When they all walked in to Common Grounds it wasn't that busy, but Monica was not there. They walked up to the counter to find Oliver cleaning some mugs. When he saw them he sighed and said "And what can I get you four?" he made it sound as if he was trying really hard to be polite to them.
"Where's Monica?" Shane asked.
"Don't know, don't care" Oliver replied.
"Seriously Oliver, I am so not in the mood for all this bullshit. Just tell me where that fucking slut is." Eve said with some much fierceness. A few people sitting at tables nearby turned their heads. "Sorry about her" Claire said.
Oliver glared at Eve. He to, was surprised at her sudden behaviour.
He finally said "She should be here in a minute."
"Guess we'll just have to wait" Michael said.
Eve sighed and sat down at a table while Claire ordered them all coffees.
About 10 minutes later Monica arrived into Common Grounds with Gina and Jennifer. A couple of heads turned to see her dramatic entrance. Claire made a noise of disgust, and Shane snorted. As Monica walked towards the counter she saw them. She smiled and winked at Michael and Shane who looked away. She carried on walking and ordered her coffee. She came back to their table and said "Hey hotties, why are hanging with the geek and the freak?"
"Hey!" Shane and Michael both chorused.
Eve got up, stood in front of Monica and said "We seriously need to talk."
"Do we?" Monica asked like she couldn't care less.
"About my brother" Monica stopped in the middle of the process of putting her coffee to her lips. "Oh, and the drugs your giving him." Eve smiled and got a chair from another table and put to their table for Monica. Monica hesitated but sat it in and gave a sign to her entourage who went and sat at another table. "So?" she asked but they could all see that she was nervous.
"So, why are you giving my brother drugs?" Eve asked.
"I'm just trying to help him which is more that what you've been doing." Monica snapped. Eve looked away. Monica smiled evilly. But she hadn't won yet. "You're not helping him. You're making him worse. He's all screwed up because of this." Eve said.
"Look if you're looking for someone to blameā¦" Monica began.
"We've already found them." Shane said.
Monica continued as if she didn't hear him, "Then you should look for the person who gave me the drugs."
"And who would that be?" Michael asked.
"You really wanna know?" She asked with that same evil smile. "Brandon."
