So, whats going to happen now ? I mean, are you and Bette going to get back together ?
Shane was flabbergasted. She had always considered Tina and Bette to be the perfect couple, the only steady thing in their group of friends ; the proof that somehow, love existed and didnt only consist in pain and sadness. How could they break up ?
Tina didnt know what to answer. Shane had put all of her inner questions and fears into words. The image of Bette, gently stroking Candaces arm kept replaying in her head. Her Bette, the one that had fought for her, taken her away from her previous routine, the one she had spent 7 years of her life with.

Shane got up and headed outside. She needed to breathe the early mornings scent in, fresh and damp. This was one big nightmare.
Funny, youre kind of a clich you know. Shane looked up and saw Sasha. She wanted to be angry at her but she was too exhausted and the girl simply always put her off.
Sasha had left the group after Tina had realted what had happened. She wanted to appear detached but in fact, she couldnt stand the sadness in the blondes eyes and voice. It was killing her legendary good mood. She was supposed to be partying, and not listne to sad stories she thought.
I mean, here you are, the lone wolf who only has one night stands but is, secretly, hoping to find, one day, the love of your life. Isnt it ironic ?
You mean, you dont believe in love ? Shane asked, her eyes staring at the darkness.
Ive seen passion, destruction, hate and lust but not the so called love. Its just desire. And desire, is meant to fade away.
You didnt see Tina and Bette. They were beautiful, they radiated love, it just poured from their skin and reached out to the people surrounding them. Love is what keeps me going. What about you ? Shane asked, sitting down and leaning against the frontdoor.
The concept of love is here to remind you, every day, that men are supposed to suffer on earth, that you cant be happy. I, for my part, prefer passion. It cant swallow you. And with that, Sasha headed back in. She didnt like where this conversaton was leading so she left Shane to her thoughts.


Jenny was in Marinas office, where the medics had discovered her, lying on top of Marinas body, kissing every inch of skin she could find. She didnt want to talk to the others, didnt want to answer their questions. She didnt have the energy to cry anymore. All she could do was stare at the ceiling, slumped on the couch where she and Marina had so often made love. Her hands were playing with the empty bottle of pills. It was the only thing she had left from Marina.


Tonya, please, stop ! Dana shouted, exasperated when Tonya reached out for her hand, for the fourth time that night. She didnt want Tonyas sweaty hand grapsing and sqeezing her fingers. She walked away, still carefully avoiding to walk in Alices direction, and came face to face with the girl. She smiled shyly, not knowing what to say.
Wait the girl got closer, their faces mere inches apart and Dana noticed her deep green eyes, reflecting her own. Youre Dana Fairbanks ? My God, I didnt recognise you
Dana smiled, flattered and relieved. This was an easy conversation, not affording too muc concentration. Shacould deal with that.
I totally loved your game against
Anna Kournikova, Dana interrupted I know. I enjoyed playing against her. She had herad such congratulations from fans so many times before. This game had been the only one she had won against a famous player highly ranked. And what an achievement she tought sarcastically : Kournikova hadnt had the time to recover from a knee injury and was exhausted.
Actually, I was talking about your game against H.G. I know you lost, but you tried so hard and played really amazingly well Sasha said, smiling at the stunned face in front of her.
Really ? You know youre the first one to tell me this ? Thats my favorite game to, though it hurt to lose. But people usually dont understand that. The girl positively surprised her and she decided she liked her. And for once, she was able to forget about Alice.
Excuse me, but whats your name again ? Ive never seen you here before
Im Sasha and Im new here. I just flew in from Europe. Then she questioned Dana about her career plans and her forthcoming games. She liked the woman with the goofy smile like a happy child. Dana found it easy to talk to her, maybe because she was a total stranger and it was likely to stay like that. She was happy to leave all the drama behind, even if it would be only for a short time.


Oh, you dont want to talk to me ! You prefer to chat with Shanes ***** ! FINE ! Alices thoughts were boiling in her head, threatening to make it explode. She was tired of comforting others : first Tina and then Jenny. Tired of pretending to be the strong one. Why didnt anybody see that she needed help too ? Of course there had been Shane who had sensed that something was wrong and ushered her to talk. But her friends sollicitude had upset Alice and she had been rude. Why do I have to be so contradictory ? she thought. Everybody was pretending that everything was ok, when it obviously wasnt : their respective worlds were falling apart and none of them wanted to face it.Im a coward she muttered to herself.


Guys, its 9 oClock came Kits tired voice. She had been dreaming of a certain dragking, singing for her, coming closer. Ivan had brought her head on the same level as hers, Kit was lost in those beautiful orbs contemplating her. And when their lips had been about to touch, Kit had woken up.
It took them all some time to process the news. Then, they started to gather their things in order to leave, walking like zombies.

Well, thats where our paths separate Sasha said to Dana. I have exams to sit for University she added, answering the quizzical look
Were often meeting here, at the Planet, so if you happen to be in the area, you could just drop by ? Dana siad, suddenly sad : she didnt want her to leave already. and good luck she added. Sasha left, she was already late. She took the bike she had left in front of the club where she had met Shane and started paddling like mad, trying to remember what exactly the exam was about. Was it an english test ? Literature ? Or maybe philosophy ? I guess Ill figure it out soon enough she muttered, grinning.
