Summary: Katie and Gerry may have broken up, but that doesn’t mean he can have a successful date. Based on the song “Jezebel” by Chely Wright.

Disclaimer: Gerard Butler and the song aren’t mine. The song I don't mind, but dammit I wish Gerry was mine!!

A/N: Rated R for use of voodoo dolls etc. Its almost exactly like the music video if you have seen it. I hope its not too unrealistic lol. Hope you all like it. :)

Characters:
Katie Sheridan
Gerry Butler
Jezebel Jones
Sadie Sheridan
Will Sullivan


I give him love the best I can
But you don't seem to understand
It's not always deep
But it's always true
And he does not belong to you

Hey I do not forgive and I do not forget
I will fight for love until the death

“What do you mean you’ve got a date? I thought you swore off girls.” A female voice rang out in a house in Glasgow, Scotland.

“Well I changed me mind Katie.” A male Scottish voice replied as he folded his arms across his chest.

Katie Sheridan rolled her eyes as she sat down at the dining room table with a glass of red wine in her hand.

“What? I came here asking for advice and I get a bloody lecture! How did that happen?” Gerard Butler asked getting annoyed by his ex-girlfriend and good friend.

“Hey you asked! And of course I’m not that thrilled about my ex-boyfriend whom I am still in love with is going out with someone…by the way who are you going out with?” Katie asked curiously.

Gerry turned his head and mumbled a name, but it was loud enough for Katie to widen her eyes and then narrow them in anger.

“You’re going out with Jezebel? Gerry, she cheated on you remember! Why are you going with her? Do you want to get laid that badly??!?!” Katie yelled jumping up from the chair and walking over to him.

“Gerry, please don’t do this. Don’t put yourself through this torture, I don’t want you to get hurt. Because she will hurt you. Please Ger Bear…don’t do this.” She said placing her arms on his arms rubbing them gently.

Gerry glanced down at her and noticed the concern in her eyes begging him not to do this. He knew that Jezebel had hurt him, but wasn’t sure why she was wanting him to see her again. But most of all, he wasn’t even sure why he was going out with her when he still was in love with Katie.

He glanced down at her hands and then shrugged them off as he walked towards the front door that was covered with rain that was coming down.

“I’m going Katie, get over it. And don’t wait up for me.” Gerry growled, more mean that he intended as he grabbed his cell phone, wallet and car keys as he ran outside to his car leaving Katie standing there mad, but also her heart was breaking inside.

She watched Gerry pull out of the driveway and then grabbed the cordless phone to call her twin sister Sadie who was into tarot cards and all that stuff.

“Hello Sis, you have troubles…” Sadie Sheridan said into the phone as she sat down in her living room in London, England.

“Yes I do Sadie, Gerry is out with Jezebel. I need help.” Katie replied.

“He’s what?!? Now there’s the evidence you need Katie, he’s stupid. I don’t know why you still love him.” Sadie shrieked.

“Because I still do. Anyways Sadie, I need your help. I want to ruin the date, not to have Gerry run back to me, but just for him to know that he will get hurt again.” Katie said chewing on a nail as she sat down at the couch and pulled out a box from underneath it.

“Okay, got the voodoo doll?” Sadie asked curiously.

“Yes.”

“Okay make it look like her, then grab a needle, matches and then a glass of red wine and only red wine. Then if you really want to see what happens, call Will.” Sadie replied.

Katie ran around the house grabbing the things and then stopped.

“Hmmmm Will, I forgot about him. Good idea sis, thanks.” She replied.

“No problem, good luck and let me know what is going on.” Sadie said as they both hung up the phone at the same time.

Jezebel
save your charms
He'll be back here in my arms
Oh how quickly you forget
He is not yours yet
He is not yours not yet

Katie called the pub where she knew Gerry and Jezebel and asked for Will, the bartender and manager.

“Allo?” Will’s thick Scottish accent came on the phone.

“Will! Hi it’s Katie Sheridan, how are you tonight?” Katie asked as she got the voodoo doll ready.

“Fine doll, I miss ye tons. Have ye been hiding from me?” Will Sullivan asked loudly.

She laughed.

“Nope, just not in the mood to go out lately. I need to do me a favor ok?” she asked.

“For me favorite American, anything for ye love. What’s up?” he asked.

“Gerry’s on his way or should be there any minute, I need you to videotape him and his date. I’ll even pay you and when they leave, run over to my house and give it to me okay?” Katie asked feeling bad, but oh well.

“Of course love, I’ll hurry right on over and don’t ye dare pay me. Don’t worry about it. Now I gotta go, see ye tonight love.” Will said as he hung up the phone and fixed the surveillance camera and then saw Gerry, Katie’s ex boyfriend with another girl.

Will couldn’t help, but growl in disgust at Gerry because he knew he was hurting Katie in the process. Whatever Katie had planned, he hoped it worked because Gerry and Katie loved one another and didn’t realize that they were soulmates.


Katie sat down and then placed a needle in the middle of the voodoo doll and then lit a match running the flame over the needle hoping that Jezebel would begin sweating like crazy in an already hot environment.


“Are ye alright?” Gerry asked his date curiously as beads of sweat were rolling down her forehead.

“Oh yes I’m fine thanks love.” Jezebel replied as she wiped away the sweat in disgust and smiled seductively at Gerry who smiled weakly and suddenly his Pepsi was very interesting.

