Soundstage"Ugh." Maya quietly groaned as she caught a glimpse of Prince and Nikolai strolling hand in hand.
"Say, what's your deal?" Lori walked over asking while her arms folded.
"What?" Maya jumped as her voice lightened.
"I heard that groan and I see where you were looking."
"What on earth are you talking about?" Maya chuckled. "I'm just simply stretching, that's all.
Lori rolled her eyes with a smirk. "Nikolai must really have you bothered. He's with her whether you like it or not. Why don't you just lay off?"
"And why don't you lay off me? I'm not going to sit here and take this ridicule as if I've done something!" Maya shrieked. "Just what are you accusing me of?"
"I'm not accusing you of anything, but your intentions are as clear as crystal. They're in a relationship sweetie." Lori said with a slight yell while parading off. "You can't always have what you want."
Maya sharply turned her attention away from Lori and glanced over the kissing couple. "No one ever underestimates me. I always get what I want."

Nikolai's POV
"So how was the getaway?" Marie asked as we walked into the kitchen.
"It was everything and more of what I could've asked for." I replied while taking a bite from a bagel. "You know Prince, he's always got something up his sleeve."
"I'm so glad you two had fun. You two really compliment each other."
"Hmph." Maya scoffed as she listened to the conversation from the hall.
"That means a lot to me, thank y--"
"Hi girls!" Maya greeted cheerfully as she strutted into the kitchen. "Enjoy the rehearsal?"
"Everyone was amazing, you? Pretty fair I'll say." Marie chuckled as Maya's smile quickly faded.
"Anyway Nikolai, I'm sure you had a wonderful weekend. What all did Prince do for you?"
"I'd rather not speak so much and give details. Some things are kept between he and I you know? The two people actually in the relationship."
"Oh honey it's not serious enough to be top secret or anything. I was just asking, but in other news you should really put that bagel down, those hips are spreading way wide you know."
"Excuse you?" Marie blurted.
"Oh are they now? Well, Prince sure doesn't seem to mind, nor is he complaining. Now if you'll excuse us, Marie and I have some work to do."

"She's gotten beside herself, how dare she say something like that to you?" Marie said with a disgusted look.
"Marie I'm not worried honestly." I grinned. "I'm quite amazed at her antics."
"That child has issues. I don't trust her."
"You're not the only one who doesn't. She's quick to play innocent around Prince but as soon as he's out of sight, she's her natural evil self."
