Bit by bit, she's coming back around.
Beth wouldn't say she's over the things that have happened, she knows she can't say she's no longer thinking about Curtis all the time when she knows she still is, but over the past few weeks or so, things have gotten a little bit easier every day until she finds herself reaching out to people she hasn't seen as often as she knows she would like to say she has. It isn't their fault, she knows it's hers, she'd pulled away from everyone a little in the weeks after Curtis had disappeared, but it's not in her nature to be so isolated and so she knows it's time to reach out again.
She's lucky her friends are understanding, lucky they know what it's like to lose someone and don't hold it against her.
Jenny agrees to meet her easily enough and Beth suggests one of the cozier coffee shops in the city, one with big comfy chairs and hot drinks that probably have enough sugar in them to last her a whole week. There's still a significant chill in the air and where Beth might normally suggest a walk in the park or doing something fun outdoors, she thinks this is a better idea for now. It gives them a chance to really talk.
She arrives before Jenny and finds them a spot in one of the back corners, claiming the small, two person couch for them before anyone else can get it, and then she settles in to wait.

They're both such good people and Beth may not know Cameron all that well, but she does know Jenny well and she honestly believes anyone Jenny chooses to love has to be someone worthwhile and someone worthy. A man who deserves the good fortune this place has given him. Everything else is just secondary, she's sure of it. They're lucky and they deserve it. The how will never matter.
"So what are you guys doin' to prepare?" she asks. "I guess you have to get a nursery ready for them. I know I've got a lot of stuff goin' on, but if you need any help, just let me know."
