    Author Notes:

    Tina plans to come out at the Alphaville party. This is the Bette and Tina before their first breakup….

     

    Bette had turned on her charm to the highest level as she graciously met people and skillfully chatted the inconsequential type of chat that one does at these events.  She was so bright and so knowledgeable that people who had decided to meet her because she was Tinas lover, found that they had forgotten that as the conversation progressed.  

     

    As inconsequential as this type of social chat could be, there was always an undercurrent of business talk.  It was frosted over with social niceties, but it was business all the same.  Although she was careful not to bring up her business, Bette found that a fair number of people wanted to talk about art and specifically her gallery. 

     

    Tina was realizing that she was beginning to feel more and more comfortable.  She found, strangely, that she walked more upright and met peoples eyes more often.  She also knew that part of her feeling was selfish.  Many people looked at her differently, not because she was gay, but because she had hooked this incredibly beautiful and successful woman who was charming the hell out of the people she met.

     

    Bette, youre my trophy wife.

     

    Bette chuckled and grinned at Tina.

     

    Do you like that?

     

    I love it.

     

    Well, then, good.

     

    I was able to talk to some people about my production ideas.  And I have had some hints that I may be up for a promotion, Tina said with pleasure.

     

    Good!  When people say a party is not about business; its about business, Bette smiled.

     

    After fortifying themselves with punch, they headed again into the social swirl.  Mrs. Brovey was beckoning Bette again.

     

    Bette, could you give us your business card? Mrs. Brovey asked.

     

    Oh, Im sorry.  I dont have any with me, but if you give me your number, Ill phone.

     

    Mrs. Brovey produced a card and gave it to Bette.

     

    I know you didnt come here tonight for business, but business contacts are always good.  Mrs. Brovey said and Bette nodded supportively.  I realize why you came and everything seems to be working well.

     

    She patted Bette on the arm and disappeared out the French doors toward the pool.

    2. I really like seeing how Bette and Tina dealt with t’s coming out. I think you really nailed the estrangement that can happen when one person lives in fear of being found out and so closets the relationship. Nicely done – you write the humor and the connection of love so well. Such an antidote to the negativity of the show. Good to see you on TWOP as well. Thanks for contributing such a wonderful story to the fan fic world.

    4. Wow, Jan had some balls asking Bette if she would be interested in sleeping with her knowing about Tina. I can only imagine Bette’s reaction if it was Tina that had been propositioned. And about the ‘Boys signing T.O. This is exactly why JT NEEDS TO buy the Dallas Cowboys, to prevent bonehead moves like this!

    5. Lemme see if I can clarify what I meant before. I know that this B&T is the same from your previous story. What I meant was that I thought we were getting a flashback prior to the breakup in “What is Love?” Sorry if I wasn’t clear on that. ANYWAY at least the coming out is over. There will always be jerks who will make comments either to a person’s face or just around friends (I’ve done that and BOY did karma bite me in the butt lol). But there will also be people who won’t care and those are the people Tina definitely needs to be around at this time.

    7. Very well written, great job Pancha. Bette Porter as a trophy wife LOL, I think that they are each others trophies. The way her host talked, it shouldn’t effect her impending promotion, but I think that there might be a little jealousy amoung some of her colleages. Love this story, please continue :o)

    8. love the party… and i also agree tina will get all her promotions that are due her… and the trpphy wife was priceless… and we all know ay least one guy who was like that guy… they think they are gods gift to all women… love yor story… please continue

    14. I know that was very hard for Tina. Society sure make life very difficult. As Shane said soon it will be old news. But when you have Bette as a wife it will always be hard for it to be old news. Thank you for the story.

    15. Pancha, as always you never cease to amaze. You really did a great job with the fear Tina was having about coming out and Bette’s disappointment about being “hidden” from Tina’s professional life. The “coming out ball” was fantastic. Especially, Tina’s experience with the Oh-you-have-to-be-gay-to-say-no idiot. LOL. And Bette’s experience with the experimenting Jan. Love the gang’s coming out party. And by the way, Bette’s closing remark was right on the money. LOL. Thanks for the update.

    17. Way to step lightly Bette. Pancha, you make the world of L a better place to be. Thank you for still writing during an uninspiring S3. I hope you’ll post again soon. Now I’m off to take some tranquilizers before I watch tonight’s episode.

    18. OMG! I have been to these parties! Studio executives and all. HA! Thank you so much for putting all the different dynamics that really do go on into your story! Really well written! Please post again soon!

    21. In a creepy kind of way, I liked your sad ending more for Bette and Tina than IC’s, you’re right, it did make more sense, it explained so many things but in the end I’m a huge T&B fan so…. anyway, I’m liking this story and the way it’s been told.

    22. Thanks for the post pancha. What a treat to read about a happy B&T tonight. Glad your Tina isn’t getting a ton of poo dumped on her every week.

    23. they did it! i like how they deal with the coming out, this was easy for their cause Bette is such a sweet and inteligent woman and she is a big support for Tina. I enjoy read this i was waiting this chapter. thanks take care

    24. I figured Mrs Brovey for the one who would put the makes on Bette…could make the work situation sticky for Tina! Thanks for posting. I needed this!

    25. We all need a trophy wife like Bette.Some people don’t care other will try to let it pass over their heads Some will be a&&es. The men will say to them self she just never had a real man like me Thanks.hope you didn’t get rained out. We got about 7-8 inches thanks
