Shay walked over to Brian and Carmen
”Hey how are you? I’m really sorry about your parents”
”I’m good thanks and thank you” Carmen smiled
”Anyway have a great Christmas and new year” Shay smiled back
”Thanks you too” Carmen said
Shay walked away
”He’s bad…bad…bad” Brian smirked
”He’s not he’s just, the whole mess was my fault, I gave him false illusions”
”You can give me false illusions any day” Brian smirked
Carmen slapped him on the shoulder
”Ouch” Brian laughed
”Ok Jess can then, either or I’m not picky your both fucking gorgeous!”
”BRIAN!” Carmen laughed
”Let’s go back and have a drink, they’re going to be ages”
”Why you not signing?”
”We signed before the show” Brian smirked ”I had my priorities straight, I wanted to get wasted after the show”
”You just missed Jess’s dressing room” Carmen smirked
”This is your lucky day, you’re coming to the summer sets dressing room”
Brian opened the door and walked in
”Hey hey” Caroline smiled
”Where’s Jess?” Jess asked
”Signing, they were taking too long, we need a drink” Brian smiled sitting on the sofa with Carmen
”Hey beautiful lady how are you?” Steven smiled sitting at the other side of Carmen
”All the better for see you guys” Carmen smiled
”I heard you walked with your crutches today?” Jess smiled
”I did, I wanted Jess to see but she’s been so busy and I never seen her before the show”
”She’s been on the go all day babe” Jess explained ”We haven’t really spoken to her”
2 hours later Jess and the boys came in the room.
”I’ve been looking everywhere for you” Jess smiled at Carmen
”Where is everyone?” Jace asked
”Andrew, Lisa, Kenzie and Declan are with Stephen and John” Carmen said ”Mason is still with Bette and Tina”
”Well I’m afraid I’m crushing the party” Jess sighed ”I’m going home I’m dead, my head is banging and I just want to cuddle up with my girl and go to sleep”
”What if she wants to stay and party with us?” Brian asked
”Erm no thanks, Jess’s idea sounds amazing” Carmen smiled
”Traitor” Brian laughed
”Jess, Carmen has something she wants to show you” the other Jess said
”Really?” Jess asked
”Yeah” Caroline smiled at Carmen ”Let us help you”
Jess and Caroline helped Carmen up and handed her the crutches.
”Wow Wow Wow” Andrew said rushing over
”Back off let her do this on her own” Caroline said
Lisa looked at her sister and Stephen, John, Brian and Josh all stood silently watching with Kenzie, Declan, Jace, Lee and Mark.
”Baby steps” Lisa winked
Carmen slowly took her time walking over to Jess.
”You all kept that quiet” Jess said wiping away her tears.
”Only some of them knew” Lisa smiled
Jess hugged Carmen ”I’m so proud of you, and I’m sorry I wasn’t here to witness all this”
”You’re here now” Carmen smiled
Everyone smiled and clapped.
Jess and Carmen said their goodbyes and went to find Bette and Tina so they could go home.
