Courtney woke up around 7 to find that she slept on her window seal. She quickly brushed the remaining drool off her face and ran down the steps to find her mother looking at papers; she glanced up at her daughter.

"Hi sweetie."

She ignored her mother and walked into the kitchen, her mother stepped in, frowning slightly.

"Want to talk?"

"Nope." Her daughter replied with a sarcastic smile and threw the juice into the fridge.

"Please Courtney?"

"Fine, about what?"

"Well first off, your father."

Courtney stood still and glared.

"You married him 16 years ago and now you want to talk"

"I know we never talked about it but-"

"But WHAT mom?! You didn't even talk it over with me!"

"YOU WERE 2!"

"I HATE HIM!"

Her mom sighed.

"IM starting to know that feeling."

Courtney turned to her mother, "w-what?"

"He's been, different."

"You just noticed?"

"I know he's never been much of a dad to you-"

"HA!"

"-But this time he's right, I don't thin you should be hanging with them any more."

Courtney dropped her glass onto the floor, it shattered.

'Why?"

"They aren't your people."

"My people? What? I have a people? No one has a people mom, the first friends I ever had, I think they're my people, and yet you refuse to know them."

"I know-but-"

"Why?!"

"They don't seem very nice!"

"Are you kidding?! I have never met nicer people!"

"Honey highly doubt that Val girl is nice…"

'She the nicest out of all of them, she just seems rude and mean."

"Duncan?"

Courtney hid her face now, "leave Duncan out of this for a few minutes please."

"I'm sorry Courtney, what about Jet and John."

"John is nice, Jet is nice, Sam's nuts but is nice."

"…Ill go on a limb here and say they're nice?"

And your first guess was…

"Yeah."

Her mom sat down on a near by chair, "then I guess I have no choice." She took out a paper and a pen from her pocket and started to write something. Courtney's curiosity got the best of her.

"What are you doing?"

"Well, I need to fill out a few papers, this one is bail for Duncan, or a try bail, to see if we can get him out, I'm not sure if that will be possible, so don't get your hopes up," she saw her daughters look, she was both shocked and amused, "and this paper," she lifted up a parchment like paper, "is something I should have done a very long time ago."

Courtney was surprised and looked over her shoulder and read the title, shocked.

"D-divorce…mom…oh my god! I hate him but that's doesn't mean you-"

"I sucked up to him long enough, time for a change. By the way I read a text message you got," she handed her daughter her cell phone, "it said your friends would come to see you around 9ish, so I suguest you get ready."

She pushed Courtney out of the kitchen, she noticed the big fat smirk on her mothers face.

Courtney stood in the hall way, shaking her head, "she's rushing into things to quickly I swear she's like a teenager sometimes…but I hope she knows what she's doing…then again, its mom…" she smiled and raced up the steps.
