Ch1
'Peg, are you sure it's ok?' Kerrie asked her co-worker. 'Kerrie, like I said we have an extra ticket and it's fine. I talked to your parents and they oked it. Don't worry about the boss it's taken care of.' 'But I'm going there in 2 months with Jean.' 'You'll get to see a few more sites.' 'Thanks so much.' She said giving the older lady a hug. 'Now, get going and go pack. We're leaving early tomorrow.' Kerrie smirked and headed out the door. She dialed Jean's number on her cell. 'Hey, what's up?' 'Kerrie, your going aren't you?' 'Yea.' 'Good, then you'll meet some hotties and have them waiting for us.' 'Maybe, wanna come shopping?' 'Yea, I'll meet you in 10.' She clicked off her phone and walked into her house. Her sister stood there with her hands on her hips. 'Your going to Ireland with Peggy?' 'Yea.' She said walking past her and into her room. 'But your going with Jean in 2 months.' 'I was asked.' 'You suck!' She said sitting on her bed. 'I know.' She started tossing her clothes and shoes in a pile along with everything else. 5 minutes later Jean came running into the room. 'Your early.' Kerrie said folding come of her clothes. 'I know. I'm just so happy for you.' 'Yea, this is gonna be so great. Now at the mall I gotta get a dress for the wedding and something to give them.' 'Girl, you don't even know them.' 'I know but still.' Jean pulled her away from the clothes and dragged her down the hall. 'Come on the mall awaits.'
Ch 2
They got in Kerrie's jeep and drove to the Burlington mall with was about 20 minutes away at the rate Kerrie drove which was pretty fast. Jean ran threw the door. 'MAC!' She yelled as everyone looked at her. 'Opps. that was a little to loud.' She said pulling Kerrie towards the store. The gay guy working there rolled his eyes and whispered to the lady working. 'She's back. Keep on eye on the blonde, she's crazy.' The girls went threw dresses and finally settled on a light blue dress that went a little past her knees. She got a pair of high white sandals and make up to match. After they went to get some more stuff and soon the mall was closing. The girls went back to Kerrie's and Jean helped her pack. The next morning Kerrie's mother drove her to the airport. Peggy & her husband, Peter, were waiting outside. Kerrie got out and waved as she stumbled over to them. She was dressed in baggy sweatpants & sweatshirt, her hair was in a messy ponytail. They bordered the plane and took their seats. Once the plane was in the air Kerrie put on her CD player and blasted Pink. She soon fell asleep and when the plane landed she shot up. She tossed her CD player in her bag and wandered off the plane.
Ch 3
She put her bag down and fixed her hair as a guy walked over to Peggy and gave her a hug. 'Hello Shane, how's everything and everyone?' 'Spastic, mum is spazing. You'd think she hasn't had one of her children get married before. How's everything in the states?' 'Good, this is one of my co-workers, Kerrie.' 'So this is Kerrie, I've heard so much about you.' 'I hope it was good.' She half smiled. 'Yes it was, Jean is the trouble maker right?' 'Somewhat.' They all went out to see a BMW. 'Nice car.' 'Yea, it is. I'm glad I make that much money.' 'You look really familiar.' 'I visit Peg all the time.' 'No, it's not that. Are you in a group?' 'Yea, Westlife.' She started laughing. 'My sister loves you guys. She met you at the South Shore Mall the day your CD came out. She thinks Mark is the best.' 'What does she look like?' 'Brown hair and eyes.' 'Was she the girl dancing in the middle of the store?' 'Yea, her and her friend Erin were. Me and a friend took her but we were out shopping for our April vacation trip. She has pictures with all of your group.' 'I remember her. All the guys thought she looked like me. You two don't really look alike.' 'Yea, I look like my mom and she looks like my father.' 'They are total opposites.' Peg added. 'But we manage to be best friends. She was kinda upset she wasn't coming now or in 2 months with Jean and I.' 'I'll have to show you all the good places so you won't have to waist anytime.' 'That sounds good.'
Ch 4
The rest of her trip to Ireland was nice when she got back Jean had a surprise for her. Kerrie walked outside after talking with her family and Jean hugged her. 'Guess what?' 'What?' 'I got you a date with Liam!' 'You what?' 'Tomorrow night. Come on I made you a nail appointment.' Jean said dragging her down the street. 'I can't believe you did that.' 'It was easy. He came in for his prescriptions and I said you liked him. He didn't know who you were so I showed him a picture and then made a date.' 'What picture?' 'The one of you dressed like Britney Spears in the Baby One More Time video. Did you meet any hot Irish guys?' 'Peggy's nephew, Shane is in that group Westlife that Kayte is obsessed with. They all aren't bad looking. I basically hung around with Shane though.' 'How old?' '20-22 almost 23.' 'Not bad pictures?' 'Yea of me and Shane then his sister's wedding party.' 'Are you gonna get them in 1 hour?' 'They're already done.' 'When we get back to your house to pick out the outfit I gotta see.' Once their nails were dried they were walking up the hill when they bumped in Liam. 'Hey girls. Come for a dip in the pool?' 'No, we actually on our way to Kerrie's house to see pictures of Ireland.' 'Very cool. If you girls want to come down after I'll be around.' Jean started walking and he stopped Kerrie. 'Are you ok about tomorrow night?' 'Yea, I guess.' 'Good. Your sister was friends with Joel?' 'Yea. What did Jean actually say to you?' 'That she knew someone that liked me and asked if I knew you. I said no but when I saw the picture I remembered you. I always thought you were a cutie.' She started to blush as Jean yelled from the top of the hill. 'I better get going.'
Ch 5
She went up and they walked into Kerrie's house. 'Ker, some Shane guy called.' 'Shane?' Jean asked as she followed Kerrie into the down stairs apartment that was her grandfather's during the summer but hers the rest of the year. 'The guy in Westlife.' 'Oh yea. Pictures.' Kerrie handed her a stack then went over to the phone. She dialed a number written in her phone book and soon he answered. 'Hello?' 'Hey Shane, guess who?' 'Hey Kerrie, how was the flight?' 'Good, I got all the pictures developed. I'll send you the doubles.' 'Very good. I talked to your sister right?' 'Yea, I hope she didn't harass you.' 'No, she didn't. She said something about you going out with Liam.' 'Liam Lynch, Peg knows his father. He lives down the street from me Kayte was friends with his cousin Joel and I coached his cousin in wack-a-ball.' 'Sounds like your happy.' 'Very.'
Ch 6
In Ireland… Shane sighed as the other 4 looked at him. 'What happened?' 'She's going out with Liam.' 'Their going out that doesn't mean for good.' Kian said. 'I know but she seemed so happy about it. I don't think she feels the same about me.' 'I bet she does. I mean the way you two acted together you'd think you were a couple.' Nicky said. 'I don't know.' He got up and walked into his room as the guys all looked at eachother nervously. 'He's so in love, we gotta help out.' Bryan said a they all took seats on the floor. 'Ok, here's the plan.' They all talked quietly as Shane at in his room reminiscing. Soon he fell asleep and the guys had the basis of their plan. Luckily they were going to be in Ireland when she came back to it would be perfect then a month and a half later they were coming to the US. During the 3 months they were going to be there they had a long weekend off so they were planning a trip to Boston.
Ch 7
Jean pulled out a pair of jeans and a low cut tank top. 'This with your Steve Madden sandals. Then I'll come over tomorrow to do hair and make-up.' 'Jean, you act like I've never been on a date before.' 'I just want you to make a good impression. See Liam is different from all your ex boyfriends.' 'And how is that?' 'He's a good guy. You'll find out soon enough.' She said going threw Kerrie's make-up. At 11 Jean went home and Kerrie fell asleep. The next morning at 8 Kerrie woke up and went to get ready for work. She had on a pair of shorts and a sweater. She walked down the street to the pharmacy and went to work with stickers. Jean came in at 2 to help clean. The two girls joked around throwing stuff at eachother and writing funny signs. 6 came fast and both girls walked to Kerrie's house. 'What time are we going?' Kerrie yelled from the bathroom. 'He said he'd call before.' 'What are we doing?' 'Not a clue.' 'What do you know?' 'Nothing besides what I told you.' She laughed doing her homework. 'Ok. How do I look?' She said coming out of the bathroom and spinning around. 'Very good. Does Shane have online?' 'Yea, why?' 'Just curious, is he ever on?' 'I don't know.' 'How about we get a guy's opinion?' Jean said grabbing the digital camera that was hooked up to her computer. Kerrie posed and Jean took a picture.
Ch 8
She set it up in an e-mail. 'Here you e-mail him it? Is that him on now?' 'Yea.' IM K: Hey Shane. S: Hi Kerrie, how yea been? K: Good, if I send you something give me a honest opinion. S: Ok. She sent the e-mail and sat on the bed as Jean took her seat. S: Wow, you look really great. K: Thanks, this is Jean. Kerrie's just finishing getting ready for her date with Liam. S: Hi Jean, so your coming to Ireland in 2 months? J: Yea, Kerrie said it's awesome. I haven't been in like 5 years. S: Hang on a sec. J: Ok. Shane walked into his room and Kian dashed to the computer. S: Hello Kerrie, it's Kian. J: This is Kerrie's friend Jean but I'll tell her you said hi. K: Oh hi Jean. Kerrie told us all about you. J: lol, you think I'm a nut huh? K: No, you sound very nice and you don't look to bad either. J: Thanks very much. I saw a group pic. and you're a cutie. K: Cutie? I'm not a baby. Lol J: I know. K: Shoot, Shane is back. I gotta go. We can talk later? J: Yea. S: Was Kian bothering you? J: No, he was nice. The conversation continued until Liam called about a half an hour later. Shane left and Jean was talking to Kian. 'Kerrie, have fun.' 'You can stay here if you want?' 'Ok, I'll stay here tonight. I'll have Mike bring up my stuff.' 'Sounds good.' Kerrie checked her self once more in the mirror then headed downstairs with Jean behind her. The two waited outside soon Liam pulled up in his mustang convertible.
