Alice said,

“Of course I’ll be there for her; I know how she’s feels.”

With that Alice and Shane went into the hospital and found Bette sobbing and with her face in her hands.  Shane sat down next to her and put her arms around Bette. Shane said,

“Hey, what’s going on?”

Bette removed her hands from her face and stared at her friends, then sobbed,

“I still haven’t heard a fucking thing and I was told that I create any more scenes then I would be banned from the hospital for a week!”

Alice shook her head and mumbled,

“Assholes!”

Bette sniffed,

“I know! All I want is to know about my baby that’s all, is that so much to fucking ask!!”

Shane said,

“Shhhhh, everything will be ok and Tina will come out of it fine.”

Bette got up and started to pace the waiting room and Alice and Shane watched her, their concern for their friend growing rapidly.

Bette cried,

“Oh god, I fucking love her so much and I need her with me! I can’t handle this!”

Shane said to Alice,

“I think we need to get her outside to get some fresh air and so she doesn’t get banned from the hospital.”

Alice agreed,

“She’s in worse shape that I am!”

Shane gently grabbed Bette by the arm and said,

“We are going to hang outside until someone comes out and finds us.”

Bette sobbed,

“I don’t want to go outside; I want to be with T!”

Alice replied,

“Come on, she’ll live, believe me!”  Both Shane and Alice pushed Bette outside.

          Bette continued to pace and Shane said,

“C’mon Bette, just sit and calm down.  The pacing won’t help any.”

Bette snapped,

“Neither will sitting!”

Alice said,
“Look Porter, I know what you are going through, I mean it has only been a few days since Dana died and it’s still driving me crazy. But I realize that I can’t go psycho shit or I will end up being in a hospital, in a loony bin that is!”

Bette pulled out her hair and screamed,

“MAYBE THAT IS WHERE I BELONG, A FUCKING LOONIE BIN, HUH?”

Shane rolled her eyes and mumbled,

“Jesus! We need to get her out of here for right now!”
