Mimi was angry. How could Nick ruin her plans like that? She started thinking that she had this spell on her which repelled boys.
Matt was standing further away and talking to some models and journalists who wanted to know about his break-up with Sam. 'Typical' Mimi thought. She wasn't intending to stand there and watch him being wooed so she went to get herself some champagne.
-So why did you break up?
-Well, It wasn't working and we ended it.
-Do you still love her?
-No, I don't.
-So, you are up for new girls?
-NO!..I mean no, not really. I want to be on my own for now..
-But, then, who were you talking about at the concert then? Who was 'SHE'?
-That's none of anyone's business. What is this, some kind of an interview?
Just in that moment, somebody approached Mimi.
-Hey how are you doing? I heard you designed half the dresses being worn tonight, and you did a great job.
-Thank you. It took me quite a while though. I wonder what you will think about what Maria is wearing because that wedding gown is the best piece I've done so far.
-Oh you designed that as well? That was such an amazing gown.
-How come you've seen it already?
-Oh, I'm sorry, I'm Dave, Maria's brother.
-Oh!I'm sorry for being rude. I knew you looked familiar. I wonder why we've never met before. I've known Maria for ages!
-Well, I was working abroad you see. Now I decided that it's time to come back to my homeland and enjoy my life. But I've heard a lot about you.
-Oh!That's great, you should hang out with us sometime. Come by later and I'll make you meet my friends.
-Good idea!See you around then Mimi.
After meeting Dave, Mimi went back to talk to her friends. She could see Matt around so she felt more comfortable. After seeing how Nick cheated Mimi that night, Matt would definitely make some cruel comments about her failing relationships and she didn't want to listen to all that.
- Hey Meems. Where is Nick?Matt told me that he left.
-Yes Sora..well..something came up so he had to leave.
-Oh..Ok. So are you excited about what people will say about Maria's dress?
-I guess I am. The ceremony is about to start. We should head to the chapel.
-Tai, Matt, Tara..Let's go. It's time.
They then entered the chapel and to Mimi's surprise, she found herself seated between Matt and Dave. Dave was excited to see her and started talking to her immediately.
Dave: Mimi, I can tell which color you like the most!
Mimi: Really?How?
Dave: Well, most women are wearing black so you must love black!
Mimi: Oh..(she smiled) no-
Matt: Actaully, she hates black. She jsut thinks it's a provocative color so she likes to use it on dresses.
Mimi looked at Matt, she was surprised and annoyed. Dave was interested in what she had to say and she didn't want Matt being involved. She shot him a loot and he replied. "What?It's true!"
Dave: Oh so you don't like it? You are right. Black could make it too funeral-like.
Mimi: Yes, that is so correct Dave!You really have some hidden talent for fashion!Are you sure you don't want to get involved in designing?If you are interested, you should stop by at my office and I'll show you some of the work I do.
Dave: That's a good idea-
Matt was annoyed.
Matt: (to Mimi) But you never ask anyone for help except for Jenna?!
Mimi: Well now I do!
She then turned to Dave and smiled.
Mimi: So just come by anytime.
Dave: I definitely will. I want to spend some time with you anyway.
Matt rolled his eyes at this comment and Mimi saw. How could Mimi flirt with this guy while she was standing next to him? Expecially with this businessman-turned-into-a-fashion-designer guy!
Dave: How about a drink on Tuesday night? I would love to take you out at night.
Just when Mimi was about to reply:
Matt: No, she can't make it.
He wasn't even looking at Dave.
Dave: (to Matt) Why not?
Matt: Because she goes out with her every Tuesday. Family tradition. Nobody can change that. And you, (he shot Dave a look) would never be a reason for her to change her plans.
Dave felt offended and Mimi couldn't stand Matt answering instead of her. She had to do something.
Dave: I'm sorry we haven't met-
Mimi: That's ok. He's nobody. As for Tuesday night-
Matt: EXCUSE ME!I'M NOBODY?
Matt was so loud that everyone in the chapel turned around to look at him. Everybody was waiting for Maria to appear on the aisle but she wasn't coming. People were frustrated. Some models were gossiping and wondering if she had ran away. You could hear people feeling pity for the groom already:
'Poor groom'
'Yeah, he loved her so much!'
'Well I guess not she didn't love him as much as we thought she did!'
'oh dear!'
Mimi was extremely annoyed even though she liked the fact that Matt was trying to stop her flirting with others. Her plan was working after all. She turned to Matt:
Mimi: Yes Matt, you don't have to get involved in every conversation I have.
Matt: Well, maybe you are right about that but how can you introduce me to him as 'nobody'!?
Dave: I wasn't meaning to be rude-
Matt looked at Dave and spat: "I don't care about what you were meaning to be!" He was angry and he was bad at managing his anger.
Mimi: Stop being so rude to Dave! Just mind your own business!
Matt: Fine!
Mimi: Fine!
Tara, Sora and Tai were following the conversation from the back seat. They smiled to each other and couldn't help and giggle a little.
Matt/Mimi: Stop it you guys!
Mimi wasn't going to let Matt get away that easily. She was going to make him work hard for forgiveness.
Mimi: Dave, as for Tuesday night, I would love you to come along with me and my sister. After all, she should meet the guy I'll be spending hours with in the evenings in the studio!
Dave and Mimi smiled at each other.
Matt was bright red but he couldn't say anything. If she was going to play it dirty, he would do the same.
I am so sorry to have updated so late. I know no excuse could make it up to you guys! But please review if you can! Thanx
