Chapter 2
"Carrie, what would you say if I asked you to stay here with me?" Big asked, brushing some of her wild curls out of her eyes.
"I would say that I'm not going home for a while." Carrie grinned; she was content to just lie there with Big.
"That's not exactly what I meant. I mean, why don't you not go home, why not let here be your home?" Big asked. Carrie had to remind herself to breathe, after a year of dating Big was asking her to move in with him.
"I would like that." Carrie said, looking up at him and smiling. "Of course you know that would mean that you'd have to give me a key."
"I know. I... I love you Carrie." He said, pulling her into a kiss.
"I love you too." Carrie replied, kissing him yet again.

The coffee shop later that day.
"I've got news." Carrie exclaimed sitting down with her friends.
"What?" Charolette asked, excitedly.
"Big and I are going to live together."
"Is that all?" Miranda asked, sipping her coffee.
"What do you mean is that all? We're talking about Big here. Remember the man I had broken up with because he wouldn't say that he loved me and then again when he wouldn't commit. This is a huge deal for us." Carrie said.
"Sweetie you've been dating him for a year and he just now asked you to move in?" Samantha said in her little way, she was never one to judge; but every once and a while she would have a tone in her voice that judged every thing you did. "I mean, weren't you expecting a little more?"
"Will you three listen to me? I love Big and he loves me. Someday Big will be ready for marriage, until then I'm happy to just be with him and now I'm going to be living with him. This is a good thing." Carrie said heatedly. Her three friends sat in silence. "I have to go, I've got to start packing."
And with that Carrie stood and left. "I think she's making a mistake." Miranda commented.
"Why? If they are in love how could she be making a mistake?" Charolette asked.
"He cheats in relationships. I just don't want to see Carrie hurt." Miranda replied.
"He cheated with Carrie though." Samantha inserted into the conversation. "Now, you and I might not like Big that much." Samantha said, to Miranda. "But when was the last time you've seen Carrie this happy? I say we just support her, no matter what happens." Miranda and Charolette agreed and then the three of them went their separate ways for the day.
That's all for this chapter. Thanks everyone, I appreciate the two reviews I got. Note to Meredith: When out of money for a tip at a Chinese buffet, just write a friendly note on a napkin!! Heh heh
