One reason you have always liked Maria over Ellie is that you tend to like tougher girls. Maria certainly is a tough girl. Ellie and the rest of the cheerleaders...well....they weren't so tough. That's why you weren't suprised to see Marias face smiling at you a few minutes later, though her hair was a bit ruffled. She reaches in to pull you out and you notice the two bracelets she's now wearing.

"what happened to the cheerleaders?" you ask

Maria smiles...more evily than you ever really knew was possible "Oh we can talk about them later Richie...right now I want to talk about our relationship..."

Uh oh.
