Chapter 10

Jack was walking down the street Ranya lived on when someone called out his name. Turning around he saw her, running toward him like nothing had ever happened and hugged him and kissed him. Pushing her away he shook his head.

“What...what the hell are you playing at, I cant believe you would stoop so low as to spiking my drink and making me believe that you were...you know what forget about it, I never want to see or speak to you ever again and I swear to god if you have ruined my chance with Martha, your going to regret it!” Jack screamed as tears started forming in the blondes eyes.

“How...how can you say that after everything we've been through, Jack you and I are meant to be toget...'

Jack started laughing which made Ranya look at him.

“Meant to be...meant to be. You are mean, manipulative, bitchy, obsessive and violent so what it gods name makes you think were meant to be together.” Jack snorted, pushed his way past her and kept walking, even after she kept calling out his name.

Now the only thing I have to do now is get Martha Jack thought to himself as he walked on his way to the Diner Flat where Martha would most likely be.

*

Martha was sitting in the Diner with Tash and Robbie When Matilda and Lucas walked in to join them.

“Hey guys!” Matilda said as her and Lucas held hands and gazed lovingly into each others eyes, getting lost into the moment, followed by a loving, passionate kiss and then they took a seat next to Martha.

“So what's been happening!” Matilda asked just as she ee who was staring at Martha at the Diner door.

“Uh-o!” Matilda said as everyone followed her gaze to see Ranya standing there.

“YOU!” She screamed as she approached Martha. Martha got to her feet and wasn't in the mood to get a belting, she had already had enough from Ranya just this year and the it was only the beginning of the year.

“YOU HAVE RUINED EVERYTHING BETWEEN ME AND JACK AND YOU ARE GOING TO PAY...'

“OH GET OVER YOURSELF YOU SELFLESS, RUDE, VIOLET, OBNOXIOUS BITCH!” Martha screamed as the whole Diner went quiet. “I am sick to death about hearing your insecurities and bitching about other people ruining your relationship when it was...ALL YOUR FAULT...In the first place. I had nothing to do with you and Jack until you started beating me up, if you didn't do that then maybe...just maybe he still wouldn't know me so excuse me for not giving a rats!” Martha was screaming to a point of tears. She was now at boiling point and slapped Ranya so hard that the room echoed. Matilda and Tasha were giggling and Robbie and Lucas were so shocked that there mouth's had dropped open to an extent that bricks could be thrown and would still make it in and pushed past her, walking behind the couter and disappearing up the stairs to the flat that she lived in with her mum and dad.

“I'd better go and see if she is ok!” Tash said as she got to her feet and disappeared the same way Martha had just gone.

Tasha knocked on the door, once, twice, three times before she got a faint 'come in'

opening the door she looked over at the couch where Martha was sitting, ever since her parents had gone to the city to visit Macca, Martha had left pizza boxes out, clothes strewn all over the flat and dishes build in the sink to a point where they were over flowing. Tasha closed the door and walkd around the couch, taking a seat after moving clothes over so she could actually sit down.

“Mac whats wrong? I know your upset but I've never seen you like that! Talk to me!” Tasha said as Martha looked at her and started crying.

“I like him so much Tash it hurts when he looks at me, when he touches me, when he talks to me!” Martha sobbed as Tasha took her best friends hand and held it in hers.

“Then tell him Mac, dont let this get the better of you, it will only make you depressed and angry and bitter.” Tasha explained as Martha looked at her, tears flowing down her cheeks.

“I...I cant Tash. Don't you get it, compared to Ranya I'm second fiddle in his life and if anything ever would happen which it wont, she would never let me live it down. I have tried and tried to be apart of this town and to make something of my life and I've decided that Jack Holden will not be a part of that!” Martha said as she got to her feet and headed toward her bedroom to get ready for school the next day.

Robbie, Lucas and Matilda were still sitting in the Diner when Tasha re-appeared and took a seat next to Robbie.

“She likes Jack and Ranya pushed a nerve and now Mac is completely cutting him out of her life!” Tash replied as Lucas and Matilda looked at each other and taking each other's hands.

“Were going to go, we've gotta meet Cass and Ric so see you guys later!” Lucas said as both he and Matilda stood up and left leaving just Tasha and Robbie.

“Tash there's something I want to talk to you about!” Robbie said as he started fiddling with his hands.

“Yeah me too!” Tash replied as she looked at Robbie. “You go first!”

“Ok well it's just I know you got hurt by Kim but...god this is hard ummm...Tash I like you a lot and...and I was wondering if you would like to go to the movies with me tonight?” he asked as Tash smiled and took his hand.

“I only got hurt by Kim because it wasn't you and yes I would love to!” Tasha replied as Robbie also smiled, kissed her hand lightly and pulled her in for a hug.

In the distance she was watching them, they had finally admitted to each other that they liked one another but now she had to face the fact that she could never have that, no matter how much she wished or dreamed and thats when she decided that she was leaving the Bay. Turning on her heel in the kitchen Martha headed back upstairs to pack because...she was leaving today...