She ran her hand up and down Gerry’s muscular arm and he immediately turned around with wide eyes.

“What are ye doing?” he asked.

Gonna throw on this cotton dress
Put lilac scent on the back of my neck
Walk barefoot down that mountainside
Straight to your door girl you can't hide

'Cause I do not forgive and I do not forget
I will fight for love until the death

Katie placed a finger inside her glass full of red wine and then ran it down the voodoo doll praying that this trick would work, if it succeeded, then Jezebel would have dumped her drink all over her and possibly Gerry.

She grinned evilly waiting patiently as the evening progressed hoping that Gerry was having a miserable time.

Jezebel
save your charms
He'll be back here in my arms
Oh how quickly you forget
He is not yours yet
He is not yours not yet

Gerry was having a miserable time getting seductive looks from his date and glares from Will, the bartender whom was good friends with Katie. He deserved the glares, he admitted it. Why was he doing this to himself?

“Gerry, I loved you in Phantom, you were wonderful in it.” Jezebel said with a smile.

He slowly turned his head and raised an eyebrow.

“Ye hate musicals remember?” he replied.

“Oh…well…I love Phantom though, did you like it?” she asked.

“Yes, where is this going? What do ye want from me?” Gerry asked impatient.

Jezebel said nothing, but grabbed his face and kissed him hard on the lips. Gerry pushed her away and wiped his lips in disgust.

“I would love to get back together with you Gerry, I’ve missed you so much.” She said trying to lean against him, but he jumped away from her.

“Really now? Yeah like ye missed me when ye cheated on me? Oh I see, ye only want me because I have money and am famous? Listen to me good because I am only saying this once, stay away from me! Ye’re still the same person ye were when I first met ye. Leave me alone ye slut!” Gerry growled as he grabbed his jacket and walked out of the pub.

Will grabbed the tape in his hand and jumped in his car as he drove as fast as he could over to Katie’s house.

Standing out in the pourin' rain
Callin' out my lover's name
I know he won't leave me in the cold
Send my baby home
Send my baby home

Will pounded on the glass door of Katie’s house 5 minutes later and he saw Katie running like a cross country runner over to the door and then swung it open.

“Will! Thank you so much, I owe you big!” she said out of breath and then hugged him tightly.

“Nae ye don’t love. Just watch it.” Will said with a wink as he hurried back to his car in the rain down the driveway.

Katie watched him leave and then ran over to the TV that was already set up and placed the tape in the VCR and began watching the tape of Gerry and Jezebel’s date smiling at the sweating, spilling of the wine laughing when some got on Gerry’s pants and him pushing her away at the kiss.

Right when the tape ended, a knock was heard at the door and Katie got up quickly pulling the tape from the VCR and shoving it under the couch as she walked over to the door and saw a soaked Gerry standing there with a miserable look on his face.

She threw open the door and dragged Gerry back inside the house.

“You’re back early, go get changed into dry clothes and then come back downstairs and tell me what happened.” Katie said as he nodded and went upstairs to his bedroom.

***
A few minutes later, Gerry came down the stairs and saw that the lights were out, but candles were lit in the living room.

He slowly walked in there and saw Katie in the silk nightgown she loved with her bathrobe that matched, and was her Christmas present the past year. He sat next to her on the couch and accepted a glass of wine.

“So what happened Gerry?” Katie asked taking a sip of her wine.

“It was a complete disaster, ye were right Katie, I am so sorry if I hurt ye. Believe me that wasn’t me intention.” He replied.

“Well truth of the matter is that you did hurt me Gerry, but I’m glad you realize that Jezebel hadn’t changed. I’m sorry you had to do deal with that.” She replied.

Gerry sat his glass of wine down and ran his hands through her hair and sighed.

“I am sorry I hurt ye Katie, I love ye and the last thing I want is to hurt ye again. I still love ye.” He confessed.

She glanced up at him in shock.

“You do?” she asked.

“Of course I do. I always will love ye.” Gerry said.

Katie set her glass down next to Gerry’s on the coffee table as she leaned over and kissed his lips softly. She started to pull away when she felt his arms go around her waist and kiss her back a bit harder.

“I have been waiting for you to say that to me again Gerry, I love you too. So much that it hurts when you’re not with me. I’m scared of losing you.” She said as she fought back tears.

“Oh Katie that will never happen, oh God Katie I love ye so much!” Gerry said as he wiped away her incoming tears and kissed her once more sealing the promise of eternity.

Jezebel
save your charms
He'll be back here in my arms
Oh how quickly you forget
He is not yours yet
He is not yours not yet

The End

hahaha! I really liked this fic! The song choice was awesome, and I gotta say the voodoo doll part cracked me up. A friend of mine bought me a voodoo doll after I broke up with my boyfriend last year and it really was hilarious.

Lovely little shortie, my dear! And, Gerry.......yum! :kissi:

:cloud#9: Aahhh! That was awesome. Haha. Jezabel is such an awesome song. :yay:

And, of course, he has to crawl (dignified, of course) back into Katie's arms. Woot for the cameo of Will! Yee-ah. :shine:

Mmmmm. I love Gerry. :yum:

:heartbeat:
Samma

This was a cute little shortie, and the vodoo doll was quite original.
Nice work!
