Cris didn’t show her usual enthusiasm. ” what? ” Doug asked.

Cris waited, thinking of something to say. ” I’m…..not going to New York I’m staying here. “

Doug looked even more confused. ” You hate L.A…..are you on crack? “

Cris looked at him and laughed. ” No, I have better things to do then go around the country doing nothing. “

” What are you talking about?. you love to perform! ” ” It was just a hobby, I have a new hobby now. “

” Yeah? Trust me, she’s not worth it ? ” Doug said ” Fuck you.” Doug got serious ” For real kid, this is the best thing for you. you’ll never get a chance like this again.”

Cris downed a shot of whiskey. ” I hope not. I mean think about it, I don’t need the money, If i wanna sing, I got a shower. So i figure it’s a stupid ass thing to go around chasing dreams for people who couldn’t catch them for themselves…………….”

carmen looked at Cris who had finished talking talking. ” So what, you didn’t hit him? ”

Cris laughed and held Carmen closer. ” No, straight bar remember? ” Carmen nodded ” Aw, right. ” They got quiet and stood there like that for several minutes. Carmen turned around to face Cris. ” I love you. ”

Cris kissed her hard on the lips and walked carmen backwards towards her bedroom, she tripped over a table in the hallway but recovered quickly turning her attention back to Carmen who was laughing, thay finally got into the bedroom and Carmen sat down on the bed waiting for Cris who was still standing by the door. ” Whats wrong? ” ” Nothing, i’m fine. ” “come here.”

Carmen said sexily, Cris got closer to the bed and Carmen got to her knees and was about to take off her shirt when cris moved to help her. Cris threw the shirt onto a nearby chair, they kissed while cris’ hands went over carmens body. tracing lines over her stomach feeling the goosebumps.

Carmen put her hands through cris’ hair. Cris ran her tongue over carmens bottom lip, Carmens lips parted and she tilted her head to deepen the kiss. cris blindly pulled down the straps on carmens bra. cris broke the kiss and started placing kisses along carmens jawline, down to her neck, Carmen moaned and clutched cris’ hair as she kissed the spot behind her ear. hearing carmen moan made the hairs on her neck stand up. she ran her tongue over carmens collarbone. Her hands slid up carmens back to the clasp on her bra and undid it slowly removing and discarding the bra the same as she did with the shirt.
