    Subtleties * Chapter 13

    CHAPTER 13

     

    Bette looked around at her gallery and smiled.  Her space was packed with a multitude of New York’s finest artists, critics, and collectors.  The champagne and wine was plentiful, as was the intellectual and not so intellectual conversations that echoed off of the gallery walls.  The exhibit was a hit and even more successful than her first opening, a feat she hadn’t let herself even imagine.  The evening’s artist was beside herself with four of her pieces having already sold, indeed a credit to the beautiful gallery owner who had convinced her, and rightfully so, that there was no one else who could highlight her work the way the Bette Porter Gallery could.

    "Oh my God, Bette.  This is amazing!"

    Bette turned to face the young artist and smiled, "You’re a hit."

    "Because of you.  The way you lit my work, Bette.  I mean honestly, I know you explained it to me but I couldn’t see it.  You saw my work in a completely different way than I had imagined."

    "Thank you," Bette clinked her glass of champagne with the artist and then nonchalantly looked over by the entrance.  She had sent the driver to pick up Tina at seven and here it was nearly nine and not a sight of the blonde.  She was starting to worry.

    "So?"

    "I’m sorry, what?"  Bette drew her attention back to Tricia.

    "I asked who you’ve been waiting for all night.  You’ve looked over at the door over a hundred times in the last hour."

    "Just waiting for a friend."

    "A friend?"  The artist teased.

    The corner of Bette’s mouth curled into an involuntary smile, "Maybe someone more than a friend."

    "Pretty"

    "Gorgeously sexy"

    "Smart?"

    "Startlingly bright and imaginative," Bette sighed.

    "Wow, you have it bad."

    "I do.  And if you’ll excuse me, I have to make a phone call regarding my missing guest."  Bette affectionately squeezed Tricia’s arm as she excused herself.  After nodding a few more hellos and shaking some outstretched hands, she made her way to her office. 

     

    ***

     

    "Unfuckingbelievable!"  Tina groaned from the backseat of the town car.  "What the hell is going on?"

    The driver sunk low in the front seat.  The blonde was furious, but not as furious as Bette Porter would be when they finally arrived.  He had been over thirty minutes late picking her up, yet the blonde hadn’t even batted an eye.  But there had been an accident, and the traffic was ridiculous.  Kennard’s patience was wearing thin.

    1. Tina is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!. That was the most effective dismissal I’ve ever read about or seen, and I’ve actually seen a few in my time. That was priceless. However, I don’t think we have seen the last of jodi but, if she has any sense at all, she will walk away and stay away. Tina will tear her apart if she tries anything else. This was a great chapter, loved it. Thanks for posting.

    2. This is one of my favorite stories of all time. Great characterizations with open, powerful personalities who definitely know who they are. No wishy washy attitudes allowed here. :-)

    3. That was absolutely brilliant. I am glad that Tina took being late in stride, and her timing was perfect, just like herself. The kiss to Bette in front of Jodie was priceless. Yes they have admitted their love for one another.

    4. and jodie has left the building… loved that… so glad tina didn’t take that any other way… when jodie siad bye and tina said bye… i was hoping she would of added… “(Don’t) let the door hit you in your ass on your way out”… love this story… pps

    5. YES go Tina way to lay claim to your woman. This Jody is so full of herself I love the way you described the scene. I can see Bette’s expression so well awesome writing thanks for sharing
