One Day Soon – Part 6
Bette’s House, West Hollywood, 2007
Mmn. Bette’s living room heats up like a sauna in the sunshine, I’d forgotten that. It soon comes flooding back as the warm rays hit my calves, which are peeking out from beneath the blanket I threw around myself just a few hours ago. My head aches and it feels way too soon for it to be morning yet. I smile, remembering why I feel so renewed despite the taste of too many margaritas on my tongue, she’s coming home, alone.
Angie. Shit, Kit will be wondering where I am. Kate too, I’m already late for our meeting with Jenny. Before I can stop myself I’m grinning again, Kate left the club before me, perhaps I can convince her that I hooked up and so kill two birds with one stone; explain my tardiness and get her to quit trying so hard to help me ‘get over Bette’. Getting over her is the last thing I want.
Coffee. I forgot how Bette takes her morning coffee, thick and black and rather alarming, she likes to wake up to the world with a jolt. It used to be such fun, living like that, when the sight of her standing before me in the morning offering me a sample of her rich dark treat would make me instantly forget how tired I was and how much my body ached. Nowadays I face my mornings with a health dose of trepidation, preferring to take my coffee with cream and sugar to sweeten my life.
She said she’d ring when it was done, I wonder if they’re crying.
I wash my face in her bathroom and the smell of my coffee mixes with the sweet aroma of her soap, jasmine and lavender, the scent of her body in the morning right after her shower. I run the soft towel across my skin, remembering how very wrong it is that I’m here and yet I know that if she saw me, standing here, she would laugh and tell me they were still my towels too.
As time’s gone on I’ve stopped noticing the little things that have changed around here, or they’ve become less obvious. I take a peek into Angie’s room, I come in here often but rarely on my own as she hasn’t slept in here that much lately, there’s just her toys and picture books and other things which Bette thinks will stimulate her mind. Just recently Bette puts her down in the crib that’s set up in her bedroom, it means that every time I came by to kiss my daughter goodnight we sat there together on the edge of the bed, on my side, with me wonder if that’s still the same.

I can’t wait for them to see each other. So many things left unsaid.. that they both obviously need to say. I love how much Tina wants Bette back in this one. Even though she pushed that aside to let her go. Not a fan of Jodi, at all, on the show but I like the approach that you used here where it isn’t that she fell short as a person its that Bette didn’t love her no matter how much she may have wanted to.. it makes for a nicer TiBette reunion. Have a Happy Easter!
I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed more.
sofa,thxs for the treat lady.p.s.
ditto coop.
Just get that beautiful lady home to her two beautiful girls. Bette needs to go see Kit. thanks
You really don’t have to be so disciplined. 2-3 pages would be fine. Better than fine. PPS. Enjoy your time w/the ‘rents.
This is good and can’t wait to see these 2 see each other again!
ohhhhhhhhhh this is lovely but can u hurry up the reunion????
Love Actually, is that the movie? LOVED the memory of the day B asked T to move in with her. Beautiful little touch. Of course, it was all fantastically detailed and lovely. Thanks, partner in crime!
I’m not surprised about the coffee from sbarro’s being crap, everything else they sell tastes absolutely rubbish. As for the rest of the chapter: I’m going to be completely lazy and just put a “What NY said”, minus the partner in BeLenic crime line. Great chapter, sofa, thanks. (and Happy Easter)
Am so liking this wonderful story. Can’t wait for when B meets up with T. Thanks.
So wonderful and at the same time heartbreaking. Thanks.
i’m doing a happy dance
Happy Easter to you and your family. I thought about coloring eggs but it is just me and the cat. I don’t think that she will be interested in finding them once there hidden. Things seem to be going in the right direction. I understand that there will be some bumps in the road but those bumps are made so much easier when someone is riding next to you.
the up and down emotions these two put us through, sometimes I’m just over it but then everytime I realize it’s tibette I’m reading about I just say fucki it I loooovvveeee them lol!
