**Something New**  

A couple of days had passed and Lilly and Sadie began to accept what had happened and forget about it. Bette and Lilly were sitting by the pool while Tina and Sadie were swimming.

“Uhh Bette I wanted to apologize for my behavior the other day. I was totally immature.”

“Lilly you don’t need too. I should be the one actually apologizing. You’re Tina’s best friend and I understand that you are just trying to protect her. Besides we all just met two and half weeks ago I’d freak out too.”

“Whoa I did not freak out I was just a little… shocked that’s all.”

“In other words you freaked out.”

“What ever, anyway besides that, even if we had just met it has seemed like we’ve been friends for more than a couple of weeks.”

“Why thank you that really does mean a lot to me.”

That night they decided to have dinner in Bette’s room on the patio.

“Oh I am so full.”

“Yeah me too.”

“Thanks for the food Bette it was great. How did you learn how to cook like that?”

“Well…I…okay I got a confession to make.” She puts her water down. “I can’t cook and I just ordered room service.”

“Ooh my god, the deception,” Sadie says.

“I know I am so bad trying to get you guys to think that I can cook but I really can’t.”

“So you can’t cook what’s the big deal, that’s what microwaves are for.”

“Lilly seriously can’t cook meaning I can’t make a decent bag of popcorn.”

“Oh”

“So what do you do than?”

“Well I eat out a lot. That’s why I always say thank god for take out menus.”

“Well here’s to take out menus.” They all lifted their glasses.

Bette just couldn’t help but smile.

“So what’s that smile about?”

“Well I never thought that I would go some where to be alone and end up making friends with the three most wonderful and beautiful women here in Napa Valley.”

“Ahhh you’re going to make us cry.”

“Well it’s the truth.”
