Kyla was about to reply when Ashley finally just snapped. She knew deep down this was the time to try and explain things calmly to Glen, to make it right with him and Kyla both, but she just couldn’t. Not while she was fighting old demons she thought she had lain to rest. So without another word she walked out the kitchen and then the front door.

***************

Spencer watched with amusement as Madison sat on the chair opposite her. They were waiting for Kyla to show up at the boutique where the final fitting was to be held. She was already a few minutes late, but if she looked and felt anything like Madison than Spencer would forgive her for it. The normally vivacious Latina was sitting slumped on her chair with her sunglasses firmly in place. She’d been main lining coffee the whole morning and even though she was on her fourth cup, she still looked half dead.

“So you went home with a stripper. That’s knew.”

Spencer tried hard to keep the amusement from her voice, but it was hard. Madison really looked bad, but in that funny as hell kind of way.

“Hm…yeah, Mitch was nice. Or was it Matt…Mick maybe? I didn’t really catch his name this morning, but I have his number. I think I may actually give him a call later.”

Spencer just raised her eyebrows at this. Madison did not really do one night stands surprisingly enough, but Spencer thought the stripper was just that. A one night stand.

“Really? You’re thinking of actually like…dating a stripper.”

Spencer did not want to sound judgmental, because she honestly wasn’t, she realized that it did not mean he was like a prostitute or anything. He was just dancing for a living. With very little to no clothes on.

“Well, I mean we could go for coffee. That’s not really dating, that’s just coffee. Coffee’s a friendly drink enjoyed by friends. Nothing serious.”

Spencer nodded her head smiling.

“So you want to be friends with this guy?”

Madison gave a small sigh.

“Fine, he rocked my world last night and I want to see him again. It’s not a crime to like someone.”

Spencer nodded her head and gave another smile. Madison deserved a little happiness and if it came in the form of a hot stripper? Why the hell not. She could not wait to tell Ashley though, she would get a kick out of it.
