Yeah, But We're Only Friends
Dinner with Adam

Authors Notes: "Disintegration is the best album ever!"
-Stan, South Park Well, we all know that Trey grew up a big fan of The Cure, so you know how that line was inspired.
"I am Barbara Streisand do as I say," South Park Ha, that was hilarious, in the roles of 'GOOD AND EVIL,' Robert Smith is good and Barbara Streisand is evil!
Well that was one fun; this is one of my less favorite chapters, see that's a sign of me losing interest. But you need not worry; I'll try my absolute hardest to not lose interest in this chapter. I'm gonna try something new with this story, in the next chapter; I'll be using songs played by some of the local garage bands. And in this chapter I'll try my best to translate one of my favorite songs which happens to be in Spanish.

"Death is more universal than Life. Everyone dies, but not everyone lives"

- I forgot who said that And now, I'll stop blabbing so you guys can move on with this........

~ One Month Later

Matt and Mimi sat one her couch, making out. Matt's hands were at Mimi's waist, while hers were around his neck. Suddenly the phone rang, but the two ignored it. Matt was trailing kisses down Mimi's neck when the machine kicked in,

"Hey, Mimi, it's me, Adam, so are we still on for dinner tonight? If you're busy ......I'll totally understand.... Can you just call me back, you have my number right? Well, later."

Matt stopped his actions and looked into Mimi's eyes. "This is none of my business, but how the hell did he get your number?" Matt asked calmly, still looking into Mimi's eyes. "I gave it to him," Mimi answered; Matt shook his head before he sighed. "Fine, just remember, the media's a fuckin' prick when it comes to celebrities dating," Matt said as he pulled on a long black trench coat. "Where are you going?" Mimi asked. "I miss Kidd, and I'm pretty sure you have to get ready for your date with Adam." Matt said as he walked out the front door.

"I guess this isn't exactly what you're use to, but it's all I can afford." apologized Adam with a weak grin. "I use to eat at places like this at one time too you know." Mimi said. "I know this really isn't relevant or any of my business; but how did you and Matt meet? I mean, I just imagine that it must have been at some big VIP party or something?" Adam asked as he took a sip of water. "Actually, we met in high school; he pushed my history teacher into the swimming pool. Mr. Ramirez didn't show up to class so the assistant principal sent me to go look for him." Mimi explained recalling the memory. "Why'd he push him into the swimming pool?" Adam asked with confusion. "Matt found out that Mr. Ramirez couldn't swim, so he pushed him into the deep end of the pool when he was given a D-, he pushed him into the deep end of the pool. Matt didn't help him out until he agreed to change the grade," responded Mimi as the waiter returned to their table with their drinks, and removing the water. "So, Adam, who were you in high school?" Mimi asked desperate to make conversation. "What do you mean?" Adam asked. "You know, like were you the rebel, the jock, president of the chess club, school mascot, the loner?" Mimi asked giving a few examples. "I was....... Captain of the water polo team for three years, plus the loner kid who only had one friend." Adam said hoping his answer didn't make him look dorky. "Who were you?" Added Adam. "I was the cheerleader who dumped the varsity's star soccer player." said Mimi, Adam only grinned. Suddenly music began to play, it was, "Corazon Partido" by Alejandro Sans. Adam recognized the melody, and looked away from Mimi.

"Is this not a good song or something what?" Mimi asked when she saw his actions. Adam took a deep breath before answering, "It's just that..the picture that he paints with his words, remind me of some......some, this one girl." "An ex-girlfriend?" Mimi asked, Adam only nodded slowly. "What's the song saying?" Mimi asked, Adam looked up and smiled a bit. "It's kind of hard to explain, but, I'll give it a shot.........

I know this, that the heart which does not see,

Is the heart which does not feel,

The heart which denies my love

But I know that you know

That the deepest regions of my soul

Are still following your pain

For believing in you

This was simply an illusion of your beauty

The beauty of living

Why did you mend my heart?

If you were only to break it once again?

Who's gonna plead with me not to abandon her?

Who's going to keep me warm tonight if it is to become cold?

Who's going to heal my heart once again?

Who's gong to deliver the spring this February?

Who's going to bring down the moon so we can play?

Tell me if you leave,

Who's going to be left here to mend this broken heart?

.....It sounds much better when not translated by me/" said Adam, feeling better. "It sounds beautiful," Mimi said felling sorry for Adam; mainly because of his sad tone.

~ One hour later

"Ok let's see if I got this down right. You're a half Mexican half Japanese, who was a loner yet was still captain water polo captain. You're Goth, yet you own two Linkin Park albums?" Mimi asked with confusion. "That's right," Adam said with a grin. "But Matt told me that Goth's weren't into mainstream nu metal?" Mimi asked. "Well Linkin Park is everyone's guilty pleasure...except mine, 'cause I don't fell guilty about listening to them." Adam said proudly. "Ok, but I'm pretty sure that Robert Smith doesn't have any of their albums." Mimi commented. Robert who?" Adam asked, Mimi just looked at him in amazement. "Uh, no one...... hey do you wanna get out this place?" she asked.

"Sure just let me pay." said Adam as he walked towards the counter. "So, I see Alejandro didn't fail." said the cashier. "Make up an imaginary girlfriend, play the right song, say the right words, and you've got sympathy." said Adam as he glanced towards Mimi who was looking out the window. "Do you think you'll get any off her?" asked the cashier. "Carlos, si una dama... Is still talking about her ex- novio what does that tell you?" Adam asked the cashier. "Que se yo?" Carlos asked. "Exactly, what do you?" Adam said walking away.

Authors Notes: Well I found this chapter boring, but fear not, I haven't lost interest. Have any of you guys read, The Tragedy of Othello, The Moor of Venice? Kick ass book, everyone of the essential characters die at the end, all except Cassio and Iago. Anyway, did you guys check MTV's Hard Rock Live on Wednesday? AFI, was the best, the delivered a great show. I could do without the commercial interruption, but we can't all get what we want. Just like I can't get Billy, (we're married, he just doesn't know it yet) Anyway, you guys can expect the next chapter, some time within the next two weeks. But don't expect it anytime soon. Well, ran out of things to say, but if you wanna see a picture of Avril "The Poser" Lavigne, just send an email to me.
