Mickie's POV

The next morning..

A low buzzing sound echoed in my ear as I released a loud sigh. I really didn't want to wake up, I was having a really good sleep for a change. My eyes were fighting against me to keep them open, my head was throbbing. Man, I feel like I got hit by a fucking truck. Maybe having celebratory drinks after my business call wasn't the best idea that I have ever had; no matter, it was such a fun time. I reached over to grab my phone and shut that blasted alarm off, it's almost eleven in the morning. I normally don't sleep in this long, I could use some coffee and a nice shower. My eyes drifted over toward the windows to see that the blinds had been moved slightly. There was some movement on my bed which was to be expected because Pixie loves to sleep with her momma all the time. Her full name is Miss Pixie Peabody, she is half chihuahua and half miniature pinscher. Last year I managed to injure my ACL while practicing my choreography for a concert. I was careless, my mind was overwhelmed and distracted with so many personal things. The whole thing caused me to cancel that show which was something that I never had to do. Depression made an attempt to take over during my recovery period and to combat that, I got a puppy. She made the hell that was last year way more manageable. I managed to roll myself over to a sight that wasn't just my puppy but a welcoming sight nonetheless. "Mi..Mi! Mimi!" The toddler screeched excitedly as she slapped down on my thigh afterwards she started to push me.

A smile from this little blonde girl made me instantly forget that I feel like garbage. How did she manage to come up on my bed? Right. Duh. I have stairs at the end so Pixie can get up here easier. "Did you come to wake me up by yourself? Auntie Mickie could just eat you up, you're so cute." I couldn't help but snatch the little princess in my arms and cover her with kisses. She laughed loudly as I noticed someone standing in the doorway of my bedroom. The warmest of grins formed on her face as she watched her daughter grab onto my face and give me a kiss on the cheek.

This woman is Maria Kanellis, a stunning woman with the brightest of green eyes. She has been my friend since elementary school, she is pretty much my sister and I will forever see her as such. Her vibrant dark, red hair was pulled up into a messy bun; her outfit was a simple blue tanktop and matching shorts. She can really rock that 'mom look' to a tee. "She certainly loves her Auntie Mickie, huh? Don't you, Freddie?" The taller woman started making her way over to sit on the edge of the bed, this attracted her daughter's attention. Fredrica practically leapt out of my arms and into her mother's. "You partied really hard yesterday, you look like a train wreck. I haven't got to party in ages for obvious reasons."

"Performing in front that huge crowd was amazing, you bet your ass I plan on partying the entire weekend." This is probably one of the biggest performances that I have ever done, it seems like a dream come true. In a couple days, my newest song will premiere with a music video to follow suite. I know that it's going to be a big hit; that is what I gathered from the reaction at the concert. I wasn't planning to have a huge party, the last time that happened was way more chaotic than it needed too. Just the morons that live here with me and a couple of my closest friends, although yesterday I added two more to that list. One of those was suppose to turn into a possible quick fuck. She was never suppose to find out my identity; I was going to be 'Alexis' and nothing more. The other is her best friend who seems pretty cool. "Are you coming tonight, Ria?"

I am really hoping that she says yes but I would understand completely if she declined. A mother's work is never done and Maria also runs her own business on the side. She owns an event managing company called Wonderland Event Productions. The redhead does anything from parties to weddings. "Oh hell yeah, I haven't got to really celebrate with my bestie in over two years. I have been dying for some wine. Who's gonna all be there?"

"Atta girl, I will make sure to have some red wine saved for you." That reminds me, I probably should check and see what all I have left in the liquor cabinets if there is any. We drank a good bit after my business call. If needed, I could always ask one of the ladies to pick some up for me. It's not a big deal. "The usual lot plus a couple cowgirls that I met yesterday at the festival." I couldn't help the smile that formed on my face thinking about the woman that managed to catch me off guard multiple times. Blaire Hollyfield. I wasn't expecting to have such a good time with a stranger. The sparks that flew whenever our lips collided, it was straight electricity and I am not sure how to feel about it. The alcohol could have definitely been a factor in my feelings but everything still feels the same since yesterday. The feeling of her lips still lingered against mine, her cute little pet names still ringing my ears. Maria chuckled which got me to arch a brow, "What?"

She bounced her toddler on her lap. Her finger playfully poked me in the shoulder a few times. "You're thinking about one of those cowgirls, she has you hooked, doesn't she?" I hate how she could pretty much read me like an open book. Maybe I am being that obvious. I swear this woman knows me better than I know myself sometimes.

I shrugged my shoulders with a nonchalant response. "I am not sure. There is something about her though, I can't figure it out but she is definitely someone that I want to hang around." I am trying to play it off but Maria knows not to believe my poor attempts at a lie. I am not sure if it's her beautiful blonde hair, her freckled face or those baby blues that have me hypnotized. Her personality really gives me Christy vibes with a touch of ditsy; that could be all a facade though. I guess I am eager to find out.

"Did you guys you know.." She trailed off but I knew where that train of thought was starting to go.

"Fuck-" A sharp slap connected with my shoulder as the redhead gestured toward the literal child in her lap. "OW! Sorry. No we didn't but I wanted too." My cheeks were starting to heat up as I admitted such a fact out loud to another person. I am not a timid person so I don't know why I am acting like such a moron right now.

Maria shook her head from side to side. Freddie wanted off her mom's lap so Maria obliged her request. The toddler waddled around the room probably trying to see what kind of chaos she can cause. The redhead leaned over against me with a shit eating grin. "She's a blonde, isn't she?" What does the hair color have anything to do with this? Not all the girls I have been associated with have been… Oh shit. I didn't realize that almost all of them have, the only one that wasn't was-. "Ha, I knew it! I know your type Mickie Laree!"

I grabbed the pillow behind me and hit her with it playfully a few times. Maria let out a cute little snort laugh and got off the bed to escape my wrath. "Blah blah, now stop being a butthead so I can go shower." I want to make it back to the festival at a decent enough time so I can pick up Blaire and Gabi. I don't know how long we are going to party for but I plan on getting wasted. It's my own party after all and I am not getting out staged.

"Redheads are way better just saying, you should know, half your besties are redheads." The feisty redhead gave a little flirty wink of her as she followed her daughter around my bedroom. That is very true, I am surrounded by them but I wouldn't have it any other way.

"Well I can not confirm or deny said statement, most of my redheads are off the market." It would probably be a crime against humanity if they weren't claimed by someone. They all have rocking bodies, they honestly could have all been models.

"Damn right, I am going to go to bug Daisy for a bit. Last I knew she was swimming in the pool and I am going to join her." You know I am not even surprised at this point, she wasn't planning to go to the gym today so she's gonna get some laps in. Having a pool in the backyard is amazing, I feel like we spend almost everyday in it.

"Da Day!" Freddie practically ran out of the room at the mention of redhead, she also loves spending time with the little blonde. Behind that tough exterior, my security guard is a total softie. Maria gave me a small chuckle as she followed her daughter out of my bedroom.

Swimming does sound really fun at the moment but we are pretty much having a massive pool party later anyways. If I get in now, I am probably not going to want to get out. Letting out a yawn, I reached over and grabbed my phone. Bell sounds caught my attention as my baby girl wagged her tail excitedly at me. "Hey Pix, Momma will be right back okay. Love you sweetie." I gave her all the kisses and I even got a couple in return. Maybe I should bring her along with me, it's been a while since Pixie got to go with me. We aren't going to be there too long, just picking up Gabi and Blaire. Speaking of the cute little cowgirls, I need to text Blaire and make sure that she still remembers the plan for today. I know that we were both pretty drunk but judging on how she was acting, I highly doubt she would forget. Making my way over toward the dresser, I pulled out my phone to send a quick text. 'Good morning Darling, hope you aren't too hungover to hang out today.' If she was as hammered as I was, I shouldn't expect a reply straight away. Now what should I wear today, something casual, or something a bit more tame. I don't think it's going to matter too much since we will be in our bikinis for most of the day. However I want to tease Blaire a bit further, her reactions are so cute; I can't resist. I smiled, grabbing my swimwear and my chosen outfit and headed toward the shower.

I have no clue how long I have been taking to get myself ready for today. I feel like such an idiot, trying to make myself perfect for something that isn't even a date. The song on my phone ended, I reached over to stop the music. A smile graced my lips as I saw that I had an unread message that was mere minutes after I sent her the first one. Shit. I hope Blaire doesn't think that I am ignoring her now. 'Sugar Plum, I wouldn't even dream of missing today. We will be heading to the festival soon. No rush, of course.'

