I do not own any part of DWP I have just borrowed them for inspiration.

Miranda was at Runway for only a short time before taking off to Carnegie Hall. Once there she was on the run demanding from everyone their roll and if the time-table was in set.

Nigel was with her and enjoying the whole experience. It was Miranda at her utmost best and Nigel had a front row seat. But that was not all, Nigel once again had surprises under his belt for Miranda. Miranda and Nigel went back stage where the singers were being dressed and made up by the designers.

Miranda stopped when she saw Alexandra running down the hall. "Nigel."

Nigel smiled, "Come with me Miranda. Come see your protégée at work." They followed the running Alexandra as she made her way through one of the dressing room doors. On the door was a sign Taylor Swift. Nigel opened the door and waved Miranda in. Miranda walked in and smiled. As soon as someone saw Miranda the room went quiet except for Alexandra and Taylor. Alexandra was fussing around Taylors outfit.

"Alex it looks great. I just love it."

"You really like it Ms. Swift?"

Taylor laughed, "Please call me Taylor."

Miranda looked at Nigel, smiled and turned to leave.

Once outside the door Miranda remarked, "You know how much I like surprises."

They went back out on the stage and Nigel introduced Miranda to Alice Hawkins. "Alice, I am so glad you agreed to shoot this for us. I have admired your work and you have been so busy it was hard booking you."

Alice had been around many stars but doing a shoot for Miranda and Runway was a dream come true. "Oh Miranda I am glad to be doing this for you. It will be so much fun. Especially the set ups with Bi ..."

Nigel coughed and took Miranda's arm turning her around to lead her to the side of the stage.

"Nigel." Miranda was looking at the spot Nigel had a hold of her. Nigel coughed again, "Sorry Miranda, it is just ... well we need to get started ... stay on time."

Miranda walked with Nigel off to the far side of the stage glaring and sat awaiting the shoot to begin.

One by one the singers came on the stage and Alice put them through the paces. Alice utilized the whole stage even had them out in the seats. Music from the singers played during their shoots and Alice even had them singing with microphones and guitars.

She paired up Tim McGraw and Faith Hill in some very romantic situations. Faith was dressed in numerous pieces including flowing sexy gowns and tiny romantic lingerie. The scenes were enough to make the whole crew hot and bothered. Miranda shifted in her seat as vision of Andréa in those outfits invaded her mind.

Pharrell and Taylor had the most fun as they rocked out to each other's songs. With Taylor on guitar and Pharrell dancing it was a hit with the younger crew members including Alexandra. Miranda spotted the young girl off to the side dancing with some the others and she smiled. Nigel spotted this and grinned, if Miranda kept this up she would no longer be referred to as the Ice Queen.

Pharrell even tried to get Miranda to dance. He sauntered his way over to where she was sitting shimmering in front of her. He did not succeed with the dance but did give her a kiss on the cheek. Nigel rubbed his bald head and the rest of Runway almost ran for the hills, but Miranda just smirked. The singers all went over met and chatted with Miranda after their shoots were done.

The last person out was Tina Turner, she was to be the cover shot as Miranda had promised. What Miranda did not know was the cover shot was going to feature one of Alexandra's pieces. One especially made for this and for Tina. Alexandra's first couture, and it was spectacular. Only Tina could have pulled off the young design at her age. Alice was rearranging items on the stage as Tina and Miranda chatted, then out came a Grand piano.

Miranda looked around then at Nigel, "I thought we were done?"

Nigel smiled, "Alice just wanted to do a few more and everyone agree to it since they were having so much fun."

Miranda frowned something was going on and she did not like it.

Just then Andy walked onto the stage with the girls.

"Mom!" The twins ran over to Miranda and hugged her.

Miranda smiled at the girls leaned down and gave them a kiss. She then introduced Tina to the two girls. "Tina this is Caroline and Cassidy my twins, and you remember Andréa?" The twins were wide-eyed and in shock at who was standing in front of them. Miranda grinned.

"O.K. let's finish this up." Announced Alice.

More chairs had been brought out for the girls and Andy to sit in. The scene was set with fog swirling around the piano as out on the stage walked Billy Joel. At first both girls were stunned, then they let out a scream. Andy was laughing as Miranda sat mortified. Billy just waved and smiled as he sat down at the piano.

Cassidy was hyperventilating, "Mom do you know who that is?"

Miranda smiled, "Yes Bobbsey I do."

Andréa leaned over and kissed Miranda on the cheek.

Miranda did not know who to glare at first the twins or Nigel and Andréa. As Billy and Tina sang the other singers came out and Miranda was amazed at what was progressing. This issue would have to change. It was time for Runway's second special issue.

Andy had been watching Miranda and loving the whole scene. Miranda was having fun. She leaned over and whispered into Miranda's ear. "Just wait Babe."

Miranda looked at her and Andréa pointed a finger. As Miranda turned Isaac Stern and Itzhak Perlman came on stage and started to play their violins.

Now it was Miranda's turn to be stunned into a state of shock. Andréa got up and stood beside Miranda, "One more thing is missing."

Out came Yo-Yo Ma. Miranda was in awe, some of her favorite musicians. She would never have thought she would ever meet them. It was amazing how all the different genres of music sounded so beautiful together.

