The first few days were hectic. Mariah had two orientations to go to, moved into her studio apartment which was furnished for her. She of course put her finishing touches on it with photos mostly of her and Liam and some art. Classes started on her third day and along with her normal school courses she also had art Classes, a photography class, a fashion design class, and music class where she picked up guitar. It was overwhelming at first.
Two weeks passed and she was beginning to get used to her schedule. She was getting better with her french too. She talked to Liam and her grandmother every day on the phone for the first few days but due to the time difference and the cost of the phone calls out became a couple of times a week. She emailed Liam everyday though, which certainly didn't feel the same. She did however have a lot tho tell him about her weekend visiting all of the local museums and of course the Eiffel tower. She expressed how much she missed and loved him but words really couldn't express how she felt. Her heart was broken. She felt incomplete without him.

Liam really wasn't the same after Mariah left and just by looking at him everybody could tell that he was missing her. The calls from Mariah where nice but calling everyday was a little bit insane due to the cost but at the time he didn't think so. The emails did fill the void but it just wasn't the same.
On a Friday night Liam noticed that Mel had came into the club that he had been working in for about a month even though she was trying to hide Liam noticed her and the surprised I didn't actually believe her look on her face.

Mel knew she was seen and so she approached Liam. "You do work here.....Britney said it but i didn't think it was true. Nice....um....uniform." She say down and looked up at him. "How are you holding up?"
Mariah was beginning to make some friends. Two local girls named Gina and Fran and a boy named Pierre. They invited her out to a local coffee house.

Unfortunately for Liam he didn't have a drinks tray with him and Melanie would have been able to see just how tight his uniform was, and considering her homecoming after party she would have a recent mental picture. Liam thought to himself thankfully she wasn't like some of the other girls and she had other things on her mind apart from the ogling him. He smiled at her and thought for a moment ignoring the fact that Britney knew that he worked here "its hard .. but ... each day it seems to hurt a little less". He pulled out a stool for Mel because he noticed that his boss was watching "can i get you anything to drink?"
As they where talking there was message about next week's ladies night and the amateur striptease competition with big cash prizes.

Melanie saw the boss and shook her head standing up. "No thank you. I should go. I have a cheerleading meeting. Take care of yourself Liam. I'm here if you need anything."
Meanwhile Mariah was watching the open mic night performers at the coffee shop. Her friends tried to get her to go up but she soon her head frantically. She was certainly not ready for that. She dismissed herself and headed for home. Here it was very late but she figured liams night was just starting. She got out her phone as she stood outside and tried to call him.

"hello??"

"I miss you to beautiful, better now that i am talking to you ... " while he was talking to her he stood in front of a mirror and snapped a quick photo of himself in his work 'uniform' and sent it to her "I saw Mel earlier she asked how i was doing. the cheerleaders don't get rowdy after a meeting do they?" there was slight panic to his voice but nothing to serious

"Love the picture" she giggled. "Ooh the cheerleaders sometime go out together but usually avoid Britney s fathers club. You might be safe." she said. Pierre came out then. "Hey there you are. Come back in. We miss you." Mariah nodded and then said tho Liam "i have to go. I miss you. I love you. You behave." she teased.

She was indeed curious about the contest. However she didnt even think about the possibility of Liam being in it.
A full week passed since that phone call. Emails were getting shorter but not stopping. Mariah was so busy and she seemed to go out on her free nights quite a bit. She also had got a job in the coffee shop. Keeping busy certainly helped keep her mind off missing Liam.

He knew that she was getting busier so Thursday morning Liam sent her an email saying that the prize from an amateur striptease competition at the club where he worked was $2500 which was just enough for him to buy him a one way ticket to Paris. He also asked should he try and win the money?

Whenever he brought up trying to find a way to visit she always responded with "i would love that but you shouldn't drop everything, especially school to do that for me." She hated the idea of being a reason for his life to go off track. She told him no about the contest, simply because of that reason.
Melanie however encouraged Liam to do it. "Besides the fact you have a hot bod and will win hands down, I know that despite what Mariah says....she needs you. She doesn't admit it to you but she has cried to me on the phone, wrote lengthy emails about how lonely and sad she is. She keeps herself busy to stop thinking about you. Im worried about her. I don't want anything to happen with you two. Youre Liam and Mariah....you're Mar-iam." She teased. "I think you should go to her. Surprise her. It would be the most romantic thing ever."

Liam did not know which way to go his girlfriend or her best friend? His heart melted a little when he heard that she had been crying and wrote lengthy emails to Melanie about how she missed him. He groaned audibly when he heard Melanie's nickname for the two of them. He stared at Melanie as they sat on a bench together and thought for a moment "well ..." he could see both sides of the argument but he did say that he would find a way to get over there to her "i did tell her that i would find a way to get over there to her. So i suppose i have to" he gave Melanie a peck on the cheek "I have gotta go sign up for this and i have plans to make"
He went to the club and put his name down on the sign up form just as Brittney was sitting at the front desk with it. Oh fuck he thought to himself.

Britney grinned as she saw liam signing up. "Well well look who we have here. Does your precious Mya know you are whoring it up for this contest?" she handed him an agreement form. "Then again I'm sure she is learning more than the language of love over there. You curropted her and let her go with that new found wildness to the land of menage trois. Good job." she laughed.
