Shane was woken up by the noise. The first thing she sees in Carmen charging towards Molly with her hand raised ready to slap Molly. The sound of the slap was so loud everyone in the station turned to look. Carmen stood shocked at who she had hit. Shane could taste her salty blood in her mouth.

Shane: Molly, I’m sorry I can’t give you a proper greeting today, but I have to talk with Carmen.

Molly gave Carmen a wicked smile.

Molly: I’ll see you some other time then Shane.

Shane didn’t know about the kiss or anything else, she woke up to screaming and then getting slapped in the face. Carmen was quiet. Bette closed the office door. Carmen reached out to touch Shane’s cheek but Shane pushed her hand away.

Shane: Carmen, what do you want?

Carmen: I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hit you. She kissed you and I was angry.

Shane: I don’t care what she did. You were out all night and I’ve been looking all over for you. I finally get some sleep but wake up to you trying to attack someone.

Shane was pissed and Carmen could tell. She just stayed quiet.

Shane: Just let me be alone for a while. Please.

Carmen left the room and ran towards the garage where her car was parked with tears streaming down her face. Tina went in.

Tina: Let me see that face of yours.

Shane: It’s nothing.

Tina sighed.

Tina: Don’t be too hard on her. Molly did give you that kiss or else she wouldn’t have reacted that way.

Shane nodded.

Shane: I’m just too tired to think right now.

Bette chased after Carmen.

Bette: Carmen!

Carmen slowed down but didn’t turn around.

Bette: Hey, don’t cry. Shane’s just tired and a bit angry because she was so worried about you last night.

Carmen: I was going to text her, but my phone ran out of batteries. Then we just all fell asleep on the floor.

Carmen’s tears were falling freely now. Bette gave her a hug.
