"I missed you" She smiled widely and Tina thought she would melt.

"I missed you too but you shouldn’t be here . . someone might see you"

Bette shrugged, "It was worth the risk, I had to tell you something"

Tina’s eyebrows knitted together in confusion, "Tell me what?"

Bette smiled and spoke so low, so sensual, a shiver ran through Tina’s entire body.

"I love you"

Tina felt like she was flying, a smile was plastered on her face and for once the blonde didn’t care about how goofy it probably looked.

"I love you too . . I love you so much Bette"

Bette let out a sigh of relief, smiling wide as Tina stepped close to kiss her lover passionately. They broke away breathlessly as Tina slowly began to walk backward, grabbing onto Bette’s hand and gently giving it a tug. Bette smiled as she swung her other leg over the balcony and followed Tina though the thin curtains and into the bedroom.

*****

The echoing sounds of wet footsteps brought Bette from her memories. She kept her eyes closed but her ears open and listened as the footsteps grew louder. Someone was coming.

Bette wasn’t allowed any visitors and therefore hadn’t received any so she didn’t feel an urge to even move from her spot. It was probably the same annoying soldiers coming to taunt her with food they never allowed her to eat or maybe they would finally come to take her away to be executed.

"Bette? Bette wake up"

A soft familiar voice echoed softly in the damp dungeon and Bette’s eyes immediately opened. Her eyes quickly adjusted and she saw her best friend standing with a large cloak and hood, holding a torch.

"Shane?"

Shane smiled softly, "Hey"

Bette nearly jumped off the cot and ran over to her friend. In lots of ways she was disappointed that Tina wasn’t the one coming to see her but she was still glad to see a familiar face.

"What are you doing here?" Bette asked as she wrapped her arms around the cold, wet bars.
