Chapter 45 – Connecting on Many Levels
Bette was on her way into the CAC when her cell rang. Looking at the caller ID she quickly sees that it is Tina. Smiling Bette quickly answers Hey are things getting any better for you today? Bette asks as she answers.
Hey Bette I was calling to ask a favor, would you mind being there for Anna tonight? Tina asks hoping that Bette would say yes.
Sure Tina I would love nothing more, whats going on? Bette says as a smile instantly hits her face at the thought of Anna and spending the evening with her.
Well Im going to be on TV tonight. I will be having a joint press conference with Reverend Pillary. Tina says as she hears the warmth in Bettes voice.
Really, well I know youll do great. Has it been rough today? Bette asks a little concerned for Tina.
Yes and No. I just wish I had had the time to get more acclimated before having to deal with a crisis but Jackie is amazing. I have learned so much in just one day already. There was a pause as both Bette and Tina had their own thoughts at this. Hey Bette while I have you on the phone could I ask you what you know about Reverend Pillary?
Bette laughs at Tinas request for information about the Reverend. You know the Reverend can be an all day conversation dont you? What kind of information are you looking for?
Well just anything that sticks out in your mind. I seem to remember that you have interacted with him in the past. Am I right? Tina is now asking as she has a hunch.
Yes you are correct. We have been on both the same and opposite sides of many issues. Most recently on opposite sides as a few issues concerning art which he felt defaced some religious icons. Bette confirms Tinas hunch. Reverend Pillary has always gone out of his way to be respectful of me and my opinions. He just has this honorable way about him, I found myself talking to him about thoughts that I probably never would have verbalized to anyone else. Weve had polite conversations concerning ***** issues too but he always was respectful to me which is why I find it so odd that Alice attacked him so.

Hey Jwet, welcome back. Great chapter. Love the pace of this story; wish it was one continuous novel but if it was I would probably read it in one day and there would be a definitive ending — so I guess I should be happy with the potential for a neverending story. After yesterday’s episode, I was glad to see you updated. I am looking forward to the date and Helena’s eventual demise.
Hello Jwet,
I am just back myself from a three day conference myself so apologies for no comments on the last chapter but have just caught up. Hope that all is well with you and yours, and back to normal.
What can I say…
Woo whoo! For one. Agree with everyone that your style is just so easy on the reader and flows with such majesty. You really do make it seem effortless, although I am sure that this is not the case. Looking forward to see how Bette overcomes her doubts. Will Shane help her realise what is straight it front of her? I do hope so? Can Tina get the foundation some good publicity after Alice’s (okay, editor’s) article? Will Alice give Dana a break about the visit to her Mom’s?
Today’s queriesf includes:
Will Dastardly and Muttley ever catch the pigeon? Will Helena be able to squirm her way outta this one? (like to reptile she is) Will Tina knock Shane oops upside her head for flirtin’ with Irene? Who will Anna say “Mama†to first?
Some may be answered and other not in the next chapter form your gal and mine, Jwet.
Can’t wait babes until tomorrow.
Your Loyal Fan
“Hey that’s a good idea but I’m afraid that if either you or I did it, well let’s just say we look much better in a tool belt than actually using one. Besides I just can’t imagine you with a hammer in your hand.†…lol, now that is such a HOT visual=P Finally, B&T are realizing that they’re equal…lovin’ it so much…Bette’s right, if she wants a stronger relationship with Tina, she has to take it slow and approach with caution…I think we can all agree that we don’t want to see her lose everything once again=) lol…no Alice in this one, she must be busy doing some reporter research & re-doing that horrible article of hers for Tina! LOVE IT!! Update soon please!
Hey Jwet yes I am healing well thank you. I just about have the use of my arm back so it’s good news. I love when you take then into a new growing friendship. Close encounters where the feel strongerly for one another but pull back. Having to silently deal with the overwelming feelings. It all builds up and at some point I know you will lead of home. Wahoooo…
HOPE YOUR TRIP WAS GOOD…WONDERFUL CHAPTER AS USUAL..HOPE HELENA GETS BUSTED..PLEASE POST SOON
I like the trust you have between Tina and Bette; and slowing getting them back as a couple to the framily.
As usual, great story.
And I agree, the finale did not suck but did not have as much as what I wanted. It was a let down.
Please continue to hold us till next season.
don’t fight it Bette, go with the flow
Thank you, good update. I love the dirt on Helena (great storyline).

Very nice. Glad to see Tina on top of everything (including the world, at the mo). Bette’s being more relaxed. Shane’s flirting w/Irene. All is as it should be.
I’m loving it, keep’em coming please :)
oohh… bring on the date nite babe!! LOL.. at this stage, i prefer fan fic WAY more than the real thing…
Welcome back. How was the trip? I too had a little running around so I had some ‘catch-up’ reading to do. Another great one. I’m glad that you continue to show Bette’s insecurities about messing up a second time. But having little Anna in her life is going to make it MUCH harder to keep loving Tina from a distance.
Well it good to have you back hope your trip went well. Nice update now it off to work for me have a good day
great chapter…and i underestand why Bette is so afraid…but i think those two will work things out in the right way i mean love always win in the and am i right?..and bring us the DATE..lol..
