When Alice woke up on Sarah’s bed she felt incredibly guilty and even more when she saw her sleeping on the couch in her bedroom.  She wanted to sleep with her but she couldn’t, like Tina and Shane said she wasn’t ready; thankfully it had been Sarah who suggested going to bed after some chatting and a few glasses of wine the night before.  Alice remembered Sarah putting on her pj’s and laying next to her on the bed, kissing her goodnight and drifting off to sleep, why would Sarah move to the couch?  She went to the bathroom and took a shower when she went back to the room she found Sarah sitting on the bed reading the newspaper, already dressed.

“Hey, how was the shower?” Sarah asked her smiling while she handed her a cup of coffee

“Hi, it was nice, thank you” Alice sipped her coffee and smiled “You have to leave early?”

“Not today, I thought we could have breakfast together”

“Wanna go somewhere?”

“Of course not, I cook and you keep me company” Sarah stood up and headed to the kitchen, Alice followed her

“Thank you Sarah, this is very nice of you” Alice said sincerely but with a trace of guiltiness in her voice, Sarah just smiled and hugged her

Tina arrived at Bette’s before the social worker who was late, Tina wanted to be late herself, the less she had to talk to Bette, the better, she knew that they would end up fighting, Tina had been all moody since she found out about Senator Grisham and she couldn’t hide her feelings and Bette would notice it.

“Hello Bette, how’s Angelica this morning?” Tina asked as soon as she saw her, she walked past her and went directly to the baby’s room

“She’s fine, she slept soundly the whole night” Bette sensed the tension between them like she had previewed it and even though she wanted to get things straight, the social worker could arrive and would find them fighting, she thought it better and ignored Tina’s grumpy behavior “Did you finish checking that project you were working on?”

“Yeah, it helped a lot that Angelica spent the night with you”

“Probably, but she never woke up last night”
