So I don't know if this will be a story with a few more chapters, of if it's going to just be a one-shot, but this idea has been floating in my head for a while, so I decided to write it down.

Mike had just been launched from the Hurl of Shame, and the yacht that the original cast was in picked him up. He was in a robe while his clothes were in the laundry room. He was sitting on the dock quietly, and had 4 men approach him.

"So, why are we here? I could be back in the spa room tending to my pores. Or watching the sauna make my muscles glisten in sweat. Or one of the ladies could be pleasing me in any way possible."

"GOSH, no one cares about that. You've already visited there 3 GOTDAMN TIMES TODAY."

"I don't blame him for wanting to go back. Sierra gave me a MESMERIZING massage with the oils that the spa room provided. My back has never felt better in years."

"Can you guys just relax? Clearly the guy we just picked up is distraught. It's still going to be a few hours until he gets dropped off to Playa. Look at him."

Mike turned around after hearing 4 voices, and saw Harold, Trent, Justin, and Cody lurking behind him. He gave a weak wave, "Uh... hey Drama Brothers. Sorry for me ruining the vibe. Just went through a lot."

They all sat down in front of him, and Cody placed a reassuring hand on Mike's knee, "What's the problem? Being on this show involves a lot of trauma, and who knows what Chris is doing to the newer generation, who is naturally more naive..."

"No it isn't that... I found the girl of my dreams. Her name is Zoey, and we officially agreed to go out together. The issue is, I have Multiple Personality Disorder..."

Harold instantly corrected him, "Dissociative Identity Disorder. That title you're using is painfully inaccurate and offensive."

Justin rolled his eyes, "No one cares Harold."

Mike just sighed, before continuing, "One of my multiple personalities, a Guido named Vito... ended up hooking up with Anne Maria, but I have no attraction to her, and it made things complicated with me and Zoey. There was a lot of drama between the two girls, I didn't fully realize what was going on, and neither one of them knew about my disorder. Zoey does now, but I'm nervous about having to deal with Anne Maria, and telling her. She's... very tough, volatile, and aggressive."

Harold started to smile, "Sounds like my luscious goddess Leshawna."

"Wait, is that the Jersey girl? How could you pass up that sexy, vivacious babe? And isn't Zoey that plain, dull redhead? I just remember seeing the cast picture, and... Wow, your taste sucks," Justin ranted.

Trent slapped Justin on his back, "For goodness sakes, SHUT UP JUSTIN. Maybe... maybe you should go back to the spa, since you're of no use for this one." He moved to sit beside Mike, and to wrap his arm around the younger man's shoulder, "As someone who has made a fool of himself for love on the show, being honest is the only way to go, in order for it to last. Clear the air properly. You need to tell Anne Maria everything, so she knows where your interest lies; with Zoey. I made a big mistake not clearing things up with Gwen properly, and now I have to watch her and Duncan get cozy EVERY DAY on this stupid yacht. Not only for yours and Zoey's sake, but for Anne Maria's sake too, so she could move on to someone who will appreciate her love and affection. If you don't, you'll end up like Cody."

The brunette instantly glared at Trent, "HEY! I AM... warming up to Sierra. And I let you and Gwen hook up, though it hurt every part of my body. Not cool Trent."

Mike sighed, though he knew that Trent was telling the truth, "While it hurts, you are right. I will definitely talk to Anne Maria when I arrive, though I might end up with broken bones."

Anne Maria had 3 or 4 pieces of lingerie on her bed, and she had the girls Staci, Dawn, and Dakotazoid be the judge, jury, and executioner, "Thanks Dakota for letting me grab some of your lingerie." They saw some of the footage of the last episode, and knew that Mike was on his way.

"Well, I can't wear any of them anymore, due to... my condition," she whined, as she wagged her tail, and crossed her hands as she sat in a ball. "Oh, and the green one does not go well with your skintone. Can it."

All Dawn could do was sigh, and shake her head, "Anne Maria, I've warned you for weeks now that things are not going to turn out well. Your abandonment and identity issues due to being adopted, not knowing who your birth father is, and your adopted father abandoning you causes you to latch onto men, even those who shows no interest in you. What you need to do is work on your issues, since Mike isn't going to solve it."

"Yah, so my great great grand aunt invented lingerie, since they were tired of those long sheets they would wear as undergarments, and she wanted women to feel sexy," rambled Staci, causing all of the women to roll their eyes.

