“Carmen! It’s so nice to see you! Come here!” She embraced Carmen as if they were old friends.
Of course, they had never really gotten along that well. Simon’s wife thought that Mercedes was a bad influence on her son and had treated her poorly since the beginning.
“Sarah, hey!”
“Come, come inside, dinner’s all ready!” She waved everybody inside, Simon and Hector rushing in right behind her, leaving Carmen and Mercedes to share a quick this-is-going-to-suck look before following.
The night had gone well so far, the topic of Carmen and Shane had been successfully avoided for the majority of the evening, and Tina’s cooking was delicious as always.
“You guys!” Shane stated loudly, standing up, and getting almost immediate attention from her friends. “Hey. I, uh… I wanted to make a toast. I’m…” She sighed, “I’m not very good with words. You guys know that. I just… I just wanted to say ‘thank you’ to all of you. This time without Carmen, after the whole wedding that wasn’t thing…” She shook her head sadly before looking up and quickly looking each and every one of her friends in the eye. “Thank you for understanding and sticking with me and doing your best not to badger me about it, even though I deserve it. Um… I hope… No, I pray that Carmen and I can work this thing out. I still love her, but… that’s not the point. The point is that if it weren’t for you… I don’t think I’d have made it this far, I’d probably be off in a gutter somewhere high on five different drugs or something… But you guys were there for me, you supported me, and now I’m here. And I feel very lucky. Thank you. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me. It means more than you know. And that’s all the ego stroking I’m gonna do today. To you guys!”
“To us!” They all responded, clinking glasses and downing whatever drink was in their hands.
Shane took her seat next to Bette, receiving a supportive smile, and a comforting hand on her back.
“That was beautiful, Shane.” Bette said quietly, ignoring the conversation that had started back up with everyone else.
