Fred: “would you 2 pack it in…. bloody hell it’s like being back in uni”

Tina: “ not quiet, you two used to handle your drink better”

Fred gave a bleary eyed glare from under the covers…. Tina replied by sticking her tongue out.

Loo started to sit: “shit my head….. Ahhhhh god I feel like I’ve been steam rolled”

Tina smiled, Loo’s hair was a mess, piled high on her head, in a make shift bun, stray clumps fell at ominous angles, covering Loo’s eyes..

Fred mumbled: “ so I suppose it means we’re up now?”

Tina: “ yep, come on you didn’t come here to sleep on my sofa”

Loo: “no that’s right, we came here to get drunk and meet your Bette”

Fred sat up with the mention of Bette: “so have you spoken to her this morning?”

Tina: “ well, actually I did…. She has made plans for us to go out with her and her friends tonight. If you old farts are up to another night of drinking?”

Fred and Loo looked at each other and smiled: “you know us Tina, we’ll be up for anything” Fred answered with the devil in her eyes.

Tina grimaced: “now Fred please behave tonight….”

Fred; “me behave, don’t you think those words are better directed at Miss ‘I’m gonna make of myself’ Loo”

Loo:” hey!”

Tina: “both of you please. Bette is important to me, I want you to make a good first impression..”

Fred: “ and what’s better than her getting the first and truest impression of us…”

Loo:” yeah Tina..”

Tina: “ fine, but no fucking her friends”

Loo blanched at the use of language from Tina’s lips: “Jesus this Bette really has loosened you up ain’t she?”

Fred; “ ok, ok… no fucking her friends, we’re not that crude”

Tina laughed: “yeah you are, just give it a few hours after meeting them before you go making fools of yourselves ok?”

Fred: “sure Tina…. So what are we wearing?”

They spent the rest of the day, lazing, eating and chatting…

By 6 they were starting to get their arses in gear….

Tina fought Loo for the shower and the hot water.

They borrowed each others make up and perfume, like they always had in uni..
