THREE WEEKS LATER

Alice was driving on Sunset Boulevard; she parked her mini in front of the Prada boutique telling her self she’s lucky to find a spot along this road anymore. She’s meeting Bette in there, to get Bette’s new suit that she needs for a gala. Alice would always go with Bette to get her new clothes something that inspire Alice letting her knows maybe she can shop like Bette one day.

She got into the flashy store with diet coke in her hand. She met up with Bette in the tailor’s office at the back of the boutique. The staff of the store looking at her holding the coke can carelessly. She looked around the big store, new clothes from the ready to wear collection for fall campaign. She looked in the centre of the store and a man was taking the old poster off and putting a new one in. She walked over to where Bette in the room.

“Alice you’re 40 minutes late… I’m almost finished for god sake…” Bette said looking at her, while a tailor crouching on the ground measuring Bette’s leg.

“I know… I know… I had a fucking brilliant idea for my new piece so I needed to get it down before I forget about it…” Alice said sitting down on the comfy chair looking at Bette in the small stand.

“Right… well, do you want to get lunch after this??” Bette asked, looking at Alice who is thinking about something and off with fairies.

“Alice??”

“Yeah, yeah… lunch sounds good…” Alice said in a different tone.

The tailor finished his job and let Bette go. Bette put on her jacket back and got her stuff.

Alice got up still with the coke in her hand. Bette stood in front of Alice who still has sunglasses on.

“Alice you ready to go?” Bette said getting a bit frustrated with Alice who has been out of balance with… well with everything nearly for a month now, right after there was no more with Shane.

“Yeah, I’m up… yeah, yup ready to go…” Alice said, looking at Bette and putting her sunglasses on top of her head. Alice walked out of the room with Bette in front of her. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and didn’t even hear what Bette was talking about.

Alice bumped into Bette as she stood in the middle of the store. “Ouch! Bette! What the fuck?? Why did you stop?” Alice looked at Bette who still stood there, Alice rubbed her forehead and walked over next to bed. Thinking she probably saw a nice jacket she had to get.

“Alice… maybe you should put your sunglasses back on…” Bette said looking at the poster.

“What? Why?” Alice looked at Bette like she’s crazy. She looked in the direction where Bette is looking at. The new poster where it’s now replaced is picture poster of Shane standing with hands in her pockets and Carmen next to her with her hands on Shane’s chest. One of the pictures of the first shooting was chose to be one of the four pictures of Shane and Carmen fall campaign.

“Is that… is-is that Shane… and Carmen?” Alice asked Bette with her voice getting throaty. “Uhh… Yeah… I’m pretty sure it is…” Bette said. Bette looked over at Alice who is still looking at the poster, the very hot and sexy looking poster, both of them undeniably good looking and looked like god sent creatures in the picture together.

“Are you okay?” Asked Bette.

“I… you better hold my hand before I faint…”

TBC… what do you think??
