Chapter 1

Discriminator: I am not anyway connected to Passions, the soap opera. I'm am merrily a fan, who likes the show, and has no life. So I decided to write what could happen.

At the Bennett's house. . . . .

"AHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

"What's wrong Charity? Becareful, you dropped your glass cup." Miguel said with a crack in his voice.

"I....I....I had another....premonition"

"Again?" Kay mumbled under her breath. Charity has been having more and more "premonitions" lately. Which meant more broken glass Kay has to clean up, cause conveniently every time, she is holding something. None of the "premonitions" ever came true, but for some reason Miguel was always concerned, as if it was all true.

Miguel turned around quickly, "Kay! Give Charity a break. How can you be so insensitive?"

"I'm sorry Miguel....." Kay trailed off as she started cleaning up the glass on the floor.

"I...I....I sense death, Something in those tea leaves told me that something horrible is gonna happen tonight!" Charity proclaimed.

Kay motions to Simone and Jessica that Charity is crazy. Jessica shakes her head and looks at Miguel and Charity. Simone rolls her eyes at Charity. Simone used to be sympathetic to Charity, but the more that she had those fake premonitions, the more she got annoyed at her.

"Maybe you need to rest Charity." Miguel said as he was getting up. "I know your probably tired by now. Seeing as how this is your thirds premonition this week Come on, it will do you some good. Besides it's late and we all should go home."

They all agree and Simone, Resse and Miguel all leave.

"I think Miguel was right, I'm gonna go to sleep." Charity walked up the stairs.

"Why is Miguel so nice to Charity? I don't see what he sees in her." Kay whispered to her sister as she saw Charity's figure disappear behind the white door.

"Maybe because Charity is really kind and really sweet, none of which you are Kay"

"Why do I even bother talking to you about it. Besides Miguel didn't even know Charity that well when he first met her. I should be with him." Kay was getting worked up. "The only thing that Charity really is is really insane.

"Kay, you're the one that's really insane."

"Whatever, I'm quite tired tonight, I'm gonna go to bed."

"I have to go take a bath."

"O.K." with that Kay went to her room.

Meanwhile, over at Tabitha's house. . . . .

"This is the perfect time Timmy." Tabitha says after looking into her crystal ball.

"Don't tell Timmy, that his Princess is trying to kill Charity again. You know it will never work Tabby."

"It will this time. Sam and Grace are out on some trip, which leaves the three little kiddies. I think I know exactly how to kill Charity now. I'll start a fire!"

"But Kay and Jessica are in the house. They would die."

"Timmy, for someone without a heart, you sure do have one! It doesn't matter, as long as Charity dies, we can be home free."

"Timmy doesn't think it's such a good idea. Timmy remember the last time you tried to start a fire. Charity didn't die."

"Ahh, yes Tim Tim, but Faith did. I'm sure someone will suffer."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Back at the Bennett's, Charity and Kay are in their rooms sleeping. Jessica is in the bathroom downstairs taking a bath. Tabitha sneaks in and starts a fire in the upstairs hallway. Doing her best to make it look like an accident.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Simone, Resse, and Miguel are walking home when suddenly Resse remembers he forgot something.

"Oh, Miguel, I think I forgot my wallet at the Bennett's house."

"Lets go back and get it." Miguel says, turning around to walk back.

"Well, I think I can walk home by myself, it's not that far and...." Simone says

"I don't think it's such a good idea Simone." Resse cuts in "It's not a good idea for a girl to walk in the dark alone."

"Yeah Simone, Resse is right. We haven't walked that far. Lets just turn back."

"O.K."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

At the Bennett's house. . . . .

Jessica walks out of the bathroom and smells something burning. She walks over to the stairs, and looks up and sees a lot of smoke and fire. "Oh my gosh! KAY!!!! CHARITY!!!!! GET OUT OF THERE!!!!!! THERE'S A FIRE!!!!!!!!!" Jessica starts crying as Simone, Miguel and Resse come through the door. Jessica turns around and tells them, "Kay and Charity are stuck upstairs. I think they are a sleep."

"Kay!" Simone yells

At that time both Kay and Charity open their door. They see the smoke and start screaming.

"Someone!?!?! HELP!" Kay starts coughing. She looks around and sees Charity. Charity's room is right across the hall form Kay's. From both of the rooms there was something blocking them from getting out. There was also something blocking them from getting to each other.

"Miguel! Help me!" Charity's heart started racing. She remembered the day when Miguel saved her from the fire. She also remembered how her mother had died in that awful fire. Charity looks around screaming hysterically.

"I'm going up there." Miguel runs up the stair. Once Miguel reaches the top of the stairs, she sees both Kay and Charity. He looks at Kay, then Charity, and heads for Charity.

