They ended the conversation with decisions of meeting up in the city
centre before joining the queue for the gig so they could wait
together. Tina also had the uncomfortable situation of having to ask if
she could still stay with Bette as planned, because she didn’t want any
expectations, or even hopes, from either of them, it was simply because
of Ali having work the next morning and needing peace to sleep, she
hated when Tina stumbled in drunk waking her up in the middle of the
night when she had work the next day and Ali’s parents didn’t like the
idea of Tina going out drinking without Ali being there to ‘look after
her’ so she would simply tell them a few of their friends were staying
over at Bette’s to watch movies all night.

After hanging up both of them went to have a nap, it was going to be another long night of drinking and dancing.

Soon they were both ready and out the door, finding themselves waiting
on the bus, Bette’s house was slightly further away from the city
centre, so she had to get an earlier bus, amazingly as Bette’s bus went
passed where Tina would be getting on her bus from, it stopped, and
there she was, Tina was getting on Bette’s bus, usually Tina wound up
in town before Bette, more buses passed this street than Bette’s
neighbour hood. Bette thought how American Tina still seemed, even
after a year of being in Scotland, she still had to ask the driver to
repeat himself 3 times with how much the fare was. She still seemed
like she’d only just stepped off of the plane.

As Tina cutely and confusedly got herself further onto the bus and
tried to find a seat Bette thought it hilarious that in her
flusteredness Tina had managed to not realise she had gotten on to
Bette’s bus number, and that Bette was there! Bette felt mischievous at
this and let Tina find herself a seat and settle down, getting
engrossed in the music beating out awfully loudly from her headphones.
Once she was sure Tina wouldnt see her move to the seat behind her,
Bette went for it, she slipped to the seat and did something that she
knew would scare the ***** outta Tina, she put her mouth really near her
ear and pushed on Tina’s shoulders saying BOO! just between songs of
Tina’s music.
Tina jumped up with a scream, scaring the other passengers, turning
around realising it was Bette she exclaimed “Jesus H. Tap-dancing
Christ Bette, I nearly had a frikin heart attack! Don’t do that”
slapping Bette’s arm playfully. Bette couldn’t help but giggle like a
little child, Tina’s reaction was just sooo funny. Once Tina had
recovered from her shock they spent the rest of the 10 minute journey
making small talk about the gig and what the band would be like, they
hadn’t met Katie, Amy, Rebecca and Kirsty yet.