Ch 9
'Bye Jean, see yea.' 'Ok, have fun. Hi Liam.' 'Hey Jean. Kerrie, you look great.' He said getting out of the car to get a better look at her. 'Thanks.' She said blushing as Jean went inside and watched from the window. 'We better get going or we're gonna miss the movie.' 'What movie?' 'American Pie 2.' 'Very good.' The two both talked a little about themselves until the movie started. Liam took her hand as she smiled. Jean went to the computer. J: I'm back. Liam just picked up Kerrie, they were so cute. K: 1st date? J: Yea, they were going to the movies. K: How old is this guy? J: 20, he's in college to be a chief. K: Cool. He's not a sicko or anything right? J: no, I've known him for awhile he's wicked nice. K: Just checking because if he causes any trouble me and the lads might have to go over there and kick his but. J: lol. Are you guys gonna be there when we're coming? K: Actually yea, we're leaving the day after you are. J: Being a singer must rock. You get to go everywhere and party all the time. K: Yea, but your never home. J: True. The two talked for about an hour then Jean got changed and waited for Kerrie to come back. After the movie they went to the near by beach and walked around for awhile. They sat on the wall. 'I had fun tonight.' He said smiling. 'Me too. The movie was so funny.' 'Yea, better then the 1st one.' 'Defiantly.' 'So will there be a second date?' Kerrie looked up. 'I think so.' 'Good, because I like you. Your different then most girls.' 'I do try.' He leaned over and kissed her, she responded. After they moved apart. 'Wow, you're a good kisser.' He said standing up. 'You too.' 'We better be getting back. I don't want your parents to worry.' 'They wouldn't.' She said taking his hand as they walked back to the car.
Ch 10
When Kerrie walked threw the door Jean jumped up. She grabbed her arm and dragged her into her room. 'Details.' 'We went to see American Pie 2. It was so funny, then we went to Revere.' 'And?' 'We kissed.' 'How was it?' 'Very good.' '2nd date?' Kerrie nodded and walked back into the bathroom. 'When?' 'I don't know he said he'd call tomorrow.' 'And he will too.' They girls continued to talk. The next morning Kerrie awoke to the phone ringing. 'Hello?' 'Hey Kerrie, did I wake you?' 'Yea, but it's ok.' She said sitting up and looking at the clock it was 9. 'I was wondering if you and Jean wanted to go to Hampton with me and Chris for the day.' 'Let me ask her.' Kerrie nudged Jean with her foot. 'Let me sleep.' She mumbled pulling the pillow over her head. 'Jean, get up. Wanna go to Hampton with Liam and Chris?' 'Whatever.' 'She said yes.' 'Ok, we'll pick you up an a half an hour.' 'Ok bye.' She hung up and jumped up. She ran into the bathroom and showered then woke up Jean. 'Hurry up we got like 15 minutes.' 'Shit.' She dashed into the bathroom. Kerrie had on a baby blue tankini with white board shorts and sandals. Her hair was up in a messy bun. She tossed towels and sunscreen into her beach bag then got Jean's stuff ready as she came out dressed in a black tube suet and jean shorts. She pulled on a pink tank top then they headed out the door. 'Mom, we're going to Hampton with Liam and Chris.' 'So it went well?' 'Yea.' 'That's good hunny. Have fun.' Kerrie went outside
Ch 11
Jean got in the back with Liam's cousin Chris and Kerrie sat in the front. The drive to Hampton was filled with ideas of what they wanted to do. When they got there they went to the water slides then ate then went to the beach. The girls got some sun as the guys played catch. 'This is going great.' Kerrie smiled as Jean rolled her eyes. 'Chris keeps hitting on me.' 'So?' 'He's weird.' 'Then say you have a boyfriend.' 'I said I didn't.' Kerrie reach her bag and dialed Jean cell as it rang she laughed. 'Hello? Hi Neil, what's up?' She said loudly. 'Yea, I'll go out with you tomorrow night. Ok see yea then.' She hung up. 'Neil wants me to go out with him tomorrow.' She said as the guys came over. 'Who was that?' Chris asked. 'Neil, he asked me out and I said yea.' 'Oh.' He said disappointedly. 'Are you girls gonna come swimming?' 'Nope, that water is way to cold.' Kerrie said. Liam smiled evilly and picked her up and ran towards the water as Chris went to do the same. 'Don't even think bout it.' She got up and walked after they as Liam tossed Kerrie in the water. She came up and wiped the water out of her face. 'It's freezing.' She said splashing Liam. Jean got her feet wet and went back to her spot. Kerrie and Liam joked around. Soon it was 6 so they walked around to the stores and waited for the fireworks at 10. Kerrie and Jean got some jewelry and then fake tattoos. Liam jokingly got Kerrie's name on his back. At 10 they all went to the beach with sparklers and watched the fireworks. Jean wrapped herself in a towel as Chris sat next to her. Liam and Kerrie were wrapped in eachother's arms kissing a few feet infront of them.
Ch 12
At the ending of the fireworks they got into his car and headed back. Kerrie's cell started ringing. 'Hello?' 'Hey, where are you? I tried your house.' 'I'm in New Hampshire at Hampton Beach with Liam, Jean and his cousin Chris.' 'So how was it last night?' 'Very good.' 'I hear Kian and Jean hit it off.' 'Me too. I think she likes him.' 'He likes her. He was drooling over the pic she sent him.' 'It better not have been nasty.' She said giving Jean a look then laughing. 'I don't think it was. I'll let you go talk to yea later.' 'Ok. Bye Shane.' She hung up the phone and took Liam's hand that was on the gears. 'Who's Shane?' 'Peggy's nephew, from Ireland. I met him when I went there.' 'Cool. Do you have to work tomorrow?' 'In the afternoon.' 'Ok, I gotta work at night maybe you can come down the pool or something.' 'Sounds good.' At 11:30 they got back to Kerrie's house and Jean stayed there again. She went inside and Chris walked down the street as Liam and Kerrie sat on the doorsteps. 'Today was fun.' 'Yea, to bad Chris and Jean didn't hit it off.' He said. 'Yea.' 'So tomorrow are you gonna come down?' 'For awhile. I gotta go to the gym in the morning.' 'Why don't we do that. What gym do you go to?' 'The YMCA.' 'My family has a membership so it's fine. Want to meet there around 10?' She nodded.
Ch 13
'I have to tell you something.' He said putting a hand on her cheek. 'I know we've only gone out twice but I think I'm in love.' 'That's the same way feel.' 'Whew, that's a relief.' He said kissing her. There was a knock on the glass and it was her sister. She laughed and gave her a one minute sign. 'So we're an item now?' He said hopefully. 'Yea.' He gave her one last kiss. 'You better go before Kayte freaks.' 'She thinks she's the third parent.' 'Even thought you're the oldest?' She nodded. 'My sister and brother try to boss me around since they are so much older and have kids. I'll see you in the morning.' 'Ok.' 'Bye Kerrie.' He said getting into his car as Kerrie walked into the house dazed. 'Kerrie, is home late!' Kayte exclaimed to her parents who were sitting on the couch. 'Kayte, it's fine. She called earlier to say they were staying for the fireworks and plus she was with Liam, he's responsible.' 'Thanks, guys.' She said walking into her room and falling on her bed. 'Oh someone is in love!' Jean exclaimed form the computer. 'So...' 'Now I gotta find a guy so I'm not left in the dust.' Jean laughed sending Kian an e-mail. 'He said he loved me.' Kerrie said suddenly. 'He did? Aww. that's so cute.' Jean said turning around waiting for details. 'We were sitting outside and he was like I have something to tell you. I know we've only gone out twice but I think I'm in love, that's exact quote.' 'Sounds like one of those Freddie Prize Jr. movies.' Jean said. 'But it is so much better then that.' Kerrie said looking at her ceiling.
Ch 14
The next two months were great soon her and Jean sat on the plane on the way to Ireland. 'I'm gonna miss Liam.' She said taking her seat. 'So have you two had sex?' 'Jean!' 'Curious.' 'Like it's any of your business, yes we did.' 'Proud of you, now you're a women.' Kerrie laughed. 'I finally get to meet Kian, this should be fun.' Jean smirked. 'Yea, I bet it will be.' Kerrie said thinking of the many hours Jean spent at her house talking to Kian online. When they landed Jean's parents took a cab and the girls waited for the two guys as they ran threw the door. 'Egan! Late as usual.' Shane said hugging Kerrie. 'So Jean, we finally meet.' Kian said giving her a hug. 'Yea, now were here maybe Kerrie will shut up about Liam.' Jean laughed. They walked to Shane's car and they drove to Bryan's house where everyone else was. Kerrie hugged the other guys then Kerry. 'So here's Molly.' She said looking at the little baby. 'My pride and joy. Want to hold her?' Bryan said. 'Can I? She looks just like you.' Bryan smiled as Kerrie held the baby and he saw Shane looking at her. He nudged Nicky and Kian who were standing near him and they all smiled.
