“Let’s go out,” Nickie sighed, when both she and Margene realized that they weren’t going to be able to attend.

“Ok where do you want to go?” Margie asked.

“There’s some Mexican restaurant in town that has really good food and alcohol,” Nickie replied.

They loaded up in Nickie’s car and headed for the little restaurant. They got a table and Nickie ordered them a few shots of tequila while they looked over the menu.

“I don’t think I should,” Margie told her, pushing the shot glass away.

“Yeah, you’re pregnant, I forgot, I’ll have them then if you don’t mind,” Nickie said, downing two of the shots.

“No, not at all,” Margene smiled softly.

She had never seen Nickie this wild or loose before. Her blonde hair that was usually pulled back into a harsh braid was now in loose waves falling down her shoulders. Nickie looked almost angelic. The waiter came and took their orders, leaving the two to munch on some chips and salsa. Nickie finished off the two shots she had ordered for Margene and smiled.

“I haven’t had a drink in a long time,” she said.

“I can tell, you go a little bit crazy with them,” Margie smiled softly.

“It’s been a rough, crazy year,” Nickie sighed, leaning her head against Margie’s shoulder.

Margie ran her fingers through the soft, silky, golden locks, keeping Nickie close.

“I know, Nic, I know.”

Margie motioned for the waiter to bring two more shots for Nickie. It probably wasn’t the best thing to get her drunk, but it made her more peaceful and easier to be around.

“Thanks,” Nickie grinned, downing the shots one by one.

“Take it easy there, partner,” Margie smiled, petting Nickie’s soft blonde hair as the older woman giggled into her shoulder.

Nickie was smiling and pleasant throughout their meal. That’s when the call came. Sarah told them that their polygamy lifestyle had been revealed. Nickie was a nervous, rambling mess all the way home. She was convinced the community was going to lead some sort of witch hunt.

“Nickie it will be ok, just take some deep breaths for me,” Margene told her, trying to keep calm herself.

Margie laid in her bed after settling Barb down, just staring at the ceiling. Her mind was off somewhere in the clouds, trying to get herself to sleep. The door creaked open and Nickie walked in, crawling into the bed next to Margie.

“I can’t sleep,” Nickie sniffled softly, wrapping her arms around the younger girl.

“You can stay with me,” Margie told her softly, cuddling Nickie close to her.

Nickie cried softly into her sister wife’s shoulder till she fell asleep.
