Chapter 19
The Opening (Part 2)
Bette and Tina had returned to work, and work they did. Bette had spent a good deal of time talking to reporters and some of the heavy hitters in the art community and with each conversation her smile grew. The show was looking to be the most successful Bette had had to date. All the artists had impressed but Nicholas was a smash. His exhibited paintings had all sold with commissions for more piling up. They continued to work tirelessly until about 11:00 pm when things were starting to wind down. The girls had assembled by the bar in the lobby and Bette and Tina were walked over to join them. Helena turned toward the approaching women and raised her glass.
“Bravo ladies, to an inspired show and a magnificent evening.”
The others turned toward Bette and Tina and joined in the toast, raising their glasses.
“Here here, Here here!!!”
The women smiled and joined the circle and shared hugs all around. Bette lifted her glass to her friends and said.
“To my family, thank you. Thank you for always supporting, loving, and most importantly, putting up with my um, moods before a show. I mean it guys, thank you. I really appreciate all of your support.”
Alice could not resist, “Ahh, how cute. Quick, write down the date and time, Porter said something nice.”
Everyone laughed and playfully hit Alice. Kit changed the subject. “So, Tina, how do you feel? Are you glad your first show is over?”
Tina beamed at Kit. “Relieved yes, so relieved…but a bit sad all the excitement is over. It’s all been just so, so unbelievably amazing.”
Tina and Bette shared a luminous smile.
Alice jumped in. “Hey, over here you two, remember us?”
Everyone joined in. “Alice!!”
Shane saved the moment. “Hey Tina, I met your daughter. She’s really beautiful.”
Bette glared at Shane. “Shane! Do Not Even Consider The….”
Shane quickly jumped back stunned and responded. “No! I swear. No. I mean she is beautiful but no, no, no Tina believe me.”
Tina laughed. “I know Shane. It’s okay. She is beautiful. Thank you.”
Bette muttered, still glaring at Shane. “Just so long as we’re clear.”
Alice chimed in, “Hey, did anyone else get a glimpse of Tina’s ‘hot hubby’?”

Ah yes the pout. Makes you wanna nibble on that bottom lip. Oh yes the sofa, to talk of course. Thank you.
That was oh so delicious. I am so glad Tina was finally able to take the first step towards her happiness. Bette won’t know what hit her.
Yes Yes! The sofa is a good place to talk. :) Great update finally! Thank you!
Great Update ! I am so glad Tina was finally able to live in the moment! Can’t wait to read more – PPS!
Looks like a tornado just whipped through the gallery and left massive destruction in its wake. They’ll never be the same again. PPS.
Yeah, they really need to have a talk. If they can keep their hands off of each other long enough to do the “talking”… It’ll be interesting to see how long Bette is able to resist Tina’s pout. Great chapter, D&A, thanks! (and pps!)
Yeah that was a pretty hot and heavy first kissing session. :) Loved it. It’s good to see them finally admit that they has deeper feelings for one another.
Mmmh… dessert! Yes please :) Well done TIna!
Let’s forget about talking and GO STRAIGHT for the dessert. AWESOME update. PPVVVVVVVVVSSSSSSSS.

Ohhh, thank you! Now I hope they can do a little more kissin’ on the couch, after the “talk”, of course. PPS!!
WOW!!! That was HOT!!! Now for the talk on the sofa. Just hope they do talk some. Thank you PPS
how romantic hey. just love it.PPVS
Oh Yes!!!!!!!!!!. Finally, they have taken the first step towards that love they’ve both been waiting and looking for all their lives. I’m sure Bette is thinking “where have you been all my life.” Kalapana was right, Bette won’t know what hit her. This was just so beautiful. Now Tina can tell her everything. I know she will probably cry but Bette is there to hold her. Gosh, Tina is a bit of a romantic and that bodes well for them. She did a beautiful job with the surprise dinner celebration for Bette. That was a lovely touch. Please post as quickly as you can. I can hardly wait for the next chapter. Thanks so much for posting this chapter so quickly. LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
