“I don’t think it’s any of your business. I haven’t asked you have you fucked your man friend yet.” Tina looked at Bette.

“Watch your mouth around her,” Tina went through her closet. “I’m staying at Alice and Jordana’s until I can get on my feet. I’m taking Destiny for the weekend.”

“Fine by me, but I’m going to call you so I can talk to her. Can you do that for me?”

“Yes, she is your child. She needs to know her mothers.” Tina stuffed her things in her duffel bag and zipped it up. She grabbed the baby bag and picked up Destiny. “When was the last time you fed her?”

“Ten minutes ago.” Bette walked up to Destiny and gave a kiss. “Mommy loves you, be good.” Destiny laid her head on Tina’s shoulder and waved at Bette. “I’ll see you later.” Tina grabbed her duffel bag and baby bag. She walked out of the room and down the hall. Helena was sitting on the couch and watched Tina leave. Helena sighed and laid her head on the back of the couch as Tina left. Bette walked into the living room and sat on the couch.

“How did everything go in there?”

“Tina asked me a bunch of questions, but I told her it’s none of her business. She threw a fit because you were holding my child.”

“I feel like this is my fault because of all of this.”

Bette grabbed a hold of Helena’s hand. “This is never your fault; this was our choice to be together. We’re happy with each other. If they don’t like it, fuck ‘em.”

Helena looked at Bette. “You’ve changed,” Bette looked at her. “I’m starting to like this change.”  She leaned forward and gave Bette a simple kiss. “But I think it’s time for me to go. I’ll see you tomorrow night.”

“Of course,” Helena got off the couch and so did Bette. Helena grabbed her bag and keys. They walked over to the door and stood. Bette wrapped her arms around Helena’s waist.

“I don’t want you to leave.” She laid her head against Helena’s.
