Sunshine and Josephine sat in their motel room with the other three girls. They were all ready for their platonic dates with Kevin and Alexander, as they referred to them as. Destiny also had a date with Brian which none of the girls could believe. Danielle and Venus were doing the solo thing at the motel and be bored.
As they all just sat there, there was a knock at the door and Josephine answered it. After she opened the door she saw Nickolas, Alexander, Howard, and Brian standing there. They smiled and she said, �Hey.�
�Hey, Josephine� Howard said. �May we come in?�
�Sure,� Josephine said stepping to the side and the Boys walked in. �Where�s Kevin?�
�I knew it,� Sunshine said. �He�s standing me up. It never fails no matter who it is.�
�No he�s not,� Brian said. �He stopped somewhere to get something. He�ll be here so don�t worry.�
�I�m not worried,� Sunshine said. �I�m used to being stood up by friends, boyfriends, family, or whoever.� She sighed. �He better be here or you�ll never see me again, because I�ll join a nunnery and never trust another guy as long as I live.�
�Anyway,� Alexander said. �Are you ready to go Josephine?�
�Yes I am,� Josephine replied. �Shall we go? I don�t want to miss the movie.�
�They�ll both miss it,� Danielle said, as Josephine and Alexander walked to the door.
�What was that?� Alexander asked.
�Hope ya enjoy it,� Danielle replied covering herself up.
�We better get going too, Brian,� Destiny said putting her jacket on. �We don�t want to be late.�
�We�ll see ya guys later,� Brian said opening the door, as Sunshine looked at her watch.
�What shall we do?� Danielle asked.
�Poker,� Venus said holding up the cards. �That�s all we got anyway. Are you in, Sunn?�
�Count me out,� Sunshine said grabbing a magazine and getting up. �I�ll just wait in the bathroom. If Kevin ever comes let me know.� Then to no one in particular she said, �Not that I really want him to show up anyway, because I�m just going to hate myself.�
�Alright,� Howard said, as Danielle followed Sunshine.
�She doesn�t trust guys does she?� Nickolas questioned.
�Something like that,� Venus answered. �She says they�re all the same. She never really had a real boyfriend like the rest of us. They were mainly just friends.�
�That�s too bad,� Nickolas said. �She�s gorgeous. I hope she doesn�t end up spending her life alone.�
�Does someone have a soft spot for the nice ray of Sunshine?� Howard wondered and Venus and Nickolas looked at him.
�That was corny,� Venus stated. �Good thing Sunnie didn�t hear ya or she would have bopped ya one right in the nose.� Howard smiled.
�No,� Nickolas lied. �Do you?�
�I have a soft spot for all the ladies,� Howard replied.
�Ain�t that sweet,� Nickolas said rolling his eyes and sighing, as Danielle came out of the bathroom. �How�s she doing?�
�She�ll be fine,� Danielle said. �Nick, I think you should go and keep her company.�
�I don�t know,� Nickolas said. �I�m sure she wants to be alone right now.�
�Nicky, just go,� Howard said. �It�s obvious you want to.�
�Fine,� Nickolas said walking to the bathroom. �But nothing�s going to happen.�
�Sure it ain�t,� the other three said and laughed, as Venus dealt the cards.

Nickolas knocked on the bathroom door then heard Sunshine say, �Its open.� He opened the door and found Sunshine sitting on the sink. He walked in and closed the door behind him, as Sunshine said, �Nick, what are you doing in here? Is nature calling?�
�Oh, no,� Nickolas said. �Danielle said I should come in. But I don�t know why.�
�Is Kevin always late?�
�He tries not to be.� He didn�t look at her. �But I thought this was just as friends?�
�It is.� Nickolas smiled, but still didn�t look at her. �My name�s Sunshine not Medusa so you won�t turn to stone.� He looked at her.
�What do ya mean?�
�You can look at me. I won�t poke your eyes out for it.�
�Sorry.�
�That�s alright. I�m use to it.� He started rubbing his shoulder.
�I didn�t mean that way�I just�� She just smiled, as he looked at her again.
�Come here.�
�What?�
�Turn around. I was told I give good massages.� He did as she requested.
�By who?� She started massaging his shoulders and he ignored the aching that was already rushing through his body.
�My girls.�
�They were right. That feels so good.� She smiled and continued. �So if I ever need a massage I�ll just come to you.�
�I might start charging.�
�I don�t care.�
�You wouldn�t be able to afford me.�
�How do you know?� She stopped and he turned around to face her.
�Because you won�t.� They both just looked at each other and knew right away what the other was thinking.
�So what�d you want to ask me the other night?� She bit her bottom lip and they leaned closer.
�I just wanted�� Their lips touched before she could finish and he got his answer. She took his face in her hands, as they continued kissing. They pulled apart about a moment later and just looked at each other. �Wow!� They smiled and kissed again putting their arms around each other. Sunshine held him closer and put her legs around his waist, as she felt his arousal. She didn�t care though. She just wanted to kiss him. That�s all she wanted to do from the second they met at that gas station. She was getting her wish now and she wasn�t about to ruin it over some stupid erection from Nickolas. She actually liked it though. She didn�t know that one kiss from her would get a guy so excited like that. �Mmm�� They held each other tighter and Nickolas ran his tongue along her lips. Sunshine gladly opened her mouth and Nickolas slipped his tongue inside. They started caressing each others tongue and the bathroom door opened a few seconds later.
�Sunnie Jo, Kevin�s�� Danielle paused a second then continued, �here.� Nickolas and Sunshine ended their kiss and smiled.
�Right,� Sunshine said not taking her gaze from Nickolas. �Kevin�s here. I should go.� She wanted to kiss him, but controlled herself.
�Yeah, maybe ya should,� Nickolas agreed. �Ya wouldn�t want to disappoint.�
�Sunn, he�s waiting,� Danielle said.
�Let me finish here,� Sunshine said smiling at Nickolas. They looked at each other and Nickolas kissed her again. �I didn�t disappoint did I?�
�Hell no,� Nickolas said, as they both smiled wanting to kiss again.
�Will you put that magazine down?� Danielle ordered and looking out at the others. �She�s reading.�
�Let her finish,� Kevin said.
�She is finished,� Danielle stated. �Come on, Sunn.�
�I�m coming,� Sunshine said smiling at Nickolas. They looked at each other then Sunshine walked out of the bathroom. Sunshine walked over to Kevin with Danielle standing at the bathroom watching.
�I�m sorry I�m late,� Kevin said. �But I stopped to get this.� He held up a flower.
�A yellow rose,� Sunshine said taking it. �It�s beautiful.�
�Like you,� Kevin replied kissing her cheek at the same time Nickolas walked out of the bathroom. Nickolas glared at him, as Sunshine remembered the kiss she just shared with Nickolas. �Shall we go?�
�I guess,� Sunshine said handing the rose to Venus and picking up her jacket. �I�ll be back later.�
�Ok,� Venus said, as Sunshine and Kevin went out the door.
�He got to her first,� Danielle said to Nickolas.
�But I kissed her first,� Nickolas pointed out smiling. �And she said it�s only friends.�
�Remember what I said, Nick,� Danielle began, �it won�t last long.� Nickolas just looked at her and she pulled him over to the table with the others.