Nigel leaned toward the two woman, "are you enjoying yourselves?" Andy smiled and nodded. The twins and Miranda were too engrossed to answer.

Once it was all over Miranda, Andy, and the twins went over and met everyone. The girls immediately went over to Billy and ended up sitting one on either side of him.

Soon the group of people heard the piano start-up again. They turned and there was the girls playing with Billy. Miranda was glowing with pride. Andy went to Miranda's side took hold of her arm and leaned into her. They stood watching as the girls played a few songs with the Piano Man. The twins were happier than on Christmas morning opening all kinds of presents.

Billy joked with them stating they needed to go on tour with him next time.

"Mom, can we?" Can we the girls asked in unison.

Miranda looked at Billy. "Now you did it."

Billy smiled and bowed. "I mean it if it is O.K. with your Mother I would love for you come play with me next summer at one of my monthly concerts at Madison Square Gardens."

"Yes, yes, Mother, Please?" The girl's eyes were a deep blue just like Miranda's were when she was looking at couture clothing.

Miranda rolled her eyes, "we will talk about it." Then she laughed.

Nigel stood in front of the piano and called for everyone's attention. "I have one more surprise today and this one is for Six."

Andy looked perplexed. Out walked a lady that no one seemed to recognize in arm with Meryl Streep. Meryl came over and introduced the lady as Roberta Guaspari the woman she played in Music of the Heart.

Andy gasped and covered her mouth. "Oh My God! It is an honor to meet you." Andy held out her hand.

Meryl chuckled. "Roberta this is Andrea Priestly and her partner Miranda Editor in Chief of Runway."

Roberta grinned, "I am the one that is honored to meet you two."

Nigel cleared his throat. "Six, Miranda you probably did not notice but all during the shoot there have been cameras videotaping the whole thing. HBO in conjunction with Runway is producing a documentary on Runway and the making of a successful photo shoot."

Miranda was speechless. The whole Runway crew was smiling as they all thought the same thing. Has the Ice Queen melted? Miranda did not know what to do. Her magazine in a documentary? On HBO?

"Nigel how did you do this?"

"Meryl came to us." Miranda looked at Meryl and Meryl was smiling. "Everything else fell into place after that. All the money generated from the documentary will go to Opus 118 Harlem School of Music."

Miranda looked at Nigel then Meryl, "I do not know what to say."

Andy laughed, "Well that is a first."

Miranda glared. The Runway crew stepped back. Nope the Ice Queen was still alive and the Dragon was about to breathe fire.

Miranda looked around, "well you almost made a perfect documentary." Miranda turned to Meryl and grinned wickedly, "We have yet to hear Meryl sing."

Now it was Meryl's turn to glare at Miranda.

Andy turned toward Meryl, "oh please would you?"

"We will play the piano for you Meryl," the twins shouted.

Miranda laughed, Meryl turned and looked at the twins. "How can I turn that offer down?"

On the way home Andy turned toward Miranda, "that was a pretty good shoot do you not think so?"

Miranda turned and grinned. "How much of that were you in on?"

Andy smiled, "I knew all about it except for Meryl and Roberta being involved. I knew the girls would be blown away meeting Billy Joel." She smiled at the twins.

"Andy we loved it! We got to play the piano with him!"

Andy giggled, "Yes I remember seeing that."

Miranda grinned. "Andréa, I love you." Miranda leaned over and kissed Andréa. Andy accepted it and drew her in deeper.

"Geez, how can you guys breathe?" Cassidy hissed.

Miranda looked up and glared at her daughters who were never at a loss for words. Andy blushed.

"Mommy will we be in the movie? No one at school is going to believe we played with Billy Joel." Miranda laughed at the wide-eyed girls.

That night was the first night for Andy's next round of fertility injections. Miranda stood with the needle in her hand wiggling her eyebrows and smiling.

Andréa was lying on the bed, "I hate this."

Miranda giggled, "I love it." She gave Andréa the shot and then like always kissed the spot to make it feel better, but she did not stop there. Her kisses trailed down one leg then up the other.

"I am beginning to like this." Purred Andréa.

Miranda laughed as she helped Andréa roll over and then she kissed her as she laid her body on top of Andréa's. It was deep and passionate. They kissed for what seemed like hours falling a sleep in each other's arms.

Morning came within hours and Miranda found herself entwined with long legs and arms, sheets and a soft warm body, she smiled. This was the good times.

That day at Runway the halls were a buzz about the shoot from the day before. For the first time Miranda had no orders for John once she came off the elevator. Miranda sat in her chair and took that first sip of hot coffee and reveled in it.

Nigel was at the door when Miranda opened her eyes. "God Miranda you need to do that somewhere else before Corinne falls in love with you."

"Very funny Nigel."

Nigel walked in and laid a huge stack of spread sheets in front of Miranda. Miranda looked up.

Nigel rolled his eyes, "Some of us actually worked last night."

Miranda glared.

"They are amazing Miranda. They need more than a monthly issue."

"I know that is why we are making another special."

Nigel starred. "When did you decide that?"

Miranda smirked, "during the shoot. You cannot have all the surprises Nigel."
