Rock Lobster – Chapter 5
Tina spotted Bette waving from across the room as soon as she entered The Planet. They exchanged huge smiles as Tina walked to where Bette was seated. The café was buzzing with the usual Sunday crowd – families having lunch, friends catching up over coffee, yuppies pretending to be working on their laptops.
“Hey.” Bette stood up and greeted Tina as she reached the table. They took their seats as the waiter handed them their menus.
“So how have you been, Bette?” Tina asked while perusing the list of food choices in front of her.
“I’m doing great, actually.” Bette admitted. “We just got a call from a friend of JP’s who is interested in managing the band. We’re meeting with her tomorrow.”
“Wow. That’s great news!” Tina seemed genuinely happy for Bette.
“Yeah, We’re really thrilled to have this meeting with her. It will be nice to have someone to look after the band. It can get really stressful trying to do everything by ourselves.” Bette looked up from the menu. “So have you decided on what you’re going to have?”
They placed their orders and the waiter brought it out after several minutes while they continued to talk.
“So Tina, you haven’t told me what you did for a living. All this time I keep talking about the band and I’m afraid I don’t know too much about you.” Bette took a sip of water.
Tina’s face fell. She was planning on telling Bette about the article but she wasn’t expecting it to be so soon. “Oh, it’s no problem. I love hearing about the band.” She stalled.
“So what do you do for work?”
“I… umm… I’m a freelance writer.” Tina struggled in her seat.
“That’s nice. What do you write about?” Bette continued with her questioning.
“Oh you know… stuff. I review stuff…” Tina couldn’t look at Bette.
Bette was about to ask what kind of stuff she reviewed when she saw Alex enter the café.
“Oh fuck. What is she doing here?” Bette tried to hide behind Tina but was too late. Alex had already seen her.
“Who?” Tina turned her head to where Bette was looking and saw a tall brunette heading their way.

Tina is so sweet wanting to take care of Bette. She is right about Gabby, the girls better look over that contract very carefully and make sure there aren’t any hidden clauses. I can see giving them gifts after they sign, but beforehand makes me think she has some ulterior motives. Maybe she and Jenny are working together and that is why she is trying to diss Tina. The girls better keep an eye on both of them. PPS
Great update! Love your Alice, very funny. Can’t wait to see what is in store for our girls! PPS
I was worried about Gabby too and now her giving the girls those instruments makes me wonder if she’s really all that real. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW naked Flea is NOT an image I need just as I’m about to go to sleep. LOL And WTF, Bette? Trying to impress Tina by eating a ginormous burrito? lol PPS
Yup, Gabby’s over the top show biz BS has everybody suspicious. Except for the band of course. In fact, other than Tina, they seem surrounded by rather unsavory types: Gabby, Alex, and Jenny. Hopefully they won’t lose contact with their other, more real friends and that they’ll get good advice from them.
well i just read every chapter and this is good… i like this… its different… i don’t think she is done with alex… i have a bad feeling she will be back… and i hope they read the contract before signing… maybe bette will let tina go over it with her… and gabby buying them gifts … i hope they take it slow with her… now did gabby leave a note with the instruments… or did alice ASSUME gabby sent them… PPS
I love the story. I hope someone suggest they have that contract looked at by a lawyer. The gifts are already theirs to keep.
Glad that you didn’t draw out the Alex thing.. or the fact that Tina wrote the article. Gabby is a fast talker, gift giver.. I have a feeling she will be like the terrible manager that broke up the SBTB band Zack Attack. Or she will get them to sign a contract that isn’t in their favor. Hope for more B/T alone time in the next one. Thats what I’m really waiting for.. PPS.
That last comment was funny about Flea playing his bass naked. I remember that situation with the Chilli Peppers posing naked. I love this story and am excited that Tina and Bette have made it past the first hurdle.
I’m not overly trusting of Gabby, maybe Tina can use her resources and check her out. B&T are just too cute. Great job making Jenny as annoying as she is in the show.
