            Carmen woke up to the sound of knocking on her apartment door. She slowly got up, not waking Shane. She grabbed a shirt off the floor and put it on. She walked out of her room and headed down the hall. She looked through her peephole and saw Nikki.

Oh *****. She thought to herself. She opened the door and stood in the doorway. Hey.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

I came by to get you. Remember our date for the night. Nikki said. Carmen put her hand to her head.

Oh god, I totally forgot. Im so sorry.

Oh, thats alright. So are you going to let me in?

Umm, I would, but Im kind of busy right now. Nikki nodded her head.

Its your ex.

Yeah. Carmen smiled faintly.

Alright then, I guess this is my cue to leave. Nikki started to turn around, but Carmen grabbed her arm.

I truly am sorry. I hope that we can still be friends. Nikki smiled.

I guess we can. Nikki gave Carmen a kiss on the cheek and walked away. Carmen closed her door and headed for her bedroom. She climbed back into bed and wrapped her arms around Shane. Shane stirred in her sleep and rested her hand on Carmens.

Where did you go? Shane asked softly.

Someone was at the door, but noone important. Shane didnt say another word and fell back asleep. Carmen kissed Shane on her neck and fell back asleep.

            Alice was working on a piece for a job as a journalist for L&G Magazine for lesbians and *****. She thought of it has a good opportunity for her and stop working as a DJ. She was making spelling checks on her paper when there was a knock on the door. She put her glasses above her head and got up.

Who is it? She walked up to the door and opens the door.

Hey.

Hi Dana. Alice was kind of shocked to see the brunette at her door, but happy to see that beautiful smile again. Come in. Dana walked into the apartment and turned around.
