“Shane??Shane??!”

“I’m here Carmen, is something wrong?”

“I…oh hey Alice.”

“Good morning, Carmen!”

“Why are you sweating? Is this the consequence of your night activity with Shane?”

“What? Hahaa, very funny, Al. Why aren’t you at work?”

“Oh you know, I came by and wanted to say hello. Since the incident with Shane I realized that life can be so short and you have to take advantage of the time you can share with your friends. From now on we should see each other more often.”

“Oh…yeah, of course.”

“So you two are back together, huh? I won my bet?”

“What? No, you didn’t. Shane and I are not back together, right Shane?”

“Right.”

“Yaaa…sure…oh where did you get those hickeys? I haven’t seen them yesterday?”

“That’s just an allergy, Al. You now it gets all itchy when peope are too nosy.”

“Oh come on. Just tell me the truth. I don’t care about the bet. I mean, I won…but forget about the money. A victory is satisfying enough.”

Alice was grinning and making the victory sign.

“Forfet it, Al. I just slept in Shane, that doesn’t mean anything. Right, Shane?? Say something!”

“Right, she’s totally right, Al. Sorry”

“Uh-huh. She forced you to be quiet, right? Don’t worry I’ll get you two. I don’t need you to talk.”

I just laughed and shook my head.

“Hey I’m going to take a shower, see you later ladies.”

“Okay.”

It took me 30 minutes to get a shower with the plaster. I couldn’t wait until my foot was free, but I got used to it.

Carmen came in which made me forget my broken food.

“Hey beauty. You wanna join me?”

“Yeah…I’d love to.”

I grinned happily and kissed Carmen softly when she joined me. She moaned and smiled softly.

“Are you okay? You didn’t look good when you woke up. I was concerned.”

“Yeah…I’m okay…”

Again she smiled but I knew that she tried to hide something. I took her hands and kissed her softly on her lips. We closed our eyes enjoying the little moment.

“I know that something is going on…If you don’t want to talk about it, it’s okay. But you know that you can tell me everything, right?”

“Yeah…”

I hoped that she would have told me what was wrong but she didn’t. I didn’t want to force her so I didn’t insist on her telling me what was wrong. Instead I hugged her tightly.

“You don’t know how much I missed you. I hope that we don’t ever habe to be seperated again…I love you…”

“I love you, too Shane. More than everything else in the world.”
