Without further ado, Broken Girl Chapter Two.
I woke up and blinked a couple of times. I surveyed my surroundings and I was tucked up in bed in my bedroom. "Cornelia? Maria?" I called. A couple of minutes later my sister came into my room with a tray full of food. "Wait, dinner? How long was I out for?" I started eating the lasagne Cornie made.
"A couple of hours. It's past 7 now. Your friends are downstairs worried about you. They cant eat until they know you're alright." She said, stroking my face. I enjoyed Cornie's cooking but right now I wasn't much hungry. I looked at my bedside mirror and saw the ugly purple black eye. I sighed. "Don't worry babe. He's gone. You're going to have to press charges, baby." She said. I looked at her and nodded.
"He deserves everything bad coming for him. It's our turn to make his life hell." I said, giving the tray to Cornelia and getting out of bed. "I'm going downstairs, you gunna come with?" I asked. She smiled and nodded following me out of my bedroom.
I went inside the living room to see the guys, Mitchie, Dana and Maria in the living room watching T.V. "Oh, by the way, I called Mom, she's coming and she'll be here in a couple of minutes." Cornelia said, making everybody look at me then get up.
"Oh, great! Hey guys." I said, hugging all of them except Dana.
"Sweetheart, you gotta talk to Mom and sort your bad beef." Cornelia said, I turned and sighed. I was about to say something when the doorbell rang. I went to answer it but Maria stopped me and went. A couple of minutes later Maria and my future-step-mom, Milly came through. "Hello Milly." Cornelia said.
"Hello Milly." I said, looking at my sister who was angry. But dangerously calm.
"I heard what happened. I'm so sorry, girls. I broke it off with your father." Milly said. Me and my sister nodded not wanting to say anything we would regret. The door rang again but this time Cornelia went and got it. It was my Mom.
"Caitlyn?" Rebecca asked. I looked at her and she gasped and went to hug me but I stopped her. "Darling, what's wrong?" She asked.
"What's wrong?!" I screamed. "You left me, that's what's wrong! Celebrity who cannot look after her own daughter and left knowing her ex-husband will probably kill her." I said. "When you left, Cornelia left. It was just me and him and I was scared." All my secrets were going to be unfolded. I took a deep breath and sat down on the sofa.
"Mom, why don't you find a hotel for tonight and we'll sort all this tomorrow, when Cait's up to it." Cornelia said. Rebecca nodded and left. "Milly, I'm sorry if you thought our father was a good man but turned out he wasn't and I hope the best for your future." She directed to Milly, she too, nodded and left. "Caitlyn's friends? Why don't you guys come back tomorrow or on Cait's birthday and go out and have a nice time. Right now, I have to be there for her." My friends and Dana nodded and left.
"Bye guys." I said before they left, they mumbled 'bye' and left. "Maria, if you don't mind but can you get me some water and paracetamol, I got a splitting headache. Please?" I asked, she nodded and left to the kitchen. Cornie came and sat down next to me and dragged me and put her arm around me. I laid my head on her shoulder and cried.
"It's ok..." She said, stroking my hair and kissing my head. I knew it was going to be ok but some part of me knew it wasn't. I had to press charges against my father. Cornelia was staying indefinitely and could probably go back to Tim any time. My mother was probably going to get me to move in with her all the way in Miami. And I'll be confused of what to do. Leave, stay, leave?
****Two Days Later****
'Wake up in the morning, feeling like P Diddy,
Grab my glasses, I'm out the door, I'm gunna hit this city,
Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack,
Cause' when I leave for the night, I ain't coming back.'
Was on the radio whilst I dressed for my eighteenth birthday today. I was excited. I didn't know what my friends and family were organising for me but at least I was going to have a great day. I had sorted out my beef with my Mom and Cornelia had asked me to move into her new apartment. I didn't know whether I should or not, but she says the offer is still there.
I was wearing a midnight blue tank top with black skinny jeans and blue Converse and a black blazer and a blue wrap-around bow headband. I went downstairs to see my breakfast and a note attached to it. Apple and Raspberry pancakes, my favourite! 'Dear my awesome eighteen-year-old sister, I'm sorry that I am not there to have breakfast with you but I'll see you later. It's a surprise so don't bother calling and asking! Luv CoCo.' Oh, whatever then. If it's a surprise then it is a surprise.
I was halfway through my brekkie when my phone buzzed a couple of times and I had a phone call. "Hello?" I said, answering it. I heard someone count up to three, then...
"Happy Birthday To You! Happy Birthday To You! Happy Birthday To Caitlyn! Happy Birthday To You! Yay!"
"Oh my God guys! You gave me a heart attack." I giggled. "Thank you! You guys rock!" I said eating my pancakes.
"So, you better come over and we'll take you out on a fantastic experience!" I heard Nate say. I laughed and finished my pancakes and put it in the sink. Maria immediately cleaned it up.
"Sure. I'll be there in fifteen minutes. And once again guys, thank you and I love you!"
