Doctor (laughing): If you are getting exercise and feeling good then more power to you!

Bette (giggling): Thanks!

Doctor Holloway: I’ll take your pulse and heartbeat, and then leave you lovebirds to yourselves! (Doctor Holloway took Bette’s heartbeat and pulse, and then she was done) You seem much better; you can leave tomorrow, but try to save some energy, Mrs. Kennard. (With that, she left the room and Bette and Tina continued to giggle and held one another tightly.)

Tina (giggling): She so fucking knew it!

Bette: But at least I got some exercise from it!

(The giggling died down and they both gazed into one another’s eyes for a few minutes then kissed tenderly.)

Tina: But I am glad that I am your exercise machine.

Bette: And you will continue to keep me going and going and going!

Tina: Want to watch TV, babe?

Bette: Nah, I just want to snuggle with you and then talk to Kit later.

Tina: That can be arranged! (Tina rested her head on Bette’s chest and Bette began to stroke her hair and kissing her softly.)

(Later in the early afternoon, Bette called Kit on the phone and Kit was thrilled to hear from her.)

Kit: Hey girl, how are you doing?

Bette: Aw, I’m doing great now since my wife is here with me. (Bette gazed up at Tina and Tina kissed Bette softly on the forehead.)

Kit: I am so glad you are doing better; I was worried about you, baby girl!

Bette (snickering): There is nothing to worry about; I’m going to be fine!

Kit: Why do I have a feeling you two have been up to something?

(Bette and Tina started giggling again and Kit could hear the giggling on the receiver. She shook her head and had a smile on her face.)

Kit: I know what you two have been up to and both of you are nasty!

Bette (laughing harder): At least I’m feeling better, Kit! (Tina laughed harder with Bette and had her head buried in Bette’s shoulder.)

Kit: Um hmm, is the hospital still standing??

Bette (taking a deep breath): Oh god Kit, please stop or I’ll wet myself!
