Monica glanced through Cody's Rolodex as quickly as possible, sure he'd come back at any moment and catch her. Finding the card she wanted she quickly memorized the number and went back to her desk. She picked up the phone and dialed Kelly Donavan's number.

Kelly put her highlighter down and pulled her reading glasses off. She stretched quickly before picking up the phone. "Hello?"

"Kelly? It's Monica Davis. you met me last week when you brought cookies.." Kelly smiled, "Oh yeah. I remember."

"Well, I was wondering. I know you don't know me and all, but Alex . I don't think you've met her, but she works with Donovan too. anyway, Alex and I were planning on going out. letting lose. do you want to come along?" Monica asked. She saw Cody come back from grabbing his lunch and sit down at his computer. She kept her voice low, not wanting him to hear her talking to Kelly. Don't need him getting all protective and shit over her just 'cause we want to take her out, she thought.

Kelly grinned, "You don't know how good that sounds right now. I have one more final before Thanksgiving break. Could we maybe go on Wednesday? That is unless you guys have to work on Thanksgiving." She picked the highlighter up and tapped it absently against the top of her desk.

"I'll double check with Alex. but I'm sure it'll be no problem." Monica told her. "I'll call you back later."

"All right, thanks for inviting me." Kelly smiled. They said their good byes and hung up.

Monica sidled past Cody's desk to look for Alex. She found her in the gym working out with the punching bag. Monica was impressed by Alex's dedication to staying in shape. "Damn girl. I don't think it stands a chance." She laughed.

Alex stopped and grabbed her bottle water, "Oh hey."

"How do you feel about Wednesday?" Monica asked, grabbing a towel and throwing it at Alex. Alex caught it one handed and wiped her brow, "For going out? I don't care. I just need to cut loose."

"Yeah. I think we all do. Okay. Then I'll call Kelly back and say that's fine." Monica said. Alex nodded. As Monica left she could hear the sound of Alex's fists hitting the plastic of the bag again.



WEDNESDAY NIGHT

Alex sat across from Monica and Kelly at the tiny table in the corner of the bar. "Okay. what should we drink to?" She asked them.

"To finals being over." Kelly sighed.

"To beautiful men." Monica grinned. Kelly chuckled, "Okay. I'll drink to that too." The three of them lifted their shot glasses and down them simultaneously. Kelly's face contorted as the liquor burned her throat.

Alex chuckled. In an Irish accent she said, "You drink like a girl. I'll teach you to drink like a man!" Kelly looked at the woman a bit warily.

Monica laughed, "Don't mind her. she's just gets WAY too into her job." Monica made a face at Alex before they both dissolved into a fit of laughter. Kelly looked at them wide eyed. They are nothing like the girlfriends I've had in the past. Kelly raised the empty glass to her lips, licking a drop off.

Alex smiled at Monica, "I think she's thirsty. she needs more to drink."

Monica nodded, "Then we dance."

Alex waved at the waitress and called her over. Alex got a beer; Monica ordered a Cranberry and Vodka. Kelly asked them what she should get, adding, "I don't really like the taste of alcohol."

Alex looked at the waitress, "Get her a Long Island Iced Tea." To which Monica cast a glance in her direction. The waitress went away to get their drinks, and Kelly looked around the bar. Alex leaned over, "We won't let her have another one. one should be enough anyway." Monica nodded.

After the waitress brought their drinks, "It's All For You" by Janet Jackson came over the club's sound system and Kelly immediately jumped up. "Come on girls!" She pranced out to the dance floor. Alex chuckled, "She's what, 21?" Monica nodded. Alex shook her head, "That explains the . excitement."

Monica looked at her, "Do you not like her or something? You are acting strangely."

Alex stopped and turned to Monica, "Okay. I'll tell you. Carlos called me. he's out of prison."

Monica's mouth dropped open, "Did you tell Donavan?"

"No, I didn't' tell anyone. It's not like Carlos is going to do anything. I just hung up on him." Alex shrugged, "I just wanted you to know why I was in a bad mood." Monica nodded in understanding. Everyone knew how Alex felt about Carlos Cortez.

They found Kelly in a swarm of people, shaking her moneymaker. Monica giggled and joined her. Kelly spun around and jumped to the beat with Monica and Alex. They danced for three songs straight before deciding they were thirsty, not to mention tired.

"When we were walking in here, I noticed the place next door had Karaoke. we should go!" Kelly said, draining her glass.

Alex gave her a blank stare, her blue eyes literally unblinking, "I don't sing."

Monica nudged her, "You can watch. We can make fun of the bad ones."

"Yeah.that's part of the fun." Kelly laughed.

Alex rolled her eyes, "All right." They paid for the drinks and headed next door to The Fountain. The sign proclaimed KARAOKE - 7 NIGHTS A WEEK - WEEKLY CASH PRIZE. "Oooh. cash prize." Kelly whistled.

Alex shook her head; Yep this one's a lightweight!

Monica grabbed Kelly's arm and laughed with her. Alex looked at them and chuckled to herself. The karaoke bar was crowded. Kelly pulled away from Monica, "I know what I want to sing. be right back."

Monica chuckled. She turned to Alex, "She's going to sing."

"I heard." Alex said with a smirk. She looked around at the people and thought, Why would anyone want to put themselves through this torture? She walked to the bar and ordered another beer.

