“Oh yeah, Kit called. She needs you to come in tonight for the get together for Alice and Jordana.”

“Ok, I can do that.” She walked away and went to her room. Shane went into her room and leaned over Carmen. She kissed her softly on the cheek and nuzzled her neck.

“Wake up babe.” Carmen moaned and started to move around.

“I’m up.” Shane wrapped her arms around Carmen’s waist.

“Guess where I found Christina?”

“In her bedroom.” She said sarcastically.

“Don’t be a smart *****.” Carmen smiled to herself. “No, I found her in Mark’s bed.” Carmen turned herself around to face Shane.

“Someone hooking up in the house.” Shane smiled at her girlfriend and kissed her softly. She pulled her closely and held her tight.

“I want you to move in.”

“What?”

“I want you to move in the house. I want you closer to me.” Carmen smiled.

“Really, I don’t know.”

“Come on, just do me the honor to move in. Please, I’ll take care of you.” Carmen grabbed Shane’s face.

“Yes, I’ll move in.” Shane smiled and kissed Carmen. She started to kiss her all over her face.

“I*kiss*love*kiss*you*kiss.*” Carmen started to giggle with her girlfriend leaving her wet kisses.

“I love you.” Shane got up and pulled Carmen out of bed. She picked her up and wrapped her legs around her waist. “Oh my-Shane put me down!” Shane didn’t listen and twirled around the room. Carmen couldn’t believe that Shane picked her up as fast as she did. She laughed at her girlfriend’s excitement and wrapped her arms around Shane’s neck.

“You made me the happiest person in the world today.” Carmen gave Shane her big smile.

“I’m glad I did.” Shane kissed her again and held her.

            Tina was out in downtown LA, taking Destiny for a walk. She went into a clothing store and took a look around. She was looking at nice blouses for tonight’s get together at The Planet. She would look at them in the mirror. She turned and looked at her daughter.

“What do you think? Do you like this one on mommy?” Destiny smiled and slapped her hands together. “I’ll take that as a yes.” She walked over to the pants rack and looked for jeans. She was peering through the rack and grabbed a pair of jeans. She turned around and saw the last person she never wanted to see again.

“Hi Tina.”

“Hi Helena.” She started to walk over Tina and the baby.

“How are you?” Tina put on a smile.

“I’m fine, just shopping with my daughter.”

“That’s nice. Where’s Bette?”

“She’s at work, getting things set up for the show in a couple of days.” Helena nodded her head.

“Oh, I want you to meet someone.” Helena yelled for the young woman. She walked over to them, and Helena grabbed her hand. “Tina, this is my girlfriend Rose. Rose, this is Tina, Bette’s wife.” They both said hi. “She’s Rose Devine. She’ the new artist that’s been supported by Bette.”

“Oh ok, nice to meet you. Well I hate to cut this short ladies, but I got to get going.”

“Alright, Rose can you give us a second?” Rose nodded her head and walked away from the pair. Helena stepped closer to Tina. “It was really nice seeing again. You look really good.”

“Thank you Helena. It was seeing you too, but I have to go.” Tina tried to walk away with Destiny, but Helena stepped in front of the stroller. “Helena, please don’t start anything. I really don’t have anything else to say to you.”

“But I do. Why didn’t things work out between us? I really wanted to be with you Tina.” Tina rolled her eyes at the Brit. “What? You don’t believe me? After all I’ve done for you, you went back to Bette.”

“Helena, whatever happened between us will never happen again. Can you please move out of my way so I can leave?” Helena stepped out of the way and let Tina leave. Before she got up to the register, Helena grabbed her arm.

“I will be seeing you again.” Tina snatched her arm out of Helena’s grasp and paid for her things.
