A/N: This chapter was originally a short story called "The Letter". The next chapters were originally a story called "Radio Daze", but I decided to continue the story of how Campbell finds love and finally gets a family. I did make a few changes in both chapters.

Chapter One

The car stopped at the curb as the passenger side door opened and Campbell got out of the car. He pushed the blue baseball cap up when he leaned into the open window and smiled at the driver.

"See you later," Campbell said as the driver nodded and Campbell stood up, gently banging on the top of the car. Watching the car head down the street, he turned around and looked at the building. BBC GLASGOW shimmered in the sunlight as he smiled and walked quickly to the door. Opening the door, he walked inside and headed for the desk.

"Good morning!" Campbell said cheerfully to the guard at the desk and the man nodded, pushing the button that unlocked the security gate to allow Campbell to go through. Walking down the hallway, Campbell came to the lift as he pushed the button for the lift and watching the numbers moving while the lift came down to the first floor. He rocked back and forth on his heels when the doors opened and he walked inside the lift. Watching the doors close, he pushed the button and watched the numbers moving as the lift headed for the fourth floor. After the doors opened, he walked out of the lift then headed down the hallway and went around the corner. He looked at the posters of the other radio hosts when he saw his poster and stopped. CAMPBELL BAIN'S LOONY TUNES SHOW was printed in big letters across the bottom of the poster and he laughed. He still couldn't believe he had his own radio show. If it wasn't for his friend, Eddie McKenna, he wouldn't have. He still laughed at Eddie not knowing he wasn't a patient when Eddie first came to Saint Jude's but Eddie allowed him to take part in the radio station and Campbell made sure that they'd become one of the best radio teams in Glasgow. Finally a break came but it was a big break for Campbell not for Eddie. They liked him better and Campbell felt bad. He wanted to tell them no but Eddie told him to take the job and forget about him.

"But how do you forget someone that's given you so much?" Campbell thought as he walked down the hallway then stopped in front of the door to where he did his show.

"What?" Campbell asked as he looked at the paper covering the glass on the door.

"Campbell?" a voice asked as he turned around and looked at the blonde haired woman coming closer.

"What's with the paper?" Campbell asked, taking the blue baseball cap off.

"It's a surprise," Marcy McKay said, brushing some of the golden brown hair from his chocolate brown eyes. Marcy was not only his producer but his best friend and she knew about his condition. At first she was concerned when she found out he was manic/depressive but became very stern with him when he had a manic episode or was comforting when he was depressed.

"Ooooooo!" Campbell said, opening the door. He stopped short when he saw the balloons, the stack of presents on the table near where he did his show, the HAPPY 1ST. ANNIVERSARY CAMPBELL banner and large sacks of mail. He turned around to look at her as Marcy smiled and he blinked. "What's all this?!"

"It's your anniversary! It was a year ago TODAY that you did your first broadcast!"

"I forgot all aboot that!" Campbell said, walking to the chair and looked at the small cupcake in front of him. Marcy walked closer when she took a lighter out and lit the candle.

"Make a wish!" Marcy whispered as Campbell closed his eyes, made a wish and blew the candle out. "So what do you want tae do today?"

"I have NO clue!" Campbell said. Looking around, he saw the comedy records on the shelf behind him and took one of the albums off the shelf. "Oh, I got a great idea! Today is going tae be a comedy day!"

"Every day is a comedy day with you, Love!"

"Funny. Anyway, I'm going tae pick some bits, maybe have callers call in with what they want tae hear, and..." Campbell said then looked at the sacks of mail. "...read some fan mail in between."

"As long as you do the commercials and keep it clean," Marcy said, wagging a finger at him.

"Any naughty bits you hear you can bleep out."

"Ok. Oh, you might want tae open the top present!"

"Why?"

"Well, you do know that the radio awards were last night."

"I wasnae allowed tae go," he said with a pout and folded his arms around his stomach.

"Well, they didnae want you tae be upset if you didnae win," she said as she touched his upper arm and he sighed.

Campbell had been nominated for THE BEST NEW DISC JOCKEY award but the station and St. Jude's were afraid of his reaction to if he had won or not and the station agreed with his doctors that he should not attend the ceremony. Campbell took the present off the pile when he opened it and blinked.

"It's a...frame."

"Turn it around."

Slowly, he turned the frame around as his heart slammed wildly in his chest and his eyes went wide.

"I won?" he asked with wide eyes.

"That you did!" Marcy said, hugging him and he was shaking. She jumped when he screamed and let go of him.

"I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON!" Campbell shouted, hopping around the room and Marcy laughed.

"Calm down!" Marcy laughed, leaving the room and closed the door. Walking to the other room, she watched him jumping around the room and was shouting that he won. She sat down when she placed the headphones on and pushed the intercom button. "Put your ears on, Love."

Campbell calmed down as he sat down then placed the headphones on and looked at her. Marcy counted down when he saw the ON THE AIR sign light up and the introduction music played.

"You are listening tae Campbell Bain's Loony Tunes show and I AM Campbell Bain! Today is a special day! It's my anniversary! That's right! It was one year ago today that I did my first show! Also, I WON THE BEST NEW DISC JOCKEY AWARD! Yes! Ok, sorry, I think I just blew out my producer's eardrums. Now, seeing that I won, today is a special treat. I am going tae play nothing but comedy bits! If there is anything you want tae hear, just call in and I'll play it if I got it! I am also going tae read some of the fan mail. You should see the size of these mail bags! They're huge! But. I think I'll start off with a letter then some comedy. I'll just reach in tae the bag and..." Campbell said, reaching into the mail bag then took out an envelope and looked at the address.

The letter was from Eddie.

"Campbell?" Marcy asked, watching him open the envelope and look at the letter.

Campbell.

How are you? I'm fine. As you can see, I am living in London now. I got a job at a small radio station. I hear that you're doing well, too, and that the show is a hit. Knew you had it in you. I never imagined that I would meet someone like you. You were this energetic kid that faked being manic so he could stay in a mental hospital and help run a radio station. To this day I don't understand why you did that. Oh, I know that you really are manic but that was really dumb. Don't get me wrong. I did enjoy working with you. You had this energy that I wish I had when I was your age. I guess I lost it over the years and I didn't want you to waste your chance at doing something I knew you were enjoying. I was angry to lose the job to you but I knew you'd be more upset over losing it than I was. I am very proud of you, Campbell. Keep up the good work and remember...WE ARE LOONIES AND WE ARE PROUD!

Write back if you want.

Eddie.

Campbell read the letter a few more times when he heard someone tap on the glass and looked up.

"Oh! Sorry! Um, I think I'll skip this one and play something!" Campbell said, placing the record on the turntable and placed the needle down. He pushed the button when he sat back in the chair and read the letter again. Smiling, he placed his feet up on the console then picked up the award and looked at it, feeling very proud of himself.
