Isabella moaned quietly, kissing George back. She wrapped her arms around him, clinging close.

George looked down at her, breaking off the kiss. "Isabella... about earlier..."

Isabella shook her head. "It's nothing, George..." But George started to speak again. "No, really, George... it's nothing..." Isabella smiled.

George sat on the couch in Isabella's living room. Isabella sat across from him in a chair, curled up. He sat down his coffee mug. "You didn't come to the studio today..."

Isabella shook her head. "I... don't know if I will." George looked up quickly. "It just seems so fruitless, George. No matter what I do, no one's happy." Isabella looked down, swirling her own coffee mug.

George's face softened a bit. "Isabella, it doesn't matter who's happy, as long as YOU'RE happy."

Isabella shook her head. "But to make me happy, would make everyone else unhappy. And I couldn't do that." She stood up, picking up George's coffee mug that he sat down. She walked towards the kitchen, George following her.

"Well, what is it that would make you happy, Isabella?"

She turned around and smiled at him.

Miwako looked up at Arashi, clinging close. "Why do you think George acted so funny today, Arashi? Did it have something to do with Isabella?"

Arashi shrugged, wrapping an arm around her naked shoulders, holding her close. "I dunno, Miwako. He seemed out of it though, didn't he?" Miwako nodded. Arashi looked down at her, then up at the ceiling. "I have band practice tomorrow."

Miwako nodded again, laying her head against his bare chest.
