A/N: omg I haven't updated in like...a long time. I couldn't log in for like
2 days! The ff.net e-mails are not working right now (again, *growl*) so I
was getting sad that I had no reviews . . . or maybe I really don't have
any! I think I might cry . . . so review! PLEEESE!
**************************************************************************
It had been hours since Wilson had gotten home. Mary and Tristan were still in the attic. Simon and Wilson stood at the bottom of the stairs wondering when they could go up.
"So how serious was their relationship exactly?" Tristan asked shaking a toy at Angie.
"I don't know," Mary said, "I wasn't living here, you'd have to ask Lucy"
Tristan hadn't been crying for a while, her and Mary were just talking, this was the first time the conversation had turned back to Simon. Mary was expecting the turn however; there was no way she could have shut up if it was her in the situation.
"I do know that she paid him to make out with her," Mary said, "that's how they got together"
Tristan groaned, "are you kidding me?" she covered her face with her hands and threw herself on the bed, "what does he see in her? Her high little voice, gosh its so annoying!"
Mary half-smiled, Tristan was hurting so bad. It was extremely obvious, but trashing Cecilia somehow made it better.
"You know he has a picture of her in his dorm" Tristan said so quietly it was almost a whisper. Mary looked over at her; there were tears in her eyes. "She was gorgeous, you know before . . . oh who am I kidding, she still is."
Mary sat next to Tristan on the bed, "Don't even talk like that. There is no way that she could even compare to you. You are so perfect for Simon, and maybe that scares him"
"Yeah, right" Tristan said getting off of the bed, "Well, bye Mary, thanks for everything"
"Uh yeah," she said confused, "no problem"
And with that she was gone . . .
***********************************
Kevin came in the back door, "Roxanne and some other guys are out looking for Simon's car, but still no luck"
"Where could he have gone?" Annie asked leaning on Eric.
Right after Tristan left the attic she said two words to Simon, and then she left.
"It's over"
Simon appeared to be ok, then he volunteered to go take out the trash, but he didn't come back. He'd been missing for 3 hours, and no one could find Tristan either. Lucy and Mary were checking all around town, and Kevin had some of his buddies from the station on the lookout.
Mary and Lucy came in the front door, "still no sign of either of them" Mary reported.
"We asked Tristan's parents and they said she wasn't at their hotel, or at least they hadn't seen her." Lucy told them.
Then there was a light tap on the back door. It slowly opened and Cecilia entered. It was like a shadow came over the room, despite her huge smile. No one was smiling back, they all knew what was going on, but they didn't know anyone else knew.
"Hi everyone" she said brightly, "is Simon around?"
"No" they all grumbled.
"Where is he?" Cecilia asked.
"He's gone!" Lucy shouted, "He's been gone for hours. Tristan called the wedding off and I think we all know why" Cecilia looked puzzled, "because you two were sneaking around!" Lucy finished.
Cecilia looked confused and shocked, and then it all clicked.
"Oh my God" was all she said and then she flew back out the door.
Kevin crossed the kitchen to calm down Lucy, and Annie started crying. Wilson came down the stairs, but when he spotted Mary he flew back up them.
**************************************
Simon heard a tap on his car window. He turned to see Cecilia standing there. He pulled the lock up and opened the passenger door.
"You're family is pretty dumb not to check in here," she said
"Mom and Lucy have been through here like 4 times, but they didn't even notice" he laughed quietly.
"So you were too chicken to even leave the garage," she said, "you were never very good at running away from things"
"I don't want to run," he said softly, "I just want her back"
"Where is she?" Cecilia asked looking straight ahead.
"I have no idea," he said leaning his head against the window, "don't you think I would go after her?"
"I'm not so sure," Cecilia said, "Simon, why didn't you tell her?" she asked shaking her head.
"You told me not to tell" he said raising his voice, "what was I supposed to do?"
"It's too late for 'supposed to' you have to go tell her"
Simon sat, not moving, "I can't"
"Then I will, I should have in the first place," Cecilia said getting out of the car and slamming the door.
