Moving to Chicago, I never thought it would be like this. I never thought I would have the friends I have today, I never believed that I would be accepted into there pack. I always felt like an outsider and they didn't do anything to make me feel like I was welcomed either. I had to earn my way into there pack and I did, but I didn't do it alone. In a way each of them helped me, it may not seem like it but they did. We're all alike in different ways....we all have our inner issues that were dealing with and we all have done things were not proud of. But we help each other get through that shit, were there for each other when we feel like we have no one left, no one on our side. We accept each other, understand each other, flaws and all, we're a pack, a family, and just like every other family we fight. But at the end of the day we stand together and put our differences aside.

"A hard pill to swallow." is a statement spoken when something is hard to accept or find reason in; but to Paige her lifestyle is like a second skin. She lives it, feeds it, and breathes it. She could never see herself without that "feminine" touch...coincidentally "natural" feelings take their course and Paige meets an unexpected U-TURN.

(When Our Paths Cross..) Thing’s take a curious turn when two “best friends” come to find out how much they really have in common.. Cherry and Dante have been close for two years now. They wouldn’t exactly say that they are “best friends” but they would say they just “know” each other really well. Dante had never crossed Cherry’s mind as someone she could “be” with. In fact that hadn’t even touched her mind at all. Dante was too much of a flirt, too much of a romantic player, who had initially fucked around all too much and gotten somebody pregnant. Dante was just the same, Cherry was just a cool ass chic from the day they met…but from an outsiders point of view you’d think much more was going on, actions speak louder than words perhaps? Life eventually turns into an unpleasant weight on Dante’s shoulders and Cherry is right there as always to help him through. Eventually a feeling in each of them starts to slowly build, but they go to GREAT heights to ignore this fire that has ignited itself. Will they meet each other at a cross roads and come to terms with it? Or will they completely miss each other passing by.
