Fallen
A/n: Do not own AGU, Rugrats, ladda da da blah. I only own the plot line to this story. Fare warning, the story jumps a head a bit, and I changed it to a CSa/CA luv triangle... Yayness
Also some other things I need to clear up in these chapters as well: I goofed on the ages and grades, so this is how I'll have it:
Angelica, Susie, and Samantha: 18 (Freshman/college)
Chuckie: 17 (senior)
Tommy, Phil, Lil, and Kimi: 16 (Junior)
Dil: 15 (Sophomore)
I can't remember, is Kimi older than Tommy, Lil, and Phil, or is she the same age? Hmm…. Who knows

¤Chapter 4¤
Angelica stretched herself on her bed and looked at the clock. She only had a few hours before Tommy's little party started. She placed her hand on her head and wondered how she ever got caught up in this, in everything. She was her own independent girl with her own friends and her own way of thinking, she wouldn't let anyone or anything in and she honestly didn't care. Now she found herself hanging out more with Susie and her annoying Cousin, along with his annoying friends.
Then there was the one with the lovely red hair, and goofy looking glasses, the messy clothes, and the dumbest smile known to man. For some reason, his geek-ness turned her on. She was the Summer Roberts to his Seth Cohen, and she hated herself for it. Of course there was a road bump, there were always road bumps. That bump was Samantha Shane. She heard a knock on her door, and Angelica froze. Her parents were out of town at some expo thing, so she knew that it wasn't them. Susie always called when she came over, and even then she already left for Yale. She knew Tommy and Lil were too busy with themselves to visit her, and why on earth would Kimi or Phil want to see her?
She reached for her nurf baseball bat she had in her closet, since that was the only thing considered a weapon in her room. It was some pretty hard nurf, so it might leave a black eye or two. The knocking persisted, and Angelica had her hand on the knob. She turned it slowly, and then flew the door open. She almost dropped her bat in shock, but she clutched onto it tighter.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Lil turned through some of the CD's that Tommy had, trying to find the right ones for tonight. Everything seemed semi-normal again as they started to turn Tommy's house into party central. Kimi and Phil, not afraid to show off their new found affection for one another, volunteered to go to the super market to get food and decorations, and Dil was looking through his room for strobe lights, disco balls, anything weird yet cool at the same time they could use. Tommy only invited some of his closer friends, but knowing Angelica she would add about 100 more names to that list.
Tommy walked out of the kitchen after hours of cleaning and vacuuming, the house looked decent and ready to be completely trashed. He joined Lil on the floor and placed his head on her shoulder. She welcomed his warmth as she tilted her head back against his.
"What about this one? Waterfall today's hottest dance hits remixed by Cascada. We can also add a little rock with some All American Rejects, or how about Thirty Seconds to Mars? Ooo, how about…" Tommy interrupted her by placing his lips onto her neck. She felt a shiver escape down her spine as she closed her eyes and pressed her body against his. "You're evil."
"I know I am." Tommy snuggled his head against her neck, which always made her laugh. She let out a chuckle as the door bell rang. Tommy cocked an eyebrow and wondered who would be showing up right now. He got up from his position on the floor and swung the door open. On the other side was a teary-eyed Angelica, holding what appeared to be a nurf baseball bat.
"Angelica? What happened, are you ok? Why are you holding a baseball bat?"
"We need to talk, Pickles… Now."
---------------------------------------------------
FLASBACK
"Hey Angelica, long time no see…" Chuckie moved closer to her as she raised her baseball bat over her head.
"I Swear to God Finster if you come any closer you'll be wishing you hadn't."
"Angelica, your threats might have scared me when I was 2, 5, 12, and 15.. But now, things have changed."
"Why, because your married now? What, does marriage come with a set of balls now?" Chuckie just laughed as he sat on Angelica's bed. "Hey! Did I say you could sit there, Hm?"
"Where else am I suppose to sit?"
"How bout anywhere but here?"
