Wearing black skinny jeans, a slim muscle shirt with the words ACDC across, and black leather boots Shane sat in the corner of the Planet facing the door. She had been waiting for someone or should we say some ones. Last night had been insane—a night of partying. She woke surprisingly with no sign of a hangover, nope, nothing. Shane was finally cleaning up her act. After what had happened the night of Bette and Tina’s farewell party Shane had a presentiment. But first she needed to clean up her act and that meant no booze and drugs.  Clubbing she still held on to, c’mon a girls got to have some fun now and then right?

“Well isn’t it Miss Angelica!” Shane ruffled the hairs of Angelica’s head. The little girl shook her head, trying to get her Aunt to stop. She was only three, was able to speak but still had been very shy.

“Thanks for taking her today Shane, we really appreciate it. Bette’s got this big meeting and I’ve got to get on set… Are you sure it’s okay that she spends the night?” Tina asked.

Just then they heard Angelica’s screaming and whipped their heads to the floor. Alice the big goof was on her arms and legs imitating as if she were a dog, she barked. “Ruff Ruff” startling the quiet girl.

Angelica put her hands up to mother with a panicked expression. Tina held in her laughter and pulled her daughter into her arms, her hands rubbing her daughters back, assuring her she was safe.

“I thought there was a no animal policy at the Planet, didn’t Kit hire exterminators after that SheBar incident? I’ve got to call Kit and tell her they didn’t get one—a BIG ONE at that.” Bette said as she threw a leg over Alice, walking over her and taking a seat by Tina and Angelica.  Shane and Tina chuckled. Bette leaned over and kissed Tina then Angie who she now had sitting on her lap. “Mmm sorry babe I couldn’t find parking.”

Alice stood up patting the dust of her hands and clothing. “Porter!”

Bette’s eyes widen in  mock shock. “Holy smokes, the dog speaks like us Ti!” Tina and Shane burst into laughter. Angie sees her Mom’s and Aunt Shane laughing and joins in the laugh.
