Part 4 – What Now?
"What do we do now?"
Maggie's question hung in the air, causing yet another silence to blanket Kendall's bedroom.
"What do you mean?" Kendall asked, getting up quickly without any attempt to hide her current state of nudity. She figured that since Maggie had at one point or another seen her naked the other night there was no point in trying for modesty.
For a few seconds, Maggie lost her ability to speak. She knew Kendall was gorgeous, she just never realized how gorgeous Kendall was without her clothes on.
"We slept together." Maggie pointed out stupidly, not knowing what else to say. It didn't help that Kendall was currently walking around the room, naked. Maggie couldn't help but admire Kendall's physique and how proportional Kendall's body was. Snapping out of her not-so-innocent thoughts, Maggie attempted to rectify her words. "I mean, usually there's some explanation that's due afterwards or at least a talk of some sort."
"Is that what you think we need? A talk?" Kendall asked. If anything she needed lots and lots of time on a shrink's sofa. Here she was, naked like the day she was born, with the hangover from hell and to top it off she had slept with the woman her baby sister was in love with.
Blinking, Maggie was a little thrown by Kendall's off-handedness. The concept of a one night stand wasn't something Maggie was particularly an expert in but she just couldn't believe how cold Kendall was being.
"I think it may help." Was Maggie's meek reply.
Kendall didn't take a moment to consider her words; she had had her own share of one night stands before to know when to kick them out before things could get messy. She had made a mistake in making her latest one night stand be with someone she knew personally and who knew people she did. "Maggie, we were drunk and we slept together. And since I can't remember any of it, it must not have been that memorable. It was a drunken mistake that we really don't need to revisit." Kendall explained with a non-caring attitude that left Maggie confused and more than a little hurt.
Maggie still couldn't grasp just how someone could be so harsh and uncaring after sharing the night that they did. Okay, given that neither of them remembered any of the night's activities it didn't mean it made it any less special to Maggie.
Unknown to Kendall, Maggie had only slept with two people in her entire life. Henry and now, god help her, Kendall Hart. Maggie may not seem like it most of the time, given her late sister's reputation that seemed to follower her still to this day and the fact that Maggie was always seen as the steady rock in her friendships; but when it came to love, Maggie wore her heart on her sleeve. When Maggie shared a bed with someone, she wanted it to mean something important and be something special. Not some simple one night stand.
"A mi…mistake?" Maggie sputtered, getting up as well but still shielding herself with the bed sheets tightly wrapped around her naked form.
"Yes, plain and simple." Kendall replied, going to her closet and pulling out a silk robe. Wrapping it around her, she continued to walk around with Maggie following behind her.
"So, the fact that we spent the night together and slept together meant nothing to you?" Maggie asked, wanting the brunette to clarify.
"God, Maggie! Yes! How many times do you need to ask? Yes, it meant nothing. Haven't you ever just slept with someone for the hell of it?" Kendall didn't even bother to turn around.
"No, I actually haven't! But apparently you have, I just wish I had known before I came here." Maggie muttered the last part under her breathe, glad the older woman hadn't heard her. She had seen the wrath of mamma Kane and a small part of it in Bianca on a few occasions; she could only imagine what Kendall was capable of.
"Look." Kendall stopped in the doorway of her bathroom, her back to Maggie who barely stopped herself from bumping into Kendall and knocking them both over.
"We spent some time together; we had a few drinks and then slept together. That does not a relationship make. Just enjoy it, don't try to make it out to be more than it was."
"But…"
"I expect you to be gone when I'm finished with my shower." Kendall's voice implied that there would be no argument from Maggie's side.
With those parting words, Maggie came face to face with Kendall's bathroom door as it was slammed in her face. "Damn."
To be continued…
