“Bette there are no coincidences, there are no accidents. This world we move in has a purpose and whether or not you believe it this was all meant to happen. Tina was brought into your life to serve as a catalyst for something.” Alice said trying to drive into Bette the fact everything in her life was already set in motion from conception.

“Bullshit. If I lived my life knowing I had no choice , then what’s the point of living. I make the decisions that affect me. Whether you want to believe it or not Alice we are responsible for ourselves and no one else!”

“You don’t believe that. I know you don’t.” Alice couldn’t take her eyes away from Bette as she spat out what could only be fear forming itself into doubt. Bette looked away from Alice’s hurt look and had to place her eyes somewhere else. “Bette just because you’re not physically comfortable with her doesn’t mean that mentally you’re not. Your mind wants her, because of some union that was formed during those dream casts. If you can hold back you’re desires long enough to try and get to know her again.”

“How the fuck am I supposed to do that Al?”

“Keep it in your pants long enough to try and get to the dream casts you guys had. They’re still there you just can’t get past the sex to see them.”

Bette sighed maybe Alice was right. These dreams had to come from somewhere if Tina wasn’t doing it. The real question here was, how was she going to satisfy her mind’s desires long enough to stay asleep and get to know Tina better.

“I know. I can’t believe it either. It’s happening. Everything’s falling into place. I found her, well she found me.”

“I didn’t know it was going to be Jesenia?”

“Me neither, but here she is…” Phaedra said looking back at Jesenia who was crouched by the water letting it run past her hands. “Still standing.”

“I guess she’s going to be with Bette and Tina?”

“Forever.” Phaedra nodded her head with her eyes now lost on the flowing river.
