    “I thought I was just going before the opening.”

     

     

    “Nope…She wants you to be our escort if you’re okay with it.”

     

     

    Eli was considering it. “What would I have to do?”

     

     

    “Not too much honey. You’ll walk in with us, meet a few people, and you’ll have all your Aunts there. The only drawback is that on opening night Bette has to schmooze the people more then walk around and tell you about the art, so if after awhile you want to break off and check out the art with your Aunts you can or there’s always the option of going into Bette’s office if you’re tired, we’ll get you some food and I’m sure we can find someone to entertain you.”

     

     

    “How late do these things last?”

     

     

    “Pretty late but I think that James will be handling all the work stuff and closing up the gallery, but if it gets too late we can get you a ride home with your Aunt Kit. She mentioned that she was going to leave early.”

     

     

    “Okay I’m in but I don’t have anything fancy to wear.”

     

     

    Tina smiled at her son. “I know we’ll have to go shopping.”

     

     

    Eli frowned. “Okay but I get to pick my clothes.”

     

     

    Tina laughed, “Deal.”

     

     

    Tina looked down at her watch it was almost time for the safari ride, they drove right over after their talk and had a few minutes to spare so Tina decided to call Bette again. She had called when they got to San Diego but she had to leave a message, she tried again at lunch but still couldn’t get a hold of Bette. She was hoping to talk to Bette she was really getting worried.

     

     

    “T is that you?”

     

     

    Tina immediately knew something was wrong, Bette sounded so stressed out. “Yeah, what’s wrong babe?”

     

     

    “There is a situation here at the gallery that’s completely screwing up my day but I’m handling it.”

     

     

    “I hate that you’re having such a bad day.”

     

     

    “Thanks T but I don’t think I’ll be going home anytime soon.”

    2. Fantastic update once again! You really had Melvin down pat, and it’s awesome that Bette confronted him on his crap from the past! Can’t wait for the time B & T finally are able to come together…in that way, ya’ know? Hope school is going well and that you are able to post another nice long chapter very soon!

    3. So glad Bette had the back bone to tell Melvin how she felt.and what she expected from him where Eli and Tina are concerned. thanks so much for posting Post when you have time thanks

    4. Finally Bette stood up to her father. I know how difficult that is for Bette, but she now knows how important it is to have Tina and Eli in her life. Loved the little teaser that you gave us at the beginning of the chapter.

    5. Great update as always. Bout time Bette stood up to her father. Please make sure Bette keeps in mind that Tina can handle things, and be careful of not trying to handle things for her. I’m soooooooooooooooo looking forward to those two actually hooking up. Too cute about Bette being worried about Eli hearing.

    6. Amazing post once again Toribio!!!! I loved the little heated ‘thing’ on the couch between B&T, so cute and realistic…………and the things Bette told Melvin was spot-on, really great writing. BUUUUT now you can’t hold that NC-17 back much longer LOL and I can’t wait. Post soon, I’m addicted.

    9. Grrreat chapter! I was kinda hoping that Tina and Eli would be arriving during Bette’s tirade to her father, thus hearing how she stood up to him for her family’s sake, but well, whatever direction you’re taking is great with me, so… I thought you did a great job with Melvin. Leaving some hopes about his decision while still having him in character. Well done! Loved the teaser, that’s very promising for the real thing ya know…;) This ending has me look forward to the reunion between B&T, so please post soon (with all due respect for your school work, it’s great enough to have you share this wonderful story!) Okay, thanks a lot, Toribio!

    10. GREAT update, I like most am glad that Bette finally stood up to Melvin and I believe that Melvin will make the right choice. I can hardly wait until Tina finds out, oh yeah it will be “T” time for Bette. I am looking to Eli meeting Melvin and standing up tall for both his mom and Bette. Poor Bette is soooooo missing her family that are trapped in San Diego while she is home alone. PPS :o)
