"No thank you. I am fine, they have got fluids going through me already. They say I can't go home till tomorrow. They want me here for 'observation'. I'll rest later. You should probably call Joanne, she's probably looking for you. " Mimi didn't know Maureen already called. "Roger, you can sit down too...There's another chair." Mimi looked at the chair, acting as if the chair was Roger. She still didn't have the guts to look at him.

"I already called her." She looked at Roger who was still standing. Maureen really wanted to know what was going on between Mimi and her. The question had been nagging her non stop since they got into the waiting room and she got a chance to think. She wanted to blurt the question out right now but she kept her mouth closed. She noticed the phone sitting on the table next to her and started playing with the cord. There was an awkward silence in the room that she wanted to break but didn't know what to say.

Joanne didn't have the chance to reply before the phone went dead. All she heard was Mimi in the hospital. Roger was probably worried. Setting down the phone she finished up whatever she was working on then went and got permission to leave. Once it was granted she headed to the hospital. She had no clue where Maureen, Roger, or Mimi would be so she asked one of the nurses and was pointed in the right direction. She entered the room where Mimi was and saw them all in there. She noticed the silence and decided to break it "Hey I got off work as soon as Maureen called, How you holding up Mimi" She noticed the Iv's and such

"I am alright... Just have had a rough day that's all." Mimi could tell that Joanne didn't know what happened today, and Mimi certainly didn't want to tell her. She didn't want her to know till everything was straightened out with Maureen...Whatever that ment. Mimi sat there hoping Maureen would want to talk to her alone, thus kicking everyone else out.

Maureen watched as Joanne came in. She smiled at her, but seeing her there..she couldn't handle it anymore. The suspense was killing her. She HAD to know what was going through Mimi's mind. "Mimi, I'd like to talk to you.... alone." She waited not sure of the reactions she would get.

Joanne smiled at Maureen "That's good, I am sure you have" She got the feeling that the two needed to talk about something important "Roger, why don't we go find the cafeteria and get something to drink" She didn't give him the chance to respond, she grabbed him by the arm and led him out, closing the door lightly behind them, Joanne had felt tension in the room but wasn't aware of what it could be.

As everyone left Mimi sat up more. She pretended to act like she didn't know anything. "What's up?" Mimi really didn't want to start the conversation, she had no idea what to say.

Maureen sighed and got up. She paced around the entire room once and sat down on Mimi's bed this time. She waited a moment before speaking. She stared at a framed picture hung above the bed. It was a picture of the woods with a deer near a river. By the time she looked away and down at Mimi she probably could have told someone every single thing in the picture and all the colors used. "Whats going on.... between us?" She ran her hair through Mimi's hair. "I'm sorry, if you're not up to discussing this right now...." She stopped and waited for Mimi to say something, anything.

"No, we should talk about this. To be honest, I am not sure." Mimi's mind was racing, so many things needed to be said. "Lately I've been divided in halves... Two roads to choose from. I really can't decide.... And a dream I had made everything worse..." One single tear fell down her face, and she wiped it before Maureen could see. "What are your thoughts...before I continue."

"Well...." Maureen started trying to pick her words carefully. "I think I love you, but...." She paused again. "Do you love me? I mean I don't even know what happened. I have never known you to like girls, and then." She stopped and decided to just let Mimi talk. She didn't even know what she was saying.

"No, go on. I really want to hear what you have to say, what you have to say is more important to me than anything right now..." Mimi paused and quitely added, "Yes, I love you...and...Roger.....You and him are the two roads.... Now, please, go on." Mimi's thoughts were finally starting to gather.

"What do you want me to say? I don't know what I want to say." She stopped and looked at Mimi. Her color was getting better and she seemed more alert..and beautiful. Maureen leaned over and kissed Mimi, then she sat back and stared at her again silently.

"Well since we're getting no where, I'll go on. Road number one... That's us, I would love to give that a shot. Only one problem, Roger and Joanne. I know you love her.... Or at least I think you do. You can be very seductive, you know that? You can draw anyone to you instantly..." Mimi noticed a different look on Maureen's face. "No, that's not how I was drawn to you, I am just saying....Now where was I? Oh yes, Roger and Joanne. You know if we do pursue a relationship it will crush them..." Mimi slowed down. "I don't know if I could do that to him... Besides we all know your habits, you flirt like there's no tomorrow with anyone you meet. I can tell how much it drives Joanne crazy, and yet I think she loves you for that too. It keeps her on her toes. Yet, I don't know if I could handle that... Which leads to road number two. We can tell them what happened, beg for forgiveness, and move on...." Mimi took Maureen's hand, "You wonder where I am? I stand at the fork in the road.... Which am I leaning towards? To be honest, neither. I remain neutral.... Now that I think of it, there is a third road. " Mimi paused once more and looked up at Maureen motioning for her to sit on the bed with her, "No, not Benny... sheesh. Maybe it would be best...if I let both of you go.... I, I, don't know. Alright, I am going to shut up now... Your turn..." Mimi fell silent and took in everything she just said. She could tell Maureen was doing the same thing.

noooooooo i missed so much rping. i'm mad. not really. but i'll include everything from my last post.
Roger walked in with Maureen and went to Mimi, kissing her lightly on the forehead. "How are you?" He forced a smile and then backed up. Maureen had sat down already and there was another chair but he didn't want to sit - he couldn't sit. He felt too serious, but looking at Mimi, lying in a hospital bed, looking fragile and pale stabbed at his heart. He smiled at Joanne when she walked in the room. "Hey..Thanks for coming down." He noticed Mimi was avoiding his gaze and he couldn't look at her after that, and disregarded her statement that there was another chair. He heard Joanne ask a question and then noticed he was being pulled out of the room. He walked beside her, remaining silent. He had no idea what to say.

Joanne walked with him, she had felt the tension in the room but wasn't sure if it was her "Was there a lot of tension in that room?" She looked at Roger, she had no idea what had happened but hoped someone would fill her in very soon and she hated to come out and ask but something was being hidden and she wanted to know.
