Okay, finally, I have some time, and some imagination, to write chapter 7! Yay! HIgh School is more tiring than I thought, plus I have tests, friend drama, crap, more crap, and oh yeah, the guy I liked last year who, when he found out, ignored me, is totally flirting with me this year! And plus, I think one of my guy friends likes me, which is just AWKWARD. So yeah. Anyways, sorry if this chapter is crap. Let me know if it coulda gona better. Now, my list of thank yous to those who reviewed...

Mrs. Ishida presents...

Mimi POV

I feel so much better after this morning. I guess all I needed was a hug. Anyway, we sat down and brainstormed about ways to get out of this hellhole, but we didn't get very far. Yet another silence came between us, and I could hardly stand it. I wanted to talk openly to him, not just on confined 'safe' subjects. I remember we used to be able to talk about anything. We've been friends forever... and we fell in love sometime during our friendship. It slowly became an actual relationship, and everything was fine. We were even so much in love and we trusted each other so much that we lost our virginity to each other at 15. It was absolutely the craziest thing I'd... we'd ever done... but we both agreed that we had no regrets, and we were both completely ready for it. And I still have no regrets about any of it.

Anyway, he was now outside on the damp porch, letting in the cold air. Grabbing a sweater out of my bag, I too headed outside.

"I think the storm is pretty much over... I really doubt it's going to rain anymore..." he said, more to himself, as I appeared by his side.

"What should we do?" I asked quietly, taking in the landscape.

"I dunno..." he mumbled, quite disappointing me. I needed to do something other than just stand here making small talk with him, or I'd go crazy and do something stupid.

"Maybe we should have a look around the forest, and maybe we can find a way out of here," I started towards the steps.

"Mimi, no-" he started quickly, but I didn't get to hear the rest seeing as I had just slipped on the still wet and muddy steps, into the mud and grass below. I felt myself flip through the air, and then... I really don't know what happened next, I barely remember slipping.

Matt POV

After my pointless discussion with Mimi, I had to get away from her. It was either that I could talk to her, or I had to be away from her. I couldn't just sit there and not talk to her. So I instead decided to get something done and survey the area of where we were. The morning breeze that was blowing by was quite different than the warm atmosphere of the cabin, but it was refreshing and woke me up, so I could get some thinking done. Basically, all my thoughts just led back to one thing, no matter how hard I tried not to think about it: how to get Mimi back with me. I know she hates me and after this will probably never want to see me again, but I just can't think of my life after this... not talking to her, not being her friend... we've been friends since we were 3 years old, and now that we've dated and broken up, it seems that our friendship is gone. It sucks that that happens, but I guess I'll just have to learn to deal with it. I was so deep in thought that I was momentarily scared when the girl appeared next to me, like I'd been saying what I was thinking and she'd heard it all. I desperately wanted to say something, but all I could manage was a lame:

"I think the storm is pretty much over... I really doubt it's going to rain anymore..." And then there was silence. It was almost like she was expecting me to say something more.

"What should we do?"

"I dunno," i mumbled, not really even hearing the question. Then more silence. It felt like she was waiting for me to say something, as was I.

"Maybe we should have a look around the forest, and maybe we can find a way out of here," and with that she headed towards the dirty, slippery steps...

"Mimi, no-" I could barely get out before the girl tumbled, flipped in midair, which how she managed to do that is beyond me, and before she got a chance to squeal or make anynoise at all, landed with a thud in the dirt, her head still traveling back to the ancient wooden bottom step. And with that, she just collapsed to the side, not moving. Crap. I momentarily panicked. What now? Instantly hopping down to her side, I flipped her over, and noticed immediately that there was a semi-large cut on her forehead, but nothing too serious. Bending over, I could still feel her breathing, and I calmed down a bit. She's just knocked out, that all. I was still a little shaky from the scare I just got, but surprisingly, my trambling arms managed to gently pick her up, not making a sound at all.

Once I laid her down on her pink sleepingbag did I notice. When she fell, not only was her shirt torn and dirty, and even had a few ants on it, so did her pajama pants. That's great. And they're all wet. If I leave them on, she'll be furious that there are bugs and dirt and crap like that were on her, and she'll get sick. If I remove them, if she wakes up, she'll accuse me of rape. Beautiful. Thinking quickly, I decided to do this as fast of possible. I just grabbed a dry shirt and some shorts out of my bag, quickly slipped off the bottoms, and slid the shorts on. That wasn't so hard. Now here's the challenge: Women sleep without bras on. Hmmm... I finally managed to slip off the shirt, somehow get my shirt on her without seeing any of her. Which I only did because she'd hate me, Usually, I wouldn't care. It's not like I haven't seen her before like that anyway. I smile at the memory. Now I tend to her cut. It's not too bad, just needs to be cleaned.

(a few hours later)

She's still out, and it's starting to worry me. Shouldn't she have woken up a few hours ago? I've cheked her pulse and everything several times. Currently, she's still sleeping peacefully in my arms, just in case anything changes. I just sit there staring, bored, when i sense movement. Her nose wrinkles up a little, and she buries her head in my chest, and breathes in. It would've been a perfect moment, except for her eyes suddenly shoot open. When she saw me, she gasped, like I was going to eat her or something. What the hell?

And before I can do anything, she jumps out of my arms.

"What are you doing?" she said, standing up quickly. But apparently she was still weak for she nearly fell again, if I hadn't caught her. And now she chooses to look down.

