amazing, you know that?” He couldn’t help but kiss her again, this time nice and slow. Savoring her. Stepping away he found a box of tissues and removed the condom before throwing it away. Zipping up his pants he looked around for his skirt. Sky was already putting her clothes back in place. He really wished she didn’t have to. He had seen her a few times, but nothing compared to seeing her naked. Pale alabaster skin covered amazing curves. She wasn’t stick thin, like the women he went for in the past, or the many groupies he had seen. She was real. Once the both of them were righted and looked normal, he took her hand before unlocking the door.
    “I want to take you out.”
    “Out, like a date?” Was that what he wanted. Yes, that is what he wanted. After only having her once, he wanted her again. It seemed that fucking her out of his system wasn’t going to work. She was so much more.
    “Yes, a date. What do you say? Do you have a night off, or day off, or something with your schedule?”
    “Oh, Joey, I don’t know. My days off I’m with Milo. I don’t date.”
    “Don’t date, huh. Okay, how about a compromise. We can go out the three of us. Is there a place Milo likes that we all can go.”
    “You want to meet my son?” Skylar was lost at his statement. She just had her mind blown having sex with Joey, and now he wanted to take her and Milo out. Every other guy who had asked her out, hadn't wanted to meet him. If anything they avoided him.
    “I would like to, if it’s okay with you. Would Milo be okay with it?”
    “He would be fine I think.”
    “So, is it a date?”
    “Can I call you when I talk to Milo? I have to work tomorrow, but then I’m off. It’s the weekend and Milo doesn’t have school. He doesn’t like the park too much. Screaming kids scare him some.”
    “Well what if you both came to my house. You said he likes Transformers right? I have a huge theater room there and a pool. I can make some burgers and hot dogs.” She had to smile at the fact he listened to her.
    “I’ll talk to Milo, is that okay?”
    “Sure, baby, it’s okay.” She looked up and found she was back at the ER. “You go to work, and call me when you get home so I know you got home okay.” He kissed her one more time on the lips before turning the direction she knew as the patients rooms. Damn she was in big trouble with him.
    Walking back in she spotted Casey who was grinning like a loon.
    “OMG, girl, you really are seeing Joey Hart. How the hell did that happen, did he grab you and bite you?” Instinctively she reached up to her neck. She remembered things got a little rough and he did bite her, but she didn’t think he left a mark.
    “Crap, that noticeable? Damn it. Hudson’s going to be on my ass about it. Do you have any make-up?”
    “I say leave it, maybe the good doctor will see your serious and hit on me.” Casey winked at her before handing her a chart to a patient with irritable bowels and in need of a bedpan. Oh the joys of having sex at work, you leave, and you get the shitty cases.

    Joey couldn’t help but smile as he pushed his way into Booker's room. Booker was awake and talking, but he looked like crap. Dark circles under his eyes but the IVs were gone.
    “Hey, man,” Booker croaked.
    “Hey, you look like shit.”
    “I look better than I feel. The guys filled me in, and I’ll do anything. Fuck, man, I didn’t mean to OD. I was just having a little fun that’s all. No one ever told us how to survive this whole fame thing. It’s a lot harder than they led us to believe. Shit, Marty was all up in my head that it took me almost dying to see how fucked up I am.” Joey sat at the end of the bed and look at his longtime friend. Joey knew his past, knew his childhood, and all the deep dark secrets he hid. They all did. Each one of them survived growing up, now they all needed to survive this dream.
    “It’s all good. Just glad to see your ugly mug, man. But seriously,
