Chapter 3
Standing Up For Kaleigh

Kaleigh is now 9 years old and Kieran is 6 years old. Daniella walks up to the Bay Harbor Elementary holding Kieran's hand.
“I don't want you to leave mommy.” Kieran wined.
Kaleigh walks over to Kieran.
“It's okay because I'm here so I will look after you.” Kaleigh said.
Kieran smiles and hugs Kaleigh. They walk side by side to their classrooms. Kieran is sitting off in a corner crying. The teacher walks over and sits down next to him.
“Why are you crying?” the teacher asked.
“I miss my best friend.” Kieran answered.
“Who is your best friend?” the teacher asked.
“My best friend is Kaleigh LeMorre.” Kieran answered.
“You'll see her at lunchtime.” the teacher said.
Kieran smiles a little.
“I sure will and thank Ms. Hogan.” Kieran replied.
Ms. Hogan leaves Kieran. A few hours later it's lunchtime. Kieran runs outside and searches the playground for Kaleigh.
“Are you looking for me Kier?” Kaleigh asked.
Kieran turns around to finds Kaleigh standing behind him and gives her a big hug.
“Yeah I was because I've missing you all morning.” Kieran answered.
Kaleigh smiles.
“Do you want to go on the swings with me?” Kaleigh asked.
“Sure I would.” Kieran answered.
Kieran and Kaleigh walk to the swings than sit down. They start swinging at the same pace. A little boy around Kaleigh's age walks over to them and looks at Kieran than at Kaleigh.
“Why are you hanging around with a first grader?” the boy asked.
“He's my best friend.” Kaleigh answered.
“You're friends with a first grader now that's really stupid and maybe you should find some friends your own age.” the boy said.
Kieran gets off the swing and punches the guy in the stomach.
“I've know her since I was born and if I ever catch you being like that again than you'll pay for it.” Kieran yelled.
The boy runs screaming in fear. Kaleigh jumps off the swing and hugs Kieran really tight.
“Thanks Kier.” Kaleigh said.
“No problem Kale.” Kieran replied.
It's now the end of the day. Kaleigh gets onto the bus and tries to find a seat.
“Hurry up and find a seat.” the bus driver said.
Kaleigh spots Kieran sitting by himself so she walks over to him and sits down next to him.
“I' really appreciate what you did for me today at lunchtime.” Kaleigh replied.
Kieran smiles.
“Anything for a friend as special as you.” Kieran said.
The bus driver starts driving and than stops. Kaleigh and Kieran get off at the second stop.
“I might come over after supper so we can hangout.” Kaleigh replied.
“Could you maybe help me with my homework?” Kieran asked.
Kaleigh nods and heads inside. Marguerite comes from the kitchen.
“How was school today sweetie?” Marguerite asked.
“It was great mommy.” Kaleigh answered.
“What was so great about it?” Marguerite asked.
“Kieran beat up a boy that was picking on me.” Kaleigh answered.