Chapter 11

Martha awoke to the sound of chirping birds and looked out the window, they had just driven past the 'welcome to SummerBay' sign. Sitting up she looked at the beach coming into view and realized that she had missed this place more than ever and everyone in it and even though she didn't want to admit it...she even missed Mr popular Jack Holden.

She looked over at the guy driving her car and smiled at his blonde hair and well built physique, smiling to herself she couldn't believe that this...man was her boss and boyfriend.

The man looked at her and smiled, his blue eyes sparkling and his one gold tooth shining like it was pure gold inside his mouth.

“Welcome back to SummerBay Martha!” the man said leaning over to her and giving her a passionate kiss on the lips.

“Do you think anyone has seen it yet?” Martha asked looking a little paranoid.

“Oh baby they have done more than seen, Martha you are the face of Target, Supre and Just Jeans, of course they have seen and it wont be long until everyone knows your name!” he replied smiling and removing himself from the car and making his way around to Martha's door.

As soon as she stepped out of the car, people were looking at her and then at catalog's they had in there hands or had seen on television and even on the internet. Slamming the car door, the man took her hand and they made there way into the Diner.

As Martha looked around she saw everyone looking at her and then she saw them, Robbie, Tasha, Matilda, Lucas and...and Jack all sitting in the far corner of the Diner, all looking at her.

“Martha!” she read from Jacks lips as he looked shocked to see her but also happy, relieved, ecstatic.

Martha watched as Tasha approached her, at first she thought she was going to get slapped or something for just taking off but she was shocked when Tasha grabbed her friend and hugged her so tightly.

“I missed you Mac!” Tasha replied as Martha returned the hug.

“I missed you too!” she replied as soon enough Robbie, Matilda, Lucas and Jack had all approached her and each given her a hug. Jack more passionately then the other's had.

“So what made you take off like that?” Tasha asked as they all sat in the far end booth, all with milkshakes. Tasha and Robbie with strawberry, Matilda and Lucas with chocolate and Jack and the other man with banana and vanilla.

“I just...i was hurt and wanted to get away I guess and wanted to see mum, dad and Macca and when I got to the city I met Stevie here and then he got me the Target, Supre and Just Jeans gigs!” Martha replied taking his hand which made Jack look down at the ground.

Jack looked back up at Martha just as she looked at him.

“I'm not giving up!” He said as he got to his feet and walked out the door, leaving Martha astonished that he hadn't forgot the promise he made to her and all of a sudden it all came flooding back to her.

“Jack I...I dont want to be the popular guys girlfriend, I wont be that person, I dont want to be popular and turn out to be Ranya!”

“I'm not going to give up!”

“I'm not going to give up!”

“I'm not going to give up!”

Just then it hit Martha like a tone of bricks, she had become the person she didn't want to become and she was going back to school tomorrow...popular!

“Well guys were going to get going!” Matilda said as Lucas looked at her and nodded. As they both got to there feet they said bye to everyone and headed out the door looking like the happy couple but really they weren't...they had been disagreeing a lot lately and it was starting to show in there relationship.

“I wish you wouldn't do that!” Lucas said as they walked down the street just before there's.

“Wouldn't do, Lucas we have school tomorrow and were only in year nine. Why are you being so arrogant?” Matilda asked as Lucas stopped in his tracks looking upset.

“Me arrogant what about you Mattie, your not exactly perfect...your bossy and obsessive!” Lucas replied as Matilda looked even more shocked then he did.

“How...how am I obsessive Lucas, your the one I caught watching a porn movie and...' Matilda's voice trailed off as tears started trickling down her cheeks.

“Dont you love me anymore?” She asked wiping her face.

“Oh Mattie of course I love you, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I dont know what would happen if I ever lost you!” Lucas replied pulling her into a hug.

“Then why were you watching it?” she asked sobbing and wrapping her arms around him.

“Do you really wanna know?” he asked sounding a little embarrassed.

“Yes!” was all she whispered.

“Because when...when were...ready to have...do it I want to be able to know what I'm doing just a bit!” he replied as he felt Matilda giggle to herself and pull away from him.

“I love you!” he replied as there noses were now together.

“I love you too!” Matilda replied as they kissed each other passionately and hugged each other again.

Later that night

Tasha and Robbie were sitting at the hospital waiting for some test results because Tasha hadn't been well for the last couple of weeks and when she done a pregnancy test it came up negative so she started to become a bit worried and asked Robbie to come with her.

“Natasha Andrews! A dark Caucasian lady said as Tasha and Robbie got to there feet and followed the lady into the room.

“Take a seat!” she said as she sat behind the desk and opened a file and Tasha's name on it.

“Now the tests we done have showed that you have Hodgkin's Disease which is a form of treatable cancer!” the doctor said as Tasha almost instantly broke down.

“Now Natasha we will be starting you on chemotherapy the day after tomorrow and you will have the treatment twice a week until there is no sign of it left in your system.” The doctor replied as Tasha looked at her, squeezing Robbie's hand and wiping her tears away with her other hand.

“How far is it?” Tasha asked.

