It was true, they had charged Alice with the murder of Jenny. The police stating that it was a long going feud between the two over copy rights to treatments that they have written, Bette confirmed as she got off the phone to Tasha.

‘’they won’t let Tasha see her, apparently they’ve already carted her off to the slammer, awaiting to appear in court in the morning ’’ Bette said

She stood there for a few minutes and decided to head over to the house to see if her, Tina and Angie could finally go home. She goes out the back, but is met with a police officer at the gate. ‘’ I’m sorry ma’am, but this is still a crime scene and I can’t let anyone passed’’ the officer stated

‘’what are you talking about, you have charged my best friend with murder, surely you must have all the evidence that you need to do that don’t you’’ Bette stated rubbing her forehead

‘’I’m aware of that ma’am, but I still can’t let you through until all the evidence has been collected and tagged. You and your family just need to be patient and I’m sure it won’t be long before you can go home’’

‘’I don’t understand, I mean what evidence are you collecting. She drowned in the pool for fuck sake, are taking all the god damn pool water with you. You just better make sure that there is nothing out of place when I return’’

‘’This is a crock of shit’’ Bette muttered heading back toward Shanes

‘’What’s going on Bette’’ asked Tina when Bette returned

‘’They are still gathering evidence, apparently. It’s all just shit T. He said that we just need to be patient and it won’t be long before we can go home. I just can’t believe that all this happening, I mean I just can’t see Alice doing something this stupid, how did she do it?. We were there moving around the house’’

‘’I don’t know babe, it’s just all fucked up’’

They both heard Angelica stirring in Shanes room.

‘’I’ll go get her, you keep an eye on what’s happening’’ Tina said

It was a couple of hours later, before a police officer came over and confirmed that they could return home.

Bette and Tina gathered their stuff and arranged with Shane that they would meet up later with everyone at the planet.

They headed over to the house and both stood at the front door, looking at each other knowing that what was about to come would either make or possibly break their relationship. They had come so far together, they were closer now, stronger as a couple and with a new understanding in their relationship, that the revelations that had occurred tonight might just put them back to square one.

‘’Are you ready’’ Bette asked

With a deep sigh, Tina replied ‘’Yeah’’

They entered and went about straightening the house up , after the police had been snooping around. Trying to put off the conversation that was about to ensue.

After about an hour they were done and Tina had put Angie down for a nap. She returned to the kitchen and saw Bette standing there.

Tina stopped ‘’Babe you said that you wanted to tell me something’’

‘’Yeah I did, I think that after what I’ve heard tonight we need to get things out in the open, Lets go and sit in the living room’’ Bette motioned

They sat on the sofa and Bette, sitting on the edge.

‘’There’s something that I have to tell you, I should of told you when it happened but, I guess I thought that it wasn’t really important, well it wasn’t to me and you know you going through that shit at work and, and’’

‘’Bette, babe, please just tell me’’ Tina interrupted

‘’It’s about me and Kelly and when you were in New York’’ Bette whispered

Tina’s heart sank ‘’What about you and Kelly’’
