Alright. Ill try to make sure shes out of the house. Tinas mind was reeling. She couldnt believe Dana was friends with Michelle Sedara and that she was keeping it hidden from Alice. She understood Danas motive for keeping it quiet, but she couldnt help thinking about how deceitful it was.

Alice plopped herself down on Bette and Tinas couch. Do we really have to go out to eat? We could just order take out. Alice picked up the remote.

Alice, do you have to turn on the tv?

Alice thought for a moment, Have to such a strong phrase. Want to is more what Im thinking.

Tinas eyes widened at Bette, What time are the Emmys on?

Eight, I think, Bette responded.

Tina peeked at her watch. Six thirty. Tina joined Alice on the couch, What are you watching?

Melissa Rivers. I wonder if her and the cat killing-

Alice! Tina reprimanded.

Are still together. Dana thinks Gabbys evil why cant I think the same of her ex? Ooh, and that really hot and I mean H-O-T hot actress whos ***** is going to win the Emmy tonight. Michelle Sedara.

Tina coughed.

T, you ok there? Alice patted her on the back.

Yeah, she croaked.

Youre not choking if youre talking.

What about this Michelle Sedara?

Dont you two watch tv? Geez. Oh, this must be Bettes influence. T, Im so disappointed.

Bette threw her arms up and walked back to her bedroom.

Bette, Im just kidding. Alice jumped off the couch and jogged over to the bedroom. Bette. Did I upset you?

Bette shook her head, No. Youre right in a sense. T and I have been out of the loop a bit.

Are you doing that thing where youre going to lecture me? Cause I really hated when you did that when we were together.

No, Im not going to lecture you. Have you and Dana set a date?

We havent spoken three words about the wedding since she proposed. Its like why did she propose then? Alice kept shaking her head as if an answer would come to her.
