Dancers Reunited: Chapter 6

(A.N--Omg! My biggest apollogies (sp?) to my readers! My computer crashed at the beginning of the summer and we're still trying to get it to work but I've finally been able to get on for at least an hour or so every day and finally was able to update! You guys must hate me for making you guys wait so long! Well lets not delay this chapter any longer! Oh! And I made it a little longer just for you guys! Love you all who have reviewed so far and thank you who ever reviews again for this chapter!)

Recap of Chapter 5:

"Javier wait!" Katy said, choking back a sob, trying to stop him.

"I'm sorry, I just need to get a grasp on things. I'll call you later."

As soon as the door was shut, Katy slowly let out a sob and fell to the floor her tears finally coming.

She had screwed everything up, Javier hated her, Areita still wouldn't have a father, and it was all Katy's fault.

So much for her happy ending.

ON WITH CHAPTER 6! (finally!)

Katy was walking through the forest at the park, but she couldn't remember why she was there but she knew that she was looking or waiting for someone...had she lost Areita again? Suddenly someone walked into the clearing from the right.

"Javier! What are you doing here?" she asked in surprise.

But..Javier just stared at her and said nothing.

She looked at him with her eyebrows raised.

"Javier?" she said, wondering why he wouldn't answer her.

Then Katy heard something coming closer to her from behind. She turned and gasped; it was the men who had attacked her two weeks ago.

The leader grinned evilly and suddenly his eyes went black and he bent to down as if he was going to pounce, she tried turning to Javier for help but the man jumped and tackled her to the ground and the others followed suit.

"Javier!" she gasped out, having the air knocked out of her she was finding it hard to breathe. "Please!" she continued, "Help me! Please!"

But he just stood there, face indifferent. And then Areita was there...holding Javier's hand.

Katy was so confused, what was going on; her thoughts were interrupted as she felt her face being slapped roughly to the side, her cheek burned.

Then suddenly Javier and Areita turned and began walking away from the scene in the clearing, away from Katy...

"No!" Katy screamed, her eyes welling up with tears. "No Javier! Areita! Don't leave me here! Please...help me!" she tried to yell but her voice slowly died to a whisper.

She closed her eyes, as the tears finally began to fall down her face.

"Mommy.." she heard Areita say quietly.

"Areita, please..come back.."

"Mommy!"

Her eyes snapped open.

She was lying on her bed...in her room. Her bedside lamp was on and as Katy slowly looked around, she realized that the scene that had taken place at the forest clearing had all been a dream.

She went to wipe the sleep out of her eyes and realized that her face was wet with tears.

"Mommy?"

Katy looked to her right and saw Areita standing there with tears slowly flowing down her face.

"Oh Rita.." Katy whispered, realizing she must have woken up her daughter.

The so mentioned toddler let out a sob and jumped into her mother's arms, wrapping her arms around Katy's stomach.

"Did I scare you sweetie?" Katy asked quietly.

Areita just nodded into Katy's chest.

Katy sighed sadly, "I am sorry sweetheart, mommy is fine; she just had a little nightmare."

Areita looked up at her suprised.

"Grown-ups have bad dreams too?" she asked, shocked and curious.

Katy let out a small smile.

"Yes, grown-ups have bad dreams."

"Were you scared?"

Katy frowned, "Yes I was scared.."

"Why?" was the little-one's reply.

Katy smiled and almost rolled her eyes, curse God for making toddlers so curious...

She thought for a moment before responding.

"I was scared because I thought I was going to lose you."

Areita's eyes went wide.

"Oh yeah.." she whispered. "That would be kinda scary, I wouldn't want to lose you either mommy..You don't have to be afraid anymore though. It was only a bad dream and it wasn't real. You don't have to be scared anymore."

And with that Areita hugged her mother and mother did the vice versa.

And as they lay there both Mother and Daughter slowly dozed and fell asleep.

The next week went by alot easier for Katy after that night with Areita.

She felt so much before happier and at ease.

Work was going quite well for her as well; Katy's boss had seen tat she had been improving alot and decided to premote her to one of the managers of the maids which also included a small raise. That night her and Areita had gone out to dinner and had had alot of fun.

Almost everything was going good for Katy; well except for one thing: ever since Javier had stormed out of the house 3 weeks ago he had not called nor come calling...at all.

She missed her love terribly, and she knew that she need Javier in her life and so did Areita. She wanted and needed a father to be there for here. Just like Katy's dad had always been there for her.

But Katy knew (though she didn't like to admit it) she couldn't make Javier love her or their daughter...it was something he had to do on his own.

Two weeks later Katy was walking up to her apartment and smiled as she heard Areita giggle from inside their living quarters where Maria (her landlord) would look after Areita every day and prepare a dinner for them, which she usually stayed for.

But Katy was snapped out of her thoughts as she heard her daughter let out another spill of giggles.

She always loved hearing Areita's laugh.

Katy opened the front door and smiled; "What's going on in here?" she called out. "Is there a monkey loose in the house!"

"Mommy!" she heard Areita squeal and the pounding of the feet as Areita came bounding into the room and into her mother's arms.

Katy let out a laugh and looked down at her angel's beaming face.

"What have you been up to today?" She asked and she let go of Areita and took off her coat.

"I played with Mr. Swarez today! He's really good at making up fun games to play!"

Katy, who had been in the process of taking off her shoes, froze.

"Who sweetheart?" she asked not yet believing that she had heard her daughter right.

Her daughter giggled.

"Don't you remember mommy? The man who found me in the park?"

Katy nodded. But looked up sharply. "But where is Maria, Areita?"

"In the kitchen making dinner." She answered simply.

Katy shook her head, she had to have a talk with her landlord about letting certain people into the house...

Areita was confused, why didn't her mother remember him?

She cocked her head to the side confused at her mother's reaction.

Areita's head suddenly snapped up and she grinned.

"I know! I'll go get him!"

And before Katy could stop her, Areita bolted into the other room.

Katy slowly turned towards the doorway that lead to the living and looked up, not sure what was going to happen...

TBC!
