    “I can’t light no more of your darkness. All my pictures seem to fade to black and white.” B/T

    *****

    Bette’s forehead scrunched up in puzzlement. She’d been watching the documentary for almost an hour and still she couldn’t figure out if it was real or a satire of some sort about the extravagant and dissolute lifestyle of rock bands in the early 80′s. Their accents were real enough, Bette decided. While it was not Bette’s usual fare, the film had captured her attention early on and she couldn’t seem to look away.

    When Tina arrived, Bette knew she should get up and give her at least a hug or a kiss as an apology for how she had acted earlier. But she let the urge pass, sure that Tina was still angry. I’m too tired and numb to get into another fight. Bette was certain that if she and Tina were to even try to converse, that it would turn into a fight. And somehow, she was just too tired.

    Bette heard Tina moving around in the next room. She heard the scoot of a chair and the sound of typing. Probably writing another paper. Bette chastized herself for not being more supportive. After all, when you were in college, only a fire in the dorm would have forced you out of your room, she taunted herself. She was always studying, first for her undergraduate degree, then for her post-graduate degree. I’m the last person to tell Tina to knock off working for one night to sit here with me, watching this idiotic but strangely hypnotic film.

    A low growl from her stomach reminded her that she skipped dinner. She wondered if Tina had eaten and where. She only saw Tina take a bag of chips and a glass of soda from the kitchen. Tina sure was in a hurry to write that paper, Bette commented to herself. She briefly considered getting up to make a sandwich, then decided, why bother?

    Suddenly, a shrill tone startled her enough that she dropped the remote. She quickly grabbed at her cellphone that she had placed on the floor near her feet. She pressed a random button, cutting off the message alert. Eyes wide, she stared at the door to the study, certain that Tina would come in any moment with accusations and recriminations. When the door remained half-open and no Tina came out, Bette exhaled softly.

    What the hell is wrong with me? It’s just a text message. Bette quickly opened her inbox. From Candace.

    Hi Bette I hope I didn’t wake you. I was wondering if I could call you right now. – Candace

    What?! Right now?! At our house?! Bette fumbled and groped out a reply.

    Call me tomorrow at work.

    She hit the send button and almost threw the phone with all her might against the wall. No goddammit! What have I done?!

    2. How about Spinal Tap? Very strange movie but it was kind of addictive.This was a sad update. They’re drifting dangerously in opposite directions. Bette will lose a true love if she goes back to Candace.

    7. Elton John (still) rocks! Hey, Lamentamini, I just did a quiz on some site and turns out, I have the personality of one Rupert Giles. Bloody hell. So, being an unimaginative British librarian type, I need your help. What, pray tell, should your prize be?!

    8. Wow! So it’s not as obscure a reference as I thought :D The prize goes to… Lamentamini for giving the full title :D Sammer gets a special award for first comment and almost correct answer. Now I need a prize…

    9. My second guess, based on it being a mockumentary about a fictitious band, was The Ruttles (I saw it years ago on VH-1). But they were mocking the Beatles which obviously weren’t from the 80s.

    10. Bette, Bette, what are you DOING? And Tina, what are YOU doing? Hm, emphasis changes nothing, they’re both acting the same. They’re having a problem, and by doing nothing to address it, they’re risking losing everything. Good update, and more please. Thanks, 7! :)

    11. You’ve captured the demise of their relationship. It starts so insidiously just by lack of communication and lazy communication, not holding each other accountable. Excellent writing.

    12. what have you done? you’re making me nervous…candace is back and tina’s chatting excitedly with a single lesbian…i’m scared for tibette
