Mom thought we should go out for ice cream for dessert.
That works for me. Since we’re home, and not in
Of course, the bad side of that is that mom and Porter are walking slowly next to each other. They’re all chatty and stuff.
Hello. Your child. I’m here, too.
Whatever. “I’m going ahead,” I shout back at mom. She gives me a wave before I tear off.
Geez they walk slow. Feels good to be jogging, at least, rather than stuck with the old folks.
Too bad Aunt Shane didn’t join us for family dinner. She’s family, right?
As I entered the ice cream store I remembered a very vital factoid. I had no money. Not on me, anyway. I’ve got a little stashed at home, of course, just in case. But who knew I’d be famished from racing ahead and stuff.
I turned to get out of there, wait for Mom outside, when I heard it.
“Jess?”
Wouldn’t you know, he’d be here. When I turned around, he was standing kind of nearby. “Hey, Luis.”
“Hey. Haven’t seen you around much.”
Because maybe I was avoiding you or something? “I was on restriction.”
“Oh.”
Okay, I have to admit it, the boy is cute.
“Because of
Cute, but he’s a little behind the times.
“Just some stuff that happened later.” And I can assure you, you really do not want to hear about it.
I started backing towards the door. “I’m going to wait outside for my mom. She’s got all the cash.”
He took a step closer. “I can treat you.”
Yeah, he can be really nice. Even to me. “Um, you don’t have to do that. She’s following behind me.”
“Okay.” He looked down.
“Um, you can wait with me.”
That perked him up. “Okay.”
I went outside and sat on the picnic table that’s outside the shop. Luis sat next to me. Kinda close, but maybe that’s okay.
“Ready for finals?”

I must not have been in my right mind to take away your bon-bons! Bon bons! More bon bons! Bon bons for Pseud.
Thanks for sharing the few moments you have to spare to provide this wonderful chapter; Jess is all confused with her moms. I like Jess comment why parents don’t do what she wants. Hee.
Please come and play with us when you’re not watching reality TV and it’s ok to eat bon bons and type, right????? I’ll send you a new keyboard…..
A page and a half? I´m going mad…
We cry, Pseud gives us.
Now i believe in mercy!
Was she talking about Bette,Ilook like my Mom or Tina. Jess is just like most of the teen agers I know. sweetmhateful sweet,spitful and you love the to pieces and then would like a new hole in hell with them. The Porter charm will get her and when it does. Whoa.will she know what hit her. Wait until her friends met Bette. thanks
Could Luis be the one to make Jess see some sense with Bette
you know i love this story… but i want to smack jees at times… but i think someone should have introduced bette… i think tina was waiting for jess too.. ok bring it on… maybe i’ll through a few bob-bon’s your way
I’m glad that Luis turned out to be cool. Continues to be an excellent tale!
I luv Jess – The stereotypical rebellion teen…that chik gotz bad taste..she can be such a bitch..but kids dun like the parentals dating so it’s all good…I love the way u write..Great chapter..Swt stry..thnx 4 writing, dun stop..Please mst Post so0N..
I don’t know how you morph into the body of a awkward teenage girl, but you do it and you do it well.
“so maybe my last installment was intended to be a little provacative” … well aren’t you just the mistress of understatement. P – it’s hard for me to put my total trust in the person that wrote a little tale called “Third”. But admittedly I am intrigued as to how you plan on winding down this crooked road. I read when you post…whenever that happens.
I almost took you off my Christmas list after that last chapter. Of course you are back on now. Jesse needs a distraction for Bette’s sake. Of course now I’m wondering how we end up at chapter 85.
Again, you capture the essence of the teen years. The need to not be seen with your parents (her animosity towards Bette, notwithstanding), the act before you think syndrome and the push/pull of attraction.
Luis is not just a boy, or slow…he’s sincere. If Jess can just listen to him, she might just see his objectivity and learn something about Tina, Bette and her relationship to them.
Enjoyed the sweet stroll of B&T. Liked the casual way that Bette introduced herself to Jess without making an issue out of it for Jess and definitely loved the Normal Rockwellesque picture of ice cream with the family. Very cute.
Can’t wait to see how you get them from here to chapter 85.
hey maybe luis can get thorugh jess?!
Aw, Luis is cute.
“She held out her hand and everything, treating Luis like he was a real person or something.” …haha…that’s great
Oh, the anticipation of what the hell happened to cause so much drama in the previous chapter…torture!!!
Good chapter!
Old folks? Poor parents, haha. Luis is really cute. I hope he won’t lose Jess just because of these careless-but-so-true comments. Fingers cross… =D
Woo Hoo! First…I hope otherwise I look really stupid right now.
Okay I just started reading this and I have to say that Jess is one of my favourite incarnations of what Bette and Tina’s kid would turn out like. Okay, just wanted to say that. I’m gonna get back to reading so I can catch up to where you actually are!
I love the way you write by the way.
you know i love ya p. but im still so unsettled *channeling greentea* from your last post. *shaking finger* (no not that one) at you. you best be fixing that litle chappy damn quick. ;) really love this one. so how the hell do we go from here to hell?????
keep em coming and be gentle with our hearts honey.
ok that sweet chapter did not made i forgot what i read yesterday….the damage was done to my poor heart :o( and now that i started to think Jess have a heart…im a little confuse with this “I know, I look like my mom.” is she talking about Bette?…cant wait for next chapter
Thanks for posting so soon, this story is so much fun and Jess cracks me up every time!
sweet pseud. love jess. great to see B&T havin fun
i just read all of ur 74 chapters, i have 2 say i love this story, man that jess is a handfull, but i can understand that she fears that she might lose her mom because of Porter, i love ur story and i just hope that jess can finally just get along with bette and not pretend and tina not 2 get worried about being left out because everyone knows that jess loves her and she is the birth mother and the person who cared 4 her 4 the first 15 years of her life, and everybody knows that nobody can replace the love and the special mother/daughter bond, i’m just glad that bette is becoming a part of the family, there is nothing more satisfying that seeing porter get her family back. Thanx 4 the wonderful story your new fan rain.
LOL, ditto to coops comments, btw
“After all, what would my life be without reality tv and bon bons?”
Hmm… dessert… bribe the author… there’s an idea…
I can’t offer reality tv… but would you settle for some virtual bon bons?
(*Actually, this place is real, and their molasses sponge candy is to die for ;-)

sweet
First of all thank you for taking those few spare moments that you had and giving us as usual another fantastic update on this story. I’m sure we all didn’t mean to get so pissy about the last update, or maybe we did. This has always been such a feel good story, even with its bumps along the way, that one can only hope you keep the three of them headed in that direction and that that last update goes bye bye. Glad Luis was kinda cool with Jess this time and with Tina and Bette. Update when you can cos you know will be looking for you.
ha Jess…great post like always!
Still smiling!!
The story is great pseud. But G2104 you cracked me up!!!
