Thanks to everyone who reviewed so far. I've tried to keep all your suggestion in mind. As always, if there's something you find off, please let me know.

Given what happened in the original episode, this is probably a good time to mention that, for this story at least, when Curtis rewinds time, he doesn't then overwrite the old timeline, but creates an entirely new one branching off from the point he changed.

Week Four

Day Two

Reaching into her locker, Kelly tried to move her hand around the junk inside to reach her hair brush. As she was pulling it out, through, the brush hit something, sending whatever it was onto the locker room floor. When she bent over to pick it up, she realized it was the box she had put Lee's engagement ring. Without really thinking about it, she opened it up, looking again at the diamond inside.

"Is that the ring?" Alisha asked leaning over towards her. Kelly quickly closed the box up and threw it back into her locker.

"Yeah." She said, trying to sound casual. "I haven't gotten around to returning it yet."

"Returning it? He was the dick, you should be the one to keep it." Alisha told her.

"You think?" She didn't exactly know what you were supposed to do in this situation. But Alisha was right, he had been a dick.

"Yeah." Alisha said, like it was obvious. "I bet you could get some money for it too." Kelly reached into her locker again and pulled out the box, opening it to reexamine the ring in a new light.

"I could come with you, if you want. We could go today after we get off." Alisha offered. Putting the ring back, again, Kelly turned towards Alisha. It might feel good, to get rid of it. And she could use the money.

"Yeah." She told her, "Alright."

OOO

Sam was waiting for him when he got off from community service.

"I didn't think I'd see you so soon." He said truthfully.

"Neither did I." She confessed. Curtis slide down and sat next to her. "There's something I need to know." She told him. "Kelly said your power is to turn back time?"

"Only when I regret something or feel guilty."

"Have you ever used it on me?" He frowned, a bit confused. "I mean, have you ever done something and then rewound time so I wouldn't remember it."

"No." he told her quickly. Then explained. "It doesn't work that way. I don't get to control it." Her eyes narrowed a bit and he back peddled. "But even if I did, I wouldn't do that to you." She snorted slightly.

"How can I know that? We could have had this conversation a hundred times already." She pointed out.

"I we had, I it probably would be going a lot better." He said. That got him a bit of a smile. "Look, I can't really give you any kind of proof. It doesn't work like that. But I can promise. If I rewind something with you, I'll tell you."

"You will?" She asked.

"I don't want to mess this up Sam." He told her honestly. She nodded, slowly. After a moment she looked back at him.

"So, do you have any other big secrets?" She asked jokingly. He gave a smile he hoped didn't look strained. He didn't want to mess this up, but he also knew it would be better for both of them if she didn't know everything that happened that day after the storm.

"I sometimes listen to Elton John." He finally told her.

"No!"

OOO

"I'm sorry, that's not one of our rings." The clerk at the return desk told them. As he called for the next customer, Alisha tried to steer Kelly out of the line and back towards the door. Kelly was frowning.

"This is a good right. It means you can get a lot more money for the ring than you thought." Alisha pointed out.

"Yeah, but where else would a dick like Lee go to get a ring?" Kelly responded. Alisha bit her lip. She hadn't actually met Kelly's ex-fiancé, but from what Kelly said, she suspected Kelly was right. She wasn't going to actually voice her suspicion that Lee had probably stolen the ring, but she also suspected didn't really have to.

"That's not our problem. We just need to find someone who will buy it from you." Alisha told Kelly. Hopefully someone who wouldn't start asking about where it came from, or looking at serial numbers. Kelly nodded.

"While we're here, we should go visit my mate Stacey. She said she could get me a deal on the lipstick I like." Kelly told her, pulling them further into the store. Alisha tried to hide a frown.

Kelly was her friend, and Alisha had offered to help Kelly sell her ring in order to give her the push she still needed to do it, and maybe a bit of support. She hadn't counted on being dragged to the Argos make-up counter.

It looked at first like there was no one working at the counter. Then, as they got closer, Alisha thought she heard a moan, as if someone was in pain. Then a sob. She gave a worried glance towards Kelly. They both walked up to the counter, and leaned over to look behind it. Sitting on the floor with her knees tucked halfway to her chest was girl about their age.

