Do you wish you hadnt come? Tinas back was to Bette as she asked the question.

T, Im just stressed, please dont make this harder on me by trying to guilt me out about wanting to do a good job with this show. It means a lot for my career. Bette was resigned to having Tina be angry with her if thats what she felt she needed at that point.

Im not trying to guilt you out, Bette. We were having a good weekend, and it sounds like James has this under control. You dont have to be queen bee running the hive every second of the day you know. Tina stated.

Bette resisted the urge to continue arguing, but thought better of it. She reached for the newspaper that had been deposited at their front door that morning and pretended to be interested in the headlines. Tina continued to pack their belongings in silence

Shane pulled the van up to the circular drive in front of the main lobby entrance. Everyone was packed and ready for the short drive back to LA.

You guys wanna take the back? Alice inquired of Bette and Tina.

Im going to ride up front if thats alright with everyone, Tina said as she put her bag into the van.

Bette rolled her eyes at Alice and mouthed dont ask to her friends inquiring glance.

Why dont you two take the back? Bette waved Alice and Dana into the vehicle ahead of her.

Actually Shane do you mind if I drive? Dana called up to Shane, who had her wrist casually slung over the top of the steering wheel awaiting their departure. Bette raised her eyebrows at Alice who only shook her head in response.

Yeah, sure Dane, whatever works, Shane opened the drivers side door and stepped out to claim another seat.

The first part of the ride passed in relative silence, with each passenger reflecting on the events of the last two days.

Hey guys, I have a way to pass the time Alice started.

Your method on the way here was an effective way to speed up the trip, whats your idea this time? asked Shane.

I know it sounds kinda crazy, but its just a game ok, so hear me out before you shoot me down
