They had already spoken to Angie, they knew that she had understood as soon as she put her tiny hand on Tina’s stomach and then lent forward and kissed it. Tina felt the tears rising in her eyes again as she remembered that tender moment.  That would stay with her forever.

Tina finished her drink and looked at the time, she decided that she still had some piece and quite left before Alice showed up, getting out of bed she walked into the kitchen and made herself another drink, opening the patio doors she walked out side and sat on the sun longer enjoying the early morning sun on her face.

As she was sat there quietly thinking about the day in front of her, Alice walked thought the gate carrying her dress for later in her hand

“morning T”

“hey Al”

Alice walked over to Tina giving her a hug.

“sorry I’m early but I was just so excited”

Tina started laughing, “I was expecting you to show up early”

“glad I didn’t disappoint you then”

“Al you could never do that”

Alice smiled at Tina as she walked into the house putting her dress bag on the table, walked into the kitchen poured herself a coffee and rejoined her outside.

“herd from Bette this morning”

Tina didn’t say anything she just continued drinking.

Alice watched her waiting for an answer, realising one was not forth coming, it suddenly hit her

“she came over last night didn’t she”

Tina just nodded

Alice laughed “couldn’t even spend one night apart, that is so sweet”

“I know, she came over after two in the morning, I thought she was an intruder I was just about ready to dial 911, when she appeared in the bedroom got into bed, then we fell asleep”

“is Bette still here” Alice asked as she looked back into the house

“she was gone before I woke this morning, she’ll be at Kit’s by know”

“how you feeling about everything”

Tina looked at Alice as she said “I’m great, later today I’m marrying the woman who I have always loved, with our closest friends and family watching, it just couldn’t get any better”