“You are lucky Natasha because it is only in the very early stages of the disease and because of your age you shouldn't be too affected the the chemo. Is there anything you would like to ask me?” The doctor asked as Tasha shook her head and got to her feet, followed by Robbie and doctor.

“Well then I will see you in two days time!” the doctor replied as Tasha nodded and headed out the door, Robbie close behind her.

Chapter 12

Martha awoke to the chirping birds, the sun blared through her open curtains and as she squinted she slowly pulled back the covers.

Walking into the lounge room she thought Stevie would be here but he wasn't. Looking at the table she saw a note and reading it she smiled.

Gone for a run baby, didn't wake you because you were so peaceful...see you when I get back!

Sitting the note down she poured herself a coffee and walked back into the bedroom to get ready for school and hope to god that she was left alone but becoming a model came with obsessive fans who would leave you alone.

Martha slipped her black shorts up her thigh's and rested them on her hips before proceeding to the purple vintage top she had bought in the city along with a purple pair of flat shoes. Taking one last look in the mirror she walked out of her bedroom ready for her first day, back in almost a month of being gone.

*

Jack was walking along the beach thinking about what Martha had said the day before. As he looked up he saw Stevie and a blonde kissing...KISSING.

Jack looked around to see if anyone else was watching and when they weren't he pulled out his digital camera from his bag and snapped three different photo's of the pair locking lips.

Thats it I'm gunna get this guy for doing this to Martha!!! Jack thought to himself as he started taking more photo's of another girl approaching him and the other girl walking away, Jack couldn't believe how many photo's he was getting of this guy pashing what looked like random girls. When Jack thought he had got enough photo's he shoved his camera back in his bag and kept walking on his way to school.

*

Tasha and Robbie were walking down the school corridor, hand in hand and in complete silence. After what Tasha found out last night she couldn't help but not say anything because if she did talk she would break down and she didn't ned that, not now, not ever, not at this school.

“Tash!” Robbie finally spoke up. Tasha stopped and looked at him, looking like she was just about to cry.

“I love you!” Robbie said as Tasha smiled just a little and took him into a hug.

“I love you too!” she replied as tears trickled down her cheeks.

“Hey guys!” Martha said as she approached them. “Tash what...what's wrong? She asked seeing the tears in her friends eyes.

“I'll tell you after school Mac!” Tash replied as Martha nodded and looked around to see everyone staring at her.

“Don't you lot have something better to look at the the face of Target or Supre or Just Jeans!” Martha squealed as everyone quickly looked away.

*

Science seemed to go so long today and for Martha it was starting to bore her, looking over Tasha she saw the girl just staring into space which was weird because Tash usually loved science.

Martha then looked at Robbie who kept on looking at Tasha and knew instantly that he knew why so was so out of it today and then Martha looked at Ranya who was actually looking at the teacher and then she looked at Jack who was looking at her.

After school Martha walked into her apartment above the Diner with the mail in her hand. Flicking through it she saw a C.D which had 'To Martha' on it and then also had 'Play in DVD player'. Throwing her bag on the couch she placed the C.D in the DVD player and turned on the television.

'How well do you know your guy?” came up on the screen before it came to pictures of Stevie kissing other girls on the beach, a blonde, brunette, red head and all sorts of 'bimbo's' as Martha would have said. Martha turned the television off before bursting into tears.

After wiping her face she came across another C.D in the mail and put that in the DVD player. Up came on song on it so she pressed play.

This is the way you left me,

I'm not pretending,

No hope, no love, no glory,

No happy ending

This is the way that we love,

Like it's forever,

Then live the rest of our life

But not together.

Wake up in the morning,

Stumble on my life,

Can't get no love,

Without sacrifice.

If anything should happen,

I guess I wish you well,

Hmm a little bit of heaven,

with a little bit of hell.

That I've ever told,

Two o'clock in the morning,

Something's on my mind,

If I pretend that nothing

Ever went wrong,

I can get to my sleep,

I can think that we just carried on.

This is the hardest story,

That I've ever told,

Happy Endings,

Gone for ever more,

I, feel as if I'm wasting,

Then after that song finished a sentence came up which made Martha smile and tears start trickling down her cheeks again.

“I love you Martha MacKenzie, Love always Jack Holden. I promised I wouldn't give up and I never will!”

Review...Martha finally realizes she loves Jack to much and the Bay finds out about Tasha's cancer!

Chapter 13

Martha lay on her bed thinking about the song that Jack had sent her on a C.D and then she thought about the message at the end of it.

Martha sighed, she tried to get Jack out of her mind when she went to the city but she couldn't stop thinking aobut him, dreaming about him, the kiss between them, his touch, his ab's and that's when it hit Martha...She had fallen madly in love with Mr Popular Jack Holden and now she was Miss Popular Martha MacKenzie.

Thats when it hit Martha, people wouldn't judge her anymore because she was someone. Jumping off her bed she walked out just as she heard a door close, walking around the corner she saw Stevie smile at her.

“Hey babe!” he said as Martha crossed her arms and looked very angry.

“Dont you dare hey babe me you cheating son of a bitch. How dare you bring me back here and cheat on me the morning after and yes I know Steven Price it is a very small town!” Martha screamed as she stormed into the bedroom and came back out a couple of minutes later with a suitcase and threw it at him.

