Who’s that Lady? – chap1

Chapter One

Shanes POV
I walked into the club and spotted Alice sitting at the bar, terrorizing some innocent girl with her constant chatter and references to the chart. I still cant believe she put that thing on the Internet.
Shane! Damn, she spotted me. I lazily made my way across the floor. With Alices attention elsewhere, the poor girl quickly got away while she could. Smart girl.
Hey Alice, would you please stop scaring the newbies away before I even get a chance to meet them.
Alice rolled her eyes at me. I dont get why people take offense to the chart.
Maybe they dont want their love lives posted somewhere anybody and their mother can find them.
People dont have to put their names on it, argued Alice. I know you dont care and I asked everyone else.
What about the people who you put with me and didnt ask? Hmm? What about them?
Fine, but I havent gotten any e-mails complaining or telling me to take their names off.
Fine. Where is everyone?
Alice sighed. Bette and Tina are sitting with Marina over in the corner there, she said, pointing to the three of them.
And Dana? Alice glared at me. What? You always know where all of us are.
Alice sighed again. Where do you think? Shes out with Lara.
I still cant believe it turned out she was ***** after all. Good for Dana.
Yeah, but bad for you. I looked at Alice and quirked an eyebrow. Well, you flirted with her and got nothing. Youve lost your touch.
Please.
Come on Shane. Whens the last time you had a date … or just skipped the date and went right for the *****?
Okay, Ill admit its been a long time but I havent lost my touch. Alice nodded, wearing a smug look on her face. Shut up. Alice just chuckled and took a sip of her drink. She started choking as she looked at the front door. Are you alright?
No I am not. Alex Desmond just walked in the door.
I looked at Alice, this moment turning into a clich movie scene, as Madonnas Whos that Girl? played over the speakers. Who?
You dont know who Alex Desmond is? I shook my head and followed Alex with my eyes. Shes beautiful, although not my type. Oh my god. Alex Desmond is THE hottest thing right now. She does everything. There is no one better then her. Alice turned around to watch Alex as well. And now she is walking over to Bette, Tina, Marina and … Dana? When did she get here?
I swear you have ADD. I have never known you to stay on one subject, with the exception of the chart, for more then ten minutes. Alice just shook her head. We had nothing else to say so we sat in silence, watching Alex Desmond, with her dark brown hair up in a ***** bun, make her way over to our friends.

Marinas POV
Oh. My. God. Alex Desmond just walked in and is making her way towards us. Bette, Tina, and myself all look towards the door after Dana points to it, as Alex slowly walks to our table. I stood up and waved at her. Marina, you know her?
Yes I do. Alex was finally at our table. I hugged her. What are you doing here?
She kissed me on both cheeks. I thought Id come visit you. I happened to be in the neighborhood for an interview and I havent seen you in a long time.

Alices POV
What is Marina doing?
And you say I have ADD.
Shane glares at me and points back at Marina. Alice, look at her. Does she not remember what happened when her and Jenny first got together?
I look at Shane. Shes not making any sense whatsoever. Shane, what the ***** are you talking about?
Look at her! I look at Marina again as she hugs Alex. I mean, after what happened with Jenny and Tim dont you think she shouldnt be hugging and kissing other girls, especially famous ones?
Ah ha. So, thats it. Youre jealous that Marina is getting attention from a celebrity and youre not.
I am not jealous!
Sure youre not Shane. I stand up and grab my drink. Im going to leave you here to wallow in your denial. I want to meet Alex Desmond. Marina obviously knows her.
Als! I waved her off without turning around.