'I'll round up the idiots here within the hour. Don't drink without me and I will text you whenever we arrive.' As far as I am aware of, my other idiot hasn't returned back home from her errands yet. I haven't heard her loud mouth yet then again I have been blasting music for the past while. With a skip to my step, I left the bathroom and my bedroom to head out toward where I think the others were. Finally I looked out the patio door to see that both Maria and Daisy were out by the pool. I wonder what type of shenanigans they are getting too. Freddie was walking around them with the biggest of grins and the cutest of swimsuits with some arm floaties on. These two have been close for a long while, it's actually how I met Daisy through Ria. She became Maria's neighbor in middle school and despite the small age difference, there was an instant connection. The pair seemed to be dancing together whatever music was playing at the time. The taller redhead stopped dancing and noticed me staring at them in the doorway, she grinned. That's whenever Daisy decided to push Maria into the people as Fredrica was clapping excitedly.

"You bitch!" Maria half-shouted trying not to laugh as she watched her toddler decide to jump in the pool with her. Thank goodness for those floaties. "I will get you back for that." The security guard didn't say anything in retort, just casually stuck her tongue before walking over toward the lounge chair that had a towel on it.

"Do I even want to know what's going on out there?" Another voice spoke from behind me, startling me in the process. How in the fuck did she do that? I never heard the door open and close but I guess I was too lost in my thoughts to realize. I spun around to see that she was holding a couple bags which means her mission was a success. A nod of her head confirmed that as I couldn't hold back the grin that formed on my face. I fought the urge to squeal out loud and clap excitedly, I can't believe that it is going to be happening soon. The woman in front of me has been one of my closest friends for about as long as Maria, we have also been living together for almost ten years now. Her skin tone was naturally tanner due to her heritage, she was close to Daisy's height. Dark brown eyes and long, wavy, black hair with red streaks throughout it; her figure was definitely very athletic and it makes sense considering who her workout buddy is. Her name is Victoria Varon but also has an alias that she uses while working as my manager, that being Tara Sole. I don't think I could ask for a better manager and I always get to travel with my two best friends.

"The usual, you know those two. So can I see-"

"Oh there you are!" It was Daisy's voice that spoke full of excitement as Victoria's eyes looked directly behind me. Fuck maybe it wasn't the smartest move to start a conversation right by the backdoor. The raven haired woman was quick to hand the bags over to me as I could hear the sound of footsteps getting closer. I turned back around to see that Daisy had the towel wrapped around her body and the happiest of smiles. "Hey babe." She cooed in a sweet tone that I wanted to playfully gag at, she gave the woman in front of me a quick peck on the lips. I swear these two idiots are the cutest couple I have ever seen. Not going to lie, I am quite envious of their relationship. I have longed for love like that, I haven't found that person for me yet. I thought I had before but that was all a lie. "I see Mickie has you already running errands for her. So are you going to show me what you got?" Daisy was trying to be a nosy fuck and peek into the bag but I was quick enough to smack her hand away. "Ow! Mickers, that isn't fair."

"This is for my next photoshoot. Now stop being nosy, you will see it all in due time." Well fuck, now I am going to think of ideas for my next photoshoot. I guess my manager owes me a favor after all of this is said and done anyways. "Go get ready you cute fucks, we have about an hour until we have to be at the festival."

"Yeah yeah, I also got some more drinks for tonight. Can you unload them from the car while we get ready?" The raven haired woman pointed back toward the front door as she laced her other hand with Daisy. "Alright babe, let's go before Miss Bossy Britches decides to dock our pay or something." Victoria tugged on her younger girlfriend's arm and started leading them over toward their bedroom. She mouthed a 'thank you' back at me quickly as I decided to go hide these items from the snoopy redhead.

Gabi's POV

The sound of shrieking pierces my ear, causing me to jolt up so high I fell out of bed in a tumble of blankets. Whatever was left of my sleep leaves my body as my heart thunders in my chest. The pain of finally crashing to the hard floor below hits as I hear a voice. "OH EM GEE! OH EM GEE! OH EM GEE!" Blaire fangirls excitedly on the bed. "My Goddess texted me!" Despite all her shrieking, my head was still groggy from having just been woken up. What in the world is going on? What's with all this screaming so early in the morning? As the blonde continued to shriek excitedly from atop the bed, I struggled to unwrap myself from the bedsheets trapping me on the floor. Why in the hell was I so bundled into these sheets? It's the middle of summer and I am already sweating just having them wrapped around me. As if finally noticing that the entire bed sheet had vanished from the bed, my best friend looked around to find me tangled on the floor. "Gabi? What are you doing there silly? Are you playing burrito with the bedsheets?" She asked innocently, cocking her head to the side like she didn't just scream so loud that glass could have probably shattered.

"You. You are the reason I am down here. Why were you screaming, B? I was sleeping so nicely until you attempted to make me go deaf." I asked to which I didn't get a response back, I noticed the younger woman typing away on her phone. Well that didn't last long, her attention tends to be a bit scattered whenever she tries to multitask.

"Oops! I'm sorry Gabi. Do you need help getting up?" Blaire looked down at me with her puppy dog eyes. I sighed, knowing I can't stay mad at her when she looks at me like that. While most people always say that B is too much to handle, I know that she's really just an excitable person, who always authentically shows how she feels. There's not much filter with her, whereas I'm the opposite. I'm usually the always composed one, who hides my emotions behind a pleasant smile. My best friend is always such a fresh breath of air for me and that's why our friendship works. Although it's moments like these, I wish she could contain her emotions until I've had my moment to wake up and catch my breath.

"Yeah, thanks. Are you okay? I have never heard you scream so loud before." I asked as she helped me get untangled from the sheets. I am still dumbfounded how I managed to do this to myself. I guess it's better to not think about it further. I am more curious about what the heck happened to make her scream like that.

"Yeah, I just couldn't help myself, I was so excited! Mickie texted me a good morning text and I just can't believe it. I thought everything that happened yesterday was a dream. Did I really make out with Mickie James?" Blaire said as her eyes glazed over, probably replaying her foggy memories in her mind. Did she make out with her 'goddess'? What happened yesterday while I was getting some food? How did my best friend end up meeting the singer she's been drooling over? I was so shocked to find B and the singer talking and flirting with each other. Honestly I think they were about to kiss whenever I threw the food at my bestie but what transpired next makes me regret nothing about my actions. Finally standing back up to my feet, I stretched a bit and made myself comfortable on the bed again.

"I don't know, did you make out with her? I mean, you both were hammered whenever I saw you guys. What did you do? More importantly, how did you manage to meet her and not end up with a restraining order?" That last sentence was mainly referring to the part where Blaire literally tackled Mickie to the floor after I threw my cup at her head. I think the brunette's reaction to the whole thing was hilarious. She was spinning around trying to comprehend what was going on. The security guard looked tempted to beat her ass, I think B was very lucky in that scenario.

The shorter blonde tapped her finger on her chin a couple times. "Oh yeah! So I was scoping some cuties at the bar and I saw this hottie sitting all by herself. So I chose her as my 'friend' for the night and went over to introduce myself. Her name's Alexis. Prettiest black hair and cute glasses, she got that honkytonk badon kadonk if you know what I am saying." No, I don't have the slightest idea what that means.. I feel like I heard a song called that once. Isn't that another way of saying ass? If that is the case, I am not surprised that's what B fixated on. "We chat a bit, drink more shots and we hit the dance floor. We played tonsil hockey and I went to pull on her hair. Gabi, the whole thing was a wig and I was face to face with Mickie James! My literal Goddess was right in front of me, I almost combusted on the spot."

I took the time to digest the information that B had given me, it seems pretty surreal. The odds of that happening are pretty much nonexistent. Blaire is so infatuated with the country singer, mostly everyone has some sort of celebrity crush. Those eyes and the look she gives me while talking about Mickie tells a whole different story. "So you really didn't burst into her trailer or something? You just got lucky and met her at the bar?"

"Mhmm, I mean it's not a trailer park, Gabi." I stared at her for a solid five seconds, too stunned to speak. I love Blaire to death, but she's not exactly the brightest girl. I am not going to correct her.

"Y-yeah, uh, you're right. B, I should go have you play the lotto for us today. I can't imagine ever being that lucky. Out of all the people at that festival to meet, it was the one person you truly wanted to meet." There are thousands of people at this festival and she really got to meet the whole reason we tried so hard to get those tickets. Not only that, they seem to get along really well. Too well in fact, I can't believe it. That's it, I am going and getting some tickets for Blaire to scratch off.

"Yeah! You're right. I guess I am lucky like that huh?" She never realizes how luck always seems to be on her side. Yesterday is proof enough of that.

That settles it. There has to be a reason that all of this happened and I am intrigued to find out. "Perhaps it was fate bringing us here, you might actually have a chance with Mickie."

Blaire practically flew off the bed upon hearing me say that, I have never seen her sit up so fast in my entire life. She giggled like a school girl as she leaned over. "You think?! Yesterday feels like dumb luck. It was all the alcohol!" The blonde has always had this shroud of confidence about her, I am astonished to hear that the alcohol could have been the cause of it. Then again, this is a famous person we are talking about; we haven't been placed in a situation like this before.

