“Because its the initials of my name.”

“But why not CK? I mean your names Christina, right?” Is he ***** with me? Breathe, just breathe.

“No one calls me Christina unless theyre my mother or theyre trying to piss me off.”

Really the conversation got better after he stopped asking those stupid questions and I stopped asking questions about his sister. Speaking of which I havent seen her since I got here. Theres Grace and Alice on the dance floor dancing like idiots. God I hope Grace doesnt dance like that. Because that would explain the drought she was bitching about before I got here.

“Tina I really like you.” he says. Ok, great.

“Well good. I like you too. Otherwise I wouldnt be sitting here with you.”

“Its just that sometimes the straight girls that come with us to the ***** bars just want to see what its all about. And then theyre kinda stuck with me.” Damn that was harsh. “Or worst, the “*****-till-theyre-not girls”want to be around my sister to test the waters.” Damn that has got to be blow to the self confidence.

“And does your sister ever oblige them?” Damn I so wish I could take that back. His face fell and his eyes well up-big time. ***** now Ive know that Ive blown it. He starts to get up, but its to take the seat next to me. He leans in really close before he speaks.

“Can I tell you something that Alice, doesnt even know about?”

Is that even possible? “Yeah, yes of course.” I put my hand on his thigh for him continue. It was just a gesture to calm his thoughts. He looked like he wasnt going to tell me at first. He sighed heavily before he started.

“Well back in Philly, there was this one time that-”

“Hey Munchie, whatcha doin?” Great shes back, and apparently ***** faced. Good to know Im the only one.

“Bette, where have you been, youve been gone for like 45 minutes.” He seems more pissed that she interrupted, than how long shes been gone.

“Well you didnt look too hard.” She wasnt looking at him, but my hand that was rubbing his thigh. Dont ask, I dont remember when I started doing that either.

So Im looking at her and her face is all red and her brown eyes are bigger than they usually are. Shes so adorable right now, I could just hug her.

“Hey Christina.” Ok moment over. ” The bartender over there was asking about you.” She laughed as hard as Grace. Before I could say something really hurtful, Eric pulled me up to dance.

“Hey, Tina you wanna go dance now?” As if I had a choice with the way he had his arm around my shoulder. It wasnt mean, just a little rough is all. When we walked away from the table he gave her this back off look. And she looked on completely hurt. Somethings up with these two big time.
