Kelly

Kelly has been wanting to see celebrities & go to a party since she arrived in L.A. this New Years Eve/movie wrap party is like everything she ever dreamed of. Alison is gorgeous in just her street clothes, but tonight she is stunning, more beautiful than some of the Hollywood actresses Kelly has spotted already at this party. She cannot wait to share her suprise: she's bought a new bed, queen size! And neither of them have to work tomorrow: Byron is going out of town & Grok, thankfully, is going with him.

Even at the party, Byron puts Alison to work, sending her off on some stupid errand, leaving Kelly to eat dessert with Byron & his lawyer as they discuss some legal stuff that is way out of Kelly's league. It's all a little overwhelming, there is so much wealth & glamour around her & Kelly feels lost without Alison to guide her through it. She ends up hanging around the punchbowl, drinking up until she has the confidence to walk up to a few celebrities & tell them she's their biggest fan.

That gets boring & even drinking more isn't going to make her any drunker, so Kelly wanders around until she finds Alison, talking to the manager of this place, dealing with Byron's demands. Even all drunk, Kelly is impressed with how Alison carries herself, how well she handles the demands her job puts on her.

And just how all out gorgeous she is! As Alison finishes with the manager, Kelly decides to make a bold move & sweeps Alison down into a fiery kiss, like something in a movie. Wow, that felt really good! Kelly thinks as she lets her up, wondering for a moment if that is what it feels like to be Alison, confident & daring. A smoky aftertaste clings to Kelly's tongue. "Hey, you had a cigarette! I want one," she hears herself saying. Alison asks if she smokes. "I'm not supposed to," Kelly answers, and as it comes out of her mouth, she thinks, what a stupid thing to say.... she used to smoke a little in high school with the girls on the field hockey team, but when she tried to carry the habit into her married life, Richard, her ex, disapproved. Somehow his constant pestering & 'forbidding' it is still stuck in her head. "Not supposed to? Do you need a permission slip?" Alison quips & Kelly squirms uncomfortably. She is so stupid, she'll never be able to please a worldly woman like Alison. But Alison moves in closer to her, stroking her hair & kissing her cheek...she lights Kelly on fire with her lightest touch. She tells Kelly there's cigarettes out on the balcony. She has some more errand running to do for Byron, and she'll meet her up there as soon as she can.
