Girl's Fight, Girl's night and Girl's Secrets

Liberty woke up to the sound of the mobile phone ringing she placed the pillow on top of her head to drown out the sound but it was no use the phone was ringing of the hook, she looked at the time it read a bold red 7.30 she sighed 'who would be calling me now' she mumbled she reached for her cluttered dresser she moved her hands around franticly searching for it, she finally found it and answered it " hello" she said groggily " hey Lib " and cheerful voice sounded from the other side , Liberty knew it could be only on person who is always this happy in the morning " hey Emma" she rolled her eyes that girl as the worse kind of timing possible " hey Lib I was just calling you cause Manny, Kendra and I are going shopping and we wanted to invite you along" Liberty just wanted to be along since the visit from JT last night she wasn't in any mood to go out shopping " you know Em, I'm not really up for it so you, Kendra and Manny can go with out me" just them her bedroom door swung opened and Emma and Manny both walked in "Surprise" they shouted in unison.

Liberty screeched and pulled the covers over her head " go away" she said from under the blanket " that not going to happen Lib, we need to get you out and about so come on" Manny exclaimed as she pulled the covers for Liberty's warm body " come on Lib the mall opens in an hour so get a move on" Emma pulled her up Liberty rolled her eyes

"guys I really….." she didn't even get to finish her sentence before Manny interrupted

"no excuses " Liberty snickered and got up "fine give me 15 minutes" she said as she slammed the bathroom door shut. " don't be too long my mom and Kendra are waiting in the car" Emma yelled after her.

Liberty look at her self in the mirror her eyes were still read and puffy from the tears she shed last night, her hair was a mess and her body was still burning from JT touch she sighed in frustration " I will never get over you JT, not now not ever, I wont "

Meanwhile………………

"we got to get her out of this house Em, I mean she needs to meet new people especially some guys, JT would have wanted her to do this" Emma nodded and sat on Liberty's bed "ow" she felt something hard come in contact with her body, she quickly got up and looked for it, she came across what looked to be a big book " what's this ?" Emma asked as she picked it up " oh my god, that's the photo album JT made for Liberty for their anniversary" Manny answered taking it from Emma's hands " it took him 5 weeks to make it and he complained every step of the way he drove Toby and I cuckoo bananas" Manny laughed " so this is what she was doing last night" Emma said as everything came in full circle " and by the looks of things she wasn't along" Manny pointed to Liberty dresser which now consisted of the melted ice-cream. " we got to get her out of this house and out and about" both girls nodded and planned to take Liberty out shopping to get her mind off JT, just then they heard the water shut off, both Manny and Emma scrambled to hide the photo album that was in their hands "under the covers" Emma whispered as Manny carefully placed in under it's original position and they quickly took their seats on the bed.

" What are you guys doing?" Liberty suspiciously asked as she existed the bathroom "nothing" they replied together Liberty didn't believe them for a second she eyed them trying to see if one of them would crack they didn't, she gave up "so are we going to go?" Emma and Manny nodded and each grabbed Liberty's hand "lets do this" Manny yelled out.

The drive to the mall was longer them expected Liberty stared aimlessly at the window ignoring the conversation that was being discussed, focused on the events that occurred last night JT coming to her bedroom and telling her it was ok to move on, Liberty couldn't do it her heart hurt just thinking about that concept she wasn't ready not just yet.

She was immediately snapped out of her trance when she felt a tug on her shirt , she turned to see Kendra staring at her wide eyed " you alright?" Liberty's mind screamed "no" but Liberty shook off that feeling she placed her hand over Kendra's " I'm fine Kendra really" "yeh sure you are" Manny said sarcastically " what's that suppose to mean?" Liberty eyed Manny spitefully " we saw it Liberty, when you were in the bathroom we saw it, the photo album, the ice-cream we even saw your blood shot eyes, you may be able to act that you fine but inside your falling apart" Liberty was furious how could she go through her stuff like that, she took away her privacy Liberty whole body began to shake with anger and she exploded " how could you Manny, you looked through my stuff, you have no idea how I feel no I deal what kind of pain I was in and still am because of JT death, you would never know" Emma, Kendra and Spike were in shock Liberty wasn't the type to lash out at people but Manny did hit a sensitive subject "I'm sorry Lib, it just that your not the same since JT's death" Manny continued "Of course I'm not I lost the one person I loved my whole life, the father of my baby, its not like I can just revert back to how I was before JT's death, and how would you know anyway you have been through several guys and not one of them you have ever loved " Liberty spat angrily.

