Shooting Stars- Chapter 2: Midnight Snacking

*Chapter 2: Midnight SnackingThe clock in the dining room reads 9:45 p.m. 'Chase should have been home by now.' Star thinks. She sits there and sighs, motioning for Aldalia, the Chief Maid, to clear the table. Star helps by washing some dishes and starts to chat with Aldalia.*"He's a good guy honey. Maybe he got caught up at the office." Aldalia shakes the towel out and grabs for a broom. Star shrugs."Yeah maybe. I just feel bad ya know?" Star twirls her hair in her hands. Adalia laughs, her thin frame heaving up and down with laughter."Honey, relax! If I had a rich man to wine and dine me, I might look like Cedric over there." She points to my boyfriend's butler, who happens to be short and stocky. His reply was a simple middle finger and a grin. The two arguing back and forth is comical and manages to make Star smile.*"Well, while you two bicker about nothing, I will wait for Chase." Star starts walking up the grand wooden staircase.*"Good night Madam Willis." They both say. Star shakes her head and holds her hand up, "Star is just fine. And between me and the staff, there happens to be some aging liquor in the cellar. I can't drink with my medicine and it would be Kadıköy Escort a shame*for it to go to waste. I wouldn't notice if some of it was missing."*Cedric and Adalia grinned. They loved Star, maybe as if she was their own kid. Most of the staff can remember when she first came to the mansion. She was thin and skittish, quiet,*and often stayed to herself. But now she stands before them just as sweet and beautiful as a butterfly. She always happens to leave money laying around for the staff, not like Chase never paid them, he always paid handsomely but Star would go the extra mile for them."Thank you, Star!" There's a pause and all you hear is Cedric. "Well, you fat fucker? Get some glasses! It's gonna be a looooose night!" This makes Star laugh harder. She makes it to the top of the staircase and proceeds to go to her bedroom. She waddles to the bathroom and runs water I'm the tub. A handful of Epsom salt, a pineapple bath bomb and coconut lime soap is added to the water. Seeing bubbles, Star strips down to her birthday suit and sticks a toe in the water. Perfect!*She eases her taut, golden body into the water. She sighs and Kadıköy Escort Bayan splashes in her ivory claw foot tub. She closes her eyes, not one for candles near water, and inhales the tropical scent in the bathroom. Time slips by, and eventually, she winds up falling asleep. She's awakened to the sound of a text message. Reluctantly, she checks it. It's a schedule for her chemotherapy treatments and she has it 4 times this week. She groans. She had chemotherapy yesterday and she's still feeling the effects. Nausea, vomiting, dizziness, weakness, and headaches. Against her own nature, she hauls herself out of the tub, reaching for a towel. She walks past a mirror before doing a double-take. Her skin was red and blotchy, her aureoles sensitive to the touch, and a small bruise was forming on her arm.*She doesn't react to it, just adding it to the list of other problems. It's been nearly a month since she's been getting treatment and Dr. Gus did warn her that skin changes would happen. 'Not today, just not today.' She opens the closet door and chooses what to wear. She has a huge walk-in closet but she picks nothing out of Escort Kadıköy it except for a blue thong. Star goes to her boyfriend's side and looks. 'Fuck it', she thinks. She grabs one of his t-shirts and a pair of his socks. Flopping on the bed with Moo Moo in tow, she curls up to watch a comedy. Her medicine has made her fall asleep again and now she's out cold.*Chase, walks into a darkened house. The dining room smells like Bourbon. He walks into the kitchen to see his staff drinking and playing cards. They jump when they see him."Master Chase! We were just um..." Cedric stammers.*"Its OK buddy, just where is Star?" His hands in his pockets."She has retired to the bedroom Master."*"Chase is fine. Carry on." He continues to their bedroom and starts to look for Star. He finds her and Moo Moo on the bed, curled into a little ball. She's sleeping with a smile on her face. His t-shirt covers her top half but he can still see her cute bubble butt. He kneels on the bed and kisses her butt. He lays next to her and runs his fingers up her back. She's still snoozing when he kisses her neck. No response. He moves Moo Moo ever so slightly and just like that she's up now.Panicking, Star starts to search for her bear. "Moo Moo! Moo Moo where did you go?" She feels a tap on her shoulder and sees her boyfriend laying on her side, waving hi with Moo Moo. She snatches him from Chase, "I told you about moving him. He's delicate and I can't sleep without him." She's feisty tonight.