Ch 15
After awhile the four went out to eat then they dropped the girls off at the hotel so they could get ready to go out that night. 'Kerrie, Kian is so good looking!' Jean exclaimed falling on her bed. Kerrie laughed walking into the bathroom. 'He likes you I can tell.' 'That is good.' Jean said looking frantically looking threw her clothes. Kerrie pulled her hair up in a high ponytail and walked into the room. She slid on a pair of jeans and a spagitti strap tank top. 'What should I wear?' Jean said looking at her bag now all over the floor. 'We're going to a bar not a club so wear something comfortable.' 'Ok.' She decided on a pair of khakis and a halter top. The girls walked down to the lobby to see Jean's sister Bridget trying to pick up a waiter. When Kian and Shane came in Jean kissed Kian. He was shocked but responded. Bridgett walked over. 'Jean, found a boyfriend so fast?' 'Maybe.' She smirked taking Kian's hand as they walked out. Kerrie and Shane tried not to laugh but they did. Once they got outside they burst out. 'That was so funny. Kian, you should have seen your face.' Kerrie laughed as Kian blushed. 'Who was that?' 'My sister Bridget.' 'You two look a little alike.' They drove to a bar down the street and when they walked in they got seats at the back. 'Mark, Lauren, Nicky, and Georgina should be here soon.' 'Very cool. What about Bryan?' 'He never comes out anymore.' Kian said bummed out. 'Kian, he has a daughter he needs to take care of.' Shane said. 'Yea, but he's no fun anymore.' 'Your just mad because you think your losing your best friend.' 'I am not. I'm there for Bryan.' He said defensively. Kerrie rolled her eyes and went to get a drink and Jean followed. 'Fight a lot?' 'No, I haven't see them fight. It's usually Shane and Bryan.' 'Ok well it's all good.' Jean took a sip of a beer.
Ch 16
Back at the table. 'Shane, don't get pissed at me because you can't have Kerrie.' He said as Shane stood up. 'It's not that.' 'I bet.' Kian said standing up also. 'You wouldn't know.' 'Maybe I would. It's good to see for once everything doesn't go your way.' Shane raised his fist and punched Kian in the jaw. They two started fighting as Nicky and Mark ran over to them breaking them up. Kian wiped blood off his lower lip and walked over to the bar. 'What was that?' 'He was just pissing me off.' Shane said sitting down and resting his head in his hands. 'I don't know what's gotten into me.' He said quietly. 'Your in love.' Nicky said sitting down. 'It's the obvious?' 'Yea.' 'But she loves Liam and I want her to be happy.' 'Give it time.' Shane mumbled something in Gaelic and walked towards the bar. 'Ki, I'm sorry.' 'Whatever.' 'I really am.' 'Fine, ok. Now leave me alone.' He said taking the last gulp of a beer. Jean went over to Kian as Kerrie turned to Shane. 'Where did you learn how to fight?' She smirked. 'Hey, don't make fun of me.' 'No, you held your own. I was surprised.' 'You thought I was a wimp?' 'No.' She said then started laughing as she nodded. 'Then you have a lot to learn.' Jean and Kian went to a table as Shane and Kerrie walked outside with their drinks. They walked around then came back to find Jean and Kian both drunk. 'Ok, come on guys.' Kerrie said helping Jean up.
Ch 17
'I can handle myself.' Jean slurred as she stood up. 'Ok, come on we gotta et you sobered up or your mom will kill us.' 'We're legal drinking age.' 'Here but not at home.' Kerrie said. 'Yea, but you and Liam drink all the time!' 'Jean, be quiet.' 'Don't get pissey because you can't fuck him!' Everyone looked at her as Kerrie turned and walked outside. She reached to the bottom of her bag to find a pack of cigarettes that had only two gone. She pulled one out along with her lighter. Nicky and Mark came outside. 'We didn't know you smoked.' 'I don't.' She said taking a puff. 'Ok, then what are you doing now?' 'Relieving stress so I don't kill Jean.' 'Ok.' Jean came out. 'Give me one!' She whined. 'No.' Kerrie said taking her last puff as she put it out. Shane came out with Kian half unconscious. 'How many did he drink?' 'Not a clue. Where we going?' 'For a drive.' 'Good.' 'You two better not get sick in my car.' Shane said helping Kian into the car. 'Windows down and you two sitting by them. 'Ok Dad.' Kian laughed as Jean did the same. The ride threw the country side was filled with Kian and Jean giggling at stupid things and kissing.
Ch 18
At 1 Jean was able to walk straight so they went back to the hotel. 'Thanks Shane. Sorry about her.' 'Sorry about him. Call me sometime tomorrow.' 'Ok, bye.' Her and Jean walked into the hotel and walked into their room unnoticed. They girls fell asleep and didn't wake up till the next afternoon around 3. Jean laid in bed. 'Aspirin.' 'Get it yourself.' Kerrie muttered reaching for the phone. 'Calling Liam?' 'For your info yes.' Jean stumbled into the bathroom and got ready. When Kerrie finished her call she did the same. 'What we doing tonight?' 'Going swimming.' 'Are the men coming?' 'Let me call Shane.' She called him and they were going to meet them at the pool. The girls went into the pool and soon the two guys got there. Jean and Kian were talking as Kerrie stood against the wall. 'Long night?' 'Kinda, I just woke up about 2 hours ago.' 'I was up at 10.' 'You're used to no sleep. I need like at least 9 hours.' 'You got way more then that.' 'I know and I'll be up all night.' 'Doubt that. I think after this you'll go back to sleep.' 'Maybe. It looks like those two are hitting it off.' Kerrie said looking at them splashing eachother. 'Yea. They deserve it.' 'Defiantly. Jean has dealt with one to many assholes.' 'Same with Kian.'
Ch 19
The rest of the week seemed to short. Kian and Shane took the girls to Dublin to see the other guys before they had to go back. The plane ride was silent both reflecting on the fun they had. When it landed Kerrie bolted off the plane to see Liam standing there with flowers. She jumped into his arms as Jean laughed, feeling a little jealous that Kian wasn't there with her. Kerrie went with Liam and Jean went back with her family. At Kerrie's house she told all the funny stories that could be shared then her and Liam went for a walk. 'I missed you.' He said putting an arm around her shoulder and pulling her close. 'I missed you too.' 'Now what else happened that you didn't want to tell your parents?' He asked as they each sat on a swing in a park. 'The first night we got there Jean got wasted and so we had to bring around Sligo while her and Kian sobered up. Jean and Kian hooked up which left me sleeping in the room with Bridget and Mike the whole time.' 'Mike?' 'Jean's little brother.' 'Oh ok. What else?' 'That's basically it.' 'Sounds like fun. Do you have a lot of school work to make up?' 'No, all the teachers gave me it and I did it on the plane and when I had free time.' 'Always on top of things.' 'Yea, so how was everything here?' 'Same as always.'
Ch 20
The next month was the same as most others. One day Jean stood in work as the 5 guys of Westlife came in. She hugged Kian. 'Hey Jean, is Kerrie here?' Asked Shane. 'She just went to the store, she should be back any second.' They all sat in the chair as they got caught up. Kerrie walked threw the door with a bag. 'I'm here with Heaven!' She said not noticing who was sitting there. Jean motioned to them as Kerrie gave Bryan who was sitting closest to her a hug. 'Hey guys, why didn't you say you were coming?' She said going down the line. 'We wanted to surprise you.' Bryan said as she walked behind the counter. 'I could have brought you some Midnight Fudge Cake.' 'Huh?' 'You've never had this?' They all shook there heads. 'I'll have to take you guys to the 99. You gotta have this. How long are you here for?' '4 days.' Just then Liam walked in. 'Hey baby!' 'Liam!' She said running over to him and giving him a kiss as Shane's face fell. 'When did you get home?' 'This morning. Jean told me to come up for the long weekend.' 'Very cool. Liam this is Westlife. Guys this is Liam. Bryan, Kian, Nicky, Mark, and Shane.' 'So this is Liam.' Bryan said. 'And this is the famous Westlife. You all look much taller in person.' 'So what are you guys doing tonight?' 'Nothing.' 'Kerrie, I was hoping we could go to the movies.' Liam said. 'We all can go.' She said. They all agreed on a time and they were going to pick them up at their hotel.
Ch 21
At 7 they met at their hotel. Kerrie, Shane, Bryan, and Nicky were in one car. Then Liam, Jean, Kian, and Mark were in the other. When they got to the movies they went to go see 'Glitter'. Threw out the movie there were popcorn fights. Liam and Kerrie sat 2 rows back while Jean and Kian sat two rows in front of the others. After the move they all stood outside. 'What next?' Liam said putting an arm around Kerrie's waist. 'Mini golf!' Jean shrieked as she ran towards the cars. 'She's loves it.' Kerrie laughed as they split up into two groups and drove up route1 to the mini golfing place. The teams where Kerrie, Liam, and Shane. Kian, Jean, and Bryan. Then Nicky and Mark. Bryan, Kian, and Jean lost so they had to buy everyone else ice cream. 'I can't believe we lost. It's all because of Bryan!' Jean laughed. 'Yea, McFadden.' 'Shut up, your only taking her side because she's your girl.' Bryan laughed as Kian shot him a look. Once they finished the ice cream they went back to the guys hotel to go swimming in the pool. Jean and Kian were sitting over by the pool talking while Kerrie and Liam sat in the hot tub joking around. Shane stood by the pool and watched Kerrie as she laughed. He shook his head and started in the pool. Bryan looked to Nicky and Mark who followed him into the locker room.
