Okay… I feel just incredibly bad for not updating in 2 WEEKS! But I do have a good excuse(s). My grandma died, we had to clean her house out and rent it to someone, I've been sick, and I have a ton of schoolwork. So yeah…. I've been busy… but Is till feel terrible that I broke my promise to update once a week. I'll try and update twice to make up for it.

Mary had gone to the hospital, to fin that remarkably she had no broken bones and no serious cuts. She did had to have a few stitches replaced.

Then she went back to the police station, and told them everything she knew.

Then they all went home.

Where Mary sat on the couch most of the day, and watched tv.

She didn't dance.

She didn't smile.

She didn't do anything.

No one brought it up. No one want to upset her after what she been through.

But after two weeks, Mary was sick of that.

Back to square one.

Charity case that everyone feels sorry for.

Mary felt like an accident that the world was out to get. She was rude and hateful, for a full two weeks. And it had been one month since the incident.

NO one quite expected her to just act normally again, but no one expected her to act like that.

She was sitting on the couch one day, and she thought of something she hadn't thought of before. "Who was going to give her away at her wedding?"

She was trying to think of every possible person, but couldn't come up with one.

Then Joey walked inside.

"Joey whose going to give me away!?" Mary said quickly, jolting up into a sitting position.

"What do you mean?" Joey asked walking forward so he was standing at the arm of the couch.

"At our wedding, who is going to give me away?" Mary asked again.

Joey thought about it for a moment, but obviously couldn't think of any candidates either.

"Well… nobody has to give you away. You always were pretty independent." Joey smiled and kissed her forehead.

Mary rolled her eyes. "Yeah, your only saying that because my dads in jail, where he needs to be."

"Mary…" Joey started.

"Just shut up, Parker!" Mary snapped.

Joey didn't say anything else about the matter. He didn't want to upset her more. Mary's attitude had been that way for a while, but it still shocked him. Where was his sweet loving girlfriend?

"So…. " Joey said breaking the silence that had hung in the air for the past few minutes. "umm… I came down here to ask if you wanted to go see a movie. It can be just us or maybe we can see if Tami and Dustin-"

"No thanks." "But we could go see that movie you wanted to see… 'The Time Travelers Wife'" (A.N. First relatively new movie that popped in my head :D)

"I don't want to see that movie." "But you did…"

"Well people change their minds!" Mary yelled viciously as she stood up.

Joey snapped. He had tried to be understanding. He had tried to be kind. But all he'd gotten was yelled at.

"Oh really!" he yelled. All of his pent up frustration coming out in his words, causing every word to sound mean and spiteful.

"Well I want my ring back! I've changed my mind! People do that you know!"

Mary was taken back.

She put her finger on the ring on he left hand and instinctively twisted it.

"Really?" she asked quietly and meekly.

"No." Joey breathed. "But if your going to have this attitude and keep thinking that the world hates you… I don't even know who you are anymore, Mary." He explained much calmer.

"Fine then?" Mary yelled angrily. "If that's the way you feel you can have your stupid ring back." Mary threw the ring down at his feet.

"What?! No! You just don't do anything! You act mean and spiteful-" "Shut up!" Mary screamed. An abnormal lump forming in the back of her throat. "Just take your ring and leave!"

Joey slowly bent down and picked up the ring. He walked outside and closed the door with a gently click. All the time feeling terrible for losing his temper.

One single tear ran down Mary's cheek and she mentally slapped herself for it. Then she sighed and used the remote to turn the tv back on.

Okay, Okay I hat this myself, but things happen and people act different then who they really are. And they say and do things that go against there feelings.

There is only a few more chapters left… but don't worry, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve :D
