Maureen's jaw dropped slightly as she stared at Joanne in the doorway. 'Hey Mo," Joanne greeted her. "Oh… hi." Maureen said, a bit flustered. "How'd you find me?" she asked, trying not to sound rude. Joanne shrugged. "I don't know. I checked the old apartment, but you weren't there, so I cam here." She explained. "Mind if we talk?" she said
Maureen shrugged. "All right then. I'll go change and be back." Joanne smiled as Maureen walked back to the bedroom, curious to what Joanne was up to. Maureen took her robe off and put on black jeans and a navy blue jacket. She leaned over and kissed Mark. "I'll be back soon." She whispered. "Okay," the filmmaker muttered. Maureen smiled and went out to Joanne.
The two had decided to talk at their old apartment so over there, Maureen sat on the couch, legs crossed. Joanne closed the door and turned to Maureen. She glided over to the couch and sat next to Maureen. She placed an arm around her shoulder and leaned against her. Uh-oh, Maureen thought, realizing what was gong on.
"What's going on?" Maureen asked nervously. Joanne kissed Maureen's neck and Maureen tried hard to escape from Joanne's lure, but she was stuck.
Maureen tilted her head back, but mumbled. "Where's Michael?" Joanne stopped and looked her former lover. "He said he wasn't sure about our relationship and he needed time to think." She stated simply.
"But…" Maureen started, but she was cut off by a passionate kiss from Joanne. Maureen fell back on the couch, Joanne on top of her. Joanne wrapped her arms around Maureen's waist and Maureen cradled Joanne's face in her hands. This is wrong, she thought, I shouldn't be doing this, I have Mark… she stopped and thought for a moment. Maybe I could stay with Joanne for a while, but then break it t her that I just couldn't leave Mark, yeah, that could work…
Joanne pulled Maureen closer to her, though it was near impossible. Maureen let out a few moans as Joanne kissed her neck. "Joanne…" she started, but Joanne didn't seem to hear. Joanne made an attempt to pull off Maureen's jacket, which she did, so know Maureen had a blue spaghetti strap on. Maureen ran her fingers through Joanne's hair as Joanne continued to trace kisses up and down Maureen's neck. Maureen made another attempt to fight back, but it seemed all hope was lost, and the rest was a blur…
About three hours later, Maureen awoke. She felt as if she had had a horrible nightmare. Joanne had come back and had tried to get back with Maureen, but it didn't take long for Maureen to realize where she was.
She gasped quietly as she found Joanne's arms around her waist, Maureen wearing a black bra and black underwear that showed off her curvy figure, and Joanne, her gray bra and underwear sagging as if they had been tugged on. Maureen realized that they were on the couch still, a blanket over their legs. At least I didn't wake up naked, Maureen thought. Suddenly, Joanne awoke.
She gave Maureen a passionate kiss that Maureen reacted to immediately. She jumped off the couch and stop up, not realizing how cold the room was. She stood up, but her face had a bit of a smile on it. Joanne grinned. "You're beautiful, you know that right?" She asked. Maureen shook her head and sat down next to Joanne.
"Joanne, I- I just… can't do this." She said sadly.
The smile on Joanne's face vanished. "Why not?" she asked. Maureen took a deep breath. "Because I'm with Mark." She said. "And you know that." Joanne looked confused. "You're really serious?" she asked, dumbfounded. Maureen nodded. "I'm sorry Joanne, I just…I mean we did have some great nights together, but Mark, he's just… so, so…" Maureen said, gazing into space. Joanne placed a hand on Maureen's knee. "Good for you, but I just have one thing to say."
"What's that?"
""Fooled you!"
Maureen looked taken aback. 'What the hell?" she asked. Suddenly, Mark burst through the door. "Ha!" he exclaimed, but turned slightly red at the sight of Maureen in her underwear. Joanne laughed as Mark ran over to Maureen and picked her up bridal style, placing a passionate kiss on her lips. Maureen pulled away and licked her lips. "Okay, what happened?" she asked.
Mark placed her back on her feet, but his arms were still around her waist, and her hands cradling his head. "Well," he said. "Just for kicks, I had Joanne test you to see how loyal you are to me." He laughed. Maureen laughed and pulled him into anther passionate kiss. She smiled into the kiss and Mark laughed and pulled away for a second. She ran a hand through his soft blonde hair and analyzed his face. "You're so adorable." She whispered.
"You too," he replied. "Especially in your underwear." He added. Maureen laughed and kissed him again. Joanne stood up and laughed. "Maureen, I'm sorry, but I'm happy with Michael." She began putting her clothes back on. Mark let go of Maureen and helped her pick up her clothes. She put them on quickly and walked over to Mark.
He slipped his arm around her waist as she rested her head on his shoulder. "Thanks Jo," Mark said. Joanne laughed and said. "Get out of here you two." They all laughed and the couple walked out the door.
Night had begun to fall. The two had decided to take a walk. On a bench in the park, Mo's head still rested on Mark's shoulder. "Mark?"
"Hmm?"
"I'm really lucky to have someone like you," Maureen confessed. "I love you Marky." She murmured. "Me too." Mark replied. He was telling the truth. Maureen was pretty, talented, and now was proved to be a loyal girlfriend. Mark couldn't be happier.
Maureen knew she really was lucky to have Mark- truthful, adorable, loyal, wonderful Mark- she trusted him with her life and always did. Maureen told herself that she would never hurt Mark again, not today, not ever, and neither of them wanted to hurt each other. They always followed the old philosophy, one that kept them together at times. Maureen grinned and into Mark's shoulder and whispered the philosophy to herself and Mark.
"No day but today."
