“Sensitive,” Dana quipped. “And so practical, too.”
Shane laughed and took another swig of beer.
Dana was asking Tina about her work but before she could answer Alice flopped down at the table.
“I hate this place,” she said emphatically.
“What’s wrong now?” Dana asked.
“Nothing, except that I can’t turn around without seeing another ex. Gabby and Paula are over there chatting it up and practically making out just to spite me. Like I care.”
“You obviously do,” Shane drawled. “This is why I don’t get attached.”
“Unlike you, Shane, I want to get attached. I just can’t find the right person.”
Shane shrugged. “It’s your own problem, Al. There are women everywhere. If you were like me, keeping it simple, you wouldn’t get caught up in any drama.”
“Alice,” Bette said, interrupting Shane’s philosophising, “this is Tina.”
“Hey,” Alice said listelessly. She studied Tina briefly as she helped herself to Shane’s beer, but not before wiping the bottle with the back of her hand. Shane jerked the bottle back but Alice didn’t seem to notice. “I like your earrings.”
“My…? Oh,” Tina said, reaching up and touching one with her hand. “Thank you. I got them over at this country and western themed store over on –”
“I just can’t believe Paula is being such a bitch,” Alice groaned dramatically. “What did I ever do to deserve such treatment?”
Bette caught Tina’s eye and raised a mocking eyebrow. The rest of the table went silent and everyone looked everywhere but at Alice. Dana released a muffled giggle.
The pointed silence was not lost on Alice. “Oh, screw you guys,” she muttered. She snapped for a passing waitress who moved quickly away from their table. “Hey!” Alice called after her. “You! Waitress! Come here!” She had half-risen from her seat and was gesticulating wildly in the direction of the waitress, who glanced at Alice casually and continued ignoring her. Shane pulled Alice back down into her chair.
“Relax, Al. You don’t want Bette’s new friend getting the wrong impression of us,” Shane said.
“What friend?” Alice said, glaring daggers at the waitress’ back. She switched topics without acknowledging what Shane had said. “Shane, run over to the bar and get me another drink, please? I’m not going over there. Sharon is standing right there and I’m just not in the mood to deal with facing her, too.”
