A/N - Oh my stars! Holy apology! I can't believe how long it's been! For shame, I know...but tomorrow is my last day of school and then I'll only have to contend with work. I have missed this story soooo much...hoping you all have too, though you've probably completely forgotten it. I've been mad busy...went to a Dashboard Confessional concert (I met the singer of Motion City Soundtrack, aaaaah!!!) and have pulled three all-nighters to finish my end-of-the-year school crap. Okay, now that you know where I've been, I'm back! Let me know if I've still got it! LOL =)

(Kirsten's POV)

I can't believe this

My dad has been incarcerated for attempted murder,

And Sandy is happy

But

So am I

I just don't understand it

No normal, decent person would be happy to see her Daddy in prison scrubs

Then again,

How many normal and decent daddies try to kill teenaged boys?

And who the hell said my dad was normal or decent?

I feel kinda sorta obligated to talk to Julie

I am her only friend

That,

And I am dying to find out what she's going to do now

Guess that whole not-being-normal-and-decent thing wore off on me

I can't believe the baby is due in four months...

That's so soon

What if it really is Luke's?

Has anyone stopped to think about that

Besides Luke?

Well, Luke hasn't thought it, really...

He's crossed his heart with a fractured wrist

And sworn it
