"Sherry I'm not wearing that I'm not a slut." She told her friend as Sherry held up a tight black dress. Sherry frowned and put it down going back to her closet.
"How about this one..." She pulled out a red flowing short skirt dress. Maria laughed lightly knowing who will win this fight.
"It's ok..." Maria whispered her nerves getting the best of her. Sherry handed her the dress and pushed her gently to the bathroom.
"Go get dressed."

"You look lovely truly Maria." Maria smiled at Brian as she looked at Sherry who was shooting darts with her eyes at him.
"Why is he here?" She asked her friend. Maria shrugged.
"Mike wanted some pointers on the guitar so he offered to give them," Maria answered putting her earrings in.
"Of course, he does." She sighed standing up. She walked to the kitchen and got a beer out of the fridge. Maria stood there like a mom with a face of disappointment.
"You said you would stop drinking after what happened with you and Jack." Maria sighed.
"Ya but this is only one bottle what's it going to do?" Maria shrugged and got her purse she can't always be the mom of the group. "Is poodle boy staying?"
"Yes, because you need someone to look after you if you get drunk. Do you mind Brian?"
"I don't Maria. Do you guys have a guitar?" Maria nodded and pointed at Mikes's practice guitar. "Thank you."
"No problem."

John opened the door for her like a gentleman and she smiled getting into the car happily. She buckled up and watched him get in the car. "You look beautiful today, Maria." He said looking at her in awe.
"Thank you, you look lovely yourself." John smiled and started the engine. "Do you think Sherry will end up killing him before we get back do you?"
"Most likely they hate each other with a living passion." John laughed pulling out of the driveway. She nodded in agreement.

"Freddie?" Brian said on the phone as Sherry drunk her third beer. She wouldn't head his warning.
"Yes Darling?" Freddie asked. Brian turned to see Sherry had gotten closer to him.
"I think she's trying to kill me!" Brian said a bit panicked. Freddie let out a wholehearted laugh.
"Who?" Freddie asked catching a breath after laughing hard. Brian in no way thought this was funny he knew she hated him and to be honest he hated her a little. He turned to see her closer to him.
"Sherry" He whispered. Freddie laughed more dropping the phone in his laugh. Brian sighed and hung up. He gently pushed her back. She fell back onto the couch as he went and got her a glass of water.
"Poodle boy?" He turned to face her, and she was in tears. "I'm sorry..." She sniffled. Brian grew confused no wonder Maria, Mike, and Jack hated her drinking her emotions gets so controlled over the drink.
"For what?" He asked handing her the glass of water.
"For being mean to you. You're so nice to me and I don't know why." She cried. Brian felt terrible for her and hugged her.
"It's ok Sherry." He said sympathetically. She cried into his shoulder her emotions working incorrectly.
"Brian?" He looked at her.
"Yes?" She sat up and kissed him gently. He froze for a moment, she hated him... he thought. She slowly broke it and looked down at the floor. He was surprised at most.
"Don't tell Sherry because she likes you..." Sherry said before resting her head on his shoulder slowly falling asleep.
