The most recent wave of giggles has faded. (Post Bachelor Party - Pre CfJ)

[flame_bird]

"Oh man. That was awful of us." Bette doesn't look like she thought it was awful. She looks like she thought it was a laugh riot. "We're bad, bad people." Of course that nearly sets off another wave of the giggles as she looks over to her compatriot.

Pausing, she looks around and scruchnes up her face some. "Where the hell are we anyway?" They've wandered some from Warriors, not having had anywhere specific in mind to get to after leaving. "Ah who cares. We can worry about it later." A pause, "That was awesome. In a horrible way. I'm starving. Are you hungry? We should get some hashbrowns."

Near the coffee machine now sit a six-pack of beer and a loaded pizza.

"Oops... sorry, I thought you were... I mean..."

Then he sees the pizza and beer.

"... well, I've been an idiot all night. Why stop now?"

"Damn it, Jesse."

Bette sighs.

"I can't find her." She looks toward Wally.

[fleet-feet.livejournal.com]

He starts to look through the place.

She could really be anywhere.

She brought beer.

...

"Jesse?" he calls out, heading toward her bedroom.

Nope, not in the bedroom, but the balcony door's open.

Kinda cool outside. Jesse's there, so she didn't run far. Staring off at the twinkling lights of the city and the harbor beyond.

Bette notices the balcony door open and makes her way that direction. "Jesse?"

[fleet-feet.livejournal.com]

Wally steps out to the balcony as well.

Totally not sure what to say. If anything even needs to be said.

So he looks out to the city.

"Wow... you always have killer views."

[jessequick.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Jesse responds and then says the first thing that comes to mind.

"You two are done already?"

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bird_of_flame_/]

Bette looks at Jesse for a moment and she frowns, obviously hurt.

"Well, that was a bitchy thing to say."

She's not sure if she wants to leave or not but she turns to leave the balcony.

Wally just blinks.

"Right, then."

He just leans against the ledge. Looking at his feet.

[jessequick.livejournal.com]

Bette's response makes Jesse gape fish-like for a moment before she stammers, "No, no, that's not what I meant! I just...I...um...you guys..."

Sigh.

"Is this part of the weirdness we're supposed to get through?"

Bette pauses a few steps into the room.

She stands there for a few moments, her hands at the bottom of the sweater.

"I guess so. I didn't... I thought you... I..." After a moment, she puts her face into her hand.
