1ch.3 elevator
disclaimer: I own nothing, meg owns all
recap: What the hell is going on?
Mia POV:
I had been sleeping rather comfortably against Michael's chest, with his arm laying across my stomach, but when Lilly came in and started yelling I jumped up off the bed faster than superman (but once I had gotten up I kinda wished I hadn't jumped up away from Michael, because Michael's room was cold and Michael was pretty warm)
"What is going on?" Lilly asked again. Good thing Drs. Moscovitz had a patient to treat early this morning, or they would have heard Lilly yelling and come in also. That would have been extremely embarrassing!
"I can explain," I said quickly, "lets go to your room and I'll tell you everything."
"No!" Lilly ordered, "tell me now."
"I have to pack up, I told my mom that I'd be home by one, and it's already 12:25. Also I have to walk home because I told Lars that someone would walk me home because he had something to do for my dad today.
"I'll walk you home." Michael offered. He is so sweet! He wasn't lying down anymore. In fact he was standing right next to me, and fortunately for me he still wasn't wearing a shirt. If Lilly weren't in the room I would have pushed Michael right back on the bed and kissed him till we were both gasping for breath. And it would be okay because he loves me! Michael Moscovitz, totally hot senior, headed for Columbia early decision loves me, Mia Thermopolis, lowly freshman, freakily tall princess with too big feet and no breasts to speak of. I'm still in shock! He loves me!
"If you are going to tell me then lets go already!" Lilly said loudly. I gave Michael a quick hug and as I leaned up to give him a kiss on the cheek, he whispered softly in my ear, "I love you, don't let Lilly make forget that." I squeezed Michael a little tighter as I smiled widely, and then I left the room with Lilly.
Lilly POV:
Ew! Ew! Ew! My brother and my best friend, how disgusting is that?!? I woke up this morning to find Mia gone. This wasn't that unusual because Mia usually wakes up before me and goes to my room, but when I went to check in there she was no where to be found. She also wasn't in the kitchen, livingroom, diningroom, bathroom , or my parent's room. That just left Michael's room. Normally it would not be that weird to find Mia in there because Michael helps her in algebra all the time. Also earlier in the year Mia and I had a minuscule, tiny disagreement, and Michael stood up for her and stayed friends with her even though we were fighting, and they've become pretty close since then. So it wouldn't be that strange to find Mia in there, but I wasn't expecting to find Mia sleeping on Michael's bare chest, with his arm lying right below her boobs! As I said before EW! When I asked them what was going on, Mia jumped off of Michael really fast with a guilty look on her face and she quickly said, "I can explain." Like hell she is going to explain! I can't believe Mia would stoop to cheating on her boyfriend just because a senior is willing to make out with her. Poor, poor Kenny! All he ever did was love a two-timing cheater.
Mia then told me to come to my room so she could pack while explaining because she needed to be home soon, and of course Michael immediately offers to walk her. Probably so he can get her in the elevator again. I'm guessing that's where all this began because the two of them have been acting weird since then. Right then mia turned and while she gave Michael a hug and a peck on the cheek he whispered something in her ear that made Mia nauseatingly happy. Mia then took my hand and led me out of the room.
Mia POV:
"When did this whole thing start?" Lilly asked, "I'm hoping you haven't been cheating on Kenny for too long." Shit Kenny. What am I going to do about Kenny? I mean obviously I have to break up with him but do I tell him about Michael? I don't think I should tell him about Michael because what he doesn't know can't hurt him. Right? Okay, so that isn't the most ethical thing to do and it is most probably not the right thing to do, but I really, really, really don't want Kenny to know I cheated on him!
"Hello, are you going to answer me?"
"Of course this hasn't been going on a long time." I told her, "It started yesterday in the elevator." When I said that Lilly got this 'I knew it' look on her face. "Look Lilly," I continued, "I've liked your brother for a while, and yesterday I kind of lost control in the elevator and I kissed him. I was a little scared that Michael would hate me after that but it turns out that he was in love with me all this time and I never knew it. But what you saw in there is not what it looked like." I just know Lilly is assuming the worst- like Michael and I slept together or answer.
