A Deeper Song, Post 15
“Is that what you want to do?” Kit bristled. She liked Fred and Catherine but suddenly there was another element to the equation that felt like an intrusion.
“I don’t know.” Bette sighed. ‘I want this child to have a connection to Rosanna’s family and this is part of the tradition. We never got to talk about stuff like this before she died.”
The silence at the table grew as each woman sorted through feelings. No one wanted to break the tightness of the family unit they had created over the last seven months. The years before laid the foundation but the pulling together this time made them a true family.
Shane, Alice, Kit and Tina reached a silent consensus, to give the child the best of both worlds they would support Fred and Catherine’s proposal.
“Do you think Rosanna would have agreed to this?” Tina asked gently.
“She talked fondly of her governess” Bette smiled. “I think she would have.”
“Then it’s settled.” Alice declared. “We all have to approve of the final choice though.” She threw in.
“Of course.” Bette chuckled. “They want a family profile to select the best match. I’ll e-mail you all the forms.”
Helena walked in with Leigh at that moment and seeing the crew assembled was about to make an about face. Bette feeling magnanimous today called out to them.
“Helena, Leigh would you care to join us?”
Helena after her initial shock at the invitation agreed. She swore to herself that Bette Porter Montclair was one of the most unpredictable people she had ever met. There was still plenty of food and hot coffee and after filling her plate she froze. This would be the perfect opportunity for Bette to poison her she thought. She looked quickly at Bette before lifting the fork to her mouth. The enigmatic smile that Bette gave her made her pause. She saw Leigh dig into her food with a relish and once she convinced herself that Bette did not have time to doctor her plate she let her own fork travel to her mouth.
“This is scrumptious.” Helena declared with far more bravado than she felt.
“I need to take a walk.” Bette declared after Helena and Leigh had finished eating. The gang was in rare form and Bette needed some time to herself.
“Do you want company?” They all asked loathe to leave her alone, even though she was definitely on the mend.
“No. I’m good.” She glanced at Tina, who separated herself from the gang to speak with her privately. Tina walked her to the door of The Planet. “I was wondering if you could have Denise pick me up on the other side of the park in an hour? There is someplace I’d like to take you.”
“Sure.” Tina responded puzzled by the mystery. “I’d be happy to walk with you, Denise can meet us there.”
“Thanks, but no, will I see you in an hour?”
‘Of course.” Tina reassured her. “Look for me by the north gate.” It was a spot that they often met in the past.
Bette turned and made her way down the block towards the park.

First, I don’t believe it. At any rate great chapter and getting Bette back into the swing of things at the Planet is good for her and Tina. It can start being like old times again. Slowly but surely Bette will mend and find that she still loves Tina and still wants to be with her. Hope Ro’s parents don’t insinuate themselves too deeply in Bette and the baby’s lives, after all Tina will be with her and they all need to be together as a family. PPS
I don’t know if id be comfortable leaving Bette alone…PPS
Hmm. I too hope Rosanna’s parents don’t make things awkward. I have a feeling they wouldn’t though. And I hope nothing drastic, like Bete going into premature labor in the park, happens. Thank you for the post, kelika
I think someone should discreety follow Bette, maybe Denise. I would think that if Ro was so wealthy, that Denise would be more than a driver, but also a bodyguard. Does Bette have any concerns that now that she has all this wealth, she needs to protect her family a little more? Indeed, if you give a mouse….(lol).
another great post ! hope you post again very very soon!! i’m sorry to see this story come to an end, sure we can’t convince you to continue?? pretty plz ;0)
What a wonderful story! You’ve struck a chord w/i me. I just love this Bette and Tina, so tender and caring and the whole gang is truly like a framily. I certainly wouldn’t object to another posting today (if you can). Thanks.
Maybe Bette is going to say some kind of second goodbye to Ro. Please don’t let anything bad happen to her!
Oh well I can sense the end drawing ever so closer, it has been a very good story thus far. Full of all sorts of emotions and for that I thank you for sharing this with us. Well done and please post soon.
Thanks for the B&T lovin! So funny, Helena thought Bette would poison her. Love it!! PPS!
I’m torn: I hate to see this story end but I can’t wait to see how it wraps up!
maybe shane should follow on the sly… anyway i love bette and tina back together and i hope they stay that way… as far as the nanny.. i have a feeling between bette and tina… they won’t need a nanny… they do be there for each other and the baby… love this… PPS
Love this story – a sequel, perhaps. Please.
WOW!!! I do think Bette needs sometime for herself. Great Chapter!!!! Thank you
I’ll bet Tina follows Bette out of fear of her being alone. I know I would. Great post Kelika! Thank you!
Let the poor woman take a walk. She didn’t say I’ll see you later, she said have Denise meet us in an hour I want to show you something. Like I’ve said before, I wouldn’t have wanted Rosanna to die so that Bette and Tina can be together, but lets be real together is where they belong, and how ironic that Bette is having a boy. Tina will always protect and take care of Bette as will Bette with her, its time to accept what all those around them already know including the doctor. They’re destiny was set long ago, they’ve just had a few bends in the road they had to over come.
Good chapter, Love B&T, funny at Helena, she though Bette gonna poison her lol!
Well K seems like they can’t get enuff of your B and T…lol.
