Baby Can I Hold You

'Mom it's coming on.' Elle sat in front of the TV watching for Carrie to appear. ' they said her name mom......'



'I hear you Elle.'



'So hurry.' Kelly followed the shouts of her daughter till she was standing in the living room.



'Your brother was crying......'



'Look mom she's on she's on...' Kelly watched as her daughter smiled up at the TV screen, She had to admit Carrie really looked good, she was used to seeing her in a pair of jeans and t shirt. On screen she wore a short skirt and low cut top, Kelly was now wishing she was there instead of in her front room .





...................................





'OK guys quiet down now....your wasting interviewing time.' The host tried his best to stop the screaming crowd. 'Long time no see. The host smiled at Carrie.



'Yea....ive been away' Carrie laughed, taking her hands from the seat she put them on her stomach giving it a little rub. Elle jumped up and down screaming as Kelly laughed on.



'Pregnant?' the host asked pointing to her hands.



'What?...no' Carrie moved her hands away from her stomach. ' Big lunch.'



'Ha well...i was going to say....you being pregnant would be something.......' the host turned to the camera. ' as you know Carrie happens to be one of the biggest lesbian singing stars in the country......' turning back to Carrie . ' and a little birdie tells me you've been dating someone new.' Kelly felt her heart sink as she watched Carrie's face fall.



'Well as you know my private life is kept private and I don't talk about it....what I will talk about is my new album.' Carrie gave the host a look hoping he wouldn't push the topic any more.



'Now come Carrie....you can't be dating who your dating and not expect us to talk about it.'



'Well I didn't expect you to know about it.' Carrie looked towards her manager hoping he would help but he just shrugged his shoulders.



'See folks Carrie here happens to be dating none other than Kelly clarkson.' Kelly watched on as she heard the whistles and shocked noises of the crowd. 'that's right Carrie here is dating Kelly Clarkson....and who knew Miss Clarkson played for your team.' The host laughed but all Carrie wanted to do was hit him. Anyway....we'll take a short break and when we come back Carrie will hopefully tell us how she managed to bag Miss Clarkson.' As soon as Carrie heard the director shout clear she was up and taking off her mic.



'I want to see who ever is in charge of this show now.'



'Wow.....we aren't finished yet.' the host chased after Carrie as she left the stage.



'Im finished.....i told you I didn't want to talk about my personal life....and you go and tell the world.'



'Hey sweetheart....your public property....if it's news ill tell it.'



'I am not your sweetheart.......and I will not be on your show again.'



'We aren't finished...' Carrie ignored the calls of the host as she walked towards the green room.





....................................................................





Elle sat happily on her mothers knee waiting for the show to start again, Kelly had sick feeling in her stomach. She had just been outed to the whole world. As the show started again she saw the pale looking face of the host and an empty chair where her girlfriend once sat, grabbing the remote she switched channels.



'Hey...I was waiting for mommy.' Elle jumped off her mothers knee.



'She's not on this part baby'



'but the man said'



'the man was wrong.' Kelly searched through her phone till she came to Carrie's number, letting it ring five rings she hung up.





..................................................................





'Never again....i want a plane out of la now... I knew I shouldn't have done this .' Carrie paced her hotel room as her manager sat watching her.



'Carrie I promise you I didn't know he would do that.....i didn't know anyone would know about you and Kelly.'



'Well you didn't know a lot did you....just go and get me plane ticket...i just want to go home.' Carrie closed and locked the door before picking up her phone, she knew Kelly would be worried.





'Hey baby.'



'Carrie...god I was so worried....you didn't hit him or something....you looked so angry.' Carrie sighed into the phone.



'I didn't hit him....wanted to but didn't....god Kel im so sorry...I didn't want the world to know like this...it makes it look like we're hiding it'



'It had to come out some time.....I had to come out some time.'



'But baby...I wanted it to be our way.' Carrie lay down on her bed as she listened to Kelly.



'Carrie I don't care who knows I just don't like seeing someone be so rude to you like that.....hell I wanted to hit him.' Carrie laughed into the phone.



'Next time your in la....hey did Elle watch?'



'Yea and loved your stomach rub..'



'Least something turned out right......they asleep?'



'Yep both laying beside me.....I didn't really like the bed without you.'



'So you filled it with little people?........You laying down?'



'Yep all snuggly.'



' I would say naughty things but doesn't seem right with our kids there.' Kelly laughed.



'Just tell me you love me then.'



'I love you'



'Love you too.' Kelly heard as Carrie's door got knocked.



'God...that'll be management back....they can't do anything right.' Carrie lifted herself off the bed. ' Anyway I'll let you go.....sleep good?'



'Yeah...night baby'



'Night.' Carrie hung up the phone smiling happy she would be home soon, throwing the phone on the bed as she reached for the door handle.