“GET OUT!” She screamed pointing to the door. “The only time I want to hear or see you is only if I have a modelling thing ok now get out!” she screamed more loudly, the anger rising in her voice.

“Fine I'll go but baby doll, can this Jack Holden give you what you want?” he asked looking at her as she smiled.

“All I want is to be loved for who I am and he has done that even before I left to Bay and found your pathetic ass!” Martha replied sternly still pointing at the door.

Stevie gave one last smile before disappearing out the door.

Now all I have to do is find Jack and tell him how I really feel! Martha thought to herself as she walked out the same door that her now ex had just walked out of. Running down the stairs Martha ran straight into Ranya.

“What do you want?” Martha asked looking at her, suddenly forgetting why she had left her apartment.

“Have you heard about Tasha?” Ranya asked looking at Martha's now sexy, stunning clothes and her well done make up and hair.

“No what about Tash...how do you even know her name?” Martha asked looking stunned that Ranya hadn't made a smart remark.

“Come on Mar...she is Martha MacKenzie's best friend so everyone knows her and you and soon everyone will know this as well!” Ranya said handing Martha the daily paper. Martha watched as Ranya walked off not saying another word.

Martha looked at the paper and saw photo of Tasha and then looked at the heading.

MacKenzie's best friend's cancer troubles

Sitting down on the stairs Martha began to read the paper.

Natasha Andrews who is also known as Tasha in the small seaside town of Summer Bay and Martha MacKenzie's best friend is dealing with the terrible disease that Delta Goodrem has recently overcome called Hodgkin's Lymphoma or worldly known as Hodgkin's Disease.

This Summer Bay teen was diagnosed by Doctor Anna Bishop last night at the Northern District Hospital fifteen minutes out of SummerBay and another fifteen minutes from Yabbie Creek. It is said that this young girl, only aged eighteen years old doesn't know how to deal with this terrible news but is slowly coping thanks to Robbie Hunter, another one of Martha's closest friends and Tasha's boyfriend. It is not known when Miss Andrews will start her treatment or what the treatment will be but we wish her the best of luck with this disease and hopes she gets better soon.

Nicky Nill reporting.

“Oh my god!” Was all Martha replied as she dropped the news paper and realized that people were coming towards her, holding news papers in there hands and yelling out to her. Jumping to her feet she ran back up the stairs and into her apart locking the door, the door heading down to the Diner and the door next to the kitchen before running around, closing all her blinds and closing every window.

“Oh my god!” Martha said again.

Review...Martha is stuck in her apartment with surrounding her...Tasha reads the paper and someone calls Martha from outside the apartment...who?

Chapter 14

Jack was walking along the beach when someone threw him the paper, looking at it he saw Tasha's picture and reading on the quickly dropped it and started running toward the Diner when he suddenly stopped in his tracks to see Martha's stairs to her flat completely covered in paparazzi and people yelling out to Martha.

Running up to the back of the crowd Jack pulled out his phone and dialed Martha's number before pushing his way through the crowd and up the stairs.

“Martha it's Jack open the door I'm almost at the top of the stairs quick!” Jack screamed before hanging up the phone. Martha opened the door just as Jack reached the top of the stairs and pushing his way through the rest of the crowd and past Martha, helping her slam the door shut again and locking it before sighing.

“Well I guess my popularity is nothing compared to this!” he said sitting himself on the couch before Martha's phone rang again.

'Hello, Tasha, yeah, ok come up1 Martha said as she hung up the phone and walked to the door that headed down into the Diner, unlocking it she opened it to see Tasha and Robbie standing there.

“Hey Tash!” Martha said as the both of them came in.

“Martha!” a voice screamed. Looking up all she saw was a flash which blinded her for a minute before she felt two soft hands on hers and pulling the door shut. Blinking a couple of time she let go of the door handle and finally could see again as she saw Jack flick the lock on the door.

“Well it looks like were stuck here for a while!” Robbie said as both he and Tash sat on the couch.

“I am so sorry you guys, I never meant for any of this to happen!” Martha said as tears started rolling down Tasha's cheeks.

“It's not your fault Mac, everyone was bound to find out eventually!” she replied as Robbie held her in his arms.

“Yeah but...'

“No buts Martha, Tash said it wasn't your fault so it wasn't and...how did you find out, you dont have the paper in here!” Jack said as he looked around.

“Ranya gave it....'

“Ranya gave it to you, Tash you weren't talking to Robbie about this at school today were you?”

“For about five minutes why?” Tasha asked as Jack shook his head.

“Because Ranya just got what she wanted that's why...she wanted to get back at Martha for being more popular than she ever was and to do that she went through Tash to do it!” Jack said as all three sets of eyes shot a look at him.

“But I know how to embarrass her even more!” Jack said pulling out his mobile again and starting to dial numbers into his phone!”

“Uhh hello Ranya Renolds ex boyfriend is with Martha MacKenzie and rumour is they are together, if you would like to ask her about it to to 135 Summer Bay Road..ok bye!” Jack hung up the phone as Martha had a huge smile on her face.