Chuckie's eyes narrowed as he lifted himself to a standing position. He continued to walk over toward Angelica, and she was getting antsy. "What did I tell you, Q-ball?"
"Sorry, Angelica, but I'm not afraid of you anymore." Angelica closed her eyes and swung her bat as hard and as fast as she could. Chuckie easily caught the foam in his hands and ripped it out of her hands. Angelica opened her eyes as a look of utter confusion spread across her face.
"What the hell… have you been working out?"
Chuckie laughed as he turned his back to her. "I'd love to stay and chat with you, Angie, but I have some things to do before tonight."
Angelica's eyes grew wide as she watched him go out the door. She couldn't seem to speak, so she let her feet do the talking as she ran towards her door. She managed to get ahead of him and blocked his way out of her room. "What the hell?" OK, good, she still had a voice. "Did you just come by to ridicule me, Finster? Honestly, I'm not buying this little act of yours."
"Oh?" Chuckie folded his arms across his chest and looked at her. "What were you expecting then?"
"A blabbering idiot wanting my forgiveness for running off with my best friend and then getting hitched in Las Vegas, at the age of 17 for gods sake! You're at the top of your class, Finster, I thought you would have enough brains to figure out that it was a bad idea to begin with." Chuckie avoided eye contact with her as she continued. "And you want to know what the worst part of this ordeal was? Watching your sister plummet into depression."
Chuckie unfolded his arms and turned his back to her. "I'm sick and tired of hearing about her depression. She hardly hung out with me, we only really spoke at work or at home, and she wanted to disinclude me from her family tree, and her hardly approved of anything that I did or wanted to do."
"You want to know why? Because you're an idiot, Chuckie!" Chuckie whirled around to face Angelica again. He placed his hands on her shoulders and gently pulled her closer to him. Their faces were only inches apart as he spoke.
"You and everyone else can blame whatever you want on me, but honestly I'm sick of being treated the way I am. I made a decision, I planned out my life, so deal with it." Angelica's eyes grew wide as he inched closer to her face. She could feel him now, his presence… tainted and so unfamiliar. She could feel it now, his lips onto hers. The complete shock vibrated through her body, and she wanted more. She wanted to deepen it, put her arms around his neck and let him take her away into his warmth… but she couldn't. She broke the kiss and pushed him away from her, tears streaming down her face.
"How…How could you do this?"
He didn't say anything as he pushed his way past her. He stepped out into the hallway, then turned his head. "I'll be seeing you, Ange." He waved as he went down the hall and down the stairs. Angelica just stood there, with tears streaming down her face. How could he?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kimi listened as they went down the aisles of the grocery store. Phil told her everything: about how Chuckie has returned to town, his plans on crashing Tommy's first party, the whole conversation over the phone. She seemed to have been taking the news pretty well, that is, until they hit the candy aisle.
"So, you're ok, right?"
Kimi beamed a smile toward Phil and nodded. "OF COURSE I AM SILLY!" By the time they got through the whole aisle looked like a war zone. Kimi piled as much chocolate in the cart as humanly possible, which left Phil quite frightened. "Um… don't you think we should-"
"No."
As they walked towards the checkout, something caught Kimi's eye. She stopped, which left Phil puzzled. She walked, then ran past aisles, with Phil trying to keep up with her with a cart full of food. "Hey, Kimi!" Phil stopped as he clashed carts with an elderly women. His chest rammed up against the handle of the cart, and then he just plain fell over. The older women gasped and tried to help him up, saying that she couldn't see very well these days, and blah blah blah…
Kimi saw her then and there, turning into an aisle up a head. She booked it as she came up to that aisle, the feminine products aisle. She watched her in complete shock, looking through an array of pregnancy tests. He face looked tired and worried as she tried to find the right one, the one that was 99.9 accurate above the rest. Kimi slowly walked up to her, and the girl didn't notice her until she placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Samantha?"
Samantha whirled her head around and came into eye contact with Kimi. She dropped the box in shock as her mouth gapped open.
"Kimi…. I-I can explain…"
