Love and Pride Chapter 45
It was Christmas Eve and Bette, Helena, Tina and Peggy had all gone into Boston. Helena and Peggy had talked about the party that evening and they agreed that part of the fun would be seeing how Bette reacted to seeing her lover in a posh frock and looking a million dollars.
At first Tina had been very reluctant but she was now fully looking forward to seeing how she looked out of her usual jeans and sweaters. For her some of the thrill was seeing the look in Bette’s eyes when she saw her for the first time.
She was nervous and excited at the same time – more than anything she did not want to do anything that would embarrass the wonderful people who had shown her so much kindness and understanding. It had crossed her mind that as long as she was with Bette these people would be her family and she wanted that –though not as much as she wanted to make her lover happy.
They were all sitting round having coffee in the café of an upmarket department store when Peggy spoke to Bette.
“I have decided to buy some shirts and ties for Melvin so would you come with me to the men’s department and help me – you know your father’s taste so well “
“Sure – what about Helena and Tina?”
Helena grinned at Tina
“She is going to help me pick out a trouser suit for tonight”
Bette looked briefly disappointed “ Oh – I was hoping to buy that for her”
“Well I am – Helena is following my instructions “
“Why can’t we all pick ties for dad and then pick something for Tina ? “
“Just because babe – its Christmas Eve – we don’t want to be here too late – its crowded already and its only 10 “ Tina stroked Bette’s forearm.
Peggy raised her eyebrows in amusement at Tina – the blonde certainly knew how to twist Bette around her little finger. The longer Tina spent in Boston the more convinced Peggy was that she was going to become a permanent member of the clan. And Peggy and Melvin had discussed a plan to help Tina fulfil her destiny to become a very good lawyer and have some autonomy and dignity as well.

Yay, Kit’s here! Great post as always… Bette has got to learn to rein it in, though. I’m guessing there will be good times had by B&T after the party… :)
That was a great chappy Ally! It was rather”fun”.I have a feeling the next one will be even better. You always seeem to bring out the best in your characters. I luv your optimism.pps
I trip no matter what type of shoe I wear, so I can understand Tina’s trepidation for wearing heels. So the Porter temper has flared for the first time… wonder what Tina’s got hidden back there that Bette hasn’t seen yet? Nice chapter, ally, cheers.
i think i saw tina in a dress like that in one of the promos. absolutely beautiful. thanks.
Kay… Im not Jo but ABC? LMAO! Good one!
Bette needs to control her temper. They will have fun with Kit there. Thanks Ally
I hate heels so I definitely would look at the stairs while walking.
Another great chapter mate! I’m not sure I deserve all your words though – its a two way thing, this friendship!! But thank so much, you support is unwavering. x
i can imagine how gorgeous looks Tina! definitly the Peabody and Portter love her so much. Bette need to make it for her behavior. Kit arrives this party will be so good
Come on Tina, what did you expect??? That Bette just would say ‘okay honey, go get naked in front of my sister’….I totally understand Bette and her reaction!!! Tina should know this side about Bette by now. Post soon :o))
Heels are evil and instruments of torture. I think it’s a goddamn shame they are equated with chic sophistication. But anyway. I’m glad everyone is coming to terms with each others’ faults. Not one of us is perfect, although some are extraordinary. Even they need understanding and forgiveness from time to time. Yeah, Kit should bring and interesting note to the mix. Can’t wait to see what she’s like.
Yay!… Kit’s here!!!… Hmm, I agree that Bette was out of line, but she knows it, and the great thing about fights between lovers is the make up… And the great thing about fights between lovers in one of Ally’s stories is the make up NC-17… Hopefully…? *cute little pout, not as cute as the Porter’s pout but still cute*… Pretty please? ;)
So bette had a lapse in jusgement and thought the worst of her sister but now she has come to her senses and realizes that Hels wouldnever hurt her. They are family and Bette should no better than to think Hels would still be making plays for Tina. Glad Peggy was there to talk some sense into Bette.
You’re still the bomb Ally. Thanks so much for this chapter.
Ally, Wise words for all the awards winners. You know exactly what it means to an author to recieve these honors so cheers to you. Now this latest installment of Love and Pride. It really rocked. I love the way that Helena helped Tina with her dress choices. Sweet to see that Helena is still attracted to Tina but would never make a play for her. Too much lover between sisters to tempt fate. Tina’s gentle nature showed through her embarrassment in having to ask for Helena’s help and their financial discussion. As for Bette losing her head and taking it out on Tina. It was a shameful thing to do which she immediately but thankfully Tina forgave and moved forward quickly. Sometimes love can be obsessive and therefore stifling and this is not what I want for these gals so Bette needs to chill out and trust her lover. Fab to see that Kit has arrived and now I want to read all about the par-tay. More please and make it real soon. Many thanks for this brilliant chapter and fantastic fiction. Your Loyal Fan.
Fantastic as always Look forward to the party PPS
You are still a winner in my books! thank you for your wonderful updates. Can’t wait for the next one. This chappy was fun to read. It’s only normal for young lovers to get jealous. In fact, I’m surprised Bette has been so “cool” so far.
Woohoo! Kit’s here! Great update Ally. Bette’s gotta control that temper a little, but can understand where its coming from.
That was awesome and let see more, thanks!
