If you want to label me the bad girl, go ahead, I am simply thinking about myself and what is best for Kennie, what is it they call it? Oh yes, Woman Empowerment. We all know that Jonathan Knots is a sweet and giving guy, he is a great father figure and not too bad in the sack believe it or not honey, but Jonny forgot the most important part of marriage…
Kennie’s needs.
I know, I know it may sound selfish but is it really? Seriously, look at the entire situation from the very beginning, tell me right now that of all people Kennie is being a bitch. No… no… I didn’t fall out of love with Jonny honey, I simply can’t carry this burden anymore, needing more of a go getter than anything and he was impeding my Hollywood Lifestyle and needs. Look, things in time change, they become more about you as a person, don’t you want Kennedy Street to have great mental stability and health?
Work with me honey.
Jonny can at least brag that he slept with me, I mean how many guys can actually say that? Okay don’t answer that and get me all worked up where my anxiety kicks in. Seriously though, am I really the one to blame here when he didn’t do his job as a husband? Well maybe he did just a little but damn it, I need more! Maybe when the SCW starts realizing what I mean to this company?
Then and only then will Kennedy Street be satisfied.
Kennedy’s Home
Beverly Hills, CA.
Three Weeks Ago
I have been trying to make sense in all of this honey, why I am at an impasse, how I returned to the SCW only to find that my marriage had fallen apart, it’s not like Jonny was mean to me or anything, frugal, yes. God he is a cheap bastard, but Kennie can overlook a major character flaw. To be fair though what Kennie wants doesn’t Kennie always get? Well, my friend Toni, had some good advice, she definitely had experience in divorce, I think she was on her seventh marriage, I really don’t know but its admirable, this was my second and soon I would be the next Zsa Zsa Gabor? Nah, honey Kennedy Street is never getting married again unless it is someone rich that showers me with gifts like Blake Mason.
Oh, bad Kennie, he is married to my cousin.
Whatever.
After talking to Toni more in depth about really finding my happy place and deciding to serve Jonny with Divorce papers, I sat at home reading through them with my attorney the DILF, Dad I Like to Fuck, Broderick Chase. He is so dreamy honey, makes Simon Lyman look like Cid Turner, but we won’t go there. Sifting through the stack of papers, Toni was carefully reading through them, I was sitting there sipping some wine wanting so bad to slip my foot out of my heel and tickle Broderick between the legs, but that is not very lady like. Instead, I gazed into his eyes, and I could tell that he noticed.
“You’re raping me right now Kennedy.”
“Yes, Yes I am honey, I mean NO! NO! I am not. I was admiring your tie, it is very debonair.”
“I’m not wearing a tie.”
Damn it, he wasn’t, I swear, why do so many people pay attention to detail!?
“No, you’re not, I am imagining that you were. Anyways, I am so glad that you came at the very last minute, I know this was very sudden honey, but it has been building up for a while, I mean you know when you divorced Taylor’s mother, sure she was an alcoholic and embarrassed you at every turn, but in the end you did well. Single life, then married Vanilla Skyy, single life again. Tell me your secret.”
He blushed a little, maybe it was the right time to slip my foot out…
“Hold on!”, Toni annoyingly interrupted ruining the moment between me and my Lawyer DILF. “What Toni!?”, I replied quickly just to engage in this conversation I mean she was helping me out with this whole divorce thing. “Mr. Chase, I think we can all agree that Kennedy gets all the assets, the kid, the dog, cat, house and alimony support, she needs it to pay for all of these luxuries…. Shit I mean for Sonya’s education and future, right Kennie?”
Without hesitation I nodded.
“Oh, for sure honey!”, I responded in a bit of an elevated tone. Broderick though looked a bit confused. “Brod, what is it honey?”, I swiftly and innocently asked giving him my Puss in Boots eyes. Normally this tactic works, for some reason it wasn’t though as he seemed very concerned, how sweet, he was worrying about Kennie!
“I’m worried about Jonathan here.”
Uh… what!?
“What are you so worried about Broderick? I think that what Kennedy is asking and entitled for is legit and should be put for consideration. She was the bread maker here, the whole reason that they even have this beautiful place is because of her. I mean seriously, are we really going to penalize her because there is some sort of feeling for Jonathan when he didn’t do his job as a husband?”, Toni was on fire, she really had the right things to say honey, all I had to do was sit back and do what I have always done best, nod my head and look pretty…
“Jonathan is a good man, I am sorry that your marriage didn’t work, but he is very close to Sonya, he is also a great member of the community and loves you very much, Kennedy. If you go through with this, you’re going to break him.”, and the way he put it made me sound like a complete bitch. At this point, I really didn’t know what to do or feel. Okay that’s a lie, I did and wanted nothing more than to get what was owed to me.
