Chapter 6

Bette couldn’t focus on her homework anymore so she decided to go online at msn messenger. She saw that none of her friends were online so she was about to go offline when Tina started talking. A smile came up to her face when she thought of their double date last week.

Tina: Hey you, how are you?

Bette: Hmm not that good at the moment.

Tina: I’m sorry to hear that… want to talk about it?

Bette: Yeah but none of my friends are there right now… and it’s just a stupid argument between Harry and me.

Tina: You could tell me if you feel comfortable? I’m willing to listen.

Bette: Thanks… Well… It’s just…

Tina: Go easy on yourself oke, I’m sure it’ll be okay!

Bette: Alright.. the point is that Eric wants to have sex all the time and I shouted at him that it doesn’t work that way, not anymore and he walked out of his own dorm! Now I’m sitting here feeling guilty while he is drinking at the bar.

Tina was taken aback with this answer, she didn’t know what to say. How come those two can be in a relation for so long only to jump each other every time they see each other?

Tina: I completely agree with you, if you wanna know. I’m sure he will understand when you tell him again that you want to be in a real relationship where you know everything about this other person.

Bette: Maybe you’re right.. I think I’m heading downstairs now to go and get him… hope he’s not too wasted because I’m not gonna drive in that old car of him myself haha

Tina: Good luck and be careful, okay? Don’t let him drive when he’s too wasted.

Bette: Are you online later today? I enjoy talking to you and we could get to know each other some more.

Tina: Yeah I’ll be there, I’m busy doing my homework but I can do both at the same time haha

Bette: Alright, talk to you later! Byeee

Tina: Bye

Bette walked downstairs and found Harry at the bar, luckily he had only had one beer according to the barkeeper so she dragged him to the door and ordered him to take her home. She checked if she had taken everything with her. Especially her laptop so she could talk to Tina later this day. During the ride there was an awkward silence, but when Harry pulled up out of the parking spot she started talking.
