Perviously TINA: “I don’t think that’s a good idea Bette.” Here it comes, total shutdown. “Besides you know the situation. I’m straight.” I can’t help it, not after tonight. Just hearing her say that, it made me smile a little. “And Grace has a crush on you.” I don’t think that’s an issue. “And I would never do that to a friend, let alone a best friend.” Damn, that’s honorable, even if it hurts like *****. I understand I think. It’s complicated. And she doesn’t want complications, I get it. Doesn’t mean I have to like it. I think we’re done for tonight, I got nothing else to say.

BETTE: “Ok, I get it, goodnight Tina.” That’s all I could say. I had nothing left. So I turned and left her standing there alone with her choice.

The Morning After 2: Bette

“Tell me. TELL ME!!!!”

That’s the first thing I heard when I reached my bedroom. I think it’s coming from next door. Tina and Grace’s place. Whatever it is, it can’t be good. I thought those two were thick as thieves.

Anyway I have to change into my comfortable clothes for my talk with Alice. I really don’t know how much I can say to her. After all she is my best friend. But on the other hand, after her antics last night, while subtle (for Alice anyway) told me that things may not be completely clear to Alice about the whole “friends only” thing.

God I hope that fighting doesn’t have anything to do with what happened last night. I know that Grace is attracted to me and I to her. I think. I don’t really know anymore after the whole experience with Tina. She’s putting a serious wrench on my plans to lead an uncomplicated life in LA.

There all finished. I think yoga pants and a white tank is casual enough. Wait maybe white’s not a good idea. You see, I’m not wearing a bra. I should change.

10 Minutes later…..

There we go. Red track pants and a black tank top. *****, look at this room. Who knew that picking out clothes to lounge in would be such a chore. Am I turning into an LA girl already?
