“Well for your sake I hope she isn’t one of your poor victims,” Bette motioned in the direction of Shane’s desire. “Tina has warned me to keep you away from her.” Bette finished with a smirk.

“Tina? How. . . “ Shane asked confused. Before she could gather her senses, the girl was walking over to them, with a beaming smile at Bette.

“Well, well, well Bette. Why am I not surprised you are a Jackie’s Jilll kinda woman.” Carmen greeted Bette in her sassy manner but mostly interested in her companion. “Hi,” she sweetly smiled at Shane. Looking at her as if trying to figure something out about her.

“Hi,” Shane replied with her side grin and puppy dog eyes that had women throwing themselves at her.

“This is your hang out?” Carmen turned to question Bette? Stealing a glance at Shane and finding the two women very interesting. What a combination? One classically handsome and statuesque and the other boyishly cute and lanky.

“Carmen,” Bette gestured to Shane, “That’s my best friend Shane and Carmen here is Tina’s friend.” Bette ended by telling Shane once again. Shane looked from Bette to Carmen and then back to Carmen again.

“Care to join us?” Shane invited Carmen.

“I would love that and be the envy of every woman who walks in here,” she cheekily said. “But I’m having drinks with my girl Tina.” She directed this to Bette, in an almost accusatory manner

“I’m getting us beers, can I at least get you a drink?” Bette offered Carmen already on her feet and gliding towards the bar. Shane watched Carmen look at her friend in a not so innocent way and surprising herself too for feeling jealous. Shane cleared her throat and prepared to say something but Carmen beat her to it.

“You and your Alpha selves, how cute. Come to cry on each others’ shoulders about women whose hearts you’ve broken?” Carmen asked a bit too harshly to Shane whom she’d just met.

“Woah, wait up. You’ve just met me.” Shane defended.

“Yeah, but I’ve known Tina for long enough to know of the two of you. You best warn your friend that my friend is not a plaything and isn’t going to waste her time on a player. You get that?” Carmen was now close to Shane’s face and scaring her. Shane backed up and just nodded praying for Bette’s return. Before Carmen pulled back, Shane got a glimpse of her cleavage and a whiff of her perfume, so when Carmen pulled back and looked at Shane, her eyes were closed and she had a silly grin on her face.