Everybody's mouth dropped no-one could say a thing, Manny began to get angry and started to shout " well Emma, Kendra and I are trying to be friends but if you don't want our help then fine be lonely forever see if we care" Manny spat back Liberty could stand being in the same car as Manny, she was about to burst " I'm sorry Mrs. Nelson could you drop me off here ill catch the bus home" Emma started to argue but Liberty stopped her " don't bother Emma, I'm not in the mood to get into a fight with anybody else please ill be ok" Emma sighed and Spike pulled over letting Liberty out of the car " thank you Mrs Nelson" Liberty said politely she turned to Emma and Kendra "sorry guys I know you wanted to hang out maybe next time" Emma and Kendra nodded Liberty walked towards the bus stop.

" Manny!!!!" Emma spun around and scolded " what she need some to tell her the truth and you two defiantly weren't gonna tell her " Manny crossed her arms and turned her face away from Emma " this was suppose to be about Liberty to help her move on and forget JT and what did you do , you brought up JT" Kendra rolled her eyes Emma nodded " its not like you helped, are you alright ?, of course she's not " Manny shook her head "girls, girls" Spike yelled they stopped and all looked at her " if this is about Liberty, why are you girls fighting shouldn't you be with her apologizing" she said looking directly at Manny. Manny folded her arms "I did nothing wrong" she exclaimed stubbornly Kendra and Emma gave her glares "ok, ok maybe I went a bit cuckoo banana's" Manny admitted "but she did to" she defended " Manny you scolded her for grieving over her dead boyfriend, I think she has a right to be mad" Kendra roared " she's our friend Manny and we are suppose to be helping her get through this extremely difficult time not pushing her away" " your right Emma, I just cant stand her being this way I mean she needs to move on" Manny sighed ashamed of what she did she thought we was helping instead she mad things worse " just think of it way, Emma what if you lost Sean, Manny what if you lost Craig and Kendra if you lost Toby, think about how that would make you feel and multiply it by a hundred that how Liberty would feel, I mean I'm not saying that you guys haven't gone through issues with your boyfriends but think of it this way, Liberty lost the man she has loved since the moment she laid eyes on him, the one she never gave up on, the one she won over and gave herself too and ended up having a baby by and then after all that losing him in the worse way possible, how would you feel if that was you?" Spike finished as she looked at each girl.

Silence came over them, nobody knew what to say "so how do we fix it" Manny asked

"Well, just apologize, and be there for her, help her she needs you now more then ever" Spike smiled "how do you know all this" Kendra asked in amazement Spike laughed I have had a lots experience, I went to high to you know, I am wise beyond my years" Spike laughed " I have to do something to say I 'm sorry" Manny said they all nodded.

Later that night….

"Liberty someone's at the door for you" Mrs. Van Zandt yelled Liberty walked to the door and saw Emma and Kendra she smiled "hey guys come in" Emma and Kendra enter the house , when they walked in Liberty's eyes set on the figure standing outside the door she immediately recognized it to be Manny, Liberty frowned she was still upset with Manny "hi" Manny said "hi" Liberty answered " can I come in" Manny asked quietly Liberty nodded " Liberty I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I had no right to say those things, I'm really sorry" Liberty nodded " 'I'm sorry to I didn't mean to say all though hurtful things I was just mad" Manny nodded " so does that ,mean the apologies are excepted " Kendra asked hopefully both Liberty and Manny smiled " yeah" , Emma smiled "great now that this is settled we all wanted to invite you over to my house to for a girls night in popcorn, ice-cream, chocolate and a sad movie or too and we sleep really late, what do you say Lib?" Liberty smiled "sure I'd like that"

