The Saturday after the party Marina, Kit, Bette, and Emma were sitting in Marina’s office at the Planet finalizing the change of ownership of the café. Bette and Emma each had one third ownership along with Kit. Although heavily invested neither Emma nor Bette would be involved in the day to day business. That was wholly Kit’s responsibility but of course they would act as consultants since they each had extensive experience in managing their own businesses. For the time being Kit had agreed to keep Marina’s staff, menu, and décor during the transition to new ownership after which she would put her own stamp on the place.
Kit had always dreamed of owning a night club where musicians could come and jam in a casual relaxed atmosphere. The Planet would continue to operate as a café during the day but after the planned renovations be transformed into a night spot with live music, full bar, light menu, game room, and theme nights.
Marina planned to use the money from the sale to invest in a little café in her home town in the South of France. Jenny was working on a script version of her novel Lez Girls which was picked up by a French film company. The movie would go into production in a few months. They were both thrilled at their new endeavors and the start of their life together as a married couple.
The women finished their business and Marina left to tend to customers. Emma, Bette and Kit were in casual conversation about their plans when Shane, Alice, and Dana knocked on the office door. Alice was carrying several copies of a local West Hollywood newspaper. It was very popular among the gay community and not surprisingly articles about the happenings at the Planet had been featured many times. This issue talked about Marina and Jenny’s engagement and move to France as well as the change of ownership of the Planet to Kit Porter but the article and accompanying photos that
caught Alice’s attention was one about Tina and Helena. The headline read “Director of WeHo Youth and Family Center hooks up with wealthy benefactor for a night on the town.”
“Hey have you guys seen this?” Alice said as she handed copies to Emma, Kit and Bette.

Hi Bat, thank you for this update, I didn’t have time to comment much in the former chapter. In this one I think in Tina’s POV, she didn’t know the big problem between Helena and Bette, she was ignorant of most part of conflict Bette didn’t warn her (and again Bette is acting overprotecting and underestimating Tina, where is the hand of Emma?), but I think Tina is acting with jealousy and try to hook with the first woman in her way, that looks nice to her; what I find unfair again is that everybody (the gang and Kit) are treating her as if she was a real bitch, Bette wasn’t the only one suffering, Tina was and still is very lost; and at the moment Tina hasn’t slept with Helena they just met the same day (as I mentioned in a former comment, I was hoping that Helena could be the tool to bring Tina back from hetero-Ville), what makes me feel very bad is the gang behaving as Bette’s entourage; as Bette was emotionally sick, Tina was/ is and probably worst and she fell even deeper but who cares, she doesn’t have real friends and now even Henry is treating her “You could end up losing everything including Mikey and me”, isn’t it a way to force people to do something? Well Bat, it only rest me to tell you that I love your story and it’s wonderful that you are posting every day, I’ll be waiting willingly for the next chapter. Sorry for bugging too much. Thanks again
Even if BETTE has moved on (supposedly)wanting to know all that was said and who said what is defeating the purpose for me.TINA is falling for HELENA but only in a gratuitous way yet if not careful she will become her puppet as the signs are showing when she found out someone other than BETTE is in TINA’s life.Tread carefully TINA even tho you don’t want to alienate the family or BETTE you are doing yourself a disservice by not admitting you want BETTE,back,you are gay,and you still love her.TINA needs some alone time.HENRY needs to back up and away from this relationship as he has served his purpose.Why does BETTE not tell TINA before the others ?is she leaving the door open on them or she’s afraid this would really be the nail in the coffin for TIBETTE and this isn’t what she wants.THANKS,ps.
Tina really is stuck between a rock and a hard place – and she seems to be hell bent on removing herself from her ‘former’ friends and family as well as her ‘new’ one. And I think Bette’s right she would not have heeded any warning from Bette regarding Helena. Perhaps Tina really needs to hit rock bottom before she is coming to her senses – we will have to wait and see, I suppose.
Hopefully Tina’s not doing something stupid if she discovers that Bette’s pregnant and starting her family with Emma. But on the other hand that could be exactly what she needs to get closure too. As I assume she still holds on hope that she and Bette could get back together after she eventually knows what she really wants.
Thanks for sharing your outstanding talent with us and looking forward to your next post.
Really don’t like this version Tina! Very immature. Thanks
As you know I really like Tina in almost everything you write but this Tina is far from the Tina that I care about. In the last chapter she was really being spiteful and a tad hateful. Bette is right, if she had tried to talk with her and possibly now she would not listen. Even though I never liked Henry, through no fault of his own, I’m really glad that he talked with Tina and hopefully with helenas’ bitchy attitude, just maybe Tina is seeing a little what she is like. Can hardly wait until Peggy shows up and strips helena of the position of being over the foundation and whatever else she is going to do to her. Damn, that will be great!!! Tina will really be shocked when she discovers that Bette is expecting, that will be monumental in their newly forging friendship, and at least Tina realized what a mess she created by taking helbitch with her to the party and how she reacted to everyone trying to talk with her. Really do hope she will listen to Bette if and when Bette tries to talk with her. Just maybe when Peggy shows up and strips helena there will be no need for Bette to talk with her. She will learn firsthand what everyone was talking about. For Bette, I hope everything works out well for her with the baby since that is what she has always wanted. As you know, I would always want Tina and Bette together with a baby. Emma should be a very stabilizing force for Bette. Seems Tina has lost any chance she might have had for a renewed relationship with Bette. Thanks for posting.
Also loved what Kit and henry had to say to Tina, hope she will listen to someone before she is in over her head and gets hurt. Thanks.
