Desiree walked into the house around 8am, she didn't stay at her mothers house last night. When the girls left, Rachel called and asked her if she wanted to go to the movies, so she attended the movies with Rachel and crashed at her place.

"Where in the hell have you been?" Bridget asked from the couch.

Desiree smirked, "Oohh somebody missed me."

Bridget rolled her eyes, "No, it's just when I left, you were here, when I came back you weren't, you don't tell anyone where you went. You're reckless Des."

The rookie chuckled, "Reckless? Brit I'm grown as hell, I don't have to check in with anybody."

"Whatever," Bridget stormed into the kitchen where Stephanie was making breakfast.

"Buy me a ring and I'm all yours!" Desiree yelled from the front door. She took off her shoes and walked into the kitchen, "Steph why isn't mother cooking breakfast?"

"Ummm she's still sleep," Steph said.

"Why? That's kinda odd...I'm gonna wake her up," Desiree turned on her heels.

"DESIREE NO!" Bridget, Steph, Sky and Leigh yelled.

"Whyyyyyy not?" She asked suspiciously.

"Uh just let her sleep," Skylar said, "She's probably tired."

"Oooook, you're lying, I'm going to wake her," Desiree ran up the stairs.

"This isn't going to end well," Leigh-Ann said.

Desiree walked into her mother's room, "Mother wake-"

Scarlett was sleeping on Desmond's BARE chest, they both jumped awake, Desiree slammed the door and ran back down the stairs, "Start talking."

"What? We told you not to go in there," Steph shrugged.

"Why is he here? Why were they naked? I'm traumatized now," Desiree sat down and put her head down on the table.

"Desiree, relax, Daddy makes her happy, just please try not to ruin it," Skylar said.

Desiree groaned, "I hate him."

"We know," everyone in the room said.

"I'm going to shower and get ready for the funeral," Desiree said before going back upstairs.

Desiree came out of the bathroom in her underwear, Bridget was sitting on the bed waiting for her, "God You scared me."

Bridget glanced at the rookies briefs quickly before looking back up at her face, "So where were you?"

"I spent the night at Rachel's place," Desiree muttered.

Bridget raised her eyebrow, "And?"

"And nothing happened, I slept on the couch," Desiree said.

"Hmm," Bridget said.

"Hmm what?" Desiree asked.

"It's just odd that you two were together last night," Bridget stated.

"Surprised me too, so did you have fun last night?" Desiree asked.

"Yes, I missed you the whole time though," Bridget admitted
Desiree smirked, "I missed you too Brit."

Desiree tried to tie her tie, Bridget noticed her struggling and walked over to help her. Desiree smiled as Bridget fixed her tie, when she was done she looked in the eyes, "You look nice."

"Thanks," Desiree said before slowly leaning in.

Bridget backed away and cleared her throat, "I need to get dressed," she was about to walk away but Desiree grabbed her waist and pulled her closer.
