Chapter Two:

Liz quickly excused herself and walked out the room after Jenny. She entered the living room just in time to hear Jenny's bedroom door close. George stood up and walked toward the stairs.

"Did I upset her that badly?" he asked worriedly. Liz shook her head.

"No, Riley had Chuck and she snatched him from her. I made her give him back to Riley." She said. George sighed and looked at the floor. He wanted to go and talk to her, but Harry distracted him again.

"Thanks again, Geo," he said, "We're just gonna go ahead and go." George nodded.

"Yeah, bye," George said nodding to his little brother.

Liz hugged him and Jane (The redhead) before Jane gave Liz everything she needed to know about Riley. They left after that and George completely forgot about the problem with Jenny.

He and Liz went into the kitchen were Riley was still sitting at the kitchen table with Chuck. George scooped her up and spun her around. She giggled loudly and nuzzled into him.

He went into the living room and played with Riley in the floor while Liz fixed dinner.

George heard Jenny come downstairs but when he turned to look, she was running back up to her room.

A few minutes later, Liz went upstairs and got Jenny for dinner.

Back to Jenny-

Jenny was sitting on her bed trying to figure out what she's done wrong when she figured she'd just go and ask. She walked down the steps and felt her tears coming back when she saw her Daddy playing with the little girl from before. They were playing with her Chuck. She decided to never ever come out of her bedroom again. She shut the door and ran to her bed. She took deep breaths and tried not to cry again.

A few minutes later her Mummy came in and said it was time for dinner. She decided she'd come out of her room to eat, so she took her Mummy's hand and walked down stairs with her. Liz took her into the kitchen and went to get an extra plate. George was already sitting at the table and Jenny didn't know what to do because the girl was sitting in her seat; on George's lap.

"C'mon then Jenny," Liz said picking her up and setting her in the chair between her and George.

Jenny was silent through dinner. She didn't even look up from her plate. She couldn't bear to see her Daddy holding someone else. His lap was her seat. The more she tried not to think about it the more she felt like crying again. She took a deep breath to calm herself, but it didn't work.

"Mummy," she said, her voice shaking too much for her to fix, "May I be excused?"

Liz looked at her worriedly, "Well sure, love," she said gently, "Are you alright?" Jenny nodded and pushed her chair back before she hurried out of the room. Her sobs shook her body as she stumbled up the stairs.

When she got to her room she could barely stay quiet. She was worried her Mummy and Daddy would hear her and come and see what was wrong.

After a long time of crying loudly, just to see if they'd come and comfort her, she realized they didn't care about her anymore.

When she stopped crying she walked downstairs and sat on the couch silently. Liz looked at her, still a bit worried while George was sitting in the armchair cuddling with the girl and Jenny's Chuck. She watched the TV and tried to ignore the look her Mother was giving her and the way her Father was holding the other little girl.

After nearly two hours of watching TV, Liz pulled her over into her lap.

"Jenny," she said, "You need to go and get ready for bed."

Jenny gasped. It was already bedtime? She never got to jump in the puddles with George! She gave the little girl in her Daddy's lap a glare as she slid off her Mummy's lap and walked to the stairs. This was all her fault.

She went upstairs to her room and she put on her pajamas before she brushed her hair quickly and pushed it out of her face. She brushed her teeth in the bathroom before she went back downstairs to tell her parents goodnight.

She walked up to Liz and kissed her cheek, "Goodnight Mummy," she said quietly. She looked at George before looking at the floor, "Goodnight," she turned and walked away, but only to come back and face Liz.

"Mummy, can I have Chuck now?" she asked, knowing she'd never go to sleep without her teddy bear. Liz looked at George the little girl before she shook her head.

"I'm sorry Love," she said ruffling her perfectly brushed hair, "Riley still has him."

Jenny's heart shattered into a billion pieces. This Riley person had managed to steal her Mummy and her Daddy and her Chuck! Who was this person?

"But Mummy," Jenny started, "I need Chuck!"

Liz shook her head, "I'm sorry, Jenny," she said shaking her head, "You're gonna have to sleep without him."

"But-"

"Jenny, please just go to bed," Liz said kissing her forehead. Jenny shook her head,

"Mummy I need Chuck!" she said near tears again.

"Jennifer Elizabeth Harrison!" Liz said, becoming frustrated, "Go to bed right now!"

Jenny looked at her Mother with tears in her eyes. She'd been called by her full name three times today. She looked at George and Riley with a hateful glare before she ran upstairs and slammed door shut. She climbed into bed and gulped back her sobs.

Down stairs-

George carefully put down Riley, who was half asleep as he got up out of the armchair. He sighed as he hurried up the stairs to Jenny's bedroom.

He opened the door and saw her lying in bed sobbing silently into her covers.

"Alright, Picklepuss," he said walking into the room and sitting on the edge of her bed, "What's going on?" Jenny turned away from him and sniffled stubbornly.

"Jenny, I'm serious," he said turning her back over, "What's wrong with you?"

"I need Chuck!" she said through her sobs. She covered her mouth and George knew she didn't mean to yell. George sighed and kissed her forehead.

"I know you do," he said, "But can't you sleep one night without him?"

Jenny shook her head, "NO! He keeps all the bad dreams away!" she said, her lips quivering and tears pouring down her face. George hated to see her so upset. He sighed and wiped her face gently.

"I'll see if I can get Chuck OK?" he said gently. Jenny nodded slowly and sniffled, "But if I can't, you have to sleep without him, deal?" Jenny took a deep breath and even though she didn't like it, she nodded. George kissed her forehead and walked out of the room.

Jenny waited for a few minutes waiting for George to come back. When he did he didn't have Chuck. She sighed.

"Mum said no," he said softly, "But listen Jenny, I need to tell you this." Jenny nodded sadly.

"Riley is Uncle Harry's little girl OK?" George said tucking her hair behind her ear, "She's staying here for a few days while they go on a trip. I really need you to be a big girl OK?"

Jenny looked away from him and nodded. She didn't want Riley to stay here. She stole her Chuck! George kissed the side of her head.

"Go to sleep, Jenny," he said gently. She turned away from him as he walked out of her room. She cried silently so her Mummy and Daddy didn't hear her.

She eventually cried herself to sleep. She had bad dreams all night all because of Riley.
