A/N: I GOT MY NEW COMPUTER! WOO HOO! Man it has been such a long time hasn't it? lol, well not really. Ok so my new PC is so totally kickass! But I was having major problems getting it hooked up to the internet. We have DSL and we've been paying for it for like 6 months and we tried hooking it up and it was a total bust, lmao. Hey, do you guys want to hear something trippy?ok so I used to have blonde hair and I was so nice and cool but I died my hair red cuz I needed a change and I have turned into a total bitch! that is some crazy shit huh? haha ok so that had nothing to do with the story I just thought I'd share that piece of info with you guys just in case I get snippy with any of you for no apparent reason, I apologize sincerely, haha. Ok enough of that, back to COF. Ok so I have decided that I will NOT end this story any time soon, I am having way too much fun writing it. The original plan was to end it like in another chapter but I decided I'm gonna make it into like a teen drama show, lol. Ya know like The OC and One Tree Hill, I'm leaning more towards One Tree Hill, but there will be a series of major drama and couples will be switching, some you may like, some you might not like so much, but it's my story and I'm just trying to do what's best for all of you, just to keep you hooked, lol. But I promise, all the original couples WILL have their happy endings, but if at anytime in this story I get more request for any particular couple I might just give you what you want, but you have to review all my little sweetie pies :) Ok so I want to thank everyone who reviewed the last chapter, you are all so totally kickass and I love you guys so much, I also want to thank everyone who had patience while waiting for an update and respecting that the chapters were so short, I'm gonna try extra hard in this chapter to make it long. This chapter title belongs to Finch:) Hahaha..by the way I got the Mardi Gras Ball idea from All My Children if any of you guys watch it.

"You're kidding me right? There is no way in hell I will stand within 2 feet of that man!" Trish protested to her two best friends.
"Come on Trish! You have to go, we do this every year, it wouldn't be the same without you." Amy begged with pouty eyes.
"Yeah Amy is so right! If you don't go to the Mardi Gras ball with us then no one will want to go. Do you really want to be the reason that everyone misses out?" Stacy question with the same expression as Amy.
Trish let out a loud sigh and pushed past her two friends who were blocking the entrance to Trish's doorway.
"Look, I'm really sorry ok, I really am. It's just...Stace your gonna be too busy making out with Randy and the same goes for Amy and Stephanie with Chris and Dave, and that leaves me and John. Do you understand how akward that will be? and not just for me, for everybody." Trish explained as her friends stood looking up at their hearybroken friend.
"Actually that's not how it will be at all." Amy said as both Stacy and Trish looked at her with confusion.
"What are you talking about?" Stacy asked still confused.
"About the whole me and Dave making out thing, it's not going to be happening." Amy tried to clear up.
"I'm still not following." Trish said shaking her head.
"Dave broke up with me, so we can both feel akward together." Amy said sadly taking a seat on Trish's porch.
"What?" Trish asked taking a seat beside Amy
"Oh my god, what happend?" Stacy asked doing the same as Trish.
"Let's just say that I'm hating all men that have the name Matt." Amy answered as both her friends exchanged wide-eyed looks.
"We are so sorry." Stacy said pulling her into a hug.
Stacy glanced over to Trish who leaned against throughing Amy an unsympathized look.
"Trish!" Stacy ordered motioning Trish to help console their friend.
"What? why should I feel sorry for her?" Trish said as Amy's head shot up in shock.
"Trish what is wrong with you?" Stacy asked angrily.
"I just don't feel bad for her." Trish retorted still angry.
"Look, I'm not asking you to feel sorry for me, you don't even know what happend so keep your snarky comments to yourself!" Amy spat back now with the same anger as her own.
"Well I can take a wild guess, let's see you thought Dave was gone for good and you decided that you'd hop on the next train that, which I assume was Matt Hardy, and Mr. Batista found out, and now he's feeling pain that he has never felt before all thanks to you." Trish said bitterly causing Amy to run away and Stacy gasp in disgust.
Trish watched as Amy ran down the street in tears feeling a bit of satisfaction. Stacy stood up and pulled Trish along with her with all her strength.
"Ok I know that your hurting because of what John did to you, but you cannot treat your friends this way!" Stacy screamed obviously feeling upset.
"My friends? if you were my true friends then you wouldn't still be associating with John! If you were my true friends then you would be throwing rocks at him and have a few thugs we know beat the shit out of him! but your not, you just keep insisting that this will all blow over...but it won't!" Trish screamed back.
Stacy stared at Trish and shook her head and down the steps and turned to face Trish.
"Ya know what Trish? If you keep acting like this, then you won't have any friends left...all you'll have is your regrets and lets not forget about 'him'. Ya know what forget the Mardi Gras Ball, I'm taking back the invite. And you may think that I'm doing that just to be bitchy, but believe it or not I'm doing it because I AM your true friend." Stacy said in a soft voice and walked off to leave Trish to think about her cruel and unneccessarry behavior.

