Hello, I'm debating whether I should keep writing, because I'm not sure how many people are actually reading my story. I have the whole story planned out and this truly is just the beginning. I planned to keep writing until the next season starts and finish it then. (End of October)
So if you want me to keep writing please tell me so in a Review or a Post/Reply
Chapter 13 – Nothin' A Drink Can't Cure
The soft kiss from Jimmy's to Hailey's lips slowly became harder, their passion more intense as the kiss became deeper and deeper. There hands running up and down there partners body.
"You are so amazing," Jimmy whispered into Hailey's ear, so soft she almost didn't hear.
"I know," She whispered back, laughing into the kiss.
The kiss lingered in the living room and was broken by Jimmy suddenly lifting Hailey off the ground, both their face smiling with excitement. He carried her a few steps toward the bedroom before setting her down, her feet lightly touching the lush carpet.
"Do we have time," he asked, a serious look on his face.
Hailey smiled as she grabbed Jimmy's tie, pulling him through the bedroom door and lightly pushing him on the bed, then turned, and closed the bedroom door.

As Sandy and Kirsten entered the kitchen, which was sparkling clean from Theresa's experience in cleaning. Kirsten looked over at Ryan, who had a dim smile on his face. It was a big improvement from his brooding look he had had when she left the kitchen.
"So Ryan, are you two spending the night?" Kirsten asked, hoping the answer would be yes.
Ryan's smile grew a bit at the invitation.
"I do need to work tomorrow, a shift at 4:00pm, but I think we can, if that's all right with Theresa of course.
"No that's great," Theresa said, "It's not like it would be the first time."
"Well I'll go make up the pool house. Ryan you can bunk with..."
There was silence for moment before Kirsten finished.
"Ryan, you can sleep in Seth's bed."
They stared at Kirsten for a second, wondering if she had finished. Kirsten started to talk, but quickly turned in tears. She missed her boys so much.
"Why don't we go get the pool house ready," Theresa said, trying to brighten the mood.
Kirsten turned, her eyes still lightly watering.
"The sheets are in the..."
"I know," Ryan smiled.
"He did live with us for a while," Sandy laughed, kissing the top of his wife's head.

The limo rolled to a stop in front of an obviously very expensive restaurant.
The driver sprinted to the door, making sure to open it for the ice queen, not wanting another long, swearing lecture. He was tempted to swerve into upcoming traffic.
Julie climbed out of her limo first.
"See your job is to open the door and drive, it's not that complicated is it.
The driver bit his tongue, holding back how he felt about Mrs. Nickel.
"No it's not complicated." Should have done the upcoming traffic thing, the driver thought to himself.
Marissa and Caleb's eyes met again, at Julie's confrontation with the driver, laughing inside and feeling sorry for the man. To have Julie Nickel mad at you was not a good thing.
Marissa ran ahead, to the door of the restaurant, opening it for her fast approaching mother.
"Thank you," Caleb said, as he and Julie entered though the open door.
She had to be nice at supper tonight, overly nice, a true proper lady, ass kissing nice, because she hadn't asked if she could ditch the rest of family night and head to the Cohen's to see Ryan. She new she would be going over there no matter what her mother said. Nothing could keep her from seeing Ryan. They had talked on the phone a lot, mostly about her, a common interest as Summer would say. Ryan would just start to open up to her, when Theresa would walk into the room, halting all deep conversation. She had never once asked Ryan about Theresa, way to scared to find out the truth. So she lived in doubt, fear, fear of losing Ryan to Theresa.
"Thank you miss," a lady said, as she and her elderly, rich husband walked through the restaurant door, which Marissa still held opened.
"Ya, no problem," She said, a little shaken, not knowing how long she been standing there, holding the door open for passers by.
--
"Were going to be late," Jimmy called into the bathroom.
"Well, Jimmy should I go to the restaurant naked."
Jimmy smiled, pondering the question.
"Well, no, no better not."
"You can wait for me in the car, I won't be long," Hailey called as she slipped the left shoulder strap of her bright red dress back over her shoulder.
She looked like hell, she thought to herself before reaching for her purse and grabbing her makeup bag.
Jimmy sat in the car, waiting, and waiting. He had been waiting so long he was surprised when Hailey opened the car door.
"I'm ready."
""I would hope so," Jimmy laughed and backed out of the driveway.
--
Marissa pulled out a chair and gestured her mother to sit. She did so, and looked at Caleb with worried eyes.
