Just The Girl 2.0 – Chapter Fifteen and a Half (based loosely on HYD: Returns)
CHAPTER FIFTEEN AND A HALF: Your Guardian Angel In Limbo
“Hey love, missed me?” Lifting her sunglasses from her eyes and letting it rest on her head, she uttered her customary greeting as she entered through the wrought iron gate to her partner’s current home. It was their thing; when she’d come home and find him there waiting for her, she’d say those four words – always accompanied by a smile, followed immediately by a quick kiss. And he, with his most charming grin, would always respond by pulling her tightly into his arms and whispering the words “not a bit” in her ear. She would always pout at this answer, but he would always wash this away by smothering her face with tiny kisses until a melodious giggle bursts forth from her lips. That was one of their traditions; yet another one of their many quirks as husband and wife.
Oh, what she would give to hear another “not a bit” whispered playfully near her ear.
“Sorry it took so long for me to visit, love. We had our finals last week.” Jill, dressed in a casual white sundress – one of his favorites on her, walked over to her husband’s final resting place, her heels clicking loudly on the marble floor of the Grisham family-owned mausoleum. His was the only body there; her late grandfather had wanted his ashes spread in his beloved estate in Manchester, and her grandmother wanted to be buried near her ancestral home in New Hampshire. “I’m not happy with my portfolio but my mentor seems to be satisfied with it..” She shared, gathering the wilting flowers on the vase atop the marble niche that housed her husband. “Sometimes I wish he was as critical of my work as the other mentors seem to be with the other students, but being daddy’s friend, I guess I’ll never hear any constructive criticism from him, hm?” She sighed, throwing the dead flowers inside the trash bag she brought with her. “I think he was told to play nice..” She said somewhat resentfully. She appreciated her father’s protective ways, but sometimes, she can’t help but feel that it was stifling her growth. “Do you think I should talk to daddy about it and ask him to stop talking to my professors? He’ll deny it for sure, but it won’t hurt to try right?” She continued taking as if he was going to wake up from his eternal slumber and answer her. But she didn’t care how silly she looked; she loved these conversations with Eric, no matter how one-sided they were.

Perfect timing, that classes has been suspended in my part of town, therefore got time to read and re-read your posts without distractions. Hope Jill will not interpret Bette bringing white lillies into something its totally not. Or will she?
hmmmmmmm… did eric bring jill white lillies… and she is thinking its ok for her to go after bette.. I THINK NOT… one more week… come on home tina… remember my heart… pps
I’m a bit scared of your next post there was a “:(” next to it. That can’t be a good thing, or is it? Thanks for the post! I love them!
okay..that was quite the forboding post…you have me worried…really! i know you like the drama,but “..” you know…?!
Ok, bring Tina on home to Bette! PPS
That’s not a good sign. Please let the white lilies mean that he wants her to not pursue Bette. OMG, Tina come home! Thanks alch.
Had to comment twice. I think Bette had a dream about standing in a field of white lilies covered in blood. If I am remembering correctly, then this is definitely not a good sign. Still loving alch.
Poor Jill. I hope she can start letting go, without misreading Bette’s offering of white lilies. What did Alice know about Eric? When’s that going to come to light? Or maybe it shouldn’t. And your preview: Heartless? *blinks* Should I be worried, or… Nahhh. I’m just gonna trust you, Alch. Thanks for the “half” chapter. :)
What an amazing ride this is!! I told you before … you’re writing is a book I can’t put down… one i would read in a day!! I’m a little worried too about “heartless”….. :)
Oh, is this a good sign or a bad sign? It is a good sign in that Jill has been given the go ahead to move forward, but it could be a bad sign if Bette is that person that Jill wants.
That doesn’t sounded right to me:(Come on Jill,the lilies didn’t mean anything,really.And another week to go…hopefully Tina will be back soon,even though I don’t know if anything could be changed if Jill made up her mind:(So much drama,and I can’t stop reading it.PPS
oh nooooooo… Why is the clue ‘heartless’? :( It’s going to be bitter sweet huh? Though knowing this is essentially a Tibette story, I can’t help but to feel down about the incoming temporary(i hope) separation- even after the week :O
woooo that was a longgg chapter,not that im complaining, it was brilliant.i hope that Jill doesn’t misinterpret the flowers as a sign that she should be with Bette. even though she said she would never take Bette away from anyone,she might change her mind because of the “sign” from Eric. im gonna join the other devote Tibette fans and say “Bring Tina home” pretty please. anyway thanks for the post and PPS
I love your long chapters. They’re always such a good read. Thanks a lot for the updates!
OMG! Alchy…you ended with a :(. NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cling to your inner-Tibetteness that happy is in the future. You wrote the tender moment between Eric and Jill. Well done! Of course…you set us up for that white lily moment. UGG!!!! Please, Jill go away soon…PPS! Love ya Alchy…you so Rock!!!!!!
I am a silent reader….most of the time. But what can I say! Thank you for this story……I love the Bette that you created…..she is different. PPS
That was great and now bring back B&T home and be together again. Please post more, thanks!
You know, you make it difficult for me to leave my place for some days. Even if it is to bring a little sanity in my brain. It’ s the second time that I wasn’ t home and when I’ m back I read two chapters like these two. Hmp… (frustrated sigh)! I want them back together. I can’ t take it any longer. Please… please bring them back together! It hurts too much… Please? Kisses.
