I do, however, own Cassie Night, Bethany Night, Payton Carter... well, anything you don't recognize. If you want to use any of my original cherictors, just ask.

Chapter 1

Belen, New Mexico.
Cassie Night didn't know exactly where she was going or what exactly she was going to do. But, she knew that she had things she had to do to make it in this world. She glanced at her little girl, Bethany, and smiled. "Bethany, Mommy's gonna be gone for a few day's, but, I'll be back." And I'm hoping to bring Daddy home with me. She thought but didn't say because she didn't want to get the little girls hopes up.
"where are you going?" Bethany asked.
"Mommy just has some stuff to do. Don't worry, you and Grandma are going to have fun."
"okay"
"I love you honey"
"I love you too Mommy." Cassie walked to her Hummer and drove off. She was going to be more then a few days, but Bethany didn't have to know that, she wouldn't understand. So, Cassie drove on her way to Miami Florida by herself, the first time that she had left her little girl. She was going in search of Bethany's father, Tim Speedle. She left Belen New Mexico.

Flashback
Four years ago
Cassie sat with Tim 'Speed' Speedle and smiled weakly, she knew there was something wrong, but she didn't know what it was. She had gotten herself into a mess with this man. She's 16; he was 26, a ten year difference that she tended to ignore way too much. She sometimes forgot she was only 16 and acted like an adult often. But, Speed didn't seem to mind. In fact, she often felt as if he liked it. Maybe it was because he knew the relationship was illegal and he could get into trouble. "we need to talk" they both said at the same time.
"you first" he said.
"no you first" she said for two reasons, one: she didn't want him pressured by what she was going to say. And two: she was putting off what she needed to say.
"this isn't going to work. None of your family like's me. The all know I'm too old for you. You deserve better then me. My life is taking wild turns while yours is still going straight. I got a job offer in Miami, and I'm going to take it. I'm sorry but, it's for your own good."
"so, just like that, it's over, we spend a year dating. You promise me that we'll be together forever and then you just walk out on me?" she fought back tears. There's no way I'm telling him what I was going too.
"not just like that, I spent a lot of time thinking about it. You have so much to live for, you have your whole life ahead of you."
"I'm sorry, but, I thought you were going to be there my whole life." She felt immature as she threw his previous word's back at him.
"I'm sorry Cas. I have to go, Goodbye." He got up and walked to his car, she watched him drive off. Now your really screwed Cas! You have a baby on the way with no father to help.
