Situations
Watching You Sleep
Bette rolled over as she heard the front door click shut. She sighed as she got out of bed once again, first the noise from the party, then the police car sirens, now Jodi coming home at some ungodly hour.
She plodded across the bedroom carpet, thankful that she had taken refuge in her favourite white pyjamas.
Her feet met the coolness of the wooden floor after the warmth of the cream wool of the bedroom carpet, her toes curled slightly as they adjusted to the temperature.
She began muttering as she walked slowly towards the kitchen, “Jesus that party was a night sucker from fucking hell.”
She ran her hand through her hair and sighed once again, wondering whether today was ever going to end after the disaster that had been Jenny’s party. She really could do with going to sleep and waking on a fresh day and putting the last few behind her.
“So, did that woman ever let you go?” Bette said as Jodi turned with a glass of water.
Jodi was taken aback by the words, “Um…, I had a great time…, uh…,Tina got really drunk…”
Bette furrowed her brow as she heard the words and watched Jodi walk towards the lounge with the glass of water.
She turned to see Tina laying across the sofa sleeping, her arm outstretched, she slowly walked forward as her mind raced…, she looked on at Tina, noticing her long bare legs bent and curled beneath her, her blonde hair fanned across the cushions.
Tina getting blind drunk…, she seemed okay when they had spoken outside of the house, she had seemed more than lucid which could only mean that maybe their conversation was what had spurred on an increase in her alcohol consumption.
Bette had lain in bed and was sure she could hear Tina’s voice when the splashes occurred, wondering whether she was swimming in the pool that used to be theirs.
She watched Jodi move Tina’s handbag and shoes to the floor, she shook the blanket out and carefully covered the sleeping figure that was the woman who she had passionately kissed only days before.

Wow, ya know I said to Ness that it was going to be VERY uncomfortable for Bette to be in the bedroom with Jodi, while Tina was laying on the sofa in the other room. This was very well written, and captured just what was going through Bette’s head the whole time she took in the beautiful sight before her. I’m on the phone with B at the moment, and telling her “Jo posted!” She wants to know what you posted. I told her to get her arse on the site and see for herself. LOL!!! Good job mate. Next?
oh, you’re bad….SO bad! ;) and damn, i was hoping to be first posting a story based on this little scene, meh
LMAOOOOOOOO!….. I surely didn’t expect that! I’m sure nobody will expect that as a matter of fact. I saw the title and thought “Well, for once, it’s gonna be a dramatic Situations, there is no way she could turn such an intense & beautiful moment into some joke…!” But she DID!!!! I should be shocked… But I’m so not! I love it! Thanks for easing a bit of this tension we’ve been hanging on since 504. That’s a great Sit’… But on the foreshadowing front, is your little joke in any way referring to another joke of the sort between another famous couple we thought forever lost to each other, but miraculously found their way toward one another in the end??? A little trick that one happened to play on the other on a plane to Las vegas if I remember correctly… If it was intended, well thought and done! If not, I’ll just take that as sign… ;)
tough position for bette, would love to see the next morning when they all wake up!
No pirates or ninjas, but I still highly approve.
fantastic post…although I thought bette had said something like “That party was like the 9th circle from hell” (dante’s inferno)Anyways, the ending of the story was hilarious and a great way to finish such a serious event in the current storyline.
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! I’m glad you turned that into something silly because that scene was so sad.
That was funny. I was just thinking that on a scale from 1-10 on akward moments you prefer to never have to experience this was certainly a 10. 10 being heart wrenching, confusing, unsettling and extremely painful.
LOL! That was great! I’m sure Tina won’t think so in the morning when she wakes up with a hangover.
ROFLMAO!!! i love the ending!!
Hahahahaha…I was expecting such a serious, heartfelt piece from you about what Bette was thinking….and then that!!!! Still laughing…..
The gay brownies were in the mixBeautiful legs when she was trying to get her phone our of her car. Was Bette angry when she called 911? Was that Jodie was still there or that she had told Tina that she was in love with Jodie and Tina was having such a good time????? thanks
LOL, Friken hilarious. You got us good.
Hehehe:> I thought this is a sequel to your highly evocative “While You Were Sleeping.” Thanks for injecting levity to an otherwise heartbreaking scene.:< Btw, did you email "Those Adoring Eyes" to Laurel? If you did, how did she react? Thanks for this post, JoBadge, and may you never run out of great B&T stories to pull out from the pockets of your well-worn Levi's. :>
It’s going to get uncomfortable with Jodi the longer Bette stays in denial. Plus Tina may not wait forever for Bette to pull her head out. However your comic bit at the end was hilarious!
LMAO!! No one else could have turned that scene into a comical moment better than you!!
Jo, you are so bad!!!!!!!1. I just knew this would be a serious one all the way through, then POW, right in the kisser. But what will they all think and feel the next morning. Jodi for rescuing her and bringing her in the house. Bette for doing what she did and not what she wanted to do and Tina for aa’what the Hell happened to me, Oh my aching head and when she sees her face. Bette why the hell did you do that to me? Next week, will either be serious and sad as hell or just the hottest thing we’ve seen in a long time. Youo’re still very bad Jo. I nearly fell off the chair laughing. Please continue this one for the next day, PLEASE? PPS
Hahaha. That ending was… absolutely genial! Too darn funny for us! Thanks Jo. You made us laugh real hard. Sincerely, Lucero & Marsha – Your loyal fans from Mexico City
Oh that was ao cruel! But it is a “Situations” so I should have known better. You truly have an amazing mind! As asked by Mightymouse, did you get any feedback on Those Adoring Eyes? Also, did my eyes deceive me or did I see the word arse used by none other than Chicki? Made me chuckle!
Jo you are one naughty chick, please tell me she didn’t use a sharppie. Md
Loved this …Brillient ending..I think we may need more of this???
Jo, that was funny and mean at the same time. Tina is going to be in bad shape in the morning and then to take one look at her face she will be horrified. Hopefully Tina will not want to kill Bette when she realizes who drew on her face.
Excellent Jo! Love your take on it all and hope Bette follows through on the simplicity of the situation. I’d love to see T’s face when she looks in the mirror in the morning! Thanks Jo! You’re the best!
Hi Jo, Tempting, brilliant and hysterial. The scene played out terrifically as Bette was caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Her attraction to Tina is evident in every pore while her angst at betraying Jodi underlies this. Then your finale brought tears of joy to my face. Sides are split. Thank you so much for adding this light touch to a most emotive moment. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
LMFAO!!!!!! You are sick woman….sick!!! xx
HAHAHA that was funny and great!