"Stace?" Kelly asked, tentatively. Alisha looked the girl over. At first she couldn't find anything wrong with her. Then she realized she could actually see her stomach growing.

Kelly hurried around the counter. Alisha followed, joining Kelly as she kneeled down in front of her friend.

"I didn't think it would happen again." Stacey said quietly.

"Didn't think what would happen?" Alisha asked cautiously. Stacey looked between them, nervously.

"You'll think I'm a freak." She said. Alisha looked over at Kelly and shared a knowingly look.

"Is it something to do with the storm?" Kelly asked gently. Stacey looked over at Kelly with a bit of shock and a bit of hope. "We had stuff happen to us too." Kelly told her gesturing between the two of them. Stacey nodded gratefully.

"I was just sick all the time. Mornings, afternoons, nights and every time in-between too. I just wanted it to be over. To have my baby without all that shit. When the lightening hit me, it was like a miracle. It hurt, but then he was just there." She shook her head. "Jake just called me a freak. He left right after the baby was born. I didn't know what to do. My sister's the only one who even knows." Growing more quiet as she spoke.

"You said he was just there? Did he just pop out or," Alisha trailed off, not really sure what the other options were.

"No. It was like I was pregnant, just quick." She told them, a bit uncertainly.

"How quick Stace?" Kelly asked. They needed to know how long they had. Stacey shrugged.

"An hour maybe?"

"Do you know how long ago you got pregnant this time?" Alisha asked her.

"Of course I know." Stacey bit out. "I'm not a slag."

"We didn't think that." Alisha told her gently. Genuinely. She more than most knew what it was like for people to think shit like that about you. And what it was like to have a power that made it even worse.

"We just need to know how long it will be before the baby comes." Kelly told her.

"It was on my break, so about half past, I think." She finally said, quietly. That gave them another forty five minutes. Maybe.

"Do you have a car?" Alisha asked her. Stacey nodded, grimacing a bit as if she was in pain.

"Out back in the employee lot."

"Alright then. We just need to get you out there and we can take to you the hospital." Kelly told her.

"No hospital." Stacey burst out, before adding quietly. "They'll treat it like it was an alien or something." Alisha looked up at Kelly who gave resigned shrugged.

"You can't have the baby here." Kelly pointed out. The girl just looked down at her feet again.

"We'll figure something out once we get to the car, yeah." Alisha finally told them. Right now they needed to start moving. Kelly put her arm around Stacey on one side, and Alisha got on the other, helping her up. They didn't make it far. Stacey doubled over in pain before they'd even made it into a different department. She might not be having contractions, but having her insides stretch so much, so fast still hurt. They gave it a few more tries, before Alisha realized they were going to have to come up with a new plan.

OOO

When Simon answered the call, he heard pained groans in the background.

"I'm fine." Alisha told him immediately, already realizing, apparently, what his first thoughts would be. "It's Kelly's friend. She's have a bit of power problem." She added, slightly tentatively. "We need you to get here, as quickly as possible."

"Alisha, what's going on?" He asked, hearing another whimper.

"I'll explain when you get here. Just, get to Argos as soon as you can." She asked him, then quickly clicked off. Simon stared down at the now disconnected phones, as if hoping it could tell him what this was all about. It didn't comply. After a moment He quickly pulled off the slacks and button up he had put on after his shower and changed into sweats, a vest and a non-descript black hoodie. Alisha had asked him to Argos as quickly as possible, so he would.

OOO

They tried to get to move towards back of the store a couple more times before the three of them decided to just sit down in an empty aisle and wait for Simon. Curtis wasn't answering his phone. Nathan wouldn't get here before the baby did. Kelly didn't really know how Simon would get there in time, but Alisha was sure he would and it wasn't like either of them could carry Stacey out to her car.

As far as storm given weirdness went, right now this was ranking up there as possibly the worst. Having a kid less than hour after you shag someone? It wasn't even a power. It was more like a nightmare. It almost made her grateful for what she had gotten dumped with.