"so what do you guys want to watch- Titanic, A Walk To Remember or Pearl Harbor" Emma said holding up the DVD's " oohh I cant chose Leonardo Dicaprio, Shane West or Josh Hartnett" Manny grinned in delight " how about we don't watch a movie, how about we do something else " Kendra suggested " like what?" Liberty raised an eyebrow she knew Kendra well enough to know that she up to something how about ………… the alphabet game" Kendra grinned widely Manny immediately grinned too and agreed "I'm in" she shouted "what's that?" Liberty asked " well my dear Liberty, it's a game were you go in turns to name a country through from A to Z and if you stop you have to take a drink, but since Emma's parents are up stairs and we don't have any alcohol instead of drinking we ask you a question no matter what it is you have to answer it" Manny grinned widely Emma though about it for a second " ok I'm in" Liberty debated for a bit before agreeing " ok why not" "ok, ill start" Manny volunteered " Australia" "Bulgaria" Emma answered "Canada" Kendra replied proud " Denmark" Liberty continued.

This went on until Emma got stuck on the letter "Q" " hey that's not far, there is no country that beginnings with the 'Q'" Emma complained "tough" Manny laughed " so Emma…." Kendra slyly grinned "On Liberty's birthday when I saw you and Sean going in to your bedroom did you do what I think you did" Kendra bluntly asked Emma blushed a bit "oohh is she blushing, Emma, come on spill it" Liberty teased Manny laughed already knowing the story " well we did go in there to do what you think we were going to do, but I was so nervous that I got wasted and ended up puking in the waste basket before anything could go any further" Liberty and Kendra burst into laughter and Manny joined them, Emma blushed profusely "so did you end up you know….." Kendra eagerly asked " I though it was one question" Emma eyes narrowed " ok ill answer for you …. Nope nothing happened little miss humanitarian is still, saintly as ever" Manny grinned " well I'm glad to know at least one of us is" Liberty chuckled. The game continued and Manny got stuck this time " so Manny" Liberty started evilly glaring at her " remember the time you and Craig disappear for a whole hour after the 9th grade dance and you came back with your clothes muddled , what actually did happen" Manny wasn't ashamed, she didn't hold anything back " well" she blushed " we couldn't wait until the dance ended so we ended up on the principle's table" Emma, Liberty and Kendra's mouth dropped "oh my god" Liberty laughed and clutched over on Kendra's lap " so that's why the Principle was so mad" Kendra nearly choked for laughing so hard " at least she never got caught" Emma rolled her eyes at her best friends antics.

" This is actually really fun" Liberty smiled enjoying herself , but it wasn't until she got stuck that she knew she shouldn't have spoken so soon " Miss Liberty Van Zandt" Manny evilly started knowing she was going to repay her for what the question she asked before "tell us about your first time with JT" both Emma and Kendra stared at her wide eyed seeing whether she would tell or not "ok don't we have to get to bed" she said making excuses " I don't think I should guys, I gave JT a hard time for telling Toby" she continued to make excuses " Liberty" they all said in union " Liberty sighed "ok, ok JT is gonna comeback and haunt me for this, but it was awkward, we both didn't know what we were doing , we kind of stubble a bit, it took him 10 minutes to actually come near me, and when he finally did he tripped over the foot of the bed and fell flat on his face , it took me 15 minutes to stop laughing " she laughed at the memory " but it make it memorable, and when I finally stopped laughing and he finally reached me he asked me if I was ready and that we didn't need to do this if I wasn't ready, I told him it was ok and it just happened " the girls sighed " that is so sweet" Manny said hugging her pillow Kendra nodded along with Emma.

Just them there was a knock at the door and Spike and Archie walked in " girls time for bed its already 12.00, come on lights out girls" alright alright" Emma said " I thought you were suppose to be watching a movie, what were you doing down here " Spike asked suspiciously " girl talk mom" Emma smiled Spike laughed " girl talk, right" she smiled Archie not wanting to feel left out popped in " night girls " " night" a unity of good nights came from the girls.

Spike switched off the lights and closed the door, and when all was silent Liberty spoke up again " guys………thanks for doing this for me I really appreciate it , its really helping me get through" Emma smiled " anything for you Lib" " we love you Lib" Manny chimed " that's what friends are for " Kendra laughed Liberty smiled to herself " thanks guys, I love you too" she said before they all fell asleep.
