Mimi had some hard decisions to make and she didn't feel like making them that instant so she went up to her room and got ready for bed.
As she was getting ready for bed she thought about what had just happened. "What am I going to do!" she thought to herself as she slowly drifted off to sleep.

Mimi awoke the next morning and was greatful that they had an inservice at school today, it would give her time to thinks things over.
She needed to talk to someone, but who would that be? She already talked to Belle about Philip and how much she liked him, could she tell Belle about Kevin? Mimi decided not to. She would find someone else to talk to. Who would that person be? Mimi had no idea. She just had to think.

For the next couple of hours Mimi just sat up in her room listening to her favorite Backstreet Boys cd and thinked. Then she thought of someone that she could talk to about her troubles, Susan.
She knew that Susan wouldn't judge her and becides Susan had a thing for Shawn.
Mimi would never say anything about that to Belle or Belle would rip Susans eyes out.

Mimi went over to the phone and dialed Susans number.
"Hello, is Susan there? It is Mimi Lockhart and I would like to speak to her."
"Hello, And please hold on I will get Susan for you." The voice on the other end replied.
"Thank you very much." Mimi said.

"Hello?" Susan said.
"Hey Susan, it's Mimi and I really need to talk to you, do you think that you could come over to my house and we could talk?"
"Sure Mimi, I will be right over."
"Thanks a lot Susan, I am glad that you are one of my good friends." Mimi replied
"Your welcome Mimi. I will be right over."
"Okay, See you soon."
"Bye."
"Bye."


Mimi hung up the phone and was glad that she could count on Susan to be there for her.

Meanwhile at Susan's House......

"Man, I wonder what that was all about?" Susan thought to herself as she said goodbye to her mom and headed out the door.

Back at Mimi's House..........


Mimi was sittin in her room reading when she heard the doorbell ring. "That must be Susan." Mimi thought to herself. "I might as well just stay here cause I know that my mom will get it." Mimi said to herself but then she remembered that Her parents had taken Conner to their grandma's and weren't home.
Mimi went to go and answer the door.


Mimi went to the door and opened it.
"Hey Mimi." Susan remarked
"Hey Susan, thanks for coming. I really need some one to talk to and I knew that you would be here for me."
"Not a problem Mimi, I like it when we talk. What was so important that you had to talk to me about and not Belle?"
"Well, Mimi started. "I could only talk to you about it because the people that I have to tell you about well, I knew that Belle would go straight to them and tell them everything."
"Okay...." Susan replied
"So would you like to go up to my room and we could talk there?" Mimi asked
"Sure, sounds fine to me. I really want to find out what you are going to tell me." Susan replied
"Okay." Mimi said leading Susan upstairs.

Upstairs......


"Well this is my room, sorry for the mess." Mimi said sitting on her bed and waiting for Susan to do the same.

"Oh it is alright, my room at home is just as messy." Susan replied
Then Mimi started to tell Susan about what had happened between Her & Philip and Her & Kevin.

"As you can see I have a really big delemia on my hands and I was wondering if you could help me out." Mimi said giggling a little at the look on Susan's face.
"Well, I could try and help. Here it goes...."
"I think that you should go on with Philip and just not because he is the hottest guy at Salem High, but because you two have known each other for longer than I can remember and you seem to have a lot in common."
Mimi thought about what Susan had just said.

"Thank you Susan, I think I am going to take your advice but I just don't know how to let Kevin down." Mimi replied
"Well Mimi, you two are friends and I am sure you two still will be when you tell him how you really feel."
"Thank you Susan, I really appricate that you took time to come over here and talk to me. I just want you to promise me on thing."
"What would that be?" Susan asked
"Well I just want you to keep this little talk between the two of us ok?"
"Ok, I will do that, I wasn't going to tell anyone anyway. I know this is is really inportant to you, I promise that I won't tell anyone."
"Thank you Susan, I knew that I could count on you." Mimi replied.
"I will talk to you tomorrow ok?"
"Ok, sounds good to me." Susan replied

Mimi walked Susan to the door and they said their goodbyes.

After Susan left Mimi thought about how she would let Kevin down...........
