Alice stumbled out of the cab, raising her hand which was grasping her sandals above her head in an attempt to steady herself. Dana quickly got out her side of the car and rushed round to grab the side of her drunken friend before she fell over into the gutter. Shane exited the cab after Alice and placed the blonde’s arm over her shoulder, earning her a lop-sided smile from the journalist.
"You guuuys…I love you guys," Alice said lazily, attempting to grab Dana into a headlock and squeezing Shane tightly towards her body.
"Yup we love you too Al, now let’s get you upstairs…easy now," Shane was still a little tipsy but with Dana’s help was able to navigate Alice around a bollard and towards the entrance to the hotel.
Bette and Tina were last to exit the cab. Bette stayed to pay the cab driver as Tina quickly followed the group inside, holding Alice’s sick bag at arm’s length as she caught up with her friends in the lobby.
As they stood waiting for the elevator, Alice had fully passed out and was now being completely held up by Shane and Dana. Alice’s head rolled to the side, drooling slightly as her mouth hung open on Dana’s shoulder.
"Thanks for that Al…" Dana sighed, gently rolling Alice’s head back to face forward.
Bette approached the group as the elevator doors opened and the five women stepped inside, pressing the button for their floor.
As they reached the door to Alice and Shane’s room, Dana gently slid the keycard out of Alice’s pocket and opened the door leading the drunken blonde inside.
They lay Alice on the bed and Dana tucked her in, laying her on her side.
"Um, here’s the bag," Tina carefully handed the sick bag to Shane.
"Thanks." Shane muttered, gently placing the bag on the floor next to the bed.
"Are you okay here on your own Shane?" Bette asked from the doorway.
"I’m gonna stay for a while, make sure she’s ok." Dana said, gently stroking Alice’s hair.
Shane shrugged and head out onto the balcony for a cigarette.
"If you need us you know where we are." Tina said.
"And don’t stay up too late, I’m guessing you’ll need some rest for tomorrow." Bette added, softly smiling at the athlete.

good job, but poor tina.
I think Tina’s dad just did the wrong thing…why so many don’t speak to parents. Great chapter and I can’t wait to see if Better heard the conversation. I sure hope she did. pps
Great Chapter…Now I hope Bette will come out and comfort her! Thanks. please post soon! :)
Condemnation from the family is very real and very painful. I wonder why Tina’s father called. Is something wrong with her mother? Just as Tina was coming to grips with her choice, she gets that telephone call. Where is the love, besides from Bette?
Well, Tina’s dad has no option but to learn to accept his daughter as she is, or learn to live without her in his life. She doesn’t need “fixing”. Time will tell. Tina had seemed to be working up to taking the next step with Bette, but I think that horrid phone call just put the kibosh on that. Great story, thanks for the chapter.
Hope her father wasn’t calling to tell her that her mother was ill or something. And if he called to just force his opinion on her then Tina gave the correct response. Shame on him for trying to change her. I was hoping that they would have a chance to explore what Bette was feeling after her thoughts on the beach and then maybe they could have advanced their relationship to the next level. I think Tina was definitely ready for that change. Great update. Post when you can.

Tina does not need fixing, he does. I’m glad that Tina stood up to her father.I hope that B&T talk about the strain that is developing between them. I understand Tina hesitance, but she needs to stop riling up Bette if she is not going to be romantic with her. Great update. PPVVVVS
Wow, good chappie. Well done. I like the way you’re exploring Tina and what she’s going through. Thanks!
I agree with you about Tina – such an interesting and complex character, not often given enough time to fully explore it on the show. Thank you for exploring a little of her background here. I hope she and Bette talk soon, so they can better understand what the other is going through.
Tina is just having a hard time all over the place huh? I hope her dad wasn’t calling to say he was sick or her mom died or something… You’re an excellent writer.. Your version of Tina is similar to the show while also remaining true to the character she is in your story… well done! PPS
Well I hope Bette heard Tina on the phone and comes out quickly to comfort her, and maybe it will lead to her opening up as to why she has been closing up since the beach! These two gotta talk before anything else can happen! PPS:)
Well he can choose to love Tina accept it or loose a daughter…
to call his daughter at 2am to say ‘we can fix you’… wow, tina’s dad is really messed up. i like the way you processed tina’s thoughts as to why she’s not yet ready. i hope bette doesn’t put up any more walls. PPS!
I hope Bette heard the conversation between Tina and her father. Maybe she will understand why Tina is hesitant to take the next step with her. She needs Bette to comfort and love her, not put up her anti abandonment walls and push her away. pps
trust bette heard all that and can comfort tina. maybe that’s whats most important right now for tina rather than sex.
Don’t like Tina’s dad, poor Tina that was sad. Let see if Bette heard Tina conversation or not and they need to talk. Please post more, thanks!
