"Two girls having some fun."
We can barely keep our hands away from each other, as we make our way towards my apartment. We keep giggling like silly, horny teenagers. We rush up the stairs so fast that we actually miss my floor, and we...
"A struggling student moonlighting as an exotic dancer takes on a student of her own"
Bree cleaned off her makeup and hung up her costume, if tear-away clothing could be so classified. She shoved the business card from the ‘cop’ into the pocket of her jeans and clocked out. It was raining cats and dogs...
"Rachel and Sami get closer"

"Lynn wonders about the woman in the audience, as she sings How High the Moon."
