• Driving down the strip. Where are you? He wasn't out prowling - in fact, he'd been running some errands - the draw of the lights and music had been too much for him though - he planned on stopping to get one drink, and then he'd more than likely seek her out.

• Bored out of my mind at Sparx She smiled a bit before she reached across the bar and grabbed a magazine, flipping through it absently as she waited for his reply. Things had been good betwen them the past week or so, just working on casually building their relationship little by little, hour by hour. They were definately taking things slow, which was more him then her, she got the feeling sometimes that he was afraid of her breaking beneath his attentions. (NT) -- Selen, 09:07:17 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He grinned a little to himself, deftly thumbing in the words as he drove, his dark eyes darting between road and phone. Excellent, I'll be there in 5. He tucked the phone back down between the seats and gunned the gas a little, excited to see her. (NT) -- Dallas, 09:09:08 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She smiled at that, nodding a bit though he couldn't see her before she shifted a bit, flipping through the magazine though her brow furrowed suddenly as she saw a picture and then the headline Brown's Anxiously awaited Return coming soon? the artiicle went on to describe his rowdy life, his time off and his much talked about return. Her brow furrowed softly, confused and a little thrown off.... (NT) -- Selena, 09:16:35 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He made an entrance. Of course he made an entrance - he wasn't much for being obscure - he never had been - of course in this little podunk place, not many people recognized him outside of his madd dance skills and all that manner of thing. He strode in, making his way toward the bar, spotting her with a smile. (NT) -- Dallas, 09:27:34 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She wasn't looking behind her so she didn't see him and of course she didn't hear anything, she was completely focused on the article in front of her - her expession a mixture of confusion at the maybe possibility of a misunderstanding, shock at the reality of it, and a little bit of anger that he hadn't told her. (NT) -- Selena, 09:31:28 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He wandered up behind, winding his arms around her waist and pressing a kiss to her sweet smelling hair, inhaling the scent of her, reveling in the familiar feel of her - he didnt say anything though, she wouldn't have heard - and he didn't even notice the magazine. (NT) -- Dall, 09:37:12 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She let out a soft breath, her brow furrowed as she turned around to see him - her eyes and expression showing off every one of the emotions that were running through her. Silently she handed him the magazine, her pretty brow furrowed. (NT) -- Selena, 09:42:21 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• His heart dropped nearly to his toes when he saw it and he stiffened - something was definitely wrong here. He took the magazine away from her and stared hard - the picture was definitely him, there was no way he could talk his way out of this one - apparantly him being gone was a hot topic. He frowned and looked over at her, his lips pursed. (NT) -- Dall, 09:44:22 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She frowned softly, her brow furrowed as she let out soft breath, shaking her head. "I don't...I don't understand..." She murmured, her voice soft as she let out a little uncomfortable breath. (NT) -- Selena, 09:46:48 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He looked her square on, wrinkling the magazine in his hand, and touched her elbow lightly with his free hand. "Maybe we need to talk." He gestured with a tip of his head toward the door. (NT) -- Dall, 09:48:01 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She sighed softly, letting him lead her out to wherever he wanted to go, her mind trying work out all of this. According to the article he was beyond promiscious, a party boy with drug and alcohol problems, that didn't sound like the man she was falling for. (NT) -- Selena, 09:57:28 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He guided her toward the door, his movements slow and stodgy while he stalled for time to let his mind make up some sort of decent excuse other than ignorance or amnesia, but he couldn't seem to come up with anything. He guided her to the low brick wall just outside, bathed in the amber glow of a streetlight, and took one more look at the article, taking a long, deep breath as he composed himself. (NT) -- Dallas, 09:59:57 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• Her brow furrowed as she watched, trying to make sense things but she couldn't. "Is that...is that all true? What they said about you?" She stated off the 'talk' with her straightforward question. (NT) -- Selena, 10:01:20 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He swallowed hard and looked up to meet her eyes - it wasn't because he felt horrible about his past, which although it was true was not the main basis for his hiding it from her and worrying so much about this conversation now - it was that he felt like he would rather die than hurt her, and he knew this was going to hurt her - this part of his life that he'd held back, out of her reach for all of this time. "I won't lie to you - that's me and everything they say in here is true, in fact that's just the tip of the iceberg." (NT) -- Dallas, 10:04:49 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She dropped her eyes, letting out a soft breath as she nodded. "Oh..." She frowned softly, taking the magazine from him and scanning the article, taking in the sorrid details with a trouble gaze. (NT) -- Selena, 10:08:03 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He pinned one corner of his lower lip between his canines, rubbing his thumb and forefinger together nervously as he watched her read it. "I'm sorry, Selena." But his words seemed so weak against the gravity of the lie that he'd told her. (NT) -- Dallas, 10:09:17 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She didn't see his apolagy before she looked up, her brow still furrowed. "Is this you then?" she questioned, a little light of fire in her eyes that was so rarely there. "Is the person you are with me just another part your playing?" She handed him back the magazine, her arms crossed underneath her chest. (NT) -- Selena, 10:11:16 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• "This is me... this right now, that's sitting here, that's looking at you - that's falling in love with you, this is me. That's just a part of me that was in the past." He didn't know if she was catching all of this, he was speaking quickly and with a great deal of emotion. (NT) -- Dallas, 10:13:30 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She sighed softly at his words, she wanted so badly to be furious at him for this, but it was so hard with that confession out there. "It said there that you were hollywood's little lover boy, no relationship over six months and that was the absolute longest...I've known you for about five now." She stated softly, rubbing her hands over her chilled arms. (NT) -- Selena, 10:18:13 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He didn't want to sound like some cheesy page out of a romance novel but that's exactly what the next words out of his mouth were. "But you're different - those girls don't make me feel the way that you do." (NT) -- Dallas, 10:24:30 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She sighed softly, running her hand down her face slowly. she didn't know what to believe right now, everything else had been an act and really, he made a living by pretending to be something he wasn't, this could be the same thing for him. (NT) -- Selena, 10:26:53 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• At least she wasn't screaming - that was a good sign anyways. "I'm sorry that I didn't tell you about... this..." He gestured to the magazine article. "It's just that for once someone didn't know, and didn't care who I was and how much money I made and what movies I had starred in... someone liked me and wanted to spend time with me for who I was not what I was - and that made it hard to tell you." (NT) -- Dallas, 10:39:50 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She sighed softly, shaking her head. "It's not about any of that though, its not about that your famous or you have money or that your some big sex symbol. It's just that I am some boring little handicapped girl and your used to this fast track LA life where you drink and do drugs and have any beautiful model you want..." She shook her head, looking away from him, letting out a soft breath. She couldn't handle this, she didn't understand why he was even looking at her, why wasn't he going back to the life he had loved so much? (NT) -- Selean, 10:48:09 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• "'Lena.." He frowned and took her chin in his fingers lightly, turning her face to look back at him. "'Lena, if that's what I wanted, I would be back there by now. Obviously what I want is here, right now, or I wouldn't be here." (NT) -- Dallas, 10:50:55 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She sighed softly, shrugging her shoulders as she gazed up at him, her dark eyes sad and resigned. "Until you get bored again." She murmured softly, her eyes on him for a moment before she cleared her throat. "You'll miss being a star...." (NT) -- Selena, 10:58:24 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• "Acting is my career, Selena... of course I'll miss being a star - and of course I'll do movies, but that has nothing to do with you and I or my romantic track for that matter." He watched her carefully, his dark eyes concerned. (NT) -- Dallas, 11:00:48 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She shrugged a bit again before she shook her head. "I need to go talk to Kathy, she's going to wonder where I went too..." and she needed to think for awhile, she was overwhelmed. (NT) -- Selena, 11:06:31 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• He again reached for her elbow, and looked her straight on. "I want you to know that I am the person that you got to know - the only difference now is that you know what my profession and my past are like, but you know who I am right now, and that is all that is important." (NT) -- Dallas, 11:07:57 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She felt like she was going to cry, she didn't want to deal with this. She just wanted to go to the happy ignorant bliss she had been in before she had found who he was. Now the thought of when he was going to get tired of her and her mundane life was all that was clouding her mind. (NT) -- Selena, 11:12:32 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• His brow furrowed a little as he watched her - he knew that his worldliness and her naivity would cause disastrous results when they came head to head, but it had been easy enough when they were pretending. "Selena.." (NT) -- Dallas, 11:16:32 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She shook her head, brushing her hand over her eyes to try and attempt to hide the shine of tears, clearing her throat. "I am fine, Dall...really...just..a lot to think about.." She offered a shaky smile, really trying not to be a big baby. (NT) -- Selena, 11:17:56 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• "It's a big deal, and it would be okay if you weren't fine, because this is a big thing that I've been hiding - I just figured... we're so happy... with the way that things are.." Why change them? He wasn't particularly rational. (NT) -- Dallas, 11:19:59 09/16/04 Thu

