Ava took a step back toward the door, glaring at everyone slowly before looking back at Kit.

"I’d make sure that company of yours is concrete. Never know what might happen"

With that, the turned on her heel and stormed out of the cafe. It stood relatively quiet for a few moments and then Marina took it upon herself to get rid of the awkwardness.

"Alright everyone, there’s nothing left to see. Please enjoy your coffee"

"Jesus Christ, can you believe her?!" Alice jerked a thumb in the direction Ava left before sitting down. Shane helped Carmen sit down, grasping her lover’s chin and tilting her head up to kiss her.

"I’m sorry for stopping you babe. I just didn’t want things to get out of hand. I know you would have killed her"

"I really would have" Carmen pursed her lips, a small hint of a smile showing through from the kiss Shane had just given her. She was always able to make Carmen feel better so easily, "God, what a bitch. How did Bette even stand her for so long?

Shane shook her head and sat down as she breathed heavily through her nose, "Your guess is as good as mine"

There was a few more moments of silence before Dana’s curiosity got the better of her, she had missed out on half the action after all.

"So . . What was that all about?" She asked innocently as she sipped her coolata from a bright pink straw.

"Ava is a fucking psycho that’s what. I wonder how the hell did she find out about Bette and Tina. We barely found about it ourselves" Kit pinched the bridge of her nose and shook her head.

"Yeah, its crazy" Dana shook her head and sat down beside Alice whom quickly turned her body to face her girlfriend.

"Wait a second . . You knew?!"

Dana gave her girlfriend an innocent shrug and blushed slightly, "I was supposed to help Bette with some cables last week and I sort of . . walked in on them"

"Jesus Christ! Was I seriously the last to know?!"

"You mean, you didn’t know?" Dana asked with surprise, "Wow that’s . . actually pretty cool. I’m always the last one to know everything"

"Yeah well" Alice said as she threw a frustrated hand up in the air, "Next thing you’re gonna tell me is that Marina knew too"

Marina awkwardly avoided Alice’s gaze and her eyes widened in response, "Oh come on, really?! Man, that’s so fucked up!"

Ignoring Alice’s rant, Shane leaned forward on the table, "What do you think she wanted with Bette?"

"I don’t know but whatever it is, it can’t be good. I don’t like the fact that she threatened Planet Records either" Kit sighed deeply.

"Thank God we didn’t tell Ava where she went" Carmen agreed.

"Either way, I have to give Bette a heads up. I’ll be right back"

With another sigh, Kit got up from her seat and headed for her office. She sat at her desk and dialed Bette’s number, the slow ringing making her impatient.

"Come on, Bette. Pick up the phone"

On the other side of town, Bette was excitedly packing for her trip to New York to surprise Tina. Her phone was on vibrate, buzzing away on the bed without anyone to answer it.

"Hi, you’ve reached Bette Porter. I’m not able to answer the phone right now but leave your na-"

Kit ended the call by slamming her phone down in frustration. Taking deep breath after deep breath before running her hand through her hair.

"Fuck! Fuck!"
