Mimi was diligently typing out her essay
when everything went black,
"Hey! Not funny I have to get this typed out ... Philip?"
"Uh-uh."
"I know it's not Shawn
this isn't his thing. Not Brady. It can't be Kevin. Do I know you?"
"Uh-huh."
"Well, I've listed every guy I can think
of and I still have no clue who you are so I give up! Who is this?"
The world was bright again and she heard a familiar
chuckle,
"It's me!"
Mimi's head whipped around,
"Oh my God! What are you doing here? I thought you left Salem?"
"God
huh? That's cool you can worship me!"
Mimi rolled her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh,
"Not in this lifetime! Seriously
Jase what are you doing back?"
Jason pulled up a chair and turned it backwards to straddle it,
"I miss my MTV. So I
moved back and I'm living in the apartment above my parents garage. Gonna do the whole college shindig right here in fabulously
exciting Salem."
Mimi smirked at him,
"You were homesick!"
He frowned,
"Not!"
She raised her brows in disbelief,
"Were
too, Masters!"
He shrugged,
"No, I wasn't I just don't like dorm life. If I missed anything it was living large! Well,
that and harassing you is always a good draw too!"
She snorted,
"Am I supposed to feel flattered by that?"
He nodded
smiling smugly,
"Pretty much, yeah! So where's your nerdy boyfriend?"
She glared at him,
"Oh grow up! Kevin and I
went our separate ways. It was a mutual decision. We didn't want to do the whole long distance relationship thing."
Jason
grinned,
"Then it's a good thing I came along when I did! Maybe it'll improve your love life if other guys see you talking
to someone cool for a change!"
Mimi looked amazed,
"You know Jason you might be right! I better go now! Gotta find me
someone cool to talk to! You take care now!"
He grimaced at her,
"Such a clever airhead!"
She laughed out loud,
"You're
one to talk Mr. Brains are in his jockstrap!"
He smirked and shook his head,
"Just can't stop fantasising about me can
you, Meems?"
She faked dry heaves,
"Yes I'm fantasising about you right now!"
He rolled his eyes,
"Whatever Lockhart!
So what's new? Ghoul Girl dead yet?"
Mimi's jaw dropped open,
"Jason! That's not only morbid- it's rude! You should
be ashamed of yourself!"
He looked surprised,
"What? At least I was nice enough to ask about her! So is she?"
Mimi's
eyes widened incredulously,
"Nice enough? Jason honey there's a little thing called tact that you need to get some of ...
it would go a long way towards improving your social life! And FYI far from being dead CHLOE is in remission!"
Jason stood
abruptly,
"Don't talk to me like I'm an idiot. I know what tact is and my social life is just fine thanks!"
Mimi's eyes
glittered with amused comprehension,
"Ohhh, I get it! You're lonely! That's why you're bothering me! In highschool you
rarely talked to me except to call me a loser and now you're all chummy!"
He made a disgusted face,
"I'm not lonely,
as if! I've got friends!"
She nodded looking around,
"Riiiiggghhht! So where are these friends of yours? Are they of
the invisible imaginary sort?"
His face turned red and he turned to walk away. Mimi let out a long breath and followed
him,
"Jason, wait! Hey come on wait up! I'm sorry okay?"
He stopped but didn't turn around so she stood in front of
him,
"Jason I'm sorry. That was mean of me. You were such a bully in highschool and I saw a chance for payback. To be honest
it didn't feel very good. No more Meany-pants Meems I swear! Okay? No hard feelings?"
He nodded resignedly,
"Yeah okay
no hard feelings. I gotta go."
Mimi put a hand on his arm,
"Jason? I don't mind so much that you're back."
He smiled,
"Thanks,
Mimi. See ya around."
She nodded once,
"For sure! Later Jase!"
He waved and walked away. Mimi sighed and headed back
to her study area to finish typing her essay.