"Yeah, I think you do. Just try not to be too pushy and obsessed. Just be a calmer version of your usual self."

"You think I can be calm whenever I am with a literal goddess!" Well B isn't exactly ever calm but it was worth a shot. That girl's dial is either one hundred or broken, it's never at zero unless she's asleep.

"Yeah, you might not want to call her a goddess to her face."

"Uh yeaaaah. About that. She already knows." Blaire let out another giggle with a blush starting to form across her cheeks. The blonde turned the phone over for my eyes to see Mickie's contact screen. I am still in shock that the brunette actually gave her a phone number. It has to be a personal number if Mickie is actually texting her back. 'I am literally her goddess- MJ' The words read out. Well at least the brunette seems to find it funny or appealing in some way.

"Oh God." I mumbled, burying my face in my hand. Out of all the things B had to blurt out, this is probably the worst. It is pretty funny though.

"Well she's definitely a goddess I want to worship." She cooed over in a husky tone, wiggling her eyebrows at the thought.

Yeah no, I am not dragging this conversation out any further if it's going to be horny like this. I got more than enough information about what happened yesterday. Pieces are still missing but I am sure the others will fill in the blanks. "I… Yeah not going down that rabbit hole again. Just tone down a little."

Her lips curled into a pout as she crossed her arms over her chest, almost like she was sulking. "That's no fun." We still have a couple hours until we need to be at the festival to meet up with the singer and her friends. Blaire immediately decided to rush into the shower first which I didn't mind because she takes forever to get ready sometimes. Meanwhile I will go ahead and get an outfit ready and anything else that I might need. The blonde mentioned something about wearing our bikinis since Mickie owns a pool. That probably means I will have to stop B from drooling over her 'goddess' so the younger woman doesn't ruin her opportunity with her. Regardless, I think that I am going to enjoy this experience; people can seldomly say that they made friends with a celebrity. All I know is today is really going to be interesting and that excites me.

A little bit later..

As we rolled up to the house, I was surprised to see that Mickie's place wasn't a huge mansion, but a modest sized country house. The car slowly rolled into the driveway into a slow stop. Grabbing the door handle,we all exited the car one by one. I stood back to really take the place in. Was Mickie one of those celebrities who was more lowkey and not obsessed with their wealth? I found that surprising considering she seemed like one of those big personalities on stage. Blaire really found an interesting celebrity to be obsessed with. I could see Blaire in the corner of my eyes, fidgeting back and forth in her spot, which seemed unusual for her. She would usually be excitedly bouncing around and running straight into the house.

"Hey B." I whispered, trying to get her attention. "You okay?" The small blonde turned to look at me, her blue eyes wide with worry.

"Yeah, just nervous is all. I can't believe I'm at Mickie James' house! What if I fuck this up and scare her off?" She asked, her eyes looking towards the celebrity.

"You'll be okay B. You've got an irresistible charm. Just be your usual goofy self. I'm sure that's what Mickie found cute about you yesterday." I say, nodding with encouragement. My best friend nodded, closing her eyes, taking a deep breath before putting on a reassuring smile.

We waited for Mickie to unlock the door and once she did, she went inside. Before we could enter behind her, Daisy held her arm out to stop us. "You try anything funny, I will find out about it."

A little sigh was heard behind as the raven haired woman walked around beside her girlfriend, she placed her hand on the small of Daisy's back. "Babe, you got to relax. I mean all of our good friends were strangers once. Don't be such a worrywart. I know those few have been making you stress a lot but I can really tell that these girls are good people." She soothed as the redhead gave her girlfriend a small glance. The smile on Victoria's face told her everything she needed to know.

The security guard seemed hesitant at first but this tells me that there is a reason that she is so overprotective of Mickie. Something might have happened. "You know how it is, Vic, but you are right. That doesn't mean I won't still be keeping my eyes peeled." The fiery redhead gave us a side eye before turning around. While she was looking at both of us while she said that, I had a feeling she really meant it more towards Blaire. Which is understandable, we are both strangers in her friend's house after all. I also didn't tackle her best friend to the ground.I turned and saw Blaire pouting.

"What a meanie." She said, grumpily with her arms crossed in front of her.

"Come on slowpokes! You know there's more to the house than the porch!" Mickie yelled from inside the house but she had disappeared from our line of sight. Daisy shook her head at her best friend's sarcasm and went inside.

"She is right, you know, after you ladies." The manager said with a nonchalant shrug of her shoulders, gesturing to the doorway. I really like the vibe that I am getting from Victoria, she seems so chill. I was expecting someone that was a manager to be way more strict and uptight with their methods but no, the raven haired woman seems fun.

As we both walked inside to what seemed to be the living room, I was surprised to see how normal it was. Blaire however was gasping at everything, her eyes seeming to try to absorb everything she sees. "Welcome to our pleasant little sanctuary. This isn't too much to see inside here. There's more exciting things to see outside. Wanna get some drinks started and we can go hang out in the back of the house?" Mickie gave us a playful little wink gesturing over toward her liquor cabinet. B's eyes practically lit up and she grinned ear to ear, looking over toward me. Oh right, these girls are going to attempt to get me drunk. The manager known as Tara chuckled and was the first one to grab some bottles from the cabinet.

"Seriously, you couldn't wait until I was out the door to say that. You know I've been craving a drink for ages now." Another unfamiliar voice chimed in which attracted all of our attention over toward the guest bedroom. She was a redhead with the brightest of green eyes; what really got my attention was the child that was resting on her hips. I am going to assume that is her daughter. She seems pretty tired or just woke up from a nap. What a cutie!

"Sorry Ria, but hey, I want you to meet the ladies I told you about earlier before you leave." The singer walked in between the three of us. "This is Gabrielle but I call her Gabi and this is Blaire. Ladies, this is Maria, I've known her most of my life. She's pretty much my sister." Maria gave a warm smile as her eyes glanced between the both of us. Her gaze seemed to linger more on the shorter blonde, the smile turned into more of a smirk. Mickie let out a sigh before the redhead could speak. She reached over and rubbed the top of the toddler's head. "And this little angel right here, is Fredrica or she is blessed with her mother's good looks, I am only slightly kidding, her husband is a handsome man."

"She's such a cutie! Nice to meet you Fredrica, my name is Blaire." My best friend cooed over to the small child with such excitement in her voice. She loves being around children, which makes sense because sometimes Blaire acts like a total child. Everyone is a child at heart. The redhead and Mickie both seemed to like how the blonde was interacting with the toddler. Freddie gave the cowgirl a small smile which made Blaire clap her hands excitedly. "Nice to meet you too, Maria."

"Nice to meet you both, your daughter is precious." So Maria has known Mickie almost their whole lives, kinda like how Blaire and I have. She got to hang around the brunette way before she became famous. A true friend that encouraged her and helped her follow her dreams. I love that for them, she seems really nice from first impressions.

"Thank you. It's nice to meet you both as well. I will be back in a few hours after I make sure Mike will be fine without me. Mickie don't get too wasted without me."

"No promises Ria, love you bunches though!" The redhead shook her head at her friend's antics before giving us a small wave. Both of them disappeared from our sight as the front door closed. The singer clapped her hands together which got our attention. "Vic, you got us some shots poured yet!"

"Hell yeah I do, I hope tequila is okay for you ladies. If not, I can always fetch something else." Tequila isn't really my favorite thing whenever I drink but she's already poured the shot glasses for all of us. I don't plan on drinking a lot so it shouldn't be that bad. We walked over toward the kitchen counter. The raven haired woman flashed a smile while she slid the glasses across the counter toward us. "Here you go."

"Thank you Victoria." I said, as I waited for everyone else to grab a hold of their glasses. A bright smile appeared on everyone's face as we put our glasses together before doing the shots. Shit, that burnt a good bit. It was pretty strong.

The singer pointed toward the patio door and motioned for us to follow her. Her friends were heading outside with Pixie following them outside. The first thing I saw after walking out the back door was the pool, it was in the ground and had a diving board on one side. There were chairs around the pool and two buildings over toward what looked to be a garden. One building looked to be a tool shed which would make sense being so close to the garden. The larger building I wasn't so sure about. The backyard was fenced off with two gates, one for each side. In the distance I could see a barn but this land has to be a couple acres at least. Maybe later, I can ask Mickie what she grows, there seems to be a lot in there. I am also curious about the animals in the barn if any occupy it.

"Heyyyy, what's up putas! What's everyone doing here?" A strange woman screamed, bursting in from the back gate, kicking it wide open. The gate slammed against the fence as Blaire let out a yelp, almost hiding behind me. The woman was a little taller than Mickie, sporting a basic t-shirt and jean shorts. Brown eyes that seemed to burn intensely and long,wavy brown hair that stopped a little past her shoulders. My eyes looked over to see the reactions of the other ladies here, they didn't seem really fazed by the loud outburst.

