Tina and Bette had been sitting in the floor, without saying a word, for the past 5 minutes.
Finally Bette decided to break the silence:

– So, Tina are you and Eric serious ?- She asked, immediately feeling like an idiot for asking such a question, afraid she migth have freaked Tina out, and shell stand up and leave.
But Tina, did none of this, she just smiled delicately, and hesitantely said:

– Jesus…I dont know, I think, I guess we are yes-

-Oh, it sounds so …- Said Bette frowning and shaking her left fist – Unquestionable…-

– I guess… we never meant to be serious, It just sort of, happened you know?. Like, I dont know, time has passed by and were still together. We kind of became serious I guess- Tina suddenly stopped, realizing she was, well, rambling a little…

– I see- Bette said ,looking nervously at her hands, as if she was searching for the rigth way to phrase her following question -Do you love him?- she finally asked, staring at Tinas brown eyes.

– Geez, you are really inquisitive Ms. Porter- Tina wasnt upset, she simply didnt know if she could answer, in an honest way, to that question.

– God, Im sorry Tina, I didnt mean , Im sorry, I dont want to make you uncomfortable.- Said Bette, a little mortified, the last thing she wanted to do was scare Tina away by becoming some sort of freaky-relationships-detective

-No, its okay Bette, really. Its just that I …dont know- confessed Tina tossing up a hand.

-You dont know if you love him?- Said Sherlock Holmes, uhm sorry, said Bette, who was feeling a little stupid for asking Tina all this questions, but for some reason, she needed to know if Tina loved Eric

– No, I do love him, but… am I in love with him?….I dont even know why am I telling you this,, Im sorry…- Tina, as confortable as she felt with bette, was starting to find the whole situation a little, you know, surreal. She was there, sitting in the bathroom floor, talking with a woman she barely knew (and was incredibly attracted to) about her most inner fears and doubts.
