Chapter Twenty-Two

“I really don’t see why we were dragged out of the house. I wanted to stay home tonight T.” Bette stopped before they approached the door to the Planet. Tina grabbed Bette’s hand.

“Babe—our friends decided to throw us a bachelorette party. We’re getting married in four days, and we should have fun.”

“I thought a nice, quiet dinner would have done it.” Tina sighed and wrapped her arms around Bette’s waist.

“C’mon babe—we have the rest of our lives together, but we’re not going to be young forever. So let’s have fun while we still can.” Tina pouted, and Bette smiled.

“Okay—lets go in there and have some fun.” She leaned forward and kissed Tina. They walked towards the front door and walked in. Everyone turned around and clapped and cheered as the ladies walked into the club. They smiled and waved as women came up to them to congratulate them on the engagement.

“Didn’t think you guys were going to make it to your own bachelorette party.” Alice smiled and gave Bette and Tina a hug and kiss on the cheek.

“Hey—,” Shane came over and gave them hugs. “Hope you ladies don’t mind that Carmen’s here.”

“Oh no,” Bette shook her head. “She’s welcomed here Shane—you know that.” Helena walked over to the ladies and smiled.

“Welcome to your bachelorette party!” She wrapped her arms around the both of them. “Hope you ladies enjoy your night. We have a few lady dancers here for some fun. So you ladies enjoy yourselves.” She smiled and took a drink of her beer.

“Hey ladies—,” Kit came from behind and wrapped her arms around their waists. “I’m so happy for ya’ll, finally getting married once again. I can’t wait for this day to come.” She pulled them close and gave them a hug. “Take a seat, and I’ll bring the drinks to you.”

“I’ll have a white Russian.” Tina nodded.

“I’ll have a Cosmopolitan.” Kit smiled and walked towards the bar. Bette looked around and saw the dancers up on the tables. She smiled faintly, and Tina grabbed her hand.

“C’mon on babe—let’s have fun.”  Tina dragged Bette over to the table with the dancers. They took a seat, and Tina took off her jacket. Bette raked her fingers through her hair and relaxed in her seat. Kit walked over to the table and placed the drinks down.
