Chapter Two
"Do you... want to talk about it?" Manny asked nervously.
"Uh no" Darcy said, changing the channel. "Do you watch General Hospital?"
"Yeah, it 's like the best soap opera besides One Life to Live" Manny said, closing the magazine.
"Oh really" Darcy said, her interest piqued. "So tell me what's so good about One Life to Live"
Manny moved closer to Darcy, crossing both legs. "Uh hello, Starr and Cole. Do you not know?"
"Duh, that's why I'm asking" Darcy said, rolling her eyes.
"Well. Starr and Cole are like the cutest couple along with Langston and Markko" Manny mused. "But now there's some serious drama going on with Starr, I mean after um... Cole attacked her, her dad forbid them to see each other. Her dad has totally gone on the war path like if Cole would stop by and request to see her -- Todd's bodyguard would kindly escort him out the door"
"Wow. That's sad. So what happened to Starr exactly?" Darcy asked curiously.
"Uh, she's preggers. And the only person she really has to count on anymore is Langston" Manny said softly.
"Oh, oh. And when Langston found out she wanted to get an abortion she got really upset" Darcy said.
"Yeah" Manny said, curling her lips into a smile. "And you said you didn't watch it. Liar"
Manny laughed hitting Darcy in the arm playfully. "Hey"
"Ow" Darcy rubbed her arm.
"Manny are you doing anything on this weekend" Darcy asked, trying not to sound to hopeful.
"No... why?" Manny asked curiously, flicking through the tv channels.
"I thinking about going to the movies" Darcy said, reading a article in a magazine.
"Yeah... and" Manny said sardonically.
"Well do you want to come with me?" Darcy asked, tapping her hand on the bed.
"Mmm hm" Manny nodded. "So, what are we going to seeing?"
"How about..." Darcy began, pondering through a small selection of movies in her mind. "What happens in Vegas"
"Awesome. I hear Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz are in it" Manny said happily.