"Wha.. Matt, where are MY clothes! Why am I in your shirt!" she screeches. If the bus hadn't noticed we'd gone yet, they sure woul've now.

"Mimi, calm down... you fell, got knocked out, your pajamas got all torn up and dirty and wet, so I had to change you into dry clothes before you got sick or anything. I didn't see anything, I swear," I said all in one breath. She looked at me with the same glare, scrutinizing me.

Mimi POV

And if I take a banana, I'll get a rash, because it's Thursday... What? Okay, I don't know why I was thinking that. I know I was thinking about something weird like that, but I can't remember what. But I do know one thing: something smells good... smells like... Matt...mmmm... that lovely mix of sandalwood and his own scent... wait a minute... Matt! I opened my eyes immediately and there he is, looking down at me with those will-killing eyes of his. What am I doing lying in his arms?

"What are you doing?" I asked quickly as I stood up.. whoa... shouldn't have done that... I nearly lost my balance and fell, but once again, I found myself in his arms. And something doesn't feel right...

"Wha.. Matt, where are MY clothes! Why am I in your shirt!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. If he dressed me, that means... But before I could go on, he explained what had happened. Ok. I just stood there glaring. Mostly out of embarassment.

"Well, why didn't you wake me up?" i screeched yet again.

"Meems, calm down! it's no big deal! it's not like i haven't seen you before!" Ohhhhhhhh boy. He did not just say that. That only intensifies my rage by a million times.

"WHAT!'i

"No, Mimi, that's not what I-"

"You bastard! You tried to take advantage of me!" I screamed, and shot over to my bag, picking it up and holding it threateningly.

"No, Mimi, I swear, that's no-"

"Stay away!" I screamed, throwing the bag at him. It hit him right in the head.

"OW!" he screamed, immediately holding his head. "Damnit Mimi, if you'd just let me explain! That's not what I meant to say! It just came out like that, and I promise you I wasn't trying anything! I just didn't want you to get sick or anything!" He said. And before I could react to that, I saw a trickle of blood coming through his fingers.

'Oh my god..." I said softly, and I don't even remember walking over to him, just I immediately felt so bad for him, and how I acted, and just everything.

"What? Oh, Mimi, I'm fine. Seriously." he said, pulling away from me as I gently pulled back him hair to look at the injury I caused him.

"Matt, no you're not... just sit down, let me take care of that..." I said, with surprising difficulty. My throat was hurting, starting to constrict, and I found myself trying not to cry. Am I going crazy? What the hell? Why am I acting this way?

"You okay?" he asked warily, apparently catching the sight of the tears forming in my eyes. And before I could say anything else, I just started sobbing like a little girl. About nothing in particular. I twas just one of those suck ass days when you feel like the whole world is against you, and all you want is a big mug of hot chocolate and a gigantic hug. One of those days where it doens't matter who holds you, just as long as someone holds you.

Matt POV

What the hell did I do now? First, she's enraged and trying to kill me, and chucks her suitcase bag at my head, and then she's looking like she's gonna cry when she sees she's actually injured me, and now she's crying hysterically. What now? Do I leave her alone? Is this that thing women always bitch about... PMS? Or should I hug her, or what?

"Matt, just hold me..." she says in broken sobs, just like when we were together and she wasn't having a great day. OK... I wrap my arms around her lightly, but when she flings her arms around me and settles her head into my chest, I can't help but hold her even tighter. It's another half an hour before either of us says anything. If she wants to tell me what's wrong, she will, when she's calmed down.

"Matt... I'm sorry... I.. I'm just having a really rough day today... I don't know why... I want to get outta here so bad, and I'm cold and uncomfortable, and I miss my bed, and I've just been thinking about way too many things, like my friends, and how I treat them, an how I treat you, and.. just... it sucks... it all sucks..." she finally says through the quick breaths that you get after crying for a long time. I understand.. I hate those days.

Mimi POV

I feel so much better... hugs usually work.,... but it just seems that boy's hugs just work so much better! Especially this particular one's. And my story, the reasons why I'm acting so weird, like I'm bipolar or something, just come tumbling out. He says nothing, which is best... he just hold me tightly and lets me cry. And that's how we spend, I guess, another hour or so. Because it seems like I was in the middle of a thought, and then the warmth was gone. I was warm, but it wasn't the same. It was different than the warm you get when you're little and you're sitting in your mother's lap all nice and comfy, or when you're jsut sitting there witht he one you love, and it's quiet and peaceful. I open my eyes to the familiar sight of the inside of my sleeping bag. So much for that. It's quiet, and it doens'e even look like the sun is out.. If it is, it certainly hasn't lit up the cabin. Which gives me a chance to sit in the dark and think. Think about ways to get out of here, what to do about Matt, my family, Matt, my friends, how I can apologize to Matt, that sort of thing. And to look over the gorgeous sleeping form that is Matt. At the same instant the thought 'you're getting in over your head, don't involve yourself with him again!' screams in my mind, I smile to myself. Maybe going on this trip wasn't such a bad idea after all!

Okay, well, personally, I think Mimi may actually be bipolar. I have no idea why. :P. And yes, the next chapter or so, they should be on MUCH better terms. Hahahaha! anyways, I'll try my very best to get it out soon. I will, damnit! lol, please review and tell me if this chapter is crap! Thank you, and have a lovely week!
