A helping hand and a push in the right direction-CH. 14
Wednesday afternoon
Bette and Eli made some quick sandwiches and decided to eat outside.
Bette: "Is the sandwich okay."
Eli: "Yeah it’s good. So we’ve been talking a lot about me and not enough about you."
Bette: "I though T told you about me." Bette didn’t hear a reply so she looked up from her sandwich. She saw an amused questioning look from Eli.
Eli: "’T’?" Bette was a little embarrassed.
Bette: "Yeah I guess she never told you that was my nickname for her."
Eli: "No she didn’t, she told me the basics. You know how you meet, how long you were together, that you meant a lot to each other. She said you worked at the California Arts Center but when I looked you up on the internet they said that you were no longer working there and that you started your own gallery. They gave the address of your gallery, I was going to visit you there for our first meeting."
Bette: "Wow you really did do your homework. Okay I left the CAC a couple months after your mom left for New York. I really hated that job, too much business and not enough interaction with the artists. So with the help of a friend who managed to secure me with a very generous severance package I was able to open the Porter Gallery in San Francisco."
Eli: "Then what’s the address I found, it’s not a gallery?"
Bette: "Yes I’m opening a second gallery in LA, but it’s still under construction. It should be opening in a little over a month."
Eli: "Is it also going to be called the Porter Gallery?"
Bette: "I haven’t decided. I have it listed as Porter Gallery, but it’s not a permanent name. Do you have any ideas what I could name it?"
Eli: "You want my help naming your gallery."
Bette: "I’d love some help?"
Eli: "I don’t know, you should name your gallery something special."
Bette: "You’re right, but I’m open to suggestions."
Eli: "Okay. I’ll let you know if I come up with something."

Ditto to azmama comment. The progression is so great that you would think that Bette has been a mom for more than five days. Now, it’s time for TINA!!!
i got so hungry while reading it that i tried to cook, but nothing came as good…can you send Eli or Tina to my place please so i can have a cooking partner? actually, now Bette can do it too…i’ll take all three of them, thank you :)
At least B&TF TRIED to cook after reading this. I don’t feel like burning down my kitchen when I get home. Man now I’m starving. That lasagna sounded pretty good. I usually let mine go to waste because it has a lot of meat and anymore I can’t stand to eat it much. I even like my burgers to be thin.
Lament…LMAO….It’s illegal to have thin burgers. They’re supposed to be thick. juicy, succulent unless of course, you’re an herbivore?
after this chapter i am starving! ALice was so funny but i think if i was there i did the same! i want so much to Tina appear!
I would like Bette, Tina and Eli to come over and help me cook. Eli and I could cook and Bette and Tina could well I won’t go there. Eli is a special child and with a loving mother like Tina there is no possible way that he could not love Bette. I can’t wait to have Tina Time.
Nice chapter! and made me hungry :P
I just caught back up with this story. I have to say its as good as is was in the begining. I can only hope you update one more time today, and I’m am so excited about Bette and Tina seeing each other again.
That was sweet, but please bring Tina out soon…..I miss her :o))
Grreat chapter. i can’t wait until tina gets there as well, i like the bit where bette will do anything to stay near eli.thank you
loving this story-can’t wait for tina to arrive on scene
I love this story…I am so glad to see Bette and Eli bonding. I can’t wait for Tina to come to town. Thanks for posting.
I agree with azmama and everyone else, this was a great chapter and it is a great story. So warm and loving. Bring on the “T.” Can hardly wait to see the reaction from her and Bette when they see each other. Since they are going to the beach the next day, is it possible that Tina and the dog will be there? I certainly hope so. Wonderful story. No drama please, just fund and loving all around.
Wonderful, wonderful! I was hoping that Tina would pop up, but you said up front that that wouldn’t happen–bummer…. Great story, love the progression, all the stuff that’s been said!
This story is so damn cute..I can’t wait for Tina to get to LA
One again you have been writing with so much depth about Eli. Wonder if Eli could be a force to bring Bette and Tina back together in the real show. He is a little soul that has came alive in this story telling. Please continue to write this story. Eli is a strong force that will (I predict) bring Tina and Bette back together in this story and he want allow them to be unreal with eachother. My words for this story is Great, Great, Great.
I love this story. Its one of my favorites on this forum.
Can’t wait for Tina to get to LA. Eli is such a brilliant young boy. Tina should be so proud of herself. for the love and time she spend with him to make such a wonder person. thanks
I’m with everyone else, can’t wait for Tina to show up.
Good chapter. Glad they all having fun and like the way Bette and Eli have. Cant wait to see Tina show up, post soon please, thanks!
I just love the progression of this story. It’s so natural and loving. I want Tina to appear on the scene. LOL
