So for this Fanfic I had to make it where Edward took the last name of the Inventor. Which is, in this case 'Strange'. Kim knew that this was Edward's last name and made sure Jack had his last name. Also for this story to make sense age wise, you have to kind of up the age of everyone. So Kevin and Kim would have to be older during the events of the movie. I didn't think about this until after I wrote the story. Anyway, ENJOY!
Disclaimer: I do not own Edward Scissorhands. If I did then things would have happened very differently. I'd also be in my fifties.
Kim Boggs was doing the dishes in her suburban home late at night, letting her thoughts run wild. She began to think about the gentle young man she hadn't seen for 3 years. The man she had fallen for was driven away by her horrible, drama hungry neighbors.
"Mommy?" A small voice brought her back to reality.
"Jack Aaron Strange what are you doing out of bed?" Kim replied to her 3 year old son.
" I can't sleep. There is to much in my brain." Jack said as his mother picked him up and made way for his room.
"What do you mean there's to much in your brain?" Kim asked the toddler as she set him down on his bed.
"All of my friends have a daddy but I don't. Why don't I have a daddy?" The toddler looked at Kim with questioning eyes.
Kim had known that this question would come up at some point but not this early. Everyone at this point knew who the father of Jack was. It showed. Not to mention his last name.
Jack was a pale boy with ink black hair and dark brown eyes. His father's genes dominated his mother's. Since everyone in Suburbia was convinced that Edward was dead, they left Jack alone. The newer generation of children didn't care because they didn't know the story of the man with scissors for hands.
"Jack, everybody has a daddy. Even you. But... your daddy had to go away." Kim said thinking of the best way to tell him the reason why Edward wasn't there, without lying to him.
"Why? Did he not love me?" Jack persisted, on the brink of tears
"No, no Jack. Of course he loves you. He had to go away because if he stayed he wouldn't be able to live in peace." Kim quickly answered trying to comfort her son.
"Why wouldn't he be able to live in peace? Did he do something bad?" Jack asked, tears receding but still there.
Kim didn't know how to answer this question. She just hugged Jack close to her wondering how she was going to tell him the truth. Oh, Edward. Why did you have to leave?
End of Chapter 1
I think that was good. If you guys like it then review and let me know if I should continue it. Even if you don't I will continue it because I'm having fun writing it. Later!