Alisha had gone and gotten something to cover Stacey's growing belly, but without being able to move her, all could do now was to wait and keep Stacey calm.

OOO

She'd never really thought about kids before Simon. Unlike Kelly, she'd never really considered marriage either. It wasn't like she wanted to go out and get married or knocked up right away but after watching Simon playing with Nathan Jr. it suddenly seemed like something she'd want someday. Then of course they found out they didn't have someday. Now through, if they could get through the next year or so, maybe. She and Simon would have really beautiful kids. They'd definitely out cute Nathan' step-spawn, and he had been cute enough to win even her over. They'd be smart too, if they took after Simon at all.

At least now she knew they could have kids. A part of her had been worried that their powers would have messed them up. This was the first time she'd actually heard of someone with a storm power carry a baby to term. Course, she wasn't even sure it counted, since it was Stacey's power to begin with. But from what she had said her other baby was perfectly normal, despite its hurried start, so that had to be a good sign, right? It didn't really matter right now, she reminded herself. Until she knew for sure she and Simon weren't going to end up dead before their twenty-second birthdays, she really shouldn't even be tempting fate by thinking about it.

OOO

About fifteen minutes after they had called, Simon rang them to ask where in the store they were. When he rounded the corner and saw the three of them, his eyes grew huge.

"Is she in labor?" he asked nervously.

"Not yet." Kelly told him.

"The storm made her have really fast pregnancies." Alisha told him. "As in, this one probably only has about have twenty minutes left." He looked the three of them over a second. His eyes seemed to grow even larger, and he looked a bit scared. Then, he took a breath and seemed to pull himself together.

"What do you need me to do?"

"Carry her to her car." Alisha answered. He nodded moved towards Stacey. He looked at her a minute, like he was asking for her permission. Stacey nodded and he crouched down and lifted her up in his arms like they do in those romantic comedies. Only without the romantic part. Alisha threw the overcoat she had grabbed over Stacey and they all made their way toward the back of the store. When they got to the car, Simon laid Stacey out in the back seat, and Kelly went in after her, letting her use her lap like a pillow. Once they were all in, through, they realized they had another problem.

"Where are we going?" Alisha asked, from behind the wheel.

"No hospitals." Stacey told them again.

"We could go to the community center." Simon suggested. He didn't really sound like even he thought it was a good idea, but it was the only idea they had. Alisha apparently thought so too, because she just shrugged and turned on the car.

"Alright then."

OOO

Sally actually locked up the center in the evenings, so they had to wait for Nathan to let them in.

"Please tell me that's not another body." He said, looking Stacey. They all glared at him. Especially Stacey.

"She's having a baby." Alisha explained as she began pulling pillows and cushions off of one of the couches.

"And your first thought was to bring her here?" Nathan asked incredulously.

"It's her power." Kelly told his, exasperated. Simon laid Stacey down on the little nest of cushion and removed the coat Alisha had placed over her.

"I thought that was every girl's power?" Nathan said, sounding slightly confused.

"She got knocked up less than an hour ago." Kelly told him. Nathan's eyes grew wide as he looked over and took in Stacey's stomach.

"Jesus. And I thought I had a shit power." Both Kelly and Alisha gave something between a nod and shrug in response. "So, I guess the dad freaked out and went running?" Alisha and Kelly both glared at Nathan again.

"He doesn't know." Stacey told him. Something flashed across Nathan's face for a second, before he quickly shifted back to his usual disinterested expression.

"Nathan. Why don't you help me get some clean towels from the storeroom?" Simon suggested. Alisha looked up at him with an amused look then. He may not have had this particular situation in mind, but after what happened with Marnie he thought it would be best to be prepared, whether it was for another birth or being taken away by an interstellar hitchhiker. Nathan seemed unusually quiet as they headed back to the storeroom.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah, of course. Just glad I wasn't the one to shag her." He said. "That's why I always use a condom. And if the girl looks dirty, I use two." Nathan slapped his back. "Belt and Braces." Simon just shook his head and let it be.

