Comfort Enough
“Are you anxious? You sound anxious. What are you so anxious about?” Alice asked, her voice tinny on the other end of the cell phone.
“Maybe because I’m trying to drive while drinking hot coffee and talking to you,” Bette said, frowning as she navigated her way through traffic.
“I don’t really think you need any more coffee,” Alice retorted.
“I’ll keep that in mind. Now, was there a particular reason you called, or is this all about my caffeine intake?”
“I’ve got to have a reason to call one of my dearest friends?” Alice asked innocently.
“No. But I’m sure you have one.”
“I’m just checking on you. You and the missus have been MIA for a couple of weeks and I wanted to be sure everything’s okay.”
“Everything is fine. We have a lot of catching up to do, that’s all,” Bette said. “I’m actually on my way to pick her up for a doctor’s appointment.”
“So you really think you’re ready to do this baby thing, huh?” Alice teased.
“What do you mean?” Bette asked defensively.
“Easy, Mother Goose. I’m only yanking your chain a little,” Alice backpedaled.
“Don’t you think I’m ready for this?”
“Bette. Yes. Of course you’re ready. God. You guys are going to be great parents.”
“I know that last time I wasn’t”
“Hey. Last time is ancient history, right? That’s behind you now. Things are different.”
“Okay. I guess I’m edgier than I thought. I’m pulling into the parking lot, so I’ve got to go. We should all do dinner. You guys could come over to the house. You and Shane and Dana. Just like old times.”
“Don’t forget about Tonya,” Alice muttered.
“She’s still around?”
“Oh yeah. She’s around.”
“But aren’t you”
“Go get your wife. We’ll talk later,” Alice interrupted.
“Al. Really. I’m sorry, okay? Do you forgive me?”
“Forget about it. And consider switching to decaf.”
Bette was on her way to the front door of the Headquarters for Social Justice when Tina came out to greet her.
“Hey,” Tina said, walking into Bette’s waiting embrace. “You’re right on time.”

That was perfect. Bette has some catching up to do in more ways than one.
The banter between Alice and Bette was superb. It just seemed so….’them’.
Gotta love Dr. Wilson’s ability to just be there, no judgements, no comments. She’s a rock, for sure.
Keep it coming. I love that Bette is a little more passive yet protective. Sweet.
I love when I see that you’ve posted something. However, there always so short and sweet. Maybe we can get a 3pg Chappie soon?