"We love you too!" They chorused, I chuckled and hung up.
"I'll see you later Maria!" I said kissing her cheek and walking out the kitchen.
"Happy Birthday Caity, darling!" She replied as I went out the front door and straight into my Audi R8. I flicked my wavy blonde-white hair and smiled to myself. 'Happy Birthday Me' I thought. I started my car and drove off.
"Knock'knock!" I said knocking on the boys' front door. A couple of minutes later, Nate answered. "Hello, Wolfie!" I said walking in. I turned and hugged him and he kissed me on the cheek.
"Hello, Tiger. Happy Birthday, again." He said, letting go. I looked around and saw nobody was home. I was very confused because they said I should come over.
"Where's everyone? I thought we were going out all together." I said. I went to every room looking for my present and grabbing some grapes off the dining table whilst still looking.
"Well, they forgot your present, so don't bother looking. So they went out." Nate said, taking my grapes and eating them.
"Aw! So, you're here, where's my present?" I asked, folding my arms and rising my eyebrow.
"As always, I get presents weeks before the person's birthday so..." He reached into his back pocket. Damn, why didn't I look there? "Here. Happy Birthday, again." He said for the like, one billionth time today. I grabbed it and opened the black velvet box. Inside was a necklace in the shape of a heart and it had my name, 'Caitlyn Alice' engraved on it. My eyes watered and I smiled.
I hugged him tightly, "Thank you!" I whispered. I let go and I gave the necklace to him to put it on. I turned and lifted my hair as it attached the clip together. I turned around me hugged him again. "So, who's going to come and celebrate with me?" I asked, letting him go.
"Well, me, obviously, Shane, Jason, Mitchie, Cornelia, your mother and I think your sister's boyfriend. They got back together." Nate said. I nodded and smiled. Tim was ok, but then he and CoCo always had arguments and they would end up with one leaving the other for like a day then they were hugs and kisses the next.
"What about Dana? You guys spend loads of time together." I said eating strawberries. What was with me and fruit today? I already had apple, raspberry and grapes. Ah, five a day, healthy me!
"Yeah, I broke up with her yesterday. She was cheating on me." He said. He didn't seem sad about it. I hugged him and he shrugged.
"She's a bitch, ok? Move on, Wolfie!" I said. He laughed lightly and dragged me to the living room. I saw DVDs laid out on the coffee table. "We're watching a movie?" I asked.
"Yup. Anything you like. It's just till we go and meet the others at the Mall." He replied sitting down and grabbing the popcorn. I shrugged and sat next to him choosing 'Harry Potter'. "Good choice." Nate said. I smiled and cuddled up into him.
"Nate, remember when we were thirteen and we watched a horror film?" I asked him. He looked down into my eyes. His eyes were the hottest brown ever. Chocolate brown. I looked down, trying not to blush.
"Yeah. I wet myself and you wouldn't stop torturing me about it. We then agreed never to watch a horror movie again." He replied.
"Well...Can we watch Scream instead of this. I'm bored of it." I said. Nate's eyes widened and looked at me. I saw him gulp and I smirked evilly.
"Urm...Whatever you want..." He said. I squealed and changed the movie and sat back down lifting my feet underneath me. "By the way, I never said, but you look fantastic." I giggled.
"Don't I always?" I said. He looked down into my eyes and I felt a million sparks in that just one look. He leaned in and was about to kiss me when a girl screamed in the movie. "Urgh! So much for romantic moment, huh?" I said, slightly annoyed of that I couldn't kiss my crush. When Nate stayed quiet, I looked up at him to see him staring at me. I blushed and he finally kissed me. I pulled away and I giggled. "I thought you already gave me my birthday gift." I said. He shrugged and smirked.
"I've been thinking about you an awful lot and I want you to be my girlfriend." Nate said. I moved back from him and grinned widely. "So, I take that as a yes?" He asked. Seriously? I nodded in a 'duh' way and he hit me playfully.
"So, now my boyfriend is not only the sexiest guy in America, but he only turns out to be Nate Gray, member of Connect 3. How do I feel? Elated because I had the honour of being his best friend before." I said, pretending to be in a interview. I was about to say something else but Nate's phone rang informing us that my surprise party. I knew it was a party, I ain't that gullible!
I got out the car and a couple of seconds after, Nate did too. I stood outside what seemed to be a waterpark/indoor activities center. "Why did you drive me here?" I asked, turning round only to be turned around again and pushed inside. "Nathan, I haven't got my swimming suit. So why are we here?" I asked again. He led me through a hallway in the activity center and finally stopped at a door.
"Open it." Nate said, I gave him that 'Are you crazy?' look and he shrugged it off. "Go on, just open the door." He urged me, turning me around and gently pushing me to the door. I gave in and turned the handle. I slowly pushed open the door and saw everybody staring at me.
"Surprise!" They screamed. I turned around and hit Nate playfully.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I hit him again and he laughed just pushing me into the party room.
