The Letter
Chapter 10
I normally wouldn’t have gone to a bar but Stacey had asked me to go with her earlier in the week and I couldn’t think quickly enough to come up with a reason not to go. When she called me while on my way there to tell me that she had to go into emergency surgery, I decided to go ahead and get a drink. It had already been a long week and the drink would be good before heading home and going to bed. Little did I know that one drink would make my life seem like I had no control over it.
I had only lived in LA for three months and I was still trying to get used to the area and the change of pace. I wasn’t used to big city living since I had lived in Chapel Hill, NC for so long but I was enjoying it and Stacey, as always was a wonderful friend to me. She tried so hard to make the transition easier for me and we had fun together as we always had. I had missed her all the years that we had been apart.
Stacey and I had met in college. We had both arrived in Boston as frightened freshmen from smaller towns in the south and clung to each other during the four years we were there. We took classes, hung out and enjoyed ourselves. We were inseparable. When she got into medical school in Chicago, I went along for the ride. She had gotten accepted in Loyola University Medical School and I got accepted into their law school. We continued our days as roommates, barely seeing one another due to our studies but always there for each other as needed.
We had both come out during undergraduate school. Stacey was prone to playing the field while I was much more the commitment type. I had dated Fawn during three years in undergraduate school but she joined the Peace Corp after college and we both decided that it would be better to go our separate ways before starting our new ventures. It was sad but I was so excited about law school that it took some of the sting out of it for me. The time with Fawn was even better because she and Stacey got along so well so we all hung out together with whomever Stacey was dating at the time. Fawn always encouraged me to spend time with Stacey when she and I were both free so that helped us maintain our great friendship. Stacey and I loaded our cars and made the trip out to Illinois and I didn’t look back with any regret.

Now, we’re talking! Yay for Tina! And, off topic- what’s up with If You Never…?
I love the detail of the characher’s thinking your style allows… well done!!! PPS!
I have never left a comment before.. I used to be one of those silent readers BUT your story forced my hand. As much as I enjoyed your other stories this one is my favorite so far. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, our girl in on board, and Ms Porter was the Lady is Shining armor. Lets go to dinner.then have lunch a few times and guess to breakfast thanks so much for taking your time to make us happy.
Great I like that Tina made the move for a date. Really like the way you share details and glad that Tina has a backbone and is strong in her convictions.
Okay…I have a goofy smile. ;-) Thanks!
love this story… and i love how the sparks are starting… and i know tina won’t have a problem with bette having kids… PPS
Oh god NAG, you are just so good! I love the way you tell your stories…such detail and feeling that you really get drawn in to the characters and what’s happening. So…Bette and Tina and a first date. I knew you wouldn’t let us down!
Lovely!!!! sad background for Tina, cheaters are a bitch that u can never quite trust again no matter how much you love them. Liked that T was straight up in asking B out to dinner. and yeah hanging out for IF YOU NEVER…
Alrighty! Tina’s also got some alpha in her, so there will be fireworks here, I can see! PPS.
Poor Tina, she didn’t deserve to be cheated on, but I guess she had to in order to be free as a bird when she met Bette =) Looking forward to the DATE!!!! xD These chapters are getting better and better. Can’t wait ;)
Okay so I’ll wait for the first dance…but I hope Tina’s true to her word about the first kiss. Tina’s background story was wonderful. I’m joining in and pleading for an update to If You Never… the wait has been extraordinarily painful given where the story left off…PPS!
Thank you for Tina’s backstory (do think the ic could have done that) and then the chance meeting with Bette. Can’t wait for the next day to approach and the evening to begin.
It’s wonderful they’ve finally met and Bette being gallant and rescuing a damsel in distress. Their meeting and subsequent dating and falling in love will be so beautiful because you’re writing it and I know we will love it. Tina will fit so well into this family and I do believe the girls will love her also. Her temperament will remind Bette of their mother. So glad you have given Tina a family history and background and her parents are supportive, so important for her, especially meeting someone new. Tina being a strong person is also important and with her own career already. Just Great. Can hardly wait for their date and for the dating and romance to begin. Bring it on. Thanks for posting on the weekend. PPVS.
There you go NAG, hook-em up. You have me singing that Meatloaf song, Objects in the rear view mirror are closer than they appear. Hope they don’t have to fumble around to much. Thank you, Md

How sweet is bette to walk tina out!!Love how u give tina background…i bet alice didn’t ever notice bette left… can’t wait for them to go to dinner or just get together…:)PPS
