Disclaimer: oh, come on, you should already know this!

A/N: In this chapter, Ben goes to Rachael's, Rachael goes to Ben's, and Christian enters and sees… la la la. You'll find out if you start reading!! OH, yeah, I think I'll start doing different characters POV. It makes it easier for me. Ok, I'm done so read and REVIEW!!!





~~~~~~~Ben's POV~~~~~~~

I wonder why Rachael wants to see me? I wonder if she wonders why I wondered that I didn't tell her I loved her? Whoa, I just confused myself! Ok, well maybe I should shut up and knock.

There I stood, if front of her door, motionless. Why didn't I knock? Oh god, I was nervous. Why? Ok, Ben, take a deep breath…

I knocked. Nothing. No voice no movement. I knocked again. Then I heard a faint "WHAT?!" Ok so it wasn't that faint!

The door opened and there was Rachael in nothing but a small corset. She was beautiful. Just look at those legs!! They were nice and long and… Ok, stop staring Ben.

"Umm, Zidler said you wanted to see me?" I told her. She nodded, took a step backwards and almost fell over. "Are you ok?" I asked her. Then I noticed a glass filled with a green drink in her hand. Absinthe. She was drunk. Then she hiccupped.

"Whoops!" she said. "I feel a little…fai…nt. So, what…do you wanna do?"

"I thought you would know?"

"Oh? Well…I dunno. How about some…ab…absinthe?" she hiccupped.

"How about no. How much have you had?" She held up the bottle and I noticed a little more than half of it was gone. "Rachael!"

"I don't feel…so gre…gra… well!"

"No wonder! You had half a bottle of this stuff?! In one sitting?!" I noticed she looked a little green. "Rachael? Are you sure you're…"

I never finished my sentence because Rachael went, "ACKKKKK!" and threw up all over my shirt.

"AHHHHHHH! EWWWW! RACHAEL THAT'S GROSS!!" My shirt was covered in her puke and unsurprisingly, it was green.

Then we heard a knock on the door.

"Rachael?"





~~~~~~~Rachael's POV~~~~~~~

"Rachael?" It was Marie. Shoot, if she found me drunk, she and Harold would throw me out onto the streets! "Rachael? We have a show to do in one hour! You need to get your costume on!"

I was doomed. Any second now and Marie would walk in, see me drunk and see Ben.

…Ben, he looked furious. After all, I had just thrown up on him. A great way to start a relationship.

I was so freaked out by what was happing, and being really drunk, that I passed out right on the floor.



~~~~~~~Ben's POV~~~~~~~

Rachael looked at me and passed out. Oh god. What was I supposed to do? Someone was knocking on the door, Rachael was passed out, and I, who had puke all over me, was lost as to what to do.

Surely they wouldn't want me in here. I had a sudden idea. It might not work but I had to try. I took off my shirt and threw it across the room. Then I picked Rachael up and moved her to the bed. I did all this very quickly. Lucky I did because three seconds later, Marie came into the room.

"What's going on?" she demanded. She looked around the room, noticed Rachael in bed, and me without a shirt on, and I guess thought we had been doing something.

"Uh, she's very tired," I told Marie while nodding towards Rachael.

"I could imagine. Tell her for me, she doesn't have to do the show tonight. Oh, and you can stay with her. But please, take her somewhere else. She doesn't like doing it here much."

I got the hint. Marie didn't want us doing our 'business' here where anybody could walk in. Marie must have seen this because she nodded and left the room. Now, I just had to get Rachael up and take her somewhere else. The second part was easy. I could take her to my place. But how was I going to get her up? This would take some consideration.



2 HOURS LATER:

~~~~~~~Rachael's POV~~~~~~~

My head hurt really badly. I tried to sit up, but I couldn't and ended up sinking back to the bed. Bed? Whose bed? I thought I passed out on the floor. I opened my eyes a bit and realized I was only wearing a corset and that this wasn't my place. Where was I?

I heard someone whistling softly. Then Ben came into the room, wearing no shirt. Ben? What's he doing here? Why isn't he wearing a shirt? Does this mean I'm at his place?

"How do you feel?" Ben asked me. He obviously realized I was awake.

"My head hurts…a lot," I told him.

"That's to be expected. After all, you were quite drunk. Well, at least I needed to clean that shirt anyway."

"What?" I didn't know what he was talking about. Then I remembered. Throwing up…on him…Marie…Marie! Did she find me? What had happened?

"What happened?" I asked him.

"Well, Marie came in the room and told me to take you somewhere else, so I brought you here."

"Why did she tell you that?" And Ben proceeded to tell me what had happened.

"She actually thought we had been doing something?" I laughed. Ben nodded. "No offense, but I can't imagine us actually doing it."

"You can't? Even though we almost did one time?"

"You know we cant, you don't have any money!"

"Who cares about money! You said yourself we were going to pretend that I'm paying you so we could be together. But, I don't see us together yet."

"Well…you haven't tried to get me in bed yet!"

"Well, I never see you and the first time I did when we could, you were drunk!"

