Shane and Dana sat on floor in the bathroom of The Planet, its where they’d been for the past half an hour.

“I want her back…” Dana whispered almost inaudible and Shane sighed knowing Dana probably didn’t want to hear what she was about to say to her.

“Well Dane…holding hands with your ex…isn’t the way to get her back” Dana shook her head.

“ We were having breakfast Shane…that’s it” Dana shot back. “You think I’m a horrible person right…”. Dana asked and Shane smiled back at her friend with sympathy.

“No…you just made a mistake…we all make mistakes” she wrapped her arm around Dana’s shoulders. “But I’m your friend and I’m here for you…the both of you”.

“Thanks Shane” the athlete rested her head on the shoulders of her friend.

“What’s the story here Carm” Michael inquired about the whole situation that had unfolded less than an hour ago.

“Dana and Alice were dating, Dana cheated on Alice with Keira, who is Nylan’s sister …” Carmen said.

“So what about the red head…” Michael asked.

“Nylan’s girlfriend” Carmen added and Michael’s eye became wide finally understanding the whole incident now but feeling disappointed at the same time. “Wait whoa whoa whoa…what’s that look…”

“What look” Michael shrugged off Carmen’s questioning.

“That look…are you crushing on Nylan…has all that time alone with her finally gotten to you…I warned…I can’t believe you” Carmen shouted and Michael glanced around with embarrassment.

“Yea…uh huh…” Carmen decided not to press the issue anymore.

“Hey Carmen” Michael watched as the red head approached their table with regard. Carmen instantly turned around to meet with Lara’s eyes, she saw sadness and desperation in them.

“Lara…sit down please” Lara took a seat next to Carmen,” Lara, Michael…Michael, Lara”. Lara nodded and smiled at the curly blonde.

“I really need to speak with Nylan…she won’t return my phone calls…” Lara pleaded with Carmen to give her some insight because she knew Carmen had to know something with them working so closely lately.

“Lara…I don’t want to be in the middle of this…but I believe you’re sincere and really care about Nylan so…” Carmen paused for a moment, “we’ll be in the studio later…drop bye”.
