A banging noise awake Tina from her peaceful sleep and she wrinkled her brow in confusion. She looked across the bed and found it empty, and a quick glance at the clock on the side told her that it was almost 10am, just two hours before her wedding was scheduled to begin.

"Shit!" she yelled, jumping out of bed.

She pulled on a robe and ran to answer the door, finding her three unimpressed bridesmaids.

"Hey guys" she said sheepishly, letting Alice, Dana and Helena into the house.

"What the hell took you so long? And why don’t you look even vaguely ready?" Alice grilled her.

"Erm…maybe because I’m not"

"Where’d Bette go?" Helena asked.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Her cars not in the drive, what did you forget? I mean, we’ve got the dress" Alice said, holding up a large bag.

"She’s gone? Shit!"

Tina ran back to the bedroom and emerged minutes later dressed in jeans and a tank top. She grabbed her car keys and headed to the door.

"Where the hell are you going now?" Alice called after her.

"I have to go, just…make yourself at home or something"

"Tina, you’re getting married in two hours!" Dana yelled as the blonde disappeared out of the door.

"I don’t care!"

The three women stared at one another in shock as they heard Tina’s car pull out of the driveway. Alice, more than anyone, was frustrated at feeling like she was missing out on something huge.

As she pulled out into Bette’s road, the blonde realised that she actually had no idea where she was going. Come on Tina she thought to herself if you were Bette, where would you go?

There were so many places that she could be, and the blonde didn’t have time to check them all. Suddenly it dawned on her. Whenever Bette needed peace, she went to the park and sat by the fountain. She always described the statue in the middle as one of her favourite pieces of art, and said that the sounds of the water relaxed her. The blonde put her foot on the gas and sped off in the direction of the park. Her stomach was fluttering with nerves as she pulled up on a side road and jumped out. Please be here please be here please be here she chanted in her head.
