“Hey!” whispered Alice loud enough to Bette, that Tina and Shane heard her. Bette decided to ignore this, Tina noticed and a smile formed on her face. “Bette!” Bette ignored her again. Now Shane and Tina were giggling. “Bette, I know you’re doing this on purpose. Bette turned her attention to Alice and laughed silently.
“What is it Alice?” asked Bette.
“I have new,” said Alice.
“News or gossip?”
“Does it matter?” Bette looked at Tina and Shane and signed. “Anyways, I heard that Jody and Megan broke up.”
“Are you serious? That’s the best you can do? I knew that already.”Alice was surprised that Bette knew before her and looked from Tina to Shane.
“How did you found out?”
“Tina and I have pottery class with Jody.” Alice didn’t know this.
“You have pottery class? Since when?”
“Since forever, I like pottery.” Alice turned too Shane, “Did you know about this?”
“Yeah, she made a pot for me the other day.” Alice was flabbergasted.
“Alice let it go, it doesn’t matter,” said Bette.
“Fine, but you better make a pot for me too,” said Alice. Bette chuckled, ”Alright, why did you find it important to tell me that anyways?”
“Well, I thought that you and Jody would make a great couple,” said Alice beaming.
“Why would you think that?” asked Bette.
“Well, you are both very interested in art.”
“So?”
“So? Perfect match,” said Alice. Bette laughed and couldn’t believe that Alice thought that Jody and her would match.
“Alice, listen to me. Jody and I don’t have anything in common aside from art. And I don’t even like her that much, too big an ego for me.”
“Oh please, she’s gorgeous and smart. What’s not to like.”
“Well, then you date her.” Alice gave Bette a skeptical look.
“I’m with Dana,” Alice said.
“That’s great, so stop picking girls for me. I can find my own dates.” Alice let out a sign and went on with her work. Bette smiled at her friends intentions. “But, you know Alice you can try to set her up with Tina here.” Tina immediately raised her head from her work. “What?” asked Tina horrified. Bette laughed at Tina’s horrified face. Alice turned to Tina. “Tina? You like Jody?”
“No,” answered Tina scared and hesitant. Bette kept on giggling. “Oh come on Tina, we won’t tell,” said Alice.
“You won’t tell? You’re the queen in gossiping,” said Tina. “Score,” Bette said giving Tina a high five, Shane couldn’t stop laughing. Alice became mad and said:”Fine! Don’t tell me.”
“Alice, I was only joking,” said Bette. “I don’t know who Tina likes.” Alice immediately turned to Tina and asked:” Who do you like?” Tina felt under pressure. “I don’t like anybody.”
“Are you sure?” asked Alice. Tina looked from Alice to Bette to Shane.
“No, I don’t. I’m not interested in anybody at the moment.” They all got the point at presided with their work.
