Liz?

Silence.

Liz??

Silence.

LIZ!!!

Liz came tearing through the house and managed to come to a screeching halt in front of Bette who was looking down at her with her hands on her hips. Liz was confused as to why she seemed to be in trouble, AGAIN, so she smiled up at her mommy with big eyes and a wide grin. Bette didnt buy any of it.

Liz have you seen my cell phone?

No mommy

Lizlying isnt good. If youre playing with it thats one thing but I need to find it right now

Mommy I dont know where it is

Bette looked at her and sighed. She had looked all over the damn place for it and since she couldnt find it she had assumed that Liz had gotten her paws on it again and was just playing dumb. Bette drummed her fingers on her hips impatiently and looked down at Liz. As sweet as Liz could be, sometimes she could be quite a mischievous rascal also, and right now Bette didnt have time for that. She was just about to rip into Liz about taking things and hiding them when Tina came walking out of the bedroom holding Bettes cell phone.

Here babethis was ringing in your jacket pocket

Oh

She took the phone from Tina and looked down at Liz with a sheepish smile. Liz seemed to give her a smirk in return to which Bette responded by simply raising an eyebrow. Bette had a very important call to make to Peggy Peabody and since Peggy was in Europe at the moment Bette had to make sure she caught her at the right time. Bette went into the backyard to make her call while Tina just shook her head and laughed. She walked over to Liz and put an arm around her shoulder.

You hungry baby?

Yes mommy

Tina took Liz into the kitchen and cooked a box of mac and cheese for the two of them and within minutes they were sitting down enjoying a nice bowl of the cheesy concoction and laughing about what shapes they could make with their macaroni. They were laughing their heads off when Bette came back into the house obviously frustrated.
