Another week passed, and the ache of her moments with Trina began to subside into a very acute melancholy. Then one weekend evening, Trina phoned her...."Just wanted to talk a little," she said."Really?" Laura asked, unbelieving, not letting herself get her hopes up."Shawna is away with her daddy, and I got lonesome. I got friends, but I didn't want to talk to them." I'm always available," Laura nearly bubbled over."You want to come over here?" Trina asked. "You could. You could stop and buy some. .. hello. Is Vikki there?" Who's calling?" It's Hanna..." Hmph." The line went silent for a moment, then crackled and Vikki's voice came through the earpiece."Hey Hanna. What's up?" Um... who was that guy I just spoke to?" Ian? He's my boyfriend. He stayed over last night."Again, Hanna nearly dropped the phone. "Your boyfriend? He sounds old enough to be your dad... Where'd you meet him?"Vikki hadn't needed to explain that. It was obvious where they'd met. The same place Vikki met all her dodgy. She could tell by the tone of his voice, he wasn't happy to hear this."Why didn't you tell us? You could've moved in with Rita and me!" No, Rex, you guys have your own lives. You don't need me. Besides I think you know how I feel about Keith. We've fallen in love." Rex did not want to hear this.When she was through with Rex on the computer, Rita instant messaged her a little later."I hear you're living with Keith now? Wow! That developed quickly." Rita said happily. Now maybe Rex would leave. "Shit! I'm late," she announced. "Sorry, Faith --- I mean, Eliza. Duty calls. I'm afraid I can't escort you home. "Eliza chuckled at the mention of her character name in 'Buffy.' "It's alright. I can find my way home from here. You working?"Tifa sighed. "Yeah. Night club. The usual stuff." What's it called?" Eliza asked."The Seventh Heaven," Tifa replied.Eliza chuckled. "Sounds like a TV show, but I guess the name's fine. It also explains the outfit, huh," Eliza replied. Then she covered her.