Nathan had a thick skin about most things. Insults seemed to slide off him, and, with a few exceptions, he was quick to forgive. That was why, Simon suspected, he couldn't seem to grasp that his words and actions hurt others. He didn't understand that everyone didn't have that same ability.

There were some things, through, that seemed to open old wounds. Particular at this point, before he'd had a chance to reconcile with his father. If this was one of them, Simon wasn't sure how he could to help him deal with it, or even if he should. Nathan was always talking and most of what he said was about himself, but the things that actually mattered, that actually hurt him, he was never very good at talking about. And Simon knew that if he allowed things to play out Nathan would eventually work through his issues. The way he'd been with Marnie and Nathan Jr. in the months after the baby was born was proof of that, even if the start of their relationship was rather unconventional and rushed.

While they were walking back to the main room they heard a shriek, far more high pitch and far louder than any of the other sounds Stacey had been making earlier. Simon ran towards where the girls were sitting with Nathan following behind. Stacey was holding onto Kelly and Alisha's hands so tight they were both clenching their teeth trying not to yell themselves.

Stacey let out another scream and he was able, barely, to catch the baby in one of the towel. Shaking slightly, he handed Stacey the bundle and she quickly let go of the other girl's hands. Then she screamed again and the afterbirth seemed to shoot out onto the floor.

Nathan's eyes went wide and he shrieked when he saw it.

"No!" Simon and Alisha both yelled at him. It was too late. Nathan stomped down, hard. Then he immediately screamed in pain. He hopped backwards for a few steps before flopping down on the floor. Simon grimaced. Simon realized he had accidently created a force field around the thing. Instead of stomping down on the soft mush lying on the floor the way Nathan had intended, he had hit the hard surface several inches above it.

"Sorry." He told him. Nathan muttered several phrases Simon was fairly sure weren't appropriate in front of a baby and continued to hold his foot.

"That's the afterbirth you dick." Kelly told him, shaking her head. They all sat there for a minute, catching their breaths. At the sound of the door they all looked up to see Curtis and Sam burst into the room. The couple stopped a few feet in, taking in the scene.

"Where have you been?" Nathan finally asked.

OOO

After they had cleaned up Stacey, the baby and the floor, Kelly called Stacey's sister to come get her. She hoped that she'd be able to convince Stacey to see a doctor. And, maybe, to tell the second one's Dad. For all they know, he might have been hit by the storm too.

Kelly wasn't sure whose idea it was, but somehow they decide that since they were all already together and hungry, they should get dinner. They ended up eating take-away on the roof.

Sam and Curtis were the first to head home. Alisha and Simon followed a bit later. Then she was alone with Nathan and enough food to last him through the week-end. No one had even bothered to complain that he hadn't paid for any of it. Kelly suspected that was because Simon had divided the bill. Kelly watched Nathan a second as he poked at the last of his food.

"Are you living in the community center?" She finally asked him. It wasn't like she hadn't known. He'd been thinking about it enough, but it just hadn't seemed right to ask. He looked like he was going to argue for a second, then his shoulder sagged.

"Yeah. Okay. I am." He told her holding his hands up. "Big secret revealed."

"How come?" She asked gently.

"Do we really have to be that intimate with each other lives? No. I don't think so." He said. Then she heard him think. "I'm not getting shag now that I'm a homeless." She rolled her eyes, but let it be. She wasn't exactly in a place where she could help him. She still lived with her Mum, and they didn't exactly have much to spare themselves. She did feel a bit guilty now about sell those extra jumpsuits. She probably should have let Nathan make the money off of them, instead of spending it on that premium dog food for Keith. Finally, Nathan let out a long, loud breath.

"Fine. My Mum threw me out, okay." He said it like she had dragged it out of him or something even but she could still in his voice that he was relieved to tell someone.

"Are you alight?" She asked. He just sort of shrugged. They sat there for a rare moment in silence. Then Nathan reached over and grabbed the last of the beer.

Day Three

"So was yesterday a normal day for you now? Rushing off to deal with some new superpower threat?" Sam asked with smile. The early morning light was just starting peek through the windows as her fingers traced along his arm.

