Seven and a Half Bohemians Chapter 2"Hey Mark! Roger! Mimi! Over here!" Maureen shouted from across the street. "Everyone is already inside!" The three joined Maureen and entered their favorite Café. "Guys, they're here!"
Collins, Angel, and Joanne were sitting at a table. They got up to greet their friends. Everyone then sat down at a table. The waiter came and took their orders.
"So, what took you guys so long?" Collins asked and leaned back in his chair.
"Mimi and Jamie kept talking about fashion things," Roger answered.
"Yeah, for some reason she's suddenly interested in make up and clothes," Mimi added, "You know Jamie, that's not normal,"
"Yeah," Angel said. "Why didn't she want to come?"
"She said she was meeting some friends or something," Mark told her and took a sip of his water.
"Will she be there when we go back to your place?" Maureen asked.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute! Who said anything about going back to the loft? I have a lot of equipment set up and-"
"I don't know if she'll be there, maybe," Roger answered, also giving everyone permission to go back to the loft after dinner. The rest of the night was uneventful and normal. That means that they almost got kicked out, Roger interrupted the small untalented, band that was performing and started singing some songs from his old band, Collins got thoroughly drunk, and Mimi danced to the music, Angel joined her which scared some of the other (normal) people in the Life Café, Maureen debated with a guy at the restaurant, Joanne stopped everyone before they got kicked out, and Mark filmed it all.
They all walked out of the restaurant, with the exception of Collins who stumbled out because of all the drinks. They walked back to the loft and up the stairs. Mark pushed the key into the lock and slid the door open. Mark and Roger were the first ones to walk in. "I'll get some-" Roger started saying, but was cut off by a very strange and unexpected sight.
Everyone froze when they saw Jamie sitting on the lap of a boy who looked at least 15. They were making out. At least until the boy, who was facing the door caught a glimpse of the intruders and pulled away from Jamie and slid her off his lap. "Uhh, Jay, we have some visitors!" he said with a deep voice. He was obviously going through puberty.
She inched away from her "new friend" and cleared her throat. "Uhh, hi guys!" she said cheerily. "What's up?" Her cheeks were slowly turning a deep shade of red.
Everyone was surprised that Jamie would even want a boy friend. They just stood silently until Collins started to laugh. He was drunk of course. "Aw, our girl got herself a boyfriend!" He started to clap. Much like what he did when Roger and Mimi kissed for the first time at the Life.
Jamie flashed him a look that said, "Why the hell are you here so early and why aren't you leaving?" Collins interpreted this look very easily.
"Okay guys, why don't we leave them alone for a little while, huh?" he started to walk out the door and they all followed him. Glancing back at the stranger and their friend. The boy left soon after and Jamie didn't wait for the gang to return. She went into her room and fell asleep.
When the bohemians left, they just went to a bar and got drunk. In Collin's case, drunker. Everyone crashed or passed out at the loft. Angel and Mimi were the first to awaken. They made some coffee and sat at the table. "He was pretty cute," Mimi said.
"Who? That boy last night?" Angel asked sleepily. She was still getting around a hangover.
"Yeah," Mimi answered.
"For Jamie, yeah. I didn't know that she'd want a boyfriend. She seams like a tom-boy to me,"
"Who? Jamie?" Roger asked from behind. He and Mark were walking towards the kitchen.
"Yeah,"
"That was a surprise when we walked in," Mark added. Soon everyone was awake and sipping coffee. Jamie emerged from her bedroom.
"Good morning everyone," she said casually. Inside she was hoping that they would disregard what she was doing last night. They all replied.
"So," Maureen started, "What's his name?" All the girls flocked to the sofa and started talking about Jamie and her boyfriend.
"Well, his name is Bobby and he's al little older than me, but hey! At least he finally noticed me!" Jamie started getting very excited. She had been crushing on him for a while. They kept talking and talking until Joanne and Maureen had to go. Then Collins and Angel did. Mimi went to work and Mark had the day off. That left Jamie alone with the boys.
"Hey Jamie," Roger said from his place on the couch.
"Yeah?" she was fooling around with his guitar.
"Was that the only thing you guys did last night?"
"What do you- Hey! Of course it was! I'm only 13 you perv!" she slammed the guitar down on the table. She wasn't mad, she just wanted to annoy Roger.
"Watch the guitar!" he yelled.
"He's much hotter than you are anyway," Jamie added.
"Oh, yeah right, that skinny boy cannot compare to this hot bod!" Roger joked.
Mark cut in, "Yeah! That's why all those girls you used to pick up dumped you on the first day,"
"Hey! At least I have a girl!" Roger replied.
Mark was silent and started to blush. "Oooh, that was low, Rog!" Jamie scolded.
"Don't worry Jay, a guy like Roger couldn't possibly keep a girl like Mimi for long!" The two laughed at a hurt Roger.
"Yeah, yeah, keep laughing," he blew them off. "I'm going out for a second," he grabbed his coat and walked out the door.
Content with shutting Roger up, Jamie plopped on the couch and thought about her next date with Bobby.
