“That’s because there’s nothing to deny” Bette picked up her purse then got up from her seat.  “I am only going to say this once” she gave Kit a cold hard stare “I have no romantic interest in Kelly Wentworth.”

“Maybe you don’t but she’s making it clear as day that she has romantic interest” Kit said the last part with exaggerated air quotations “in you.  I was way across the room and I could see the signals flying between the two of you.”

“Maybe signals from her but none from me.  Even if she did, which I’m not saying that she does, she’s wasting her time because I’m in love with Tina” Bette stood hand on hip.

“You just remember that” Kit told her.

“Why are you getting on my case Kit?”  Bette wanted to know what her sister’s problem was.

“Because at one point in time you forgot about the love of your life” Kit didn’t want to waste her time in reminding Bette of the nights she stayed over after Tina left.

“Is everyone going to keep bringing that up every time I talk to a beautiful woman?”  Bette was getting to the point where she couldn’t think of a proper response and just spoke whatever came to mind.

“I’m not trying to persecute you Bette, it’s just that I know how you are” Kit tried to look her sister in the eye to get her attention.  “Come on look at me” Bette looked down at her sister.  “You love the attention” Kit looked at her sister for any sign of denial “there’s a reason why they call it flirting, and I remember how obsessed you were about that girl.”

“That was a long time ago, I swear to you I’m not trying to start anything with Kelly” Bette looked up at the ceiling to keep her tears at bay.  “I remember the pain from Kelly’s rejection and you witnessed it first hand, but all of that would seem like a day in the park compared to” tears welled up in her eyes “what would happen if I ever lost Tina and Angie.”  Bette quickly wiped away the tears and quickly composed herself before she turned and walked out of the café.