  ---

• She shook her head, gaze lingering on him for a long moment. "I just wish that you had told me before this Dallas, its just hard with finding out like this. I feel ridiculous, like everyone knew except for me - like it was a big joke on Selena.' (NT) -- Selena, 02:08:36 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• He sighed a little and shifted, tipping his head toward her. "It was just nice to know that you were genuine and sincere - that you didn't know about my money and so therefore you couldn't be after me for me to blow cash on you.., " (NT) -- Dallas, 05:46:46 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• That brought a small frown to her face, her brow furrowed as a flash of hurt entered her dark eyes. "You think I am the kind of person who would be like that?" She questioned softly, if he did, then he really didn't know her at all and that just added to the hurt she was already feeling. (NT) -- Selena, 05:51:39 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• "No, no..." He reached out gently and touched her elbow lightly, "I don't think you're like that at all, but I didn't know at first, Selena.. and then it got too far, and I didn't think I could come out with it now." (NT) -- Dallas, 05:57:06 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• She sighed softly, shaking her head as she gazed at him. "Now I just...feel...inferior, Dallas." She bit her lip, her brow furrowed heavily as she shook her head. "I mean, you've been with all these beautiful...model like girls and then there's me...I'm no one, definately no one worth risking your career for." (NT) -- Selena, 06:14:26 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• He frowned and sniffed a bit as he watched her and then shook his head firmly. "I was risking my career with that." He gestured to a posted picture of him with a girl on each arm and a cigarette dangling from his lips - the trio were obviously intoxicated. (NT) -- Dallas, 06:18:11 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• She looked down for a long moment before she shook her head, handing him the magazine and taking a step back. "I am just really...not your type, Dallas." She bit her lip, fighting back tears but she shook her head firmly. "I am sorry." She shifted to slip away from him, glancing across the road before she jogged back into the club and away from him and the heart ache he provided. (NT) -- Selena, 06:20:55 09/20/04 Mon

  ---

• Somewhere in the back of hs head he registered that she had gone, but he still sat dumbfounded, watching her walk away, his hands clasped numbly together between his knees, the magazine dropped to the sidewalk and sticking to it's dampness. He blinked once, then twice, as if he couldn't fathom what was going on, and then he rose - he didn't know what he could do. (NT) -- Dallas, 06:22:36 09/20/04 Mon