"Damn it Sarita, I just got that gate repaired. Love you but can you please not do that?" Daisy looked unimpressed at the woman now known as Sarita, who gave a smirk and waved her bottle of alcohol around.

"Hell yeah, this party has gotten spicy now!" Victoria clapped her hands together with excitement. Well this definitely confirms that this is a normal thing for her to do and that they are friends. The raven haired woman was already taking off her shirt, tossing it over onto one of the lounge chairs.

"I am so glad you could make it." The singer greeted her friend.

"And miss a good time, hell no Cuz, I gotta celebrate with my girls before I head off to Cali. I've been talking to this really hot Mami, she's friends with my cousin, Rosita. Lemme pull up a picture, she's smoking and Imma smash." The Latina once again gave a cocky smirk, reaching into her pocket for her phone. At that moment, her eyes locked onto the two of us, complete strangers to this woman. She took a couple steps closer as Blaire looked over at Sarita as well, seeming not to be scared by her presence anymore. She nodded her head, as she bluntly checked us out from head to toe. "Oh I see, we got some new sexy Mamis up in here. Don't think I have seen you two before. I don't remember anyways."

"Sarita, how drunk are you? You weren't suppose to drink before getting here. That's not fair to us!" Surprisingly it was Daisy that spoke up, doing her best to sound offended that Sarita had been drinking prior to arriving. Wait, she's here by herself. Does that mean that the Latina drove herself here? I would hope that isn't the case.

"Porqué? Relax, I still have some of my bottle still left so I am not drunk enough." The security guard didn't really say anything in response to the newest visitor, instead she walked back over to where her girlfriend was. Sarita set her stuff on the table, I guess she forgot about showing us her hot Mami.

I decided that now would be the best time to introduce ourselves to Sarita, the others haven't done so yet. We have to be social here as well, soon everyone might get too drunk to function. "Hey." I spoke, which managed to immediately get the brunette's attention. "I am Gabrielle, you can call me Gabi. This is my best friend, Blaire. It's nice to meet you, Sarita."

"Gabi and Blaire eh? I'll remember that. But enough with small talk, it's hot as fuck out here and I want to swim." The Latina spoke, quickly removing her t-shirt with little effort. I don't know if it's just the alcohol but I actually agree with her. There weren't any words exchanged while the rest of us were getting prepared to swim. I noticed that Blaire's eyes were practically glued onto Mickie the entire time. Way too be subtle, B. I am pretty sure she's drooling. I gave her a little nudge to the side, trying to snap her out of the obvious horny thoughts the blonde was having. I am trying to make sure she doesn't ruin her chance with Mickie.

"If you want anything extra for the pool, it's in the pool house." The redhead spoke more or less toward the two of us, pointing behind her to the larger building beside the toolshed. "We have-" Daisy didn't get to finish what she was saying; her girlfriend shoved her hard causing her to fall into the pool. Mickie let out a loud snort laugh, which got Blaire to join in with laughing. The redhead finally surfaced, she looked up at Victoria. "Babe, what the fuck!"

"You're looking a little too hot over there, I thought I could help you cool down." The raven haired woman stated nonchalantly as she gave a wide grin at the woman in the pool.

Daisy didn't seem very thrilled about the answer. She started shivering and rubbed her arms as she whined. "It's so cold in here babe! Help me get out."

Instead of swimming toward the ladder on the other side, the bodyguard swam toward the side in front of her girlfriend. "Aw, I'm sorry babe, I didn't realize it was that cold. Here, take my hand." Victoria said sympathetically. She bends closer to the pool, her handing stretched out to grab her girlfriend. Daisy grabbed her girlfriend's hand, and with a yank, the raven hair girl shrieked as she flew right into the water, right next to her redhead girlfriend. "What the hell!"

"You're looking a little too hot over there, I thought I could help you cool down." The redhead said in a mocking tone even placing her hands on her hips. I wasn't expecting something so childish out of the one that is known to be the serious one.

"I can't believe you fell for that again." Mickie said, as we all chuckled at their antics.

In the corner of my eyes, I saw the spicy brunette take a few steps back. "Don't have fun without me, putas. Cannonball!" She said, as she charged right into the pool, making sure to jump as close as possible to the other women in the pool. She managed to splash all of us as Sarita gave the couple a smirk.

"Hey Darling, wanna show them how it's done and go to the diving board?" It was the singer that spoke up next, turning her attention to my best friend. The blonde didn't have to think for a second, she instantly nodded her head. Mickie laced her hand to Blaire's as the duo walked around the edge of the pool over to the other side where the diving board was. I can't help but find their interactions to be adorable. "Since you are my guest, you go first." B gave one last smile at the singer before stepping onto the diving board. With her back turned to the brunette, I noticed Mickie take a couple steps back. What is she doing? Without hesitation she charged at Blaire and tackled her into the pool. I was not expecting that.

"Ha! She wrecked your shit, blondie!" It was Sarita that exclaimed as the others laughed at the antics of their friend. I have to admit that it got a laugh out of me. All it did was remind me of the scenario I witnessed yesterday except with water and less alcohol. Blaire and Mickie both surfaced from the pool and shared a laugh with each other. That's good, she is having a great time. "Come on Gabrielle, what's the matter? The water's too cold for you? Don't be a chicken!" It was Sarita that taunted me as my eyes drifted away from my bestie and her crush.

"Puh- lease, I'm a farm girl. I was just saving the best for last." I say, feeling a bit cheeky. Taking a few steps back, I cannon balled into the pool, right next to the spicy Latina.

"Wow, blondie, I didn't think you had it in you." Sarita teased, she really likes trying to push people's buttons, doesn't she? The Latina seems so chaotic but in a good kind of way. I don't know if that makes sense but she seems pretty chill.

"I'm full of surprises." I say in my own teasing tone.

The gate opened once again but not as loud of an entrance as the previous guest made. It was someone that I was familiar with. It was Christy, she gave a smirk as she pointed behind her. "Hey bitches, the party has arrived and I brought two hot pieces of ass with me! You can thank me later." Two other women appeared to walk in behind her, one being Maria, who was here earlier and the other was a brunette. Her hair was long, dark, brown going way past her shoulders. Possibly about Mickie's height, her figure screams supermodel to me. If I have to make a guess on who this is, I am going to say Tessie. "Yo Blaire and Gabi! You gotta meet my hottie with the million dollar body. This is Brooke, but you can call her Tessie or Tessmacher. Don't be going to try to steal this ass, I have had dibs for years. I might be willing to share though.."

"Welp, there's our neighborhood Tryhard." Daisy says behind me. I couldn't help but chuckle, Christy really is quite the character.

"You know, I sometimes wonder why I am dating you, Christina." The woman known as Brooke let out a sigh, shaking her head at her partner's antics. That is the first time I have heard the flirty woman be called by what I assume is her actual name.

"Because you two are both horny fucks." It was surprisingly Maria that spoke up which got both of them to look over at the redhead. They both looked like they wanted to protest the accusation but instead nodded their heads in response. "See couldn't even deny it, I love you both." The redhead walked away from the couple and went into the house from the patio door. She is probably going to make herself a drink before dealing with all the chaos going on.

"Hurry up and get in the pool slowpokes, let's play some chicken!" Mickie shouted over at the new arrivals.

"Don't need to tell me twice!" Christy said excitedly as she was very fast to strip off her casual clothes and into her swimsuit. "Let's go Brooke, I will be the one on top, you know like usual."

Tessmacher gave a look of disapproval of her girlfriend sharing too much information about their sex life. She seemed slightly flustered by it. The brunette instead just sighed while removing her clothes as well. "Oh Jesus Christ, help me. Fine, but you better win for us." Tryhard gave her girlfriend a confident nod, she ran and jumped into the pool. Brooke was soon to join in the fun after while Maria made her way back outside with a cup of wine in hand.

"Ria, you want to play chicken with us?" It was Victoria that asked the redhead, who gave a curious look.

Maria nodded her head yes. She didn't speak an answer, instead her eyes scanned the pool seemingly going between all of us. What is she doing? "There are an odd amount of people, someone will have to sit out."

"I guess I could sit out and give someone else a chance to win." It was the security guard that spoke in almost a cocky tone as she started swimming her way over toward the ladder. "I will be the referee for this, it would be too easy if Vic and I were to team up. Get a partner you guys, I am going to get another shot." Daisy did have a point, her and Victoria are the biggest ones here and possibly the strongest strength wise.

