The girls walked around the Florida Mall while the guys attended business in New York. Josephine walked beside Sunshine and kept looking at her. Something was bothering her and she didn�t want to ask Sunshine about it and then have Sunshine get all mad about it. Josephine continued watching her a moment more, as the girls went into Old Navy.
�Hey, Sunshine,� Josephine said and Sunshine stopped and looked at her. �Do you have a minute?�
�Yeah, sure, what�s up?� Sunshine asked and Josephine pulled her off to the side. �What?�
�Um, there�s something I need to know.�
�What?�
�I don�t want you to get mad or anything, but something�s been bothering me the past couple days.� Sunshine just looked at her. �Well, the other day at Nick�s I had to go upstairs to use the bathroom�� Sunshine just looked at her, but said nothing. �Um, well�I heard moaning coming from one of the rooms and uh�um, are you and Nick having sex?�
�No.�
�Oh.� They looked at each other. �You wouldn�t be lying would you?�
�Why would I?�
�Well you and Nick were the only one�s that weren�t outside when I heard the moaning.� Sunshine just looked at her. �Are you cheating on Howie?� Sunshine sighed and sat on a bench, as Josephine joined her. �You are.�
�It�s not that I�m actually cheating on him, ya know.� Josephine nodded. �Nick and I aren�t having sex.� She sighed and looked around. �When one of us gets horny, me and Nick that is, the other helps out. Do ya understand?�
�Yeah.�
�I know Howie likes me and all, but I have no feelings for him. He�s just there, ya know.� Josephine nodded again. �I only care about Howie as a friend and nothing more.�
�Right.�
�I know it�s wrong to go to Nick like I do, but he�s the one that causes the, um, sensations that go through my body, ya know. It just wouldn�t be right to make Howie think that he�s the cause of them. I mean he�s already jealous of Nick.�
�Wouldn�t it be better to make Howie think he�s the cause so not to be jealous over Nick?� Sunshine looked at her knowing she made a point. �Unless you can�t picture anyone else touching you.� Sunshine shook her head. �I understand. I haven�t let Alex or Kevin touch me either.�
�Because they�re not Howie?� Josephine nodded.
�But I do care very much for Kevin. He�s a sweetheart.�
Sunshine nodded. �I just wouldn�t feel right making Howie think that he makes me hot, ya know.�
�Yeah.� They chuckled. �I don�t like going behind his back, but I think going to Nick is the right thing to do.� Josephine nodded in understandment.
�So you finally had an orgasm?�
�Mmmhmm; Nick pissed me off the one day and he wanted to make it up to me.�
�And you picked the, uh��
�Yeah; I never experienced one and I wanted to. So I told Nick that was the only way he was going to make it up to me.� Josephine smiled. �He was more than happy to.�
�But you haven�t had sex yet?�
�Nope.�
�Sucks to be you.�
�And you did.� Josephine just smiled and got up, but Sunshine pulled her back down. �Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? Huh?� Josephine just continued smiling. �Tell me right now or I�ll yell �Josephine Keera Horowitz gives Kevin Scott Richardson blowjobs�.� Josephine�s smile faded and both girls looked at each other. �Who?�
�Howie.�
�What?�
�Howie.�
�Where?�
�At his place.�
�When?�
�After I broke up with Alex.�
�Why?�
�Because it was Howie I wanted the whole time.�
�How?�
�Gee, I wonder how?�
�Huh?� Josephine grinned. �Howie�s wanted me since you�ve been with Alex.�
�Not that night we shagged each other rotten.�
�Uh-huh.�
�It�s not like you want Howie.�
�That�s not the point. He is my boyfriend and I had a right to know that he shagged my best friend.� Josephine just looked at her. �If I shagged your boyfriend I�d tell you and you know I would.�
�I guess so.�
�Ya know so.� They sat there a few moments. �I can�t believe I�m the only virgin left.�
�It ain�t that bad. You�re just waiting for Mr. Right.�
Sunshine nodded and started singing, �I want a man with a slow hand/I want a lover with an easy touch�� Josephine joined her, �I want somebody who will spend some time/not come and go in a heated rush/I want somebody who will understand/when it comes to love I want a slow hand.� They looked at each other and started laughing, but continued singing, �Upon a shadowed ground/with no one around/and a blanket of stars in our eyes/we are drifting free/like two lost leaves/on the crazy wind of the night/darling don�t say a word/�cause I already heard/what your body�s saying to mine/if I want it all night/you say it�s alright/ooh, we got the time/�cause I got man with a slow hand/I got a lover with an easy touch/I got somebody who will spend sometime/not come and go in a heated rush/I found somebody who will understand/when it comes to love I want a slow hand�� People started clapping and they both looked then started laughing, as the other three girls walked from Old Navy.
Sunshine and Josephine stood up and bowed saying, �Thank you. Thank you.�
�What the hell�s going on?� Destiny asked.
�Just giving people entertainment,� Sunshine replied. �Nothing big.�
�I thought it was amazing,� someone said and they looked.
�Brad,� they all said surprised.
�You have my vote for Grammy artist of the year,� Bradley said and Sunshine and Josephine smiled. �Did you think about singing professionally?�
�Yeah right,� the girls said and Sunshine added, �It�s just a hobby.�
�Uh-huh,� Bradley said. �If ya change your mind ya know where to reach me.�
�Yeah,� the girls said and watched him walk away.
When he was far enough away, Sunshine said, �Maybe we should take him up on his offer.�
�What for?� Destiny asked and Sunshine looked at her.
�Just a suggestion,� Sunshine said.
�Yeah,� the girls said, as Sunshine and Josephine went into Old Navy and Venus said, �I think someone�s got a crush.�
�Who?� Danielle asked.
�Brad,� Venus replied. �And Sunn.�
�What do ya mean?� Danielle asked.
�Tell me you didn�t see the way he was looking at her,� Venus said. �And then the way she was looking at him as he walked away.�
�I really wasn�t paying attention,� Danielle said.
�Me either,� Destiny said and Venus shook her head, as they went back into Old Navy.
