Molly had quickly become the best friend I never had

Molly had quickly become the best friend I never had. In the past I had people I called best friends, but compared to Molly and I's friendship they was not. We had the same love of life, liked and hated the same things. It was like our brains were whirred to work together. But I must admit there as been several times I was jealous of her. She has the looks, the talent, and the fans. I was always in the background; never getting any credit for the work I did that built them into super stars. I would never dream of raining on her parade, my destiny I suppose was to remain behind the curtains.

Rick was a great guy, very smart and talented, but I didn't like him. I'm sorry but there was something that rubbed me the wrong way with him. He could be very arrogant and had a need to be in control a lot of times. People describe me as the same way, so perhaps we just had power struggles with one another. I mean I could easily sit in the same room with Rick, laugh and have a good time. But the moment I'm out of the room I'd roll my eyes and mutter under my breath, comments I rather not repeat. It was just him and me that didn't get along. And bickering never caused any trouble for my husband or his wife; at least I don't think so.

PK decided to call it quits, well for a while at least. Rick and Molly wanted to see what "normal" life was like for a while. Carey was now two a half and no longer a perfect child. More like a typical child with "Me!" "Mine!" that they all seem to do. I was excepting another one, and the pregency had been pretty rocky. Some bleeding, cramping, high blood pressure, a real nightmare. By the time I was 32 weeks I was put on 24-hour bed rest. Do you have any idea how hard it is to stay in bed with a toddler running around? So I wasn't exactly upset when my water broke at 36 weeks. Sure it was 4 weeks early, but far enough long that there won't be any complications. And there were none, he was actually healthier then Carey was born right on time. Funny how things like that can happen. We named him Cluette Hogan Bell. No particular reason for this one, we just wanted an unusual name that started with a C to match his brother*s* and to have the middle name start with Ho-something.

The day after the band decided they would go back to the studio and the road Molly found out she was pregnant. I didn't even know they were trying or anything. Judging by their reactions of the news, they were happy but very shocked. The baby would be pretty close to Clu's age and I hoped they would become friends. I was done having kids. After you lose a child and have a difficult time carrying another to term you don't want to go through that again. So it was decided that the Bell's would be a 4 member family, but with Celestain always close to Ned and I's hearts.

Evelyn came back to town. She was married to some German guy that could barely speak English. Hans (her husband) had been multi-million movie star in European flicks, but was a nothing state side. The way Evelyn meet him was she decided to try her hand at managing movie and TV stars not just musicians. They feel in "love". Actually Hans feel for her, and Evelyn feel for his pocket book. I don't really much more, because frankly I have never given a damn to find out the details. All I knew was Evelyn would do anything to get what she wanted.
