Mark walked into the loft after a very intense 5 day ride back to New York, he looked around and noticed that Sami's play pin wasn't in its corner.
"Mickey?" Mark said looking the all the rooms.
When he came out of the bathroom, he saw a note on the metal table, he picked it up and his hands began shaking.
Mark,
I can't take this. Should I let you fall? Lose it all? So maybe you can remember yourself or should I stay here and work things out? I can't keep believing, we're only deceiving ourselves and I'm sick of the lie, and you're too late. Don't cry to me. If you loved me, you would be here with me. You want me, come find me. I will drop the kids off Friday and you can spend the weekend with them. There's no need for use to see each other.
Love always,
Mickey
Mark began to cry, he went to the nearest cabinet and began drinking a bottle of Vodka.
(Down Stairs)
Benny let Mickey stay in Mimi's old apartment so she could clear her head, she sat at the window smoking a cigarette looking at people walking down the street, then she saw Mimi walk into the building, minutes later there was a knock on her door.
"Fuck." Mickey said going to the door.
She opened the door and Mimi stood there with her arms crossed.
"When did you start smoking?" Mimi asked in a serious tone
"When my marriage got fucked to pieces and my sister started hating me. I could go on, but that's for another day." Mickey said sitting back on the couch.
"I don't hate you, I'm just really pissed." Mimi said sitting next to her little sister.
"I guess that's one thing I scratch of my 'many reasons to kill my self' list." Mickey said sarcastically.
"What made you sleep with him?" Mimi asked.
Mickey sighed and explained everything to Mimi.

Mark threw the empty Vodka bottle at the wall and got off the floor and went to the phone. The first number he dialed was Joanne and Maureen's.
"Hello?" Elise answered.
"ITS YOUR UNCLE MAARRRKKKK!" Mark sang in a drunk voice.
"Hi Uncle Mark, where's Aunt Mickey at? She left without saying bye." Elise asked sadly.
" She's probably fucking Uncle Roger's brains out." Mark said with a happy voice.
Elise dropped the phone. Joanne walked up to her.
"What's wrong?"
Elise just handed Joanne the phone and ran to her room.
"Hello?"
"JOANNE, HEY!"
"Mark?"
"NO, ITS COLLINS." Mark said in a deep voice. " I JUST GOT THROUGH TELLING EL ABOUT MICKEY AND ROGER'S FUCK FEST."
"YOU DID WHAT?" Joanne was now furious.
"Do you know where my wife and kids are?"
"No and if I did I wouldn't tell you."
Joanne slammed the phone down.
(Downstairs)
"Are you going to talk to him?" Mimi asked.
"Are you going to talk to Roger?"
Mimi threw her head back and sighed.
"I hate when you do that." Mimi said laughing. " No, I'm not going to talk to him. Tory and I are staying with Collins and Angel."
"Have you talked to Tory about all this shit?" Mickey asked dryly.
"I told her that Roger and I were going through some problems and just needed time apart."
"That's what I told Luke….. You need to talk to him." Mickey said.
"I needed to forgive you first."
"Do you?"
"Of course I do. I'm not going to lie, I did have a plan to get you two back." Mimi said laughing.
"What was your plan?"
"To sleep with Mark."
The two sisters began laughing.
"Have you talked to Roger?" Mimi asked.
"Why would I do that?"
"I was just wondering." Mimi shrugged.
"There's no way I could face him." Mickey said.
"I understand." Mimi said getting up. "I have to go, because I have work in the morning."
"Ok……thank you."
"For what?"
"Forgiving me." Mickey said.
"Nothing can rip us apart, we're sisters." Mimi said leaving.
Mickey shut the door and laid on the couch.
An hour later there was a knock on the door, Mickey opened the door and Roger had flowers in his hand.
"What are you doing here?" Mickey snapped.
He replied by giving her a deep kiss.
A/N: What is wrong with Roger? LOL!
