Venus sat in the room she shared with Jen, staring at the wall. She
had been living with Jen, Danielle, and Laura for almost 2 months and a lot
of things had happened. After only 2 months of living together, Heather
and Brian decided that they wanted to get married, but they also decided
that it would be best if they didn't live together before then. Heather
moved in with Jessica, who had been looking for someone to share her
apartment with. Heather and Brian set their wedding date for the middle of
May, which gives them 6 months to plan a huge wedding.
Venus and Raph had barely spoken in the last few months. Instead, Raph
began to go out with another girl, and Venus was being courted by someone
else, who wouldn't reveal their identity.
The rest of the guys were doing alright. Mikey finally hooked up
with Jen, and Venus found herself spending a lot of time alone in the room
they shared. Donny spent most of his time in the labs at the college,
determined to be the only straight A student in the whole school. Leo
spent most of his time in the dojo he had joined, and his peers were
awestruck at his awesome abilities.
The other girls basically just studied and went to school. Once a month,
they all went out to a club to party, but more often that not, a few of
them just hung out together for awhile, talking about school and their
friends.
Heather walked quickly towards her old apartment to meet up with Danielle
for dinner. She was almost there, and was glad. It was one of those cold
November nights that promised snow, and lots of it. Reaching the door, she
stuck her key in the appropriate door and opened it. The first person she
saw was Venus, who looked surprised to see her. "Hey Venus, what's up?"
Heather asked, then noticed the flowers on the table. "Who are those
from?" "My stalker again, I guess." Venus said, laughing. "You still
don't know who it is?" Heather asked. "No, and I don't want to know
either." Venus replied, turning away. "Why not, Venus, then at least
they wouldn't be stalking you anymore." Well, I just figured you've got to
be a jerk if you do nothing but stalk a woman for almost 2 months." Venus
told her, and Heather laughed, then nodded. "Alright Venus, you win. Is
Danielle here? We are going out tonight." "I haven't seen her for awhile,
Heather." Venus replied.
Danielle walked into the hallway, after listening to the conversation.
"I'm right here V, I was just watching 'Con Air' on USA." "Oh" Venus and
Heather said together, then rolled their eyes. "Danielle, haven't you seen
that movie about 20 times already?" Heather asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Sure I have, but I really like it so I watch it as much as I can."
Danielle replied, staring back at the two girls. They all laughed, and
Danielle turned to Heather. "You ready to go yet Heather?" "I am,
Danielle, see you later V." With that, the two girls left the apartment,
leaving Venus by herself. Venus sighed and walked into the living room,
deciding to watch a little T.V. She turned it on, then sat back on
relaxed. 20 minutes later, she awoke to the sound of the telephone
ringing. She answered the phone, and listened. "Venus come quick, I'm at
the Hospital with Brian. Something's wrong with Heather. She collapsed at
dinner." "I'll be right there Danielle." Venus said, then hung up the
phone and hurried out the door.