"No..." Kay silently says to herself. Her tears start rolling down her face and she didn't even know it. All she knew was the that man she loved, the ONLY man she ever loved left her for dead. Her mind started wondering, instead of screaming. She had blocked everything. Kay was numb and she closed her eyes. She could feel her feet falling beneath her, but she had no will to stop from falling. All of a sudden she felt something holding her up. Was it Miguel? Did he come for her instead of Charity? Kay forced her eyes open as she was being carried away. She looked up, but before she could see the blurring image caring her, she felt her mind floating away.

Chapter 2

In Kay's Hospital Room. . . . .

Kay felt someone next to her. She tried to open her eyes, but they were too heavy to lift. She tried to speak, but her throat was to dry to make a sound.

"Kay I'm so sorry. I wish you would wake up. I wish I had saved you earlier, but I didn't see you through the smoke. I'm so sorry." The person started to cry. "Kay, I really do like you. I hope you wake up. Kay, I miss you so much." The person was holding her hand. She moved her fingers around the persons knuckles.

"Kay! Kay! Are you awake?"

Kay slowly regained her strength and opened her eyes. She saw a fuzzy figure and she closed her eyes again. I'm so tired, Kay thought.

"Kay! No! Open your eyes back up. Please!"

The person went up to her face, still holding her hand. Kay forced her eyes to open again. She focused her sight on the man in front of her.

"Resse?" Kay asked confused.

"Yeah, it's me."

"Where are everyone else?"

"They all went to visit Charity."

Resse didn't know it, but that had broken Kay's heart. Not only was Charity more important to Miguel, she was also more important to everyone else in the world. Kay felt a pain......

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

In the next room with Grace, Sam and Charity. . . . .

"Aunt Grace, I'm fine, I just got a scratch. Luckily Miguel saved me in time." She made his name sound so dreamy.

"Well, we are glad that you're safe." Sam smiled

"Speaking of Miguel where is he?" Grace asked Sam

"Oh, he went to get something to eat downstairs with Simone." answered Charity. "How's Kay doing?" Charity knew she had said something wrong by the look on their faces.

"Not to well I'm afraid...she didn't wake up yet......" tears were starting to roll down Grace's cheeks.

Resse runs into the room. Out of breath, he tries to speak. "You guy......Kay......just.....woke up." says out of breath

"That's wonderful" Charity smiled, so did Grace and Sam.

"But she just flatlined."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Downstairs with Miguel and Simone. . . . .

"Do you think Charity will be O.K. Simone?" Miguel said not looking at Simone, but getting food from the lunch line.

"She isn't in a coma is she?" Simone replied sarcastically. Her eyes are swollen for crying all night.

"That isn't a funny thing to say," Miguel picked up a cup of Jello, "Do you think Charity likes Jello?"

"Miguel, please stop! I have no clue how Kay puts up with this. Why even." Simone pays for the food.

"Put up with what?" Miguel pays for his food

They walk up to a table with awkward silence. Simone isn't sure whether to say anything or not. They sit and she decides she must stand up to Miguel, for Kay, once and for all.

"You. All you ever talk about it Charity this and Charity that...it gets kind of annoying you know." trying to sound more nice.

"I'm sorry, but I really like Charity and..."

"Miguel, I know you care about Charity. But don't you think that maybe your mind can get off the Charity subject for one moment? I mean our close friend is lying up there in a coma, and you are asking about Charity who is in great health, besides some scratches." Miguel tries to say something, but Simone cuts in. "Even before all this, you have been so mean to Kay ever since Charity has arrived. If she looks nice one day, you don't say anything to her, just to Charity. If Kay accomplishes something great, it's nothing compared to Charity. Miguel don't you get it?" Miguel just sits there confused. "She's doing all this for you Miguel."

"What do you mean Simone?"

Knowing she said something wrong, she added a last line, "If you can't figure that out yourself, I shouldn't waste my time." Simone gets up and grabs the food she brought for Grace and Sam. She couldn't believe Miguel was actually so dense.

Miguel sits there by himself, thinking. Kay's doing everything for me? But, why? Only if she....if she likes me. Everything is so clear to him now. How Kay gets so worked up when he sees her with no makeup lately. He looks up and sees Resse running to him. "Wuzup Resse?"

Resse tries to speak, but just keeps breathing hard. "Kay........flatlined,"

Chapter 3

At the hospital front door. . . . .

"Timmy still doesn't know why Timmy and Tabitha has to be at the hospital." Timmy squirms in Tabitha arm. "Timmy doesn't like the smell of sick people."

"We have to see that brat Charity is dead or not." Tabitha adjusts' Timmy on her arm. "If Charity is dead, our friends in the basement will give me my powers back."

"Timmy still doesn't get why Charity has to die."

"How many times do I have to tell you to get it threw that cotton head of yours?" At that moment they see Miguel and Resse running to the elevator.

"Did she really flatline?" Miguel left all his food on the table. He ran his fingers threw his hair. All thoughts were running threw his mind. He couldn't believe that he might lose his best friend. Not only his baseball pal, but a great friend. Please don't let Kay die, please.

"This might be our lucky day Tim Tim." Tabitha says hiding in a corner, so Resse and Miguel don't see her.

