CHAPTER 22: I Should Tell You
July 6th 9pm Eastern Standard Time
(At the Life)
Maureen and Benny sat at the table silently eating.
"Why are you doing this?" Maureen finally asked.
"I thought you could use so company." Benny said with a smile.
"Since when do you give a damn if I'm lonely or not?" Maureen asked.
"Since the day I found out I loved you." Benny said looking into her eyes.
"Benny…"
"I know you are married and you want to stay committed, but…"
"Its not just that, Benny. I love Joanne to death.. Hell, I wouldn't know how to live without her." Maureen said smiling.
"I understand." Benny said sadly.
"We can be friends." Maureen said.
"Ok." Benny said with a weak smile.
When Maureen got home, she decided to call Joanne.
"Hello." Joanne said sounding like she was sleep.
"Hey Pookie." Maureen said excitingly.
"Hey Honeybear. What's up?"
"I just got back from The Life." Maureen said.
"Alone?"
"No, with Benny."
"Why?" Joanne asked curiously.
Maureen told her the whole story and Joanne started laughing.
"What did you tell him?" Joanne asked.
"I told him that I loved you and couldn't live without you."
"What did you really tell him?"
"Pookie.." Maureen whined.
"I believe you, he called and told me."
"What?" Maureen asked with a confused look on her face.
"He told me that he felt bad for trying to interfere in our marriage and that we were meant to be together." Joanne explained smiling.
"Do you agree with him?"
"No."
"Pookie, the more you play around the more I miss you…..now stop." Maureen said pouting.
"Yes I agree with him….and I miss you too, but I have to go because I have to be at a meeting early in the morning."
"Ok." Maureen said sadly.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
(At Roger and Mimi's)
Mimi started laughing hysterically. Angel and Collins looked at her like she was crazy.
"What's so funny?" Collins asked.
Mimi laughed harder.
"Sugar? Are you on drugs again?" Angel asked.
"No." Mimi said barely breathing. "The looks on your faces are priceless."
"You just told Collins and I that you are pregnant with Benny's baby. How the hell do you want us to react, honey?" Angel asked sitting next to her best friend.
Mimi started laughing again.
"I was joking."
Angel and Collins laughed nervously.
"Then why did you ask us to come over here?" Collins asked.
Mimi stopped laughing.
"I want you guys to help me with Roger's surprise party."
"His birthdays not until October." Angel said.
"I know, but I want this to be the best birthday of his life….I want to show him how much I forgive him for all the shit that's been going on." Mimi said smiling.
"That's sweet, Chica." Angel said happily.
"Are you even pregnant?" Collins asked still stunned by her prank.
"Yeah." Mimi said giggling.
"Are you sure it's Roger's?" Collins asked.
"No, its yours." Mimi said sarcastically.
"You weren't supose to say anything." Collins joked.
"Or it could be mine." Angel said.
"Or Mark's." Collins said.
"Stop making me sound like a whore." Mimi said pretending to be offended "The only person I see myself having kids with is Roger." Mimi said.
"That's how we see it too." Collins and Angel said.
(At the Loft)
July 7th 1:30am Eastern Standard Time
Mickey ran to the bathroom.
"I guess I'll go home." Roger said sadly as he walked towards the door.
"Roger?" Mark said stopping him.
"Yeah?"
"Thank you so much."
"No problem. That's what friends are for." Roger said dryly.
"No, that's what brothers are for." Mark said walking up to his friend.
The two men embraced in a tight hug. Roger left and Mark sat on the couch.
"I'm sleepy." Michelle said sitting on the couch.
"You can sleep in Luke's room if you want." Mark offered.
"Who's Luke?" Michelle asked.
"Your brother, he's staying at a friends house for the night." Mark said smiling.
"Is Mrs. Mickey going to be ok?" Michelle asked.
"Yeah, she's just under the weather…that's all." Mark said smiling. "Lets get you in bed." Mark said picking his older daughter up.
When he came out of the bedroom Mickey was sitting at the table.
"You ok?"
"Between throwing up every ten seconds, finding out our child I thought I miscarried is alive, and finding out that craziest person I've ever known is alive….. I'm peachy." Mickey said sarcastically.
"I know this is a lot to take, honey." Mark said rubbing her shoulders.
Mickey got up and opened the bedroom door looking at the sleeping girl.
"She looks just like you." Mickey said smiling.
Mark wrapped his arms around her.
"Mmmhmm." He said kissing her neck.
"We have two daughters." Mickey said excitingly.
"Now I definitely know I'm going to die of an heart attack when they become teenagers." Mark said laughing.
They started laughing.
"I'm going to take a shower." Mickey said walking out of the room.
"Me too." Mark said following her.
Mickey stopped walking and started laughing at him, he picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.
A/N: I am going to let you choose who dies. PM me your answer.
Maureen
Benny
Mickey
The reason I choose these people is because there aren't many fics where Benny dies or where Maureen dies and Mickey is just a OC. REVIEW! NO FLAMERS!
