�Yeah we should be waiting,� Destiny replied.
�But why?� Sunshine wanted to know. �What if this ride never comes?�
�It will,� Destiny replied. �If not then we�ll go to them. Simple as that.�
�Then they�ll think we�re stalking them,� Venus said.
�No they won�t,� Destiny replied, as there was a knock at the door.
Sunshine got up and walked over. She opened the door and the Boys were standing there waiting patiently. Sunshine grinned and left them inside. They all walked in and Sunshine closed the door behind Nickolas. They looked at each other and Sunshine smiled.
�You ladies look absolutely sexy,� Alexander stated looking at them all. �I don�t know where to begin.�
�What drugs are you on?� Josephine questioned.
�None,� Alexander said checking each girl out again.
�Are you gals ready?� Brian asked.
�Yes we are,� Venus replied, as the girls got up.
�Ladies first,� Howard said, as Sunshine opened the door.
�After you, D,� Sunshine said and he looked at her and she grinned.
�You�re first, Frack,� Alexander snickered.
�Funny,� Nickolas said rolling his eyes and stepping to the side to let the girls out. The girls walked out except Sunshine and the guys followed them. Sunshine waited for them all to go out and Kevin stopped in front of her and Nickolas glared at him.
�After you,� Kevin said.
�That�s alright,� Sunshine said. �I�ll lock up.�
�I can do it,� Kevin said.
�And I can manage,� Sunshine stated walking over to the bed. Kevin looked at Nickolas who just shrugged and he walked out. Nickolas walked over to Sunshine and picked her jacket up off the bed. She looked at him and he held it for her. �Um, thanks.� Nickolas helped her with her jacket and she slowly looked at him. �Thanks.�
�You�re welcome,� Nickolas said, as she smiled. �We better go.�
�Yeah,� Sunshine said picking up her bag and they walked to the door. Nickolas left her out first and he closed the door behind them, as she was dragged away by Josephine.
�Hey, Sunn,� Josephine said then whispered, �you should ask Nick out.�
�I don�t know,� Sunshine whispered looking back at Nickolas, as he followed behind the two girls. �What if he says no? Then I�ll feel like an idiot.�
�He�s not going to say no,� Josephine stated. �There is tension there and that tension needs to be worked out.�
�Why don�t you ask Howie out?� Sunshine suggested.
�I was thinking about it,� Josephine said. �I just might too.�
�I say go for it,� Destiny said and they looked at her.
�Hey, Josephine,� Alexander said joining them. �I was wondering if you would like to catch a movie with me tomorrow afternoon.�
Josephine just looked at him, then at Sunshine and Destiny then at Howard before answering. She looked back at Alexander and said, �I�ll let ya know before the nights over.�
�That�s cool,� Alexander said opening the limo door. �After you.�
�Thank you,� the girls said simultaneously.
�You�re welcome,� Alexander said, as the girls climbed in and got comfortable. Sunshine looked out the window at Nickolas, as he looked in at her and smiled.

�I thought you were asking Howie out?� Sunshine questioned Josephine, as they sat down.
�I was going to,� Josephine began,� but Alex asked me and I just didn�t have the heart to say no.� Sunshine nodded. �Besides, he just might want some info on Des anyway. Why haven�t you asked Nick out?�
�I was thinking about it.� Nickolas walked by smiling at her. She smiled in return and sighed.
�I say do it.� She pulled Sunshine up out of her seat and pushing her towards Nickolas. �Don�t be a chicken. Just do it.�
�Fine I will, but stop pushing me.� She looked at Nickolas, as he stopped walking and said something to someone and they walked away. �Nick.�
�Yeah,� Nickolas said turning around and smiling when he saw Sunshine. �What�s up?�
�Um, well, um,� Sunshine began and taking a deep breath, as he continued smiling at her, �I, um, uh�� She looked at Josephine who nodded. �I was just wondering if, um��
�Sunshine,� they heard Kevin say and they all looked.
�Hey,� Sunshine said, as Nickolas glared at his friend. �What�s up?�
�I just wanted to know if you would like to join me for lunch tomorrow,� Kevin said and Sunshine just looked at him, as Nickolas glared at him.
�Um�� Sunshine started looking at Nickolas and Josephine then back at Kevin. �Um�� Oh boy, she thought, this isn�t good. Not good at all.
�Sunshine,� Kevin said. �Do you have an answer?�
�Um�� Sunshine started again looking at Nickolas. He just looked at her and waited for an answer himself. I know I�m going to hate myself in the morning, she thought, but I don�t want to be rude. �Um, I-I-I-I guess lunch will be fine.� She started cursing herself, as Josephine looked at her surprised. Nickolas looked at her also, but his was disappointment.
�12:30 alright?� Kevin asked.
�Sure,� Sunshine replied. �12:30 it is.�
�Great,� Kevin said and he started walking away.
�Just as friends though and nothing more!� Sunshine called after him and Nickolas grinned. What did I just do, she asked herself, as Nickolas and Josephine looked at her.
�So what were you wondering, Sunnie?� Nickolas asked and she looked at him.
She hesitated before answering, �Um, uh�I was just wondering if there was anything Josie and I could help out with that�s all.�
�Not that I can think of,� Nickolas replied. �Besides, you�re our guests so just don�t worry about helping.�
�But we�re bored,� Sunshine stated.
�Tell ya what,� Nickolas began putting his arms around both girls and they started walking, �in the dressing room in my duffel bag, its green; I�ve got two game boys. You can play them to beat your boredom until the show starts.�
�Fine,� Sunshine said, as he looked at her and smiled.
�I�ll see ya in a bit,� Nickolas said leaving the two girls go and walking away.
�Did he just give us permission to get in his duffel bag?� Josephine wanted to make sure, as she stopped walking.
�Yes he did,� Sunshine replied also stopping and the two girls looked at each other and smiled. �Are you thinking what I�m thinking?�
�Oh yeah,� Josephine said and both girls practically ran to the dressing room.