"So what you are saying is that you slept walked to Michael's room, went to his bed, lay down -all while you were asleep- put his arm on your chest, and stayed there the rest of the night?" Lilly said her eyebrows raised.
"No that's not what happened, Lilly you know that."
"So you did sleep with my brother!" Lilly accused. I knew she had been thinking something along those lines.
"No of course I didn't" I said. "Just because I found love at 14 doesn't mean I want to lose my virginity in the 9th grade. We just kissed a little" -ok a lot but Lilly doesn't need to know that- "talked and slept, until you woke us up anyway."
"Fine so you didn't sleep with Michael, but you still cheated on Kenny! I cant believe you did that, you cheated on your boyfriend. I thought you liked Kenny." Me like Kenny! I started to laugh a little when I heard that.
"Lilly, I never liked Kenny. I mean I did as a friend and all. Kenny is a nice guy and all someone to help me in bio, or to talk to on-line with sometimes- but as someone to swap spit with, not so much. I only went out with him because I didn't know how to tell him that I was in love with your brother."
"It doesn't matter that you cheated because you are in love with Michael. You still cheated on your boyfriend, end of story." Lilly shot back at me, kind of yelling that last part. "Kenny deserves better than that! If you plan on breaking up with him you better also be planning on telling him that you are breaking up with him because you spent the night making out with his fellow computer club pal."
"No I'm not doing that Lilly. I don't want to tell him, besides what he doesn't know cant hurt him!" plus I really, really, really don't want Kenny to know I cheated on him.
"If you break up with Kenny, and you don't tell the reason that you are breaking up with him I will tell him and I tell you now I'm not going to sugar-coat it for him and it definitely wont be pretty." BITCH! I cant believe Lilly doing this to me. I mean it is my life and she is butting in and taking over. I should have told her to back out of my life and that I would deal with this my way because it is my problem, but I guess Lilly is right about one thing - I am completely not assertive. So being me all I did was ignore her.
"What do you see him anyhow? My brother I mean?" Lilly asked quietly.
"I don't know" I replied "your brother is sweet, to me anyway, and he is funny, and he understands me, and he helps me with algebra, and I can talk to him for hours or just sit in silence without it ever getting awkward. Other boys like Kenny or even hot guys like Josh Richter I am almost always uncomfortable around."
"I don't know what Michael told you last night," Lilly started telling me, " but I do know that whatever he said you are very naive to believe that he actually meant any of it. Michael isn't the nicest guy when it comes to girls. He has a lot of girl friends, most of which didn't last longer than a 2nd date."
Michael's POV:
"I don't know what Michael told you last night, but I do know that whatever he said you are very naive to believe that he actually meant any of it. Michael isn't the nicest guy when it comes to girls. He has a lot of girl friends, most of which didn't last longer than a 2nd date."
I had just gotten out of the shower- where I had been trying to convince myself that none of this was a dream. That Mia really did love me , and that I did make out with her most of the night, and that she never liked Kenny.- when I heard Lilly say this. Oh God. I really need to get mia out of there before Lilly tells Mia something extremely embarrassing. Its true that I've had a lot of girlfriends and that none of them lasted all that long but that is all because of Mia. The reason there had been so many is because I was trying to get over Mia except that plan had backfired because none of the girls could compare to Mia. They were never as funny, or as nice, or as sweet, or lets face it as incredibly hot as Mia is.
I looked at my watch. It was 12:38. I went to Lilly's room, knocked on the door, and stuck my head in.
"Mia we have to go now if you want to get home by 1:00, we..."
I trailed off when I got a good look at Mia. She looked gorgeous in the pair of low rider blue jeans and a tight-fitting orange zip-up sweatshirt with a black 'save the whales' shirt underneath that she had changed into. But then again Mia looks amazing no matter what she is wearing.
As we left the apartment Lilly gave mia an evil look but mia seemed determined to ignore it so I didn't comment on it. I did however ask her how her conversation with Lilly went, when we got out the door.
"Let me put it this way," she replied, "between memorizing all the members of Genovia's parliament, all their families, and all of their ages, or doing that again, I would take the memorizing any day.
