“Evening Dean Porter,” a security guard greeted them as they approached. “I just did my last check and no one’s here. It’s all yours.”
“Thanks Charlie,” Bette replied. She looked mischievously over her shoulder and nodded towards the clear glass doors. “Come on.”
Tina tilted her head as if to ask what was going on, but just followed her lead.
Bette pulled back the door and waved Tina inside. She’d been to this building numerous times, but had always turned right into the office wing. She didn’t even realize this part existed.
Once they stepped beyond the frosted glass partition, the room opened up, with vaulted ceilings and ornate woodwork in all directions. At the far end of the room, Tina spied the alabaster sarcophagus. Egyptian antiquities graced all four walls.
“I had no idea this was here,” Tina looked around in awe at their surroundings.
“I was hoping it would be a surprise,” Bette said smugly. “Other faculty members don’t even seem to know it’s here.”
“The art profs keep it to themselves?”
“If it’s not part of the travelling circus that is King Tut’s empire, no one seems to be terribly interested,” Bette replied.
“Who is it?” Tina nodded toward the sarcophagus.
“Hatshepsut was one of the lesser known queens of Egypt,” Bette replied. “She adorned herself in traditional male garb to ease the people into the idea of her rule over them.”
“And so the trend of women in business suits began,” Tina laughed. Her heels tapped across the marble floor as she walked. Bette walked at her side.
“Can I touch it?” Tina asked, indicating the finely carved alabaster.
“You can yes,” Bette replied. “But don’t tell anyone I said you could.”
Tina reached out to touch history. She felt a shiver go through her.
“There are no curses associated with her right?” Tina asked.
“No problems thus far,” Bette smiled. “It’s a permanent exhibit. The archaeologist who discovered the tomb was a cross-appointed faculty member in the art department. It gets replaced in five year cycles with an exhibit that’s presently in Egypt.”
Tina leaned away from her direct contact with the artifact.
“There’s a real sense of power that’s evoked by seeing the care with which she was buried,” Tina said.

what a sweet chapter and perfect date! so it is friday night yet? :)
Bored? Hardly! Alice may be a bit antsy, of course, but that just serves her right. Interesting to see how the next night progresses.
Ah, the good writers have their fans wanting more. So, more, more please.
wonderfully sweet date for Valentine’s day – I can’t wait for the next date.
I think the Tster’s got a few days between now and her second date. Time to pick up some other chick in the meantime. I mean, yeah, you’ll end up with Mama B eventually, but might as well play the field until you commit. Don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got a ring.
i hope you’re not talking about getting bored writing this story because i can’t imagine anyone being bored reading this…it was wonderful and sensual…thank you
Are you bored? Projecting? Personally, I check at least daily for an update to this story. I’m absolutely loving it. I hope we have get to read about many, many dates in the future. I like this slow burn thing they are doing the second time around. Can’t wait for a family scene though.. thats something I’d love to see on the show. Can’t wait for more.
That date was really sweet and light fun. I can’t wait to see what will happen when Alice begins to ask questions. Anyways, can’t wait for the next chapter…
The two of them “courting”…..it is just irresistible.
Great chapter. Looking forward to more.
Dawwww so cute. :)
Great first kiss. As much as I love Tibette hotness, I am glad they are going to talk and date first. Swimmie, I don’t always comment, but I faithfully read and sometimes reread every word you write. Thank you so much :)
im not bored. i just banged my head on my desk looking for the lost pages to this story. im sure im missing more. thx
Wow, Dean Porter’s set the bar pretty high. And Soap… the T-ster’d better spend those few days contemplating on the awesomeness that is Bette. the family time will be as awesome as this first date was. Thanks for posting jks, and I hope you’re not too busy to continue in the foreseeable future. Cheers
OK, loving this story as I do all your writing. But I keep waiting for the pre-school weekend they have to go on together. Hope its coming up! Maybe it won’t be a white lie after all.
Hey, JKS, now, you are not planning to give up on this story, right? We are sooo hooked! The pacing is just fine and through your writing we understand both women want to give their relationship a second chance and this time communicating with each other. The way you’ve been telling the story is what caught our eyes, since the very beginning. PPS. This is great material for us. Sincerely, Lucero & Marsha – From Mexico City
That was a really cool date! Loving this story JKS.
I love how they are taking their time to get to know one another again. It can’t be easy to keep their hands to themselves but they are doing a good job of it. Wonderful post, thank you.
A perfect end to a perfect first date! I love this story more every chapter. :)
Even though there was dessert after dinner-wink, wink, that was a great first(second time around) date. Like the ideal of the Family Dinner as the second date.
That was a good first date,hope to see many more for a short time, then the real thing thanks
Hey JKS, WOnderful, Wonderful, Wonderful. I adore the magic and romance you have infused this story with. Bette and Tina really are trying to rekindle their relationship. The past is a vivid reminder if how awful things can get between them but they have dealt with it and are now ready to move forward. The present is exceptional and the future full of wonder and promise. Please continue whenever you can. Thank you so much for strengthening my belief that True Love can survive and flourish when both parties are reacdy to give it their all. Your Loyal Fan.
what self control they both have,,,but i think Friday night, at home…it might not be so easy.
really getting into this…waiting anxiously but patiently for their progression to partners for all the world to see.thx
I just got home from working a overnight shift, and I was so happy to see this…now I can go to sleep with a smile on my face. Thank you.
Ahh, that was so romantic! Can’t wait for the second date, pps.
Thanks. I continue to enjoy this story and the frequency of posts.