"But I'm not now and I don't see you making any moves whatsoever!"

"Who says I'm not?"

"You aren't! We're just sitting here fighting when we could be doing more interesting things!"

"Who says I don't fight with girls before I try to make moves on them?"

"Who says you ever even been with a girl before?!"

"…That was mean," Ben said sadly. "I'm not going to kiss you now."

"Oh, darn, biggest disappointment of my life," I said sarcastically.

"Don't get sarcastic with me missy."

"Missy? Me? What a sense of no humor!"

"Ever look in a mirror and say that?"

"Do you even own a mirror?"

"I'm not that poor!"

I was quiet for a second. "Why do we always end up arguing?"

"Because…we want to do it so badly, but we're too scared to start, so that's how we pass time."

"I'm not too scared to start," I said. (A/N: sex scene interlude *hehe*)

"Oh yeah? Prove it," Ben challenged. So I leaned into him and kissed him. It was one of the best kisses ever. I wanted more of him. Involuntarily, my tongue went to pry open his lips…success. I was now exploring his mouth, and he mine. It was almost too much. I couldn't believe it…



~~~~~~~Ben's POV~~~~~~~

She forced her tongue into my mouth. I didn't expect that so soon. I never really learned how to kiss like this. Granted, she had been right in saying I had never been with someone before. This feeling I had was absolute heaven though. Then, without warning, she pulled back.

"Hey! Why'd you stop?" I asked.

She grinned and said, "How's that for starting? I didn't expect you to be able to kiss like that, Ben!"

"Me either! I've never gone, uh, farther then that. In fact that's the most I've ever done." I said sheepishly. Why do I have to always sound so stupid in front of her?!

"It's ok, I can teach you."

"This will be the most exciting class ever." Then, we kissed again.



~~~~~~~Normal POV~~~~~~~

A few hours and a couple orgasms later (A/N: sorry to all the perverts, but no description of the actual event. Use your imagination people!):

Rachael and Ben were both worn out. That had been one of the most exciting nights of their lives. They had curled up together in his bed and tried to sleep a little.

At about 5:00 that morning, Ben woke up. He noticed Rachael beside him lying on her front. He started to stroke her bare back gently. She woke up, and noticed him.

"Morning," she said while smiling.

"Morning," he said back.

Then the door burst open and Christian rushed in (again). He looked over at them and all three screamed at the same time.

"CHRISTIAN!!!" screamed Rachael.

"OH MY GOD!!!" screamed Christian.

"THIS TIME YOU DID WALK IN ON SOMETHING!!!" Ben screamed. To make matters worse, Satine had happened to be with Christian and also entered the room.

"RACHAEL!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" she screamed.

"WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M TRYING TO DO??!!" she screamed back.

"EVERYBODY OUT UNTIL I GET SOME PANTS ON!" Ben bellowed. And Christian and Satine scrambled out the door. Ben and Rachael quickly tried to find their clothes and get them back on.

When they were done, Ben opened the door. Christian and Satine were still there.

"Is it safe yet?" asked Satine.

"Yes," replied Ben. So Christian and Satine came into Ben's room. "So, did you need something Christian?"

"Uh, yeah, I just wanted to let you know that we do have practice every day and to make sure you are there. You too, Rachael."

"And don't let on anything about this little 'incident' to Harold," said Rachael.

"Well, obviously," said Satine. Then without warning, the two girls cracked up laughing and giggling and started to turn red. Ben and Christian were confused.

"What's so funny?" demanded Ben.

"This whole thing!" laughed Rachael.

"What do you mean?" asked Christian.

"It's a girl thing, I doubt you'd get it," giggled Satine. Ben and Christian rolled their eyes at each other.

"Well, look at the time!" exclaimed Rachael. "I better go home! Bye everyone." Rachael went to Ben and gave him a big kiss that left him blushing. "Love you," she told him.

"Love you more," he told her and she grinned happily.





A/N: Isn't that sweet? He finally said that he loved her, to her face. Well, what did you think LET ME KNOW ALREADY!!

Let's see—people who have reviewed, here's something special just for you!! Yay!!

Sparkling Diamond Satine — big pants? No not quite. Anyway, you seem to be a faithful reviewer and I thank you. Your own stories are good too. About the "huge talent" part, I find that hilariously funny too, prolly why I put it in! It's all in good fun!

Deisseida – well, the big plans are starting, just so you know, I still have to work up the others. I was hoping someone would really want them to get together, and you did (THANKS!!!)

Stupidbooger() – I probably already said that, but I wanted to be different with spelling (I'm just a freak like that!) But yes I realize most tend to spell it R-A-C-H-E-L instead of with another "A". Oh, well (sighs)

Crystal187 – I am continuing with the writing! Are you continuing with the reading?

I believe that's it. If you review, I'll post your name!! I want some more reviews, they are nice, they are wonderful, they rock, and they keep my story alive. So in other words: not reviewing=death to not only Satine, but also Ben and Rachael! AHHHHH!!! But if you review, you keep them alive and they are eternally grateful to you. Well, at least I am.
