Dana: what are you trying to prove Al?

Alice: that your not ready for the life. I mean who do you think your fooling

(Alice closes the lid on the trash…She washes and rinses her hands…She dries them…)

Dana: test me

(Alice peaks around the corner…She steps into the livingroom…)

Alice: your joking right?

Dana: no I’m serious this time

(Alice steps closer to Dana…She gets closer and closer and closer…Their noses touch…Dana leans in and so does Alice…)

Dana: Al kiss me…

Meanwhile at Bette’s house…

(Bette finishes getting dressed and heads over to Tina’s immeditaley…She arrives with the roses in her hands…She approaches the door and rings the doorbell…The door opens on the second ring…)

Tina: welcome

(Tina steps closer to her lover planting a wet one on the brunette’s pink lips…Bette smiles)

Tina: come on…come in

(Bette enters the living room giving Tina the flowers…She blushes once she received them slowly cracking a smile fitting her perfect mouth…She looks Bette up and down and then she does the same to herself…)

Tina: I over dressed

Bette: no you didn’t. You look great

Tina: thanks you look good yourself

Bette: thanks. Well hurry and put those in water and then we can get going

Tina: I’ll be a minute

(Tina heads to the kitchen refilling the vase with fresh water and carefully placing the roses inside…She grabs her purse and says…)

Tina: I’m ready

Bette: let’s go

(Both women exit the house…)

Sebastians…

(Bette and Tina make their way to their seat…They are given menu’s and time to order)

Bette: I am really happy that you’ll be joining me in Boston Tina

Tina: me too. I am exited to take a trip for a change. I’ve been pretty busy

Bette: well have you thought of any places that you would like to go?

Tina: no not yet. But I wouldn’t mind attending a few art galleries

Bette: me either. I still can’t believe your coming. We are going to have a blast

Tina: I sure hope we do all that we can in 48 hours

Bette: well if we don’t we always have the weekend

Tina: true. So when are we leaving?

Bette: we’ll leave Wednesday morning and arrive sometime that afternoon. We’ll have about 3 hours until the dinner party. So until then we can relax and have some fun

(Tina smiles…)

Tina: I can’t wait

(The waiter arrives and takes their orders…He reappears with their drinks…)

Bette: let’s make a toast

Tina: oh how about to Boston

(Bette nods her head…)

Bette: ok to Boston

Tina: to Boston

(The two tap their glasses together…The sip their drinks slowly placing them back on the table…)

Tina: I’m happy to be here Bette. The past few weeks have been the best that I’ve ever encountered before. Your so sweet and very charming. It feels as though I’ve known you forever. I like how you make me feel safe with you and not having doubts. I know that you’ll take care of me and I’m happy that we met and know we’re together. I feel secure Bette and I never want you to ever think about hurting me ever

Bette: I won’t I swear. Your what I want Tina and have been waiting for. And if I am ever given the pleasure to be your wife I would love the obligation. I know that it will take time and eventually time will tell a tale for us both. But until we come to that side of the bridge where it would be time to cross it I want you to know that I’ll be here waiting for you as long as it takes. I’ve never been married before and most definitely getting to know you and grow with you is something that I would love to do. I hope that we make it. I know that we’ll make it. We both have a few flaws that we need to get through but there is nothing that I can’t overcome and I’m sure that you feel the same in the wake of what you and Eric went through. Your a fighter and I like that. I love you Tina Kennard

Tina: I love you more Bette Porter

(The two kiss…They both hold each other’s hands looking into one another’s eyes never blinking capsuring ever moment that passed by as though it were the last…)

TBC…
