'My Girl'
'Chapter 2'
It was a few hours later, and Kristy & Bart had finally managed to convince Katie to go to bed. Katie had her own room, That was next doors to Kristy's. As Kristy turned Katie's nightlamp, She glanced around the room.
It had been decorated, The 6th month of Kristy's pregnancy, Kristy had become pregnant, When she was 14 In September. She turned 15, In June the 1st to be exact. Katie had been in the world for two months and a bit by then.
She gazed around the room. Kristy, Elizabeth & Nanny had all decided it had to be practical, and it would have to last a good couple of years.
They'd picked something perfect.
The room was a strong yellow, With a heart boarder, In these big hearts was different patterns, So in one there was pink & white plaid. In one there was green flowers, etc.…
Then the bottom of the wall had been painted green. They'd brought the matching dresser, Curtains, Lampshade, Cushions & Bed cover.
Now looking around it Kristy decided it was very practical Katie loved it.
As they walked out the door, and Kristy shut the door softly, Bart kissed her on the lips.
She pushed him away furious. What was he doing?
'What the hell are you playing at' she whispered furiously
'Things have been going so well recently, I thought maybe you know we could start again' Bart said
For a minute the question hung in the air.
He wanted to start again?
Suddenly Kristy was overcome with emotion
But then she stopped herself.
'No… Don't do this to me Bart' she said tearfully 'I can't trust you as a boyfriend, You hurt me so much last time, It took me months for my heart to recover'
'Kristy' he said as he held her 'I love you… My feeling haven't gone away… Kristy I promise I won't hurt you again, I was such a jerk before. But I promise you & Katie are the most important people in my life, Please Kristy think about it'
'Bart… I can't do this… Not to Katie and not to me, Katie was so hurt and confused when we broke up'
' Yes but thing about how Katie would feel if we were back together' Bart said
'And think about Katie would feel if we broke up… Again, We can't mess around with her feelings, She's a person, Our little girl. And we owe it to her to not hurt her'
For a minute there was silence. The only contact. Being Bart & Kristy starting into each other eyes
'Bart I'm going to bed' she said finally
She walked to her room, lay on her bed and sobbed
Kristy woke up groggily; Her alarm clock told her it was 3:00 am. Kristy moaned. She was still in her clothes. She'd managed to cry herself to sleep.
She decided to change into her football jersey, Which she then did.
But when she got back into the red covers of her bed. And tossed and turned a bit, She knew she couldn't sleep. Her & Barts kiss replayed in her head. And she couldn't pause it
She punched her pillow in frustration.
Why did he do this?
He was right everything had been going perfect, They were getting on. And so that immediately is come on sign for him? That gave him the right to kiss her like nothing had changed?
She knew that she wouldn't sleep now. So she got out of bed, And walked down the stairs, and tried to keep quite.
'Kristy'
Kristy jumped a mile, She was helping herself to a glass of apple juice
'Mom, I'm sorry did I wake you?'
'Yes, You did' Elizabeth said softly, She sat down at the table
'I guess you kind of want to know what I'm doing here at 3am in the morning huh?'
'Yes'
Kristy sat down at the table opposite her mother
'Bart came down the stairs looking, Well I can't describe the way he looked, Sad, Hurt, Angry, And I wondered if it had anything to do with you? Especially since you didn't come down after putting Katie to bed, Watson and I wondered what you were doing, Then Bart cornered me into the kitchen, And told me you might be a bit upset but he wouldn't tell me why, I went to your room, And you were asleep'
Kristy took and deep breath and blinked a few times
'Bart kissed me'
Elizabeth smiled sadly at Kristy
'Okay'
'He wants to get back together with me, And I told him that I don't trust him as a boyfriend… Because I don't and I went to my room'
'And why did you cry?'
'Because there's this half of me that has been waiting for this since Cokie, And there's this half of me that just doesn't want to know and I got so confused, Mom he hurt me so badly when he did…. What he did.. I thought he was the one. We have a little girl together and I thought he was more mature.'
Kristy and her mum talked for hours, Then Elizabeth shocked Christie, but telling her a secret that only she and Watson and Kristy's real dad knew.
'For years I told people the reason why Patrick left, Telling them that he just disowned us… And he wanted other things… And it's true he did, But there was always another part that I was ashamed to say, One day I was about 8 months gone with David Michael, I'd gone to a work party , Just a little party, I only went because I had to go for appearance's sake. But anyway. Charlie & Sam were at different friends' houses, And you were sleeping, I came back as early as I could because was extremely exhausted. And I caught your father in bed with another woman, I was devastated, I couldn't handle it. I screamed at him, That he was a dad. And he finally admitted that he didn't want the family life, He wanted to be somebody else. I chucked him out, Because every day I looked at him, , I remembered that scene in my head, The thing that hurt me most was that Patrick didn't even apologise for his behaviour, It was almost like he wanted me to catch him with that women, So he could use it as an excuse and get out'
Kristy was shocked. Patrick was a cheater?
'So then he moved away, Which was why I was so angry when he suddenly phoned you up to invite you to his wedding with Zoey'
Kristy didn't know what to say
'All I'm saying is unlike Patrick, Bart wants to make another go at it. And I know what he did as wrong, And I know how it feels to be cheated on, But at least have a real think about this okay?' Don't always focus on the bad things, Focus on the good too'
And with that Elizabeth Brewer walked back upstairs
'Right' Kristy thought to herself 'The good things, Not the bad'
///FLASHBACK///
It was Claudia's Birthday party, Katie was 2 years and a month old, and her mother & Watson kindly offered to baby-sit. Claudia had been given a karaoke machine, A special CD's, So that when you put the music on, The words came up on screen.

