“Well, thanks for going with me, I really appreciate it” Molly told her smiling shyly.

“No problem, anytime you need sidekick for any future political forums debating” Shane stuttered “you know, Prop. Eight or something like that, call me.”

“Definitely” Molly nodded “I really like talking to you.”

“Good, cause I really like talking to you” Shane replied.

“Where are you taking me?”  Sam smiled as she smiled at Carmen.

“It’s a surprise” Carmen smiled back as she threw her car in drive then took off.  Sam excitedly sat in the passenger seat of the small car with a wide grin on her face.  “I hope you like seafood.”

“I love seafood” Sam smiled at her.  Fact is, Carmen could’ve taken her to dumpster behind a prison penitentiary and she would be okay, just as long as they were together.  The fact that Carmen had been the one to ask her out on a date put the DP on cloud nine.

“Good, because we’re headed up the coast to this nice little place, and they serve the best ceviche I’ve ever had” Carmen looked at her raising her eyebrows suggestively.

“Oh good I love ceviche” Sam smiled, “your timing couldn’t be anymore perfect with the filming pretty much done.”

“Except for Adele’s little bit” Carmen laughed.

“Yeah, can’t wait to see what she has done” Sam shook her head as she laughed along with Carmen.

“How long do you think it will take before she realizes that she doesn’t have the negatives?” Carmen asked.

“I’m surprised she hasn’t checked any of them” Sam said incredulously, “I’m just happy that we’ve already gone into production without them knowing.”

“What are your plans now that the shoot is over?”  Carmen looked at her briefly then looked back at the road.

“No sure really” Sam looked at Carmen for any sign of interest.  “I thought I might stick around here and see what happens.”

“Good” Carmen seemed to release a breath she didn’t even realize she was holding in, “Because something is definitely happening here.”

Propped up on pillows and her lower body covered with a sheet, Bette stroked Tina’s hair as the blonde rested on top under the sheet, her head on Bette’s stomach.
