So I pretty much hated the last chapter. This actually has part of the plot contained in it! I might even go back and just take out the first chapter. What do you think?

Don't own it.

"Now you have to tell me where we're going!" Angel said from the passenger seat of the van Collins had "borrowed".

"We're almost there, just wait!" Collins answered, not letting up on his "wait and see" policy.

"Oh, come on, you can't keep her waiting this long; she's going crazy!" Mimi added from the backseat.

Angel gasped. "You know something, don't you?" she said, twisting around to look at Mimi, jokingly offended. "Don't you?!"

"Oops."

"Oh that's just great!" she said, throwing her hands in the air. "Everyone knows but me!" She paused and grinned at Collins. "Unless..."

He smiled too, just a little. "Unless what?" Angel leaned forward until her lips were centemeters from his ear.

"Please?" she whispered softly, then moved her lips to brush across his jaw before turning her head to smile at him. Collins looked torn for a minuite before shaking his head.

"No no no no no no no." He said, smacking the steering wheel for emphasis, "you'll find out when we get there. And seduction will not change that." Angel leaned in to try again, but this time she didn't move her lips from his face. They stayed there until Collins turned to press his lips to hers, his hands brushing across her face to rest on her neck.

"ROAD!" Mimi suddenly yelled, breaking them apart to grab the wheel and keep them from colliding with a long line of waiting taxi cabs. "God, Collins, you can't keep off her long enough to drive?" Collins blushed (as much as a black man possibly can) and Angel was quick to retaliate.

"Well, I don't see you and Roger resurfacing too often!"

"That's completely different."

"Oh, and how is that?"

"Well, first of all, we're not in a MOVING MOTOR VEHICLE!"

"Oh, please, what difference does that make?"

"There's no one to RUN OVER for instance!"

"Well, when you say it like that of course it sounds-"

"AHEM!" Collins cleared his throat loudly and the two girls noticed that the car had stopped moving.

"OH! We're here!" Angel said, looking out the window to see exactly where they were. "New York University?" She asked, reading the sign in front of them. "Uh, hun, why are we here?" But Collins just smiled.

"Oh yeah, it would probably make more sense if you read this..." He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out an official-looking envelope adressed to Angel Dumott-Schunard. Angel whipped it out of his hand and tore it open exitedly while Collins and Mimi shared knowing looks.

"AHH!" She sqealed, enclosing Collins in a rib-cracking hug. "AHH! ILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEILOVEYOU!"

"Good to know." He chuckled as Angel backed away to show Mimi the letter.

"OH THIS IS SO WONDERFUL!" Angel yelled, throwing her arms around Collins to kiss him yet again.

"And there's something else too." Collins said when they broke apart. "They're letting Mimi stay with you too!"

"AHH!" Now both girls squealed.

"You didn't tell me that part!" Mimi said, smacking his arm.

"Well, you just never know what I'm going to do, do you?" Collins teased, wiggling his eyebrows. Suddenly he leaned forward to kiss Angel from across the seat.

"Oh yeah, that was unpredictable." Mimi commented, but her friends weren't paying attention. "Hey, its almost five o'clock..." No response. "Hello?" Finally, she opened the door of the van and climbed out. "Oh, get a room!" she said, and continued inside by herself.

Comment if you love me! It might actually make me write more!
