“Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the first masquerade party at the Planet! Of course, I’m the host of the evening, Kit Porter. I want you to enjoy yourself and just have a good time. Have a few drinks, laughs, kisses and hookups! Further ado enjoys tonight’s festivities!”

Kit sat the mike down and walked away from the booth.  Shane was leaning against the bar with her mask covering her face. She took a drag of her cigarette and looked around. Jenny and Elle and walked over to Shane. She looked over and pushed her mask up.

“I’m glad to see you on time for once in your life.” Shane shook her head and smiled.

“You look great,” Jenny smiled and twirled.

“Thank you, so do you.” She looked at Shane. “Have you seen her yet?”

“No, she’s not here yet. I hope she comes.” Shane sighed and continued to look around. Elle looked up at the entrance and tapped Jenny. Jenny looked where Elle was looking at. She touched Shane’s arm, and Shane looked at Jenny. “What?” Jenny pointed towards the entrance. Shane looked up and saw her true love. She never moved her eyes as she stared at Carmen. She looked and saw a woman standing next to her. Carmen put her mask over her face and walked with Dominique. Shane looked at Jenny and put her mask over her face. “Wish me luck.”

“Good luck,” Shane smiled and gave Jenny a peck on the cheek. She walked through the crowd to find Carmen.

            Bette and Helena are slow dancing on the floor staring into each other eyes through their masks. Bette pulled Helena close to her and swayed to the music. Helena moaned softly and bit her bottom lip. Bette smiled and leaned forward. She kissed her softly, and Helena laughed.

“Your mask is smashing my face.” Bette pulled away.

“Sorry,” she smiled softly. She ran her hand down her back and left it on her butt. Helena looked at Bette, and Bette smiled.

            Tina watched Bette and Helena from afar. Jordana looked at Tina and nudged her. Tina looked up at her.
