    Reunion

    "Whatever shall we do…" Tina pondered aloud.
    "Where are you staying?
    "Alice is subletting my apartment, so I’ll be there," Tina said. "My parents will make it a full house for two nights before leaving for Australia to see my brother and his family. They leave on Christmas Day."
    "I’ll be back in my house," Bette said. "I rented it to a physician that’s at Cedars Sinai, but she and her husband have found a new place for December first. 
    "You live close to Cedars?"
    "West Hollywood," Bette said. "I can’t believe we had to move to Toronto to run into each other."
    "Long hours spent in a lab. No social life there either," Tina explained. "And everyone lives in their car in L.A."
    "I’m thankful for public transit," Bette said. "I never drive here."
    "I almost drove the day I saw you," Tina said. "I was supposed to meet Alice, then I had to head back to campus."
    "I’m thankful you didn’t drive," Bette said.
    "So am I," Tina replied.

    Tina and Bette were browsing in the same aisle of the bookstore, but with their backs to each other. Tina noticed out of the corner of her eye that someone was walking towards her, but didn’t pay much attention until she heard her name.
    "Tina, I thought that was you."
    "Hi Sarah, how are you?"
    Bette tried to observe their interaction surreptitiously. The woman speaking to Tina was quite attractive. She knew better than to be jealous but couldn’t help but be discomfited by the presence of that very emotion as she pretended to be absorbed by the book she held.
    "I was planning to speak with you after Monday’s seminar, but maybe we can set up a more formal meeting?" Sarah said. "I’ve already received two offers of admission to Ph.D. programs."
    "That’s fantastic!" Tina replied with enthusiasm, reaching to hug Sarah. "What can I help with?"
    "There aren’t very many women doing Ph.Ds in physics," Sarah said. "I want to make the decision that’s best for my career. I think of you as a mentor and I want your advice about what to consider. If you’re here alone tonight, we could go to the cafe…"

    1. Plans for Christmas and into the New Year and beyond, clarification on how to introduce one another and promises of what the morning will bring. Progress, or surety of where they’re heading? Thanks for the post, jks. And I’ll read anything you write, pairing/storyline is irrelevant. Cheers :)

    3. First, I would be happy to read any chapters from your Shane/Tina story.:) Second, there’s so many possibilities ahead for Bette and Tina in this tale. I’m so glad they both hate New Year’s Eve! My New Year’s wish is that Dana is still alive in this L-World.