Ch 22
'We gotta do something and fast?' 'We can't break them up.' Nicky said. 'I mean look at them they are in love.' 'Then we gotta get Shane to see that she's not for him right now and to move on.' 'Then why don't we get him out of here?' Mark asked. 'He'll catch onto us.' Bryan said deep in thought. 'We should go clubbin' tomorrow night with out Liam and Kerrie so we can get him mind off her.' 'Sounds like a plan.' 'Yea.' They went back out to the pool as they saw Shane's back to where Liam and Kerrie were kissing. Nicky jumped into the pool, splashing Shane in the process. 'Watch it!' Shane sapped. 'Filan, calm down. I'm just trying to have some fun.' 'But there wasn't a need for that.' He made his way to the stairs and grabbed his towel as he left to go back to his room. Nicky shook his head. 'He needs help now.' He mouthed to Bryan as he laughed really loud causing Kerrie and Liam to looked up. 'Sorry.' He said jumping into the pool and Mark did the same as they three of them started a huge water fight. Kian and Jean soon joined in. Kerrie went to go talk to Shane and Liam went to go dry off.
Ch 23
Kerrie knocked on the door. 'Who the hell is it?' Shane yelled. 'It's Kerrie.' She heard the door being unlocked and then it was opened. 'Shane, are you ok?' She said noticing his puffy eyes. 'I'm fine. The chlorine just got into my eyes when Nicky jumped in.' He lied taking a seat on the bed. 'If something is bothering you tell me. Maybe I can help.' 'Ok.' 'Is is Liam. If it is they I can hang out with him and you guys separately.' 'It's not him. Nothing's bothering me.' 'Ok. I have tomorrow off. What do you want to do? Me and you can go hang out.' 'Anywhere is fine.' 'Ok, we can go for a drive down the Cape and see some fun stuff down there.' 'The other guys can come to.' 'No, just me and you. We can chill.' 'Its sounds good. I'm really tired and it's late so I better get to bed.' 'Ok, call me tomorrow when you want to go.' 'Alright. Bye.' Kerrie let herself out and shook her head as she bumped into Nicky. 'How's Shane?' 'He's upset over something. Can you talk to him? He won't talk to me about it.' 'I'll try. Liam is out in the car waiting. Jean took your car home about 10 minutes ago. She was gonna leave the keys with your parents.' 'Ok, thanks.' She walked down the hallway and outside. She got into the car with Liam. 'Did Nicky get you?' 'I was just leaving. Something is up with Shane.' 'Don't worry about it. I'm sure the guys know what it is and how to take care of it.'
Ch 24
Once Kerrie got home she found her keys on the table and her parents gone. 'Kerrie, we went to Aunt Peg's house to help her with a power outage. We won't be home till the morning at least. Jean left your keys sorry we couldn't wait any longer. Love, Mom.' Liam smirked at her as he started to chased her down the stairs to the downstairs apartment where she staid. The next morning Kerrie woke up in Liam's arms. The phone rang. 'You can get it.' She said as he reached for it. 'Hello?' He said drowsily. 'Hi is Kerrie there?' 'Hey Shane, here she is.' He handed her the phone. 'Hello?' 'Hey Kerrie, are you ready?' 'I actually just woke up. Give me about a hour and I'll be over to get you.' 'Ok, bye.' 'Bye.' She hung up the phone and Shane slammed down his. 'Why does he have to be with her?' He muttered walking into the other room. Nicky was watching TV. 'What's the matter?' 'Liam, answered her phone.' 'And?' 'She just woke up.' 'That doesn't mean anything.' 'I bet it does.' 'Shane, calm down. They're in love.' 'But him!-' 'Shane, they are in love. I don't know what you can do to change her mind that won't make her hate you.' 'I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way. I just don't want to see her get hurt by him.' Shane took a seat in a chair and watched the TV as Nicky looked at him worried. Bryan and Kian came in the room joking around.
Ch 25
'Guys, we're going clubbing tonight!' Bryan laughed as Kian started dancing. 'Yea, I heard about a few good clubs.' Nicky added. 'Don't all you guys have commitments. Plus me and Kerrie are going somewhere I don't know when we'll be back.' 'You'll be back before 9.' 'I'm not gonna promise that.' 'Fine, be a party pooper.' Kian said dancing around the room. 'I'm not a party pooper.' Shane said standing up. 'Fine, then come tonight and prove me wrong.' He said standing still. 'I will.' Shane said walking into the other room and slamming the door. Bryan took a seat on the edge of the bed. 'He is getting worse.' 'He'll have fun tonight I'll make sure of it.' Kian said picking up the phone to call back home. Mark came into the room tiredly. 'It's almost 10 and your still tired?' Nicky laughed. 'Let me be. I called home last night and was on the phone for awhile.' 'Whose fault is that?' Nicky said turned around to watch the rest of Jerry Springier. Kerrie had just gotten out of the shower and Liam was putting on his shoes. 'When will you be back? We should go out tonight.' 'I have no idea.' 'When you get back call me and we can set something up.' 'Yea.' She put on a pair of jeans and a sweater then slid on her Doc Martins before giving Liam a quick kiss. 'I better get going. You can let yourself out.' 'I'm ready to go now.' 'Want a ride down the street?' 'No, I'm all set.' 'Bye.' They walked out and he walked down the street as she got into her car.
Ch 26
Kerrie pulled up to the hotel 10 minutes late and then ran to the elevator. When she knocked on his door he opened it quickly. 'Hey, your late.' He said looking at his watch as she laughed. 'Aren't I always.' The two walked out to her car and got in. she popped in her BSB CD as they drove towards the Express Way. 'Is this your favorite CD of all time?' He laughed as she sang along to a mixed CD with all her fav. BSB songs on it. 'Yea, they are the best. No offense.' 'None taken, I wish we were like them.' 'And who would you be?' 'Let's see. Bryan is a Nick wanna be. Kian wishes he is AJ. Nicky is like Howie kinda. Mark I have no idea.' 'Brian or Kevin? I'd say Kevin.' 'I guess.' 45 minutes later they were on a bridge that was backed up with traffic. 'Can we make a pit stop at my grandmothers grave on the way back?' 'You didn't even have to ask. That is totally cool with me.' 'Thanks, I just never get to go as much as I'd like. She was the person I always looked up to.' 'She and Peggy were friends right?' 'Yea they have the same name.' 'So that's where you got your Confirmation name?' 'Yea, I just wish she was alive to see it.' She said sadly. 'I bet she'd be proud of you.' 'I hope so.' Once they got off they bridge they went to a few outlets buying a few things her and there then they went to Friendly's for lunch.
Ch 27
After a few hours of walking around they got some flowers and went to her grandmothers grave. Her eyes watered as Shane hugged her. 'God, I just miss her so much. It doesn't even seem like 9 years.' She sobbed into his shoulder. After a few minutes she calmed down and they took a seat on a bench. Kerrie soon cooled off and they headed home. It was 4 so they hit traffic. Kerrie got off at an exit and went back roads as they got back in half the time. 'What are you doing tonight?' Kerrie asked pulling up to the hotel. 'The guys want me to go out. Go have fun with Liam.' He said putting a fake smile as his heart broke. 'I will. Have fun and call me tomorrow up work and we can think of something to do.' 'Ok. Bye.' He got out as she waved and headed home. Shane walked into his room and fell on the bed. 'Why do I have to fall in love so easily?' He asked as Bryan walked into his room. 'So you do love her?' 'Yea, can't you tell?' He said sitting up. 'Yea, I was just waiting for you to admit it. Buy me anything?' He asked looking in a bag.' 'No, you have your own money to spend.' Shane laughed. 'Yea, I do. It's 5 so we're gonna go out to eat they go to a pub then to a club.' 'Sounds fun. I'll get ready.' Shane headed into the bathroom to get ready.
Ch 28
Once Kerrie got into the door Jean ran over to her. 'Get your ass ready. Your coming clubbing with me and the guys.' 'I was gonna go out with Liam.' 'He's coming so get ready. We'll meet you at the club in like 2 hours.' Jean ran out the door and Kerrie walked into her room falling on the bed. Kayte came into the room. 'Guess what I'm coming! I get to finally meet Mark!' 'How your 16 and it's 18 plus?' 'I got a fake ID from a friend.' 'Kayte, I was gonna have them come over tomorrow.' 'I wanted to meet him when they came here!' 'Fine, but you gotta ask the rents.' 'Already did. Now help me pick out an outfit.' Kayte went to Kerrie's closet. Kerrie laughed and grabbed her new sparkly jeans out of her hand and tossed them on the bed along with a black halter top. Kerrie handed Kayte a pair of black pants and a black tube top. Kayte went into her room as Kerrie dashed into the bathroom. An hour later Kerrie was ready with her hair curled and left down, she had sparkly make-up and high platform boots. Kerrie was doing Kayte's hair as she straightened it and did her make-up lightly. Kayte spazed out as she dashed around the house nervously.
Ch 29
Liam picked up Jean after Kerrie and Kayte and they headed into the club. Kian was at the bar and Jean hugged him. 'Kerrie, this must be Kayte?' 'Yea. She somehow got the parents to let her come.' Kian laughed. 'Come on lets go meet the others.' Kerrie said as they all walked over to the table where Bryan was downing a beer. 'Hey guys. This is my sister Kayte.' Shane nudged Nicky. 'You didn't tell me she was coming.' He whispered. 'I didn't know. Kian must have set it up.' Mark was looking Kayte over as she blushed. 'I can tell she's a model. I wish she was in Europe.' Kayte turned bright red as Kian pulled jean onto the dance floor. Kerrie took Mark's seat as him and Kayte went to dance. 'McFadden, how many have you drunk?' She asked eyeing the 3 glasses infront of him. 'No idea. Kerry won't let me at home.' 'Come on let's dance.' Liam said grabbing Kerrie's hand. Shane went to the bar and got another drink. Less then a half an hour Bryan was in a cab back to the hotel with Nicky. Shane was at the bar feeling tipsy. He looked at the table to see Mark and Kayte holding hands talking, Jean and Kian were dancing, and then looked to see Kerrie and Liam dancing closely. He turned around and bumped into a girl. 'Opps.. sorry.' He said. 'It's ok. No harm done. I'm Erin.' 'Shane.' They two started talking and within the hour they had left to go talk somewhere else.
