Oh, I'm so tired. I spent the night at my friend's house on Tuesday night, and we stayed up until 6:00 a.m. Wednesday morning. And then we got up at 10:00 a.m. We spent the whole night acting all paranoid because the house across the alley behind her house has just one light on, and the thing is, nobody lives there. Me and my friend were outside all day, so we didn't see anybody go inside. The light was never on before, so there's really no explanation. And this morning, the light was off and the curtains were closed. Weird, huh? We also spent part of the night hitting each other with plastic spatulas (don't ask why), and pouring water in our belly buttons and then hitting each hitting each other with our spatulas once again to see if the water would spill out. (Again, don't ask why, we're really psycho sometimes.) Okay, on with the story now.

Unexpected

Chapter 11

Libby's POV

The first time I went in the bathroom was hard enough, but when Jimmy made me go in the second time, I pratically lost it. I was mad at Jimmy and Cindy, because their acting like childish immature brats, and I was confused because I walked out of the bathroom and saw Jimmy standing with Michelle and Sheen.

All the memories from the past came back and hit me hard. I guess I had been avoiding them lately. I was kinda glad to get away, and I needed to think. And Cindy really needed some comforting, so there was a good excuse to get out of the room. You're probably wondering about what happened the first time I went in the bathroom to see her, so here is what went down:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I strode quickly to the bathroom door and pushed it open. "Cindy?"

She was sitting on the bathroom counter, her head in her hands. She wasn't sobbing, but I knew she was crying. She never sobbed, it's actually kinda weird. She looked up at the sound of my voice and said, "Libby? What are you doing here?"

I smiled slightly and sat on the counter next to her. "I was going to see my cousin, but she's in AFRICA!" I suddenly waved my arms in a frustrated motion. It still made me mad that she wasn't home.

She laughed. "I'm guessing that she didn't tell you?" I shook my head. She wiped her tears away, but her eyes were still red and puffy. Her rubbing only seemed to be making it worse, so I grabbed a paper towel and wiped her eyes for her.

"Girl, you know I'm here for you. But you also gotta know that crying over him ain't gonna help too much. Even though it seems like you really need it."

We both laughed again. "Thanks." She said. We hugged and she sniffed.

"Omigod, he probably hates me now! But he probably hated me before for not talking to him for seven years. But that's so not my fault! I mean, he cheated on me! But I can't help but think that there's more to the story. Do you think he still loves me? I've missed so much, and even though I don't really want to admit it, I still love him. Should I tell him? I might not have another chance you know-"

"CINDY!" I yelled, to calm her down. She was ranting. And when she started ranting, she wasn't likely to stop.

She looked up and sniffed again. "Why is this happening to me?" Fresh tears started falling down her cheeks. I felt like crying myself. She really doesn't deserve this. I needed to get Jimmy and Cindy to have a little heart-to-heart.

After I talked to Sheen, of course.

I hugged her again, rocking her slowly back and forth. "It's going to be okay Cin...It's going to be fine..." I said over and over. I let her go and then said, "I'm gonna go outside and see what's going on there, okay, I'll be right back. Unless you wanna come out with me..." She shook her head violently. I sighed and walked out.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So that's what happened. Interesting, right?

Yeah.

Now Jimmy is expecting me to go back in there. I wanted to, but then again I didn't. I needed to talk to Sheen and Michelle...but Cindy needed me.

"I'll go get her." I said after groaning.

I walked back in there to see Cindy in the same position she was in earlier. "Hey girl..." I said quietly as I sat down beside her. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine. You know, I just need a friend right now." I smiled.

"That's what I'm here for, right?"

A/N: Awww...Libby and Cindy are such good friends. Now Libby has to talk to Sheen and make sure Jimmy and Cindy talk...can't wait to see how that goes! Some of you mentioned that you think Betty and Nick might be the people setting them up. Good guess, but I'm not telling you who it is! They might be it, they might not, you'll just have to wait and see. I was listening to this song and I decided that it fit this chapter because Libby was comforting Cindy. It goes okay with it, right?

Bring It On Home by Little Big Town

You've got someone here

Wants to make it all right

Someone to love you more

Than I have right here

You've gotta bring it on and I'll hold you tight

A hand to lead you on through the night right here

I know your heart can get all tangled up inside

But don't keep it to yourself

(Chorus)

When your long day is over

And you can barely drag your feet

When the weight of the world

Is on your shoulders

I know what you need

Bring it on home to me

You know I know you

Like the back of my hand

You know I'm gonna do

All that I can right here

Gonna lie with you

Till you fall asleep

When the morning comes

I'm still gonna be right here

Yes, I am

(Ooooooooo)

So take your worries and drop them at the door

Baby, leave it all behind

(Chorus)

Baby, let me be your safe harbor

Don't let the water come and carry you away

(Chorus)

Oh, bring it on home

Oh, bring it on home to me

Home to me

Oh, bring it on, bring it on home to me

You've got someone here

Wants to make it all right

Someone who loves you more than life
