“Wow, she’s surpassed herself this time. That’s a real low, even by her standards. Did she say she was telling you this because she cares about you?”

“Uh huh.”

“That’s a classic line of hers, trust me. I haven’t got bored of anyone I’ve dated. Often things haven’t worked out because there have been compatibility issues on both sides. And I’ve been dumped as often as I’ve done the dumping. The truth is that I’m a relationship-oriented type of person, so, if I see that things aren’t going to last, yes, I do think it’s better to move on than to let things degenerate into bickering and mutual antipathy. But it’s not because I’m running off after something new. God, she’s unbelievable.” Jack shook her head, as if trying to rid herself of thoughts of Marianne. I’d been sitting stiffly next to her, but now I allowed myself to collapse against her shoulder.

“I was starting to pick up on that,” I said. I fiddled with the hem of her shirt, wondering if I should ask one more question.

“Someone else was badmouthing you at the LGB thing too,” I said.

“Who?” I told her what the girl Laura had said about Christie. She paused to absorb the information.

“I’m sure you know that’s not true, since I was confiding in you about how things weren’t working with Christie before we ever go together.”

“Yeah, Laura didn’t mention that Christie put an ultimatum on you.”

“Of course she didn’t. Christie knew that was a shitty thing to do, so I’m absolutely sure she left it out of descriptions of what an asshole I was for breaking up with her.” Jack pulled her arm out from between us, and lifted it up and around my shoulder. Something in me unwound itself, and I felt protected.

“I did know it wasn’t true as well,” I murmured.

“But you’d just gone to the group to help you learn things about yourself, and instead, you heard bad things about the person you were dating, twice, in quick succession. You must’ve felt like shit. I’m so sorry you had to deal with that, Elise.” With her free hand, she stroked my hair. “I can’t believe those two. They should know better. They both go to group in an ‘assisting’ capacity, so they’ve got a responsibility not to harm new members of the group.” I lifted my mouth for a kiss, and she met it, her lips warm, and the breath from her nostrils sweet.

“I can’t stand the thought that these two snake-princesses could’ve messed things up between us. Do you trust me, Elise?” I looked into her eyes, black and sparkling.

“I do,” I said.

“Good. I’m crazy about you. Please don’t doubt that.” She kissed the top of my head.