"Well, when I left she woke up and then she flatlined, when I told her...." Resse traveled off.

"Told her what Resse?" Miguel grabbed Resse's shirt as the elevator door closed.

"Wooh, Miguel, she asked where everyone was, and I told her over at Charity's." Resse removes Miguel's hand from his shirt.

"Sorry Resse." Miguel straightens himself up and presses 5 on the elevator.

"Did you hear that? She flatlined." Tabitha said with a wicked smile.

"Timmy remembers that there were three girls at the fire. It could have been Kay or Jessica."

"You're right Tim Tim, I'll have to go up and check."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

In the hospital . . . . .

"The bird statue was burned in the fire, it was I tell you, it has to be." Eve Russell screams into her cell phone in the brink of tears.

"Dr.Russell?"

Eve turns around frightened. She then turns off her cell phone.

"Are you O.K."

"I'm fine, what did you want?"

"Kay Bennett started to flatline, I think you should come quick."

"Oh my gosh," She ran to Kay's room. I hope no one heard me on the phone. Especally my husband, T.C. He would kill Julian if he found those pictures in the bird statue. After she came out she found everyone standing outside.

"Eve, is Kay going to be all right?" Sam says with plea in his eyes. He and Grace had gotten the first plane back to Harmony after he was phoned. There had been another reason why he had to leave, Ivy. She had somehow found out about his and Grace's vacation.

"I don't know Sam. We recovered Kay, but she's really unstable. We will have to do some more testing. She's in a coma again.

"No!" Simone screams.

"I'm sorry sweety," Eve puts an arm around her daughter's shoulder "but I don't know what is going to happen with her."

Chapter 4

One Month later . . . .

It felt as if her soul was coming back to her body. She opened her eyes, not slowly but quickly to witness all she had missed. As if her eyes were awaiting the moment that she would wake again. Kay tried to sit up, but her bones were too sore. She turned her head to look around the room, it was empty. Then she heard the door knob try to open. Kay focused her eyes toward the door. A blonde guy entered her room. As he came into the room, he didn't seem to make eye contact with her, but was preoccupied with a book. Kay didn't recognize him, but all she could see was the blonde hair and the book. "Umm...who are you?"

With a big jump, like someone had just ran up to him and smacked him on the back, the guy dropped his book in disbelief. "Kay? Are you really awake?" He ran over to her grabbing her hand.

"Yea, and you are....." Kay stared at every detail of his face. "Resse?"

"Yup, it's me," he said. "I'll be right back. I have to call everyone else and tell them the great news." Resse says as he runs out the door.

Kay looked at Resse as he left the room. Not only had he lost his glasses, but he cut and gelled his hair. He was talking differently, not geeky and squeaky, but more masculine. No suspenders and pocket protectors, but in a nice shirt and kakis. As she was away thinking about what happened to Resse, Simone popped in the room.

"OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!! KAY!!!!!!" She ran over and hugged her best friend. Simone started to cry.

"Don't cry Simone, I'm awake now" Kay studied Simone's face. She had not changed as much as Resse since he last saw her. "How long was I gone for?"

"Around a month." She said wiping her eyes dry.

"That wasn't that long," Kay mumbled, wondering how Resse changed so dramatically.

"Not long? It was long enough. We all missed you so much. After you flatlined, we weren't sure if you were ever going to wake up again."

Then Kay remembered. Everyone was over at Charity's room. No one loves her. "I'm sure Mom was so glad that I didn't wake up, so was everyone else. That way they could give Charity more attention. I bet mom was already planning to give my clothes to Charity."

"No Kay. I have been here for you. So was everyone else, including your father, your mother, Jessica, Miguel, Charity and Resse."

"Where are all of them now?"

"At home. After you were here for a week, we finally got your mother to go home and rest. Resse and I decided to come visit you today. I wanted to come so bad, and now I know why, cause I knew you were gonna wake up." tears were running down Simone's cheeks as she hugged Kay again.

"What happened to Resse, Simone? He looks so...." Kay's pulling away from the hug.

"So cute? Well, you see Resse saved you during the fire. And then he never left until you woke up the first time. After you flatlined, Resse stayed before and after school, everyday up until two weeks ago."

"What happened two weeks ago?"

"Resse had to go down to New York for a week to do some family thing. When he came back he was like that. No one knew who he was with his new look. The girls were drooling all over him."

"Resse must be happy."

Just then Resse starts to open the door, and he hears Simone and Kay talking. He decides to listen in.

"Kay, you know how he feels about you. He pushed off all the girls for you. Now that he looks less geeky, maybe you would consider....."

"SIMONE! You should know me better. I love Miguel for who he is, not what he looks like. I wouldn't go out with Resse unless it felt right. Even if it did feel right, I still love Miguel."

"Kay, I'm sorry to break it to you, but after the fire, Miguel and Charity have seem to be more and more in love."

"Just....just leave me alone for a while. Just tell me when my family gets here."
