things looking for some that Mike could wear.

    Grey knew that Mike hadn't one clue as to what was going on. Only because Grey himself had no idea, and he was awake during the whole thing. Grey picked out a pair of jeans and an old tee shirt for Mike to wear.
    "Do you need anything else?" Grey was distracted but Mike didn't notice.
    "Um, well some underwear. Mine are still wet." Mike said hopefully.
    "Sure, just don't give them back okay." Grey said warily.
    "Not a problem man." Mike now headed for the guest bathroom. Grey was still looking for clothes to wear. He was still wondering what was going on with Jill. He was sure that whatever it was she was definitely talking about it downstairs right now with Charlotte. He found what he was looking for and went to his bathroom troubled.

    The girls were down stairs and sure enough they were talking. Jill was ordering Chinese food over the phone while Charlotte was looking through Grey's movie collection trying to figure out whether they should all watch a scary movie or a romantic comedy.

    After Jill had ordered she was wondering what to say to Charlotte. Only none of the questions she thought of for Charlotte seemed worth asking they all seem stupid. But she knew she had to say something.

    "Forest Gump, do you think the guys will like that movie? I like that movie it always makes me cry." Right then the Charlotte saw the movie she wanted to see.
    "Ooh I've got it Steal Magnolias; this movie is perfect it will make anyone cry. This will be a good test to see if our guys actually have feelings." Charlotte said as she turned around to get Jill's approval. There was a silence and Jill seemed distracted. Charlotte knew that there was something going on with Jill and now she was worried as to what was going on.
    "What's happening?" Charlotte said with honest concern she didn't want anything to go wrong.
    "I was just thinking." Jill's reply was dry.
    "You weren't just thinking I know you to well there is something going on and you aren't telling me. Is there some reason why you are not telling me?" Charlotte was a little offended by the fact that her best friend wouldn't tell her anything about what was going on.
    "No it's not that it's just that I haven't figured out how to place it. I do want to tell you I just haven't a way of telling that would make any sense that's all." Jill was hoping that Charlotte would understand.
    "Don't worry so much I say things sometimes that don't even make any sense to me. I just normally say the first thing that comes to my mind. Just let it all out I promise I won't laugh." Charlotte was being as encouraging as she could.
    "The only thing is I don't know what to do and I need your advice." Jill felt that this was going to be easy and she was right.
    "Wait, you have never wanted my advice on anything before. Normally you're the one I go to for advice, so this must be something big." Charlotte was getting excited now.
    "Here's the thing... I was thinking that I wanted to go all the way tonight. Only I don't know how to... well I don't know what to do exactly. I don't know how to get the idea across to Grey with out sounding like a complete ass. I was wondering if maybe you could give me some ideas on how to do it. I am not saying you're an expert or anything in this area it's just that you have done it before and I never have I wanted to get some pointers..." Jill was rambling. She did that whenever she got nervous so Charlotte cut her off.
    "I wish could help you but to be honest for me it just sort of happens I don't really think about it. One second I want it and the next thing I know I am doing it. I don't think that you have to put a lot of effort into these sorts of things they just sort of happen." Charlotte felt that this was the best advice that she could give. Frankly it was the only advice she could think of.
    "Yeah thanks that's really helpful." Jill didn't want to tell Charlotte but that was the worst advice she had ever gotten. Jill
