~Chapter 5~

Theresa sat down on the bench in the park. "You can go play but stay where I can see you." She said and the kids ran off.

"This is something I thought I would never see again."

Theresa turned around and was shocked to see Ethan standing behind her. "What's that's?" She asked.

"You in Harmony again." He said and sat down next to her.

"I'm advising you now that I can't promise I'll be nice."

"You don't have to be. If you were then I would be shocked."

"Well that's me. I'm always shocking people right, Ethan?" She said sarcastically.

"Theresa…"

"What? If you came here to say you are sorry and you wanted me to forget it, then leave. I am not ready to pick up where we left off. I still cannot believe you have the nerve to even talk to me. If it wasn't for you, I would not of have to leave."

"I know."

 "I don't care so stop saying that. Ethan, I should actually thank you. If it wasn't for you I would never have realized how strong I can be and that I don't need you."

"You don't?"

"No, I was fine with out you. I will always be."

Ethan got up. "Well if you don't need me in your life then I'll leave." Then he walked off and did not look back because his heart had just been broken. ~ Ethan and Theresa were sitting on his bed in his room making out. They stopped.

"Ethan?"

 "Yeah?"

 "When are we going to tell your family and mine we're engaged?"

 "Why do you want to tell them so badly?"

"Why don't you?"

"I just don't think it's the right time…"

 "Come on…" She grabbed his hand and led him downstairs.

 "Momma, Mrs. Crane, Mr. Crane, Sheridan, Luis…"

"What are you doing?" Ethan asked worried.

Everyone came in the room. "What are you screaming about?" Everyone asked.

"I have an announcement to make."

Ethan tried to plead with her.

"We're engaged."

Ethan slipped his hand of hers and turned to leave.

"Ethan? Is this true?" Ivy asked.

 "No mother."

Theresa looked at him shocked.

Luis looked at Theresa with stern eyes.

 "I'm sorry Mrs. Crane." Pilar said. She grabbed Theresa's arm. "Let's go home, Theresa." Theresa looked at Ethan pleading with him but all he did was turn around and go to his room.

"Theresa, this time you're gone to far…" Luis said. ~ Theresa let a tear slide down her face and go the kids and went home.

            Kay went to the door and put down the sponge. She opened the door. "I'll be with you in a little bit…." She looked up and was shocked to see Miguel standing in the doorway. "Is there something I can help you with?" Kay said sarcastically.

Miguel closed the door and walked in. "Can't we talk?"

 "Are you a paying customer?"

 "No."

"Then no." She headed to the back on the B&B.

He followed. "I just want to talk to you. Can I?"

She turned around and faced him. "No, Miguel you gave up that right a long time ago."

"I'm sorry."

 "For what?"

 He did not say anything.

"You don't even know. Maybe because you didn't tell me bye or because you never wrote me."

"You never wrote me either."

"I did but I didn't send it because I knew that holding on to a friend that was letting go was pointless so I never sent it."

"I wasn't letting go."

"Right. Then what do you call it?"

He did not say anything.

"Miguel, if you're finally realizing that you want the position of my best friend back you can go. Your sister has already filled the position."

"Theresa? But she's so…" 

"Don't even start. Just go Miguel and I would advise you no to come back."

He looked at her shocked. Then he left.

 "And he does not even know he's the reason I left. ~ Miguel and Charity were walking home hand and hand Kay was following behind. They had not even noticed her. There had to be some way to get his attention. Kay thought. Kay saw a skate that was in the middle of the sidewalk. That's is she thought. She ran ahead of them and stepped on the skate acting like she ahs fallen. She started to scream. "Ow! Ow! I am hurt! Help!" No one came. She looked around and was shocked to see Charity lying on the sidewalk a little further back. She got up and walked over to where they were. Charity was bleeding from her head. "What happened?" She asked.

"You!" Miguel said.

"You pushed that stupid skate at her and caused her to fall and hit her head."

 "No, I didn't."

 Jessica spoke up. "Just like you didn't make the fish guts and the nightmares."

Miguel looked at her. "You did all that?"

She did not say anything.

He looked away. "Jessica, go get your mother and father. Kay just go." ~ She held back all of her many tears and shut down the B&B.
