Chapter 4

Miguel

Miguel walked to Simone's house, trying to figure out why Reese and Jessica were mad at him. What could have made them not want to speak to him or even listen to his side of the story? Just what had Charity told them? Who would blame him for what he did, if they knew the truth? Even if he did love Charity, what she did was unforgivable. He had been hurt too many times to go through it once again.

Just as he lifted his hand to knock, Simone opened the door.

"Miguel, what are you doing here?" The raven-haired beauty asked, looking shocked.

"You mean you're still talking to me?" Miguel asked, equally shocked.

"Of course. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Never mind." Miguel stated "I'm looking for Kay."

"Kay isn't here." Simone snapped. "She got pissed at me and left. So, why did you and Charity break up?"

Miguel sighed. Someone was offering to hear his side of the story, but at the moment he didn't have time to go into details. "It's a long story. I got to find Kay. Do you know where she went?"

"No I don't Miguel. We aren't speaking to each other at the moment so..."

Great. It was bad enough that everyone else including him had turned his back on Kay. Now Simone had too. He really had to find her before she decided to do something stupid. Knowing his best friend she would do just that. Sometimes Kay had an irrational way of thinking.

"Look Simone. I got to go now. I'll see you later."

"But Miguel..."

"There's no time to talk now. I'll see you later."

With that Miguel turned on his heel and ran to the Bennett's house. He knocked twice; praying that Kay would answer the door. To his dismay, Charity did.

"Miguel, I knew you would be back." She said sweetly. "We need to talk."

"I didn't come to see you Charity." Miguel stated, with a sigh. "I'm looking for Kay."

"Miguel how could you? After what you have done to me?" Charity said a tear falling down her face. "We've been through so much..."

"Is Kay here or not?" Miguel interrupted. "I don't care what we have been through in the past; it's over Charity. There is nothing to talk about!"

"But Miguel...Love rules all."

"Whatever Charity. I'll be seeing you."

Before the blond could protest, he turned his back and walked out of the yard. Where could Kay be? If she wasn't at Simone's and she wasn't home, where was she? Maybe I'll try the park again, he thought frustrated.

Miguel ran as fast as he could to the park, but he didn't see Kay anywhere. Damn it, where was she? He turned to leave and saw a cab pulling out. Was that Kay in the back?

No it couldn't be, he decided. Why would Kay leave in a cab? He had to be seeing things. There was only one last place he knew to look and that was the cafe. Shivering in the cold he headed for his destination. He may not be in love with Kay but he did love her as a best friend and she was carrying his child. He needed to know that she was ok.

Unfortunately, Kay was not at the cafe. Depressed, Miguel sank down in a booth. Where could she be? He let his mind wonder back to all the fun that they had as kids. They could tell each other anything. And Kay was always there for him. Kay been their when his father and Antonio had disappeared. She had also been there when a girl he liked turned him down. Why had they lost their closeness? Had he neglected their friendship when he was dating Charity?

Miguel had no idea how long he had sat there but when he left it was dark. With a sigh, he decided to go home. He would get some sleep and talk to Kay first thing in the morning.

But an hour later when he was lying in bed he couldn't sleep. So many things were going through his head. Poor Kay, being pregnant, with false hope of love from him. And then there was Charity. He reflected back. Their relationship was doomed from the start. He was finally beginning to see that. From the first look he was hers, but then with Charity came some scary baggage. Baggage like witches, zombies, trips to hell, and worse, hurting Kay.

How could he have been so blind during this time? Suddenly he became aware that maybe his feelings for Kay were deeper than friendship. He pondered this idea for at least an hour longer before falling into a restless sleep.

Not long after he had fallen asleep, Luis and Pilar came into his room.

"Don't wake him Luis," She stated. "We can tell him tomorrow."

Luis sighed. "I guess you're right mama. But even if isn't in love with Kay; he is going to be upset that she has run away."

"You're right," Pilar said. "I just hope that he does right by her. All of you have been suffering so much and I don't know why."

"We will be fine mama. You raised us right. Now lets go before we wake him."

Silently they crept out of Miguel's room, hoping that Kay was safe, wherever she was.