John walked out of the building that he had currently been working. Since the incident with Torrie he had decided that it would be in his best intrest if he quits and find another job. John had went to the bowling alley where Stacy had given him orders to meet her there as soon as he got off work. He sat in the lobby awaiting Stacy's arrival, instead he was about to be blindsided with the shock of his life.
He had walked over to the gameroom that he thought was vacant but was clearly mistaken when he was greeted by the sight of Trish making out with 'him'. John's stomach dropped at the disgusting sight befor ehim. They weren't just making out, they were mauling eachother! John curled his fist into a ball and was about to attack 'him' but was pulled outside of the room by to slender hands.
"What the fu-?" John started to say but was cut off by Stacy's hands covering his mouth.
"John be quiet! They'll hear you." Stacy demanded as she slowly took her hands down from his mouth.
"What the hell was that?" John asked furiously.
"That would be Trish, but not the Trish that we all know, no no, that's torn Trish." Stacy replied taking a quick glance into the gameroom.
"You knew about this?" John asked now even more infuriated.
"Y-yes." Stacy answered hesitantly.
"Were you ever planning on telling me?" John asked retorically.
"No! Because you did this to yourself, it's called karma and I can't say that you didn't have it coming." Stacy retorted with no fear.
John was about to speak but just at that moment 'he' walked out of the gameroom while fixing himself up as Trish walked closely behind.
"What's up Cena?" The man greeted with a fony smile.
"Nothin much, other than the fact that your screwing my girl!" John retorted heatedly.
"Your girl? Don't you mean 'my' girl?" The man asked cockily.
John moved closer towards the man as trish slowly made her way beside Stacy as if to need some type of protection, Stacy didn't move or make any acknowlegment that she was even there.
"Listen up Levesque, if you don't stay the hell away from Trish then I'm just gonna have to break your legs so that you do stay away from her." John threatend with all seriousness.
"Not unless I break your face first." Paul replied and threw his fist right into John's face.
"JOHN!" Stacy yelled
Stacy had ran over to John to help him up but he had already found his way up and had tackled Paul to floor and pounded his head repeatedly. Trish leaned up against the wall trying to get out of the way as did Stacy but Paul had threw John across the room pushing all of his force into Stacy and Trish which knocked all three of them to floor. Before John could get back up Paul had already ran out the door to get away from security.
John rolled over so that he could check on Trish and Stacy. Stacy had gotten up and was fine but Trish had been knocked out.
"Trish! Trish! Wake-up!" John said shaking her lightly.
"John don't do that, she might have a concusion." Stacy said as she kneeled down beside her and stroked her head lightly.
"John go in the restroom and get a paper towel and put it under cold water and bring it back...hurry!" Stacy ordered him and with no hesitation he did as he was told.
"Trish? Trish can you hear me? Come sweetie wake-up." Stacy spoke still stroking her head lightly.
"Here!" John said handing Stacy the wet towel, he kneeled down next to Trish and grabbed her hand.
Stacy took the wet towel and placed it on Trish's forehead.
"What were you thinking? You could have hurt us, or you could have gotten hurt! You know better than that John!" Stacy said as she started to damp the towel all over Trish's face.
"I know, I know I'm sorry. It's just when I saw how Paul was acting like she was just another flavor of the week something inside of me just blew up." John explained realizing the damage he had done.
"Too bad you didn't actually blow up." They heard a groggy voice joke.
"You ok?" Stacy asked Trish who had struggled to get up.
"I'm fine, thank you." Trish smiled akwardly.
"Trish I am so sorry I didn't me-"
"You knocked me out!" Trish laughed at the position they were all in.
"I am really sorry Trish." John pleaded with Trish who was now on her feet.
"It's ok, I've never been out like that before, it was kinda cool." Trish smiled as did Stacy and John.
"Hey, your talking to me in an appropriate tone of voice. Why the sudden change?" John pointed out feeling a little nervous.
"Well let's just say that someone help me realize that I can't be angry with you forever." Trish said sending a sincre smile towards Stacy.
"So does this mean..." John started to ask.
"No John, I don't want to give you the wrong idea ok. Things will never be the way they used to be, but maybe we can try and be..." Trish was cut off by John.
"Don't you dare say the f word!" John stopped Trish before she could finish.
"Friends..." Trish said seeing the look of disappointment on John's face.
"So what? We just act like nothing happend? Pretend to be good friends? Because I can't do that Trish! I can't pretend that I'm happy just being your friend, that would kill me." John said looking into Trish's eyes.
"Well I don't know, sounds like a pretty good trade to me wouldn't you say?" Trish replied bitterly.
"What's that supposed to mean?" John asked seeing all the anger return in her face.
"You take my life, I take yours." Trish scoffed with bitchiness in her voice.
"Trish..." Stacy said trying to reason with her.
"No! How ungrateful are you John? You break my heart and destroy what ever piece of self-confidence I have left and complain that being my friend isn't good enough! If this is about forgiveness then you need to just let go, because I will never forgive you. What you did was unforgivable and heartless, and now it's my turn to be the selfish heartless bastard." Trish said angrily.
She turned to give both John and Stacy one final look then exited the room feeling more biterness and disgust than one person could feel in three lifetimes combined.

Amy was in her drive way shooting a basketball into the hoops by herself until she spotted Trish heading up slowly. Amy made a loud huff and dropped the ball carelessly and started to walk in her house until Trish spoke.
"I was wrong!" Trish admitted loudly enough so that she could hear her.
Amy stopped dead in her tracks when she heard Trish speak, she didn't turn around but waited for her to continue.
"Instead of being a friend and consoling you, I jumped to conclusions and thought the absolute worst of you...and I was wrong, and I'm sorry." Trish said as she put head down in shame.
"Listen Trish, what John did to you really sucks and I'm sorry that your hurting but why in the world would you wanna take it out on us...your friends? You have got to be the strongest, bravest person that I have ever known and you were always the person who made your friends feel better, not make them feel like shit!" Amy yelled furiously as she turned around with heat.
"I know, I know! I never meant to make you feel that way...I am just so lost, I am just so tired." Trish cried as she closed her eyes as if to sleep. "I'm tired of always having to be the strong one, I'm tired of being brave and I'm tired of being hurt." Trish continued to cry.
Amy stayed where she was and tried her hardest not to show any sympathy for her but failed. Amy walked over to Trish and wrapped her arms around her and let Trish's head fall on her shoulders allowing her to cry.
I guess what they say is true...Sometimes even the strongest most bravest people in the world just need one good cry, even if it means leting someone else see them.
