Chapter 66
The Planet – Wednesday Night
Tina pulled into a parking space and killed the engine. Fuck, she’s not here yet.
She leaned back in the driver seat with her head knocking against the backrest in frustration. Her phone sat in the cup holder of her center console.
The blonde closed her eyes and drew in a deep breath, hoping against hope that Bette would make an appearance at Kit’s karaoke night.
Tina found herself unable to sleep much the night before. The only reason she succumbed to a fitful slumber was due to the sheer exhaustion from her emotional state.
It wasn’t a coincidence to Tina that last night was the first California evening where the weather was significantly chillier than the previous September nights. She was more than sure that Bette’s absence next to her in bed was the reason it seemed so cold.
Once she got home, it took everything in Tina’s power not to get right back in her car and return to Bette’s in order to fix the problem she had created. She managed to exercise some self control and even refrained from texting or calling Bette, despite her dire need to hear that smooth, velvety voice whispering assurances that they would be okay.
The rise of the sun, however, brought with it the death of Tina’s willpower and the onslaught of unanswered texts were sent, as were the calls.
Now, out of the corner of her eye, she stared resentfully at the uncooperative communication device. Finding the strength to resist the temptation of making yet another ignored phone call, Tina gathered the rest of her belongings and got out of the car. She straightened her pencil skirt suit in the shiny reflection of her BMW.
Happy with what she saw looking back at her, she confidently strode towards the entrance of the Planet. As she got closer to the opened door, she could hear Kit on the microphone praising the most recent singer who had just stepped off the stage.
Stepping into the club, Tina witnessed Kit introduce the next up to sing.
“Give it up, ya’ll, for Shameless Shaaaades McCutcheon!” Kit hollered into the mic.
Tina saw a smirking Shane make her way to the stage. Wearing a pair of mirrored Aviators, purple patent leather pants, and a black bandana on her head, the young drummer looked every bit of the rock and roll star she was bound to be.

Another wonderful update…Thank you for this update but just too too short! Please post a few more chapters I really miss this story. Thank you again Meloveslu.
Really love this story …but the chapters are tooo short! Anything you can do w/that? LoL
Was wondering weather I would see more of this story, thrilled I am
hey hun hav caught up. need the hankies at the ready lol. Thanks for updates loving this. :)
Silent reader putting in a cameo appearance. I have missed your story very much. I understand that Bette feels betrayed but let her know that Tina’s heart is true. PPS
You’re too good to let so much time come between chapters. Bette is stubborn and prideful. She’s lucky she’s so beautiful b/c no one would put up w/her BS.
Welcome back! Bette is always in her own head. Tina and Kit are the only ones who have the patience. Can’t wait for more!
Hello you!!!! I’m doing fine!!! Back to the west indies again for show with another artist, then back to Europe week after. Bette is afraid and so is Tina. They have to let go to get back to love!!!!!! I miss that story!!!!Thanks for update.
Heeeey, MeLL. You’ve got me doing my happy dance seeing you posting! Always loved the group scenes on the show and yours are even better. Just picturing Shane decked out in Axl Rose fashion made me smile. I’m hoping that if Tina sings that Bette is able to see it thru her laptop. The well-placed cameras worked the first time…She needs a visual reminder of what she’s missing. Thanks for the update. Enjoy the long weekend!
I have missed this story, glad you are back
really love this story thanks!!!
Glad to see you back my friend, that was great and hope Bette and Tina will talk soon. Please post more, thank!
Glad you are back.Such a great story.PPS
Finally!!! You tell me you will post and then you don’t do it….so if a quid pro quo is needed to get you to post more regularly…… A quid pro quo it is….. Although I feel that it is going to be unfair as you know fine rightly you are way ahead of me, so if you feel like posting even if I don’t ….go right ahead chuckle! ;0) I enjoy this story equally as much now as I did when you first stumbled on the front page. Bette is in her dark place and Tina is feeling guilty as hell
Wooops….. Finger slipped! So like I was saying…. Bette is unhappy and so is Tina …and I know that your incredible writing will give us an almighty wonderful and powerful reunion ! When though?!!?! :0) thanks you are incredible ! (and now to hit the right key to send this off!!)
Happy you’re back with another chapter of this great story. Tina needs to listen to what Kit says and heed her warnings concerning Bette. But Bette needs to get the hell out of her head and talk to Tina to let her know what she is feeling and why. Hopefully she will get tired of being by herself and show up just when Tina is singing a very appropriate song telling of her love. Aawww, I thought you would let someone bump jodi off for me. lol Thanks for posting.