Ch 30
The next day Kerrie found herself next to Liam as he snored softly. She fixed her shirt that was slightly to the side as she looked at the clock it was 8. Kerrie got up and went into the bathroom of the downstairs apt of her house and took a shower. After she got dressed Liam was up. He put his arms around her waist. 'Have fun last night?' 'I always have fun with you.' He said kissing the top of her head. 'I wonder that happened with Kayte and Mark, hopefully he isn't upstairs or the rents will flip.' 'I gotta go home and get dressed for work. I'll stop by after.' 'Ok.' She gave him a kiss before going up the back stairs to the top floor. No one was up there so she went back to the second floor to find Kayte and Mark watching Sponge Bob Square Pants laughing. 'Hey you two.' 'Hey, where's Liam?' 'He had to go to work. What are you doing today?' 'I dunno' Mark shrugged. 'How about you cook for them before they leave.' 'Sounds good. Can you call and tell everyone to meet up here in about 2 hours I gotta figure out what to cook.' 'Chicken!' 'Fine, I'll go down the store.' 'Ok, captain.' Kayte said saluting her as she walked down the stairs. Kerrie got all the supplies then went to the check out when she got home she found a note saying that Mark and Kayte had gone back to his hotel for a swim and they'd be back with everyone else.
Ch 31
Kerrie went to work peeling potatoes and then staring desert. She made a chocolate cake with cream filling that was always a favorite. Before long everything was set and people started coming. Kerrie just finished fixing the downstairs apartment as everyone came in. 'We're so lucky someone can cook.' Jean laughed as she walked into he kitchen. 'Oh you made the cake!' She squealed as the others walked into the kitchen. 'If your a good cook you should come on the road with us. God knows we could use one.' Bryan laughed looking at Shane who seemed to be in his own world. Once everything was done they all dug in except Kerrie who went to go talk to Shane who was sitting in a back room looking out the window. 'What's on your mind?' 'Um.. nothing.' 'Something is. Tell me.' 'I can't here.' 'Fine, let's go for a walk.' The two walked down the street then took a seat in a park. 'Now, what's on your mind?' 'Umm. I can't believe I'm gonna say this about you!' He said looking down his face red. Kerrie was silent not knowing what to say, the time past and son it was 15 minutes later. 'What about me?' She asked softly. 'How I wish you were with me instead of Liam, I know I shouldn't but that's how I feel.' Kerrie didn't reply so Shane leaned over and kissed her but she pushed in away. 'This can't happen. I love Liam, I'm sorry.' She took off running back to the house crying. When she ran up the steps she ran into Liam. 'Kerrie, what's the matter?' She didn't answer but just ran up to her room slamming the door behind her as Shane came running after her.
Ch 32
Shane shook his head as Liam looked at him. 'What happened?' 'Umm… nothing.' 'What the f*ck did you do to her?' He asked angrily. Shane just walked past him. 'Guys, I'm going back to the hotel.' He said. 'Wait up, I'll go with you I gotta pack.' Nicky said following him. Liam walked up the stairs towards Kerrie's room. 'Ker, are you ok? Did he hurt you because if he did-' 'No, I'm fine.' She sobbed. 'Then talk to me please.' 'I can't I just have to be alone.' Liam sat on the floor outside her room for the next 2 hours trying to get her to come out of the room but she wouldn't. He finally went downstairs to find the other sitting around. 'What happened?' Asked Jean. 'No idea she won't say. Did Shane say anything?' 'No.' Mark and Kian could feel the tension. 'Girls, we better go pack.' 'Ok, we'll stop by before you leave.' Jean said giving Kian and hug and a kiss. Once they left Jean turned to Liam. 'I'll go talk to her.' 'Me too.' Kayte and Jean went up the stairs. 'Girly, let us in.' Jean said. 'I can't. I just have to think.' 'Everyone is gone and Liam is down the apt. Please talk to us.' The door unlocked and the two girls walked into the dark room. Kerrie sat curled up on her bed with her eyes swollen and face red.
Ch 33
'Whatever I say can't leave this room. Ok?' Both girls nodded as Kayte locked the door and the bot sat in chairs. 'Me and Shane went for a walk as you both know so he could talk about what was bothering me. We got to a park and he said it was me.' She wiped the tears forming in her eyes. 'It bothered him that I was with Liam and not him. When I didn't say anything he kissed me.' She broke down again as Jean got up and hugged her as Kayte sat on the other end of the bed. 'It's ok. You didn't do anything.' 'But this ruined our friendship.' 'You can talk to Liam, he'll understand-' 'No, I can't tell him.' 'Then talk to Shane-' 'I can't. This is just so hard to deal with. So both of you are going to keep your mouths shut and forget that I told you that.' 'Ok. Were going to go to the airport to say good-bye. We'll just say you didn't feel well.' Kerrie nodded. 'I'll go down stairs.' She went into the bathroom to wash her face and tried to cover up her eyes and face. When she looked decent she went down stairs and took a seat next to Liam. 'If your hungry food's in the fridge.' 'No, I'm all set. I understand if you don't want to talk about it.' 'I don't. It was just a girl problem, it had nothing to due with Shane he was just there.' 'Ok.' She walked out to the kitchen as he followed. She started cleaning up and he helped.
Ch 34
'Don't you want to go to the airport to say good-bye?' 'No, they'll understand.' 'Ok. You made the cake?' 'Yea.' He grabbed a plate and a fork along with a knife and cut a piece as he pulled her onto his lap. 'I don't want to go back to school. What would you say if I go back Wednesday.' 'You'll miss all the work-' 'I have my books at home I can catch up, plus I could have a friend e-mail me them.' 'It's your choice.' He kissed her. 'I want to stay here with you.' She smiled as they kissed again. At the airport Jean and Kayte drove in Jean's car with Mark and Kian. 'Kerrie, isn't coming?' Kian asked. 'She doesn't feel well.' 'Ok. Did she say what happened with Shane because he isn't talking.' 'No, she didn't.' When they got to the airport the girls walked to the terminal with the guys as they all said good-bye. 'Where's the cook?' Asked Bryan. 'She didn't feel well.' Kayte said hugging him as Shane dazed off. 'Oh tell her I hope she feels better and to give me a ring. Her cooking is was great.' 'Yea, I wish I could cook like that.' Nicky said. 'Her and Liam both can cook.' Kayte said as Shane's eyes became cold. 'Bye. Call us soon and we can plan our next trip or whatever.' Mark said to Kayte as she hugged him bye. The guys got on the plane as Jean and Kayte walked out to her car in silence.
Ch 35
5 months later Kayte, Jean, Kerrie, and Liam went to England to visit the guys while they were recording. Kerrie spent time with Nicky, Bryan, Kian and mark but not with Shane. The two hadn't spoken since that night and he was started to crumble from the inside while she built a wall around her and Liam. Kerrie had just finished high school and was going to Umass Boston in the fall. They were on the top of the Eiffel Tower the day before they were going to leave when Liam took her hand. 'Kerrie, I've loved you since the first time we went out and it's only grown. You're the girl meant for me and I asked your parents and it's ok with them so will you marry me?' He asked getting on one knee as her eyes watered. She nodded as he slipped a huge diamond on her finger and they kissed and the others clapped. Shane watched from the other side and turned to walk inside as the tears spilled from his eyes. He knew he had to move on but something inside him told him not to, she'd need him. Shane walked into the bathroom and splashed water on his face as tired to get himself together before going back outside. The two planned to get married within the next year with a small wedding.
Ch 36
Kerrie had sent out invitations to everyone. She even called Shane to try to resolve their problem but he never called her back or replied to the invite. The wedding was beautiful in St. Mary's with her favorite priest marring them. The other Westlifers were there along with Kerry, Molly, Ronan and Georgina. Peggy, Peter, Kathy, and her boss Carmen were there along with family. Kayte and Jean were both maids of honor and Liam's cousin Chair was the best man. Kerrie's other friends Danielle, Mary, Andrea, and Ashley were the brides maids then Joel, Matt, Joey, Jerry, and Tom were ushers. At the reception everyone danced and the 4 guys sang with Ronan stepping in for Shane. When it was over Kerrie and Liam were off to Aruba on a cruise. Shane laid on his bed in Ireland looking at the clocking thinking about how the wedding must have been and how she would have looked. He looked at the pictures of them together as he started to write a letter but only threw it in the trash. Shane sighed and fell back on his bed again as he started crying even though he thought the tears were dry.
Ch 37
Kerrie looked at the package that came to her work from Shane. They hadn't talked since he kissed her and when he didn't reply to the wedding invite she figured it was the end of their friendship. Kerrie took her lunch break and went to listen to the tape. 'Hey Kerrie, it's me Shane. I hope you still remember me-' She stopped it as the tears filled her eyes. Kerrie knew that she would have to see him as Jean and Kian's wedding the next month but she would worry about that later. Kerrie rubbed her growling stomach and went to go meet Kayte for lunch. Her sister gave her a hug. 'Wow, you getting big already.' Kayte said. 'Yea, it's hard eating for two.' Laughed Kerrie. 'You know you love it.' 'Yea, I do. So doesn't Jean.' 'Yea, figures you two would have kids at the same time.' Kayte said as they were seated. 'But am I really fat? I'm only 4 months.' 'No, I was joking. I still can't see you married and having a baby.' 'Me too. Everything happed so fast.' 'Are you sure your ok to go to Ireland next month?' 'It's not in Ireland. Jean was here when she found out so Kian wouldn't let her get on a plane. They moved it here.' 'Really?' 'Yea. Kian is very excited.' 'Not as much as Liam.' 'Yea, he thinking we're gonna have a big family but this is killing me.' She said laughing. 'Don't worry you'll be a good mom. You love kids.' Kayte said. The two continued catching up on the events Kayte had missed while in NY for an audition and a few photo shoots.
