The L Wing chp 104
The L Wing – Chapter 104
Narration of Tina Kennard.
Alice and I talk for another 20 minutes – we have both calmed down so we manage to find some common ground. I warn her again that Bette will not tolerate the most mild of comment from her for a very long time. I also concede that Bette needs to get out and about more — she needs to reconnect with the electorate.
When we finish talking and my stomach starts rumbling again we head back to the dining room. As soon as I walk in I sense the atmosphere in the room is difficult.
Melvin and Lucy are missing – Shane is on what is probably her 8th coffee of the morning and Kit is doing the New York Times crossword. Only Bette is not obviously occupied – she looks instead to be quietly seething. Which will explain the silence – my beloved is not the easiest woman to calm down.
But I know how to do it – I wrap my arms around her neck and softly kiss her neck
“Guess who babe “
She takes my hand and pulls me around so she is looking into my eyes
“Are you okay ? “
“I am fine -Alice and I have cleared up a few misunderstandings. How are you sexy ? “
She smiles at the remark and touches my face
“Missed you “ she says very low so only I hear her
“Didn’t you get enough of me last night ? “ I reply equally quietly
“I can never get enough “
I kiss her again and sit beside her. Its only then does Bette fix her eyes on Alice who is sitting next to Shane and trying to look inconspicuous – she has no chance.
“Alice “
Bette speaks in her most serious tone.
“If you had said to either of us what you did when we were all at work you would have been fired by now. I do not expect you to respect Tina because she is my partner AT THE MOMENT. But I do expect you to respect her as another member of the Senior Staff. And in two weeks you will also respect her as the First Lady with all the dignity that position brings. You have gone beyond the final chance saloon Alice and you know it. As from Monday’s Senior Staff meeting I expect every one of you to treat me with respect that my job demands – you all need to remember that seal on the carpet. You will also change your attitude to Tina. And that is not a request Alice — that is an order and it is also the only way that you are going to keep your job . Am I speaking clearly enough for you ? “

WOW!!! Just Great. Bette needs to slow down and listen to Tina. Thank you
Lamentamini I will have some elven ears for you, just can I be by your site plaese………?!(LOL) Hmmm, maybe Alice should be on Tina´s team?
hia back…Cliffy queen..just want your mates if we need to get a popcorn for a ringside boxing ticket bet. tina and her mom..i like the way you mix up all the emotions this two are going through. The thing is A! at the end of the day, waht matters most is that they know what their priorites are, their love and commitment for each other.
I have followed your entire story and I loved so many chapters and I don’t know why, but this is one of my favorites to date! Ally, as a writer you are so creative! Wow! I so loved Bette’s response- so protective, so natural, so romantic- its exactly what she should have said! 5 stars as always! Thanks for posting!
Ally you did it again, excellent writing, great story development, YES, let Tina concentrate on being first lady with her own staff and first mommy, love them to have kiddlywinks in the white house, such a crowd pleaser too!!!!PPS
Ally I am in awe of your talent! I just love this story. And I agree – this has been an extra long week! I just caught up with the last few chapters of The L Wing, and I have to say that you definitely have a gift. Thank you so much for sharing it so generously. Alice is very lucky that she still has a job at this point. I probably would have fired her ass long ago. I really thought that Kit’s point of view on Alice was interesting, but it did not excuse Alice’s behavior. I just love Lucy but I feel so bad for her, Tina and Bette. I hope Tina can remain calm while she talks to Emma so that she can get everything said that she needs to say. I think Lucy is right about what Emma’s ‘real’ problem is…And it’s so sad because she is going to miss out on so much and cause so much pain for herself and her daughters and daughter(s)-in-law if she doesn’t get her homophobic head out of her ass. Did I say I love this story? Well I’m sayin’ it again! And I can’t wait for more Ally!
Hey yourself! Another great chapter and yes I do know why you like to tease us all with your cliffys, but I promise not to tell if you—well I will have to think on that one and get back to you. LOL!! Also, liked the way the POTUS put Alice in her place. Now Tina just needs to calm Bette down before she fires her whole staff. I agree with choch—you need to give us fair warning when B&T go to see Tina’s mom, because we will want to have our popcorn at the ready for that confrontation.
