Then there was her bed. As soon as she had seen it again, she had felt the presence of other women there. It had never really bothered her before, but suddenly it felt wrong to expect Tina to share her bed, with the memory of the other women who had been there before her. The fact that she had not felt even close to the level of emotion she had with Tina was not the point. She wanted this to be right, she wanted this to be forever, and she wanted her slate wiped clean.
____________________________________________________________________
Tina once more looked at her watch, impatient that the time seemed to be dragging so slowly. She was beginning to regret her decision to make the arrangements for her art work herself. God she could be so stubborn sometimes she thought. She looked around her once again at the disarray she had created in her once tidy studio. Paintings were removed from their storage drawers, photographs littered around her as she debated which works to send across the world to the safe arms of Bette Porter. She envied them, for they would surely arrive long before Tina would be able to.
She imagined Bette standing over then boxes as they were opened for the first time, her delicate hands handling her work with a gentle touch as she removed them from their sturdy packaging. She pictured in her mind, Bette’s hands unwrapping layer by layer her prize in much the same way as she had purposefully undressed her on their last night together.
Tina shook her head to remove the unwanted memories from her mind. God she thought, If I carry on like this I will be a quivering wreck by the time I reach LA. Her body felt like it was doing “cold turkey” Surprising her with the intensity it craved Bette’s touch.
She walked slowly to the window, looking unseeingly at the midday sun beating down on the lush landscape. She sighed sadly, realising that for the first time, there really was somewhere she would rather be than here.
Her attention was grabbed by the opening of the compound gates, and the arrival of her good friend Vual. He had been a frequent visitor since Bette’s departure, his ability to arrive exactly when she needed him the most unsettling her somewhat.

This is a fun chapter…glad to see more…and more…and more
where have you been Ms tbsaver…….just leaving us dangling for what seems to be weeks :) ? Great chapter as ever!
tb sweetie, i heart you. hopefully this carpenter is not nailing anyone. heehee. you made a transitional chappy full of life, expectations, hope. dayum girl, you are the shiznit. i loved this chappy. please post soon. what time is it there. ;)
oh i forgot, CROO and i have compared notes. shes f’n funny.
Completely AWESOME, charming, loving and just plain dang wonderful. I can’t help myself T. I just love this story. Sorry I’ve been gone for a while. But i’m back now.
TB!! I like, I like very much. Great update.
A gold star…. hmh… don’t think so……………… but what about 2 GOLD STARS or would 2 PLATNUM STARS be better? ;-)
Over here right now a full tank of gas for the Land Rover would be worth GOLD (maybe a prepaid gas card for your holiday?) .. Yes we know we have been spoiled with gas price over the years on this side of the pond.
You know,” He continued, “A nice room, with a nice view, and a proper bed………………………..and a telephone. What is the time difference between here and LA?” – Vual is a very smart man!!!
Well I’m sitting here with a silly grin …. Another wonderful chapter in a great story.
Next chapter soon PLEASE!! (I couldn’t stop my fingers from asking for the next amazing chapter…. I know you are busy but……I’m just a SAP and love this story)
Vual: to the batmoblie tina.
Tina: can I play with the buttons
OK enough of that, that’s me trying to be funny.
WTF no animals?? I’m so going on strike until I get some animals!!
And what’s up with Bette’s room she needs to have some leopard print sheets and some fake palm tress, Tina lives in the bushes of Africa she doesn’t want to see neutral colors.
To show off her art collections WTF. Well, I know when I bring someone home it’s not to show off my art collection. OK so maybe I don’t have any art but that doesn’t matter.
OH and here we go with the carpenter, where to start…..
(hangs head low) T are you trying to start drama, I mean drama is kick ass, but I though you were going for loving mushy stuff?? Well, just make the carpenter look like angelina jollie and maybe I will forget about the drama and lack of animals in your story.
Shout out to albeez
Cute, cute, cute. Vual is the best! No, wait…you’re the best for making this wonderful story.
So, that make’s you #1, CR00 is #2 – for making me laugh until my roommate gets worried, and Vual is #3…
LOVIT!!!
once again another wonderful chapter. I can’t wait to see the girls together again. we miss this story while it’s in progress..thanks for the post
tbsaver….I have a concern. Wouldn’t it be wise for Bette to tell Tina the original purpose for her trip to Africa to begin with….before Tina arrives in LA? I would hate for Tina to think that Bette’s love for her was just a sham, just so she could procure an artist for the CAC. Shouldn’t she tell Tina before hand? Don’t know why that thought just popped into my head. Another excellent chapter!
niceeeeeeeee…transition chapter before the real LA!! yay..bring it on..!
Aww I missed you too, tbsaver! My vacation was fabulous, thanks for asking. Well I guess respite is defined as temporary. You’re such a tease! lol
I’m glad you’re having trouble keeping them apart too! Hehe It’s very considerate of Bette to make all these arrangements for Tina. Vual is such a nice guy! I’m glad Tina has him right now. Otherwise she’d go crazy! I’m looking forward to their phone call!!
Good to see you Tbsaver, this is nice chapter and can’t wait to see Tina in LA. Ok please post soon, thanks!
just caught up on several of your AMAZING chapters . thank u, thank u, thank U! i simply love this story … i’ve always wanted to go on safari (i’m a photographer) and u have teased my desires to the hilt. Hope your move went well . so looking forward to the upcoming chapters and LA :)
Putting Tina’s picture so she sees it every morning was just so cute. She’s got it bad.
She’s the consumate planner. What better person to have in charge of getting the house ready for Tina? Plus, she obviously has the connections. But, did you say…carpenter? Oh, please not her.
The fact that Bette wanted a new bed was an interesting twist. You never fully realize all the history that it holds, until it truly matters.
Niiiice comparison of Bette unwrapping Tina’s artwork and her undressing her. The visual was, uh…yeah. It’s all about the details.
The way you described Tina’s overwhelming feeling of packing away a life’s worth of accomplishments was very vivid. Amazing how powerful putting your life into boxes and crates can be.
I want a Vual of my own! He is one amazing man. She is going to miss him tremendously. Wise, tender and sweet man. Such a great friend.
After meeting Tina,Bette forgot what she went for. Hey she [Bette] had enough repect fpr Tina to get a new bed. starting fresh with a fresh bed. sound good to me. I like neutral color. they are cool and anything goes with it. thanks
What a wonderful quote…and so, so true, as we are proving every day! You can paint a picture for me anyday T!!
K
WONDERFUL!!! I love this so much. Can’t wait for T to get to LA.
Hey TB that was really wonderful chapter..T&B are really going to be climing the walls for each other…absense make the heart grow fonder.
Thank you.