But any way, Claudia had put on the invitations that it would be formal wear and formal wear only, Each invited person was allowed to invite one guest. Kristy had invited Bart, Her boyfriend for a month.
Everyone looked fabulous, Boys wearing suits, Or girls wearing dresses. Kristy had been worried, She couldn't afford a new dress, or outfit, Every penny she got went straight to Katie and her upbringing.
But Claudia & Stacey, Had let her borrow their clothes, And know she wore a simple red dress, With black shoes with a heel, Her makeup simple, And her hair, Lose around her shoulders, She looked terrific, Bart told her
Pop music, Fast & Slow had been blaring out of the stereo for about 3 hours, When Claudia got up on stage and announced Karaoke would be starting, There had been a sheet on the way in that had asked people to sign up, So they could get everyone done, And what song they would pick.
Claudia & Stacey, The best singers out of their friends, Kristy always thought sung Avril Lavigne's Complicated, Stacey wearing a white bustier and a baby blue long skirt looked sensational, She'd got a bit of lipgloss on, And some mascara but that was it. Claudia who had been to hair salon, had finally managed to persuade her mum and dad for purple, Pink and blue highlights in her black hair. She looked fabulous. She'd wore a strapless back dress, And left her hair down, Which had also been cut in to her shoulders. She'd worn purple lipfinity and black mascara.
Mary- Anne had worn a cute pink clingy dress, and Dawn had worn a hot pink boob tube, With a black long skirt.
And then Stacey had sung 'Stay With Me Tonight' by Abby Stevenson!
Yes the girl who claimed she could only sing in one note F, Had really been lying, In fact she'd sung for the girls at a sleepover, When the girls were 13, They'd all be shocked. She had the voice of an angel. And when Connecticut FM, Had launched a competition, To find an unknown person and get them a record deal. Abby was really shy, About her voice. She wanted it to be a secret. She just wanted to be a normal teenage girl. But the girls had secretly sent in he tape they'd secretly recorded it when Abby didn't know. And writing a letter to join the tape, explaining that they'd had to secretly record her talent.
When Abby was claimed the winner, They found that out on a Monday at 5:45, BSC Meeting time
She decided after a lot of persuasion to go for it. She'd had her debut single 'Stay With Me Tonight'
In the USA Chart Number one position for 6 weeks, Then she conquered the UK, She'd just released her 4th album 'I want to make you go wild' She'd gone for a new raunchy look.
Jessi hadn't come since the BSC had been disbanded, and Mallory was at boarding school.
That's when Claudia had announced Kristy & Bart were up. Which was a total shock. But as much as she hated to let Bart know, She'd really enjoyed herself, and everyone said as they'd sung 'You're The One That I Want' they could feel the chemistry between the two. That made Kristy blush!
/// Flashback/////
Kristy smiled that memory was so fresh, It was like it happened yesterday. And then she remembered more times together.
She remembered the time when her & Bart and Katie ad gone to the park for a picnic
Or when Katie & her dad sent Kristy the 'Best Mommy' certificate
But then she remembered the bad thing that had happen that had broke her heart
//// Flashback///
Kristy was at the one of the popular girls parties , Bart had said he'd had to go somewhere with his dad so he'd meet her at house steps , He'd said that he'd be meeting her at 7:00 p.m., And it now was 8:30 and she was furious, His phone was off.
That's when she saw Stacey and Claudia, Before they saw her. They were walking from the backgarden
'Did you see Bart & Kristy making out in the garden' Claudia said
'Yeah' Stacey laughed 'I've never seen them that heavy before'
'She even moaned his name' Claudia said giggling 'It was a bit high pitched thought, I guess Kristy was a bit into it'
That's when Kristy walked out in front of them . For a minute Claudia and Stacey looked confused
'Hey Kristy, How did you do that' Stacey said amazed
'That was some making out you were doing girl' Claudia said
Then Kristy shook her head, Her eyes filed with tears
'Are you sure it was Bart' she said almost choked
It suddenly dawned on Claudia & Stacey that they'd seen Bart, But not with the right girl
'Oh my lord Kristy I'm so sorry, I just presumed it was you, It's definitely him' Claud said slowly almost choked herself, She knew how much Kristy loved him
Kristy suddenly ran to the backgarden
It couldn't be him? He loved her or he said he did
That's when she saw them. Saw him
As she walked closer, They were oblivious to anyone 2 miles away from them, In their own little place. Just like Bart & Kristy's kisses were
She was right in front of them when Bart saw Kristy there.
'Oh god' he said as he jumped up, He swayed a bit, but stayed upright
The person who he was kissing stood up then, With a satisfied smirk on her face.
Cokie.
By that time people had heard that a dude had been kissing Cokie, While dating Kristy
So there was a crowd
'I thought you loved me' Kristy said as she turned away, but then suddenly she spun round facing Bart and kicked him. Right where it hurts. Bart winced in pain
'If you think that hurts, Then you're feeling just a bit of hurt I'm feeling right now, Not only did you betray me with that piece of scum, But you told me for the fast time 3 hours ago that you were crazy about me'
Then she slapped Cokie, and it made her feel so good.
'I never want to see you again' was Kristy's last words as she left the garden in a blurry of tears
//// Flashback/////
'Could I really trust him again? Kristy thought to herself
Kristy didn't know, but for know she was going to bed, and then her & Bart were going to have a big talk.
Because if they were going to be a couple again, She needed to know if she could be heading for heartbreak again
