Anne Maria knew she should be celebrating; after Mike won the million dollars. But right now she just not in the mood for parties. While she was watching Total Drama All-stars she saw how loving and caring Mike and Zoey are to each other. After looking back to all those times she fought with Zoey over a personality, she couldn't help but feel regret for trying to break them apart for something so selfish.
She heard some footsteps walking toward her at the bar near the pool but she ignored them, that is until she heard a male voice asking her something; "Hey, why aren't you partying?" Anne Maria turned and saw one of the original contestants and a member of the Drama Brothers sitting next to her; Trent.
She mumbled that she's just not in the mood. Trent can tell that something is bothering the poor girl so like a nice boy that he is he's going to help. "Is something bothering you? You know can tell me anything, I won't laugh or tell anyone. Promise." Anne Maria sighed before giving in, after all she needed some way to get it off her chest, "I feel horrible. After seeing how happy Red and Vi-Mike are in season five I felt guilty for trying to separate them. All because of a personality that's not even a real boy!"
After that little outburst Anne Maria couldn't stop the tears from flowing in time and started had a breakdown. Anne Maria always makes sure she doesn't cry but now her doing this in front of Trent. She couldn't stop. She didn't even pull away when Trent wrapped his arms around her and pulling her into a hug, instead she wrapped her arms around his neck returning the embrace. After a while, Anne Maria is now calmed down but she didn't feel ashamed of crying. Trent reassured her that it's always ok to cry.
Trent had an idea on how he can help Anne Maria, "Maybe you can patch things up a bit. Like, oh I don't know, apologize to them?" Anne Maria knew it would help but to her she really messed things up, after the way she acted she always thought they hated her and never want to forgive her. "I-I can't. I really messed everything up. They probably don't even want to see me." Trent needs to help her, why he doesn't know, but he feels like he has to help her. "Just try, you never know what they'll say or do. I mean come on this is Mike and Zoey we're talking about here. As for as I can tell from watching them on international tv; is that they're nice. And they're willing to forgive and forget. But first you have to go and apologize. Tell you what; I'll come with you if it makes you feel better."
Anne Maria thanked Trent and goes with his advice; apologize to Mike and Zoey. Next thing she knew she was standing in front of them. How or when did she get there she didn't remember. But she knew she has to say something before they get the wrong idea. She felt a hand on her shoulder and knew that Trent is there; giving her support. She took a deep breath and said, "I'm s-s-sorry for the way I acted and treated you guys. I'm sorry for trying to break you guys up for my selfish gain. I'm sorry for fighting with over a boy that doesn't even exist in the first place. I'm sorry…for everything."
Throughout the whole speech, she was looking down at her shoes which to her were so tacky. She looked back at them and saw how shocked they looked. Anne Maria waited for a response of some kind. Finally, Zoey was the first one to snap out of her stupor, "Y-you're sorry? For everything you did?" All Anne Maria did was nodded before she felt small arms wrapped around her and gave a squeeze. "We forgive you." It was so faint, barely a whisper, she almost didn't hear it. "Huh?! You forgive me?! After everything I did?"
Zoey pulled back to look her in the eyes, "Yeah. I mean you really did surprise when you came up to us when you said you were sorry. What made you change?" Anne Maria her about all guilt she felt when she watched All-Stars and saw how happy they were when they were together. "Ok, so you forgive me but what about Mike?" Mike was watching and listening the entire time before he stepped forward, "Same thing with Zoey; I forgive you. I really don't blame you Vito has that kind of effect on most girls. I'm just glad this whole unintended love triangle is over."
That was a few hours ago, and no one had seen Anne Maria. Until tonight when they were still partying, a teenage girl came to the pool. She looks a lot like Anne Maria but paler, or at least less orange colored. Her shirt was the same size as Anne Maria's but slightly shorter, no ruffles or sleeves, and its black. She has on the same kind of pants but they're dark blue instead of light blue and with a belt. Further down are her black platform shoes to go with the shirt. And if you look back up to her face you can see she's wearing less make-up. Right now the only make-up she's wearing is red lip-stick and eyeliner. The only thing that this 'mysterious' girl and Anne Maria have in common is the poof, the eyes, and the silver hoop earrings.
The first person to notice the girl is none other than Trent. "Anne Maria is that you?!" That certainly caught some attention because now everybody, even Geoff and Bridgette, are looking at Anne Maria. Right now they're all wondering if this is really is the Jersey Shore Reject. There was a moment of silence before Anne Maria cleared her thought and said, "Yeah it's me. The real me."
One minute everybody was gapping at her, and the next thing she know she's surrounded by everyone asking her question left and right. There were so many people asking so many questions at once that she got dizzy. This would have continued on if there weren't a sharp ear-splitting noise in the air. They turned to see that it was Jo who made the noise by blowing her whistle. "All right all of you. I'm sure you all want to know as much as I do on what happen to Helmethead. But right how about we step back a few paces, give her some air, and let her tell us what the heck happen to her."
"Well for starters; I was kind of lying about myself. The tan the clothes, they're not really me. This is what I really look like. The reason why I was like that was because nobody at my town liked how I looked. They always say I'm not pretty enough for them or that they don't like my clothes. So I started wearing tan spray and those tacky clothes you've seen me wear on this stupid show. Well this is the real me. The real Anne Maria. This is my skin tone. I don't wear much make-up. And these are my favorite clothes."
The girls who are into fashion; Lindsay, Dakota, and Zoey, complimented how good Anne Maria looks. Even a few guys said she looks hot this way. Suddenly Anne Maria whipped out her hair spray from her poof, which freaked and amazed some of the ex-contestants. "Aw great. Don't you're going to keep spraying your dumb poof are you?" Jo groaned. "No, there's something I wanted to do. Does anybody have a sledge hammer?" Izzy handed her one, no surprise there.
She decided not to question it, "This here hair spray is the last part of the Anne Maria you knew on international tv. Tonight, I'm going destroy whatever part of Anne Maria is left by destroying this spray can!" Anne Maria hold the sledge hammer above her head, "Uh, I don't think that's good ide-" Before Cameron could warn her it was too late. She slammed the hammer down on the can with all her might and there was a pop. The stuff that was in can escape into the air and spread out making everybody have a coughing fit.
When the air was clear again and everybody stopped coughing, Anne Maria became aware of the fact that yet again she was being embraced. It was Trent who was embracing her, "I'm so proud of you." They pulled back and stare into each other's eyes deeply. So deeply that they didn't notice Zoey going behind Anne Maria while Mike is going behind Trent. After making sure that they're too distracted to notice they push the person in front of them.
Anne Maria and Trent became shocked by the feel of the other's lips on theirs. Only a few seconds after they lip-lock did they close their eyes enjoying the kiss. For a long time, neither of them ever thought of finding happiness again. But now they couldn't be happier.