"I don't think Stacey could really be called a threat." He pointed out.

"Overpopulation. She could destroy the world." Sam said. She managed to keep strait faced for about two seconds before breaking into a laugh.

"Don't know." He finally said with a shrug. "Seems like every time we turn around there's someone else with a power. You may be right. Sooner or later it's going to be something worse than trapping us in the toilet or making us go bald."

"Bald?"

"That's why we went out last weekend. Kelly's hair finally grew back." He explained.

"Hey," she said, pulling his him down and pressing her forehead against his. "We are going to be fine, alright."

"Yeah." Sam let go leaned back, her smile shifting into a smirk.

"Now, hurry up. We've got be quick if we want to get a shag in before you have to leave."

Day Four

Curtis woke up with a gasp in his own bed. He turned off his alarm then reached for the newspaper by his bed. For the first time he was relieved to see the headline "Drugs Cheat Curtis Donovan Banned from 2012 Olympics." He threw on clothes and his grabbed his jumpsuit before rushing to the community center.

There was no memorial outside the center, but he still hurried inside. His stomach twisted when he realized Alisha wasn't there waiting for him at the cupboard. He headed back towards the lockers and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her fixing her hair in the mirror. In his rush to get here, he must have arrived earlier than before.

"Hi." He said, walking up behind her.

"Hi." She said, without turning around.

"Would you want to." He nodded out, towards the cupboard. Kelly, and Nathan were in the room too, and he really didn't want to give the prick something new to annoy them about. She turned around then, looking confused.

"Do you want to use the mirror?" She asked

"No." He said. "I mean, do you want to, you know." Her eyes narrowed.

"No, I really don't." He glanced over to make sure the other two weren't watch, then reached out, resting his hand on Alisha's hip. Alisha looked back him like he had lost his mind.

"What the hell are you doing?" She said, then pushed his hand off of her, and slipped passed him out of the locker room. He was so surprised, it wasn't until he had already thrown on his jumpsuit that he realized that she had pushed his arm away with her bare hand. And he hadn't reacted to her power.

He ran out of the locker room. Curtis, Kelly, Alisha and Simon were all standing out in the hall. Looking around he tried to find anything else that was different. Kelly and Alisha were chatting together. Nathan was bothering Simon, poking him with his claw. All normal. The only thing that seemed weird was that Simon. He look like he was really bothered by Nathan. He was almost looked like he thought it was funny. He kept carelessly blocking and swiping away Nathan's claw thing with his, like it was a really boring fencing match.

When they saw he was out of the locker room, they all began moving in pairs towards the door. He followed, incredibly confused.

"Hi." He turned as he came out the door and saw Sam leaning against the community center with a big smile on her face. She looked different. Better. Like she had actually slept some in the last six months. Which made him wonder why she would be here.

"What are you doing here?" He asked, nervously.

"I was in the neighborhood. I miss you when you're stuck here all day." She told him. "Are you just going to stand there, or are you going to do something about it?" Curtis looked from Sam, back towards where the rest of the group was. Alisha was sitting on the table. When she looked over and saw Sam, she waved. Curtis turned back towards Sam. She waved back.

"Shit." He had messed up again, but for some reason he wasn't rewinding. When he looked over towards Alisha again, something happened that was even more bizarre. Simon sat down on the table next to Alisha, wrapped his arm around her, and pulled her into a kiss.

AN: Curtis mentions listening to Elton John on his short lived twitter account.

Stacey Mulligan is a friend of Kelly mentioned by both her and Seth on their twitter accounts. According to Kelly she works at a make-up counter and has twins by two different fathers. Seth mentions her full name, as well as the fact she is known as "The Beast." He also tells Kelly that she sold him the power to "pop out a kid, from spunk to spawn, in under an hour." The idea that her "twins" were actually two different pregnancies accelerated by her power was my own.

Kelly mentions selling jumpsuits on her twitter account.

Kelly and Alisha talk about weddings during Simon's video "Girl Talk".
