Connie's View

Hey Hey! Connie here!

Ok I probably know what your thinking Ahem "What the hell is she doing giving an update? She's a fucking fiction character" - But haha to you ... I'm updating so go fuck yourself! (A/N: Sorry if your offended by language).

Dad hasn't been in his best spirits ... Not that I blame him - But sheesh it's been two years! I'm now sixteen ... My little brother Ash who I havent seen for two years is about ... 13/14-ish. Dang I can't remember his fucking age! God I miss him ...

Dad has tried dating people again. He's gone through at least 10 people and unfortunately I was there to see it all. Coz Dad wanted my opinion on them.

There was this one girl she was about the 5th person Dad dated ... for 1 hour. She waltzed up introduced herself as Stacey - Honestly who names their kids Stacey? Good thing she was a blonde otherwise I'd've walked off with dad straight away- She looked at me and asked dad if I was his sister. I lost it ... I told her that he was my father all she said was "What?" I told her in simple words "He is my Dad" and I got this response "What?"

"FUCKING DIPSHIT!!" I screamed and dragged dad out. He wasn't angry, he was rather happy that I wasn't scared to voice my opinions and leave.

Oh before I forget Laugh's their was this girl I called "The laughing legend" seriously all she did was laugh ... at the coke at the waiter at the food. She made these sounds while laughing and we think she was trying to talk I looked at dad who got up grabbed me and bolted, ahh that was hilarious! As soon as we got out the door we cracked up laughing leaning against the door for support, she knew how to be funny. But we don't think she was being funny deliberatley coz honestly there really was something wrong with her. And just so you know the girl was brunette and called "Amber" Dad had to keep from spitting out his drink in hysterics when she pronounced it "A-m-her" it was punctuated with an evil laugh that made me sit next to dad instead of her . For some reason, Dad found that to be funny. Amber looked offended, trying to speak but all that came out was laugh's, something like that Franddresha person I saw on Family Guy last night.

The date wasn't much of a success especially as the Laughing Legend chased our car is a convertible which she chased down the street screaming "Har-Da Har-n Har-ny I think she was calling "Danny!" I dunno though it was hard to tell. Dad freaked and hit the gas, she fled out of sight for a bit, we stopped at a red light when I looked over to the next car and screamed, Amber was in that taxi cab smiling evilly at us. Dad yelled and drove off dodging inbetween the cars. It was a pretty good thing that Dad is fearless!

That night I knocked on Dad's door "Enter" he called, he was proped up in bed reading. "Hi dad." I smiled walking in nervously. Dad put the book down and opened his arms, I walked even quicker, and hugged Dad.

"What is it?" He asked making no attempt to break away from the hug.

"When are you going to go back to Mum?" I asked nervously, Dad had the tendancy to break whatever he was holding when I talked about her - I was really nervous now because I was in his arms. I felt dad's grip tighten on me way to hard. "Ouch your hurting me!" I cried. Dad apologised quickly.

"I don't know sweety, maybe when she calls and apologises for doubting me over that call."

"Dad this is stupid! Give her your apology first! Clear this mess up first!" I said exasperately. "Your being stupid!"

Dad eyed me with playfull anger. Suddenly he started tickling me, while pinning me on the bed so there'd be no escape.

"Apologise!" He grunted as I roared with laughter desperately trying to escape, Dad did this all the time when he wanted to get revenge or when he wanted me to say sorry.

"Ne-never!" I gasped. He only tickled harder forcing me admit defeat as I could breathe for laughing.

"SORRY!" I cried, suddenly he stopped with a victorious expression. "I win!" He gloated. I threw my nose in the air "For now!" I responded. Dad chuckled, "Off to bed miss!" Dad ushered me out the door.

"Night dad"

"Night Connie"

I walked to my room when I stopped, suddenly I had an urge to call Ash - At 10 o-clock at night!- I raced down the stairs trying to be as quiet as possible, I got to the phone and started dialling the number, the Ash I knew wouldn't be asleep this early on a Saturday night.

"Hello Ash Ketchum speaking!" It was a wonderful feeling to hear his voice again.

"Guess who Ash"

"Connie?" He gasped and suddenly the video-phone sprang to life. I smiled at Ash who was completely gobsmacked.

"In the flesh!" I responded " Oh it's good to see you."

"Yeah back at you! Nice hair!"

"Thanks!" I replied running a hand through my black and braided hair."I would've said the same to you but ... I can't heh I don't like it!" Ash laughed. "So whatcha call for?"'

"It's time we got our parent's back together"
