Im sorry babe, I tried to make pancakes. Alice smiled at Jordanas lil kids face.

Its alright J. Dont worry about it. The ring was enough. Jordana sat the pan in the sink and sighed. Alice walked up to Jordana and wrapped her arms around her. Youre such a sweetheart, thats what I love about you. Jordana leaned her head against Alices.

            Lara woke up to an empty bed. She sat up and yelled for Dana. She never answered. Lara got up and started to walk around the apartment. She went to the kitchen and found a note on the counter.

Lara-

            I got a call from Subaru and had to make a meeting. I didnt want to wake you, but Ill be home as soon as its over. Love you,

                                                                                    Dana.

            She crumbled up the note and threw it away. She went back up the steps and back to the bed. She feels as Danas keeping something from her, but didnt want to know.

Ooh GodYES!!! Katie screamed when she came all over Danas rubber *****. Dana dropped on top of Katie, out of breath. Her hair matted to her face, sweat all over her body. Katie ran her fingertips up and down Danas moist back. Dana slowly pulled out of Katie and rolled over on her back. I never experience anything like that before. That was incredible. Katie panting heavily. Dana smiled and sat up. She got out of the strap on and dropped it to the floor. She ran her fingers through her damp hair. Katie leaned up against and kissed Danas neck.

I think I better get going. Dana shot up from the bed and started to grab her things.

Why? Did I do something wrong?

No, no. Its not you at all. I just think its time for me to head home. Im sorry, Ill call you. Dana put on her shoes and started to walk out of the house. Katie sat up and watched Dana walk out. She ran her fingers through her hair, thinking.

            Shane walked into her house, body bruised and sore. She stepped in and saw Mark at the kitchen table. Shane walked into the kitchen and grabbed water from the refrigerator. She sat down at the table and took off her glasses. The circles around her eyes are getting worse. She took a drink of her water and sat back on the table.

Morning McCutcheon. Youre up bright and early.

Never went to sleep. What is your excuse?

I have a job to go to. Mark smiled at Shane.

***** you. She smiled and took her hat off and scratched her head. Mark dropped his fork on his plate and walked over to the sink.

Oh yeah, theres a message for you. Its Jenny. Shane looked at Mark.

When did she call?

An hour ago, listen to it. Shane got up from her chair and walked over to the answering machine. She pushed the play button and listen.

Hey Shane, its JennyI know its been a while, but Im calling to let you knowThat Im inviting you, Dana, Alice, Bette, Tina, Lara to Key West. I really want you to make it. It should be a fun vacation, and I hope you tag a longWell I gotta go, I love youBye.

            Shane smiled when she heard this message. This has to be the one day of the three months of self-loathing that she was ever happy. She was ready to get away from this place, but she still had baggage on her back that she had to get rid of.

SoAre you going to go?

Yeah, Im goingI cant wait for this trip. This is what I need, this might help me Shane looked at Mark and walked towards her room.
