Sam : “I just wish…ummmm…it had never happened”

Tina : “I know but it has so we just have to deal with it ok…but don’t cry”

That just seem to make her cry harder…Tina felt so bad that she couldn’t do anything to help….Holding Sam in her arms like this made Tina remember when Sam was about 3 and she was 18 and her Mom and Dad had gone away for the weeked and left Tina in charge…..she remember how Sam got up at night and come to her room and wake her up and say that she had, had a bad dream and that she was scared and Tina remember how she use to let her come sleep in her bed with her, she remember that Sam would cuddled up to her….A smile came across Tina’s face as she remember it.

Tina : “Ok come on I think you should go to bed”

Sam : “Ummm, it’s still early”

Tina : “Yeah well I think we could all do with an early night…don’t you?” Sam nodded

Tina got up and walked to their bedroom, Sam followed.

Amanda was still awake, she was laying in bed reading, she looked up when Sam and Tina walked in.

Amanda : “Tina” she said looking quite shocked to see her… “Hmmm, I didn’t think you would be back tonight”

Tina : “Well obviously you were wrong” she helped Sam into bed…

Sam : “Thanks” she said just before she fell fast asleep. Tina walked back to the bedroom back and opened it.

Amanda : “Your not coming to bed?”

Tina : “Not yet…later” she left the room closing the door behind.

IN JENNY’S ROOM…

Jenny was sat on her bed writing on her laptop when a knock came upon her door….

Jenny : “Come in” she called softly, the door opened and Tina came in.

Tina : “Hey Jenny”

Jenny : “Oh, Tina Hi…what’s up?”

Tina : “Nothing just wanted to see if you were ok?”

Jenny : “Oh yeah I’m fine thank you for asking”

Tina hesitaed then said : “Jenny don’t listen to Tonya ok….she just a *****”

Jenny : “Yeah I know”

Tina : “We do care about you Jenny, More then we do Tonya I can tell you that for sure”

Jenny : “Thanks Tina”

Tina : “That’s ok…..right then I’ll leave you to it”

Jenny : “Goodnight”

Tina smiled “Goodnight Jenny” she left the room.

Tina stood outside the door wondering what to do next…’Find Bette’ is all that was going through her mind, so that’s what she decided to do.

First of all she went to check if she was in her room, she wasn’t only Kit was there fast asleep…she then went to the top deck and looked high and low for Bette, but nothing, the only person she came across on the top deck was Tonya…she decided not to go and talk to her, she wanted to find Bette to badly…
She went looking through some of the ships and bars and clubs…after an hour or so of looking she finally saw her sitting at the bar…Tina took a deep breath and slowly walked up behind her….she lifted her hand to past it on Bette’s shoulder, she hesitated, then after a moment or so she past it down on Bette’s shoulder….Bette jumped a little and turned and looked shocked when she saw Tina there smiling……………..