“You are so mean but...I like it!” Martha said in a flirtatious tone.

“Why Miss MacKenzie are you flirting with me?” Jack asked, a smile appearing from ear to ear.

“No never!” was all Martha replied as both Tasha and Robbie looked at the both of them and sighed.

Chapter 15

Martha, Jack, Tasha and Robbie were playing cards and listening to music from the radio. Martha looked at the time and it read 6:30.

“It's gone quiet!” Tash finally said as everyone looked at the door. Martha hesitated before getting to her feet and walking toward the door. Looking through the peep hole she couldn't see anyone but didn't unlock the door just in case they were waiting down the bottom of the stairs for them.

“I think you guys should stay the night!” Martha said as everyone looked at her, surprised, especially Jack.

“Well you guys know the paparazzi, they could be hiding everywhere and I'm not going to risk any of you getting bombarded by them so ring who ever and let them know your staying here the night!” Martha finished as Jack was straight on the phone to his dad. Robbie and Tasha both looked at Martha once more before pulling there phones out and dialing numbers into there phone as well.

An hour on they were all listening to the night mix on the radio when a listen to your heart came on by DHT.

“Do you wanna dance?” Jack asked holding his hand to signal Martha to take his hand.

Nodding and smiling Martha took his hand and was pulled up and into his chest as they started dancing to the song.

you've built a love but that love falls apart

your little piece of heaven turns too dark

listen to your heart

when he's calling for you

listen to your heart

there's nothing else you can do

I don't know where you're going

and I don't know why

but listen to your heart

before you tell him goodbye

sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile

the precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeah

At that moment Jack swung Martha out and back in again and then it had happened, there eyes had met, there pulses were racing, both were smiling, Martha a little red from the dancing but heavily in love with the guy she was dancing with.

they're swept away and nothing is what is seems

the feeling of belonging to your dreams

Both kept there gaze on each other. Martha knew she had let her guard down and she didn't want to do that just yet but she felt so weak with Jack looking at her, his big, loving brown eye's set upon her's. Jack started moving slowly, Martha in his grip, not letting her go and keeping hold of her gaze and he new by just looking at her that she had finally let her guard down and he new, at this point, in this moment that he would love her until he died. Jack and kept at this slow pace for about two minutes and then the next bit of the words made them both smile at each other.

and there are voices

that want to be heard

so much to mention

but you can't find the words

the scent of magic

the beauty that's been

when love was wilder than the wind

Knowing that it was the most beautiful night of Martha's night she kept smiling and felt Jack rest his left hand on her hip and bring her closer to him and made her shiver but smile even more because she felt safe, she had never thought that such a guy could make her heart melt with just a look, a touch, a smell, a kiss but this is how Jack made her feel.

It made Martha forget that there was anyone else in the room because to her it was just Jack and herself spending an amazing dance with each other, knowing that he would never do anything to hurt her, knowing that he truly loved her for who she was and because she had never been afraid to be herself around anyone.

Jack moved his face closer to Martha's so there lips were just centimeters apart. He could feel Martha's every breath of air she took in like she was on a beach, looking out at the beautiful night sky reflecting on the shining, calm sea and bringing back fond memories that would be with her forever and Jack finally lent towards her like he was going for the kill.

sorry this chapter is so short but the next chapter will be longer and i didn't know what else to write for this chapter anyway lol

Chapter 16

Just as there lips met.

'Flash!'

Both Jack and Martha looked to where the flash had come from at as they looked at the kitchen window there was a photographer holding his camera up at them just about to take another photo. Jack ran over to the curtain which must have come open at some point which made a photographer find a ladder from somewhere and climb up it and reefed it down before he could get another photo before looking back at Martha and realizing that Tash and Robbie were still in the room.

“What now?” he asked looking at Martha who looked upset.

“Now we will be in the morning's paper and it's all my fault for becoming a stupid model!” Martha replied walking around to the chair, seated across from the couch and sinking in it before sighing.

“Hey!” Jack said walking over to her and sitting on the side of the chair.

“I dont blame you for anything and I'm sure Tasha and Robbie doesn't either so dont put yourself down!” Jack said as Martha looked up at him and smiled.

“Now move over!” Jack said pushing Martha aside and placing himself beside her on the couch. Wrapping his arms around Martha made him feel better.

Martha let herself sink into Jack like a big fluffy cushion she could just fall asleep on.

About an hour of just sitting there Martha looked over at Tasha and Robbie who were both lying on the couch, arms wrapped around each other, Tasha's head snuggled into Robbie's chest as they slept.

“Jack!” Martha said as Jack looked at her, kissing her forehead.

“Yeah!” he replied as Martha dug her head in his chest again.

“When I ran into Ranya today I was actually on my way to find you!” she replied as she looked up at Jack who looked at her and smiled.

“Really?” he asked sounding surprised but not looking it.

“Yeah I got the C.D you made me with that song and I realized that I never stopped loving you so I was on my way to find you when I ran into her and then got bombarded by the paparazzi!” she said as Jack leant down, giving her a peck on the lips, making her crave for more.

