Starlight had to wait until Friday evening to know what Blink told Rose. Around six, after dinner, Rose called her to talk.
"Yeah Rose, what is it?"
"You will have only one customer for the whole night and tomorrow also." Starlight looked confused.
"What? Who?"
 "Blink. He asked me when he came here with you this week."
"That's insane!!! Where did he get this much money?! Is he going to eat nothing for the next month and sleep in the street?!"
"Don't ask me!" Rose shrugged and went away, yelling "Will you finally change?!" back towards the girls, while she walked up in her room and changed in her own working clothes.

Around eight that evening, Morris came in the house to talk with Rose and Starlight paused while going down the stairs to listen. "Hey Rose, I want Some time with the black hair tonight. How about midnight till one?"

"I'm sorry, but Star is already bought for the whole night."
"What!" Morris wasn't happy about this. "Then what about tomorrow?"

"The same!"
"Don't play with me Rose. You don't really want to tell me that she is already bought for the whole weekend! The next you'll tell me it's the same guy for tomorrow as for today."
"It is" she just said. Morris growled.
" Which bastard is that?!" He murmured as he left. Starlight walked downstairs and sighed happily to be too busy for that bum.

"Hey Star, this was really your lucky day!" Rose smiled at her. She could tell from Star's face that she had heard Morris. Starlight just nodded. Her thoughts drifted to another way.
Did Blink know this was going to happen? NO, that's impossible!

Starlight had changed but not in the way Rose thought. She wore black pants and a dark-red shirt. She sat on the fire escape smoking a cigarette. Jenny walked up behind her. She wore a violet colored dress.

"Anyone seen yet?"

"If 'anyone' is Race, then no, I haven't seen him yet." She looked down to see Blink and Race walk up to the house and nodded in their direction.

"There is your 'sweetheart'."

"Don't talk bullshit. He isn't my sweetheart and he will never be! No guy would want to be with a whore. Especially not one that is as gorgeous like him!"

"Then why does he always come here to be with you?"

"Why does Blink come here?" she counteracted. "Because I always want the best things." She smiled when she remembered.

"Ask him. Come on. We have to go." She headed inside and the two of them waited at the stairs for Race and Blink.

The two came up to them and Race and Jenny headed to their usual room.

"Hey Star, new clothes?" Blink observing her body.

"I have to talk to you before…" They went in Star's room and Blink lay down on the bed looking up at the ceiling, his arms under his head.

Star stood still at the door leaning with her back on it. She looked at him and wondered if he really had known. So she just asked him.

"Why did you want me for the whole night. And also tomorrow night?" Blink looked at her.

"Can't I just want some more fun with you?" She just gave him a blank expression. "Don't lie to me Blink! You knew that Morris would come this weekend." Blink sat up on the bed.

"So what if I did?"

"Why? Are you insane?! I know you can't afford this weekend when you want to eat and sell on Monday. So why?!"

"I heard Morris talking to Oscar when I got my papers on Wednesday morning. He told him that he was in the "Blue Rose" and that he had this gorgeous black hair girl here. What did he said…..oh yeah, that you wasn't as good as you could have been. But that he knew ways to make you more… fun for him."

"That doesn't explain…"

"I don't think his thoughts about fun are the same that mine are. And I wouldn't like him to change anything about you." Starlight walked up to him, standing just inches away from him.

"And why is this so? Blinkie." He glared at her.

"Because. Just because." Star sat slowly down on his lap. Facing him. Her knees on the bed.

"Just because?" She leaned over kissing his neck while she took off his vest.

"Why are you so… nice tonight?"

"Because I don't like to be with Morris for even five minutes. Not to speak of more. So I have to thank you for rescuing me. Don't I?" She asked when she pulled away, letting her fingers run over his chest.

"Just tell me, how will you afford me and your own life?"

"Let's just say, Race isn't as good in poker as he believes he is. And I'm thinking of having you every night next month!" Star stopped in her move. She opened her mouth to say something but couldn't find the right words.

Blink began to kiss her neck while he held her by her hips. She leaned her head back and closed her eyes. Her fingers began to unbutton the well known shirt that Blink wore and let it fall to the floor. She laid her hands on his shoulder while he kissed every inch that wasn't covered from her shirt. Star slowly opened her eyes and smiled at him. She pushed him back slightly so Blink was lying down. He pulled Star close to him and began to nibble at her earlobe. His fingers ran over her arm up to her face. He let them run over her soft lips.

"Please let me kiss you. Just one time." He begged and Star had to chuckle. It was the same game every time.

"You know that no one kisses these lips." So he let his fingers wander down her side and under her shirt. Her skin was soft and he began to stroke her breast while he kissed her neck again.

Star unbuttoned her shirt. She couldn't wait to feel his lips on her whole body. Blink respected her choice to not lip contact so he enjoyed it to kiss every other inch of her body. And so did she. By now, Blink's lips went down from her neck and he began to suck on her nipple like a baby. His hands wandered down to her waist and he lay on top of her, pulling her close when a soft sigh came out of her mouth. Blink kissed her breast while he began to unbutton her pants. Seconds past, and he saw a fully naked Star in front of him. His breath became heavy. He began to explore her body with his fingers and his lips. Starlight lay back in the pillows and closed her eyes enjoying every moment. She already let him have more of herself than she let have other guys. No other guy was allowed to kiss even one single spot of her, but Blink was just so, so, … She couldn't find the words she was looking for. She opened her eyes when Blink stopped, letting chills run through her body. Blink was taking off the last of his clothes. He lay on top of her again. This time without the disruptive pants….