Part of me wants to ask Blaire to be my partner for this game but I want her to team up and continue getting closer to Mickie. As long as she doesn't make this weird I should be good. If they team up, that leaves me with Maria, Victoria and Sarita as options. I barely interacted with Maria, but my answer came swimming over to me. "Hey farm girl, you have to be strong to do that. What do you say, wanna be my partner and teach these putas how spicy we can be?"

I am about ninety-nine percent positive that the Latina doesn't even remember my name. This would probably be my best option to win this little game, she seems competitive as hell. Victoria seems like the type to goof off too much but I don't think I would be able to hold the raven haired woman up for long. "You know what, I was thinking the exact same thing. I am hoping you aren't all talk and have some bite to you."

I decided to tease the shorter woman which caused Sarita to arch her brow. "Damn, farm girl's got claws."

Looking around at the other pairings, I saw B and Mickie paired up together, which I smiled at. Hopefully Blaire doesn't say anything too dumb, lord know she has no filter on that mouth of hers. Maria and Victoria were the only ones left. I heard the patio door close as Daisy started making her way back over toward the lounge chairs with a glass in hand. "Alright, have you ladies figured everything out yet? I am bored and want some entertainment."

"Don't expect too much entertainment because farm girl and I got this in the bag." Sarita responded to the security guard confidently which earned some attention from the others. Should I even remind her what my name is?

"Ha! You wish, Sarita!" Hemme was the first to object, she might be the most unpredictable one here.

The tallest redhead sat down in the chair and relaxed a bit while speaking again. "You ladies know how to play, no aiming for the face blah blah blah everything else I'll make an exemption for."

"You ready to beat some putas, farm girl?"

"Darling, what does putas mean?" My best friend asked innocently, as Mickie leaned over and whispered in her ear. "Oh! That's so silly!" She said laughing.

You know I haven't played this game in years so I am thankful that I am not the one that has to do all the fighting. Sarita swam over toward the edge of the pool and I followed behind her. She climbed up on the side, this way it would be way easier and less murder on my body. The Latina hopped on my shoulders which almost got me to stumble forward. This is way harder than it used to be but I would rather not have the drunkest person here trying to hold me up. My eyes scanned the others that were prettier, much already ready to begin. Blaire being the one holding Mickie up shouldn't really surprise me. She's a little stronger than she looks. The woman outside the pool took another sip of her drink. "Ready?" The redhead asked as everybody nodded their head at her. That got the security guard to grin widely, she held up what looked like an air horn. Where did she grab that from? "Alright ladies, dance for me."

At the sound of the horn we all moved forward. I moved towards the end of the pool where all the beach balls and other inflatable stuff floated too. I could hear the Latina hurrying me from above which I ignored as I reached for the beach ball first, handing it to Sarita to which she started chucking at the others. "What the hell Sarita!?" Christy yelled as the ball landed on the back of her head.

"Ooo! That's a good idea!" Victoria yelled as she handed her partner a pool noodle, to which Ria then whacked Mickie, who was closing in on her.

"Ow!" Mickie yelped as the noodle thwacked her on the face. She shook it off quickly. "Oh, you are so gonna get it!" Mickie snarled viciously, she and Blaire charged forward. The brunette kicked out her leg, which hit Maria on the side.

"Oof, foul play!"

"It's a chicken fight, Ria…" Daisy deadpanned. "Come on Firecrotch, fight back already."

As Sarita and I watched this from a safe distance, we saw Christy and Brooke sneak up behind Maria and Victoria. As the redhead threw her arm back to hit Mickie with the noodle, Christy grabbed the noodle from behind and yanked it hard, causing the redhead and raven hair duo to stumble. Christy then started to barrage the duo with the noodle, causing them to yell, as Maria tried to shield herself. Seeing that the redhead's eyes were closed, Christy dropped the pool noodle into the water and then shoved the other duo, causing them to fall into the water.

"What's the matter? I thought you could handle things that are long and hard. I guess I know where I stand compared to Mikey boy." Tryhard said with a slight purr to her voice as the redhead looked up at Christy. Instead of a verbal response, the redhead gave a smirk and threw the closest object to her at the redhead. "Oh! What the hell!" She yelped as the volleyball hit her and she immediately turned to look at Daisy, who wasn't even paying attention to what was going on. Her attention was more on her girlfriend, who had climbed out of the pool and joined her on the chair. "Nikki, are you not going to do something about that!"

"Hm? Sorry Chrissy, what are you whining about?" The security guard asked nonchalantly, taking a sip of her glass while relaxing some more in the chair. "Probably deserved-" As Daisy was talking, I saw Mickie and Blaire trying to sneak behind the team of Christy and Brooke.

"Don't forget about me!" Mickie screamed, getting rid of the stealth element she had going for her. Coming up behind Christy, Mickie looped the pool noodle around Christy and yanked it hard causing the thirsty duo to lose balance, falling backwards. Hemme yelped as she and her girlfriend fell onto Mickie and Blaire.

"Ouch! Get off of me you big lug!" The singer yelled, trying to shove the duo off. Whatever Mickie had planned failed as Christy and Brooke regained their balance again.

"Oh, you are so on Mickers!" Christy yelled. Turning around, Christy and Brooke charged at the other duo, who then started wrestling each other. At first they started arms locked together, and they both eventually grabbed each other's hair and started pulling wildly. A whole cat fight ensued in front of us. Sarita laughed above me at the two teams' crazy antics, and I couldn't help but chuckle too. I am so glad I didn't end up on top.

"Mee-ow." I could hear Daisy say as she watched the two teams going at it. I love how they pretty much forgot about our existence, no matter, it will be easy for us to capitalize on that later.

Sarita grabbed onto a water gun that floated besides us and started squirting it at the two wrestling teams. "You're next you Latina bitch!" The redhead yelled as the water got in both hers and Mickie's eyes. Trying to protect her eyes, she lost grip of Mickies hair, who then proceeded to put Christy into a headlock.

"Just quit already!" The singer yelled as tried to pull Hemme off but Christy seemed to have other plans. Instead of trying to get Mickie arms off, Christys arms snaked around behind Mickie and yanked on the straps to her swimming top, causing them to come undone and fall off. Mickie yelped as felt her bathing suit top come undone. For a snap second, I got a full view of her breasts, which caused my face to flush red, before I shifted my eyes somewhere else. Mostly everyone erupted in cheers, as Sarita whistled above at the scene. Mickie gasped, her hands going to cover her chest. "Put me down, Blaire!" She yelled as her face became flushed. Daisy laughed at the whole scene. Rushing to put her down, Blaire dipped below the water, allowing the singer to hop off.

"Hey! No fair!" My best friend practically snarled over at the laughing Tryhard. B reached over and quickly grabbed the bikini top that was floating in the pool before wrapping her arms around Mickie, trying to help give her some cover. She looked at Daisy, pouting, afterwards she glared at Christy.

"I'll allow it." Daisy said with a smug smirk on her face causing both Blaire and Mickie to protest. This caused the security guard to get thumped in the head by the woman beside her, that being her girlfriend. My best friend's attention went back to Mickie, as she spent the next minute or so making sure that the bikini top was tied securely.

"I hope the only tits you're thinking about right now are my tits babe!" The raven haired woman yelled, her eyes narrowing at her girlfriend.

"Of course babe, I am thinking about how they'll be perfect around my dick later tonight." Victoria's face became red at her response, mine also becoming the same shade. Why are these people so comfortable about saying vulgar things like that out loud? I don't understand.

"Alright farm girl, it's our turn now!" Sarita said, while patting my head, bringing my attention back to the next fight. I rolled my eyes at the Latina's nickname. Taking a deep breath, I prepared myself for the craziness that's about to happen. I just hope that between Sarita and Christy, it doesn't get too crazy. But from what I have just seen, my hopes are starting to look like a fantasy. And somehow now I am going to be in the crossfires.

"You got lucky, Hemme, but now it's my turn to win." Sarita stated confidently.

"Ha, you wish! You're going down!" Christy barked back. Sarita reloaded her water gun before she started spraying it at the couple. With one hand, the redhead blocked the water. "That's not gonna work anymore." She said before the duo charged at us. Tightening my legs, I prepared myself for the impact. As we collided, Sarita matched Christy's energy and was wrestling her above. The two were hitting and shoving each other, causing me and Brooke to stumble back. At one point, Christy's foot came flying at my side causing me to lose my breath.

"Fuck you Tryhard." I hissed out, glaring up at her.

"When and where bitch! Brooke, you game?" Jesus Christ, why did I say anything?

"I don't think she's serious. Calm your tits, Christina." The brunette spoke calmly to her louder girlfriend.

"Hey puta, where's my invitation?!" Sarita inserted herself into the conversation thankfully meaning that the horny woman would leave me alone.

Christy cocked her head to the side as she asked skeptically. "Wait, you're serious, right? I have asked you so many times, Mami and you have threatened to kick my ass." You know what, I can see that being a thing.