Ch 38
That month seemed to pass way to fast for Kerrie. She was the maid on honor and Bryan was the best man. Kerrie sat in her room with the tape in a set of headphones about to out it on when Liam enters the room just out of the shower. 'Hey baby. How are you feeling?' 'Good. So is the little one.' She said resting a hand on her stomach. Liam gave her a kiss before heading to his closet. 'If you don't want to go to the practice I'm sure Jean would understand.' 'I'm fine. Plus it's only up the street. She's in the same boat here.' 'I know but I don't want you to over work your self. Like the doctor said you have to take it easy.' 'I am. I'm not working and I'm ready to crawl up the walls I'm so board since there is nothing to do.' 'Ok. I'll drive you up there.' 'No, it's ok. Kian and Jean are gonna pick me up.' 'Ok. I'll be back later.' 'Ok.' He gave her a kiss before going back into the bathroom as she got up with her hand on her back as she took the headphones and walked into the other room. She sat on the couch and put on the headphones listening to the tape. 'Hey Kerrie, it's me Shane. I hope you still remember me, I'm sorry for not coming to your wedding but I hope so see you at Kian and Jean's. I hear you and Liam are having a baby, I'm happy for you. This may be weird for us to see eachother again but I want us to be friends. I'm sorry for that night and if I could take it back I would, not for me but for you. Please forgive me for being such a jerk and let's try to be friend again. Love always ~ Shane.' She shut it off and wiped the tears off her cheeks as Liam walked into the room.
Ch 39
'Baby, are you ok?' 'Yea, I just heard a really nice song on the radio.' 'Ok. I better get to work. I'll see you tonight.' 'Bye.' As the door shut she walked into the bathroom and washed her face as she heard the beep of a horn. She walked outside and got into the car. 'Hey Jean, Hello Kian.' She said happily. 'Hey.' They said in unison as the three laughed. 'Are you guys ready for the big day?' 'Yea, I just hope I fit into the dress and don't look like a whale.' Jean laughed. 'Hunny, you could never look like a whale.' 'Jean, your not fat. Even when she was a size 5 she'd say this.' Kerrie said as they pulled into the church parking lot. 'Hey, it kinda sucks when you can't fit into anything.' 'Please, your hardly showing.' Kerrie smirked getting out of the car. 'Yea, I am. Your skinner then I am.' 'I highly doubt that. I'm 2 clothes sizes bigger then you are normally.' They two girls continued arguing as the three of them walked into the church. Everyone else was there. 'Late as usual.' Laughed Jackie, Jean's mom. 'Sorry, I couldn't find any clothes that fit.' She said looking at Kerrie. 'You two better not start.' Ellen, Kerrie's mom piped in. 'These girls and the hormones can argue for hours I heard them.' 'Mom-' Kerrie started but was cut off by Fr. Mahoney walking out. 'Good everyone is here. Jean Marie so nice of you to join us.' He said. 'Sorry Fr. I couldn't find any clothes to wear that fit.' 'Then you should have waited till you were married to have sex and then you wouldn't have had this problem.' 'Excuse me.' She said putting her hands on her hips. 'This isn't the 1940s when you grew up. Maybe I'm not as good as person as you thought but you don't have to comment on this child inside of me.' Everyone was silent waiting for her to finish. 'I asked you to marry us not analyze what I did wrong in life. If you can't do that then I'm sure I can find another priest.' He was speechless. 'Ms. Chaission, I-I would like an apology. I'm a priest not a man on the street you can talk to. Maybe this man might take that but I'm certainly not going to.' 'Fine, screw you. I'm outta here.' With that she turned and walked out of the church as he did the same in the other direction. Jackie ran after the priest as Kerrie went after Jean.
Ch 40
Kian walked out of the church to see Jean crying on Kerrie's shoulder. 'That was so bad. I can't believe I did that. Not he's got going to marry us.' She sobbed. 'Your mom is talking to him. I'm sure he'll understand.' 'He won't. You know him Kerrie. He wants me to be more like you.' 'Jean things just happened in that order for me. If we were in opposite situations he may have said that to me.' 'He likes you better. I'm just the trouble maker.' 'Jean, don't say that. You know your not.' 'Yea, I am.' 'You have self confidence. Remember? Your not 15 anymore.' Kian looked at her questioningly. 'When she was 15 she was like a size 5 and she thought she was fat and ugly.' 'I was a size 7.' 'Let's to start this now. Let's try to work this out quickly so you will get married tomorrow.' 'Ok.' She wiped her eyes as Kerrie went inside and Kian talked to Jean. Kerrie bumped into Shane as their eyes met they both moved apart quickly. 'Um. sorry.' She said nervously. 'Did you get the tape?' 'Yea, I just had the guts to listen to it this morning.' 'Do you forgive me?' 'Yea, but can we talk about this later. Because gotta make sure these two get married tomorrow.' 'Yea, anytime you want. I'll be around here for awhile visiting Peg and other family.' 'Ok.' She walked past him and towards the sanctuary.
Ch 41
Jackie was talking to Fr. Mahoney as Ellen tried to help but he wouldn't listen. Kerrie went over. 'Fr., will you please forgive Jean? It's the hormones.' 'I would like a very good apology before I decide.' 'Ok, I'll tell her.' 'She's very lucky to have someone care about her like you do.' He said as she smiled then walked outside. 'Jean, I talked to Fr. he would like a very good apology.' 'Here goes nothing.' She said taking a breath and walking inside slowly. Jean walked into the sanctuary with Kian and Kerrie behind her. 'Fr., I'm sorry for flipping out at you. It's due to the hormones and partly my disposition.' 'Jean Marie, I understand that and since I am here due to God's will you are forgiven. Now let's get to practicing.' Everyone got ready and practiced then went to Jackie's house before meeting a few others for supper. Kerrie sat outside when Shane came out. 'Your such the little miracle worker.' 'Not really, she would have done it for me.' 'But you were so calm.' 'I have to be, the doctors orders or this little guy won't stand a chance.' 'It's a boy?' 'Yea, I know it.' 'How does Liam feel about it?' 'He's so excited.' 'I would be too. How many months?' 'About 5.' 'You can hardly tell.' 'Yea right.' Just then Liam walked out. 'Hey man, long time no see.' Liam said standing next to Kerrie putting an arm around her waist.
Ch 42
Shane knew this would be the test weather he could stand it or not. 'How was the wedding? Sorry I couldn't come something came up with family.' 'It was perfect.' 'That's good you two deserve it and I'm sure you'll be good parents.' 'So Ker, I heard you saved the wedding?' 'No, it was nothing.' 'I'm sure. Your always so smart.' He said kissing the top of her head. Mark poked his head out the door. 'We're ready to go.' They all walked outside and everyone got into their cars to go to the restaurant. Kerrie was seated next to Jean and Bryan next to Kian then the families on both sides. It was really nice. The conversation was mostly about where they were going to live what they were gonna name the baby who would be the god parents, it was going to be Kerrie and Bryan again. They then asked Kerrie about her. 'I would like Jean and Shane.' She said without thinking as he was shocked, Liam looked the same. After the restaurant they were going back to Jackie's but Kerrie and Liam went home. Kerrie laid on the bed. 'Why Shane? He hasn't been around lately.' 'Shane is a good friend. Why do you not like him?' 'I do but I mean he hasn't been around, I was thinking Kian.' 'Kian understands. I mean he didn't pick you or anything.' 'Bryan is his bestfriend!' 'I don't want to fight.' 'Baby, I'm sorry I didn't want to get you upset.' He said trying to follow her into the bathroom but she slammed the door in his face.
Ch 43
'Baby, don't be mad. Please come out and talk.' He begged. 'I don't' want to talk to you now.' She dialed the phone and got Jean. 'Hello?' She said chomping on some chips. 'Jean, he's being an ass.' 'Why?' she asked shoving some more chips in her mouth. 'He's pissed that I picked Shane for the godfather and not Kian.' 'Kian doesn't mind. He knows you and Shane are close.' 'He thinks since we haven't talked in while that he isn't worthy.' 'So you haven't talked to him in like a year, you have good reason. Did he ever apologize?' 'Yea, he sent me the tape remember?' 'Oh yea, so he's forgiven?' 'Yea.' 'You should come stay here.' 'Maybe.' 'Come on like old times, I'll kick Kian out of Bridgete's old bed and he can go sleep in the guest room.' 'Ok, I'll be over soon.' 'Lata, and bring some chocolate.' 'Hmm.. sound's good.' Kerrie hung up and phone and opened the door and Liam gave her a hug. 'Don't be mad.' 'I'm staying at Jackie's tonight.' 'No, I want you to stay here.' 'Please, let go of me.' He let her go as she mad her way over to the closet grabbing a bag and tossed her PJ's and a pair of sweats then grabbed a bunch of supplies. 'I'm not mad at you anymore, it's just me and Jean gotta spend sometime together. We are on the same wavelength.' 'Fine, I'll drive you.' 'Ok, we gotta stop at the store and get chocolate.' He smirked as he took her bag and the two walked out to the car. Liam ran into the store then they went to Jackie's house. Liam walked inside with her as Kian grumbled taking his stuff down to the basement.
