Shining Star

You know that I only own very few things, right? Like the mere title, plot, house, Kaitlyn Juliet, Marisa Alexandra, and Melanie Alesha.

April 17th, of 2006

-Lucy sat in Marie's car. The rain poured down making the day more gloomy than it already was. Kaitlyn sat asleep in her car seat in the back seat. Lucy stare out the window, the radio played a song softly in the background but Lucy ignored it. In less than 5 minutes Lucy would be in the courtroom. Taking a stand on how she thought that she should keep custody of little Katey. She sighed deeply as they pulled into the parking lot of the courthouse. She climbed out grabbing Katey's car seat and thanked Marie for the ride. She then entered the courthouse.

"Ms. Camden all custody of Kaitlyn Juliet Camden has been transferred to Mrs. Mary Catherine Rankin and Mr. Kyler Chase Rankin." The judge announced.

"What's that mean, mommy?" Chase asked his mother.

"It means that Katey is officially your sister." Mary told her son.

"What? How can you send her with this...this Jerk?" Lucy screamed. She couldn't believe her one pride and joy was being taken away just like that.

"Ms. Camden this is for the well being of your child. Have you no care for her well being?" The judge asked her.

"Her well being is with me...her mother! Hello?" Lucy shouted. She just ran out of the court, leaving Mary grinning happily. She ran down the street to who knows where when a car spun out of control and hit her. Knocking her down to the ground, unconscious.

-When Lucy woke up four days later, she saw Marie, and an unfamiliar face...well a few actually. –

"She's awake." A nurse that was checking Lucy's vital signs announced as she saw Lucy wake up.

"Ma'am are you okay? I witnessed it..." The man stopped when he noticed the woman's beauty.

"What happened?" Lucy asked. She looked over at the man who was talking to her, he was gorgeous.

"Well you ran out into the rain, I was a police officer on duty and was sitting at a stop light with my partner, Allison." The man started but stopped as he pointed to a woman sitting next to him.

"and?" Lucy asked.

"Well I looked over and you were running down the sidewalk, the ground was slippery and a car slipped out of control and hit you. By the way, I'm Kevin...Kevin Kinkirk." He finished and then introduced himself. This would be the beginning of a perfect relationship and a wonderful marriage.

-Lucy lay on the pull out couch of her new home. Everybody was reluctant to let her move out of Marie's home but new it would be for the best. And besides it was only a road away from Marie's, and 3 houses down from Kevin's apartment. It had 7 bedrooms, and 6 bathrooms with 15 acres of land. The biggest bedroom was hers, it had horse wall paper. The 2nd bedroom had blue walls. The third had pale yellow walls. The fourth had purple walls. The fifth had white walls. The sixth had navy walls and the seventh had pink walls. She had been home for a week and it had been about 2 ½ weeks since the accident. She had to get surgery on her right ankle, which was shattered, she also had a broken pinky finger and her big toe on her right foot was broken. She had a blue cast on her right ankle and was in crutches for a min. of 3 months and a max. of 6 months. She heard a knock on the door and 'it's kevin'.

"Come in!" Lucy shouted glad to have company for once.

"Hi Lucy." She heard Kevin's daughter, Marisa call. Kevin had two daughters, Marisa, she had light brown hair, and emerald eyes, she was 5. And Melanie, she had blonde hair, and bright ocean blue eyes, she was 3. The girls loved Lucy as their own mother. Their mother died when Marisa was 2 and Melanie was about 1 month old.

"Hi Girls," Lucy said smiling at the two. She loved them just as much as she had loved Katey.

"Great News." Kevin said as he entered the living room where he saw Lucy laying on the pull out couch as Kevin had instructed her and his two daughters sitting next to her.

"What?" Lucy asked.

"You are getting custody back of Katey...seems Mary was arrested when Katey was left unattended in the car for 45 minutes and nearly died of dehydration." Kevin announced.

"That's great...I mean about me getting custody of her again." Lucy said happily. The most important thing in her life was being returned to her.

"I will be picking her up at Montana Metro tomorrow morning at 7:35." Kevin said.

"We should go out and celebrate." Lucy announced.

"My treat." Kevin added.

A/N-What should happen at their celebration dinner? Have any ideas? Should they Elope or get engaged? Not sure what I am going to do yet. I brought Kevin in for you all. I had to bring Katey back in at the end of the chapter, I couldn't just leave Lucy without Katey.
