Tina relented and took the cellphone Bette was offering to her. "Hi, Alice. It’s Tina." Tina waited for scream that never came. "Hello Alice? Are you there?" Tina looked up at Bette. "She not answering." Tina focused when she heard Dana’s voice. "Hello Dana?"

Oh, my god Tina. Is this really you?"

"Yeah, it’s really me. What happened to Alice?"

"Well, you’re not going to believe this, but she fainted." 

Chapter 20

"What?! Alice fainted? Oh, my god Dana is she okay?" Tina asked as she clutched the phone to her ear.

Bette bolted upright in bed. The thought of Alice passing out caused the brunette to laugh. She tried to stifle the laugh after Tina widened her eyes at her. "Ask Dana if someone caught that on video," Bette told the blonde before breaking out in a fit of giggles.

"It’s not funny, Bette. Alice could be hurt." She chastised the brunette sitting next to her. She turned her attention back to the phone as she listened to the conversation taking place on the other end.

"Alice, sweetie. Wake up."

 Alice roused, shaking her head. "Oh, my god, Dana. What happened?"

"You fainted Al."

 "I fainted? I never faint."

 "Yeah, Al. You did. Come on, sit up."

 "Dane, you’re not going to believe this, but I thought I heard whoever Bette’s with say that she’s Tina."

 "You did, Al. Bette’s with Tina as in Tina Kennard."

 "No, fucking way. Dane."

"Yes, way." Dana handed the cellphone to Alice. "Here, talk to her."

"Alice? Hello? Hello? Al, are you there?" Tina spoke into the phone. She turned to Bette, who was still trying to stifle her laughter. "Here, you talk to her." Tina handed the phone to Bette.

"Hello, Alice? It’s Bette. Can you hear me?"

"Oh, my god, Bette. Who the hell is with you, who Bette, who?" 

"Al, first are you okay? I heard you fainted. You didn’t bump your head did you?"

"Listen Porter, don’t try to change the subject. I’m fine. Who’s in bed with you?"
