Fragile Future *shadowpook and I*

Charlie strugtglewd with her handcuffs.

the police officer pulled out a gun and put it to her head. "Dont you dare."

Charlie looked at Jimmy. "Is it just me, or am i being threatened alot today, Jimmay?"

"I dunno Charlay" he snarled "But I'm sure they aint allowed to treat us like this.

"Who they gonna believe? to repectable citizens taht are in teh force, or two runaways?"

Charlie didn't want to play thios card, but she really didn't like the gun to her head. "dunno but myfather mighty care a little."

Gerard gave her a sideways glance, Then he glared at the police officer "I dunno, But MY dad's in afghanistan, But when he gets back he'll have something to say about it"

"oohh....i'm so scared of these kids fathers!" sneered the policeofficer.

"You better be." said Charlie.

"and whys that?"

Charlie smirked at the police officer. "Cos he's teh cheif judge."

Jimmy stared at her.

Charlie forced herself not to look at jimmy. She kept her gaze on teh police officer.

The police officer slowly lowered his gun. "shit."

Charlie grinned at him.

Jimmy turned out the window, Angry that she's led him to believe over the past month that she was some street wise teen from the wrong side of town.

Charlie turned and looked out6 the windoiw, hating her father right then.

(skipping to the station)

Gerard sat in a Cell waiting and muttering to himself.

A policeman came down and opened his cell. "you can go." he said leaving the cell dorr open as he went and opened Charlies door

Charlie stood up and stood at her celll dorr, looking at Gerard.

Jimmy walked out and Into the main area, he saw Rosemary and Helena across the room, But his hair wasn;t long enough to make him recognisable yet.

Charlie ran after him. She grabbed his sleeve and pulled him round. "Jimmay!"

Jimmy looked at her "What do you want? to lie to me some more? You told me you were a street kid born and bred"

"i am a street kid. I ran away just like you did Jimmay.My mother was a whore who was paid by the all high cheif and mighty to do a night with him. And i came out of it. I spent 1 weekend a month with my father before i ran away. Other wise, i was a street kid earning money on teh street to feed myself because my mother slept at day and fucked some one at night. If your so disgusted with my father being the chief judge, stick it up tehre and fuck off." said charlie before spinning in her heel and walking out of the police station.

"Charlay! Wait!" Said Jimny, Scrmblinf after er and completely ignoring his mother, having no intentions oof going home. he grabbed her arm "Look, I'm sorry Ok, I just get annoyed when peope dont tell me everything, Besides, i assumed you had a good life with Anfathe rlike that. not one that had been ripped apart by war and cancer"

Charlie shook him off and kept walking

Charlay please, I -I think I love you" he blurted out, feeling his cheeks burn.

Charlie tunred and stared at him. Then she took hold of his face and kissed him.

helena nudsged her mum. "err...i think tahts Gerard. Kissing a random girl who just came out of jail."

Gerard wrapped his arms around her and kissed her back.

Charlie hugged him tight.

rosemary grimaced and went over and tapped Gerard on teh shoulder.

Jimmy SMiled at her then span round at the tap "Oh, Hello mom." he said.

Charlie stepped away from Gerard going pink. "Hello Mrs Welsh." said Charlie politly.

helena looked the girl up and down and sneered at her.

charlie looked at the girl.

Gerard/Jimmy shuffled awkwardly, seeing as him and Charlie had just been caught eating eachothers faces when his supposed 'chosen' was in a coma.

"Who's this Gerard?" asked Helena sickly sweet.

Charlie stiffened.
