A/N: Ok, I was kinda clueless to what I wanted to happen next for a while, but obviously, now I do…so, ya, that's the reason I haven't updated in a while. And before anyone asks, yes, Cathrine DOES comment on whatever anyone's wearing

Chapter 4: Coffee Shop Drama
Cathrine slouched in her couch, reading her magazine with a sigh. Reading her magazine wasn't helping her; she still felt so guilty. All she could think about was Collins; sweet, gentle, cute Collins and the love she had destroyed with his boyfriend.
She sighed and stood up. She had to get out of this apartment and forget this event ever happened. Maybe she would go to that coffee shop down the street that was supposed to be good.
"Come on, Chompers," she said with a small smile to her little Chihuahua as she scooped him up and put him gently in her purse, "We're going out."
Meanwhile, at said coffee shop, Maureen was muttering angrily while sipping her cup of coffee.
"Stupid Joanne," she muttered bitterly, "And her stupid…stupidness. Nothing happened! But, can she understand that? No!"
Maureen simply could not understand why Joanne was so mad. She was NOT flirting with that guy! He was the one who started flirting with her; and he just looked so cute and shy and he might be heartbroken if she didn't flirt back. Didn't Joanne understand that she was trying to save people's hearts!?
She looked up as the bell to the door of the shop dinged and a blonde girl with a dog in her purse came in. Maureen giggled lightly as she saw the dog. That was too cute! And that girl wasn't too bad looking either…
"Hey!" the girl said to her and Maureen looked up to see the girl look up at her with a wide grin as she said, "Nice shirt! It looks cute!"
Maureen smiled and giggled. "Thanks," said Maureen, "You look very….pink." It was true; this girl was dressed up and down in pink.
The girl giggled and sat down in the chair across from Maureen. "I love pink," she said, "It's the color of feminism."
Maureen giggled, "Actually," she said, "Pink is more anti-feminism because it's a stereotypical girly color."
The girl pouted slightly. "Ya," she said, "I've heard about that before…kinda sucks…I mean, everyone should love pink!" After a moment's pause, she said, "I'm Cathrine."
"Maureen," said Maureen with a grin, "And pink's ok….but, I'm a bit of a feminist," she said with a giggle.
Cathrine pouted. "I guess that's ok since you dress cute," she said and the two girls laughed as the bell to the shop door rang again.
"Hey, Roger!" said Maureen with a wave as she saw the familiar face enter.
"Oh," said Roger, walking towards Maureen, "Hey Maureen."
Maureen pouted…Roger seemed sad...like more than usual sad.
"Roger," said Maureen and turned to Cathrine, "This is Cathrine."
"Hi!" said Cathrine cheerfully, "Nice jacket!"
"Hey," said Roger, and then rolled his eyes at her next comment, "Either you're flirting with me, or, you're a stupid little ditz who comments on everything anyone's wearing."
Cathrine glared at Roger and pouted. Maureen did so as well. Now, that just wasn't very nice!
"Roger," Maureen said, crossing her arms, "That wasn't very nice at all! What is wrong with you today!?"
"Sorry," said Roger with a sigh, "I'm just a bit pissed right now."
"I can tell," said Maureen, "Why? You seem…pisser than usual."
Roger sighed and stared Maureen straight in the eyes with a very serious look as he said, "Maureen…Collins and Angel just broke up."
Maureen gasped lightly and hardly noticed that Cathrine's eyes had widened slightly. Collins and Angel break up? No…how could that happen? They couldn't break up…if they broke up…what chance did she and Joanne have now if the couple who was more in love than she had ever seen two people be broke up?
"How?" she said, "How could they just break up!? I mean, they're Angel and Collins!"
"Well," said Roger bitterly, crossing his arms, "Some stupid girl who relied WAYYY too much on a horoscope just made out with him! And Angel saw and-what's up with you?" he asked as he noticed Cathrine's freaked out look.
Maureen turned to Cathrine and looked in confusion as she looked as if she was about to be sick and her eyes were as big as dinner plates.
"Cathrine?" said Maureen, confused, "What's wrong? You look kinda…sick."
"I…" said Cathrine hurriedly as she stood up, "I have to go."
Maureen looked confused but Roger put two and two together and crossed his arms as he stood right in front of Cathrine.
"You made out with him, didn't you?" he asked angrily.
Cathrine gulped and toke one step back….she didn't know much about Roger; but, he looked hell of a scary mad.
"Well!?" said Roger, screaming right in Cathrine's face, "Did you!?"
"What?" said Cathrine nervously backing away as far as she could before bumping into the table, "Why would you say that?"
Roger rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, I don't know, maybe the way you freaked out when I told Maureen what happened."
"Roger!" said Maureen, crossing her arms, "You can't blame every girl for making out with Collins just because you're pissed!"
"Maureen," Roger said with a groan and a bit of annoyance, "Are you freakin' kidding me!? Didn't you just see the look on Cathrine's face when I mentioned someone made out with Collins!? She did it! She's the reason Collins is so miserable right now!"
"Hey!" Cathrine snapped before even realizing it, "It's not like I meant to-"
She then instantly put a hand over her mouth as soon as she said that. Roger crossed his arms and smirked and Maureen just looked at Cathrine in shock.
"You didn't!" said Maureen angrily, "How could you just make out with a random guy like that!?"
"'Cus," said Roger bitterly, "Apparently, her freakin' horoscope told her too!"
"Ok," said Cathrine, "I shouldn't of made such a big deal out of a horoscope, but I didn't know Collins had a boyfriend!"
"That doesn't make up for making out with a random guy!" said Maureen, "I mean, you could've at least found out if he was single of not!"
"Oh, sure!" Cathrine snapped, crossing her arms, "I'm just supposed to say, 'hey, before I make out with you, are you single?'"
"And what's so wrong with saying that!?" Maureen snapped angrily.
"Look," said Cathrine, ignoring Maureen, "The point is…I didn't mean for all this to happen-"
"That's right!" said Roger, "You didn't think! At all! I don't think that's even possible for a girl who just did what you did! I mean, randomly kissing a guy! That's the most stupidest-"
"Well, hey-," Cathrine began, before she was interrupted by Roger.
"Well," said Roger, crossing his arms, "Here's what you're gonna do! You're coming to the loft with me so you can see exactly what you destroyed!"
"Seems fair," said Maureen, bitterly sipping her cup of coffee and glaring at Cathrine, "I mean, Collins has been more happy than I've ever seen him and Collins and Angel where the most in love couple I've ever seen."
"I never wanted to make Collins upset," said Cathrine narrowing her eyes at both of them, "Nor do I want to destroy love…ever."
"You made Collins more than upset!" said Roger, "Do you know that when he came to the loft he looked like a part of him had died! Do you know how much in love Collins and Angel were!? Do you!?"
"No," said Cathrine, clearly upset, "I don't…this was all a mistake and I never wanted any of this to happen."
"Well," Roger snapped, "It did! So," he said, grabbing Cathrine's arm, "Come on! You're coming to the loft with me!"
"But," said Cathrine, "I don't think Collins and his boyfriend would want to see me-"
"Hey," said Maureen smudgly, "If it's a mistake like you said it was, they should be VERY happy to hear your explanation."
Cathrine just glared at Maureen as she was lead by Roger out of the coffee shop and to the loft.
