AN: ok to the guest reviewer who said begging for reviews was off putting. Quite frankly I don't beg for reviews, asking readers to review my work to make myself a better writer is not begging, and if you consider that begging then fine I'm begging.

Rant over... Well short rant over

So this chapter i still short, as Fridays update will be long and it will be up early hours of Saturday morning my time! I live in the UK so I'll have it up by about 3 am! Maybe earlier :) hope you like this one and I don't care what people say, I'm going to ask for reviews like they were cookies! It makes me a better writer and also helps me to move my writing along if I know people want it!

Chapter 10

Andy boldly walked through the revolving gold doors with her head held high, barging through the herd of reporters without even a second glance. Coming to the security desk, Joe recognised her and let her through. Pushing the button and waiting for the elevator she pulled put her compact mirror finally checking to see if her makeup looked ok after doing it quickly in the cab over. Seeing that her makeup wasn't smeared she put her compact in her bag and waited patiently for the elevator

"Andrea?" she heard that shilling annoying voice and cringed, Irv Ravitz, Andy tuned her head slightly and skilled bitterly

"Irv" she sniped

"What brings you to Elias-Clark?" Irv asked smugly as they got into the elevator

"My girlfriend" Andy replied

"Ahh well you will come up short you see, Miranda is out" Andy smiled it was only 10am Miranda would not have left the office unless something was wrong and in that case Andy would have heard

"Oh well I'll go and see Emily and Nigel then" Andy smiled and notice Irv's smug expression falter.

"Irv" Andy asked in a sickly sweet voice, once she has his attention she continued. "You will never get into Miranda's La Perla panties for as long as you live, she will never have you hammering away on top of her when she can have real pleasure. She doesn't need a man who will cum, roll over and die... She needs real pleasure as Miranda is a real woman... So stop being jealous and keep out of our lives or I'll make you sorry" Irv hadn't really said anything, but his looks and his innuendo towards Miranda over the years had all piled up when he had shown up downstairs.

As she was finishing her rant the doors opened at Runway and she turned to Irv

"Goodbye Irv" and without a second glance she wandered down the infamous Runway halls. She was surprised how much she had calmed down since about an hour ago, how she had managed to get her message across to Irv without losing her nerve and she had also come to realise that Miranda would understand her reaction to the reporters when she told her about her parents. Coming to Miranda's office she saw the redhead sitting at her desk and also a new blonde sitting at her old one.

"Hey Em" Andy said sweetly as she came towards her

"I hate you" Emily's first words were gritted out "Even clothes from Paris wouldn't fix this, you say you hate her, you leave her, then you fuck her? What the hell Andy?" Emily was whispering.

"Em, look I'm sorry, it wasn't meant to happen... It just" Andy said sincerely

"Whatever" Emily scornfully said and turned back to her computer. Silently walking passed her old desk and smiling towards the unknown assistant Andy walked into Miranda's main office taking a deep breath to prepare for the worst Andy cleared her throat.

Miranda who was facing the window reading her paper turned around, upon seeing her lover she skilled and placed the paper on the desk, swivelling it so the young brunette could see it.

"Hello darling, I'm just reading the morning paper" Miranda sighed and watched as Andrea leant forward and read what was being presented to her.

"Wow! At least I'm not a play thing anymore right?" Andy smirked but Miranda scoffed.

"Hah, that's better than gold digger" Miranda took the paper and threw it in the bin, motioning for Andrea to sit down she took off her glasses.

"Oh well, what do I owe the pleasure of having you in my office?" Miranda asked with a smile.

"Good news or the bad news? Because there are two bits of bad news" Andy sighed when she sat down on Miranda's chair, throwing her bag on the couch opposite.

"Hmm bad news I should think first" Miranda said worried already

"Ok... I'm telling the good news first, my parents seem to have... Adjusted? To our relationship" Miranda nodded and smiled genuinely

"Well that is good news darling!"

"Bad news is they are coming to town on Friday" Miranda gasped

"Oh"

"Yeah 'oh' they want to meet you to see if they can get over it" Andy put her head down and shifted her feet slightly nervous

"Well maybe this will help" Miranda reasoned "Now on with the actual bad news"

"Don't get angry?" Andy looked at Miranda in the eyes, pleading with her

"I promise" Miranda reached over her desk for Andreas hand and squeezed it slightly "I won't get angry"

Andy took a deep breath, calming herself before she began to speak. Her nerves obvious in her voice.

