“Thank you.” Shane said as her throat constricted and she felt at any moment the tears would begin to fall to no end from her dark colored eyes. Bette rubbed Shane’s back in a soft and slow circle pattern and smiled.

            “You’re very very welcome.” They walked inside and Bette showed Shane to her room. It was slightly bare and Bette just smiled.

            “This is your own personal space. Feel free to decorate it as you like. Make it your own work of art.” Bette said softly. Shane wrapped her arms around Bette once more.

            “Goodnight B.” Bette smiled and squeezed Shane tightly.

            “Remember you have school tomorrow. So when I call, you gotta get up.” Shane smiled against Bette’s shoulder.

            “I will.” Bette backed up a little still holding Shane’s upper arms.

            “Goodnight.” Shane gave Bette her knapsack who brought it down to the laundry room. Shane knew there were a few things in her bag that Bette was going to find and she was okay with that. She would rather Bette find it then have to tell her. Bette held the bag in her hand and placed it on the dryer and got the washer started. She pulled out a pair of pants out of the bag and checked the pockets for anything. She pulled out a package of papers. Zig Zag written on the packet. She looked at it with pursed eyebrows then she tossed it into the washer. She took out a shirt, which was rolled in a tight bunch which she undid to have two small packets fall at her feet she picked them up and noticed the green leafy substance inside them. She was surprise at the simple fact that there was dope in her hand. She knew that the following day she would have to talk to Shane about this because she really didn’t feel the need to wake her up right now. She put the rest of the clothes into the washer and knew they would have to go clothes shopping the following day which happened to be a Friday, her day off. She went up to her own room and went to get ready for bed. Her getting ready for bed routine was very simple. She opened her door, then closed it, walked over to her bed and lifted the corner of the covers that was on the left side of the bed and the side that was closest to the door and folded them over, then she took off her clothes and got dressed in her pj’s, then she went to her bed and crawled in. She had no idea why she slept on the left side of the bed only. She just didn’t feel the need to take up the whole bed. She fell asleep almost instantly and lay there with her new roommate a few feet down the hall who lay awake thinking about her future living in the home of Dr. B. Porter.
