Chapter 15
Day 12. Somewhere in West Hollywood.
Bette sat in her car hyperventilating. She had talked herself in and out of this for days. But she was going to see Tina tomorrow and she wanted to start afresh with the blonde, with no more ghosts of girlfriends past hanging over their shoulders. She knew they still had a lot to find out about each other, and she knew she herself had a lot of baggage that she was carrying around with her. But she did not want this to be on that list. This affected both of them and she couldn’t stand it. She rested her head on the steering wheel, begging for strength. She was Bette Porter for god sake!
She got out of the car and straightened her outfit – she had worn her best power suit – black slim cut Italian silk with a tailored white shirt. She knew she looked like a force to be reckoned with when she wore this suit, but it wasn’t how she looked that she was interested in – it was how she felt – and this suit made her feel confident, unbreakable and powerful – and she needed all the help she could get right now.
She stepped into the planet and looked around until she found the table that hosted Dana and Shane… and Alice. Shane caught her eye and nodded; Bette had already briefed her and asked she bring Alice here today. She strode over as confidently as she could manage.
“Hi gang”
“Hey Bette” Dana was surprised to see the brunette, she had been avoiding the Planet and anywhere else Alice might be.
“Hey Bette, Dana and I were just going to get a refill, can we get you anything?” Shane stood, pulling a still confused Dana to her feet.
“I’ll have a latte thanks Shane”
Alice still had not spoken, still taking in the vision of Bette. They had not seen or spoken to each other in the past week, not since the break up. Bette smiled gently at the blonde and sat down next to her.
“Hey Al, how are you?”
“Good, I’m good.” She meant it, she was fine, the time apart had done her good and she realised she missed hanging out with Bette.

Great update, Alice took the news a hell of alot better than I expected.
Well I guess it could have been a lot worse. I just hope Alice is able to forgive Tina like she did Bette they both kissed each other nothung was one way. Now B7T need some time alone together. PPS
Tina is written so well in your story – she is so calm and collected. Absolutely loving her strength. Bette is actually talking – OMG! Impressive that she was that open with Alice. I am with Tina – counting down the final hours until the couple unites at the airport with a quick trip to the hotel, perhaps?
Wow glad they could work that out…they just weren’t meant for each other! Now on to San Fransico!! Is there going to be a reappearance of Sam?? Oh the drama! PPS:)
Procrastination is not all bad. Haven’t you seen Ellen’s stand-up we should all procrastinate more, of course, I don’t want you to not get your paper done but I sure do love reading this story. post more when you can. : )
Great story. Looking forward to more.
I just caught up. Dang Tina needs Bette and needs her now. At least Tina will not have to see Sam, but I do feel bad for Alice because she will have to see Bette and Tina together.
Very nice story. Love the pace. jinjur
That was exciting, thank you so much for making the time to write these two chapters, I SO love this story, and you write it so well, I loved the fact that Bette went to Alice and told her and got that out of the way, because let’s face it they are going to see her one day no matter how hard they tried to avoid it. Good luck at school, I hope to see you post soon with the good news that you did well at the paper. Have a great day Love
Couldn’t ask for a better conclusion for Bette and Alice. Hey maybe there is another product of your procastination that you can post 2day. LOL
thank goodness all is okay with Bette and Alice. Bette needs to stop punishing herself for this. you can’t help with whom you fall in love. there is no way they could have stopped their feelings. Really like this story. PPS
glad they both got honest!!!! now to bette in san francisco…will there be fireworks with sam? pps.
WOW at least both came clean to their exs, good start! I feel bad for alice but she understands what bette is saying, she will need some time…:)PPS
I’m glad Bette told Alice before she went to SF, to give Al time to get used to the idea. I think those two will be fine, and I hope the same for Alice and Tina. Great post, tbp, thanks!
They are starting out with a clean start, No extra baggage to try to hide. thanks
I’m all caught up now and I must say this is absolutely extraordinary! I can actually feel the pain and angst. Do you think you could procrastinate just a little longer? Thank you for writing!
Your writing has such a realistic quality about it. I hope that you personally haven’t been the jilted lover b/c that’s so painful. Your dialogue is authentic and so was that little scene at the end w/Tina.
Great update!!!!! I so just caught up again. This just keeps getting better!!! Thanks
Absolutely awesome and enjoyable story. Thanks for sharing.
totally diggin it!
I feel terrible for Alice, but I am glad that Bette told her the truth. Wonder if Sam is going to run into Tina and Bette, who am I kidding those women aren’t getting out of the hotel room.
