| "So what are we gonna do about this?"Vanessa turned to him after what seemed an eternity of silence. "I guess all we can do. Go through all the legal mumbo jumbo there is to deal with." "That's your answer to this all?"Vanessa sharply responded. "What do you want me to say? Say there's an easier way because I know there sure as hell is not any easier way to do this,"he shot back. "I'm sorry. I've been just a little tense as I'm sure you have been." "Look,"he took her hand,"We did something really stupid last night but in the eyes of the law it's all legal and binding and it's only a matter of time before the media gets hold of the story too." "So you're gonna deny it then?" "Do you want me to?" "I really don't know what I want to be perfectly honest with you. My friend Sherl wanted your head when she found out what had happened and the rest of them... well, most of them have their own problems to deal with right now." "I see." "I don't think you see. I left them to come here and try to solve this little mess we made before it got outta hand. I came to Vegas to have fun with some friends I made over the internet all because of your music and now here I am married to one of ya because I couldn't control my inhibitions." "Back up. You came together here because of us?" "Bravo!" "Slow down Vanessa. I don't really understand why you're so angry." "Why am I so angry?! I'm pissed off because I came here to have a good time with the girls and drunk or not, I fell in love." Shit! her teeth gripped her upper lip. "I was afraid you were gonna come here and blow me off." "So you don't wanna end this either?" "Wow!"she exhausted. "Wow?" "I'm sorry. I just thought that... well...you..uh...oh never mind. One thing though." "What?" "I'd like to finish school." "I wouldn't have it any other way." |