“I love you!” Jack said as Martha smiled, grinning from ear to ear and looking at him with those big brown eyes.

“And I love you!” Martha replied as they leant in and kissed each other, Martha's left hand placid on Jacks cheek.

Review...Jack buys the paper and is shocked at what he see's and at school there is also trouble for the couple

Chapter 17

The next morning Jack awoke and looked around the room. At first he didn't know where he was but then he remembered the night before when Martha asked him to stay in her bed with her because she didn't want to be alone after the incident the day before. Jack had agreed and held Martha in his arms, in her bed until she fell asleep, her head resting on his chest and her arms wrapped around him like she was never going to let him go.

Getting out from under the sheets he walked into the kitchen where he could see Robbie and Tasha still asleep on the couch. Jack unlocked the door, opposite the couch and walked out looking around, all the paparazzi had gone and as he looked down he saw the paper with Jack and Martha kissing on the front page.

“Oh god!” he said as he picked up the paper and walked back inside and pushed the door shut. As he made his way over to the table he saw Martha walking out of the bedroom in a nice pair of skinny black jeans and a spotty green t-shirt on.

“Hey come and look at this!” Jack said as he sat down on one of the chair's and letting Martha seat herself on his lap.

“Great we made front page!” she said as they both looked at the pair locking lips, both there eyes closed and Jacks hands around her waist.

“Yeah well atleast they'll be talking about us today and not Tash and Robbie!” he said as he again wrapped his arms around Martha's waist. “what does it say?”

Martha sighed before starting to read the paper.

High School Popular's finally get together!

Jack Holden also known as Mr Popular who attends Summer Bay High School and Martha MacKenzie who is now known at Miss Popular shared there first kiss last night in Martha MacKenzie's apartment flat above the Diner.

Miss MacKenzie who has harboured a torch for Mr Popular since first moving to the Bay at the age of just fifteen was considered one of 'the geeks' says a source.

“I can't believe this they have got this all wrong!” Martha said, her voice raising.

“Just keep reading babe!” Jack replied resting his head on her back and listening.

Mr Popular who until recently was dating at the time Miss Popular Ranya Renolds wanted nothing to do with 'the geeks' and made an every day habit of teasing them. So what has prompted these two to get together?

We spoke to Ranya Renolds about her thought's.

'Jack doesn't even like 'the face of Target' and he's only with her to get money out of her. Jack and I were together until three days ago when Martha came back into town and she stole him off me.

*Sobs*

I'm sorry it's just so upsetting that she took the one thing from me that actually meant something and it's going to hurt seeing them at school 'TOGETHER'

Jack Holden, Martha MacKenzie, Natasha Andrews and Robert Hunter have not been seen leave the apartment from the Diner since they arrived late afternoon so now the question remains...where did they all sleep in such a small apartment?

Chris Milard reporting.

“This is unbelievable I cant believe she made up a whole story to the press!” Jack stated he Martha sat the paper down and turned to him, kissing him slowly.

“As long as I have you I dont care, I mean who is seriously going to listen to that crap anyway?” Martha said ash she wrapped her arms around Jack's neck.

“Yeah your right, as long as we have each other that's all I care about and everyone knows that I wasn't with Ranya after you left!” Jack replied as Martha smiled at him and then looked over at Tasha and Robbie who had stirred from there sleep.

“Morning guys!” Martha said as Tasha sat up, rubbing her kneck and looking around the slightly dark room and then looking at the table where cards, bowl's and glasses were sitting.

“Hey, what...what time is it?” Tash asked getting up off the couch and walking into the kitchen, switching on the kettle and making herself a coffee.

“It's just going on eight!” Jack replied as Robbie sat up, picking up his glasses form the table and sitting them neatly on his nose.

“Ahhh man, Martha you need a new couch!” Robbie said getting to his feet and walking over to Tash, also making a coffee.

“Well you guys should have gone into the spare bedroom but you feel asleep on the couch and I didn't wanna wake you!”

“But...if...if we could have slept in the spare room then where...where did you sleep?” Robbie asked looking at Jack and then noticing the grin on Jack's face and how happy he was made him realize.

“Oh...oh my god you two...'

“No we did not do that, god we only got together last night but yes I asked Jack to stay in my bed with me!” Martha replied as Robbie sighed and poured the hot water into his cup, illuminating the sweet stench of coffee, floating through the air.

“Well we'd better get to school!” Martha said jumping up from Jack and pulling him to his feet as Tasha and Robbie finished there cups and followed them to the door.

At the School

Martha, Jack, Tasha and Robbie walked into the school. Martha and Jack hand in hand and Tasha and Robbie hand in hand. As they walked up to there lockers Martha and Jack arrived at Martha's locker to find a note saying 'Your a filthy sl*t' and underneath the note was the picture of Martha and Jack from that morning's paper.

Martha pulled the note off her locker just as a small groups of boys and girls walked past.

“Sl*t, hey whore, she think's she's so cool, what she gunna steal my guy next!”

“Jack!” Martha said looking at him, like she was going to cry.

