"I thought we were never getting here" Nick said as he opened the door of their hotel room

"Well, same here" she said as she throw herself on the bed.

"Well, you didn't even told me if you liked the room" he said looking around the room.

"Well, it is nice, but I've got all that I need right there" she said as she sticked a finger to him

"Oh, do you?"

"Yup" she said biting her bottom lip

"Oh, you are so getting some" he said as he walked towards her and laid on top of her.

"Well, Nick, you know I love you and all, but you need to loose up some weight" she said laughing a little

"That isn't funny" he said pretending to be upset

"Oh, my big baby, are you going to cry now?" she said putting her arms around his neck

"You'll see who's the big baby now" he said as he moved on top of her and started tickling her while she was laughing hard.

"ha ha.. stop Nick.. ha ha"

He then stop and they just stood there looking into each others eyes.

"I never got the chance to thank you for leaving all behind and coming with me, i bet your parents were really upset for you dropping of college."

"My parents.. well"

"What? You did tell them"

"well"

"Tell me you told them"

"Ops, I guess I just kinda forget it"

"Oh My God!"

"Yeah, my mum is gonna flick"

"Well, that wasn't such a good start for us"

"Well, I guess I better give them a call huh?"

"YOU HAVE TO"

"fine, fine, gotta face them eventually"

Trish stood there zapping through the french channels, Howie was showering, they haven't said much to each other the all trip, and now, they were sharing the same room so eventually things had to happen.

"Hey, what are you watching?" Howie asked as he came from behind and kissed Trish on the cheek

"Oh, nothing" she said as she turned the tv off, but stood there not turning around to face him.

"What's going on Trish?"

"Nothing, nothing" she said felling a bit uncomfortable

"yeah, look I'm not blind, I've noticed that in some time you have just not been yourself"

"well, I've just been tired and all" she lied

"Yeah, maybe it's that, but I dunno" he said as he watched her get up

"Of course it's that Howie, I'm gonna take a shower now, ok? You can go on and sleep"

Howie watched her go to the bathroom, something was up, she wasn't ok.

Trish got into the big bathroom, she stood there for some moments just looking at her reflection on the big oval mirror.

"Man, I fell dirty, I fell so cheap"

She ran her finger through her hair as she felt the hot water on her body. It was if she wanted to wash her soul as well, wash away all the pain, wash away the guilt. With the hot water came the tears, as she tried to ease her soul of the suffering she was living.

**********************************

AJ was laying there on his bed looking at the ceiling, he didn't liked the felling of being all alone, it was if it made the demons to emerge from the darkest side of his soul, and he didn't want that to happen.

He got up and looked at the room, it was if it was the darkest room he had ever been, he then saw the mini bar.

"No, no I ain't gonna do this, no way" he said as he laid back and closed his eyes hard " No woman is worth it, just go away, go away" he said as he put his head under the sheets and prayed to that urge to just go away.
 

*******************************
 

Trish returned to the room as she saw that Howie was already laying there on the bed with his eyes closed. She then searched for her backpack with the few things she had manage to bring, she reached for a T-shirt and put it on. She then moved to the bed and went under the sheets. She felt as Howie started moving on the other side of the bed and reached for her, putting his arm on her waist, as she prayed he just stopped.

"hmmm... you smell so good" he said as he breathed the smell on her hair, and took her closer to his body

"Howie, please, I'm tired, let's just get some sleep" she said as she turned the little light off.

"Yeah right, fine by me" he said obviously upset as he turned to his side of the bed.

Trish just curled up as she felt a tear running down her cheek, and wished that when she would wake up, everything would be just ok.