"Babe.. now is not the time to talk about a threesome." Tessie said, trying to get her girlfriend to focus on the challenge at hand. Christy is very distracted right now so that could be what my partner's game plan is.

"Anytime is the right time!"

"This time is different though, only one condition and I am game." The spicy Latina purred seductively.

"Eh? What's that?"

"I am the one that's on top." Without any hesitation, Sarita practically propelled herself off of me and leapt onto the couple. All three bodies crashed into the water as I stumbled backwards but managed to stay standing. Ow. She really couldn't have given me a warning, that hurt my shoulders. All three of the women resurfaced as Sarita flicked the redhead on the nose. "You lost, Firecrotch." I was the last woman standing in this little contest, the Latina looked back at me and gave me a wink along with a thumbs up. "We make a great team, farm girl."

The sound of the air horn caught my attention as Daisy stood up from the chair. "Your winners of the match, the team of Sarita and Gabrielle!" The redhead announced like she was some sort of sport commentator or something, she tossed the air horn back in the chair. She was quick to jump back in the pool and her girlfriend followed suit. "Although that Thesz Press was pretty weak, I can't believe Hemme lost after all the dirty tactics she pulled."

"Shut up Nikki."

"I can't believe you got distracted by her obvious lies." Brooke said with disappointment over toward her girlfriend, who was too busy glaring at her cousin. I noticed that Mickie and Blaire had finally fixed the bikini top and were coming back over to join the group. I noticed in their hands they both had pool noodles while the singer had a devilish smirk on their face. Both pairs of eyes were focused on the redhead and Tessmacher, who noticed them approaching. She pointed over toward her lover, "That was all her idea and I am going to go get a drink, have fun, Hemme baby."

The brunette started swimming toward the ladder, Christy's attention went back to her girlfriend. "Wha-" She couldn't get a word out; the redhead was whacked multiple times by both my best friend and Mickie.

"You dirty bitch, you thought you were going to get away with that! I'm about to show you how Hardcore Country I can be." The brunette let out a laugh while continuously swinging the pool noodle at the perverted redhead. I couldn't help but laugh at all of this. She honestly deserves it and I know that Mickie isn't actually mad at her for doing what she did. Blaire is joining in on the fun and I bet she isn't happy with what Tryhard did.

Daisy observed both of the shorter women chasing her cousin around the pool hitting her with a barrage of blows from their weapons. "I'll allow this."

Several minutes passed as Mickie and Blaire were satisfied with their handiwork and ensuring that Hemme would think twice before attempting that again. Let's be real, she probably liked it and will attempt it again. After our victory, we alternated between different fun pool games to play. I guess no one wanted a rematch. Sometimes we would be dancing to the radio, and other times, we were doing tricks into the pool. This of course would be mixed in with the occasional drinks with some having way more than others. Time flew by, hours seemed to pass with a blink of an eye. Before we knew it, the sun was already starting to set and the temperature was going down. It was still pretty warm but the water felt way colder now. The rest of us decided it would be best to take a break and get out of the pool for a while. I know a majority of the ladies are wanting to go inside and get some more shots. I am content with not drinking much more for the night. Someone has to be sober enough to make sure that Blaire doesn't do anything idiotic. It's either I watch her or Daisy does something and I have a feeling that wouldn't be pretty. Victoria made sure to get us all towels so we can start drying off. A clicking sound of the gate could be heard that soon followed with a voice. "Oh my, is the party over already?" The accented voice definitely belonged to a female and it was someone that I didn't know. This new guest attracted a lot of attention toward her, including myself. The woman had to be around Daisy and Victoria's height but the first feature I noticed were her piercing blue eyes. She had a pale complexion with long, black hair that had two white streaks in it. "I am terribly sorry that I have been absent for the past few days, love. Work has been brutal."

"AHH!" I heard a loud scream from beside me. That's when I noticed Mickie run at full speed toward the woman. "Kat, I didn't think you would be able to show up!" She said happily, practically tackling the woman and wrapping her arms around her neck.

"My my, I had no idea I was missed so much. I managed to get free and thought I would drop by and surprise you." Kat gave the woman a warm smile, returning the embrace. "Congrats on the big performance, love. I am saddened that I couldn't be there in person to witness it myself." Hearing the word 'love', Blaire started to walk over toward the singer and Kat were standing. I hope this isn't some kind of jealousy thing or if she's curious about Mickie's other friend.

"You should have seen it, it was the best performance ever!" B said excitedly which got the attention of the two. The blue eyed woman looked over to the shorter blonde, she seemed to be studying her.

"She's right, Katarina. Mickie killed it." Her manager praised the smaller brunette; Victoria and Daisy started making their way over as well. Katarina seems to be a super close friend of theirs that no one has mentioned so far. The raven haired woman looked back at me while I started making my way over toward the group. "Oh right, you haven't gotten to meet these two yet. The little excited one is Blaire and this is her friend, Gabrielle."

"Pleased to meet you both, any friend of Mickie's is a friend of mine." She gave the both of us another warm smile.

"Okay now that the introductions are out of the way, I want another drink! Maybe we can find some spicy party games to play to really get to know our new friends."

"Ooo, I like that idea Ria! Why don't we all start it off with a shot of tequila or two! I haven't had anything to drink for a while now. Hemme, help me make them!" Sarita spoke with excitement as she grabbed ahold of Christy's hand and dragged her toward the back door. Did she really drink that entire bottle already? How is the Latina still standing or even processing thoughts? I will never know. Brooke and Maria followed suit.

"I will go make sure that they don't break anything.. again." Daisy followed all the other women in the house.

"Kat, do you want to have a shot with us? I am sure work has been super stressful." The raven haired woman asked while I noticed Mickie starting to gather some of the stuff from the pool.

"You have no idea. I wouldn't mind a shot or two."

"Do you need any help grabbing all of this stuff, Mickie?" I offered, looking for an excuse to get out of taking another shot. Plus I don't believe I have had an opportunity to talk to the singer without everyone else around. "Here let me get some of that from you." I grabbed the volleyball and the beach ball from her hands. It's going to take another trip to get all the floats and deflate them and such.

"Thank you. That would be great.." The singer said gratefully. Turning around she started heading towards the pool house. Blaire looked conflicted back and forth from Mickie to the other girls taking a shot.. The brunette looked over to my best friend, giving her a bright smile. "You can go ahead without me, Darling. I will be right in."

"I'll save you a shot, Darling! Let's take them together whenever you get back!"

"Thanks, Sugarplum."

"Do you want anything Gabi?" Blaire asked, turning to me.

"Maybe some champagne?" Anything but whatever shots they are planning on having, I would like to be able to see my colors and hear sounds at the end of the night.

"Okie dokie!"

Turning around I followed Mickie around to her pool house. The pool house had another little mini living room. To one side she had a chest with all the pool items. She had another chest with a bunch of board games in it. "Wow, this place is nice. I've never seen a pool house like this."

Setting the pool stuff in its proper location, the brunette gave me a smile. She grabbed what I had in my hands. "Thanks! I spend a lot of time by the pool so I wanted a cute little house to hang out with friends." This pool house looks to have a mini fridge and such in it as well, it could always work as a guest house minus the lack of bathroom and kitchen appliances.

"Thanks for inviting us by the way. I know we just met and all but this is super fun!" I am having a really good time today; it's going way better than I initially expected. Mickie really isn't like a lot of celebrities you see on television, she seems so down to earth. The brunette is a woman that loves friendship and parties. If Blaire wasn't so in love with this woman, I wouldn't have thought her to be someone so famous. Now that I have her alone, I am curious about some things. Part of me wants to be blunt and ask but I don't want to ruin anything. "I hope Blaire is not too much for you, I know she can be a bit extra and all."

"I'm glad you are having such a great time. I love making all sorts of friends." Mickie seemed so ecstatic to hear what I had to say. She really does consider us friends already and we hadn't known each other barely a day. "As for Sugar Plum, I don't think she's extra at all. I find her pretty adorable."

I think it's cute that they have those pet names for each other, They barely call each other their actual names which is a good sign I suppose. "She definitely has her good sides. She has a way of charming those around her."

"You can say that again." The singer gave a smirk.

I decided to bite the bullet and see what exactly I can gather from her thoughts. She's had a couple drinks but you know what they say, a drunk heart speaks the sober truth. I need to make sure that the brunette isn't going to string my bestie along only to cut her off whenever she likes. I don't get that vibe from Mickie, she seems really genuine. I hope I am not repeating mistakes. "So what do you think about her?"