The Guidette had more than enough, and grabbed one of them, "Red is fine. I should have just brought Brick in here instead of the three of you. Dawn, no one wants to hear about all of that mumbo jumbo voodoo stuff. Just because you're scared to tell Beverly how you feel, it doesn't mean everyone is gonna be bitter just like you. And Staci, FYI, NO ONE BELIEVES IN YOUR FAMILY LIES GIRL! GET A CLUE! Vito and I are MADE for one another, and I KNOW we're gonna smush tonight."

A knock on the door was heard, with Brick and Sam being on the other side of it, "Ladies, we got the protocol to make it to the Dock. Mike is going to be here any moment, and it's best if we were punctual to give the best welcome possible."

"I'm shocked Dakota managed to make it through the door. What are you girls doing in there anyways? I thought we were all gong to be by the bar, getting our drinks on as usual once someone shows up."

Dakota, Dawn, and Staci was shoved out of the door, and it was slammed behind them, "Y'ALL CAN GO. I'LL BE THERE FOR MY BABY IN A MINUTE."

Mike watched the yacht land onto the dock of Playa de Losers, and he saw Staci, Dakota, B, Dawn, Sam, and Brick. He was very relieved when Anne Maria was not visible, and his nerves decreased. He went to shake hands with most of the cast, and ended up hugging Dakota and Brick, since those were his teammates, "It's nice to see you all."

"We're glad to see you too soldier. I could only imagine what happened this round," Brick greeted lightly.

Dawn sighed in sadness, "Something tells me that this has Scott written all over it, but the details are fuzzy. What happened Mike?"

"So Chris told us that the teams were merged, which everyone predicted. He also told us before the challenge that the person who wins immunity gets the sole vote to boot someone off the island," he revealed, causing everyone to gasp. "Scott tricked Cameron into telling him that I had Multiple Personality Disorder, and used it to blackmail me into helping him win immunity. He got immunity, and I had a meltdown, where everything got revealed. Zoey and I are officially together, and Scott decided to boot me."

Sam cringed, "Damn, Anne Maria's gonna LOVE this."

B shrugged his shoulders, and Staci added her commentary, "Well, I have an uncle who works in Dissassociative Identity Disorder Prognosis for a living. Maybe you need another doctor Mike, but it isn't surprising to be honest, yah."

"I saw that through your aura on Day 1 Mike. I'm glad you decided to come clean with Zoey, but now I think you should come clean to..." Dawn started speaking, until she was cut off.

Anne Maria's shrill voice pierced through everyone's ears, "VITO BABY, MAMA'S HOME." She sexily strolled through the dock, with every step causing her volumptuous breasts to almost spill out of her small red bra, and her thick buttocks to jiggle in all the right ways. Brick, Sam, and B couldn't help but look at Anne Maria's swaying body as she made her way to wrap her arms around Mike's neck, "I've missed you Vito baby. Now that it's just you and me, we could smush and make love all night. I set up my bedroom to have the most seductive vibe, just for the two of us all night long."

Mike uncomfortably removed her arms from his neck, and placed them to her sides, as he created some distance between them, as her breasts were pressed against his chest, "Uh... Hi Anne Maria. We need to talk... privately, and the sooner this conversation is had, the better for the both of us."

He lead her to the beach chairs, and right as she was about to sit in the same chair as him, Mike cut her off, "Trust me, you're not going to want to be beside me after I finish what I have to say."

The tone definitely worried her, "What's wrong baby? You seem dejected or whateva the word is. I thought you would be happy for us to be reunited. Remember when you told me that we would plan our future together, and how we will date after the show?"

"Yeah... about that. You see, I have a disorder called Multiple Personality Disorder, where I have different personalities that pop up due to certain triggers. Vito's trigger was whenever I removed my shirt, but he's just a fake personality. He was never a real person." Mike started getting nervous, and sweating profusely as he continued the story, while Anne Maria's face became a lot more confused, "I dealt with... a lot of trauma when I was a child, and these personalities came to be as a defense mechanism. Vito's creation was... was... a result of a few things. One of them was because my first crush was someone like you."

Anne Maria got a little bit of hope, "Wait, so... you like me. You just admitted it. I heard a little bit about this Multiple Personality thingy, which is kind of confusing, but I don't see why it's such a big issue. We want to be together."

Mike was starting to get slightly frustrated, but maintained his cool, "Vito came to be when I was about 12, meaning he didn't exist beforehand. I liked a girl who was similar to you, and she broke my heart. Another reason for his existence is because someone... that was older than me, and was supposed to look out for me... took advantage of me. You fell in love with a persona. Mike, the real person has always liked Zoey, and... we made things official during the last challenge. She knows everything, and accepts me for who I am."

