"Yo Tina you brought someone home to fuck!" A guy yelled from across the street. A few other guys started hollering perverted things and Tina just tugged on Bette’s arm tighter.

She reached the door, opened it and turned to the guy, "hey Todd, don’t be jealous just because I can get more women than you can!"

A loud ‘OH!’ resonated off the walls and some men yelled out, "burn!" or "you got served!"

Tina smirked she knew Todd was all bark and no bite. Tina knew exactly who to talk to and who to avoid. They walked into the building where there was a young woman with black hair and blue-grey eyes chewing gum obnoxiously and typing away on her laptop.

"’Sup Jenny," Tina said stopping at the desk, "got a house guest so if you hear something in my place when I’m not there it’s cool."

Jenny looked up briefly and glanced at Bette. She smirked in seductive way and said, "aren’t you a pretty little thing."

Bette blushed and hid behind Tina. Tina scolded her, "Jenny stop that!"

Jenny chuckled and said, "what kind of sadist would I be if I didn’t intimidate people?"

"She’s scared Jen so back off," Tina said defensively.

"Oh I see you wanna fuck her yourself," Jenny said laughing.

Tina scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Come on Bette," Tina said tugging on the brunette’s arm towards the elevators.

"Mark my words Kennard you two are fucking tonight," Jenny called out.

"Fuck off Jenny," Tina called back pulling Bette gently into the elevator.

"Bring women here much?" Bette asked feeling a little more comfortable with Tina now that she wasn’t fending off night time prowlers.

"A few girlfriends," Tina said with a nod.

Bette’s eyes widened, "how many girlfriends do you have?"

"None," Tina answered, "I’m pretty monogamous I’ve just had a lot of girlfriends because they weren’t monogamous."

"Well why couldn’t they be?" Bette asked as the elevator dinged and opened on the 9th floor.

Tina gripped her hand and led her out, "this neighborhood is not necessarily the best, they have to do something for money."

"They were prostitutes?" Bette said in surprise.

"We call them hookers here," Tina said unlocking her apartment 910 and letting Bette in.