The singer didn't say anything at first in response to my question. It really looked to catch her off guard, she was lost in thought for a moment. "Well, to be honest.." She trailed off for a second. "Blaire really is a charming girl. That's what got me to stay and talk to her yesterday. That and the fact that she is pretty hot. I wasn't looking for anything but she came strutting over with that confidence about her. It really did draw me in. But.. I am not trying to offend her or anyone for that matter, how do I know that Blaire is actually into me? I have a lot of fame to my name and I know people would love to exploit that. I've been used because of my fame before. I don't want to go down that road again. I don't want this attraction to be because I am famous, I want it to be genuine. Even if I wasn't a singer, if I was regular ol' Mickie James, would she still be attracted to me? Like the sparks I felt whenever we kissed, my mind and heart are fighting each other because I am scared. Do I make any sense? I feel like I am rambling.."

Instead of some horny conversation about how hot my best friend is, I got some deep thoughts from Mickie. Thoughts that I wouldn't expect to hear given we hardly know each other. She's scared of being exploited for her fame, it has happened before. All the woman wants is a real attraction and the singer admits to liking B. Great. She does have a chance, I will have to choose my words carefully. "If I was famous, I would probably think the same thing too. There are people that would sink so low and exploit kind hearted people like yourself. I have known Blaire since we were toddlers and believe me. Blaire isn't the type of person to use you for your fame. She's very genuine and honest, and she's the type to say exactly what's on her mind. I believe that if you so happened to meet at that festival and you weren't a singer, she would feel the same. Yes Blaire discovered you because of your music, but I know she's attracted to you as the woman behind the voice. You should have seen her excitement this morning when she got your text. She screamed so loud, I almost went deaf. I am not saying right this second but soon, you guys should hang out, just the two of you and see what sparks flies. Make sure it's not drunken lust, ya know?"

The brunette pondered on my words for a moment, digesting all the information I had given her. Her cheeks became flustered and she nodded her head. "You're right. I should give her a chance. I don't know why, but something about her feels like I can trust her. Thanks Gabi!" Mickie exclaimed, wrapping her arms around and pulling me into an embrace. I have very mixed feelings about this hug right now but I am blaming the alcohol. I returned the hug back to her as she released me and gave me a warm smile. The conversation ended there just in case anyone else decided to adventure out to the pool after their shots. I'd love for this conversation to stay between the two of us but I am assuming that Mickie had talked to her other friends about it, maybe she didn't. We spent the next few minutes gathering the rest of the pool toys and deflating some of the floats, the rest remained inflated. We engaged in small talk but not much further than that. The singer ran ahead of me back inside the house over to Blaire, who met Mickie in the middle with a couple shot glasses in hand. I hope the blonde forgot about my drink. I watched them take their shots together with a laugh out of each of them. The others were by the kitchen table with Tryhard walking back over to the group with something in hand.

"Alright bitches, I say that we turn it up a notch. Who wants to play strip poker!" It was Christy that spoke, slamming a box of cards on the table. You know, I shouldn't have expected anything less from the redhead at this point. That's a big no from me, I believe I am the only one here that isn't drunk off their ass. Brooke was quick to roll her eyes at her girlfriend's antics. Are they dating? I'm pretty sure that they are or it's an open relationship. Blaire was too occupied looking over at Mickie, I don't want to imagine what she is probably thinking about but I believe I already know. "Come on ladies, don't be shy. Unless you are too-"

The blue eyed redhead was interrupted by a bottle getting slammed on the counter. It was Sarita, who probably had already drank B's weight on her own. I can't comprehend how this woman is still standing. She's pretty feisty, I can't help but like her energy. "You horny motherfucker, I am down."

"You know what, count me in too." It was Maria that spoke which seemed to surprise some of the girls as they snapped their heads over to her. "What? I am very comfortable with my body, I know I am hot."

"That you are. Count me in." Mickie was the next one to speak, her attention drifted over to Blaire. The blonde seemed confused about the stack of cards in front of her; I don't think she's ever played any card games that weren't old maid or go fish. "What about you, Darling? You don't have to play if you don't want too."

At least Mickie isn't trying to pressure her into doing it, I can appreciate that. She looked over at the singer before admitting. "I have never played poker before, Sugar Plum."

"Oh sweetie, don't worry. Hemme is more than willing to teach you how to play."

"Really! Okay, I'll play. Thanks Christy!"

Tessmacher let out a loud sigh as she walked around the table in between the redhead and B. She smacked Christy upside the head which caused her to yelp as Daisy was the first to laugh at the action. "Bad Tryhard, you are going to make her lose so she has to undress. I know you." She playfully shoved Hemme away and pointed to the chair across the table. I am surprised that she actually listened to the brunette, Brooke really does have her whipped. Blaire blinked curiously as Brooke spoke to her. "Don't worry Blaire, I will actually teach you how to play. Christina here will probably be the first one naked anyways, the game is never required."

"I don't want that visual of her, okay, thanks." It was the security guard that spoke in a deadpanned tone, shaking her head in disappointment. She downed the shot that was in her hands and took a seat at the table, to the left of Christy. "Whatever, I guess I will play as well."

Her girlfriend seemed almost surprised that she willingly decided to play. Daisy doesn't take me as the type to want to do something like this. She seems serious most of the time but her drinking has allowed me to see a different side to her. "Fuck yeah, I am playing too!" Victoria, like her girlfriend, downed her shot and took the chair next to her woman. "Plus I have another visual in mind." The raven haired woman said huskily as her eyes were glancing down at her girlfriend's chest.

"Get a room, you two." Mickie slurred slightly over at the couple, she of course decided to sit next to Blaire.

"Don't tempt me." The raven haired woman shot back which got Daisy to arch a brow over at her. The country singer looked like she wanted to fire back a retort but decided against it. Almost everyone was sitting at the table at this point, except for myself and the newest person that arrived, Katarina.

"Gabi and Kit Kat, are you ladies playing?" It was Brooke that spoke up as the brunette noticed that we hadn't sat down with them yet. Christy wasn't really paying attention and was already pulling the cards out of the box.

"Not really my thing, don't let me stop y'all from having fun."

"I am more than entertained with merely being a spectator." I decided that now was the best opportunity to take my leave before someone tries to sucker me into this activity further. I'll be more than happy to watch the chaos unfold at a safe distance; this way I can intervene for Blaire's sake if needed. The blonde can handle herself, I would like to hope so. Opening the patio door, my eyes scanned the pool area to see where the best spot to sit was. There were a couple chairs over toward Mickie's garden that were calling to me. Her garden really is beautiful and the brunette said she tends to it mostly by herself except whenever Mickie is away. Sometimes the best way to relax is to stare at the stars. It always brings me peace and I want as much as I can get before one of the girls starts screaming. Maybe I will get back in the pool for a bit before we have to head back to the hotel. Laying down in the chair, I noticed that someone else was walking around the edges of the pool. It was the only other woman that decided not to participate in this game. She was the last woman to arrive at the party and I don't know anything about her but her name. Katarina gave me a smile as I noticed that the raven haired woman was carrying two glasses in one hand and a champagne bottle in the other, with her. Setting the bottle on the table by me, she held one of the glasses out to me. "Seems like you could use a drink. Not sure if you fancy it but I brought you a glass of champagne."

There is something about this woman, I can't place a finger on it but she is definitely not like the others. "Oh. Thank you."

"Gabrielle, was it?" She inquired, I nodded in my head in agreement. I have never heard my name sound so… elegant before. "I see. A french variation of the name Gabriel, 'God is my strength.'" That is what my name means, interesting that she would know something as trivial as that. Katarina gestured to the empty lounge chair beside me. "Mind if I sit here? I don't want to intrude if you want some time alone."

Do I want to be alone right now? She's very formal whenever she speaks. It was very nice of her to consider that I might not want to talk to people at the moment. It would be nice to make a friend that isn't a horny fuck, that's for sure. "It's all yours." Another smile was directed at me as she made herself comfortable in the chair. She took a sip of her glass and I decided to do the same. Hm. It is pretty good. "Well Katarina means pure, does it not?" Along with like a hundred other names but I digress. She chuckled, amused by my knowledge. "What's so funny?"

"Is anyone ever pure? I see myself as rather infamous. I don't like being attached to stereotypes."

"I can see what you mean." That is a very valid point. Stereotypes are bullshit.

"Ha! This is what you get for earlier! Take it off!" I heard a scream from inside the house which I believe the voice belongs to Maria. I guess someone already has to undress and I am quite content with staying outside until they are done.

What followed were a bunch of cheers and even a few whistles. "Are your friends always this 'extra'?"

"That they are but I wouldn't change it for anything in the world. I cherish any moments I get with my friends."

"It definitely seems like you'll never be bored around them. Blaire is the same for me. She can be a little over the top at times, but I do love our friendship." I wouldn't trade her for anyone else in this world, she's my idiot.