Danas POV
Alex looked at the rest of us at the table just as Alice sat down next to me. Are you going to introduce me to your friends?
Oh yeah, of course. Marina turned to us. Guys, this is Alex Desmond. Shes my little sister.
Wow, youre like my all time favorite singer. I gush. Oh my god. Did I actually just say that? I blushed as I noticed everyone, including Alex, looking at me.
Really? I nodded. Well, thanks. Marina brought a chair to the table for her and she sat down. Youre Dana Fairbanks, right? I nodded. Youre my favorite tennis player. Ive seen all your games. Marina looked between the two of us, quirking an eyebrow as she did. I blushed again and ducked my head, the water circles on the table becoming very interesting.
Youre a singer? Tina asked. Are you any good?
Alice looked at Tina with disbelief. Any good? Tina, havent you been reading my mag? We did an article about her last month. Shes one of the best singers of our time. I watched as Alex blushed and also found something on the table to be very interesting. Alice looked at Bette. She even donated a bunch of money to the museum.
Bette looked at Alex. Youre Alexandra Desmond? Ive seen some of your work. Youre really good.
Alex blushed and quietly said, Thank you.
Hey. I looked up and saw Shane standing next to Alex. Great now, I dont have any chance with her.
Hey, Bette said as Alex looked at Shane with mild disdain. Maybe I wouldnt have had a chance even if Alex had never met Shane.
Shane, this is Alex. Alex thinly smiled at Shane, who just sat down, completely ignoring her.
So, Dana, how are things going with the chef?
Great. I was hoping no one would bring Lara up. I cant lie to my friends. I sighed. Were over.
That sucks.
Thanks Shane. I slowly put my head on the table. Im so freakin pathetic.
Youre not pathetic Dana. Its her lost. Shane stood right back up. She probably doesnt want to have to deal with my problems right now. Ive got to get going. See ya guys.
Bye Shane, I said, although it was muffled from my arms being wrapping around my head.
Alex then stood up as well. I should get going too.
But you just got here, Alice said. She obviously wants Alex as well. Shes acting the same way she acted towards Jenny. I wonder if Marina knows Alice had hitted on Jenny.
Yeah, its pretty late and I have an early morning. Its nice meeting yall.
Where are you staying? Tina asked.
Oh, a hotel just outside the city. It kinda of sucks. I have to get up in, Alex looked at her watch, three hours at the latest. Which means Ill only have an hour to sleep. It takes two hours to get there.
I picked my head up. You can stay with me.
Everyone stared at me. I couldnt do that. We just met.
Its not like youre going to be sleeping with me. OH MY GOD! Where the ***** did that come from?
I meant I couldnt take advantage of your kindness like that. Is she blushing? I just wouldnt feel comfortable. Thank you though.
Come on. I insist. Any sister of Marinas is a friend of mine.
I only have the one sister. Marina turned to Alex, And I would invite you to stay with me but my girlfriend gets back in town in an hour which means I have to go. Alex, take Dana up on her offer or the rest of them will offer and all kinds of ***** will happen. Ill see you in the morning.
See ya Marina. Alex, are you staying with me or what?
Alex watched Marina leave. Marinas right, Tina spoke up. Alex turned around and looked at her. If you say no to Dana the rest of us will invite you to stay with us. Alice and Bette both nodded, not that Bette asking would have been any different then Tina asking, although she could probably be more forceful.
Well, I dont want to go through this two more times. She must have picked up on the fact that Bette and Tina are together. So I thank you now for the offer and this is also my way of saying yes by the way.
Good. Lets go then so you can get your sleep. Alex nodded and we left, saying goodbye to the others.

Tinas POV

She seemed kind of
Stuck up? finished Alice.
I glared at her. That wasnt what I was going to say. I was going to say that she seemed kind of uncomfortable around us, like she had something to hide or feel guilty about.
I know what that was about. Alice and I looked at Bette. Alex and I we kind of went out in college.
I blanched. What?
It was only for a semester, our first semester. Her and I were roommates and I dont one thing led to another and we were going out.
Oh, my, god. Im linked to Alex Desmond!
No you are not. Alice looked at Bette and quirked an eyebrow. We never got that far. To my best knowledge Alex was still a virgin then and could be even now.
I highly doubt shes a thirty-five year old virgin, Alice said, practically scoffing.
Well, for one thing, Alex is younger than Marina by at least a year. She skipped a grade if not more.
So, shes thirty-four. I still dont think shes a virgin.
I looked between Alice and Bette, sensing another monogamy discussion coming along. You know what guys? Im really tired. You ready to go Bette? Bette squinted at Alice but nodded. Great. Well see you tomorrow Alice.
Yeah. Bye you guys.
Bye Als. I quickly ushered Bette out the door. You dont seem so tired right now.
Yeah, well, I didnt want to listen to another monogamy lecture. Alice will never understand so its useless trying. I turned Bette towards around and kissed her. I dont want my girlfriend and one of our friends constantly fighting. Bette nodded and kissed me.
Lets go home and practice some sexual monogamy. I looked at Bette, my eyes wide. What? I cant have any surprises up my sleeves? I chuckled and got in the car. Bette closed my door and climbed into the drivers seat. She looked at me and grinned a grin that made my heart melt and we were off, speeding and running all kinds of red lights to get home as soon as possible.
