“You have?”  Sam said from behind as she approached the two.

“Oh great” Shane chuckled “all we need is Max and the entire ‘I hate Adele’ campaign committee will be on the set.”

“Yes” Sam smirked at Shane’s remark “but the ‘I believe Adele can fly’ campaign committee beat us here.”   Sam looked at the only person who believed Adele’s little façade.  Sam turned when she noticed Carmen from her peripheral walking into the sound booth.  The other two looked at each other as Sam ignored them to gaze at the object of her affection.

“You’re never going to get anywhere if all you do is stare,” Jenny told her then smiled “hey I just made a rhyme.”

“I know it was so cute” Shane commented as Sam looked at them as if they were idiots.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about” Sam looked away from the laughing duo then stared at the door Carmen walked through.

“Listen Sam” Shane hooked an arm around the brunette’s neck “Carmen won’t know that you like if you don’t make the first move.”

“Take it from us” Jenny said as she went around Sam and wrapped an arm around her waist.

“Her two exes” Sam looked between the two of them.  “What have I got to lose?”

“It’s more like what you have to gain” Jenny corrected.  “She’s a wildcat in bed.”

“And she loves to cuddle, and is a cover-hog” Shane added.

“I’m not sure I like hearing this from the two of you” Sam frowned.

“Don’t worry we’re all best of buddies now” Shane told her.

“And if it doesn’t work out between the two of you” Jenny gave a Sam a tiny hug, “you can join the ‘friends of friends who dated Carmen’ crew.”

“Thanks” Sam said then disentangled herself from the threesome “but I have a feeling that this will be different.”

“Hey before you go do you think I can borrow that handheld for the weekend?”  Shane asked Sam.

“Sure” Sam told her.  “It’s in my office.”

“Cool, I’ll grab it before I leave for my three o’clock.”  Shane said.

“What are you up to?”  Jenny poked her in the stomach.
