“Like fucking the lead?”  Helena helped her out.

“Exactly like that” Alice nodded as Helena just stared waiting for them get a clue.

“What!?”  Dana and Alice sat forward then placed their arms on the table and simultaneously said.  “When?”

“Since the night my party” Helena looked proud of herself “Apparently they hooked up there and according to Tina” she placed her order with the waitress “they’ve been hooking up everyday since.”

“My god” Alice shook her head.

“Wait, didn’t Nikki take whathisface to that party?”  Dana remembered.

“Yes, and that’s what’s causing the riff between them right now.”  Monique told them “I think they’ve broken up.”

“I knew it wouldn’t last” Alice said.

“You just found out about them hooking up like a minute ago” Dana looked at Alice in disbelief.

“Not to mention the break up a second after the first announcement” Helena added.

“It doesn’t take this long to assess something like that” Alice said as she crooked an index finger at her temple.

“But it takes that even longer to figure out whether they love someone or not” Dana said under her breath.

“What?”  Alice looked at Dana.

“Nothing” Dana saw Tina return followed by Kit who was holding a jumpy Angie.

“I can’t wait for one of you to have kids” Tina glared at Alice and Dana who looked shyly at the table “and you’re lucky Bette isn’t here to see this or else she’d have both your behinds.”

“What ever I’m not scared of Bette” Alice put up a brave front.

“I am” Dana wasn’t as brave and truthfully said.

On the set crew members were busy scrambling around doing Jenny’s bidding while Carmen, who wasn’t as intimidated by the director as the rest of them, sat doing a final sound check before shooting the scene.  Shane spotted her right away and slowly made her way over to try to talk to her ex.  She stood by the light fixtures falsely checking for loose wires which she had no knowledge about.

“Just get over here and talk me already” Carmen said knowing what her ex was doing.  She turned to Shane and watched her finally give in.
