Andy collected three wine glasses and passed them out. She eased into her seat while reaching for the wine. The cheap liquid filled their glasses and they simultaneously took a sip.

It's been a while since she's seen or talked to her friends, but nothing about them has changed. Andrea, on the other hand, has learned the ways of the fashion world and took advantage of it.

Silence hovered while Andy fidgeted with the stem of her glass. Doug watched her twirl the glass between her fingers and sigh.

"What's going on, Andy? I haven't seen you this nervous since you told us you were switching teams." He offered a playful smirk when she made eye contact.

"Well…" Andy began while chanting I'm a mature adult, I can handle this, like a mantra in her thoughts. "This is so ninth grade of me." She rolled her eyes and Lily understood.

"Aww our little lesbian's growing up." Lily feigned tears by wiping the corner of her eye. Doug responded with a chuckle and leaned forward to swat Andy's knee.

"Who is it?" He asked with a secretive smile.

"Um… an older woman…?" She gulped down her wine. Doug shot Lily a look and chuckled strangely.

"What's her name?" Lily asked while her eyebrow shot up, her attitude akin to Miranda's. Andrea laughed nervously and shifted in her seat. Doug and Lily exchanged curious glances.

"Miranda Priestly…" the girl drew out and eyed her friends. Lily held out her hand and Doug slapped a 20 in it.

"I told you I knew her better." She put away the money and turned to poke fun, but found an upset Andy.

"You're an ass! I cannot believe the both of you!" The girl huffed and crossed her arms.

"Aww, c'mon Andy! It was just a friendly bet." Doug tried but the brunette wouldn't budge.

"Yeah, at least you know we don't care. Miranda's treating you like someone special. She takes you out and wants to spend holidays with you. Hell, I'd like to get to know this Miranda." Lily finished with a chuckle, melting Andy's angry demeanor.

"Seriously!" Doug added with a nod.

"It's not just how she treats me." With a sigh, Andy settled against the back of her chair. "I'm physically attracted to her. I can see myself touching her in ways that I have not yet experienced." The girl shivered and closed her eyes for a second. "I want her and I want her to want me." Andy rolled her eyes after daring a glance at her friends. Both Lily and Doug broke out into song.

"I want you to want me. I need you to need me. I'd love you to love me. I'm begging you to beg me." They dissolved into a fit of giggles while Andy shot them a look.

"Shut up!" The brunette shrieked.

"Anyway, how do you know she doesn't want you?" Lily's eyebrows furrowed in confusion, as if Miranda were the easiest person to figure out. She couldn't understand how someone who has allowed another person in, after being so guarded, could not have strong feelings for that person.

"She kissed me." Andy shrugged the statement out.

"Lesbo say what?" Doug's gay nature came out with a head roll. Lily's eyes went wide and a smirk played at the corners of her lips.

"Not in the way you think. It was a kiss you give your kid before bed time. Then she kissed my forehead." Andy shook her head sadly and poured another glass of wine. "She flirts all the time." She downed her second glass of wine before her phone rang.

"Speak of the devil…" Doug handed the phone over to his buzzed friend.

"I'll put her on speaker, but… shush. Ok?" The brunette picked up, putting Miranda on speaker "Hi, babe!"

"Hello, darling. I want you to come to breakfast with me and the girls. They miss you something awful. They… um… want you to stay over for their sleepover party." Miranda halted, knowing she had been rambling on. Andy giggled lightly and glanced at her friend's surprised faces.

"A birthday sleepover." She hummed sweetly. "I think that would be lovely. Should I bring anything?" Andy opened and waited for Miranda to take the bait.

"Your lingerie, something simple to remove and with a bow. I want to feel like it's my birthday too." A soft chuckle slipped before she added, "Just a joke, of course. I do think it is quite necessary for you to bring your sleep attire. I doubt the girls will let you go." Miranda sighed softly before continuing. "Anyway, I'll come pick you up tomorrow morning. Be ready by seven thirty." A pause rolled by, letting Andy know that it was her turn to speak.

"Seven thirty? On a Sunday?" The brunette glanced up at her friends.

"Yes… well… I wanted to talk to you about something." A small noise came from the other line. It sounded as if Miranda wanted to continue, but didn't. "I thought we could… talk and…um… I was wondering if you could help me with the decorations for the party." She decided at the last minute; it sounded so much better than spend the day with me.

"Of course, babe. It's a date." All three friends grinned when Miranda snorted.

"Don't be ridiculous, Andrea." There was a pause before the editor cleared her throat.

"Miranda…" Her cheeks began to hurt from the grin.

"Hmm?" The editor was pulled out of her day dream.

"I can hear you blushing from here." Large brown eyes sparkled at the sound of the other woman chuckling. Lily and Doug began nudging each other, pointing, and silently giggling.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow. Good night." With a click, Miranda hung up. Andy burst into laughter.

"You weren't kidding. She's chasing after you yet she's keeping you at bay." Doug said before downing the last of his wine.

"I wonder what she wants to talk about." Lily reached for her suit case and pulled out her pajamas. "Maybe she wants to confess her undying love for you." She laughed as she made her way to the bathroom. Andy rolled her eyes and reached over to pat Doug's knee.

"Are you going to be alright on the couch? Or do you have somewhere else to go?" She put down her phone next to her wine.

"Actually, I'll be staying in a hotel. I am here on business so I get all the benefits." He stuck out his tongue and grinned. "Are you ready to go to bed?" He reached for his luggage and stood up.

"Uh, yeah. I have to be up early." Andy chuckled and stood to walk Doug to the door. She gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Ok, have a good night." She opened the door and watched him walk through.

"Ok, G'night. G'night Lily!" He bellowed into the apartment, making Lily scramble out and gave him a hug.

"Goodnight, baby." Lily planted a huge kiss on his cheek and watched him walk away.

"Ok, let's get to bed." Andy pointed toward the bedroom and waved at the dishes and clothes that littered her living room. "I'll pick that up tomorrow morning." She yawned and ushered Lily to the room.

They snuggled down with murmured "good-nights" and drifted off into slumber. Andy dreamt pissed off Miranda and ringing alarm clocks; completely unaware that she forgot to set hers for the following morning.
