Shane smiled and tossed a small rolled up piece of napkin at her friend, I prefer my freedom thanks.

Its okay Shane, we all know you live by the code, Tina chuckled as well.

What code? Marissa asked.

What did Lacey call it again the four Fs, finds em, feels em, ***** em, forgets em, Alice tossed the napkin back at Shane.

Turning towards Marissa Shane explained, I just dont do relationships.

That girl was quiet the poet, Tina laughed remember the crazy stalker Shane had picked up.

So how long have you all been friends, Marissa asked feeling slightly left out of the close nit group.

Tina smiled taking pity on the new girl, Well Alice and I have known each other for, what seven years?

Yeah, thats when you went to that party B Alice trailed off, unwilling to mention Bettes name in front of Tina.

Its okay, Tina smile faltered. You can say her name. My ex wife Bette always threw these giant art parties, we met at one.

Noticing the dramatic shift in mood, Shane jumped in, And I met Al about four years ago.

Alice groaned and ducked her head down slightly while Tina burst out laughing. Shane caste a discreet smile thankful Tina had managed to laugh. Marissa just nodded slightly out of place.

I almost forgot about that, Tina managed between laughs.

Marissa looked at the group completely confused, What happened?

Alice apparently had been trying to meet me for sometime, Shane began.

Okay so I had a slight crush on you, in all fairness it was before I met you, Alice grumbled.

Well anyway, one day she comes up to me and invites me to this party. I figured she wanted to *****, which was cool with me, she was quiet the hottie, Shane playfully leered at Alice.

Tina cut in, Bette and I were throwing this party, so Alice is rambling on and on about how she got Shane to go on a date with her.

I was not that excited, Alice glared.

Sure you werent, Tina laughed. So Shane shows up halfway through the party and by this point Alice had thought Shane had stood her up. So she proceeded to drain most of the bar.
