Chapter 8- Questions

I was home with Mia. She was about 3 weeks old now, her hair growing like there was no tommorow and she was starting to look more and more like me. I was happy though. It was like ten now and Craig said he was going to be home by eigt, Craig and I where getting more and more distant since Mia was born. anyway I called his cell phone, and just like that day, no answer. I walked over to Jimmy's to see if he knew what was going on. Hazle opend the door.

"Hi Manny"

"Hi Hazle"

"Can I see the baby?" she asked

"Sure"

I handed her the baby

"Is Jimmy home?" I asked

"Yeah " she said "He's in the computer room"

I walked into the computer room.

"He Jimmy" I said

"hey Manny"

"Do you know where Craig is" I asked

"No..isn't he at work?" he answerd

" I don't know, it's just he said he'd be home by eight and now it's ten."

"He should be home any minuet then" he said

"Ok"

I grabbed Mia from Hazle and left. Mia finally fell aslep and Craig walked in the door at one. I was still waiting for him on the bed.

"Craig where were you." I asked

"Spinner and I went out for some drinks."

"Alcholic drinks? Craig your 16 how can you be drinking?"

"It wasn't alcholic don't worry mother."

"Mother what are you talking about?"

"Lets get married " he exclaimed

"What?"

"See, what happend to Manny. If it was the Manny I fell in love with she would have said yes, atomaticly, not this mom Manny" he exclaimed

"Craig I'm sorry" I said "Yes, I'll marry you"

He sat on the bed and gave me a kiss.

"I knew you loved me still."

"It's just the babies never sleaping, I'm just crabby."

"I love you Manny"

I gave him a hug. He smelled weird, he smelled like perfume not my perfurme but a really cheap perfume, there was something that looked like a hicki on the back of his neck.

"Craig are you cheating on me?" I asked

"No why would I cheat on you?" he asked

"Because, you have a hicki on your neck" I said pointing to the back of his neck

"I burned my self at work with a hot dish." he answred

"Oh" I replied

"God Manny, we can't have any love if we don't have any trust."

"I know Craig."

"I might as well just leave"

"No Craig please don't leave" I said while giving him a kiss "Because then I won't have anyone to make another baby with."

I took off his jacket and started massaging his back he bent his bed back and I started kissing him on the neck...and then....and then...the baby woke up.

Authors Note-

Guess what 3 days before my birthday I sent a letter to Cassie Steele asking her to please singn a picture for me for my thirteenth birthday and this was like you know three months ago. So today wich is January 8, I am doing this play thing at the North Hennipen Community College Cinderella but anyway so at the end my mom comes to me and is like guess what. I had no clue what she was talking about so she opens this envolope and hands me a picture. I had no clue who it was becuase I wasn't expecting it and she looked diffrent, and she was like all Cassie Steele. I was so happy I almost started crying. I mean I was running all over the stage. Now the picture is like attached to me. I don't think you guys care that much, but I think it was really cool. It came with a letter too. They wanted me to tell everyone her CD comes out March 2005 and you have to get it. Well anyway yeah. I thought that was cool. You know since she's my favorite actress, and my screan names all involve her name. so yeah.

love you much,
