This is Fred. It was taken just a week ago. Shes due in a month.
Tina took Shane in her arms, pulling her close and resting her chin on top of her head in a motherly fashion. She took in Shanes scent, the smell that hadnt changed at all over the years. Tina held on, squeezing Shane, her body scrawny and thin and older, with a maturity that Tina hadnt seen before. She realized how much she missed over time, and regret swept over her. Tina could feel Shanes silent laughter as her body shook. She was overjoyed.
You never even said goodbye. Tina whispered, holding back tears. You always thought you were so cool, huh? Tina pulled away and smacked her on the leg.
Hey… ouch! Shane laughed and playfully pushed Tina. I never meant to hurt any of you. I just felt like I had to go and start over. Things here were… bad. She looked around the circle.
You disappeared, Shane, for like four days. Then I get a letter in the mail telling me youve moved. That was it. Alice jumped over the coffee table to wrestle Shane on the cushions.
It was a ***** thing to do. Dana agreed, lunging at Shane, taking her turn in tackling and tickling her. It turned into a big pile of Dana, Alice and Tina on top of a defenseless Shane, giggling and laughing. When they finally settled down, they all squeezed on the couch together enjoying their feelings of youth and silliness. Bette sat alone across them in the chair, unmoving. They sat there quietly and awkwardly, unsure of what to say or do and wondering why Bette hadnt jumped in with them. She suddenly stood and headed towards the kitchen, taking two empty wine bottles with her.
More wine? She asked.
They nodded and Alice jumped up. Ill help you.
Bette was about to protest but Alice pushed her into the kitchen before she could say anything. Alice found two more bottles of wine and uncorked them, then leaned against the counter staring at Bette.

I would love a scene where they all have it out. One big dirty laundry session. I think you could do a great job of writing it.
lots of strong emotions still — maybe they are finally ready for some heavy honesty — great set up == thanks

It’s amazing how you are so capable of capturing heavy emotions and palpable tensions in a scene.

Bette is not going anywhere. She owes it to herself to stay. She and Tina still seems to be angry with each other. Lets make a good book for that new baby. get the gang to work together one last time.
