Two weeks had passed since Ell attended the party at Bette and Tina's house and she was finally starting to feel settled in LA. Her apartment was coming together, school was going well, and she felt confident in her new job. On top of all of that she had made a new group of friends. The girls welcomed her with open arms. After that night at the party, they invited her out for coffee and to bars and nightclubs on the weekend. She had gotten to know everyone better including Shane and found out that the two of them had more in common than she first thought.

They both had similar upbringings even though Ell wasn't from LA. Shane and her both liked to party and were both pretty good with the ladies, although Shane was definitely the bigger lothario. They had become good friends. Ell and Alice had also become better friends. Though she was still new to the group she felt as though she had finally found her place in LA.

One day while the gang sat around drinking coffee at The Planet discussing their plans for that weekend Shane brought up a new place she wanted to check out.

"It's this new place just outside of West Hollywood, this grungy, underground nightclub."

"Sounds gross."

"Yeah and it's not a girl bar."

The girls didn't seem very interested.

"Whatever man I'm going, they have live music this weekend and the band is supposed to be really good."

"I'll come with you."

Ell said to the rest of the group's shock. Despite the way she dressed they didn't expect her to be interested in the more underground scene especially seeing as she was so new to LA.

"Cool, I'll pick you up tomorrow night."

Shane said. Alice looked at the both of them a little shocked before shaking her head and taking a sip of her coffee.

The next night, a Friday night, Ell stood outside her apartment complex waiting for Shane to come and pick her up. Finally Shane's car pulled up and Ell got in the passenger seat.

"You look really good."

Said Shane.

"Oh uh thanks I hope I'm not overdressed or anything."

Said Ell looking at her outfit; she wore a short black denim skirt with a ripped t-shirt, torn fishnets, and Doc Martens.

"No, no you'll fit right in."

Shane smiled and the two drove off.

Arriving at the club Ell noticed the fantastic atmosphere, it was dark, grungy and lively. Everyone was dressed in black with tattered clothing and chains dangling from their pants. The band was covering the Nine Inch Nails and everyone was somehow dancing or more so swaying to the music in a slow hypnotic sort of way. The walls were plastered with stickers, posters, and graffiti. There wasn't an empty spot. This place was fairly new and yet it looked like it had been there for decades.

The two went over to the bar and got a drink. They sat by the bar, talked and laughed for a little bit, while they had their drinks. Once the two had finished Shane looked at Ell.

"Want to dance?"

She asked.

"I don't dance"

Replied Ell.

"Come on, I've seen you dance with girls before."

"That's because I'm flirting with them."

"So? Come on, it'll be fun."

Shane got up and grabbed Ell's Hand.

"Fine."

She reluctantly followed Shane to the dance floor.

The two started dancing, Ell barely moving at first. Shane took her hands and started making her dance with her. Ell smiled and laughed. Slowly she loosened up and they were dancing and laughing together. The first song ended and the next one began, this time they sang "Closer". The tone changed immediately. Shane pulled Ell close to her and the sway turned slow and sensual. Staring into each other's eyes taking in the graphic lyrics the atmosphere had changed. The lights were flashing and everyone in the crowd was all over one another entranced by the music. Near the end of the song Shane leaned in.

"Want to get out of here?"

She asked.

"Yeah"

Ell agreed, shaking her head yes.

Shane grabbed Ell's hand and led her off the dance floor, out the door and to her car. The two got in the car and Shane chuckled, putting on her seat belt. It was a quiet ride full of tension. At some point, Ell couldn't remember when, Shane's hand made its way to her thigh. Driving with one hand and gripping Ell's thigh with the other Shane drove home as quickly as she could, the tension in the car building. Luckily her roommates were out tonight all at their new girls night "Twat! The Night". It was a long painful drive back to West Hollywood but they made it.

Getting out of the car, Ell followed Shane to the door of her apartment building. Shane fumbled with the keys, almost nervously, unlocking the door. The two made their way up to her apartment and inside. The second Ell closed the door behind her Shane lips were already crashing into hers. Pushing her up against the door Shane began to trace her hand up Ell's thigh slightly lifting up her skirt. Ell kissed her back passionately tugging at Shane's shirt suggesting she take it off. Shane obliged and pulled her shirt over her head. Ell put her hands on her and pushed herself off the door urging Shane to lead her to the bedroom.

The two stumbled into the bedroom still kissing each other hungrily. Ell took off her shirt revealing a lacy bra and reached to unbuckle Shane's pants. Her pants fell to the floor and Shane tugged on the waist of Ell's skirt pulling her closer. Soon Ell was laying on the bed as Shane pulled off her skirt and stockings. She hovered over her kissing her as she reached a hand beneath her to undo her bra. Shane kissed Ell all over and she let out a little sigh before their lips met once more.
