Disclaimer: Do not own it.
Notes: I get most of my ideas from music. This choice of song for this FF is "In Your Eyes" By Peter Gabriel, mainly used in Say Anything, a 80's film. It was supposed to be a One Shot, but the plot became more developed. We will see. Um... pairings? Mark/Maureen, Maureen/Joanne, Roger/Mimi, And Roger/Maureen. You'll just have to read, won't you? Please review, cos' reviews are love and I need love right now. Oh, and minor mistakes may appear through-out it. I'm writing this late and my cat's butt in my face... so... um... on with the story.
"MAUREEN! JOANNE! OPEN THE DOOR!" Roger yelled, banging on the hard, steel door.
This, of course, scared the living hell out of Maureen. She was cuddled on the couch with a bowl of popcorn, enjoying one of her favorite movies ever- "Say Anything." She was home alone. Joanne had to work late and Mark wouldn't come over. He, for once, refused one of her requests.
Maureen mumbled curses as she stopped the movie and stomped over to the door, then opened it. "What the hell do you want?" She growled to the old rock star before her.
He pushed around her and jumped on the couch. This caused Maureen to roll her eyes and slam the door behind her. Standing with her hands on her hips, she waited.
Roger groaned. "Can I crash here for a bit? Mimi's being a whore and is all pissed at me."
"Then go to your loft. Not mine." Maureen said sternly. "Go hang out with your lover-boy Mark."
"He's bitching at me about treating Mimi more nicely. I hate when he rants."
"Oh my God, I know," Maureen said in her "gossip" tone and pushed his legs off the couch so she could sit next to him.
"Well, honey bear," He said, mocking her, "He had to rant at you because, you know, when your girlfriend cheats with other girls, it's kind of a rule to talk about it." He sneered.
"Shut up. You're in my apartment, I can kick you out." She shot back.
"Whatever," He growled and closed his eyes. "Gimme some popcorn."
"Say please."
"No Maureen. Give it." He said calmly. After a few seconds, he grumbled and got it himself.
Maureen ignored him and squealed when she started to play her movie again.
"What the hell is this?" He asked, shoving a fist full of popcorn in his mouth.
"Say Anything," She growled, slapping his leg to keep him quiet.
"Oh. Never seen it- WAIT!" He snapped, sitting up quickly.
"What?" Maureen snorted, snatching the bowl from his hands so he wouldn't spill her popcorn.
"I have seen this movie! It's the one with that one song, right?" He asked, looking at her.
"I don't know what the hell you're talking about." She sighed, pausing her movie once more.
"You know... that one song," He cleared his throat and sang, "Between your thighs... the light, the heat, your thighs... I am complete... your thighs..."
"ROGER!" Maureen snapped. "That's disgusting and not even funny! It's 'in your eyes'!"
He let out a throaty laugh and shoved her playfully. "I know you like that version better."
"Shut up." She growled and turned her movie back on, turning off the side lamp beside her and pulling the blanket she had around her.
"Give me some. I'm cold," He said, shoving her around so he could have some of the blanket as well.
This ended up in them cuddling close and watching the movie contently together. As soon as the "In Your Eyes" scene came up, Maureen let out another squeal and turned it up insanely loud.
Roger grunted and looked down at her, which resulted in her looking up at him and for a split second, their eyes locked.
Maureen grinned and whispered, "In your eyes..."
Roger grinned and responded with, "The light, the heat..."
"Your eyes..."
They continued the song back and fourth, noticeably getting closer. Without a second thought, in the heat of the moment, Maureen pressed her lips to his.
Roger leaned in, holding her closer.
Soon, something snapped and she jerked away. "What the hell are you doing?" She snapped, shoving him away.
"You kissed me!" He yelped, wiping his mouth.
Maureen bit her lower lip and sighed. "It was... that song. I love that song."
Roger grumbled something and sighed. "Mimi's gonna kill me. She's already pissed!"
She looked over at him. "Don't tell her. Has she seen this movie?" Maureen asked, looking at him, but keeping her distance.
"No... I don't know... no." He confirmed, not looking at her.
Maureen grinned. "Get your ass up, I have an idea." She grabbed his hand and pulled him to his feet.
A/N. Alright, for the Roger/Maureen fans... there you go. For the Roger/Mimi fans, don't worry, they're staying together. Mark/Mo and Mo/Jo will come in later. I know, you may be able to see where this is going, but don't hold your breath. I got a lot of ideas floating around, so hang in there. And always... review!
