Thirty minutes later Bette walks through to the kitchen hoping she wasn’t about to find an irate Tina.

Tina is sitting there, eating a bowl of cereal and sipping coffee, while reading Bette’s paper. Bette walks over to the breakfast bar and sits opposite, pouring herself a coffee.

Tina glares up and then looks back to the paper.

Bette notices this, and smiles, pouring herself some cereal. She then looks to her paper, which Tina has commandeered.

Tina sees this. “Don’t even think about it,” the grouchy blonde says without looking up.

“Excuse me?” Bette says raising her eyebrows.

“You were evil, so the paper is mine” Tina says doing her best to look angry, secretly just wanting to laugh at the cheekiness of the brunette.

“I wasn’t evil. I just didn’t want to see you running out of the house again without breakfast” Bette justified.

“I am perfectly capable of deciding when it is time for me to go to bed. I can’t believe you did that” Tina says grinning now looking up at Bette.

“You can’t believe I did it? I can’t believe you actually went to bed!” Bette laughs.

“Oh shut up” the blonde says, ‘Oh my god, that’s true, why did I just go to bed, I didn’t have to’. They are both shaking their heads and grinning.

“Does someone like being told what to do? Hey, T?” Bette looks at Tina seductively, raising an eyebrow.

“No. Does someone like being bossy?” Tina throws back. “Anyway shush, I’m reading”

“Shush?” Bette asks eating another mouthful of cereal.

“Yes shush” Tina says not looking up.

They both sit there. Tina thinking ‘Fuck, please just kiss me, just grab me, take me to your room and have your way with me. I don’t care if I’m late, I don’t care if we take the rest of the week off.’

The brunette is thinking ‘Oh my god, what are we doing here. This is nuts, the sexual tension is so obvious. I know she feels something, but what if she doesn’t, what if she’s like this with everyone. Please Tina just say something, give me a sign.’ They both glance up at the same time, instantly looking back down. The air suddenly becomes tense.
