“Okay have a great day see you tonight, “Alice says walking out of the door.

Still sitting on the couch, “Fuck I hate being in the dog house.”

Both Bette and Tina were at home getting things ready. Once a month they held date night at their home. It was a way for everyone to catch up with one another, have some drinks, and enjoy a great movie. They set up their backyard with outdoor couches and chairs. In the middle of the setup was a wooden table. Sitting on top of the table where chips, snack trays, and a mini bar. On the far left side of the table was a fire pit. A couple of inches away was a giant projector screen standing on a tripod. The date night movie scene had been set. Each couple had their own couch and chairs it was a very romantic setting. Tina had been banned from choosing the movies as everyone complained they were too sappy. So, it was Kits turn to pick the movie and she choose Casino starring Robert DeNiro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci.

“Hey T you think these are going to be enough blankets?”

“Yeah, I think so.”

“Hey do you know who Kit is bringing tonight?”

“No, but whoever she brings better not be that fossil she bought with her last time.”

“Bette that’s not nice!”

“What T, I mean we couldn’t hear the movie cause he was breathing to damn loud.”

“Hahahahha—– Bette he wasn’t that bad.”

Bette stares at her.

“Okay, yeah he was pretty bad.”

Just then Tina hears the doorbell.

“Hey you guys, “Tina says opening the door seeing Carmen and Shane.

“Hey, “they both say greeting her.

Next to arrive was Helena, Dylan, and Max.

Helena walking in the backyard, “Guys this looks great!”

“Thanks, “Bette says.

Next to arrive was Kit followed by Tasha.

“Hello everyone,”Kit says flashing the Casino movie DVD in her hand.

“Yo, Tash where is Alice, “Max asks.

“Oh she’s coming she’ll be here after she gets off of work.”

Shane walking up to Tasha, “Still in the doghouse huh?”

“Yup with the fleas and all.”

“Damn, “Shane says laughing slightly.

When Alice arrived she walked in the back and saw everyone coupled up. She was hoping that an empty chair was available because she didn’t want to share a couch with Tasha. When she saw Tasha she was lying down wrapped in a blanket with her head on a pillow.
