The one before the end

"Heartbeat racin'
I'ma put you through these paces
Be the best you ever tasted
Gon' stay on your mind
Come back everytime
Baby I'ma keep you Cravin' "
- STILETO

Kelley climbed out the bed. She felt overheated, limbs wrapped around limbs, not knowing where one body started and the other ended. She pulled her shirt over her head and threw it on the ground as she walked into the bathroom. She started the shower, running it cold to soothe her body, and stepped under the water.

Heartbeat racin'...

"Ahh. Thank God." Kelley sighed, throwing her head back to let the water soak through her hair and make contact with her scalp. She jumped as she felt hands wrap around her waist and rub soothing circles over her stomach.

I'ma put you through these paces...

"You okay?" She heard the voice of Logan whisper in her ear. She let her head fall back onto the supportive shoulder of the blonde. Logan took advantage of the access and began to leave soft kisses along the length of Kelley's neck.

Be the best you ever tasted...

"I'm okay." Kelley breathed out. Her hands instinctively found Logan's, grasping them tightly, when she felt more hands on her body. Each set worshipping her body, from her shoulders, her breasts, her back, her butt and her thighs. "Oh God."

"Wait..." Amidst the steam, Kelley's mind began to question what was happening. She opened her eyes to find Logan in front of her, and turned around to find Mel and Leo behind her. "What the..."

Gon' stay on your mind...

Alex groaned as movement from the bed beside her echoed throughout the hotel room. She glanced over at the sleeping woman, Kelley tossing and turning between the sheets. She had been repeating the movements like clockwork.

She didn't look like she was having a nightmare to Alex, despite the fact Kelley was dripping in sweat, she just looked restless. The brunette sat upright and looked at the freckle dusted face of her friend, and wondered what she was dreaming about.

The brunette stood from her bed, and walked towards her sweating friend in hopes of shaking her awake when Kelley shot up from the bed, eyes wide open in alarm.

"What the fuck!" Alex shrieked, falling backwards onto the floor. She quickly jumps to her feet, the adreneline rushing through her veins and her heart beating against her ribs. She rubbed her butt as she glared at Kelley. "That hurt."

"What the hell are you doing hovering over me like a serial killer in the night?!"

"I was about to wake you up." Alex insisted. "You've been tossing and turning for hours, you're lucky I didn't murder you!"

Kelley's eyes widened almost comically and she rubbed the back of her neck nervously. "Oh...Sorry."

Alex sat on the bed she had claimed upon arrival into the room days ago and stared at her best friend. "What were you dreaming about? Was it a nightmare?"

"Depends on your definition of a bad dream..." Kelley muttered, as flashes of her erotic dream replayed in her mind in vivid detail.

Come back everytime...

Alex smirked at her friend, an eyebrow raising in question and suggestion. "What happened in your dream?"

"Nothing."

"Liar." Alex laughed. "Was Logan in it?"

"Uh....Yeah. She was...she was there." Kelly stammered and internally groaned when she seen the expression on Alex's face.

"She was?" Alex smiled. "Why did you hesitate? What happened?"

The faces of Leo and Mel flashed in Kelley's mind again, and sent a jolt through her. She hoped her body or face didn't react.

Baby I'ma keep you cravin'.

"Nothing." Kelley cleared her throat. "Okay, goodnight."

Alex laughed as Kelley rolled over and pulled the cover almost completely over her head. She shook her head as she climbed into her bed herself and lay down. She was definitely telling Logan about this.

"Okay. Let me get this straight." Hope sighed as she sat opposite Logan. The blonde had arranged to meet the older, no nonsense woman in hopes of getting some advice from the mind and not the heart. "Your mother, who spent the last...who knows how many years, getting wasted. Drink, drugs. Leaving you to take care of your little brother, making sure he's fed, protected, going to school, despite you yourself going to college and working two jobs, and having to hide your own money because she would steal it...that award winning mother has shown up and asked you for a body part?"

Logan winced. "Uh...yes."

"And you said what, exactly?" Hope asked, her eyes piercing the blonde's as if she already knows the answer.

"I might have said yes, maybe. I told her maybe. Definitely maybe."

"So I only have one question." Hope nods.

"Really? Great!" Logan sighs in relief, happy to get straight to the point. "Shoot."

"Are you out of your mind?!"
