.:Laura... stuck up for her? Wow... maybe this friendship would be a little more then temporary... it didn't matter though Destiny just buried her head into her folded arms in front of her. She just wanted to leave... but Laura's arm... it was wrapped around her... did Laura actually care about Destiny now?
Destiny still not even looking up. This "girls night out" just turned to shit. There was no way Destiny could have fun any more that night..
Laura had looked back towards Cross, but by the time she did so.. he was already gone..:.

Laura didn't really even know what to say at this point. The scene was so confusing and...Just hectic...
Dez? Are you okay?...What was all of that about anyway? What got you so upset? He was just being his usual self serving self. Why this reaction to it?

.:Destiny lifted her head. Why the hell was she acting like this? It made no sense at all....:.
"I....I don't know Laura.... maybe its the fact that theres a god damn porno floatin' around out there with ME on it?"
.:Thank god the way she just said that didn't sound bitchy...:.

.:Destiny nodded her head. Having yet to make eye contact with Laura for a few minutes. Destiny just wanted to just curl in the fetal position and sleep... but she didn't. Instead she just looked forward, not knowing how Laura would react to this news...:.

Then it seemingly clicked in Laura's head just what the two of them were arguing about...Him not calling her...Her being with him...The mention of Pornstar...A tape being circulated...Her mouth dropped as her arms slowly was removed from Destiny's shoulder, her face in a state of shock as she replied...
Oh...You and...Buck?...
That was all she could really muster at this point...Her words seemingly stuck in limbo as she struggled to find something, anything else to say at this point. What was she to think? Had Destiny done to Vegas what she was claiming Cross did to her? Were the roles reversed and she just didn't know it? No. Destiny may not be the brightest person sometimes but...Even she could see how this situation looked...Right?
Her eyes shift to in front of her as her eyes seem to go into a deep stare. She thought that Destiny actually cared for Cross but now she wasn't so sure. She'd be more happy if she at least acted as if she did instead of...Basically doing what she accused him of doing? She was confused to no end...Almost nearing anger as she replied in a low voice, her focus not wavering from the wall in front of her...
Maybe we just...Need to call it a night Dez....

.:Destiny... she heard a slight trace of anger in Laura's voice. Just great. The one time she might be close to getting a friend in APW it just gets ruined. It always seemed to go that way. So Destiny just stood up.:.
"...yea..."
.:Destiny then started to walk back out of the bar. Was Laura behind her? She didn't know. Even if she was, its not like they would talk... The night had been great, then turned to one of the worst night's shes ever had.:.

Laura was behind her the entire way, her thoughts trailing back to the information she had just come across....It was a strange feeling...She didn't know whether to be angry...Or to even care considering she and Cross were done anyway. What were these feelings flowing through her? And why were they resurfacing now?
Destiny was walking at a pretty upbeat pace towards the exit and it took nearly no time for them both to find themselves once again feeling the Toronto night air bounce off of their person's as they seemed to be in a bee line straight for Destiny's car.
A few minutes pass, Laura following behind Destiny whose body language told a million stories about the night and how she was feeling right now. Laura could tell she was upset and most likely worried that she was angry with her. Was she? She didn't know honestly what to feel. Once they arrive at the car, Destiny begins going to open the door to the car as Laura stands opposite side awaiting the moment when she could re-enter the car. She instantly catches the look on Dez's face and stops her speaking up....
Destiny...Please don't look like that. I'm not...Upset with you or anything it's just...I think things may have just moved too fast with us trying to be...Friends ya' know. Or maybe it was just bad timing I don't know...I just know you weren't in any mood to continue on tonight after that little...Situation. Are...Are we okay? I know Cross may have but did I say something to anger you?

.:Destiny's hand rested on the door handle. The car was already unlocked.. so why wasn't she going in? Laura... Things moving too fast?... thats the only way Destiny knows how to take things. She has never taken it slow... it just wasn't her. She lived life in the fast lane, doing things when and how she wanted.
Was it coming back to bite?:.
"No Laura.... you.. didn't say anything wrong..."
.:Was that all Laura wanted? Whether it was or wasn't it was the truth. Destiny then pulled on the handle of the car door. Opening it enough for her to get in and sit down on the leather seat. She shut her door behind her... waiting for Laura to get in..:.

To say Laura thought that reply was a lie would have been an understatement. There was something more to the situation than Laura could see. But with nothing she could do at this point, she merely reached down to the door handle in front of her, opening the door and climbing inside taking her seat as she continued to focus her sights on the club in front of them. They were having such a good time and then...Just down hill so quickly. A long sigh escapes her lips as she feels the car start up, and within seconds they were pulling out of the parking lot moments away from being headed back to the Towers.

