“I understand,” Sarah pulled me around to here lap causing me to chuckle. “Hey, I heard that super awesome band Betty is playing at The Planet tonight.”

I turned her nose up, “Wowthere’s a first,” I lean over and kiss her lips. Kissing her is not like kissing Dana. I’m reminded

“I know, I know, but it something we can do. You know. Outside of the walls of THIS apartment,” Sarah teases.

I knew how much being with Sarah has helped me get over Dane. Well she has at least taken my mind off the subject. I owe her this. I eye Sarah, cocking my left eyebrow, ” Ok, ok we can go to The Planet, but only if you buy me ice cream on the way home.”

“I think I can do that,” Sarah said with a smile, wrapping her arms around me.

We finished our food and before I even realize we are in The Planet and I am sitting at a table with Shane.

I look over at Shane, ” I really can’t believe you are here. I thought you couldn’t stand Betty.”

“Hey Carmen had to work tonight, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it,” Shane responded taking a sip of her beer. “So you have got to tell me what’s going on with your little hottie.”

I feel the heat rush to my cheeks, “Well, we have grown close, but we haven’t been intimate if that’s what you’re hinting at.”

Shane chuckled as Carmen and Sarah walked over with fresh drinks. “Looks like we missed something pretty funny,” Carmen said taking a seat on Shane.

I bring the drink to my lips, rolling my eyes playfully. I feel Sarah tug at my arm.

“Come on let’s dance.”

“Are you serious? Me being caught dancing to this?” I see the disappointment in her eyes as my comments leave my mouth. “Ok. Ok.” I put my drink down, getting to my feet.

Shane and Carmen smile, “Have fun!”

I turn around with a fake smile and nod my head. The thing is when I got to the floor with Sarah, I realized that for the first time in a long time I was in The Planet, with friends and not depressed. I wrapped my arms around her waist, bringing her close, I shut my eyes and then I smelled her. I think I must be going crazy because all I can smell is Dana.
