    Holiday Fic #2: An unlikely source helps Bette gain a new perspective.

     

     Bette came down the stairs of her house with a frown on her face. There was an odor wafting from the kitchen that seemed like it should be familiar, but it wasn’t. She had slept in this morning, which was a habit she didn’t like. It felt lazy, even though she had no real reason to get up at six the way she used to. Dressed in an old Yale sweatshirt and with her curly hair just this side of messy, she knew she was looking uncharacteristically laid-back. Earlier when she’d glanced at herself in the mirror, she had been amused at her reflection. She never used to look like this, even on weekends. But, truth be told, she was sort of enjoying not working – for now – and just handling things at home and caring for Angie.

    Tina was home today as well, but she was up and about with the sort of endless energy Bette herself used to have but could no longer seem to work up these days. Bette could hear her and Angie together in the kitchen. As she passed the clock on the wall she checked the time and grimaced. It was after ten.

    Tina looked up with a smile when Bette came into the sunny kitchen. “Good morning,” she said.

    Bette needn’t have felt thrown together when she checked out her appearance earlier. Tina’s hair was in a high ponytail on her head, with a few strands falling out around her eyes. She had on an old plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled up and and a beat up pair of jeans. She was barefoot. Bette couldn’t deny that she looked cute this way.

    “Hey,” Bette said. She was about to say something else when Tina turned around and switched on the mixer. Bette glanced around, taking in the chaos of the kitchen. Flour, eggs, sugar, little jars of spices, trays and tubs of frosting… Angie was eating a dollop of something white on a saucer. Bette wrinkled her nose. “What are you making?” she asked Tina over the noise.

    Tina turned the mixer off. “Christmas cookies,” she said breezily.

    “It smells in here.”

    Tina laughed, incredulous. “Smells? Most people like the aroma of baked treats, Bette.”

    1. I’m loving these little sweet treats of yours, omalley! Bette’s snarky comments are hilarious… “a tin full of diabetes”… I’m still cracking up as I write this! Can’t wait for the next one.

    2. Ebenezer Porter amd Max plays the dual tole of the Ghost of Christmas present and future. I have heard that Santa has a third list in addition to “naughty” and “nice.”. His third list is “grumpy” and, luckily for Bette, Tina and Angelica (and Max) got Bette erased from that list. But did she get moved to “naughty” or “nice”? Hmmm. Thank you for your second installment. Please, omalley, I want some more. (Wrong Dickens, but “God bless us everyone” didn’t quite fit these circumstances.)

    3. Teasing Tina=2; Curmudgeon Bette = 0. I do love how you have Bette get into the season at the end of both stories. Kinda reminds me of Oscar the Grouch. He’d be cranky but always there with the last punch-line.My fav curmedgeon Bette line: I was thinking it looked like a tin full of diabetes, but I guess for some, it might be ‘nice’.”I’m so happy to read your holiday stories!!! Thank you so much! Can’t wait till tomorrow… Yeah!

    4. i LOVE THE HOLIDAYS You can make so many memories, that keeps you warn on cold winter nights. Children grows up so fast and go to the four winds and sometime all you have are those memories. thanks

    5. Hahahaha Bette lost against the christmas spirit lol. Tina is very patient because I would have kick Bette ass out of the kitchen a long time ago pmsl. I love the Christmas spirit lol. Thank you for posting. PPVS

    7. Why, oh why hasn’t Bette learned that she can not win against those two lovely pretties she loves so much. Tina knows a million ways around that pretend coldness and curnudgeoness and just loves to trick Bette into complying to her wishes. Love how Tina and Angie gets to her everytime. Can’t wait until they make her decorate a tree. lol Thanks for posting. Love these Christmas stories of yours.

    13. I swear Bette act as if she just doesn’t consume any calories, but shes addicted to coffee which is bad for you with all the caffeine, im happy in these stories that she always comes to the realization of what’s really important!