.:Her foot pressed on the gas pedal. Not to hard, not to soft. Just enough to go the speed limit in this area. Her mind wasn't racing. It was, still. Calm you could say. Her only thought was on her future. What would it hold? Would her and Laura become friends? That was the only thing that mattered right now.
But so far, their past together has seemed to be getting in the way of that. Destiny was truly trying to become different. But she has found it hard to shed her old self and image. It had become a part of her. She wanted..
Change....:.

Suffice to say the ride home was an awkward one. It was almost as if the car itself had taken on the demeanor of Destiny...Though it was traveling at a decent speed, it seemed...Distant...Cold almost...Fading off seemingly. Weird...
Her eyes divert to Destiny for a few seconds, her focus mainly on the road ahead. She wanted to say something but feared it would only push Destiny to possibly become angry with her over the ordeal Maybe she had pre-judged Destiny before them becoming...Friends? That itself was still hard to even fathom at a time like this. But perhaps she had thought that Destiny would always be what she was...When...Maybe the truth was , is that Destiny is like each and everyone else...Change is inevitable...

.:Destiny's eyes stayed fixed ahead. Just trying to get to the tower. She needed sleep. She needed to think about things. Maybe once her thoughts were clear, change would be easier. That she hoped for. For the chance to be friend people.. If they didn't like her even after her change, Destiny would have no idea on what to do with her self then...
They finally reached the parking garage. Destiny found an empty space and parked there.. She shut the car off. But she didn't get out. She just tilted her head and rested it against her shut window...not knowing if she should say something, or not:.

Another long sigh escapes Laura's lips as she turns slightly, seeing the state of the young woman...She seemed distraught and lost. Laura knew that their evening out together was over but didn't know how to officially end it...Should she say something or just leave the car and head for her suite again?...Indecisive on what to do she reached for the door handle opening the door a bit but suddenly stopped, turning back to Destiny...
Dez sweetie say SOMETHING will you? You're gonna worry me sick if I have to leave you like this...It can't be that bad whatever it is.

.:Destiny looked at Laura. She actually looked concerned.... that actually made Destiny happy. But, it didn't show on the out side. She still showed her emotionless blank stare...:.
"I.... I just realized how stupid I am...."
.:Destiny brought her head off of the window. She ran a hand through her hair...:.
"Believing Cross actually loved me and I wasn't just his little toy.... Trusting Buck and thinking he could for once not be a total ass.... Joining this business.... just, all of my decisions.... " [/center]

Laura sighed again, making eye contact with Destiny as she replied...
Destiny you're not stupid. Not at all. You're just human honey. That's all. We all make mistakes and we just have to try to learn from them and not repeat them. That's ALL we can do and it's ALL you can ask of from yourself.
Cross...I don't know. He's a strange one. From the look in his eye at the bar, I think he actually did care for you but...I don't know...Maybe he just thought you'd be better on your own. It's amazing the things he seems to know beforehand sometimes. Perhaps he thought you would end up...Well you know...With someone else anyway and thought that was the easier way to go about it.
As far as Buck? He's an asshole. Hands down. But even he has a good heart down deep. Believe it or not. But...That's no reason to downgrade yourself. Mistakes Destiny. Just mistakes. Do NOT sit here and beat yourself up over it. Just...Try to make better decisions in the future ya' know?

.:Cross? No... he didn't do that for the better out come for Destiny... only the better out come for himself. Thats all he ever cared about. Or.. thats what Destiny thought any way. Maybe he did what was best for the both of them. What if he actually did know?:.
"I tried that Laura....I honestly tried..."
.:Destiny sighed.... what if Laura could cheer her up right now? That would be good.... but knowing Destiny, whatever Laura could say Destiny might take it wrong..:.
"But, my past just comes back to bite me in the ass no matter how hard I try and make things better..."

Oh...I see...
Laura really didn't know what to say to that. She couldn't pretend to know anything of the woman's past or to know how to help her be able to move on from it.
Maybe...I don't know...I just...I just don't want you to be all upset over any of this. The things that have happened...They happened for a reason I'm sure. Maybe it was for you to open your eyes to some things that need to be changed in your life and...You've just gotta weather the storm until that happens...I can't say for sure...I'm just trying to help. Guess I'm not doing such a good job by the look on your face...

"Laura..... you are helping more then you know...."
.:Destiny smiles... well, it was more like a half smile. It was the truth. Destiny's mind was working Over Drive now. Just thinking of how she could just "Weather The Storm" so to speak. Maybe... just maybe... Laura was right. Maybe, all the events were to happen, maybe she had to be like she was just to realize how she should be...:.

She was glad to hear she was at least partially breaking the barrier of this mood of hers. That was something she thought as she nodded her head, giving a faint smile in Destiny's direction...
So...Are we gonna sit in the car all night? Or are you ready to get out of here before the security guards around here get the wrong idea and mistake us for Rebecca & Melissa alone in this car? *Giggles*
