“Bette you looking for me?” Louise asked popping her head in Bette’s office door
“Yes I was come in shut the door” Bette smiled
“How’s Jess?”
“Not so good but we have a few things up our sleeves” Bette explained
“Ok how can I help?” Louise asked
“I was thinking about offering her the music teacher position we have what do you think?” Bette asked
“I think this school would be lucky to have her” Louise smiled
“Do you think she would be able to do it?” Bette asked
“There isn’t an instrument she can’t play; she’s had so much experience, I think the kids would gain so much from her and she would gain so much from the kids”
“Yeah I feel that too but obviously it’s your department and I didn’t want to tread on your toes” Bette smiled
“Hey you know how I feel about Jess” Louise smiled
Bette smiled as Louise left her office; she lifted her bag and car keys making her way home.
“Baby I think it’s a bit soon to offer her the job, I mean it’s a lot” Tina said
“I agree but the job will wait for her, were not in a hurry to fill the position, I just want to see how she feels about it”
“Well I suppose all you could do is ask her and see what she thinks” Tina said “I can’t believe Carmen got the summer set to ambush her”
“Genius plan, see that is why I love Carmen, She knows how to push Jess’s buttons without her knowing, it’s brilliant”
“Mama I’m so hungry I could eat a horse” mason said coming into the kitchen
“Honey Lisa doesn’t finish work till 5pm” Bette smiled
“So because Lisa isn’t home we can’t eat?” Mason said confused
“It’s only an hour away then I’ll make dinner” Tina smiled
“Can I have crisps just now?” Mason tried
“No you can have an apple” Bette smiled
“I think I’m going to pass on that” Mason replied going back to the TV

“So what you think of that?” Brian asked
“I don’t know, Brian I can’t think, I have writers block!!”Jess snapped
“What’s running through your head at the minute?”
“I don’t fucking know, I haven’t got a clue” Jess snapped
“How about you had an amazing girlfriend you dumped her and ended up with a looney that you didn’t love and the fact you’re still in love with Carmen?” Brian said
Jess looked at him and if looks could kill he’d be dead
“You’re a dick!”
“You love it, Jess I’m not letting you hide or throw away what you have for that complete idiot!” Brian said
“He’s right and that’s why your pissed” Jess smirked
“What is this? Gang up on Jess day?”
“You can’t deny what you and Carmen had was beautiful, everything you went through, yet you did the typical jess thing and when things got tough you fucked off and put your walls up” Steven said
“Guy’s I really don’t need to hear this right now, I’m fragile enough thanks”
“No you’re not because were not letting you be a victim, look Kirsty was a mistake a fucking huge one, Were all team Carmen”
“This isn’t a fucking twilight movie, it’s not like Team Edward and Jacob” Jess snapped standing up
She walked to the door of the studio.
“I think you will find the door is locked” Brian smirked
“You’re a complete dick!” Jess snapped “Open the door”
“No you’re not running or hiding, were going to write a song together even if it kills us” Brian said
“I can’t do this right now Brian” Jess said getting upset
The other Jess got up from behind the drum kit and walked over to Jess, “You can we believe in you, Kelly believes in you and so does your fans, the amount of fan mail you have in Kelly’s office is frightening”
“Let’s sing just a dream” Brian suggested “The first song we sang together”
“I fucking hate that song” Jess admitted
“You were also in a bad place too when we sung that so come on” Brian smiled holding out his hand “You can do this Jess”
Kelly stood at the window watching them
“No Seriously Carmen I thought Brian was about to get his face punched there but he seems to be getting through to her with this tough approach”
“She doesn’t need any more shit though, I told him not to pressure her”
“Just shut up leave him too it, I’ll call you later” Kelly smiled ending the call
