"Hello?" She answered, trying to sound as calm and not out of breath as possible.
The voice on the other end was tense as it sounded in Tina’s ear, "Tina, where are you? The meeting with Henry Berman is in fifteen minutes. We have to have you there."
Tina slapped her head and leapt off the bed, carting the phone with her into the bathroom. "Can you stall for a few minutes? I swear I’ll be there, Mack, I’ve had a horrible morning. I’ll be there in no more than forty minutes, okay?"
"Hurry up. I’ll stall."
Tina let out a sigh of relief as she hurriedly applied her make up. "Thanks so much, Mack, and I’m so sorry for this."
"No problem. We all have our days. But Kennard?"
"Yeah, Mack?" She asked as she finished applying her lipstick. She ran into her bedroom and ripped open her closet, searching for something similar to a decent outfit.
"You owe me."
"Consider it owed, friend. I’ve got to go." She pressed ‘end’ and tossed the phone blindly behind her. She cringed when she heard it land on the floor. Whatever, she thought as she pulled out a black power suit and a Mediterranean blue linen blouse. She threw on the clothes and realized she didn’t have time to dry her hair. Instead, she put it up in a French twist with a slight fringe at the top. After thinking a moment, she decided to lose the blazer and go only in her skirt and blouse. She slipped on a pair of heels meant only for a woman who sat at a desk all day, and headed out, grabbing her purse and keys on her way.
This was turning out to be a wonderful day.

"Hey, Porter, you in there?" Alice snapped her fingers in front of Bette’s face, bringing her out of the daze she was in.
"Well, that was unnecessary." Bette replied, sipping her coffee nonchalantly, acting as if she hadn’t been staring into space for the past three minutes.
"The ***** it was." Alice broke off a piece of the croissant sitting in front of her and ate it. "What’s up with you, Bette? You aren’t your normal alert self. Marina slip somethin’ into your coffee?"

Hey I just read all the chapter and WHOA! you got a really Wonderful Story I Love it Please continue and I can’t wait to read more of this Thanks.
Oh, baby, this is just soooo good! You’ve got me wrapped up in every single stunningly-written detail!! This is rich, rich, rich!!! I was even entertained by Bette’s introduction: Tina…Marina…Marina…Tina. Reminded me of Letterman’s classic: Uma…Oprah…Oprah…Uma. But I have a really weird way of free associating sometimes…not to mention an odd sense of humor. goddess, don’t stop writing this any time soon, okay? Unless of course school gets in the way. Then you’re excused.
To answer your question with a question: didn’t anyone ever tell you it was impolite to ask a lady her age? :) Let it suffice to say for now that I’ve seen thirty and I’m not dead yet!
Keep up the heavenly writing, goddess!
(I hate writing in this little box. I can’t see what I’m doing…where I’ve been…or where I’m going.)
Great chapter and story can’t wait for the next post!!!
oh yes this so good i love its directness or at least Tinas!…lol not too shy so far i love it but as you pointed out to me in your authors note why would she be when its someone as beautiful as Bette…lol really enjoying this… more please!
lunch was wonderful. Made you wish you were there watching it happen. ; ) Oh..and all the talk about age..don’t make us over 30 women feel too old. Post another soon…love reading it.
Great update. Just finished reading the last 3-chapters. Between,short meetings at the gallery, and lunch I don’t know if these two can take much more of each other before they burst. Have to say great line, “Were all straight until were not”, love it. But whats up with the age thing. Looking forward to your next update. Careful with the neighbors.
oh i really liked that. hmm what to do about the eric problem. well pleae let me know soon. thanks.
Good chapter. Those 2 are so cute, and they need to be together soon as a couple, love it. Ok please post soon, thanks!
Well talk about lunch….huummm….goddess. What a nice update and such a wonderful lunch with our two girls, it almost sent shivers down my spine. Post soon
Hmmm….my spine wasnt the only thing shivering…..(Breathe snQQpy… Breathe)
My thoughts…..
Well, this is the first story I read with Bette “cracking her back.” I didnt know she knew how to do something like that. After reading your description of the act, I was ready to jump on my bed and give it a try; but then I was afraid I may beak something…LOL
It has always been hard as hell for me to picture Tina in “power suits.” Thats more of a Bette thing.
”We’re all straight until we’re not -_- I love this!
”You got it, Mack Daddy.” -_- Alice has been making cracks like this to Bette for as long as I can remember. Is there a stud in Bette dying to come out and only Alice knows about? Or is Alice actually making cracks at Bette’s “A” type personality?
hugging Tina’s hips with authority -_- Now I know how to describe that hot little number hanging in my closet once I put it on.
Tina could’ve sworn she saw the entire room light up when Bette smiled back at her. -_- This made me think of that commercial where the female schoolbus driver smiled and cars started crashing from the glare…LOL
Just loves this story – keep’em comming…
make me laugh when i you wrote about how Tina broke into hysterical laugh at the balcony. Sometimes i do wonder back the silly things i do during the day..and laugh it all out. LOL~ need some release i guess? Wonderfully written..post soon!
really nice!
nice that their taking is slow !!!!!!!!!!!!! Who is watching them
