"Where do you go every morning?"

Danielle twisted around so that she was facing Nicole. "Nowhere," she replied, the music forcing her to lean so that her mouth was pressed against Nicole's ear.

Nicole turned her head so that their noses touched. "Liar."

Danielle sighed. "Just dance. We can talk about it later."

"Later? Later... tomorrow night?"

Danielle pushed away, dancing into the crowd. Nicole frowned, before following.

They ended up outside, Danielle pulling out her cell phone in an attempt to ignore Nicole.

"I can't do this anymore, Danielle. Either you tell me what's going on, or this ends now," Nicole said.

"There's nothing going on!" Danielle replied.

Nicole scoffed. "Right... that's believable."

Danielle glared at her, and Nicole glared back.

"Just drop it," Danielle said.

Nicole sighed. "Fine. Maybe I'll see you around, then."

Danielle grabbed Nicole's arm and slipped her phone back into her pocket. "Look," she quietly began, "I was going to tell you sooner... but, there was never really a time, you know? And I just got used to the way things were..." She stopped, opening and closing her mouth a few times, before continuing. "I'm actually... in another relationship."

Nicole stared at Danielle, before shaking her arm loose. "Call me when you're actually free."

Then, Nicole walked away.
