- "Carina no."

- "you slept with me when I was completely drunk... And now, now I'm sober and technically I can control myself better".

- "you controlled yourself very well. You fell asleep in two seconds".

- "because I was in your arms"

- "yes but no. I don't have any clothes on."

- "that's not a reason"

- "we are all alone"

- "okay, I won't insist. You have three weeks to get used to the idea that on my birthday, you and I will sleep together."

Once she was gone, Carina had sent the song I Shall Believe by Sheryl Crow.

'Come to me now
And lay your hands over me
Even if it's a lie
Say it will be alright
And I shall believe

I'm broken in two
And I know you're on to me
That I only come home
When I'm so all alone
But I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly you won't give up on me
And I shall believe
And I shall believe

Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key

Never again
Would I turn away from you
I'm so heavy tonight
But your love is alright
And I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
And I shall believe
I shall believe
And I shall believe

That not everythin' is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
And I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
And I shall believe

And I shall believe
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe

I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe
I shall believe'

Three weeks had passed since Carina had called Maya to her house after her shift to apologize.

The brunette had asked the blonde to throw her a birthday party, she only had two requests. She wanted to celebrate her birthday only with Maya and she wanted to celebrate her birthday at the blonde's house.

They had an appointment at eight o'clock and Carina had prepared herself, she had brought some stuff for sleeping and for the next day. In reality she had three requests. She had told Maya that she had to sleep with her.

Maya opened the door for her and instantly both their hearts went into tachycardia.

- "your hair!"

- "don't you love it?!" Maya asked as she stroked her hair.