Ch 44
'Egan, I'll help you.' Liam said grabbing a dropped sheet and pillow. 'Staying downstairs?' He asked following him. 'Yea, girl thing.' 'I just let her do as she wants I don't want my head missing.' Kian laughed. 'True.' 'But aren't you not spouse to see eachother that night anyway.' 'This is different condition. Yea know?' 'Yea. If you want you can stay at our place.' 'Naww. I'll stay here incase they need anything.' 'If yea want. I better get back and get some sleep.' 'Ok, see yea tomorrow and thanks for doing the cooking thing.' 'No prob. It's my job anyway.' He said walking up the stairs and going to the car. The next day as the 6 months went by quickly and well. On St. Patrick's Day both girls had the babies. Kerrie had a boy Liam Jr. and Jean had a girl Lilly. The baptism went perfect Jean and Shane for Liam Jr. and Kerrie and Bryan for Lilly. 3 months later Jean and Kian went on a small hunny moon to Florida for 3 days while Kerrie watched Lilly. Shane was back in Ireland and soon Jean and Kian would be moving there too. Kerrie was miserable loosing her two bestfriends, Liam saw this and along with taking care of his son he was falling apart also. His job was wearing him down, he hardly slept due to Liam Jr. being awake all night crying and Kerrie not doing anything. Kayte saw the two and knew if something didn't happen the two would split.
Ch 45
It was Liam Jr.'s first Birthday and Shane was in the US working on his CD so he came up and Jean and Kerrie each videotaped the day and sent the tape to the other. Kerrie would be going to Ireland with Shane in less then two weeks and Liam Jr. was going with them for 3 weeks. The time when the two left Liam felt a little relieved and he took a break from work as he drifted off to sleep. He did this for about a week then one day when he didn't answer the phone his sister got worried. She went to their house and went into the back door that was open. Liam was asleep on the couch and had a faint pulse. She called 911 then her parents. 'Mom & dad, get to the hospital I just found Liam and the EMTs are on the way.' She was in tears as she hung up, she was a nurse and knew he wasn't watching his diabetes as he should and this could be it. Once at the hospital he was rushed off as MaryLynn sat in the waiting room sobbing. Ed and Mary showed up as the 3 waited for the news. 3 house later he was in a coma and they doubted he would live. Mary contacted Ellen who called Kerrie. 'Kerrie, hunny-' She sobbed. 'Mom, what's the matter are you ok? Dad? Kayte?' 'No Liam-Liam's in a coma and they don't think he will make it.' 'No, no he can't be he always watches his health.' She said in disbelief.' 'Come home as soon as you can.' 'Ok.' She hung up the phone as she started crying. Jean hugged her. 'I'll get you a flight and you can tell me while we pack for you and Jr.
Ch 46
Jean got a flight and Shane said he'd go with her. Jean was in shock and planned to take Lilly and Kian on the flight after hers home. Kerrie's flight left in an hour so they rushed to the airport with half of their things and got on the plane. They whole plane ride she cried on Shane's shoulder blaming herself for not taking care of him. They three got a cab to the hospital and Kerrie rushed in hugging Mary, Ed, and MaryLynn then mad her way to his room while Shane took Jr. Kerrie held Liam's hand as she squeezed it. 'God, please don't leave me. Jr. needs his daddy, I need you.' She sobbed as tears feel on his hand as she felt a light squeeze. His eyes opened weakly. 'I love you.' He whispered. 'I love you too.' 'Can I see my son one last time?' 'No, your gonna make it.' She said going to the door. 'Shane! Dr. he's awake!' She yelled as everyone came into the room. Liam smiled as his son called 'Daddy!' The Drs. said anything could happen in the next two hours. Shane walked around outside singing to Jr. as he drifted off to sleep. He walked by the room to see Kerrie standing in the doorway with swollen eyes and tears down her face. 'This is all my fault.' She muttered sliding down the wall in tears.
Ch 47
Jean ran down the hallway. 'How is he?' She asked Shane. 'Anything could happen in the next two hours but at first they said it wasn't looking good.' Jean walked into the room to see Liam sitting up trying to get out of bed to help Kerrie up. Ellen walked over to them and took Liam from Shane as Kian walked down the hall with Lilly who was also sleeping. Jean was talking to Kerrie as she helped her into a chair. 'Baby, don't cry. This isn't your fault it's mine. I should have watched myself better.' Kian came in as Jean got Kerrie to go for a short walk. Ellen and Jackie had taken Lilly and Jr. back to their houses to sleep. When Kerrie and Jean returned from there walk they saw nurses and doctors running into the room. Kerrie sprinted to the door but was stopped by Shane. 'You can't go in they are trying to stabilize him.' He said as she broke down in sobs. After about an hour a nurse walked out shaking her head. 'Mrs. Lynch, I'm sorry they did all they could.' She run past her and into the room to see someone unplugging the machines. She fell to the floor as Jean walked in slowly. Kian called Ellen and Jackie then the rest of the guys. Kerrie was a mess, when his body was wheeled out of the room she stood there looking at where it was.
Ch 48
The wake was 2 days later Kerrie looked like death, she hadn't eaten or slept since then and started smoking again. All the guys had come from Ireland as did friends and family. Almost the whole town was there and she stood there with a blank look on her face next his sister and parents. Kayte held Liam as he squirmed trying to get out of her arms. After the funeral the next morning, he was buried in Everett and everyone gathered at Ellen & John's house. Kerrie sat on the couch with Jr. in her lap, Jean was next to her with Lilly. 'Girl, don't worry I'll stay here with you until everything is set.' 'You don't have to stop your life for me. Kian will need to go back to Ireland, you can go back with him.' 'No, he said it was ok to stay here. He will for awhile and so isn't Shane staying.' Kerrie smiled at Jean as the people started to leave. Kerrie was dreading going back to the house. She hadn't been there since before she left for Ireland. Shane had went and got some of her and Jr's stuff and the three of them stayed in the downstairs apartment. The next day she, Jean, and Shane were going to go to the house to start going threw some of his stuff.
Ch 49
Kerrie lay awake in bed as Shane wandered around after coming out of the bathroom. He sat on the couch bed as he heard a sniffle. 'Ker, are you ok? Do you need anything?' 'No, I'm fine.' She sobbed. 'No your not.' He walked over to the bed and sat next to her rubbing her back. 'I just can't believe he's gone.' She sobbed sitting up and hugging him. She fell asleep in his arms. Shane looked down at her as he heard Jr. calling for daddy. He quickly got up and walked over to his crib. 'Shh... Uncle Shane is here.' 'Daddy.' He said louder. 'No, daddy isn't here. Be quiet so you don't wake up your mom.' 'Daddy!' He yelled as Kerrie sat up in bed. She stumbled over to Shane and took Jr. 'Daddy's gone and its all mommy's fault.' 'Daddy!' He said again. 'No daddy is gone.' She said with tears threating to fall. 'Want daddy.' 'Liam Patrick please stop.' She said with the tears falling from her eyes. 'Sad?' He asked. She nodded as Shane took him and walked into the other room turning on the light. 'Mommy sad?' Jr. asked. 'She misses daddy.' 'Want daddy.' He said with tears rolling down his cheeks. 'Daddy's in heaven.' 'You daddy?' Shane's mouth dropped. 'No, I'm Uncle Shane.' Kerrie stood in the door way. 'Let him call you daddy.' She said taking a seat next to them. 'Daddy!' The little boy squealed putting his little hands on Shane's face. Shane looked to Kerrie as she nodded a small smile coming over her face.
Ch 50
The next morning after a shower Kerrie had Jr. on her hip as she stood outside her house which looked so cold and un-welcoming. Jean who was holding Lilly the same way nudged her on while Shane opened the door. 'I don't think I can do this.' She mumbled turning away. 'You have to. If not for you for Jr.' She took a deep breath and walked inside to see the house the way it was when she left. Time seemed to stand still as her eyes scanned the room both Shane and Jean waiting for her reaction. She slowly walked around the first floor examining every little detail. She walked back into the room. 'This place needs a good cleaning.' She put Jr. in a play pen along with Lilly as she slowly walked up the stairs. When Kerrie reached the top floor she went in every room but the bed room she froze at the door. After 5 minutes she walked inside to see everything neat. She closed the door and slid down the wall with her knees to her chest. Shane walked up the stairs and extended his hand, she took it and got up. Shane and Jean packed up Liam's clothes and put them in the basement as Kerrie cleaned. By 5 Kerrie was settled in, Jean was staying in the small guestroom downstairs and Shane would be staying in the guest room upstairs. After Jean went to bed and Jr. fell asleep Kerrie lay awake in bed. Shane poked his head in the door.
Ch 51
'Ker, are you ok?' 'Yea, I finally feel ok. Like it was his time to go, like I'm forgiven.' She said sitting up. He took a seat at the bottom of the bed. 'I just don't know what to do about Jr. I'm sorry about last night.' 'Don't be sorry. He needs a dad and I can take on that role, that is if you want me to.' 'Shane, you have your own life and a career. I don't want to hold you down.' 'Your not.' 'Yes I am. I'm fine here. Maybe I'll sell the house and move on with everything.' 'If you want to sell the house let me help you and then you and Jr. can come live with me.' 'Are you sure? We'll just get in the way.' 'No, it's ok.' 'I'll think about it a little more. Can you sing me to sleep?' She said quietly. 'Sure.' He started singing 'Swear It Again' and soon she drifted off to sleep. Shane smiled and walk into the other room and went to bed. In the next two weeks Kerrie got Jean to go home along with Shane and sold the house then her and Jr. moved to Ireland. Everyone was supportive and Shane wouldn't let her buy her own house he persisted that she and Jr. come live with him. This of course happened and the three were getting along great.
