Alice took a swig of her beer to calm her nerves before saying, “It’s Alice, Pieszecki. I’m not cool enough to say my name in a bond-like fashion.” Alice said pretending to look sad at her uncoolness.

Dana once again chuckled at how cute Alice was and put her hand on Alice’s leg lightly. “I think you’re cooler than James Bond” Although it made Alice laugh, Dana was the one to feel embarrassed at her comment this time.

“Maybe we need to stop talking about James Bond. Nothing good ever comes of it” Alice said smiling at the red tint that appeared on Dana’s face who simply nodded looking down cursing herself at her stupidity.

“Hey now, let’s not be so hard on ourselves alright?” Alice said, putting her finger under Dana’s chin forcing their eyes to lock in a soft embrace. They noticed that neither had spoken in a while but they didn’t care. They were simply enjoying looking at each other as the moonlight reflected off the water in the pool, bathing them in soft light.

Alice was smiling lightly at the memory of that night before her thoughts were interrupted by Tina knocking on her window. She hadn’t realized that she pulled up to Bette’s house and even turned off the car’s engine. She opened the door and was pulled into a bear hug by Tina. “Alice! I’m so happy to see you!”

“Me too, Tina. It’s been a while I’ve really missed this place and my friends, you especially.” Alice smiled happily pulling back from Tina. She looked down and saw a small girl cowering behind her blonde friend and realized who it was. “Oh my god, Angelica! She’s gotten so big!”

Tina nodded, “Yup the last time you saw her she was in diapers. Tell Alice how old you are now sweetie” Tina picked the small child up and Angelica held out her hand, holding up her 5 fingers. “5, thats right”

“Wow, I can’t believe it. It’s been 5 years.” Alice said giving a look to Tina that conveyed all the anxiousness but excitement she was feeling. She then looked to Angelica who seemed more comfortable and was reaching for Alice. Alice held out her arms and picked up Angelica looking at her earth daughter before asking, “Do you remember me Angelica? I’m your Auntie Alice”
