Chapter 7: Betrayal

You know sims, in crispy times they bounce.

But of course it's nothing a good bubble bath can't fix.

I also sent Minnie to get a new fish because the old one died. We are looking for minnows not goldfish.

I can't believe there's been no mention whatsoever on a real fish in 6 chapters *shifty eyes*

And isn't this one of the nicest looking maid you've seen. Except she keeps eating our food instead of cleaning the dishes.

Annie also got a new car. Her driving skills though were a little off.

Her mind was always glued to one person.

Mason. Her new boyfriend. Who wouldn't constantly think of the comfy massages.

But things just moved a little too fast and things may seem perfect, but really it wasn't always like that.

The couple always had their bad times like when Mason decided to just say that he didn't want a serious relationship, even though he was in one.

And then he would yell at Annie when she asked him if he really meant what he said, I mean after all it is upsetting to hear your boyfriend be anti-relationship like.

But Annie never really took these painful comments to the heart because she melted like butter every time Mason was around.

They would often go to a movie together.

But most of the time Mason's attention wasn't 100% on Annie. Sometimes it looked like his minds was drifting on something far off.

Whenever she asked him to move in he just suggested that they push it to a later date.

And he would leave at the most random times. Often with a smile.

Often forced to just head home because she was lonered by Mason, Annie could always count on Alec to keep her company.

Alec was always quite happy to be with Annie. Ever since aging into a young adult Alec had always looked at Annie in a different way. A more loving way.

On several occasions.

Sadly though Annie only had eyes for Mason, even when he didn't always look like he was having a great time with her.

See. Most their dates together had more than a couple of the usual flaws.

One of them mainly being how Mason goes on about not getting married.

And the way he looked at Annie sometimes creeped me out.

Well, how and where. You know if you're gonna perv, be subtle.

And there was always the sudden leaving.

Worst of all was every now and then he just wouldn't show up and would just leave Annie finding company with whoever was there.

Annie took a long time on the swings reflecting on her relationship. What was wrong? Was it her? Was it him?

That night she had plenty of time to think over those questions and more while she dined with an empty chair.

Plenty of time.

After a night of tossing and turning she decided to put her mind off Mason for a while and focus on more important things.

Like family. She went to Archie's house and I found Jocelyn giving birth in the backyard.

Errm?

Okay now. Aww isn't he cute. Strangely enough he has brown and blue hair O_o. Oh and his name is Cameon.

Inside, Annie decided to give mason another try, but instead all she got was a "I don't feel like it now." Another crushing rejection.

And again she thought. What was going on? Was she just not good enough anymore? Was it another girl.... another guy?

So instead of sinking back into the comfort of her home and friends to ease the pain she did what she should have done in the first place. Go to Mason's house and get some answers.

And dumb answers and lame excuses were all she got.

But then, with a voice like liquid gold he whispered a request. Since she was already here why not get it done.

He was finally going to get what he wanted from her. The only thing he wanted from her.

But it really didn't help him when Annie just rejected.

And rejected.

And rejected.

A smooth,gentle hand and a few kind words always won Annie over eventually.

After all, that was her weakness.

And Mason succeeded.

Finishing with Mason, Annie did some house calls as a doctor.

And had a vaccination session where some clients cried and whined like there's no tomorrow.

Good thing she's a doctor. Maybe she can diagnose her own troubled stomach.

Ahh Alec, my trusty trouble maker. On the one time Mason comes over freewill decides to bring out his hot-headed side. Darn you freewill.

O_o DARN YOU FREEWILL! ... and inappropriate sims. This time it wasn't Alec's fault. Seriously Minnie this is just not right. Poor Jace.

And more bad stuff, Jace had this break up command that I COULDN'T CANCEL!! So sadly... *sniff* they broke up.

Then they proceeded to have some sort of old people smack down.

And Alec asked to just be friends since Minnie caught him by surprise and because he liked Annie.

The whole family practically hated Minnie from then on.

Upstairs Jace was busy telling Annie that everything was gonna be okay and that she shouldn't worry.

Surprisingly enough, nobody had hard feelings towards Alec. Him and Jace still got along.... okayish.

At least one relationship was still going... umm... going and throwing us surprises.

Annie immediately picked up the phone to tell Mason by all she got was a busy tone.

But who has time to wait. She went straight to his house, but it was empty. 

Well, empty except for some guy punching though an old lady.

But outside, she saw it. She saw the reason for all the missed dates, sudden leaving and busy tones.

Then bursting though the door she spilled out everything that came to her mind when she though of Mason.

But instead of the usual "I'm sorry" Mason continued to tease and taunt her and told her how Sondra was so much better than she ever was.  

Then he broke up with her.

Hahahahaha this picture just cracks me up.

Later at home the two victims of betrayal did their best to comfort each other.

And welcomed the new arrival.

But not everyone at home was crushed with the tragedy of the breakup.

Alec here kinda treated it like a window of opportunity. A chance to renew his bond that was worn away by Mason.

It went quite well indeed.

Maybe you didn't know this (because you don't) but Alec has the flirty trait and Annie has the Hopeless romantic trait so his advances were easily accepted.

Easily accepted.

Then just as everyone was getting ready for bed Alec started to do a rain dance.

Oh not a rain dance. A baby panic dance.

He looks more terrified than Annie.

It's a girl.

Annie held the little girl and looked at her with a happy yet surprised gaze.

Then she put on a more scared face as she thought about the baby's father. Would her she have to grow up without one?

More sparkles somewhere else in the house.

Why don't you join us next time :)
