MK:  “Hey.”

Bette was really happy to see her.

Bette:  “Hi”

MK:  “How’ve you been?”

MK didn’t feel it necessary to bitch about or even bring up the fact that Bette hadn’t called or seen her in days.  She knew there was probably a good reason why.  Either her and Tina were patching up or falling apart.

Bette:  “Not to good.”

MK:  “Sorry to hear that”

Bette:   “What can you do?  I missed you though”

MK felt like she has been holding her breath the past week and she could exhale right as Bette said those words.  It took a great weight off her mind.  MK began to blush and even smiled a bit.

Bette:  I missed that too.

Referring to her smile.  MK’s head could have exploded Bette was making her feel so good.

MK:  “You know what to say to a girl, don’t ya?”

Bette:  “It’s a gift and a curse.”

They looked at each other.  The bar was filling up yet MK saw no one but Bette, and the loud back groud noise was quickly fading for Bette as well.  The ladies were still after MK, that was a life time struggle for MK though.

MK:  “DamnI gottayou want something?”

Bette:  “Yeah actually could you make me a drink using your ‘private stash’?”

MK:  “Coming right up.”

Bette wanted the strength of the drink but didn’t want the taste.  She took the drink and returned to the table so MK could work.  She didn’t say much, just listened to the conversation.  She stole glances at MK from time to time.  MK was being heavily flirted with.  Bette felt good to be wanted by someone in such high demand.

After a few hrs it was time for MKs break.  The replacement tender come on duty.  MK walked to the table.  She greeted all the girls.

Dana:  “Hey MK this “slippery when wet is good!”

MK:  “Thanks that’s an original Mekayla concoction.”

Dana:  “Me likey.”

Jenny:  “MK heres a seat”

She pulled a seat between Bette and Jenny.  MK and Bette made uncomfortable eye contact.  Bette didn’t like to be around her with Tina there.  Women were coming up left and right trying to ask MK to dance.  She turned them all down say she wanted to rest.  Shane and Carman, Carmen was on break as well, were over in the corner dancing and making out.  Dana was over by the kitchen where Lara was on duty.  MK leaned over to Bette.
