"Well, seeing as how you lack the intelligence to hold a conversation and Belle's too busy with her tongue down Shawn's throat…then yeah, I guess I'm talking to myself." Mimi said, looking back at her magazine.
"Funny, really, chuckle chuckle." Brady smirked then caught a glimpse of the cover of her magazine.
"And what is that your virgin eyes are reading?" He asked, walking over and attempting to rip it from her firm grasp.
"Chloe's diary. Really interesting stuff. 'Dear Diary, I don't know what to do. I thought Brady would be better in bed. He's..somewhat lacking in a certain area. I hate having to fake orgasms.'"
"Really, because Kevin was saying the same thing to me the other day about your.." Brady smiled and put his mouth next to her left ear.
"Oral abilities." He finished, laughing softly. Mimi's eyes narrowed. She turned around about to let him have it when Belle walked in. She saw their faces and knew immediately what was up.
"Ugh, I can't leave you two alone for 5 minutes, I swear. Listen, Shawn and I are going over to the pub to hang out, you two wanna come?"
"Nah, you go on. I'm just gonna head home and lay around. Maybe rent some movies. Have fun, though." Mimi said, putting her hair up in a scrunchie that was around her wrist.
"Alright, if you're sure. Brady, you wanna?" Belle asked her brother. He thought about it, but remembered about the tickets sitting in his room. He needed to find someone to buy them.
"You go on ahead. I might come by later or something. Got things I got to do." Belle shrugged.
"Alright, I'll see you two later, then. Come on, I'll walk you out." Belle said, motioning for Mimi to take her arm. Mimi looped her arm through hers and giggled.
"Bye dork." Mimi said to Brady as she walked out the door.
"Be nice you two." Brady heard Belle say before he could come up with his own comment.
"Bye Brady!" He heard Shawn yell and then the door shut.
"Ha, now he finally talks to me." Brady mumbled as he walked out of the kitchen and up to his bedroom in the penthouse. He grabbed the tickets and walked back downstairs, preparing to call everyone he knew to see if they wanted them.
After a few calls, he was down to Shawn and Belle. No one wanted them, or either they already had plans. He was about to call her cell phone when someone knocked on the door. He got up, phone in hand, and looked through the peephole. It was Mimi. He smiled and opened the door.
"Miss me already? I mean, I know I'm sexy and all, but I've got a girlfriend, so nothing can happen bet-" Brady was cut off by Mimi pushing past him into the penthouse. He shut the door and turned around.
"I forgot my purse. I'll be right back." She said, going upstairs to Belle's room, he presumed.
"Brady, thanks for the offer, but we can't. Shawn's got something special planned for tonight to make up for our fight. Why don't you call someone?" Belle said, after Brady telling her about Chloe leaving and asking her if she wanted the tickets.
"Like who, Belle?" Brady asked sarcastically.
"I dunno, umm…hey, why can't you ask Mimi? She's got nothing to do, and she loves that play." Belle said, talking louder into the phone on account of a group of people coming into the pub.
"Since when does Meems love Les Miserables?"
"Since forever. Brady, if you'd pay a little more attention, you'd realize you two have a lot more in common than you think. If you tried, you could actually be friends." Belle said, looking at Shawn as a weird look came across his face. Brady scoffed.
"That's the funniest thing I've heard all day, Sis. Listen, I'll figure it out, you two go have fun. If you need me, call me. Love you."
"Love you, too, Brady. Bye." Belle said, cutting off her cell phone. She turned toward Shawn.
"Now what was with that weird look you shot me?" Shawn laughed.
"Nothing, just…Brady and Mimi friends?"
"What's wrong with that?" Belle asked.
"Belle, if *you'd* pay more attention, you'd realize there's too much…tension between those two to be friends." He said, giving her a blatant look. A look she didn't get.
"How do you mean?" She asked.
Shawn sighed and chuckled. "Ugh, tension Belle, think about it." He said, picking up his glass of Cherry Coke. She gave him a long glance before finally giving up.
"Just spell it out for the blonde here, Shawn." She said.
"*SEXUAL* tension, Belle, sexual tension." He said, before laughing at her astonished look.
"And how did you come up with that conclusion?"
"Next time they're together, just watch how they act. Their body language. You'll see it, I promise babe." Shawn said, hugging her to him. She started to say something, but he stopped her by giving her a deep kiss. All thoughts of Brady and Mimi left her mind in that moment.
At that same time, Brady was busy thinking about what Belle had said when Mimi came pounding down the stairs, carrying her purse.
"Got it, bye." She said, heading toward the door.
"Wait!" Brady said before he even thought about it. Mimi turned to face him.
"What?" She asked, looking confused. He looked at the tickets laying on the coffee table and then back at Mimi.
"Do you like Les Miserables?"