Julie raised an eyebrow.
"Why are you being so nice," She asked suspiciously.
"I just like it because it bugs you," She said in a joking tone.
Julie began to speak, but was cut off by the waiter.
"What can I get for you?" He asked.
Julie turned her head, "Did you know you just cut me off!"
Poor waiter, Marissa thought to herself, poor, poor waiter.
--
Jimmy's car rolled up to the parking lot of an obviously very expensive restaurant.
Hailey's face turned cold, she hated these rich, expensive, snob places. She had to live with them all her life, the first day she ran away from home she had discovered the goodness of fast food and she would take that over this any day.
"We can hit the food court in the mall after, if you want," Jimmy said, as if reading Hailey's mind.
The two exited the car and headed for the door.
--
Marissa, who would have been the only one to notice Jimmy and Hailey's entrance into the restaurant, sat eating, in deep eternal thought.
Jimmy and Hailey's were seated so Julie's back was at a slight angle towards Hailey an Jimmy was angled so he was look directly at his date, unable to see who was behind them.
"Mom," Marissa spoke, "I'm going to go to the Cohen's after dinner."
"Why," Julie responded, coldly.
"Because I was invited."
"Is that Ryan boy going to be there?"
"Yes," Marissa said strongly.
Julie and Marissa's eyes were now locked, anger spewing from both.
"Then your not going!" Julie yelled, loud enough to draw Hailey's attention from her conversation with Jimmy.
--
"What's wrong Hailey?" Jimmy asked.
"Nothing, I just heard the call of a Bitch, gold digger."
"What is Julie here," Jimmy laughed as Hailey leaned in so she could hear the conversation between Julie and who she now new was Marissa.
--
"I am going," Marissa said, sharply back at her mother.
--
You go girl, Hailey thought to her self and smiled.
--
"No your not!" Julie's face cold and angry.
"Mom, I love him."
Julie froze, slightly stunned before shrugging it off.
--
Hailey froze, slightly stunned Marissa was in love!
--
"No your not in love with him," Julie cringed at the words, "He has you confused."
Marissa rolled her eyes. "Mom he's not a hypnotist, he's Ryan and I love him!"
Julie's eyes glanced at Caleb, who was clearly staying out of this.
"You're not going over there!" She yelled, catching the attention of the entire restaurant.
Marissa stood, "Are you going to stop me."
Julie stood angrily and screamed, "Yes, I am!"
"No your not!" Hailey yelled as she stood and flung around meeting Julie face to face.
"Oh, hi honey," Caleb said, with a smile.
"She is going to see Ryan," Hailey said, right in Julie's face.
Julie pushed forward, so Hailey had to backup so Julie wasn't directly in her face. "You're not her mother, stay the hell out of this!"
"Sorry, I don't think so. Do you remember the last time you weren't such a bitch?"
Julie gasped, as the whole restaurant turned, to face the two women fighting. "What did you just call me?"
"A cold hearted bitch, because that's what you are, and if you would open your eyes and look around you would see that that's how people look at you, they don't see you as a friend, you're an enemy! I don't know if you were always like this, who knows, maybe somewhere under the ice queen act, there might be a real loving person!"
Julie stood staring at Hailey, fully aware of the staring eyes. Tears slowly dripped from Julie's eyes. Her hand lifted slightly before slapping Hailey across the face. Hailey stunned.
"Don't you ever talk to me like that ever again! I've gone through hell and I finally found a place where I'm not serving others and people respect me! You've had your life given to you by daddy! You have no idea what I've had to do, to go thorough, to get as far as I have. I grew up in hell and have never stopped working. Just when I think it's safe, it isn't!
Both Caleb and Jimmy shifted in their seats.
"Well I'm sorry your life has been so complicated. Marissa is coming with me, were going to see Ryan!" Hailey turned to Marissa, "Lets go."
Marissa walked a few steps towards the door, as Jimmy handed Hailey the keys.
"Don't you leave," Julie yelled, as they drew closer to the door.
"Watch us!" Hailey said, as she and Marissa left the restaurant.
Julie stood by her table, the large supper crowd staring at her.
"What the hell are you looking at!" she yelled, the people turned their heads away. She briskly walked to the exit and towards her fast approaching white limo.
Caleb and Jimmy stood from their tables, ignoring the quick glances from the crowd.
"Come on Jimmy," Caleb spoke, "I'll buy you a stiff drink, God knows we both need it."
