Chapter 5: Prepare To Surrender

Mary sat on the Promenade. She was at Pete's Pizza enjoying a slice of sausage pizza and a Coke...well; she was trying to. But it was pretty hard to enjoy things when life sucked.
Ok, so maybe Mary's life didn't suck as bad as a lot of other people's lives. But her family, besides Ruthie, Lucy, Matt, Simon, Happy, and the twins, were all still mad at her for coming home and "springing" this whole "divorce thing" on them. Oh yeah, and not to mention, her whole marriage in the first place was a total flop.

And this whole thing with Wilson. When she ran into Wilson yesterday, she thought she was getting the second chance with him she'd been wishing for. But, of course, he had a girlfriend. Just Mary's luck. Just Mary's damn luck!

Grrr, Mary thought to herself while sipping on her Coke, that stupid Emily McKay!

Emily McKay. What a witch. A truly evil little boyfriend-stealing witch. How Mary hated her although she had just met her the day before. Mary would be surprised if there was anyone more loud, rude, ditzy, annoying, and obnoxious on the face of this earth than Emily McKay...

"Like, oh my God, Mary!" Mary saw Emily coming towards her. Her face had a huge smile on it as she annoyingly snapped on her gum.

God, Mary thought, alone with her, it's a nightmare come true!

Emily sat down at the table where Mary was sitting at. "Mary, hi!"

"Um...hi." Mary replied, hoping people wouldn't think this girl knew her personally.

"So..." Emily flipped her hair around. "Like, Mare, I need to talk to you!"

"Ok..." Mary's voice trailed off.

"Well, like, I'd better tell you this now." Emily leaned her head closer to Mary's ear and whispered. "Ok, listen here bitch, you'd better stay away from Wilson! Don't think I'm stupid, I saw how you were looking at him yesterday! I saw you two almost kiss! So, if you don't want trouble, bitch, back off, cuz Wilson's mine! Got it!"

The perkiness returned to Emily's voice. "Ok, like, bye now hunny!"

Emily walked off. Mary felt a bit shaken up. Had Wilson's overly perky girlfriend just threatened her? Yes, she had indeed. Well, Mary wasn't going to let her get away with it. She was going to pay...

Emily McKay, Mary thought with a smile, prepare to surrender and eat your own words!

-Oh, you drive me crazy

Oh, you just bring me down

Look out your window

My sunshine's all around

And all you have to do is just surrender, just surrender-

End Of Chapter 5

A/N: Sorry for the long wait. The school year doesn't help me with updating. I managed to write this chapter during school today. Sorry it's so short, but it's all I can do at the moment. Please review and tell me if you like it.
