Bette walked through the doors to the gallery with a new spring in her step.
After her phone-call with Tina last night, she had woken up this morning feeling a strange sense of anxiety, but definite excitement at the prospect of seeing her girlfriend tonight.
She managed to ignore her throbbing headache as she showered and dressed for work, chuckling to herself as she made her way into the front room to find her two friends curled up on the sofa.
Bette grabbed her briefcase off the table and snatched an apple out of the fruit bowl; she didn’t have time for a proper breakfast this morning. She scribbled down a note for her friends and left it on the table, briskly making her way out the door and off to the gallery.
Bette was greeted by James at the front desk as she arrived.
"Good Morning Boss." He smiled, sensing the brunette’s good mood.
"Good morning James, I know I’m late…just give me the lowdown so I can actually get some work done today." She smiled, placing her briefcase on the floor and leaning her elbow on the desk.
"Ermmm okay." James scanned through the pile of papers in front of him. "Your ten o’clock cancelled which gives you around an hour to spare before the budget meeting, and…Joshua needs to speak with you about the upcoming show, something about the gallery layout I think."
Bette rubbed her forehead as she processed this information.
"Oh, and I moved your nine o’clock to twelve, seeing as you weren’t here by eight-thirty." He grinned, piling the papers up neatly on the desk. "Busy night last night boss?"
Bette tilted her head and squinted at the young man.
"You could say that." She smiled slightly, leaning down to pick up her briefcase.
"Well, I have some aspirin over here if you need it." James chuckled, reaching into his desk drawer. "Or I hear a nice greasy breakfast cures a hangover."
Bette shook her head and grinned at her assistant. "I don’t get hangovers James."
The brunette gave the young man a wink and turned to make her way into her office.
James followed Bette’s path with his eyes, chuckling to himself as the door to her office closed shut. Sometimes he truly believed that Bette Porter was superwoman.
