I woke up, relishing the softness of my bed. If there was one thing I missed when I was travelling it was a real bed. A real pillow, and my most favourite of all things a real, honest to goodness alarm clock. I as excited to set in for the next morning, to hear the synthesised thump thump thump of my most loathed kind of music, dance, to get me up for the day.
Yes, it was good. I yawned and stretched my arms above my head, arching my back. The glorious shift of my vertebra into alignment became second to the painful shift of my shoulder back into its socket.
Comfortable in my body, I opened my eyes and caught something moving out of the corner of my eye. Slightly jumping I quickly rolled onto my side, ready to spring from my bed if needed. The happy laughter of one of my favourite people allayed my fight reflex and awoken my flight. I flew out of bed, my feet barely touching the floor before I was in the arms of my sister.
“I know you.” I said, smiling with tears of happiness in my eyes.
“I’m surprised you even remember what I look like.” She responded her voice much harsher then the smile then adorned her face. I know that she was joking, but there is an element of truth in her statements.
“Kit.” I warn, “not tonight.” It was my first night home, and I knew inevitably I would have to field her questions, accusations and frustrations over the way I had chosen to live and enjoy my life. I did every time I had returned, but this time I was away for 4 months, much longer then I have been able to do since I first started. It was the most free I have felt in years, but I don’t think Kit enjoyed that freedom as much as I did.
“I just worry,” Kit started to explain “you’re not as strong as you think…” I held up my hand to fall stall anymore of her explanation.
Sighing, a drew in a deep breath. “You don’t like it. It’s not safe. I’m not close enough to a hospital. There are diseases.” I counted of each of her points on my fingers. Sometimes I just wish, “can’t you just be happy I’m home?” I am trying for some benign emotional blackmail. I don’t want to be pulled down tonight. I want to be at home, with the people I love.

So who is in talks with a publisher.fantastic update here. Im cannot wait for more what is Bette’s job by the way?
Thanks for the update. After reading the story and JC’s comment, what is Bette running from. I gathered that much from the first chapter and is Tina in this story, in Bette’s life in the past or future. Making assumptions is dangerous, however, that is all I’m left with. Is or has Tina been a love interest and like JC, something horrendous has happened to Bette and Kit, of course, wants to keep her close by to watch over her and Bette isn’t having any of it. Guess I’ll have to wait for more chapters to reveal the answers. Great post. PPS
I just read both chapter’s, is Bette sick? I so can not wait to see this wonerful story unfold. Thank you Deean
I am enjoying how the story is unfolding…keep the chapters coming. Please?
I too am enjoying the story, and can’t wait to learn more. Hopefully Tina will appear to help Bette with what ever she has/is going through.
No hopefully Tina will NOT come and take care of Bette, she has enough problems already. It is not written somewhere that every fic with Bette in it MUST have Tina as well!! Oh the burdens Bette carries are heavy indeed, we can see this, and I can only imagine what has caused those burdens. I have to say, that as comical as Alice may seem on paper, having an adult friend who was stuck at the emotional age of 8 would get old really fast,and I wonder if she is emotionally able to give Bette the support she needs, rather than just being comic relief. Dana too, it seems as though this Dana is much farther into her shell than “our” Dana, and needs alot of nurturing. I wonder if they even know what her burdens are? It’s possible that only Kit knows what is going on? it seems like there is more than one thing, there is physical issues and I think extremely heavy emotional issues. If I amy ask, Justin, WHAT is all this “cuzzie’ stuff?
Hello My Beautiful Dee… hmmmmmmphh… Bette is in so much turmoil… such an emotional distress… the idea of going to an “Oasis” is not lost on me… it is a place of healing be it physical or emotional… and I fear that Bette has suffered within both realms… I fear she has lost something… there is a subtext throughout your lyrical way with words to screams that something is amiss in her life… sickness… or the loss of something so incredible it would send you to such a harsh environment to seek some kind of balance… you have such an uncanny ability to make one think about the trajectories and pathways in which each of your characters might think and feel… but the reference to Bette’s physical conditions leave one to feel that she is doing hard penance upon her soul… you my friend are completely amazing… and yes inspiring… you might not see it but you just completely inspire me, mucho love and hugs, JC (Latin Nephew to those Salsa Angels and ever loving Cuzzie to the ever talented Eunichick and Newly Crowned Cuzzie to T_Daze)
Bette seems to be sending an SOS, seem in a lot distress, Is Tina in this? She has been gone for 4 months and seem to be very tired,is she ill Has something terrible happen in her life. Our Dana is still quite but not the stronger type now. Thanks
