The Performance of a Lifetime – Chapter 7
Previously
Left alone on the dance floor Bette let the confusion she felt come to the surface. She looked around and seeing the doors to the garden open she walked towards them and to the outside.
Tina and Shane watched from their table. The blonde’s glass was notoriously emptier than when she had started drinking it a couple of minutes ago.
Shane regarded Tina seriously.
“You know, I never thought Bette and Jodi were right for each other.” She dropped that almost casually and then got up to go talk to a redhead at another table leaving Tina alone with her thoughts.
Tina bit her bottom lip for a moment, then making up her mind she picked up two glasses and a bottle of wine from the table and went outside to find Bette.
Chapter 7
Tina found herself on a balcony a few feet above the garden. There was a sculptured stone balustrade all around the terrace except for the place where it dropped to follow the stairs down into the garden. The garden itself was a geometrical beauty of concentric circles and perpendicular lines. Well tended bushes made the walls for pathways that led you either deeper into the garden or to circle it. Right at the heart of the garden there was a bronze fountain, a sculpture of ferocious mythological figures forever condemned to throw a continuous stream of water through their mouths. On the earth path that circled it there were a few wooden garden benches.
It didn’t take long for Tina to see Bette, a lonely figure highlighted in the clear moonlight, sitting with her back turned to the dining room.
Taking a deep breath the blonde made her way carefully down the stairs and walked over to meet the brunette.
Bette heard the approaching steps and she steeled herself for a confrontation. She turned her head ready to let the newcomer have a piece of her mind only to see that it was Tina walking towards her. Her eyes softened while her muscles instinctively relaxed and the tirade that she had prepared in her mind vanished without a trace.
“Hey.” Tina said nervously when she reached the brunette.
“Hi.” Bette retorted gently.

I’m really loving this story, thanks for the updates :)
it’s been a while since I waited for updates of a story like I wait for yours! thanks and hope you keep it coming!
Oh I hope you will find time to post again soon, I am so hooked. Well written and just a really great setting for a romance all together. PPS:-)
Wonderfully done, sabina, thanks
Probably my favorite chapter thus far.. we got to see Bette start feeling things for Tina, admitting her relationship with Jodi wasn’t that great, and there was no Jodi in it at all.
Bravo. I love the hint of lust between them and the beginnings of what will be I’m sure, TRUE LOVE.
ok, they’ve each realized this act may not be such an act after all….now i think the next night needs to bring a steamy dream for one of them & they call out the other’s name, then B or T will know that they’re both feeling it & will have the courage to make a move!? I understand your dilemma on replies, i’m in the same boat – i readily take a new chapter over a reply ;) ….Thx & PPS!!
at least in their sleep they know their bodies want each other… love this story and i can’t wait till their AWAKE bodies make the move… PPS
Great story. so much warmth and care in your stories:) PPS
yes i’m one of the silent readers coming out to say…..I love this story! I’m loving the anticipation…a lot of stories rush into BnT getting together….i like the slow build up. Please post again soon.
I kept waiting for Bette to trip on a shoe or something and land on top of Tina in the bed. XD Luckily they stopped being so shy before one of them rolled out of bed in their sleep.
Great chapter. I like to see Tina so attentive to Bette’s emotions especially concerning the hurt Jodi seems to cause. You can definitely feel the tension building between these two. You’ve got a great story going here. Please post soon.
God, you like to tease, don’t you? Will my lovely couple get to dance soon? Love your writing, pps.
I’m so happy when I see your post! Love this story and love the way you write.
I had been waiting for this chapter all day. I love this story and you for writing it. Way to build the sexual tension – i was holding my breath the last few pages.
Really do like this story and can hardly wait for the next chapter. Hopefully there will be an opportunity for them to dance slowly together. They need a reason to have their arms around each other consciously and feel what happens to them then and accept it. Have a great weekend.PPS
Love this,The two ladies will be track all day with the eyes of Jodie. Hope they put on a show for her. She{jodie will go crazy} she is so jealouse of Bette. She is the one that put Bette through He&&. Let them dance, wow/ thanks
I am loving your story. Can’t wait for more. PPS.
I could feel the intense attraction between them. You did a very good job.
I love this story. You so perfectly describe their bumbling around when it was time to go to bed with romantic humour. Keep up the good work, I can’t wait for your next update!
omg. YAY. I’ve been at work for over 12 hours and I have an insanely long subway ride home. I’m printing this out to read on the way. You’re the best for posting a long update just when I needed a treat!
Love love LOVE this story!
awesome update!! love how they just reached for the other in their sleep, means only one thing to me! :) PPS
love the story! please post soon.
You’re a cookie tease? A COOKIE TEASE? Realllly? Patiently waiting for my cookies, reading updates only to find the cookies were a ruse? Seriously, I love this story. You’re writing is superb! You have captured this developing relationship of Bette and Tina perfectly. The whole sleeping situation is just hilarious! PPS!
so delicious, slow and steady wins the race. Your writing is wonderful and your b&t so sensuous. PPS
Love it, love it , love it!
I totally know that feeling when your are affraid to move when sharing a bed…glad Tina basically said whatever let’s get over it and be comfortable. I think one of them or both of them need to have a steamy dream about each other and have them scream their name in their sleep only to wake the other person up and now they know their not the only one having feelings. ..but I think they will still need to find the courage to admit it:) PPS I am so addicted to this story!
i love this story! the anticipation is killing me. lol!! pps
SO….they are both into each other…what next! and yes, keep Alice quiet…plz…they’re both a bit skittish, could take fright and run..PPS
oh my please post soon, great story
One of these days I am actually going to be reading faster and not fall so far behind. This is an intriquing story. Everybody else including jodi see how Bette and Tina are together. Hopefully soon B&T will see it also and relax some and allow what they are feeling to work out.
Well their bodies seem to be clued in now if Bette and Tina’s heads and hearts would let them go it would be game over Jodie for sure.
The smile on my face is getting bigger and bigger for each new chapter…just loving it….keep going :) pps
Lets see what the new day brings!
Just read all 7 chapters in one sitting…please please post soon!
I love the teasing, such a great chapter sabina and I hope for more of these kinds of interactions, your descriptions are wonderful they really take you there with your imagination where all of this is taking place.Thank you dear and post soon.
Yah!! I was hoping to wake up to this wonderful story today. Can’t wait for more.
Talk about anticipation — woo! What an incredible journey thus far. Thank you!!
Love this story! It’s great to see it evolving slowly but surely. Jodi need to get married and ride of into the sunset. . .
Lovely first night – no rush. Looking forward to a more romantic episode when Bette is more into Tina, rather than pining for Jodi. BTW, the content and style of your writing is superb.. thanks for posting soon.
Sabina, please don’t keep us waiting much longer for your next update. I really love this story.
