”Angelica?” Bette asked

”Everything’s ok…she didn’t notice anything…Monica told her that I left home early this morning ..” Tina winked at Bette.

”She’ll make you pay for everything when she’s older” Bette laughed as she tried to get up and Tina ran to her

”Where are you going?”

”Pee.” Bette smiled ”You have to do it or I’ll die Tina …”

”Oh ” Tina exclaimed ”ok…but come on I’ll help you …” Tina held out her hand to Bette who leaned on it moaning from the pain in her back, she had been with a high fever and in bed a lot for almost a whole day ”ok I’m here” Bette whispered, gripping the blonde’s hand better.

Tina carried her to the bathroom door and then gave Bette her privacy, in the meantime the nurses had brought Bwtte a breakfast and Tina asked Andrew to bring her a coffee and some yogurt for her too. When Bette came out of the bathroom she got to the table alone without help and Tina was very happy, they ate together, Bette ate less than Tina but she was happy that the fever seemed to have gone at least for now and it was important that Bette put something in her stomach.

”will you bring me Angie again?” Bette asked fearing the answer.

Tina bit her lip, she knew that Bette liked spending time with Angelica and vice versa, but she cared more about her health ”as soon as you recover…”

Bette tilted her head sighing ”is that what you tell the patients?”

”no Bette…if you want I promise, as soon as you get better you will see her, she will ask to come here too…but you are sickly and I am already here to bring you many germs”

”or to bring me happiness…” This statement took Tina by surprise but Shane burst into the room ”hey Bette, you look better huh?”

The spell between the two broke, Bette greeted her friend warmly and turned her attention away from the blonde who remained staring at her, the way Bette gestured, the light smile, the little rhinestones in her ears, Tina was taken.

”Oh by the way Tina I met Helena she told me to tell you she wants you in her office before shift…” Shane said