"Whole point of a 'surprise' duh." He replied.
"Well, I love it. Thank you guys" I said, hugging CoCo as she gave me a drink.
"Now, I get to say it in person. Happy Birthday, baby girl." She said, giving me another hug. "You're officially an adult. How does it feel?" She asked me, going interviewer style. I laughed and scrunched my face up.
"Nah, don't like it." She stood there with her jaw hanging and I pushed her chin up. "Joking. I love it." She smiled and kissed my cheek. My Mom hugged me and gave me a present. It was a photo of me when I was six, dancing as a ballerina. My eyes watered. "I love it, Momma. Thank you." I said kissing her cheek. She smiled and went to talk to some guests.
"Now, Caity? Your friends and I got you something really special, so we hope you like it." Cornelia said. She wheeled a big green box with a purple satin bow and a couple of holes pierced on.
"I have a feeling like I'm going love it, not like it." I said, earning a couple of laughs in the background. I kneeled down and took the bow off and tied it around my wrist. I like the colour, don't blame me! I took the lid off and gasped at my sight. "Awh! It's a little Terrier! Oh my gosh, I love it! Thank you guys." I said hugging all of them and kissing my new dog. I snuffled it and kissed it. "Your name is...urm... What gender is this?" I asked.
"Girl." Mitchie replied. I nodded and smiled. I had the best name ever!
"Hello, Alice." I smiled. Yeah, my middle name, baby! I put Alice down to sniff people's legs and giggled. Her fur was the same colour as my hair. White-blonde. My friends guessed right! Well they do know me.
"So, you and Nate, what's the goss?" Tess and Mitchie asked me. Drinks in their hands, slowly sipping at the same time.
"Oh come on, we saw you two. Very close. In fact, closer than you were before. Definitely not best friends." Tess said. I blushed and sighed. I sipped my punch and shrugged, smiling widely.
"Three words. Friends With Benefits." I said, walking off to the direction of Jason and Shane. "Hey guys! How are you?" I asked them as they smiled at me. Weird.
"Good. How are you?" Shane asked. I tipped my head and he looked past me. I followed his eyes and reach Nate. Ah... They know.
"Alright. Better actually. Had my first kiss today." I said flicking my wavy hair, in attempt to get them to beg for my information.
"That's great." Jason said, raising his eyebrow up and down in a 'I know who' way. "Happy Birthday." He said. I thanked him and hugged him.
"Yeah, Happy Birthday." Shane said, hugging me and kissing my cheek.
"Thanks. I'll see you later. By the way thanks for the dog!" I said, walking off and smiling. Someone came through the door and Cornie squealed. "I guess that's Tim." I said to myself. I had never met him, he was mysterious. But I guess I would now, seeing CoCo and him walk towards me. I brought up my polite smiled and looked directly at them. "Hi. I'm Caitlyn, Cornelia's little sister. Nice to meet you. I've heard lots!" I said, shaking his hand. He hugged me and kissed my cheek like he knew me. To be honest I had heard lots about him. He was an actor and he was very famous. He and my sister went public with their relationship and I guess I'm kinda more famous now. But I would like to be famous for my own thing. Like being a producer in the hottest label in the world! Ah, dreams!
"Hi, Tim. And I've heard lots about you too. Oh and Happy Birthday, here." Tim said, handing me a gift. It was two tickets to Hawaii.
"Oh my gosh, thank you!" I said, hugging him again. Alice came up to us and sniffed his legs. He laughed and patted her head.
"What a beauty. Hello, what's your name?" He asked. He looked up at me and smiled.
"Oh, her name is Alice. She's named after me. Alice is my middle name." I smiled widely. He nodded and stroked her fur again. Alice seemed to be liking it because she was snoring I think...
"So sis, who are you taking there? Every week, I'm free, just to let you know." Cornie said, dropping hints that I should pick her to go.
"I think I'm taking Nate. You know, just me and him, two weeks in Hawaii, snuggled up on the beach, watching the sun set. Paradise." I said, smiling at Nate's direction. He was talking to a blonde girl I didn't know, probably a friend of Mitchie's or Tess'. I felt jealous because he's my boyfriend. I walked up to him and hugged is arm. "Hey babe. Guess what?" I asked him. He looked at me and kissed my lips gently. I looked directly into his eyes.
"What?" He guessed. I smiled and showed him the tickets. "Us two? Really? Wow. Where did you get them?" He said. I could see he was excited to go with me so that made the blondie's face fall a bit.
"Tim, CoCo's boyfriend. Birthday gift. I want to go and relax somewhere with just you. Like today..." I said, wrapping my arms around his waist from behind. "My Mom will let me go. Just need your parents permission."
"I think they'll agree, babe. I love you." He said, turning around and kissing me.
"I love you too." I said. Kissing him once again, I saw my friends smiling in the background. I turned around and kissed him again. "Back off, he's mine." He chuckled and hugged me.
