will contain "mature" language mentions of depression, SA Mostly follows the show All rights go to NBC Good Girls, I only own my character and her story.

Beth pays Rio a unexpected visit at their warehouse ;)

This is another story, this time being an AU! Rio decides to visit the strip club, having an encounter with a sweet strawberry blonde dancer. - This is only my second fic, the first one is still continuing, but I wanted to write an AU. I'm excited to produce my ideas to this platform. I hope y'all enjoy :) - PS - nothing is beta'd or put through a grammar checker, if there are typos that I miss lmk in the comments! None of the characters in this story are mine except for Sugar/Frances. The rest of the strippers are my portrayal of certain names, more explained below. A little fun fact, all the strippers are named after roles Christina Hendricks has played from Firefly (Saffron), The Family Tree (Alicia), ER (Joyce), Life As We Know It (Allison), Lost River (Billy), and of course Good Girls (Beth)

Beth and Rio are struggling to conceal their feelings for one another. But the truth must come out at some point. But what will happen after that? That's up to me ;) I don't own any of the characters in this story all of them belong to the creators of NBC show Good Girls ✨completed✨

Pain Pain radiated through her body, causing her fingertips to go numb ever since that faithful day. The day she got left behind as Rio's past when she was supposed to be his future. She used to believe that he was going to be her future with his ring on her finger and their first child together in her womb. That day he stole her happiness, leaving her unable to smile again. Now she lies there, in a pool of thick, red, sludge that quickly gets soaked up by the mattress. Her unborn child spilling from her body. It feels more like her life force is being sucked from her soul and there's pain. But still no Rio...

Beth finally lets Rio "teach her s'mthing." This raises tensions between Beth and her husband Dean. When Rio finds an unexplained bruise on Beth's cheek, tragedy strikes.
