Bianca couldn't hide the surprise at the sight of Sienna, the lawyer she had failed spectacularly to date, standing in the doorway of her hospital room. The woman peered around the door frame a look of concern on her face.

"I just got back and I wanted to make sure you were okay… I saw it on the news."

"I'm fine. I'm in good hands." said Bianca, waving her in with a welcoming smile. "So how was Thailand..?"

…

"…So you and Marissa got back together in the end then." said Sienna with a laugh, as Bianca gave her a recap on all she had missed.

"Yes we did." said Bianca with a happy smile. "She fell in love with me all over again!"

"I always knew my gaydar wasn't off, there was just too much bluster in her denial… and yours!"

"Yeah, I guess you were a sort of a rebound. Sorry."

Sienna swatted her arm.

"Well you more than made up for it!" she said grinning.

"I bet Louise is glad to have you back." said Bianca in a more serious tone.

"She is, and I want to thank you a million times over for the introduction."

"Well," said Bianca, "There are only so many lesbians in Pine Valley!"

"Don't I know it!" said Sienna, "And yet somehow we both manage to find ourselves super hot girlfriends."

"Just lucky I guess." said Bianca with mock casualness and then they both snorted with laughter.

Marissa chose that moment to enter the room and her eyes went wide at the sight of them giggling together.

…

The hypnosis experiment had left Marissa feeling very disheartened. There had been a lingering memory of a kiss, but that had faded just like her dreams. Dr Stanhope said they would persevere, that he just needed to find the catalyst that would trigger a breakthrough. The bridge to her memories was open but something was still blocking them from her conscious mind.

Marissa had decided it would be a good idea to update Bianca on her progress, or lack thereof. She walked into her girlfriend's hospital room to find her laughing with Sienna and something changed…

…It was as if the whole world turned on its axis as a wave of jealousy surged through Marissa. She could see them together in Krystal's, Sienna walking in to put her arm causally around Bianca's waist and kiss her cheeks and Bianca looked so beautiful, so sexy, in that purple top and tight black skirt. Marissa wanted to surge between them and pull them apart. How dare she touch Bianca, how dare she kiss her like that! Those were the arms that held her tight! Those where her cheeks, and her lips and her smile! The feeling startled her almost as much as the fear that followed it. She was jealous… so very very jealous!

…

"Get your hands off her." cried Marissa hurrying forward to pull Sienna away from the hospital bed. "She's mine."

Bianca reached out to grab Marissa's arm.

"Honey, are you okay?"

"She can't have you." said Marissa still glaring at Sienna.

"Honey… honey." said Bianca, pulling her round to look at her. "What do you think is happening?"

"She's kissing you!"

"No she isn't."

"She did kiss you… at Krystal's! She kissed your cheek… you… you were going on a date..!" Marissa's words slowed as realisation took hold.

Bianca's eyes went wide.

"How did you know that?"

"I… I remember." gasped Marissa.
