"Bette, Angie is supposed to be here at 2," Tina urged.

"Well, fuck. I’ll jump in the shower and then start lunch for you and I. do u think Angie’s eaten?"

"Yea, they were supposed to go lunch today." Tina shook her head, trying to get some type of motivation accumulated.

Bette quickly showered and changed and then hurried to the kitchen, just to hear a knock at the door. 1:59pm. Bette walked to the door and opened it carefully to reveal two girls in autumn jackets hugging tightly.

"Hey Bette"

"Hi Michelle. Thank you so much for taking Angie last night. I hope she wasn’t too hyper?"

"O no thanks needed. The girls had fun last night. Were in bed pretty early too," Michelle smiled and continued, "She’s already had lunch and should be good to go".

The plump dark woman was interrupted by an excited five year old "Momma!" Bette lowered her arms to catch Angelica who was already in mid-air and bounced her until she was sitting comfortably on her hip. The little girl wrapped her arms around her mother and looked inside the house.

"Again, thanks Michelle," Bette concluded as she turned towards the house and began walking inside.

"Any time Bette," Michelle replied as she was buckling her daughter in the backseat.

"Where’s Momma T at?" Angie inquired as Bette let go of the tall yet thin child.

"Momma T is taking a shower, baby," Bette answered gently as she and Angie walked to the kitchen. Angie climbed on top of a stool that was sitting by the island in the center of the kitchen as Bette took out turkey breast and cheese from the refrigerator to make two sandwiches.

"So baby, do you remember when you went with me and picked out the ring for momma T?"

"Yea! It was really pretty!!! Did you give it to momma?”

"Yes. I gave it to momma when you were at Rachel’s house," Bette replied as she placed the two sandwiches on individual plates.  "And," Bette started walking over to the little girl, "I asked her to marry me," Bette said enthusiastically as she began to tickle her daughter.

The little girl began to giggle loudly and attempted to say "what’d she say? What’d she say?"

"What did who say?" Tina asked curiously as she emerged from the bedroom in a tank top and fleece pants with damp hair.

Bette’s eyes quickly focused on Tina’s figured. She loved how Tina’s hair curled slightly when it was wet and how it fell in her face hiding those hypnotizing hazel eyes.

"What did you say when Momma B asked you to marry me?"

"Well," Tina began as she strode to the little girl and engulfed her into her arms, “do you wanna wear a pretty dress, Angie?"

"Yes! It can be pink or purple!!!" Angie exclaimed.

Tina smiled widely, "Then I think that can be arranged". She giggled and her eyes drifted to Bette who had finished the sandwiches and was heading towards the table. 

They ate as Angelica opened her coloring books and began to color. Bette had always been adamant about allowing angelica to have a large and full collection of art supplies.

After finishing the light meal, the couple rested on the previously violated couch, holding hands and entangling legs.  "You know we have to tell the girls, soon," Bette said as she smiled at Tina who was still in a light daze from all of their recent activates. "Yea I know, I just hate not being with the girls."

"Tina?"

"Yea, babe?"

"Do you regret moving to New York?"

Tina’s eyes fell to search for Bette’s hand and gently entwined it with hers. "No, Bette. I don’t regret moving to New York. I just miss our friends. I mean, it’s so different without them here."

"Well, when does the movie wrap?"

Perplexed, Tina replied, "umm, in a couple of weeks….why?"

Bette looked over towards Angie who was still so enchanted by her coloring book before adjusting so that she had her arms around the still-perplexed blonde. "Well," Bette began, "I was thinking that after you wrap, we could take some time off and go to LA. Tell the girls in person and I’m sure everyone will want to see Angie….."

Before Bette could finish, Tina rushed her lips onto Bette’s and kissed her with the utmost adoration.