"I said something to a reporter that I shouldn't have" Andy mumbled, Miranda had to strain her ears to hear leaning closer

"What did you say?" Miranda asked calmly

"Something about you going for people with bigger balls bigger" Miranda gasped as Andy continued "And I hinted that it was amazing to fuck you" Miranda gasped again and closed her eyes.

"What did he say to provoke this?" she asked calmly as if she were talking to one of the twins

"He said 'Whats it like to fuck the dragon lady?" there was a moment of silence, Andy began to feel nervous. She knew what was going to happen now, Miranda was going to let go of her hand, stand up, phone Lesley and tell her to black list the reporter along with Andrea Sachs and then tell Emily to call security to come and get her. Oh Emily would love that. She could see her smug little-

"Andrea" Andy cringed, she hadn't even notice Miranda had moved. She was probably collecting her bag to throw it at her

"Andrea?" Miranda asked, a more worried tone to her voice "Come here" Andy opened her eyes looking over to the couch

Surprised to see Miranda sitting on the couch with her shoes off and her arms open, waiting for Andy.

Andy slowly stood up and walked towards Miranda and sat down next to her. S juggling closer to her she sighed and finally let the tears fall and Miranda just held her.

After about 15 minutes of non stop sobbing Miranda retrieved some tissues for Andy and was wiping away the tears that had began to stop falling.

"Now what are the tears for?" Miranda asked softly kissing Andy on the forehead and pulling her close once again rocking her back and forth

Andy hiccuped and snuggled further into Miranda feeling safe and wanted. She was so lucky to have Miranda and she couldn't bare the thought of losing her, the thought of losing her making her even worse she snuggled her face into Miranda's neck and breathed in that scent. The only scent that could calm and soothe her in an instant, Miranda. Chanel No.5 and a smell that was distinctly Miranda reminded her of a safe haven, home.

"I... I can't lose you" Andy stuttered out "It would kill me"

"You're not going to lose me for as long as I live my heart belongs to you love" Miranda softly ran her fingers through Andy's hair and sighed.

"I just thought with my parents and the reporter it might be too much for you" Andy pulled Miranda closer in

"Darling what you said to that reporter will be in the paper for a day, people will automatically know that you are a gutsy, fiery brunette who isn't going to take any shit from anyone" Miranda laughed "If anything you have done us a favour!" Miranda continued "And as for your parents, if they love you they will respect your decision to be with me" Miranda kissed Andy's head and pulled the younger woman back so she could see her face and smiled, kissing the rouged lips that had puffed with crying

"You okay?" Miranda asked again

Andy simply nodded and smiled

"Why don't you go home and have a nice hot bath, relax watch a movie, read a book and then I'll leave a little earlier and come home and we can order in?" Andy smiled at this and nodded.

"Thank you baby" Andy said moving forward and kissing her she stood up and looked down to Miranda

"How do I look?" she asked sceptically

"I'd say beautiful, but the press will say different. You have panda eyes darling" Miranda smiled and walked over to her desk, opening her drawer she took out make up remover and pads.

"Go into the bathroom wash it off then reapply with mine thats in there, Miranda smiled and squeezed her hand

About twenty minutes later Andy came out looking perfect again.

"I'll see you soon sweetheart" Miranda said when the two arrived at the elevator

Andy pulled Miranda into a warm embrace, kissing the older woman's neck she asked

"Can I interest you in joining me for my bath?" Miranda groaned

"I can't I have a meeting with Irv" Miranda sighed

"Oh.. Ermm about him I bumped into him on the way up" Miranda stayed silent waiting for it "He was being antsy about our relationship, and I may have made a snide remark about how he'll never have you... And how you don't need a man hammering away on top of you... You need real pleasure"

"Oh" Miranda gasped at just how those words hit her

"Could you refrain from making anymore comment when you leave the building?" Miranda asked with a kiss to Andy's lips

"Yes" Andy smiled "I promise nothing else from me" she kissed Miranda one final time and got into the elevator

"Until tonight" Andy winked as the doors closed in front of her and the elevator descended.
