HI, It's Lexi, I haven't had much time to update so thanks for sticking with me, I've had a lot of revision to do for tests (EEK!) so forgive me for breaking my p.d. (personal deadline) Read on...

Maureen paced Mimi's bedroom floor, pouting and being Maureeny (i.e. very moody). Mimi was hoovering and pretending she could hear her.

"-And I have needs! I need Attention! I have a kid in me!" she shouted suddenly.

Mimi jumped at her sudden exclaimation,

"OH-uh yeah! you need lots of attention honey, yeah lots," she said switching off the hoover so she could talk.

Maureen smiled and hugged Mimi, she politely returned the hug, even if a little scared,

"At least you understand me Mimi," Maureen said politely, "the others don't realise how hard it was for me to dump JoAnne-"

"It's okay," said Mimi in a reasuring voice, "It's okay, you did the right thing, you'll find another girl,"

Maureen smiled at her, cheered up a ton, "Okay Meem's, hey wanna come to the lesbian bar up on Avenue C?"

Mimi grimaced but quickly smiled so that Maureen wouldn't be upset,

"sure," she said, "sounds like fun,"

Meanwhile in hospital, Mark was once again checking up on Magenta, he walked into the ward and she was up in bed, playing cards,

"Hey," Mark shouted over, she looked up,

"Marky!" she squealed and held out her arms, Mark ran over and hugged her tightly.

"Hey, I'm sorry I haven't visited in a while,"

"It's okay Marky," she said and they kissed like it was going out of fashion but then Maganta broke free,

"Wait Mark I have to tell you something," she said her voice stern.

"What's wrong honey?"

"Well..Mark I mean't to tell you this but...well, it's just that, well, I didn't know how you-"

Mark looked at her confused.

"What I mean is- they told me I won't make it,"
"WHAT!" mark exclaimed, "Why the hell not?"

Magenta cringed, "Because I-I have aids,"

Mark went pale,

"And when did you find this out?"

"The other day, oh I'm so sorry Mark,"

"It's okay," he hugged her again, she snuggled into his warmth.

At the lesbian bar, Maureen and Mimi were sitting at one of the tables Maureen with a vodka and coke, Mimi with a orange juice because she didnt want to get drunk in a lesbian bar.

"Excuse me one second Maureen," said Mimi walking casually to the toilets.

In the toilets there was a lesbian couple making out as Mimi enter they looked at her and continued to touch each other, Mimi rolled her eyes and went over to the sink to wash her face, it was too stuffy and hot in the main room.

Once she'd prettied herself up she left the toilets, the lesbians now in one of the stalls, Mimi chose not to think about what they were doing.

As she went back to the table, she found Maureen snogging another girl.

"Christ," thought Mimi, "Everyone's at it."

As she sat down the two looked up and the girl blushed,

"Oops," she squealed, "is she yours, I didn't-I-"

Mimi laughed,
"Nope, She is not "mine", your very well to take her,"

"Hi," said the girl, reaching over her hand, "I'm Crystal,"

"Mimi," Mimi replied, taking her hand and shaking it firmly.

"It's a pleasure," said Crystal, "I actually got to go now though," she made thhe "call me" sign at Maureen and walked off.

"I take it, that you got her number,"

"Yup,"

"Good," said Mimi, "then let's go I can't stand it here," Mimi grabbed Maureen pulled her to her feet and dragged her out of the place before Maureen's feet even touched the floor.

A week later, Magenta was in a worser state, Mark had been busy filming for his newe work and hadn't been to see her, and Roger and Mimi visited her while he was busy.

Magenta was frail and ill-looking she didn't have her beautiful shine in her eyes, the colour had drained from her cheeks and she reminded everyone creepily of Angel and her last moments.

But Maureen and Crystal were now officially going out together and to annoy everyone (Not intentionally but it was working) She brought Crystal around almost everyday to have a laugh and joke with her friends. One saturday in particular...

Mimi rushed to the door, it was easier than pretending they weren't in, which would be hard as Roger was play the guitar, but sadly not in tune, well not any tune Mimi knew.

"Surprize!" shouted Maureen and bursting in (the door had been opened though!), but Crystal waited to be invited in and politely thanked Mimi when she was.

"Take a seat," Mimi offered, Crystal sat down, it had been her sixth visit to their house but she remained polite.

"Would you like a cuppa' Crystal?"

"No thank's Mimi, I don't beleive in caffeine,"

Silence..

"Oh, okay, Maureen would you-" Maureen was already through the kitchen making herself a cup of coffee.

"Be careful Maureen, we just got a new coffee machine,"

Crystal laughed,

"Hey Mimi, question,"

"yeah?"

"What is you second name, you seem familiar!"

"Oh It's Marquez,"

Crystal jumped to her feet and squealed,

"What's up?" asked Mimi.

"I do know you! but not directly, you knew my brother! I'm Crystal Schunard!"

Mimi nearly passed out...
