Chapter 29
Bette took a deep breath, and steadied her nerves, closing her eyes,
and whispering a little prayer as she lifted the heavy plastic cover
and walked into the room that was once her beloved study.
The first time she had made the mistake of venturing into the room was
a few hours after the work had started, and what she saw had shocked
her. There was dust and debris everywhere. The room
resembled something out of a war zone, an enormous gaping hole where
the far wall used to be. The stylish small window that she had
looked out of so many times whilst deep in thought, gone forever.
Dispatched to the growing pile of rubble carelessly thrown on her
perfectly manicured lawn.
Women were busily destroying all but the bare framework of the room,
and ripping up floor boards for all they were worth. She can
remembering shaking her head, and wondering if her home would ever
recover from the team of women working frantically to turn the room
into the dream studio she had painstakingly designed with the help of
Annie Briggs, the Carpenter and lead hand of the project, and her
artist friend Ana Gomez. In fact it was only the picture in her
mind of Tina’s face when she saw her new “work space” that kept Bette
going through the trauma of it all.
So it was with a considerable amount of trepidation that she slowly
opened her eyes to take in the transformation made to her study.
Ana and Annie were standing in the middle of the room, champagne bottle in hand and three glasses, waiting for Bette’s arrival.
Bette gasped as walked over to them, turning round and round as she
surveyed the room before her. To the left stood workmanlike
cabinets, to hold the chemicals Tina would need to develop her
photographs, a sink and the developing unit, an enlarger, and other
machines that Bette didn’t recognise.
Bette stepped further into the room as she looked around her. The
main wall opposite her held cabinets similar to those she had explored
in Tina’s studio. They were chest height, and instead of having
draws that pulled out, the whole cabinet front slid out on sturdy
runners, exposing a vertical filing system that would hold far more
than Tina’s basic cabinets had. Above them was a black fabric
covering, not unlike felt, which covered the entire wall space.
It was littered with small metal triangular pieces with a Velcro
backing, that could be attached to the corners of photo’s
enabling them to be placed anywhere on the wall.

When it comes to Bette and Tina the lioness comes out in me.
Great chapter !!! The friendship between Tina and Helena is a bit weird to me right now but it seems ok…as lng as the rosbiff stays out of B/T way !!!
Good chapter. Helena and Tina is good friend and Bette didn’t know Helena is Peggy’s daughter. Ok let see what’s next, thanks!
god I hate helena and she hasn’t even done anything yet! Thank you for posting and have you seen my buddy albeez…I haven’t been able to find her this weekend.
Hmmm…verry interesting…
oh no, what’s going on now? first mel, now peggy? yes, i know from your name you’ll be good to our girls, but why am I prepared for drama? great as always, so now will we have some loving?
yipeeeeee! what a fantastic treat . i was off to sleep and just checked for the hell of it and there you were … god, i just LOVE this story so much . honestly, i wish you wrote for TLW. I believe the storyline(s) would be so much more coherent! Get some rest so you can post SOON! thanx
tbsaver!!! Soo glad you’re writing again. Sorry that it took me a little while to catch up. I’ve been having computer problems. I’m so glad that B&T are finally together again!!! Seems like it’s going to be a bumpy journey though with Helena and Mel in the picture. Thanks for writing again. P.S. – Congrats with your personal life!! I wish you both a ton of luck and happiness. You deserve it. :)
Oh I smell drama!!! Helena is trouble. please post soon.
TB — you are a rascal and a half. wonderful to have you back, at least you’ve given helena a sense of humour – the scriptwriters seem to have missed that out for some reason. but i don’t trust her — but as i trust you we’ll go with that for now. great as always
This just gets better and better with every chapter you write….I’m so looking forward to the next one, so don’t let us hang to long…PLEASE :o))
T you bring that bloody brit in to the story and what do you expect.?????excellent job as usual. didnt think youd get them together quite this quck but so glad that you did. hmmm. drama coming????fergz – just catching up honey.
Uh…hmmm…”bloody Americans,” huh T? LOL…Bette is in a ton of trouble, and of course, you know it is Helena that is going to make sure that happens!!! But, thinking about it…you can’t really blame Helena can you, cause in the end, Bette brought on any trouble herself, didn’t she? I adore your writing T. By the way…loved the windows!!
MATE!!!!!!!! you want some vicidon for those headaches, could wash it down with some wine????Here I am, when you said “bloody americans” I thought you was calling me out. So you “fucking brits”, why am I the last to know your posting?? hmm you better have a good reason or else!! LOL wow I should calm down don’t need my BP to raise, after all it’s just a FF. The window was mad cool, even though it took 2 times of reading that part to understand what the fuck was going on, lol kidding. so my only question is how thick was the glass?? and you know it ain’t cool unless its bulletproof. Kinda thinking there could be some rage maybe even some flying bullets coming from Hella and maybe candy ass cause I think she was supposed to be the carpenter??
Oh I forgot to say something to you TBsaver…I still trust you – even aften this chapter :o)) But go easy on Bette, she means well…
Bette should have told T the truth before. She needs to before Helen-a finds out and tells T.
whats going on?..y did Bette turn pale?!?!?!?!…..pls post soon!!!
Oh, come pn! You can trust me! whisper in my ear. I wonder what is going on with Bette and Peggy. I miss you post when you diappear but they are always well worth the wait.