"Wait what? So because someone who looked like me broke your heart, you played with my emotions? And you're with Miss. Goody-Goody now? What did I do to deserve this?"

"HEY, DON'T insult Zoey. And didn't you think it was always odd that we only had good discussions when my shirt was off? And I would always be confused afterwards? The real person of Mike was never attracted to you, or in love with you. I'm sorry Anne Maria."

The Guidette couldn't handle all of this, "You TOLD ME that Mike was an act. Was THIS what Dawn was warning me about for all of this time?" As she saw Mike's dejected reaction, she got more and more frustrated, "So when we made out during the "Finders Creepers" challenge all of those times, it meant NOTHING? When we made love after the challenge, it meant NOTHING? So after the beach challenge, where you told me that we would agree to date after the show, and eventually move in together meant NOTHING? WHAT ABOUT all of those times we had secret dates, and got to bond over our Italian heritage? I... I TOLD YOU THAT I WAS ADOPTED. I DON'T TELL ANYONE THAT."

Mike was getting nervous, and didn't know how to react, "I'm sorry, but I don't remember ANY of that. I had to be TOLD about some of those things by others. We are not compatible at all Anne Maria, and I am with Zoey now. After I had a meltdown in the last challenge, I defeated my personalities, and Vito doesn't exist anymore. I had to get this off my chest to everyone, and you were the final person I told. He isn't coming back, ever."

Tears came out of her eyes, with all of her dreams crashing down, "I... I can't believe this. NOT ONLY did I quit due to that DIAMOND BEING A FAKE, where it would have had enough money for Vito and I to start our lives together, and now VITO DOESN'T EVEN EXIST? WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING EARLIER? Zoey and I were GOING AT IT FOR WEEKS over you, and YOU DID NOTHING!"

"I mean, no offense, but you're not the easiest person to speak to, and I didn't want Zoey to think I was a freak, and leave me. "

"OH HELL NO! You are NOT TURNING THIS AROUND ON ME! JO AND ZOEY CALLED ME A HOMEWRECKER FOR WEEKS, WHEN NO ONE WAS DATING ANYONE. YOU LET THE BOTH OF US FIGHT OVER A MAN, WHEN YOU COULD HAVE JUST TOLD ME, OR TOLD HER ABOUT YOUR CONDITION OR WHATEVER, AND THAT YOU ONLY LIKED HER! YOU'RE A FUCKING COWARD!"

Sam was lurking behind the trees watching this, "Ooh, this is good. Even better than I thought."

Dawn just shook her head, "I warned her about this for almost a month at this point. She didn't want to listen, and sadly had to learn for herself. She's just a big ball of insecurity deep down, behind the hairspray and toxic orange tan."

"At least she chose a color that matched her golden skin," Brick complimented, which caused the others to glare at him, "What? That color is sexy, and I have good taste in fashion and color scheme."

Mike could not hold back anymore, "And THIS is a PRIME EXAMPLE as to WHY I did not speak to you during the time. Listen, I understand that you are hurt, and it was never my intention, but how you are handling things DOES NOT help. I mean, you were more mad at ZOEY than anyone else. We were TRYING to work things out in the beach challenge, but you took things to a violent level, and then MADE FUN OF HER in the fashion challenge. She is innocent in this."

Anne Maria couldn't help but wave her fingers, "HOLD UP, HOLD UP, HOLD UP. ZOEY IS A PICK-ME "GOOD GIRL" WHO THROWS SHADE. And me PUSHING HER OFF THE OXYGEN PIPE was so WE COULD WIN, and so JO COULD BREATHE. You weren't solving anything, since you REFUSED to tell her about your mental disorder, or that you would cut me off for her. Zoey made fun of my looks and my tan SEVERAL times, so we BOTH took shots. If you think you can COME OVER HERE, and MAKE YOURSELF THE DAMN VICTIM, and ME THE BAD GUY, YOU CAN SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS!"

"If only Episode 4 was an elimination episode, and this would have been done and over with."

"So THAT would have bene your answer, voting me off? Would you have told Zoey about the truth after? NO! Look at all of this," Anne Maria continued ranting, and she showed off her lingerie, groped her breasts and buttocks, "How can ANYONE RESIST ALL OF THIS? People spend THOUSANDS to have a body like mine? People also spend THOUSANDS TO DRESS like me. ESPECIALLY compared to Zoey, who doesn't even do the retro 60s style right."

