A Not
So Welcome Surprise 4/?
Catie hadn't gotten home till way after about 1 in the morning. She quietly opened the door after Jamie had left. She insisted that he not walk her to the door in case anyone was up and she was in trouble.
"Good morning, dear" Her mother said sitting on the living room couch sipping a cup of coffee.
"Mom, I can explain" Catie began.
"Don't worry about" Her mom wasn't upset at all it seemed. "Mrs. Waite told me what was happening and I understand. I think it's great that you're spending so much time with Jamie before he leaves. He really is a darling boy and it's a shame he has to move." Her mom hugged her Catie was on the verge of tears.
"It's just not fair." Tears ran down Catie's face. "I love him so much and it took like 6 years for me to realize that. It's not fair. We were meant to be together and now he's moving to New York City." Catie couldn't control her tears and was soon crying hysterically.
"Shh, it's okay. If you're right, than you have nothing to worry about. If you two were meant to be together, and it looks like you were, then you will be together some day"
"Really?" Catie asked through her tears.
"Of course, baby" her mom replied. "Now get to bed, you still have to go to school"
And with that, Catie kissed her mom good night and headed to her room. She fell fast asleep and didn't seem to dream at all.
When Jamie got home he was surprised to see his mom up. "Hey, what are you doing up?" he asked.
"James" she started and Jamie knew something had to be up, since his mom rarely called him James anymore. "I got an offer on the house today"
"So" Jamie replied, "isn't that the point when you sell a house?"
"Listen, I was offered twice what the house is worth"
"That's great, isn't it?"
"Well, the thing is, we have to be out by Sunday" She told him.
"WHAT?!" Jamie was in shock. "What do you mean Sunday? That's in 4 days!!!"
"I know, but we have to" she told him trying to calm her son down.
"Do Molly and Sami know? What about Peter?"
"Well, I haven't told Molly and Sami, and Peter is going to live in a dorm at UCLA"
"How can you do this to me?!!!! How can I possibly have everything ready to go in 3 days? Hell, I don't even want to go!" Jamie told her and stormed off toward his room.
Jamie's mom knew very well that this was not the time to be doing this to the family, but there was no choice with her husband dead.
Jamie slammed the door to his room shut, not caring if he woke his sisters. "Damn" he swore after he shut the door. He immediately layed down on his bed trying to forget all that was happening to him. 'C'mon, you know it's a good thing that you're moving' the little voice in his head told him. 'you know you don't belong here. You're a rebel, not a prep. Imagine, in New York, no more being the outcast. You'd fit in perfectly. Manhattan, Brooklyn, The Bronx, you could own those towns! Kingsport is so not your kind of place, filled with it's overachieving, rich preppies.' 'Shut up!' Jamie shouted mentally. But the voice continued, 'What's here for you anyway? You don't fit in. No one understands you' 'I have lots here!'he told the voice, 'I have the EMS squad and I of course have Catie. She understands me!' 'Puh-lease, the "goody-goody squad"? Remember you're only on that because of probation. Remember how you stole from the music store? There are tons of places in New York to do that. And you won't get caught will you? Oh yeah, Catie. Do you think she really understands you? What about when she goes to college? Will she still understand you?Are you two even gonna last till then? You never know, she could say it's over next week, then what are you going to do?' Jamie had enough with that voice. Maybe it's right. Maybe going to New York would be the best for me. But how on earth am I going to tell Catie that? How do I break it to her?
That's it for that one. I'm sorry I'm taking so long, been having so problems with my computer, but now it's fixed(I hope). Next chapter will be out soon. Once again, sorry it's so short.
