MK:  “Speaking of which.  I was um wondering…I have…there’s an extra bedroom here.  It was my gym but I’d much rather have it be your room.”

Carmen:  “Really?”

MK:  “Well I can’t stand to be in this place alone and I know you need to be out your moms place so I figure it’s the perfect arrangement.”

Carmen:  “MK I’d love to really but I could never afford a place like this.”

MK:  “Carmen this place is paid for.  I can never repay you for what you’ve done for me.  Please let me try.”

Carmen stood and looked around.

Carmen:  “Well so long as this isn’t a habit, I’d say you’ve got a new roomy!”

MK smiled brightly as the two embraced once more.

MK:  “We’ve got some shopping to do.”

Carmen:  “Yay!!”

Bette lay in bed staring up at the ceiling as she thought.

Bette:  I can’t believe MK is back.  I’ve never been so happy and terrified in all my life.  She looks so beautiful.  She lost a little weight.  She’s still gorgeous.  I love her hair longer.  Those jeans still sit on her hips like glue.  She looked at me so cold today.  As if I was nobody.  I guess to her I’m not any more.  I hurt her so bad with my horrible decision.  How could I have been so stupid?!  God I miss her so much.  I can still feel her here with me.  Touching me, kissing me, loving me.  Where do I go from here?  How do I move on?  What’s going on between her and Carmen?  I‘ve never known them to be so close.  I was under the impression she wasn’t in contact with anyone all these months.  I really have no right to be jealous of them.  I left MK so she’s free to be with anyone she wants.  Anyone but Carmen.  I still love her so much.

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­MK lay in her hotel room in a similar position as Bette.

MK:  I’m so happy Carmen’s going to be staying with me.  I don’t think I could stay there by myself.  In fact I know I couldn’t.  She’s been such a good friend.  I could never repay her.  I never thought I’d lay eyes on Bette again.  She still looks so beautiful.  No no no!  She’s not beautiful.  She’s a heartbreaking wintch.  But she’s so sexy.  Damnit!  She cut her hair.  I like it short.  Why am I thinking positive things about her.  Because I still love her that’s why.  I am so stupid.  How could I love someone who hurt me so badly.  I need to get passed this and quick.  I’m going to be seeing her on a pretty regular basis now.  Her and fucking Tina.  I could jump out of a window right now. At the sight of seeing them together.  I don’t think I can take it.  What am I going to do?  I still love her so much.
