“Oh my GOD! You’re ok, that ***** Faye Buckley, she is a nutcase. How is Tina? Is she ok, I don’t believe that she tried to kill you!” Kit looked from Bette to Alice, then to Dana.
“Ex – ***** – scuse me?” Kit bellowed, a few of the costumers gave her a look, and she quieted herself, having forgotten they were in a public venue.
“I hadn’t had a chance to tell Kit, who has never in her life read the paper…” Bette gave Alice a guarded glance; and Al sheepishly looked away.
“Sorry.” Dana took Alice‘s hand, and pulled her into a kiss, soothing her girlfriends shyness. Alice had been besides herself that morning when she’d read the paper, the front page headlines about Bette and Tina‘s near fatal dinner outing.
“No, don’t worry about it I was just about to tell her.” Bette answered, pushing aside a hair that was tickling her nose.
“Tell her what?” Jayden asked, taking a seat at the table, feeling at home in the company of this circle of friends that had quickly become her family in the past month.
“That I, Tina and I were almost killed last night by a gun toting Faye Buckley.” Jayden giggled, and then saw that she was serious and stammered.
“Huh?” They all chuckled at her lack of articulation; the nurse blinked and rubbed her chin. Lara came into view, having been in the back working. She was wearing her white cook uniform and had flower on her cheek from the pastries she was making. She’d seen Jayden walk in and couldn’t resist sneaking out and grabbing a kiss from the woman she loved.
“Uh huh?” Lara said, making fun of Jayden coming up behind Jayden and kissing her ravenously on the neck.
“Bette and Tee almost got killed last night.” Jayden blurted out and Lara bit Jayden lightly, not liking her joking manner.
“OUCH!” Jayden grabbed her neck and Lara scowled at her, hands on her hips staring hard at her girlfriend.
“That wasn’t funny! Haven’t we had enough death and mayhem?” Lara shot at her, slapping Jayden’s hand and Bette shook her head.
