A Sign for Mark

"Come on! Get up you have to go to school!" Mark whined as he pulled at Colleen's leg. A muffled yell replied back to him from the mass of pillows and blankets.

"No I don't! If dad doesn't have to go anywhere neither do I!"

"Your dad has nowhere to go and if he did I would drag him out of bed like I'm trying to do to you!"

"Can I please just have one more day?" A much nicer version of Colleen replied. Mark could tell that she was pouting under all of the pillows. Why do I let her hang out with Maureen so much?

"NO! You have already missed to much school and you're screwed on finals as it is." A slight rustling replied him but with no demeanor of getting out of the bed. "Okay fine. I will just call the school and tell them you can't be in Hair, and that they will have to use your understudy." Mark said slyly as he started to walk out of the room. As he was leaving he heard some loud movements and a sudden wait on his back that made him fall to get ground.

"Don't you dare you little pumpkin headed, white, albino, fucker." Colleen said in a screaming whisper so that her dad wouldn't hear her.

"HEY! That's Collins line!" replied Mark as he pushed Colleen off him. "So I guess this means your going to school?"

"Shoot. Yeah I guess but only because your evil and know my weak spot of drama." As Colleen said "drama" she struck a very dramatic pose, which got Mark laughing.

"Oki doki Miss Tony, go get ready." Mark started pushing Colleen towards the bathroom.

"Oki doki?" questioned Colleen.

"Yes oki doki. Now get ready!" With one final shove Mark pushed Colleen into the bathroom.

After making some coffee for himself, Mark walked out to the fire escape. He took a deep breath. He was very relieved that Colleen was acting mature, or at least more mature than Roger was. Roger had been trying and Mark would give him that but he still wasn't in full parental mode yet. While letting the coffee fill his nose with its delicious aroma and fogging up his glasses something caught his eye. He cleared off his glasses and looked below his fire escape to what used to be Mimi's. No one had lived there in a while so he was surprised to see something out on it. Sitting in the corner was a lawn chair. Hooked to one of the lawn chair's arms was a pair of handcuffs pilled on the seat of the chair was bubble rap. Weird. That's something you don't see everyday. As Mark turned to leave a sudden flashback hit him.

"Mimi Marquez, clad only in bubble wrap, will perform her famous lawn chair-handcuff dance to the sounds of iced tea being stirred." Mark said laughingly. After Mimi gave a little preview Roger started ranting on Mark.

"And Mark Cohen will preview his new documentary about his inability to hold an erection on high holy days."

"Ha, Ha very funny." said Mark as he swatted Roger's hand out of his face.

"Whoa, that was weird. I haven't thought of that in a long time!" Mark said walking quickly back out to the fire escape to check if he really had seen the lawn chair.

"Thanks Meems." Mark said quietly and walked back inside to find Colleen eating cereal.

"Morning!" Colleen greeted Mark with a mouth full of Frosted Flakes.

"Morning to you too. Happy you finally got up and ready." Mark said smiling.

"Why are you smiling so much? All I did was take a shower." Colleen asked jokingly.

"Huh? Oh nothing I just remembered something that reminded me of your mom." Mark said looking at Colleen.

"Really? That's cool. You know I have been remembering all of the good times that we used to have. She used to dance me around the room while dad played the guitar, you know." Mark nodded. He had seen them doing so but usually let them enjoy being a family, but sometimes he filmed their little dance parties.

"Yeah I remember. Okay well it's time for you to get going, you don't want to be late." Colleen rolled her eyes and grabbed her backpack.

"Tell dad that I love him and that I will be home as soon as school's done." Said Colleen, as she headed towards the door.

"Will do. See you later." Mark said while refilling his coffee cup.

"Bye!" And with that Colleen headed out of the loft.

Okay one down, one more to go. It's time to get Roger onto his feet and tell him that he needs a job. Or at least try to get a record deal. Here comes the "I'm not going to sell out!" speech. Well here goes nothing. And with that thought Mark started towards Roger's door.