Kelly returned to the girls and asked the bartender for a shot "of something sweet." He winked at her and began mixing up a drink in a tiny shot glass. When he placed it on the counter she looked at it oddly. It was brown in color and was topped off with a huge dollop of whipped cream. Monica saw the look on Kelly face and snickered, "It's call a Blow Job." Kelly laughed, "No kidding?"

Alex said, "You don't drink much do you?"

Kelly shrugged, "Well, I lived with my grandmother for 2 years."

Monica and Alex both nodded, "Well, then. let us introduce you to the fine art of partying with the girls." Monica put a hand on Kelly's shoulder. "What you are supposed to do is, put your hands behind your back and then drink the shot."

Kelly giggled, "Okay. so I pick it up with my mouth." Her giggles turned into a fit of laughter, "Well. that explains the name then doesn't it." Monica and Alex joined in her laughter.

Finally, Kelly's laughter passed and she said, "Here goes nothing." She put her hands behind her back and put her mouth over the top of the shot glass. Tipping her head back she swallowed as hard as she could. She reached up and pulled the glass from between her lips and immediately began laughing hysterically. Alex handed Kelly a napkin to wipe of the liquor and whipped cream that had escaped. "Jesus. that was hard!!" Kelly gasped.

Just then, the karaoke host announced, "We've got a new singer. come on. KELLY!" Alex and Monica nudged Kelly forward and started hooting and hollering for her. She stepped up onto the stage and the music began.

Kelly didn't need the words, she just sang.

Cold late night so long ago

When I was not so strong you know

A pretty man came to me

Never seen eyes so blue

Monica looked at Alex, "Wow. she's pretty good." Alex nodded. She was listening to the words of the song. A song that made her think of Carlos.

"Come on home, girl," he said with a smile

"You don't have to love me yet

Let's get high awhile

But try to understand

Try to understand

Try try try to understand

I'm a magic man."

Soon the song was over and the people were clapping, including Monica and Alex. Kelly made her way back to them, blushing slightly from the attention. She giggled, feeling the buzz in her brain. Monica grinned and blurted, "Oh my . If Cody had heard that he would probably fall even more in love with you."

Suddenly Monica felt as if the sound had been sucked from the room as Kelly and Alex's heads turned in her direction. "What was that?" Alex asked her. Kelly was silent, but looked slightly overwhelmed. "I. didn't mean that the way it sounded.."

Kelly nodded, letting out a breath, "I'm sure you didn't. we've been drinking everything sounds wrong. right?" She put her hand on Monica's arm with a combination of surprise, pleasure, and panic on her face.

Suddenly, there was yelling from a group of people nearby. When they looked over all Alex, Kelly, and Monica saw was a herd of bodies as the group moved right into them. Kelly lost her balance and was knocked to the floor. Monica pulled her up. Alex turned and said, "Looks like a fight, let's get out of here. Stay near me!" She turned and began to push people out of their way. Monica was right behind Alex and Kelly was right behind Monica. Someone got pushed into Kelly, causing her to fall into a barstool. Then bottles started flying. From the floor, Kelly cried, "MONICA!! ALEX!!" Monica turned and saw Kelly briefly before she was pushed outside by other people trying to escape. Kelly pushed herself up, just as the guy next to her got hit over the head by a bottle. She felt a sting on her cheek and reached up. She pulled her fingers away to find blood. "ASSHOLE!!" she screamed, grabbing a glass and hurling it at him. She stepped away from him trying to head to the door.

Slowly but surely, Kelly made her way through the tussle, toward the door. She was greeted by two uniformed police officers. One of them announced, "Congratulations! Everyone inside this room is going downtown. we've got a truck and a van on their way to take you now."

"No. you don't understand, I was just." Kelly began. The officer closest to her, cut her off, "We'll clear it up at the precinct." Kelly sat down angrily.

Outside, Alex and Monica sat on the hood of Alex's car. "Where do you think they'll take her?"

Monica shrugged, "A groups that size they'll probably split up. There are three different stations in this area. she could go to either one."

Alex sighed, "Fine. you go to one, I'll go to the other, and." she looked at Monica, "Call Cody."

Two hours later, Kelly sat in a holding cell with several other bar patrons and a couple of prostitutes. One of the hookers was sitting next to Kelly filing her nails, trying to make small talk. Kelly was too embarrassed to speak to anyone, even a woman who slept with men for money. She put her feet up on the bench and rested her head on her knees.

A female officer came to the holding cell and the other prostitute who'd been pacing back and forth said, "Hey cutie. you here to pick me up?" She reached through the bars to touch Cody's jacket sleeve. The officer grabbed the hooker's arm and gave her a look of warning.

Cody looked past the woman and saw Kelly curled up against the wall. His first thought was, Kelly's wearing leather pants, which he promptly berated himself for. God man, she's in jail, could you be more inappropriate?

"Donavan!! Your ride is here!" Kelly looked up, relief washing over her face. She grinned, "CODY!!" The officer unlocked the door and let Kelly out. Cody said, "I already got your personal belongings." They headed away from the cell and the two prostitutes called after them, "Bye Cody!!"

Kelly grimaced, "Sorry."

"Don't worry about it, I'm just glad you're okay." Cody looked down at her. He saw the question in her eyes, "Monica called me. They weren't sure where you'd be taken. So they recruited me to help look for you."

Kelly nodded. Cody went on, "I'll call them as soon as I get you home." He reached up and pushed her hair aside, placing his hand protectively on the back of her neck. Kelly leaned into him as they walked out, unsure how to feel about everything.

The End
