Chapter 4

   Bette watched Tina as much as she could with out making it known to anyone. She was amazed how Tina took the extra time with her subject. She was not the kind of photographer to just point and snap the shot off she had to catch the raw character of her subject. By the look on Tina’s face Bette could tell that she loved doing it and that she took great pride in every picture that she took. Bette knew at that moment that that was the main reason that Tina Kennard was worldly famous, she had the passion for what she did. Bette told herself again that she needed to find Alice.

   Tina tried to watch Bette and do her job but it was a challenge for her to stay focused long enough to take pictures. She didn’t know why she was drawn to Bette Porter but what Tina did know was that every time she saw Bette her heart would skip a beat. Tina knew that she couldn’t get involved with Bette but she let her mind wonder what is would be like to make love to that woman that she was stalking with her eyes, it was hard for Tina but she knew that she must stop herself from having those kind of thoughts about Dean Porter, this was just another job for Tina.

   Bette finds Alice

Bette: Alice can I talk to you in private?

Alice: Sure Dean Porter.

  Bette and Alice walks out to the Roof

Alice: Okay Porter what’s going on?

Bette: Alice how well do you know Tina Kennard?

Alice: Oh Porter do you have yourself a little crush?

Bette: Come on Alice be serious for once.

Alice: Alright Bette I have known Tina for about 5 or so years and I would consider her a close friend. I met her when I did and interview with her.

Bette: If you have been friends that long why haven’t I ever met her seen her with you or why have I not ever heard you talk about her.

Alice: Bette you have heard me talk about her before but what you never knew was her last name, I never say her last name because the gang besides you are friends with her and they know who I am talking about and I don’t say her last name is because she is fucking famous and I don’t wont no one to ask me about her. Oh and by the way Porter Tina don’t really go out much with us because of the famous thing and that is why you have never seen her with me or anyone else from the gang, however she loves Kit’s little Planet, she is always there, no one messes with her there because Kit wont allow that shit, but Tina has not lived in New York the whole time I have known her, she has only lived back in the states for about two years, I think.