“Brod, honey I’m not trying to break Jonny here at all, if anything I am the one who is broken and trying to pick up the pieces. Look at me, I’m shattered!”, though he was staring at my red body suit Louboutin heels and diamond earrings, okay I should have worn sweats! “Anyway, back to what I was saying, Brod, you have known me for a long time since I was a little Kennie, right?”
“Yes, since you were a little girl.”
“Have you ever seen me in this much anguish?”
“Once, when you and Taylor went to the Gucci store and they ran out of the belt you wanted that was on some mark down sale which wasn’t really much of a bargain for regular folk.”, damn it he remembered. “Okay, besides that day, focus on me honey, focus on Kennie’s livelihood. Jonny and I drifted apart, he wants one thing and I want another. This is my lifestyle, and he is willing to sacrifice it all for a few dollars and cents? I worked hard for this, and while wrestling isn’t giving me what I really want money wise, Jonny and I had a good life. Time to move on and your services are rather pricey though I expect a family and friends discount.”, I had to at least throw that in there.
“Kennedy, you know that my fees are pretty steep, but that doesn’t mean that I will not give you some sort of discount, sure. But Kennedy, please understand that if you are going to go through with this, please have it thought out.”
“Kennedy has it thought it, Broderick. My girl here knows exactly what she wants and there isn’t a soul here that will say different. These are the terms that she wants added to the divorce papers, it’s not like we are asking for too much, really. Right Kennedy?”
“Yes, right.”
As I stared at Broderick Chase, he knew that this was what we wanted, and I was going to get my way. After a few moments, even as his eyebrow furrowed, turning to me, he finally sighed and gave into my beauty. “Of course, Kennedy, I will make sure to draw up the paperwork, you can then serve him these papers. I will have them to you by tomorrow.”
“Good, so I can then take these to Breakdown and hand them to him.”
“Wait… what?”
I smiled innocently, batting my eyelashes some as he seemed not too amused, but Brod will get over it quickly honey. He finally conceded and I was able to get my way. “You know that I have a flair for the dramatic, why not make it public knowledge. Brod, honey just write up the paperwork, alright?”
“Okay Kennedy. I have to go but I will get these to you tomorrow morning.”
“Thank you, love you, mean it.”
As Broderick stood up, Toni escorted him out the door. After a few seconds, she looked at me and smiles, laughing a little as I had to join her in this momentous occasion.
“Girl, you did it! I cannot that you actually went through with it, but do you know what this means!? You are going to be a free woman and do whatever the hell you want! All the single ladies, right!?”, she said so enthused it was actually quite contagious. I squealed a little like a high school girl having sex for the first time and… well I’m not talking by experience or anything. “I actually went through with it, but I know there are going to be a few people that are going to have some questions for me, honey. I also need to tell Sonya though I really don’t know how she is going to react. I’m sure she will be fine with it, I mean she understands that sometimes things just don’t work out and I think once she realizes that he is not right for this household, she will totally be on board.”, though her and Jonny were really close, I don’t know if she was going to take this very well or not. I need to drink more wine, I’m one glass away from being in a great mood.
“Yes but she loves you more. Don’t worry about Sonya, I’ll talk to her too, once she sees how much better life will be without an anchor, she will come around. We really need to celebrate! I mean seriously, this is a momentous occasion!”, and she was right, the smile on her face was like a Cheshire Cat. Oh honey…. What did I do? I’m so adventurous.
A Few Hours Later
I was relaxing, shoes kicked off, I probably had a few too many glasses of wine. Resting my feet on the coffee table, Toni had left. Sonya wasn’t going to get home until later, but I wasn’t going to talk to her about anything. Jonny was out doing voice overs in Toronto; he wasn’t going to get back until tomorrow. Fuck it, poured another glass, I was almost drunk when the doorbell rang. Who is here now this late…. Wait it is only four in the afternoon, how time flies. As I get up and walk across the cold floor, I knew I should have gotten carpet, opening the door and….
“Oh shit.”
“You know why I am here, love.”
“Good afternoon sister!”
It was Trinity and she didn’t look very happy.
“Are you going to invite me in?”
“Well… I…..”
Typical Trinity just walked in past me….
“… sure, come in honey.”
As I closed the door the first thing on my mind was to grab a glass of wine and hand it to her, but she stood in front of me, and I don’t think she had any plans of drinking. I had to be the loving sister, so I went over and hugged her, but she looked at me like I had stolen her Chanel purse….
“I just talked to Broderick, and he told me that you asked for divorce papers to be drawn up. What the bloody hell is going on Kennedy? I never saw any signs that you two were unhappy, but what Brod tells me is that he doesn’t even know that you are going to serve those papers. You two have a great marriage.”
“Right, like you and Lucas have?”
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?
