Here you go! Chapter two!

Ash and Mary-Lynnette

Oh great, Paul had a feeling this couple wasn't going to be as easy.

Mary-Lynnette and Ash burst into Paul's office, both of them looking extremely pissed.

"Hello." Paul said soothingly. "Why don't you both take a seat?"

"Humph." Mary-Lynnette took her seat, crossed her legs and looked away from Ash.

Ash did the same thing.

"Now we are going to have to communicate. That's the only way you are going to feel better."

"I feel fine." Mary-Lynnette snapped.

"I'm peachy." Ash growled.

Paul leaned back in his chair. "You don't look fine or peachy." He observed.

"And you don't look like a therapist!" Ash retorted angrily.

"Why are you both so angry?" Paul ignored Ash's comment.

"Because! My boyfriend is a paranoid hot-head who won't admit anything!" Mary-Lynnette yelled at Ash.

"What exactly am I supposed to admit?"

"Oh, I don't know! The truth!"

"You think I've been lying to you? You think I'm paranoid!"

"I don't think you're lying! I think you're keeping things from me!"

"Like what? What can I keep from you?" Ash stood up, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Exactly! Why do you think I'm cheating?" Mary-Lynnette demanded, rising to her feet as well.

"Why wouldn't you?"

Mary-Lynnette recoiled. "What do you mean?"

Ash looked down at his feet. "I'm a douche." He admitted. When he looked down and ashamed like that, he looked uncannily like a little boy.

Paul fell out of his chair, laughing so hard he was crying.

"You're kind of ruining the moment!" Ash shouted.

"I-I'm sorry! It's just that everyone is so right!" Paul rolled over onto his stomach and began pounding the floor.

"About what?" Ash crossed his arms again.

"Nothing dearest!" Mary-Lynnette said quickly, wrapping her arms around his waist, hoping to distract him.

~Directly below~

Quinn looked up at the ceiling. What was that banging noise?

Then he remembered it was Ash and Mary-Lynnette's therapy session.

"That idiot left them alone!" Quinn smacked his forehead.

"So that's what that is…" Iliana said, looking at the ceiling as well.

"You think they're arguing don't you?" Quinn asked her.

Iliana shrugged. "What else?"

Quinn just laughed and walked away.

~Back in the Therapy Room~

"Done yet?" An extremely annoyed Ash asked when Paul started taking deep breaths.

"I think." Paul got off of the floor and took his seat.

"Now where were we?"

"I think Ash was just admitting something." Mary-Lynnette reminded them.

"What? No, I wasn't." Ash pulled on his leather jacket.

"You're so stupid!" Mary-Lynnette kicked him.

"What? What did I do?"

"Why can't you just admit you make mistakes?" Mary-Lynnette demanded, tears forming in her eyes.

Ash looked down.

"Ash, take the jacket off."

"But I love this jacket!"

"More than you love me?"

"Of course not! Why would you think that?"

"You don't listen to me!"

"Well you always reprimand me!"

"It's true." Paul interjected.

Ash glared at him before turning to Mary-Lynnette. "You've never accepted me for who I am!"

Mary-Lynnette's breath caught in her throat.

"You've always tried to change me! You try to make me perfect! I can't be perfect Mary-Lynnette! I can't be what you want! That's why I think you're cheating, because I'm not good enough for you!"

Tears streamed down Mary-Lynnette's face. "I'm sorry! I'm so, so, so sorry! I didn't even realize! I just want what's best for you, and I want you to be the best you can be, but I push you so hard!" Mary-Lynnette fell to her knees. "I'm sorry! I should have realized! You should have said something! Why didn't you tell me?"

~Intermission From the Too Serious Atmosphere to really be a "Humor" Story...~

"I feel so bad." Hannah said while getting a handful of popcorn.

"We're bad people." Thea agreed, sipping a grape soda.

"I feel like I'm watching a Soap Opera!" Keller scoffed, taking a candy cane Galen offered her.

"Mary-Lynnette's right! She pushes him so hard!" Eric sobbed.

"Poor Ash! She doesn't deserve him!" Morgead blew his nose. "I mean his pranks are genius! And she's such a stick in the mud!"

Thierry stared at the members of Circle Daybreak and wondered if putting a camera in the Therapy Room was such a good idea.

"And he's so gorgeous!"

"Morgead shut up!"

~Intermission Over~

"I know you do Mare!" Ash dropped down beside her. "But can you please not push me so hard?" He took her face in between his hands.

"Yes! Yes! I won't push you anymore! I'm so, so, so, so sorry Ash! I love you so much!"

"I love you too Mary-Lynnette!"

"I promise if there's anything that you want, anything at all just tell me! I'll do anything for you! I owe you so much Ash!" Mary-Lynnette buried her face in his shoulder.

"Well…" Ash whispered something in her ear.

Mary-Lynnette drew her apple red face back. "Are we free to go?" She asked Paul.

"That depends, do you feel like you are going to get along much better now?" Paul asked.

"Yes." They both said.

"Then bye." He waved.

"YES!" Ash did a fist pump. "Let's go!"

He grabbed Mare's hand and they ran out of the room.

~In the Little Sneakers Room~

"That was so beautiful!" The softies sobbed… You know who they are.

"Whe-where do you think they're going?" Iliana dabbed at her eyes with a tissue.

"You are too innocent Iliana." Quinn stated and walked out of the room, laughing once again.

~Later~

"YES! WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY LAND!"

"Ash! Keep you're voice down!"

"Yes! We're going to Disney Land!" Ash whisper-yelled.

Mary-Lynnette pressed her lips together and tried to hide a smile.

"WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY LAND! WOOHOO!" Mary-Lynnette exploded and the two ran toward the garage with their bags over their shoulders.

"Disney Land? " Quinn was so surprised he didn't even try to block a kick Rashel had aimed at his face.

"You're so perverted Quinn." Rashel sighed, helping her Soulmate to his feet.

"I can't help it." Quinn muttered.

"See Quinn! Disney Land!" Iliana screamed from the door of the training room.

"Shut up!" Quinn snapped.

~Five Hours Later~

"Nice cover story." Mary-Lynnette snuggled into Ash's bare chest. "Disney Land." She snorted. "You aren't that childish." She kissed his cheek.

Ash laughed and pulled her closer to him under the silk covers of the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas. "I can't believe you agreed to this."

"Eh." She shrugged. "I owe you. And plus, I knew it'd be fun." She nuzzled his neck. "So how long are we staying here?"

"Just until someone realizes we aren't in Disney Land." He winked at her and smiled in a way that made her think he knew more that he was saying.

Mary-Lynnette gave him an inquiring look and drew back a bit.

Ash shook his head and pulled her back down.

He pressed his lips her hers and thought, you'll find out soon enough.

In the main lobby, Galen and Keller wheeled their suitcases toward the front desk.

Weren't expecting that now were ya? ;D

My, my, my Ash! The Cosmopolitan? "Just the right amount of wrong"? Gee, what were they doing there?

I do not own the Cosmopolitan Hotel! Thank God! Seriously! Have you seen those commercials?

Anyway, review because I updated the same story in the day I posted it! :D ;D LOL