“I know Martha...I know babe!” was all Jack replied as he took her into a hug.

Review...the names and emotional abuse is getting worse and becoming too much for Martha to handle...what will she do?

Chapter 18

Martha stared blindly into space as she sat in her seat at the back of the creamish coloured, boring room. Jack sat next to her and where Tasha normally sat was empty because she had a note explaining about her first lot of treatment today so the teacher had let her go, leaving just Robbie sitting in the seat next to Tasha's empty chair which made things feel like it was spiraling backwards since Martha had returned.

She contemplated leaving the bay again but couldn't because Tasha was dealing with cancer and Robbie wouldn't have anyone and she had fallen in love hardcore with Jack and as much as she now hated it, she was the face of Target, Supre and Just Jeans.

Resting her head in her hands she faced Jack who looked at her and smiled, slyly blowing at kiss her way and then she looked at the guy next to Jack...Kim had written something on a piece of paper and had handed it to someone else who opened the piece of paper, looked at it, shut the piece of paper and passed it on to the next person and so on and so forth, some people didn't write on it but some people did and when it was handed to Robbie he looked disgusted and wrote on it before looking at Martha and passing it to someone else. Once the piece of paper had gone around everyone it finally arrived at Martha. It had been folded in half and had the words 'please sign' written on it.

Opening the piece of paper she saw a question at the top.

Is Martha MacKenzie a slut?

Underneath it she saw some yes's, some hell yeah's and some get over yourself and then she saw something with Robbie's name on it.

'Martha is not a slut, has never been and never will be, a slut is someone like Ranya who think's she is all that well she's not and no one likes her. Just leave Martha and Jack for that matter alone and grow up!'

This made Martha smile, folding the paper back over she tore it up before looking at Jack who blew another kiss to her. She had to be strong, she had to look happy, she had to let people think that she wasn't phased by the name calling and the emotional abuse that she would receive in her locker every time she went to get a book, or a drink or just to brush her hair. It was really starting to make Martha self conscious, alone, un-wanted and it was starting to also annoy her because the other kids couldn't understand how in love she was with Jack, her knight and shining armor, he one true love, the one person that made her feel safe, the one person who she could talk to without feeling guilty about something.

Tasha was feeling nauseous, the treatment had kicked in and she had already spewed in a bag twice and felt like it again. Looking around the room her stomach churned and her face was pale as was another girl's face who was also on chemo, her almost black hair rested on either side of her thin and fragile shoulders and her gaunt looking face, frail and looking like it was ready to die and roll off her.

Tasha was bought back to reality by the lump in her throat and her reflex's trying to keep what she had had for breakfast, lunch and tea for the past month trying to calmly stay in her body.

Her reflex's finally gave way as she picked up the big brown paper bag and again let the contents of what she had eaten, flow out of her mouth, leaving the disgusting after taste of acid, simmering in her mouth, resting on her tounge and greeting her cheeks. Setting the bag aside the wiped her mouth with a tissue and placed that in the bin beside her before leaning her head up against the back of the chair.

“This your first time?”

Tasha looked up and held her head realizing she had looked up to fast for her body's liking, reacting her her dizziness to faint over whelming her body and concussing her brain to a lengthy discussion of itself.

“Yeah!” Tasha replied faintly holding her head, her eyes closed, feeling the world of unknown wanting to take over her, let her fade away and go to a place where cancer or nothing bad ever existed.

“You get used to it after a while!” the girl replied as Tasha finally plucked up the courage to open her eyes and face the outside world of her eye lids again.

“Used to what?” Tasha asked looking at her. This girl looked like she was in her thirties and she wasn't tall and her chest was rather small.

“The nausea, dizziness, weight loss, hair loss. This is a wig!” the girl said pointing to her hair, making Tasha's eyes widen.

“Oh!” Tasha replied as she looked at the drip in her hand, watching the small clear water like stuff float its way into her.

“If you dont mind my asking, how old are you?” the girl asked as Tasha returned her gaze back to the girl.

“17!” Tasha replied as the girl nodded. “And you?”

“13!” the girl replied.

*

Martha and Jack were walking hand in hand down the corridor's of Summer Bay High. Just as they turned the corner a girl put her foot out, making Martha trip, falling flat on her face causing the people around them erupt into laughter. Jack spun and helped Martha to her feet before turning to the girl, realizing that it was Ranya. Pinning her up against the wall he whispered in her ear.

“You ever touch my girlfriend again or say her name, even look at her and I'll kill you!” Jack said as he turned to walk away from her with Martha, not realizing that she had already gone.

“Damn it!” he yelled before taking off the only way she would have gone, to the look out.

*

Martha sat in her apartment and looked at it for a third time. Th sharp blades were mesmerizing and after everything that was going on in her life, her parents not coming home for another two weeks, School, Tasha and finally Jack she couldn't deal. Sitting on the side of the bath Martha looked out the window toward the lookout. She had contemplated going there but she knew that Jack would find her there straight away so she came straight here. Picking up the razor, she looked at her wrist's one last time before taking the blades to it, hoping Jack would burst through the door any minute and stop her.

