“I’m not into relationships. You understand?” The shorter brunette slipped on her jeans.

“Where were you? Where the fuck were you Shane!” She demanded.

“Right there Shane! Don’t stop baby!” Carmen cried as Shane wrapped her lips around her clit and began sucking hungrily.

“I’ll do it!” Carmen jumped up and wrapped her legs around Shane knocking her over. “I’ll marry you!”

“Carmen! Carmen!” She screamed from outside the house. “Please, just let me speak to her! Please! I can explain!” Shane begged as Carmen’s muscular male cousins pushed her out of their fenced in property.

“Shane! Wake up! Shane!” Shane head continued to thrash- left to right violently. She had been sweating profusely and tears stained across her pale face.

Shane’s eyes shot open; rubbing the sleep from her eyes she saw a familiar face looking down at her. “Bette? What are you doing here?”

Bette wore a concerned look. “You’ve been having nightmares again.”

Bette dropped by after work. Tina called her telling her she was worried. Shane hadn’t answered her calls nor did she answer any of her other friends calls. It’s been weeks since they’ve seen their friend who had all of a sudden disappeared from the scene. Being the oldest and the most closet to Shane she thought she’d take the extra key Shane had given her for emergencies to see if she was home. She found Shane on bed screaming, crying, and shaking violently.

Shane sat up and shrugged. “Yea, I guess so.”

“Shane, talk to me.”

Shane threw her legs to the side of the bed and brought her knees to her chest, running a hand thru her messy hair.

“I loved her you know.” Thinking about her made her wince and feel the terrible pain in her chest.

Bette smiled sitting down besides Shane and rubbed her back, providing comfort. “I know. I know.”

“No, I don’t think you do. I will always love her.” Death was what had caused her to open her heart up in the beginning when they said farewell to Dana, she knew she had to ask Carmen to marry her because in all honesty that could’ve been Carmen and if it had been she would’ve died inside knowing she wasn’t able to give herself fully to her.