"What did Lilly try to convince you I'm a terrible person?" I said back to her.
"Something like that" Mia said, as we got into the elevator.
"Well don't let her fool you, I'm a great guy!"
"Just keep telling yourself that" I laughed when mia said that. This why I love her so much. When I'm with mia she makes me feel so great.
The elevator started going and I moved towards Mia to kiss her. I had to! Just seeing her standing extremely hot and all, in the elevator brought memories of the last time we were in this elevator together tumbling back making me want to get Mia pressed up against the elevator wall again. Mia must have been thinking along the same lines because she leaned up and kissed me the same way she had yesterday. Unfortunately the elevator made it to its destination a lot faster today not giving us that much time to make out. Damn!
Mia POV:
As we walked outside Michael tugged at my bag and then he took it from me.
"You don't have to do that, I could carry my bag." I told him.
"I know you can carry the bag but I want to carry it for you." Michael said, then he put his arm around my shoulder and we just walked in a comfortable silence till we got to my loft.
Mia POV:
When we got to my apartment I invited Michael in but when we got inside mom and Mr.G weren't there. On the kitchen table was a note saying-
went to obstetrician, will be back around 2:30
- "you want to stay awhile, keep me company?" I asked Michael pretty sure I knew the answer to that question would be yes.
"Yea sure," he said, "what do you want to do?" Michael asked as he came towards me, backing me up into the refrigerator. He tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear, and leaned in to kiss me. I'm really starting to like the whole hot guy kissing me all the time thing. Just as Michael deepened the kiss even further the phone rang.
"Ignore it," Michael groaned as he nuzzled my neck. I did ignore it but then the answering machine went off, and Kenny's voice filled the air.
Mia, Mia, are you there? Its Kenny. I called Lilly and she said you had left there a while ago. Well I guess you didn't get back, or you went out again. So call me back. In case you forgot the number its 555-6784. If you don't call back I'll try to call you later. Its Kenny by the way, I cant remember if I said that before or not. Bye, I love you.
Michael POV:
Damn him! Kenny has to call at the worst time ever! Right when I'm making out with his girlfriend! Well at least I'm the one his girlfriend wants to make out with. After what felt like a lifetime of trying to figure out what a girl like Mia saw in a dumbass like Kenny it felt great to know she never liked him to begin with.
Anyway after Kenny called she pushed me away from her and said in a weird voice, "come lets go watch a movie." and then she dragged me into the livingroom and we sat down on the couch.
"Mia what's wrong?" I asked her.
"Its Kenny," She said, "I know last night I said I didn't really care about him but," Mia paused. Shit, maybe mia really does like Kenny and she was lying or something. "I do care about his feelings even though I don't like him that way." Mia finished. I let out a sigh of relief that Mia didn't like Kenny.
"Mia, so you will break up with him and he will find a girl that can really like him." I said, thinking that I didn't care what Kenny did as long as it wasn't with Mia.
"So what movie should we watch," I said to change the subject, "or do you want to do a little more of what we were doing in the kitchen- you seemed to like that." Mia laughed and hit me a couch pillow. " I think I'll go with the movie," she replied. Damn!
Mia POV:
Michael was being so sweet, and adorable the way he tried to get the Kenny situation off my mind. He even let me choose the movie and didn't complain too much when I chose Pretty in Pink, but still all I could think of was how innocent Kenny's voice sounded on the answering machine Well that was all I could think about till Michael put his arm around me and started kissing me so sweetly, then all thoughts of Kenny went flying out the door.
A while later, Michael was on top of me and we were making out again, except this time it was on my couch not his bed, and the movie was long forgotten.
Then Michael tore his lips from mine and said "come to the Non-denominational winter dance with me" how could I say refuse such an offer? I quickly kissed Michael on the lips and said "Yes!" without another thought.
Life was perfect. I made out with Michael on my livingroom couch till about 2:15 when my mom called to say she would be home soon. I didn't even feel too guilty for making out with Michael, and saying yes to going to the dance with him, Michael and I were going to live happily ever after since I was about to break up with Kenny.
Or so I thought....