"Ah, the hyperactive one does seem like she's the type to keep you on your toes. Balance is key in all kinds of relationships and my friends do the same for me." The raven haired woman paused for a moment to take a sip from her glass. She gave a cheeky smirk, leaning a little closer to me and pointed toward the door. "Plus between you and me, it's way more fun to watch their shenanigans from the eyes of a spectator. You can only win poker so many times before it bores you to death." So strip poker seems to be a normal activity in this group, I thought it was just a Tryhard thing.

"Oh? So you're a poker connoisseur, huh?"

"I am a woman of many talents but I can not simply reveal all my tricks to a stranger. You must understand."

"Well I am not a stranger, you know my name. But I understand, everyone has a little bit of mystery to them."

"Are you a woman of mystery then?"

"It wouldn't be a mystery if I told you, now would it?" I decided to match her tone the best I could, which caused Katarina to arch a brow at me, a smirk prominent on her lips.

"I suppose not, it wouldn't be fun knowing the ending without reading the entire novel to reach said conclusion." Silence fell between us as we continued to drink, yet the silence wasn't uncomfortable. Something about this woman seems serene which is rare in this friend group. She didn't seem loud, or wild. The crickets sang as I looked up and watched the stars. There was something about the stars that I always loved. If you learn to read them, the stars tell of your future and your past. I wonder what my future holds? The raven haired woman stood up beside me, bringing my attention back to the present. "Well I suppose I will leave you to your stargazing, peace seldomly comes these days. I am quite fond of this conversation, Gabrielle. I really wish to swim and relax, although I will extend an invitation if you wish to join me."

Kat began to undress beside me, folding her clothes neatly. Under the pale moonlight, I saw a reflection of her toned abs. Catching myself looking, I turned my head to give her privacy. It's not like I wouldn't see her in her bathing suit in the water, but no need to be creepy. There's enough horny fucks here. I don't want to be associated with that. "I don't know. I just dried off and it's pretty late already." I say as the raven haired woman slowly made her way into the pool.

"Oh? Well that's a shame. The water is quite lovely, really." The taller woman said, her blue eyes holding a mischievous look. "Well, if you want, maybe you can move closer to the pool and keep me some company?" She suggested, motioning to the chair by the poolside.

"Hmm, I guess it doesn't hurt to dip my feet in while I finish up this drink. Would you like another glass?" I asked, grabbing onto the bottle next to me. It's definitely convenient to have a bottle out here instead of having to traverse into lord knows what in that house.

"That would be lovely, thank you." Katarina said, a small smile forming on her face. Pouring some more champagne into her glass, I brought over both glasses and sat by the edge of the pool, handing over her glass.

"I'd like to propose a toast." The raven haired woman said, raising her glass in the air.

"Oh?" I asked, taking a sip from mine.

"To meeting new friends." She proposed. I smiled.

"To meeting new friends." I said, raising my glass to hers. We both drank our champagne. She finished hers in a few sips, setting her glass beside me.

"Are you sure I can't persuade you into coming into the pool?" Katarina asked as she pulled herself up the side of the pool to sit beside me.

"Weellll, I don't want to get too wet." I said, gesturing to my bikini. I hadn't really put my clothes back on yet, I should probably do that at some point. She pursed her lips as she looked at me. It felt like her eyes lingered on me forever. It almost made me uncomfortable, I am not sure what is going through that mind of hers.

"Fair enough." She said as she rose up from her spot. Taking a few steps back she dove into the pool, the water splashing all over the place, and more importantly, all over me. A small shriek left my mouth, which quickly turned into a laugh. Her dark hair glistened under the water as she swam to the top.

"Oh, I'm sorry, love. I didn't mean to get you wet. But seeing as you are no longer dry, you might as well join me for a swim." She said with a smile on her lips, her apology obviously a lie as she had meant to splash me.

I laughed at her mischievousness. "Fine, you got me. I'll join you after all."

Standing up from my spot, I took a few steps back, before jumping into the pool right next to her. As I rose up, I saw what she was wearing a bit better. She wore a dark maroon and black bathing suit, which made her skin look fairer than it was. She had a belly button piercing, which for some reason, I found surprising, even though I barely know her. Her raven hair clung to her skin as she stared up at the sky.

"That's the constellation, Sagittarius." Katarina said pointing at a few sets of stars that were close in the sky. "The philosophic wanderer." She said, musing as she looked at the stars

"You know of astrology?" I asked, her knowledge of the zodiac sign piquing my interest.

"Yes," The raven haired woman nodded, " I believe our fates are written in the stars." What she said surprised me. I had always said the same thing when it comes to astrology.

"I do too. It's why I always feel so close to the stars. For some reason, whenever I am going through a rough time, the stars feel like friends. Watching over in the sky." It has always been a source of comfort for me, more than people tend to attempt to understand.

"Hmm, that is an interesting perspective. I wish to get to know them better. So that I can uncrack the future."

"If only it was that easy."

"In my line of work, it would be very helpful. But unfortunately interpreting the stars is not easy, and the future is ever changing."

I didn't say anything in response but I nodded, agreeing with her. The future is ever changing. Even if I ever did crack the code of the stars, who knows what the future holds.

After that, we decided to swim around for a bit while keeping up the small talk. During that time, I learned that Katarina was born in Germany but spent most of her childhood in the United Kingdom. She had moved to the States whenever she was sixteen. Katarina seemed eager to learn about me as well so I told her a little about my childhood and more about my friendship with Blaire. It had been some time since I heard any noises from the house, frankly I don't know how long it's been since I decided to come outside. What was suppose to be my moment of solitude ended up sparking a budding friendship with the mysterious woman known as Katarina. We spent a few minutes outside the pool drying off so we didn't soak the floor. Katarina walked into the house first and I followed behind her. No one was at the table anymore and the house was quiet. Too quiet in fact. My eyes scanned the living room to see my best friend and Mickie sleeping on the couch together. I couldn't help but smile widely, the brunette was snuggled up to Blaire almost on top of her. Sarita passed out in the other loveseat. The others' locations were unknown. The patio door clicked shut as the raven haired woman was about to speak to me, we heard footsteps rapidly approaching. "Who the fuck- " A voice yelled out as Victoria appeared around the corner from the bedrooms, wielding a baseball bat. Might I add that the woman almost fell over her own two feet coming out here. She looked at us with confused eyes before lowering her weapon. "Oh hey ladies, I forgot you guys went outside!" She slurred, giving us a wave. Yeah, the raven haired woman is still pretty drunk off her ass.

"Babe! What was it? Are you okay!" Daisy ran out of their bedroom and looked over at the both of us with disappointment. "Oh, it's just you two. Baaabe, you almost gave me a heart attack." The redhead let out a whine as her attention turned to the duo that were cuddled together on the couch. She stared at them for a moment, arching her brow at them curiously.

"Let them sleep, I think it's so cute to see them together like that." Victoria told her girlfriend as she went over to the small closet by the kitchen. The raven haired woman grabbed a blanket and gently covered the two up. The manager pointed behind her toward the room that Maria had been in previously. "Gabrielle, you can use the guest room. We are going back to bed."

"Thank you." I wasn't going to argue with having a bed to myself compared to fighting with Blaire for the blankets last night. Victoria said a quick good night to the both of us while Daisy turned her heels and walked toward their bedroom without saying much of anything.

Katarina made sure that the door behind us was locked up as the couple disappeared from sight. "Well since Mickie isn't occupying her bed, I shall take it for the night. Try to get some rest Gabrielle. Have a good night."

"Yeah you do the same, Katarina. Good night." I wasn't certain if Kat was going to be staying the night or not but that answers my question. The others must have gone home. Exhaustion was really starting to take its toll on my body. My desire now was to get some decent sleep, the raven haired woman gave me one last smile and departed toward Mickie's room. Opening and closing the door to the guest room, I made my way over to the bed. Lights weren't needed, I laid down on the bed and let out a sigh. Today was a very interesting day but I had way more fun than I expected to have. All these people that we met were pretty cool, we clicked with this group of friends. I even got to have a deep conversation with Mickie and learned a lot today. Let's just hope that things continue down this path. I rolled over with a smile as sleep was calling to me.

Author's Note: Hey you lovely fucks, here is our final update for this year. It's a little late but whatever, at least we finished it. This chapter had a lot of fuckery going on and honestly, we just kept adding more and more to it. We got the introduction to a lot of good characters too. We finally got Mickie's and Gabi's POV in this story. Also, I know I surprised some of you with Daisy not being with Maria. Ha swerved! I think Victoria's known goofiness would balance Daisy's seriousness plus I wanted a different pairing. Hopefully chapter 4 doesn't take over 3 months, I will see you guys soon with another update but Imma hand it over to Tori for now.

Tori: Hey guys! Sorry for the late update. It took a little bit to write this, but we wanted to give everyone a good introduction and to set up the new forming friendships. Now that this chapter is over, I'm excited to write out the next chapter. Get ready for some excitement (and All of the GAY!) in the next chapter!