Mike had enough of this, "ENOUGH ANNE MARIA! THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN LOOKS, WHICH IS ONE OF THE SEVERAL REASONS WHY ZOEY IS BETTER THAN YOU. REVOLTING PERSONALITIES OVERSHADOW GOOD, OR PROCESSED LOOKS EVERY TIME." He ended up gasping from his rant, and started overtly panicking, as he felt something come over him.

Anne Maria felt tears building up, and her adrenaline was running up, as she too was getting way too angry, "HOW DARE YOU? YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT PERSONALITY? WHAT PERSONALITY DO YOU AND ZOEY HAVE? AT LEAST I'M REAL WITH MY SASSINESS, AND I DON'T HIDE! I. AM. NOT. A JEZEBEL! AND DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT MY LOOKS! FUCK YOU TO HELL AND BACK MIKE! IS THAT EVEN YOUR NAME? YOU LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING?"

The rest of the cast decided to get in the middle, with the guys separating Mike, and the girls separating Anne Maria, "Alright, enough is enough. Dakotazoid wants this DONE, NOW!"

"Get me out of here. I'm panicking. GET ME OUT OF HERE! I CAN'T HANDLE THIS! MY SOUL IS NOT REACTING WELL," Mike yelled, as B and Brick halted him up to carry them through, as Staci and Dawn held Anne Maria up with Dakota's help, as they went their separate ways.

Anne Maria was trying to walk herself to her room, but the overwhelming nerves, nd the tears caused her to not see properly, and she stumbled on the floor via tripping, "NO! LET ME GO! I'VE BEEN MADE A FOOL OUT OF! JUST GO PLEASE!"

"You know it's not good to hold onto the past, right?" Staci mentioned, which caused all of the girls to turn around, since it was ironic coming from her, "What? Did I say something wrong?"

Dakotazoid softly patted Anne Maria on the back, not knowing how to deal with the comfort angle, "You... you're pretty. There's many other guys out there who will... love your tan... and makeup... and accent."

Dawn helped Anne Maria up, as they slowly walked towards her room, "Think about it this way. It's better that you found out now instead of later, when you would have otherwise invested so much more time in it, and been even more crushed. You and Mike were not compatible, but you at least got to be on an internationally-syndicated show, and many other guys that suit you will want to meet you."

They opened the door, and helped grab her nightwear, which she soon changed into, "Thanks dolls. It just hurts putting your all, your heart, and soul into someone, and for it ALL to be a lie, and for him to throw it back in my face the way he did. It's HUMILIATING! I've NEVER had my heart broken before. Guys are ALWAYS ALL OVER ME, and I can have whoever I want. This SUCKS."

"You still have a few more weeks here in Playa de Losers. Enjoy the scenery of this luxurious venture. There are still other people who are going to join, and you will get to meet the original cast soon. There are many other guys who are hotter than Mike. Don't let it get you down," the extremely tall daddy's girl attempted to cheered up."

Mike was in his room, and had a paper bag on his face to prevent himself from having a meltdown, while Sam, B, and Brick just observed him. Once his breathing started getting more under control, "I... I can't believe she said all of those things to me. Why couldn't she understand that I didn't mean to hurt anyone?"

"While that may not have been your intention, you DID end up hurting Anne Maria tremendously, and you hurt Zoey for weeks. You can't be mad that you're getting the repercussions of your actions, no matter how well-intentioned they were," Sam retorted back to the thinner man.

Brick gave Sam an "are you serious" look, before approaching Mike, "You did the affirmative thing Mike. Anne Maria may not realize it now, but you did her a favor. Your heart wants what your heart wants, and that's Zoey. She knows the truth, and is fine with it, so you have the right to pursue it. Sometimes, you have to go take the bullets as a soldier, in order to win the war, and that you did. I'm proud of you Mike."

B just gave them 2 thumbs up. He was not the romance type, or much of a social person, so he didn't know how to cheer them up.

"I just really do not like tense situations. While I did destroy my personalities during the challenge, all of the stress, fighting, and anger felt like I was going to relapse, and I just couldn't handle it. I am going to have to avoid her, so I don't get triggered, and I think some space will be good for the both of us to cool off," Mike expressed.

There was some silence for almost a minute, before Sam decided to be nosey, "So, did you end up kissing Zoey once you were eliminated? How did she react to everything?"

A huge blush crept on Mike's face, as the smile stretched across both cheeks, "She was so understanding, and said that she loves oddballs. I can't believe I ever worried about Zoey of all people would freak out about this. Zoey is the girl I always thought she was, and I'm glad that she wants to give this a chance. Everything is out there, and I feel relieved."