Once, twice, three times she sliced down her wrists before turning to the other wrist and cutting. She could feel herself drifting off, drifting out and knowing she was finally going to go to a better place.

Once, twice she cut before she fell out the bathroom floor, her hair turning red from the blood she had fallen in, her body becoming more fragile by the second, her thought's drifting to that place where she would wait and be happy. Finally closing her eyes she let herself drift. Her face was wet and her body was becoming cold from losing so much blood. She heard a faint knock on the door and someone yelling out her voice.

“Jack!” she cried, she couldn't do it, she didnt want to.

“Jack help me!” she screamed one last time before her nose hit the cold tiles.

Review...Uh oh! :unsure: Will she be found in time?

Chapter 19

“Jack!”

“Jack help me!”

“Help me!”

“Help me!”

“Help me!”

“Robbie call an ambulance!”

“Now Robbie!”

Ripping off his shirt he tore it up, wrapping it around Martha's wrists and pulling them as tight as he could get them before yelling to Robbie to find out how long the ambulance was going to be.

“There on there way!” he had screamed out.

“She's lost a lot of blood, did you tell them she slit her wrist's and is bleeding to death!”

“Yes wait...can you hear that?”

“Run outside and bring them up...NOW!”

Pressing against her wrist's to slow the bleeding down, along with his shirt, he hoped, prayed to god that he wasn't to late.

“Martha it's Jack!”

“Jack!”

“Jack!”

“Jack!”

“Jack!”

“How's Martha?” he asked startling himself as he was awoken by his dad shaking him.

“She lost a lot of blood mate but that's all the doc would tell me!” Tony replied sitting next to him, handing him another shirt. Pulling it over his head he pulled it over his stomach before looking at his dad, the hurt, anger, frustration, love in his eyes.

“I thought she was dead dad!”

“But you reacted with instinct Jack which from what I heard has helped the doctor's to save her life. She has along way to go because she is still in surgery and after that it is still along way to go but with your love and support then she will get through this!” Tony replied as he patted his son on the back and got to his feet, leaving Jack to think about what Tony had just said to him.

Two hours had passed and Jack still hadn't heard anything about Martha and no one was telling him, or Tony anything which was starting to frustrate Jack. Jack had told Tasha and made her stay home and promised her he would keep her up to date on what's happening and Tasha had called him twice already and he still didn't have anything new to tell her.

“Ahhhhhh!” Jack screamed as he got to his feet and started pacing back and forth, this was really starting to **** him off, he was her boyfriend so they had to let him know what was going on, they had only just got together.

In Theater

“God this girl has done some damage, it's a wonder she didn't die from just the amount of blood she did lose.” one of the surgeons said as he stitched up her last vein that Martha had managed to cut which caused her to bleed so much.

“Ok stitch up her vein's and get everything done here. Once that's done give her some medication to thin her blood, hopefully that will stop her wrist's from clotting up!” The doctor replied as he walked out of theatre to talk to who ever was waiting to hear about her.

Walking through the double doors Tony looked at him and yelled out to Jack who came running over as fast as he could.

“How is she, hows Martha?” Jack asked as the doctor put his hand up and motioned for them to sit.

Jack and Tony sat down as the doctor pulled up a seat in front of them.

“It took a while to repair her veins because she completely cut through them, how she managed to damage both her veins before falling to the ground I dont know but she was determined to end her life. We did however manage to repair her veins, they other doctor is stitching up her wrists as we speak, now what we have to watch now is that there is no clotting because then we will have to take her to theatre but the nurses are going to give her medication to thin her blood so hopefully we dont have to take her back to theatre. Now my next concern is how long she was out before she was found because losing that amount of blood is not good for anyone, especially an 18 year old girl and what prompted her to do it because if she can do this much damage now then my main concern is if she does it again she wont make it. Once she is awake we will do a psych evaluation and then depends how she is diagnosed then we will go from there. Ahh here she comes now!” the doctor said as he got up and watched as for orderlies wheeled her into room one.

“Can I see her?” Jack asked as the doctor looked at Tony, who nodded.

“Ok but no longer than ten minutes!” the doctor replied as Jack nodded and raced into room one where Martha had just arrived.

“So was it him that found the girl?” the doctor asked as Tony nodded.

“Yeah it's Jack girlfriend, he hasn't told me what happened but I heard she had a very rough day at school because of Jack's ex-girlfriend.” Tony replied as the doctor nodded.

“Well can you make sure he is here at 1:00 Pm tomorrow so we can check to make sure he is alright after seeing that, I know it's hard for anyone to go through!” the doctor replied as Tony nodded and shook his head.

“Thanks doc!”

Tony pulled Jack's phone out of his pocket and dialed Tasha's number.

“Hello Tasha it's Tony Jack's dad, yes she is out of theatre and fine they are keeping an eye on her and will doing a psych evaluation on her tomorrow, ok darl, no, no worries ok bye!”

Pressing end on the phone he put it back in his pocket and made his way to the room where Jack and Martha were, remembering the last time he was in a hospital was when his wife died.

Review...Martha still has a long way to go! Jack goes back to school...what will happen?
