They answered with grunts and moans. Kit couldn’t tell what they were saying because their mouths were full. But the looks on their faces told her everything she needed to know.

“Thanks, you guys!”

More moans and head nods. 

“Well, this is a sight,” Bette smiled at the table. Her chosen family. 

“There’s my Baby Sis.”

“Hey Kit.”

Bette hugged her sister. 

Tina looked up as she was licking her fingers. Bette licked her lips. They both smiled. 

“Bette!” Alice, Shane and Dana yelled.

Bette giggled and looked back at Tina.

“Hi,” Tina finally said.

“Hi,” Bette responded.

The energy shifted. Everyone felt it. 

“They’re trying out my new cinnamon bun.”

“From the looks of it, I think they like it.”

Bette smiled. Tina loved that smile. 

“It’s so fucking delicious,” Alice said. 

Kit smiled again. Without hesitation, Tina put a piece on her fork. She would’ve used her fingers in the past but she wasn’t sure that was such a good idea…in front of everyone. 

“You have to try it,” Tina said as she stood up.

The group watched their exchange.

She brought the fork to Bette’s mouth. Bette locked eyes with Tina. She slowly wrapped her lips around the fork and pulled the cinnamon bun into her mouth. Tina gulped. The flavors exploded in Bette’s mouth which broke her trance into the depths of Tina’s sunflower eyes.

“Oh my God. That is fucking delicous.”

“Thanks, Baby Girl.”

“It’s a nice surprise seeing you here. I thought you were swamped with meetings,” Tina said sweetly.

“I am. But thankfully one got bumped to Friday. So, I had time to get my mid morning caffeine fix.”

“You didn’t drink the coffee I made this morning?”

“Oh, I did. And it was so good. Thank you. But I think it has worn off already.”

Tina looked into Bette’s eyes and simply nodded.

Bette did not tell Tina that she had checked her location and wanted to see her this morning so she told James to place an order and when he said he would pick it up, she insisted she go.

“James, should’ve called in my order,” Bette looked at Kit.

“I’ll go grab it.”

“Thanks, Kit.”

“Anything for you, Baby Girl.”

Bette and Tina locked eyes again.