JUMP BETTE…..lmao…..damn…..thats exactly what i woulda done too……..ok…so whens the next chappy????
is tina still wants helena on her team? but she better calm bette down since it’s her own decision and not anyone else
great chapter again ally. I love the communication skills of both women. they compliment one another so well. I can’t wait for the conversation between Tina and her mom.
calm down bette and listen to tina first longer
Calm down there Bette…..thanks for the post Ally and I am with you TGIF
Ally-First i was completely on Alice’s side and totally understood where she was coming from w/ her beef against Tina. But now i can also see where Tina is coming from. I think Tina should resign. She is going to be first lady and have her own staff and agenda so it is a bit unrealistic for her to do that and be part of the president’s senior staff. i don’t think Bette really wants to get rid of Alice. They all could do a better job of separating work life from personal life. If Bette fires Alice I think she will also lose her as a friend and hat would be a shame and at some point would probaably cause some problems in Bette and Tina’s relationship. Now that Kit has given Tian the whole picture you would think Tina would be a bit more understanding of where Alice and Shane are coming from. For the past few years Alice ad Shane have been Bette’s everything and now they must feel somewhat dropped by the women they have been there for for so long. Please post soon b/c i can’t wait to see how this all plays out.
So what if Tina has her own staff…Alice will have to get over that. They care way too much about how she will react over something…let me go to work and try some mess like that…ya’ll would get tired of me because I would be spending all my time on-line because I would be jobless…well I would be on-line until the end of the month cause this dsl isn’t free…lol. Tina needs to calm Bette down and explain to her what she is planning to do.
Ally that was awesome. Tina can pick her own staff as long as Helena is not on it. Okay it is your story so you can put whoever you want on it. I would love to see more of Tina and Lucy’s dad. Maybe he can be on staff somewhere. Lamentamini I hope that the small Santa suit shows some knees and I wonder if her black bra will show.
Don’t stop there….please don’t stop there LOL. Post very very soon, I need to know what happens next!!!!
Okay, first things first: Thanks Ally for this chapter. Now… I read through the comments and there is something I don’t get here… We all understand where Shane and Alice are coming from with Bette and nobody will ever doubt their loyalty to her… But what on earth has Tina done wrong here? I’m with Kit in explaining (and maybe understanding) Alice’s frustration with the changes, but that’s all it is: life’s changes! It’s not Tina’s fault that her mother is a stupid cow, it’s not Tina’s fault that Bette is so much in love that she’d rather get back to her than go and drink beers with the gang, it’s not Tina’s fault that Bette’s being ‘soft’ in her decisions to preserve her. After all, Tina was the one who asked Bette to finish her mother off! What I’m saying is: I don’t understand why people (in your story and some readers) are so crossed with Tina. Oh yeah, she’s such a mean, cruel and manipulative bitch for making POTUS happier than she’s ever been, for wanting to give her a daughter and a family, for wanting to cut off all relations with her own mother, and finally for planning to get her re-elected! Yeah, such a f*** bitch! ..;) Okay, that being said, I love your B&T, I think you gave them different but great personalities making the story fascinating and… well just amazing! Thanks again Ally…
Good chapter. Yeah Bette calm down and listen to what Tina say and hope not do anything stupid. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Hey, i think i’m first! That’s a first… I just want to say I love Bette!!! Doesn’t think, just reacts “Alice is fired” That was so great!! Now T has to explain…
Yes, Tina needs to explain (I still don’t think Bette knows that Tina wants Helena on her team) and get Bette’s feelings on starting a family. Tina is sooooooo right, it takes a lot to come Bette down especially when she thinks that someone is attacking her babe :o)
Uh oh! Alice watchout! Great chapter Ally, but too short dont you think ^_^ Looking forward to Long and winding …
Do I hear ice cracking? Alice best tread lightly. But at least we (if not Bette) have a better idea of why she was going off like that. Are you going to arrange a little sexual healing for Alice and Dana?
I like how you delve into each character. I can’t wait to read Tina’s interaction with her mother.
betty is gonna go all donald trump on alice”u are fired” this was a preety intence chappy..love it
I just love the way you portray Bette in this story. She shoots from the hip! She needs to slow down and listen to Tina’s reasons for resigning. I think Helena would be good for Tina’s team, but I can’t wait to see how Bette will react to that. Great update!
I love how Tina manipulates Bette. She sets up the whole scenario about getting her own staff and working on the re-election of the President and then drops the other boot to say she wants Bette to support her resignation ! LOL. She is such a player! Post again soon. I can’t wait to read how Bette’s going to handle this.
Ooh it’s getting good!! I love this story! Post again soon!
“I’ll wear a skimpy sexy Santa suit for you on Christmas Eve ” …*thud* Could I be one of the elves? I’m nearly short enough for the job. I just need to find some elven ears.
