The aftermath
'i can't do this anymore Crystal! I can't believe you would do this!' Gigi yelled in the middle of their living room, tears in her eyes and falling rapidly down her fare cheeks.
'i'm sorry Gigi please. please don't leave me. i was drunk! you know how i get when i'm drunk, i would never purposely hurt you. i love you, please don't leave' that was true, Crystal had a tendency to get horny when she was drunk. but that wasn't why Gigi was upset, she was hurt because this happened 3 months ago and a friend of hers showed her a picture of Crystal kissing some random girl that neither of them knew at the bar she performed at. She was there that night too, so the fact that Crystal didn't tell her really hurt.
'you kept it from me Crystal! you could've told me and i would've been less mad. But no, i had to hear it from someone else. forward to take Gigi's hands but she pushed them harshly away. 'No Crystal! you don't just get to apologise and touch me and expect everything to be okay' Gigi was sobbing on the floor and Crystal crouched down in front of her.
'i know, and i'm really really sorry. its been eating me up this whole time and i'm sorry i didn't tell you. but it was one kiss that meant absolutely nothing to me, i didn't think you'd find out because i didn't think it was a huge deal but i'm sorry okay' they rested their foreheads together as they both cried.
'i think i just need space for a day or two' Crystal sadly nodded and got up onto her feet, helping Gigi to hers.
'i completely understand. i can go now if you want.'
'no, stay please, i'll go'
'where are you gonna go?'
'i'll text Jackie and ask if i can stay with her and Jan' They looked at each other once more before Gigi disappeared upstairs.
About 30 minutes later Gigi came back downstairs with an overnight bag in her hand and fresh clothes on.
'i'm leaving now' Gigi spoke sadly from behind the sofa. Crystal shot up and walked over to Gigi, still crying.
Crystal took both of Gigi's hands and looked into her eyes.
'i love you' she whispered.
'i love you too' they shared a slow, soft kiss before Gigi pulled away and left.
She pulled out her phone from her pocket and rang Jackie.
'hey babe, what's up?' Jackie could hear Gigi's sobs and grew worried. 'Gigi baby what's wrong?'
'me a-and Crystal got i-into a fight a-and i said i needed space but i- i have no where to go' Gigi broke down on the front door steps as Jackie spoke sweet nothings into the phone trying to calm her down.
'where are you?' Jackie softly asked.
'at my house sitting on the steps'
'i'll be 5 minutes okay, you can stay with me and Jan' the jingle of keys was heard from Jackie's side of the phone and her front door open in and closing.
'what about Jan?'
'she loves you G, we're all best friends, she'd love to have you stay. and you know how she is when one of us is sad, she turns into full mum mode. i promise she'll be fine' Gigi nodded even though Jackie couldn't see her.
'i love you Jackie. i'm sorry for bothering you like this i just didn't know anyone else who knows me and Crystal'
'don't be sorry, you're not bothering me at all. you're Gigi and Crystal, you're inseparable, you'll work things out but i do think space is a good idea for now. you can stay as long as you need. and i love you too G' Jackie's car pulled up in front of their house. They ended the call and Jackie came running up to Gigi, pulling her into a supportive hug.
'come on, let's get you warm' they walked to Jackie's car and got in. The whole journey was quiet, Gigi spent the whole time looking out the window while Jackie kept her eyes on the road, looking at Gigi a few times to make sure she was okay, the only sound coming from the radio of Jackie's black jeep.
After a short drive, they arrived at Jan and Jackie's apartment complex. Jackie looked over to see Gigi had fallen asleep as was flat out. She didn't have the heart to move her so she texted Jan to come get Gigi, considering Jan was much stronger than Jackie, and Jackie grabbed Gigi's bag.
