Chapter 22
KDG Offices – Friday Morning: T-Minus 4 hours and 18 minutes To Show Time
Thursday was hectic for Bette at the office and today was going to be no different. As she and Max were enjoying lunch in their office, Leonard came racing in to tell them both that his New York meeting was moved to Saturday morning because the pharmaceutical company had received a patent on their new Erectile Dysfunction pill and were ready to market it along with their High Cholesterol pill they had already contracted with KDG to create a Super Bowl ad for.
The company told Leonard that if he could pitch the ED pill campaign in addition to the HC pill campaign, they would sweeten the pot by signing a 3-year exclusivity deal for both products if they liked KDG’s ideas.
Needless to say, Thursday was a 14 hour day for Bette and Max as they tried to design a logo as well as a concept for a television commercial. Truth be told, this wasn’t one of Bette’s areas of expertise since she could give two shits about penis problems. It didn’t help that every idea she had was vetoed by Leonard and his penis.
Here it was, 3:12 p.m. the day of the show, and Bette was still no where close to finishing the pitch. She had already resigned herself to coming in on Saturday in order to finish the quarterly reports she left Wednesday night after Max hooked up the webcams. Leonard was already on his way to New York and would land around 6:30 local time, which was 18 minutes from now. He expected Bette to have a Power Point rough draft emailed to him by the time he checked into his hotel.
The busy brunette heard her phone buzzing underneath the mountain of papers and file folders spread across her desk. Kit was calling.
“Kit, I really can’t talk right now, I am so buried, and if I don’t spend every available moment working, I will not be able to make it to your first show tonight.” She fired out her statement in an instant.
“I’m sorry Baby Sis, I know you’re swamped. Just calling to check in on you, girl. And to let you know that Alice and Tayo are on their way to drop off a late lunch ‘cause I know you ain’t eatin’ buried under all that paperwork.” Kit said hurriedly.

haha…won’t be long now! Bette will park taht sexy car in her personal spot and finally get to finish that kiss that was so rudely interrupted when the girls came to blows last time. If Bette takes Tina for a “ride” in her “ride” all bets are off for Tina ever questioning whether she wants to be w/ men or women. Great post!
Woah…. Will they meet? I hope so! :-) and meloveslu, you do know how to sloooooooowwwwwwwy killing me :-D the excitement of being cliff hanging?? Well it’s part of the contract for being one of your fans I guess?!? ;-) LOL … Must have learnt the lessons after 20+ chapters …. :-p he3… PPVS? thanks!! :-)
LOL @ wkm! Your teasing meloveslu is turning your readers into a bunch of pessimists :P Thank you and PPS
That was great and now let Bette go to Tina and get together again. Please post more, thanks!
Fantastic. Maybe they will get to see esch other in just a little bit. Sure hope that damned nadia and jodi don’t intefere with them getting together. Those two should be dropped into the deepest part of the ocean with weights on them. I’m afraid you misunderstood me. I wasn’t disrespecting the CTS, it is a fantastic car, I meant that Bette always preferred the imported SAAB rather than a car produced in the US, and SAAB is her favorite. Personally I think the CTS is a beauty and fast as greased lightning. Fantstic chapter. Thanks for posting.
Now there will probably a traffic jam so Bette can’t get there and Helena will call to make sure Tina has to leave. You are just too much of a tease to allow them to meet in the next chapter.
Although this chapter was long meloveslu I think you forgot the remainder chapters!! :) What a tease! You know I do that when I watch horror movies! I know so embrassing :) Thank you for this wonderful story and please post soon.
Yeah and to add to wkm´s quite believable scenario, I´m throwing in a couple of expected obstacles fx. a few locked doors, a vulcano erupting somewhere without importance and the sprinklers going off….stop with the teasing already or I will bloody well write it myself..Please!
May be they will meet in the next chapter?Thank you for the update.Great story.
Hi meloveslu, More buildup as both Bette and Tina fouind it difficult to full focus on their respective days. I am so happy that fate is bringing them together for a second meeting and proper kiss (I hope). I do get the sense that the earth might move for them which will have nothing to do with the volume of the band’s music. Please let them finally have a conversation. More please and many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
loving this… and still reading… but i need to take a break… (I”m at work, don’t tell anyone)…
