8 Hour Love Story..
This is an Alternate Universe fic…I'm trying to do something a bit different…I don't own RENT or it's characters I do own any original characters you may see (like Mackenzie…Mimi's roommate)
Lyrics to the title song '8 Hour Love Story' Belong to Jacob Young
"So let me get this strait," Maureen said, "you hire Mimi to take my place in the video and she took my place as your girlfriend as well."
"I never looked at it that way," Roger said, "It just happened I mean I still love you it's just."
"You think you found someone better," Maureen said, "I get it you are Mr.Rockstar."
"So you're not mad at me," Roger asked.
"Mad Roger," Maureen said, "I'm pissed but lets face it this is Hollywood things like this happen everyday at least we can try and be civil about it."
"You are still with Joanne aren't you," Roger said.
Maureen nodded.
"Friends," Maureen said.
"Friends," Roger said.
Maureen smiled and left.
"That went better then I thought," Mimi said, "I thought there would be a major cat fight."
"As much as I would have loved to have seen that," Roger said, "I'm glad things turned out the way they did."
"And that's a wrap," Mark said.
"Please don't tell me that you got all that on tape Mark," Roger asked.
"No," Mark said, "but as for the song video all I need to do is edit it together and we are good to go."
Roger smiled.
"It's been a long day and I have a few calls to make," Roger said.
"Damage control," Mackenzie asked.
"That's the least of my worries right now," Roger said, "Markey here deserves to have his work premiered in style."
"You don't have to," Mark said.
"You put up with all my crap," Roger said, "it's the least I could do."
Roger left the studio to make some hone calls.
"I got to go too guys," Mimi said, "see you later Mac"
"Bye," Mackenzie said looking at Mark, "now that was a set up if I ever saw it."
"We have to talk," Mark said."The words every girl longs to hear," Mackenzie said.
"About last night," Mark said, "that kiss."
"It was an accident right," Mackenzie said, "you just want to stay friends no strings I get it."
"Just the opposite actually," Mark said, "except."
"Here it comes," Mackenzie said.
"After I'm done putting the video together I'm going back to New York," Mark said, "I know what happened when distance was involved in your last relationship."
"Don't want to talk about that disaster," Mackenzie said.
"That's exactly why we can't be together," Mark said, "at least not yet."
"Sounds promising all of a sudden," Mackenzie said.
"I'm going back to New York to sell my place," Mark said, "then I'm moving back in with Roger until I find a place here all my own."
"So when you move back then," Mackenzie said as Mark pressed his lips against hers.
"We can be like this," Mark said smiling.
TBC...
I know crap right...ideas are slim to none and in the next chapter or 2 will focus on the premiere of the video and wrap up loose ends also when I finish there will be no sequel but if anyone wants to adopt Mackenzie and continue her story go for it but give me credit