Ch 52
It had been close to a month that the two had been living there and Shane had just gotten back from a promo tour. He was sitting on the couch. Jr. had just fallen asleep and Kerrie was working at her computer. Shane came and sat across from her. 'What yea doing?' 'Working on some stuff.' 'Writing?' 'No I'm actually designing web sites.' 'Very cool. Can we talk?' 'Sure.' She pulled the top down and smiled. 'About what?' 'Us.' There was a long silence. 'Ok.' 'You know I'm always here for your right?' 'Yea, I do.' 'And I was thinking maybe it's time for you to move on, like start dating again.' Her mouth dropped. 'No way, did you hook me up with someone?' 'No, I was just thinking of someone.' 'Maybe later not now.' 'Ok, whenever your ready. I don't think he's going anywhere.' Shane got up and went to bed. He looked at the ceiling. 'Why can't you just tell her how you feel? Last time you did it.' He said to himself falling asleep.
Ch 53
The days seemed to go by slowly and everyday was getting easier for Kerrie but harder for Shane. It had been a little over a month since Liam's death and Jr. was starting to walk. Shane was practicing for the tour and would be leaving soon. Kerrie was finally getting ready to move on. When Shane came threw the door after a meeting he fell into the chair. 'How was it?' 'Boring.' 'Oh, we'll I've been thinking about what you said.' 'You have?' He said smiling. 'Yea, so how is it?' 'We'll I-I can't say.' 'Is it someone I know?' 'Maybe.' 'I want to know before I agree.' 'How about tomorrow night? If you don't like who it is then that's it.' 'I guess.' 'Ok, I'll go talk to him.' Shane ran up the stairs and picked up the phone calling Kian's house. 'Hello?' Jean said tiredly. 'Jean, you have to do me a favor.' 'Sure, what?' 'Can you watch Jr. tomorrow night?' 'Sure, are you going out or something?' 'You could say that.' 'Spill it?' 'I'll tell you when I drop Jr. off tomorrow.' 'Ok. I gotta go Lilly is crying.' 'Thanks. Bye.' He hung up the phone and went to work. The next day Kerrie stood infront of the mirror. Shane was at a meeting and took Jr. with him. She had on a light green skirt and a white tee shirt and her hair was curly. Kerrie sighed and grabbed her bag before heading down the street to the restaurant to meet her date.
Ch 54
Shane paced nervously she was late 15 minutes late. When she turned the corner he turned his back and took a deep breath before turning back around. 'Hey Shane, what are you doing here?' 'Well umm-you see-' 'He can't come?' 'No, I-I'm him.' He said quickly. Her face dropped and his smiled faded. 'Wow. I thought-' 'I messed up big time didn't I?' He said putting his head down. 'No, Shane.' She lifted his chin and softly kissed him. He took her hand and they went inside. The meal was quiet both surprised at what had happened. When they were walking home after going to the bar for a few drinks they held hands looking at the ground. 'Thanks so much.' 'No, thank you.' 'For what?' 'Not freaking out.' 'Where's Jr.?' 'Jean and Kian are watching him.' 'Whew, I almost spazed.' They were at the door now. 'So.' 'Yea, so.' The two looked into eachother's eyes as their lips met again. She fumbled getting the door open. They two stumbled up the stairs not stopping to turn on the lights. They two fell onto his bed kissing. 'Are you sure?' He said breathless as she started to take his shirt off. She nodded and kissed him again.
Ch 55
The next morning Kerrie woke up in Shane's arms and a smile crossed her face. Shane's eyes opened as she sat up. 'Hey.' He said softly. 'What time is it?' '8.' She said putting on one of his shirts. 'I have a practice to get to. What are you doing today?' 'I was going to go shopping with Jean.' 'Ok. I'll drop you off.' The two went their separate ways to get ready. A half an hour later they met in his and drove to Jean's house. 'About last night I don't regret it.' He said as they stopped. 'Me either.' She smiled. 'I'll see yea later.' 'Ok.' She gave him a quick kiss then got out walking up the stairs as he drove off. Kerrie rang the bell and Kian rushed to the door. 'Just go in. She's upstairs getting Lilly dressed.' 'Thanks.' She said as Kian got into his car and drove off. Kerrie went upstairs to see Jean walking the two down the stairs. 'Hey you. How did it go?' 'Good. You knew?' 'Yea I only found you yesterday afternoon when he was dropped off.' Kerrie smiled. 'You didn't, did you?' She nodded as Jean laughed. 'It's about time.' 'I know.' The two girls got the kids into car seats and they went to shop.
Ch 56
A week later the girls were seeing the guys off at the airport. Kerrie and Jean were going to take turns staying at eachother's houses so neither would have to stay by themselves. It was close to 2 months later when Jean walked into the bathroom to find Kerrie getting sick. 'Girl, you ok?' Kerrie shook her head. 'Oh no.' Kerrie nodded. 'Did you tell Shane yet?' 'No, Jean what if it's Liam's?' Jean shook her head. 'You would've know before.' 'Your right.' 'When are you going to tell him?' She shrugged. The two girls went to the hospital and they conformed the suspicion. 'They are gonna be home in a few days for a break.' 'I know. What am I gonna do Jean?' 'Just tell him. I'm sure he won't flip out.' 'But that's it. I don't think I'm ready for this.' 'Don't worry everything will work itself out.' 'I hope.' Kerrie sat in her room watching Jr. sit on the floor playing with some toys. 'You look just like your dad.' The little boy smiled and she closed her eyes.
Ch 57
The day they returned Shane expected to see Kerrie and Jr. at the airport but they weren't. When he walked into the house he found Jr. sitting infront of the TV singing along with Sesame street. 'Ker, where are you?' He asked walking towards the bathroom. 'Are you ok?' He asked knocking on the door. 'I'm fine.' 'Daddy!' Jr. yelled running to Shane. 'Hey little man.' 'I miss you, Daddy.' 'I missed you too.' 'Mommy?' 'Of course I missed your mom.' 'Mommy's sick.' Shane stood up. 'She is?' 'Yea, Auntie took her to the hospital.' Kerrie came out of the bathroom flushed and Jr. ran into the other room. 'He said you were sick.' 'Not really.' She walked into the other room as he followed her. 'Then?' 'Then what? I'm not sick.' She said walking up the stairs and he followed her. 'Are you ok?' 'Not really.' 'What's the matter?' 'We're having a baby.' She said walking into her room and falling onto the bed. His mouth dropped as he followed her. 'We are?' He asked happily. 'Yes.' Shane sat next to her. 'Are you ok about it?' 'I guess. It was just kinda sudden.' 'I love you.' He said kissing her.
Ch 58
The next 6 months were torture. Westlife was touring so Jean and Lilly stayed at their house to watch them. Shane was always saying how much he loved her but she could never say it back. It was time for Kerrie to have the baby so the 4 of them rushed to the hospital and Jean called Shane. He was going to get a plane home and since he was in London it wouldn't be that long before he was there. Jean held her hand as the two kids stayed with Kian's sister who happened to work at the hospital. 'Jean, is he coming?' 'Yea, don't worry he'll be here soon.' 'I god damn hope so or I'm f*cking kill him!' She panted. 'Ker, calm down you've done this before.' 'And I had my husband with me.' 'Kerrie, it's been almost a year. You have to let go.' She broke down in tears. 'I know I have to.' She said as the doctors had Jean leave. She paced in the waiting room as Jr. and Lilly sat there silently. 'Auntie, where's daddy? Is mommy ok?' 'Jr. mommy's fine. Daddy will be here soon.' 'My daddy too?' Lilly asked. 'Maybe, he'll be here soon.'
Ch 59
3 hours Shane ran down the hallway with the others in tow. 'Where is she?' 'Down the hall but I think they moved her.' 'Daddy!' Jr. said clinging onto his leg. 'Jr. daddy can't stay right now I gotta go see your mom.' Shane ran down the hallway as the others sat down. 'How is she?' 'Having a rough time, it's good he's here now.' Shane walked into the room to see Kerrie holding a baby girl. 'Hi Shane. I tried to wait-' 'It's ok. A girl?' 'Yea, want to hold her?' He nodded as she put the small child into his arms. Jean came down the hallway with Jr. 'Mommy, is that the new baby?' 'Yea, you have a little sister.' 'I want to hold.' 'Not yet, maybe when we go home.' 'Fine, I go play with Lilly.' He said crossing his arms and storming out of the room. 'Sounds just like Liam.' Jean said from the doorway. 'Hey girly.' Kerrie smiled. 'How yea feeling?' 'Better then 3 hours ago.' 'She's precious.' Jean said as Shane handed her the baby. 'Just like her mom.' He said as Kerrie blushed. 'Kerrie, I called your parents and sister they are on their way.' Shane's parents came to the door as Jean handed Kerrie back the baby. 'I better get going. I'll take Jr. home with me it's late.' 'Ok, see yea.' 'Shane, so is the girl your gonna marry or what?' His father laughed as his mother walked over to Kerrie and looked at the baby. 'I want to.' Shane said as Kerrie looked up with a pale face.
Ch 60
The sounds of 'Lucky' played softly as Jean looked at Kerrie pulling her hair back. 'Girl, this is your song.' 'It was. Now I don't need to cry anymore everything really did work itself out.' 'Like I said. Now your life is so right.' 'Yea two lovely children. Jr. and Maggie.' 'And you have two angels. Your grandmother and Liam so everything will go right today.' The wedding was small but beautiful. Jr. was 4 and Maggie was two. All their family were there along with close friends, it was outside and in the spring. After the wedding there was a reception. Shane sang 'Swear It Again' and the guys sang 'My Love' then Kian and Shane sang 'Queen of My Heart'. To Kerrie everything was perfect for once in her life, she was truly Lucky.
The End
