"Or swaying to sexy tunes with your baby," Tina added, as she lightly grasped Bette’s chin, smiling as she pulled Bette closer for a longer kiss.

Helena laughed lightly.  "Oh, Bette and Tina! There is no sexier couple over here, even today…"

She waited a beat for a response, but didn’t get one.

"Hello… Hello?"

"Oh, sorry, Helena," Tina finally responded, a little breathless. She’d drawn her head back from the kiss she’d started, but Bette continued to lay soft kisses on her neck.

She whispered, "You were going to ask her about Marissa, baby."

"Don’t start something you don’t intend to finish," Bette whispered back, giving Tina one last kiss on the base of the blonde’s neck, ending it with a smirk.

"Helena, before you go… by the way, thanks for the head’s up about Peggy… I was just about to say," Bette said, in between sips of her tea, "was Marissa Wheeler still in your school when you were?"

"Yeah, I think so," Helena answered, a little uncertainly.  "All I remember about her is she was a total nerd, and kept to herself most of the time.  But really smart."

"Why do you ask?"

"Tina and I are going to talk to her at some point later this evening, and we really don’t know much about her."

"That’s interesting," Helena said. "Sorry, that’s all I can remember from the past." She continued, "I don’t really recall much about her from our days in boarding school."

"That’s ok, Helena," Tina said as she sipped on her tea also, "It’s not a big deal…"

Helena cut in, remembering something all of a sudden, "Oh… By  the way: there was a huge spread about her about six months ago in French Vogue.  I almost forgot about that."

"Yeah?," Bette and Tina said simultaneously. Bette walked quickly to her desk and tapped on her computer. She typed out a few key words in the search bar, and soon found her way to the cover of magazine edition Helena was talking about. She pressed a few keys to have it displayed on the big HD screen hanging in one wall of her office that she normally used for video conferences, in order to allow Tina to see what her screen was showing.
