The Roommates – Pride & Prejudice: Chapter 6
Previously
When she was finally alone in her room that evening, Tina pulled out her computer and connected to the wireless network in the apartment. She logged into her email and couldn’t help but smile broadly when she saw Bette’s name in her inbox.
Her hazel eyes followed Bette’s excitement-tinged words and as she read, she could almost hear Bette speaking aloud to her. When she reached the end of the note she hit the reply button and wondered if she should mention that evening’s “Eric Sighting”.
From 2nd Dimension – Chapter 61
Tears rose to Bette’s eyes. She stared at the drawing, seeing the dark strokes of charcoal through a watery haze.
“Sidney….it’s beautiful,” she whispered.
The scene before her was captivating. It was a silhouette of a young woman gazing out at an art exhibit. The young woman stood in the lower right-hand corner, her back facing anyone peering into her world. Long curls cascaded down her back and in her profile a slight smile was visible. Gallery walls, paintings, people, and ambience filled the scene. Beyond the gallery, the Los Angeles skyline glittered in the background. Tall buildings, sidewalks, and a sunset rounded out the sketch’s deep dimensions and as the first tears rolled down her cheeks, Bette saw a small building in the cityscape that caught her eye. It was labeled “Bette’s Gallery” in tiny upward sloping script.
Bette wiped at her tears, her dark eyes studying the masterpiece before her. She knew that the silhouette belonged to her.
“When did you do this?” asked Bette.
Sidney’s voice was soft, her eyes studying Bette’s reaction. “I started it a few weeks after we broke up. I’d done some work with charcoals before – – -,” she began.
Bette looked up and met her eyes. “I remember.”
“And I just needed something to help me through the breakup. So I started to draw. I just finished it about a month or so ago. I was still working on the details.”
Bette knew the scene well. It was their date at The Getty. The date where she and Sidney ran into Tina and Eric.

I’m glad you’re back! And I’m glad you are well. Now, on to the story. I can understand Tina’s reaction to Mark. She may be attracted to him if she is already worried how she would react should they see each other again. I just hope she don’t act on it. Hold in there Tina, Bette is coming home. Thanks for posting. :)

You posted! Yaaaayyy!!! Wow! We were so happy to see you updating this amazing story, which has always been close to our hearts. Thanks! You can’t imagine how excited we were to find this interesting chapter about our young B&T fav couple! Hmmm However, we see trouble in paradise, as clouds of uncertainty move B&T to turbulent waters. Therefore, we are going to fasten our seatbelts and accept the ride you want to take us along. We know that, deep inside, you are a true TiBetter, like us, and you will always find a way for them to be together. We really missed you! PPS Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)

This is not boding well for Bette and Tina. Usually with these type of situations the romance ends in due time. I sure hope that is not the case for Bette and Tina.
Pagash says

Eddy says
I’m really glad you’re back. I have so missed this story. But please no drana coming between Bette and Tina. It’s enough drama in the real world and life.
sistafloetry says
This is another one of my favorite stories. After all that Bette and Tina has been through to be together it seems like forces out of there control is putting a wedge between them. I can’t wait till they reconnect and remember the love they have can outlast the distance between them. looking forward to the next chapter coming soon hopefully :)
fortlw says
I waited patiently and was rewarded with another chapter. I love this story and look forward to many more chapters a bit more frequently.
Englishmuffin says
Glad your back, i love this story so i hope there are more posts to come soon.Great update PPS thanks
mightymouse says
Wow, I’m so glad you resurrected this story, MTS. Imo, this is one of the best long-running B&T fics in this site. And your post fell on my birthday. So thank you for adding a cherry to my already decadent cake. :> But you know what, I second Eddy’s drama fatigue. Yeah, life is hard enough that when I get the chance to pop in here, I can’t help but favor lighthearted, sugar-coated B&T stuff with a semblance of substance. I’m really worried about Tina’s reaction to the attention from men that she’s getting. OMG, please, please, no retreading of S3 storylines. Not to mention Bette’s cloud of doubt, her deep conversation with Sidney and her failure to communicate with Tina. Shit, they are growing as individuals but growing apart. If I’m not mistaken, this is usually the recipe for relationship disaster. And that’s really sad. *sigh* I’m going to read the bunch of sweet chapters you’ve written in the past to drive away the worries in my head. Thank you again for this update, MTS, and please post whenever you can. Cheers! :>
