Chapter 3 ~~ Forgetful Love~~

Miguel didn't have any clue to where Kay was or where he could find her. It
was getting dark so he decided to go back to the Bennetts and see Charity, he
was hoping Kay would be there. He wanted to tell her he was sorry and wanted
to explain everything to her. He then headed off toward the Bennetts. He was
there in ten minutes flat. When he walked in he saw Reese and Charity in deep
conversation. He then thought they would make a cute couple. He scolded
himself,"What am I thinking? Charity's my girlfriend." His thoughts were
interupted by Charity. She was saying,"Miguel...Miguel." He answers,"
Yeah..huh..What?" Where were you just now, you had a funny loook on your
face!" she replied. "I was just thinking,"he said. She replied,"About what?"
"Nothing important, don't worry about it!" He said. "ok," Charity replied a
little cheery even for herself.
~~~~Miguel's Room~~~~
Kay couldn't get to sleep for anything, she couldn't get Miguel off her mind.
She says aloud,"Miguel I love you ,but why can't you love me!" It was quite,
it was like she was waiting for an answer but nothing came. She decided she'd
turn on the CD player he had and see what cd he had in. She turned on the Cd
and when she heard it she started crying. "Truly, Madly, Deeply"by Savage
Garden came on. It described how she felt about Miguel and that's the cd she
had gotten him for his 17th birthday last year. "He probably doesn't even
remember where he got the cd, he probably hasn't listened to it either." she
said aloud. She kept the song on repeat, she sang along everytime till she
fell fast asleep, and started dreaming.
~~~~~Dream~~~~~
Kay was going over to see Miguel for his 19th birthday. Kay was extremely
happy because they week before Charity and Miguel broke up because a rumor
went around that Charity slept with Mark Minners, he was the biggest playa in
school. Charity had admitted to sleeping with him. She begged Miguel to
forgive her. Miguel was hurt but he still broke up with Chairty because he
couldn't trust her anymore. The day after they broke up Miguel told Kay he
loved her and wanted to make love to her. She then entered his house and look
around and saw no one. She walked up to his room. When she walked into his
room she hadn't ever been hurt more than she was now. Miguel and Charity were
having sex. They didn't even notice she was in the room till she said
something. "Miguel," she said barely above a whisper. He looked over at her
and pushed Charity off of him. She looked at Charity who had a satisfied look
on her face, and just smiled at Kay. " Kay, I'm sorry about this, but I don't
....."he began but didn't finish. She started running down stairs and ran
smack into Luis. "Kay what's wrong?" he asked worriedly. Before she could
answer Miguel screamed,"KAY!" She turned around to see Miguel standing at the
end of the stairs in his boxers. "Kay, I'm sorry but I don't love you, I
never have atleast not romantically," he said guiltly and barely loud enough
for Kay to hear. Kay started crying even harder than she had before,"Miguel ,
How could you do this to me? After I gave you my virginity. You were
everything to me, then you just go and act like I'm nothing." she said
shaking her head. She was sad but furious but continued cryiing while she
talked. "YOU USED ME TO GET OVER HER DIDN'T YOU, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK?" she
screamed. He pondered in his thoughts, he couldn't lie to her she had been
his best friend till he ruined it, he probably just lost her. He replies,"
Yes, but I never meant to hurt you!" She replied," I never want to see or
talk to you AGAIN!" She then ran out of the house. Luis turned to Miguel and
said, " I'm disappointed in you little brother, I never thought you would
hurt the one who was your best friend and always there for you." He shook his
head in ashame.
~End of Dream~
Miguel had just got finished telling Charity nothing was wrong, he lied to
her but frankly he didn't care. He was to worried about Kay to worry that he
was lying to his girlfriend. He knew Kay told everybody she was strong but
deep down she was very vunerable. He had seen her hurt before and she
couldn't hold herself up well. He had hurt her bad and he knew she couldn't
hold up. He remember how she acted the last time she was hysterical.
~~~Flashback~~~
"Kay are you going to be ok?"Miguel asked concern crossing his face. "Oh, yes
Miguel it was no big dealy. My aunt Karen just died,"she replied
sarcastically. (Pause) "No, Miguel I won't be ok she was the only one who
cared about me." Kay replied sadly. She started crying and Miguel comforted
her. "She was always there for me when my mom wasn't. My mom and I have never
really gotten along. I was always her favorite, she always spoiled me instead
of Jessica!" she replied and some of her crying subsided. "Kay I promise
you'll was be my favorite out of your family, NO MATTER WHAT!" he said trying
to cheer her up. She looked up and smiled, "I know Miguel and Thanks!" she
said.
~~~End of Flashback~~~

Miguel then realized he had broken his promise to Kay. He chose Charity over
her. He had Kay practically his whole life. He felt like he was about to die.
He broke a promise to one of the people who cared about him the most. He was
torn out of his thoughts by charity again," Miguel...Miguel...Where have you
been?" she asked. "Huh ...no where," he said lying yet again. She asked," Oh,
yeah...Where'd Kay go?" still smiling her dumb smile. "I don't know , I never
found her,"he replied in a sad tone. Charity didn't notice the sad tome so
she continued,"I don't know what she got so worked up about, we only didn't
remember her birthday , it's not big deal." Miguel was shocked but very
angry. "Well...CHARITY, it is a big deal it's her 18th birthdayand her family
forgot and most importantly I forgot." he replied angrily. (pause) " You know
Chairty she never forgot about anything that had to do with my life and I
never forgot about anything in her life until you came along." he screamed.
Charity replies," I'm sorry Miguel." almost in tears.He replies in guilt,'
It's not your fault, I'm just mad about forgetting about her and I took it
out on you!" He hugged he to prove he was sorry for yelling. Then after a few
moments they seperated. They gave each other a kiss and as they pulled a part
the door opened. Charity thought to herself," I did a pretty job crying for
Miguel even though him yelling didn't bother me he's becoming a nuisance."
