With Friends Like These

When Black Kelly gets back from New York, she discovers that more has changed than just her hair colour while she's been away. Except maybe for Nick, the bartender. Frederic found himself a girlfriend and plans to move. Kurt and Blonde Kelly live together with their one-year old child. And Patrick's gone.

Reunited with the old gang, Black Kelly realises that life went on during her absence and that things never will be the same...
