clock?" "For one I did not mean to flirt with you. Two I don't think a date is a good idea and three…." He cut her off "Wait, why is a date not a good idea?" "Because that's my number three, I don't date guys from New York." He thought she was joking but he still had a really shocked look on his face but then immediately it turned into an offended look. "You seriously wont' go out with me because I'm from New York? " "Yes!" she said so-matter-of-factly, he got really angry and said. "That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life! So, what would you go out with me if I was from Arkansas or do you not date guys from there either?!?" "One it's only New York guys. Two, no I don't think I would go out with you because you are the most insufferable men I have ever met!" And with that she stormed out of the restaurant and called herself a cab to get back to the Colonel's House. When she got into the cab she started crying and didn't stop until she fell asleep in her bed at the Colonel's.

The next day at the Kinkirk apartment

Mary was angry, really angry and she felt like she wanted to kill Kevin Kinkirk! She barged into the apartment to find Kevin and Ben watching football in the living room. "Hey Mare what's up?" Ben asked coming up to her. "What's up!! What's up is that I'm going to kill your brother!" "Wait, why are you going to kill Kevin?" Because when I got home last night, I found Lucy crying in her room and when I asked her what was wrong, all she could get out was Kevin….Didn't mean to hurt….so sorry. And then she continued sobbing!" By that time Kevin was up off the couch and burying his face in to his hands, "Look, Mary I didn't mean to make her cry all I was saying was that I thought it was dumb to judge New York men." "Do you know why she doesn't want to date New York men? It's because her ex- fiancé was from here and he hit her after his brother was done feeling her up!" Kevin's eyes got big at this point and he muttered, "I, I didn't know." "Yeah you didn't. So the next time you judge someone make sure you know all the facts first!" After this Kevin grabbed his coat off the hook and ran out the door. "Where are you going?" Mary shouted after him. "To make things right!!" he yelled over his shoulder.

At the Colonel's house

There was a knock on the door and Lucy opened the door. But when she saw it was Kevin she was shutting it again but he stopped the door. "Lucy listen to me, please!" he begged "Why? So you can insult me again? Sorry I don't feel like it." "No Luce, wait." He stopped the door again and pushed through the door and shut it behind him. "look, Lucy I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have judged you before I knew your reason. The only reason I got so angry was because I had finally met a nice, smart, gorgeous women and I was jealous that you would rather go out with some other guy because he was from another state. Now Lucy I know that you're scared but I'm not like your ex- fiancé. I'm different. I'm better. And I would never hurt you. I promise." "Okay. So when does that movie start?"

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
