…That's All We Are
"I can't believe it—all these years I thought I was the perfect child; but no! I'm the product of a night to the movies gone horribly wrong!" She sobbed uncontrollably. He looked down at her; to say he looked confused would've been an understatement.
"I'm sure that night wasn't so horrible…maybe three or four days later would've been the night they discovered. So actually you're the product of an insanely fun night at the movies followed up by sex." He attempted to console her.
"For the love of god, just shut up…Do you think I'm the reason they got married?" She asked in between sobs, clinging onto his chest.
"Of course not," he replied as he put his arm around her.
"Don't lie to me! You're only telling me what I want to hear," she yelled at him.
"Geez, sorry Mimi—Your parents only got married because you just happened to be consummated one night. No eternal love what so ever, was ever involved in their matrimony. In fact, I think you might even be the product of break-up sex.—"
"I said, don't lie to me, I never said for you to tell me the truth!" Her tears seemed to have no end.
"Is it really that big of a deal?"
"To me it is"
"Mimi, I hate to break it to you…but my shirt isn't a tissue—and to be frank with you I think you're blowing this way out of proportion"
"Easy for you to say, you're use to the idea of not being planned,"
"Um, sure."
"Anyone home?" A familiar voice asked.
"Tai!" Mimi cried as she threw herself onto him
"Why's she crying? Did you tell her about Adam?" Tai questioned as he pried himself from her grip.
"Adam?" she questioned. She turned to face Matt just in time to see him threatening their friend. "Matt, what's wrong with Adam?" she stopped crying long enough to inquire.
He sighed, glanced at Tai once again and took a seat beside her. "What impeccable timing you have," he muttered.
"What else could she possibly be crying about?"
"Shut-up, tell me about Adam."
"Does it look as though she knows about Adam?"
"No…not really I just assumed"
"Well don't assume next time."
"You don't have to be so mean about it"
"That seems to be the only way you pay attention."
"Shut-up! Both of you!" Mimi shouted at the top of her lungs. She glared at both of them as she took them both by their arms. She walked them over to a couch and sat them down. "What about Adam?" she asked as she gnashed her teeth together
"Forget about Adam—Hey Tai, Mimi has this great story!"
"Really, what's it about?" Tai questioned as he looked up at her.
"Yeah, it's really great."
"What's it about?"
"Will you two just tell me?"
"…So—which would be less…oh I don't know…sad for you? A) Adam died a slow horrible death at the hands of Oprah. B) Adam asked Matt out on a date, C) Adam's cheating on you. Or our final option D) Why was Tai born such a sexy piece of man-meat?" Tai questioned.
"…What?"
"Shut-up…Mimi 'm going to tell you thing," Matt began. "But you have to promise me that you aren't going to throw anything at us…ok?" Matt proposed as he scooted closer to her.
"…I promise," she reluctantly accepted his offer.
"Adam—Where to start? First of all he's a grade 'A' douche bag, ok. Secondly he looks a bit fruity, even you have to admit too that. There's a line between metro and gay, and he's stepping on it…And the guy, well… he doesn't deserve you." Matt explained to her.
"That doesn't answer the question,"
"You're absolutely correct, it doesn't, but do you really want to know, that's a better question."
"Yes, so just tell me,"
"Are you sure you can't wait until tomorrow, because I'm almost certain you'll take it in better in the morning."
"Tell me!"
"…Fine—Do you recall why we first broke up?"
She gave him a stern look before replying, "Because you convinced a random woman to reach an oral agreement with you,"
"…Well…I'm tired, why don't I just finish the story tomorrow?" Matt stood up and stretched.
"Now," her tone was enough to get him to sit down beside her.
"…Are you sure you aren't tired? Because I know you'll handle the info a hundred times better after some rest."
"Tai, you tell me"
"Don't say anything."
"Shut-up Matt, this isn't even about you!"
"Mimi, I promise to tell you in the morning once you get some rest, please…"
"Fine," she stood and marched out of the room.
"Where are you going? My bedroom is this way"
"Who said I was looking for your room?"
"Mimi, don't be like that," he said going after her.
"What do you know about Adam that I don't?" she asked furiously as she jabbed his chest with a slender finger.
"Would you calm down, you're going to give Tai nightmares" he requested as she backed him into a wall.
"I don't want to hear anymore of your jokes, which by the way aren't even that funny—now tell me!"
"I'll tell you but you have to promise not to get mad at either of us…or any of my stuff."
"Didn't she wreck your car last time you cheated on her?"
"Not now Taichi," they both shouted.
"…Ok, I'm going to start now…While at the mall one day, the guys and I saw your little Latin lover, Adam—he didn't see us though. Well he was kind of talking to this girl, with that accent he always puts on for girls. He was well kind of cheating on you—I especially thought so when he proceeded to give her CPR lessons without having to have had her choke…"
She had fallen silent too long, and he was beginning to think that she'd blown a gasket. "Are you ok?" Matt asked taking a step towards her.
"I've been known to break promises before, so don't come any closer."
"Do you really want to destroy something that bad?"
"You have no idea…"
"Mimi, you've only known the guy for about a month now, it's not like you two were betrothed or anything…Not to mention you're kind of cheating on him too."
"It's not that, I just don't like the thought of anyone picking anybody over me."
"…Hey, I saw his car parked outside the theater" Tai spoke up
"I've got a baseball bat," Matt offered with a suggestive tone.
"What are you guys trying to say?"
"Well…isn't this type of behavior expected of models?"
"…You guys are great." She said hugging them both.
"Well what are friends for?" Matt muttered.
"Too bad you two aren't exactly friends," Tai laughed.
"Shut-up, we're only friends, that's all we are," Mat said as he handed Mimi a baseball bat.
Author's Notes: Finally, after nearly three years it's finally over. I lost interest in this story long ago, so which is why the ending was kind of rushed and kind of left out in the open.
So please review, and tell me how much you hate it.