I try to laugh it off, but she was not having any of it. Instead, I just went into little sister Kennedy mode and try to get all emotional so she would sympathize with me and maybe I could make her understand…
“Oh honey, I have been so miserable, he has been so horrible to me and…. You are not buying it, are you?”
“Not in the fucking slightest. Now what did you mean about what Lucas, and I have?”
“He has been spending a lot of time with Christy Matthews, barely mentions you lately, I mean it must really suck to know that the man you love would rather spend most of his time working with her and doing whatever he can to make that OOC stuff work. Look, I love Lucas, he has even seen me naked, so we have that special bond, he has done so much for me, but ask yourself this Trinity, are we Street women second in line?”
She folded her arms, thinking I was getting through to her and successfully changing the subject…
“I know what you are doing, and it is not going to work, trying to change the subject and get the attention off you? I came here because you are ruining your marriage but now you want to turn it on me, remember who split Simon and I up.”
“Wait… you forgave me for that honey!”
“You’re right I did, but now you’re insinuating there is something going on between Lucas and Christy? Lucas is a good husband and an even better father. Whatever he has going on with Christy I can assure you that it is only business.”
“Is it? I’m glad you trust Lucas, because they used to be a thing, Trinity. I just don’t want my sister to be hurt by something as silly as Christy getting all fresh with your hubby. I would hope that he wouldn’t go with that ugly thing but in reality Trinity, you never know.”
I was starting to annoy her, but at the same time, I was planting the seed of doubt in her. Look, I love Lucas, but Christy Matthews is a fucking leech, honey. His choice, whatever.
“Forget Lucas. What is going on with you and Jonathan? Do you know what this will do to Sonya? That girl loves him Kennedy, you are going to turn and alienate her against you. Is that what you want? Come on, Kennedy, you’re better than this, instead you have this crazy obsession with money and fame.”
Well… duh….
“Moi!? NO HONEY! I would never be obsessed with something so trivial as that!”
“Fine then sell the house and move to Pasadena.”
“Okay let’s not get too crazy here honey, relax. Listen to me, Jonny and I have grown apart, what he wants and what I want are two completely different things.”
“So basically, he wants to live a normal life and you want to live an extravagant one, love?”
“Well…. Yeah.”
She rolled her eyes at me!?
“You are so bloody trivial Kennedy, seriously, how shallow and materialistic can you be? That man worships the ground you walk on! He would do anything for you, Kennedy and you’re willing to throw it away because he doesn’t value money and fame like you have!? That sounds very distasteful and not something that my little sister would do. Has Hollywood really fucked your head that bad? This isn’t a goddamn movie, Kennedy. You are not walking the bloody red carpet here, frankly most of your movies have been….”
“.. Oscar WORTHY!? Go ahead, say it.”
“Kennedy….”
“OMG! You are making me feel so self-conscious right now, stop, I’m a little drunk and would jump off the balcony!”
“The balcony is on the first floor; you would drop maybe 5 feet love.”
I am telling you, this attention to detail crap is starting to get really annoying! I paces a little, walking away to my safe space which is…. Nowhere because she can follow me, maybe I will pretend to pass out, yeah! No, that won’t work, I probably would pass out ands she would put my hands in cold and hot water, and I would urinate all over myself… I’ll pass. I turned to her…
“Trinity, I made my decision, I am divorcing Jonny and if I were you, I would look into Lucas and Christy because those old feelings surface, suddenly one thing leads to another, he kisses her, gets that ugly ass mouthpiece stuck on his tongue then swallows I, shitting Christy Matthews saliva all night? Okay ewwww! I love you sister, I care about you too, so trust me, all these people, after what I do, we will see who my true friends are. Just support me, we are family, like you would be there for me to the end right?”
“Depends.”
“Okay, now I want to cry. You mean that if I robbed a Louis Vuitton store you wouldn’t lie for me and say that I accidentally walked out with these pair of shoes without paying!?”
“Jesus Christ, Kennedy, seriously love, where do you come up with all these analogies. Listen to me closely, fix it. I don’t care what you have to do, fix things with your husband, this is your greed talking now, all you care about is that and nothing more these days, don’t do it please.”
Lowering my head, I ran my really long and sharp fingernails through my hair and like scratched my scalp, then I realized I need a mani/pedi, I hate this black now. I knew what she was trying to say and do, she loved Jonny, so did I but moving forward he wasn’t going to do it for me, he just wasn’t. I truly though was concerned about Trinity and Lucas though, I didn’t trust Matthews, okay I hated that cunt.
“I have to Trinity; I can’t stay in something that will not benefit me in the end. Just trust me, alright and also, I have a lot of business connections, a few owe me a favor, I can have them tail Lucas and if he is cheating on you I’ll make sure they put a lead pipe and a bicycle chain to him.”
Thinking she would be very receptive to that suggestion….
SLAM!
And that was the door as she stormed out.
Like, what the fuck!?
