"Oh really?" Katherine replied. "Well then, I am your mother and I'm going to make sure that you start to care from now on".
Tim stared wide eyed at her. The expression on his face showed that he knew exactly what was coming next.
"You are grounded" Katherine said.
"What?" Tim asked like he couldn't believe what he had just heard.
"Yeah" Katherine said. "You heard me. You are grounded. And don't even act surprised. You should have known this was coming since you have been acting like a brat. So from now on, apart from school, and football games and practice, you are not allowed to leave the house for any reason. You will go from school, to practice and back home. You are not allowed to have any friends over too. You will stay at home and work on those assignments you missed "
"I can't believe this" Tim said, shaking his head. "I'm sorry mom" he said, trying to look sincere.&nbs
"Of course you can" Jensen replied, as he relaxed in his chair. "Forgive me, I'm just... Really tired""It's fine" Shay replied. "I have to admit, I honestly couldn't believe it when I heard you got married. I mean it's you. You who hated getting into serious relationships and avoided them like a plague."Jensen sighed. "Well I guess things just change when you meet the right person, don't they?" he asked.Shay rolled her eyes. "The right person," she repeated. "Well, It's such a shame that things didn't go that far between us, you know we were really perfect together, you and I. Don't you agree?""Did you come to talk about that, Shay?" Jensen asked, sounding uninterested, "Because I have a lot of work to do"Shay frowned. "Is that your way of asking me out of your office, Jensen? Wow, that is so rude, you have never chased me out of a room before,
Katherine shook her head. They could talk about that later. "Tim isn't home yet Jensen" she said. "I have been trying to reach him but I can't get through to him. I'm really getting worried here."Katherine was staring at panic as lots of thoughts were going on in her head. What if something bad had happened to him? What if someone grabbed him? He didn't have his car. This was all her fault."What?" Jensen said. "He's not home by this time?""Yes" Katherine said, almost screaming with fear."Alright baby," Jensen said. "Don't panic. I will be home soon okay? We will figure this out. Try not to overreact""Okay" Katherine said, trying to calm herself down.------------------------By the time Jensen got home Katherine was totally loosing it."Is he home?" Jensen asked as soon a
Tim handed the phone to her, obviously frustrated that things had backfired."You are both so annoying " he yelled before he rushed to his room.Katherine buried her face in her hands. Confused about how she was feeling. She couldn't decide if she was more angry at Tim for being such a brat or relieved that he was back home and safe.. She sighed, and then she felt Jensen's hand on her shoulder."It's okay" Jensen said. "Don't worry so much about him. He is just acting out and being a teenager. It's normal. At least we know that he is safe and not into trouble. At least we know he is home."Katherine's anger returned in full force. She lifted her head and dropped her hands, then she turned to face him."Excuse me?" she said angrily and Jensen took one step backward."I'm in trouble too, am I not?" he asked.&nbs
He was acting so different that she was beginning to wonder if she did something wrong? How things had gotten to this extent she didn't know."You know I can't even look at you right now" she said. "So maybe you should just spend the night in one of the guest rooms""Great" Jensen said. "You read my mind"Katherine shook her head, but she didn't say anything else. She couldn't. Her perfect little family seemed to be falling apart right in front of heryand she couldn't really do anything about it. She felt so helpless. She moved past him and ran up stairs into the bedroom and only when she curled up in bed did she let the tears flow.-----------------------"Hey Tim" Dylan Winchester said as he shut his locker. "You are coming to my party tomorrow night, right?" he asked."Ermmm no. I don't think so. Sorry man" Tim replied regretf
Tim shook off Peter's hands. "No one asked for your opinion, Peter. And I don't have a thing or a crush on her. Not that it's any of your business if I did" he said defensively. Then he watched as Chloe opened her locker and withdrew some books""Relax man. Jeez" Peter said. "I'm just messing with you obviously""Well then" Dylan said to Tim. "From the look on your face, you look like you are scared of talking to her then. I totally understand if you like her though, she is kinda cute""What?" Tim said, though he knew deep in his heart that they were not entirely wrong. "Scared of what exactly? I'm not scared of talking to her. She's just a girl. There is nothing to be afraid of""Well then" Oliver chipped in "She is right there. Why don't you go talk to her"Tim gave him a look and swung his backpack over his shoulder. "No way. Go talk to her and say what?" he said. Then he added
"Why don't you practice what you preach sister, and oh, a piece of advice, that rolling thing you do with your eyes —doesn't look good at all. Just saying" Tim said.Chloe Gilbert had had enough of this arrogant jock and his friends. "Will you please get out of my way now.... Tim? Or does the hallway belong to you too? And oh, tell your friends that it's rude to just stand and stare... Like morons"She didn't wait for him to move this time but she brushed past him and was on her way. Tim turned around and watched her.It was weird. If someone else had spoken to him that way, he would have taken it pretty badly. Not that anyone ever did. He would be seeing Chloe Gilbert again. He was sure of that. And not just in class. At least she thought he was good looking.His friends hurried up to him."Well that didn't go well" Peter said."Shut up" Tim said
We don't talk much any more. He hasn't stopped the late coming... He says he is just busy at work. And I want to believe him... I do... But I just wish he could just understand that we miss him at home. I just see and feel this distance between us.. You know mom, I honestly don't know what to do"Delia nodded. "Maybe he is really busy, you know" she said. "and maybe he just wants you to be a bit more understanding. I understand how you feel too, but not talking about your problems won't make them go away. Nobody is going to fix it for you, so just make out time, whenever he's home and just talk to him... And no yelling "she added. "Just talk"Katherine smiled. "Fine. I won't yell" she said. "I'm just glad that at least one of us is happy""Oh relax" Delia said. "It's just a normal thing all families go through. And I'm sure it will be fine. I know how much you and Jensen love each other"
"Oh yes. He is" Debbie said."Good" Katherine said as he began to walk to the door. "Have a nice day, Deb""You too Mrs Packard"---------------------------Katherine wasn't sure what she expected to see when she knocked and entered her husband's office. Probably see him working on whatever had been keeping him away from home.But definitely not to see a woman standing behind her husband and giving him a massage. She almost dropped the food she was holding.They were obviously startled to see her too. Because the moment she came in Jensen slid the lady's hands off his shoulders and stood up."Hey honey" he said. Then he moved towards her. She hadn't left the place she was standing and from the look in her eyes, he could see that he had hurt her so much. He knew that things hadn't been great between them lately and he didn't want to add
