After the Kiss: Chapters 1 & 2 A B&T Beginning
The movie producer walks over to the counter and asks for a latte. While she waits, she glances at the tables and sees Alice talking to a beautiful, exotic looking, long haired brunette.
After a few minutes, the barista delivers her latte and she takes a sip with curiosity, a slight smile appearing on her face. Holding her cup, she heads toward Alice and stops in front of her table, while Alice is still talking to the exotic brunette.
Alice – It was weird. I think I might write an article about it …
Tina – Excuse me …
The two women look up at her.
Tina – Hi, Alice!
She smiles.
Alice – Tina! How are you?
Tina – I’m great, and you?
Alice – Same old, same old …
Tina turns to the exotic brunette and smiles, extending her hand.
Tina – Hi, I’m Tina Kennard!
They shake hands.
Alice – Oh, I’m sorry! This is Marina Ferrer, The Planet’s owner.
Marina – Nice to meet you, Tina!
Alice turns to Marina.
Alice – Tina is a friend of Bette’s.
Marina – Oh …
Tina – This is a very nice place, you have.
Marina – Thank you! I haven’t seen you around before. Do you want to join us?
Tina – Oh no, thanks! I have to go. I just … wanted to say hi.
Alice – What brings you to our side of the world, Tina?
Tina tilts her head to the side and frowns in question.
Alice – Well, you know … West Hollywood … gay land …
The movie producer chuckles embarrassed and shakes her head.
Tina – I have a meeting nearby and stopped for a …
She points to her cup.
Tina – … cup of coffee!
Alice – Hope it’s not a business meeting!
Tina – We don’t have weekends when we are in production.
Marina – Which kind of production?
Alice – She is a movie producer!
Marina – Ah … nice!
Alice – This much work cannot be fun for Eric! How is he?
Tina – He is good!
Alice turns to the café owner.
Alice – Her boyfriend is a client of Bette’s.
Tina presses her lips together.
Tina – How is … Bette?
Alice – Oh, she is great! Also too busy if you ask me! You know her motto: hard work and beautiful women! What more can a woman want, right?
The producer gives a faint smile.
Alice – Well, actually, that doesn’t apply to you, does it?
Tina shakes her head smiling.
Tina – No. (pause) Well … I guess I’ll get going.
Marina – Are you sure that you don’t want to join us?
Tina – No … maybe next time. Thanks!
Marina – You’re welcome! Hope there will be a next time. We have a lot more than coffee here.
The producer nods.
Tina – Uh-huh! Bye Alice … It was a pleasure, Marina.
Marina – Same here!
Alice – Bye Tina! Say hi to Eric.
Tina – I will! Say hi to Bette … for me.
Alice – Sure … we won’t be seeing her this morning around here …
She turns to Marina in gossip.
Alice – Not if she took that hot blonde home last night!
Tina’s smile fades.
Tina – Bye!
She turns around and leaves, looking disappointed.
—————————————————
The Planet, morning: Tina gets into her car and sighs. She purses her lips and shakes her head.
Tina – Stupid!
What was she doing?! She doesn’t belong there! Like Alice said … their side of the world … gay land! Bette is gay! And looking like that, she can have any woman she wants in that coffeeshop! She probably has! Like hot blonde, whoever she is!
As if an innocent flirtation is going to mean anything to her! She has other lesbians in her life. And she takes them home, has sex with them. She doesn’t need to feel like a teenager whenever another woman gives her a silly kiss!
And what was she thinking?! She is straight! She can’t possibly belong in their world. No way! Absolutely not!
She turns on the engine and drives away looking upset.
(TBC)

Hi dbff,
Glad you are reposting this story!
I think i read it before a long time ago.
Always a pleasure to read Tibette stories and i am glad several writers come back to keep this couple alive in Fanfic land!
dbff says
Thanks, Bibi28! I could swear none of you had read it. Hopefully, there will be a little bit more on this version to entertain you all.

Nice beginning story. I have read several beginning stories of Tibette but not this one. They all have their individual characteristics and story lines from their meeting at the gallery until they become a couple. Since the bridge from meeting to becoming a couple was never covered in the original series, its wide open for a writers imagination and interpretation. I already like your Tina a lot. Can’t wait to see where you take us on this journey.. Post when you can.
dbff says
Alright, at least one person hadn’t read it! :D Thanks! I tend to post once a week and, at times, twice a week.

Hi DBFF:
Excellent story, very good start, I know there are many stories about the earring, but I know that this one because you are writing it, will be different and especial.
Poor Bette, she feels that she lost her gaydar, but indeed she didn’t, she felt that Tina was “in” and that was true, the situation is that Tina was perhaps too alienated with the straight life that she thinks she is a straight girl and even has a boyfriend, but her attraction for Bette and the feelings she starts developing talk by themselves.
Now, is Tina who has to find out what or who she really is and what she wants.
Bette, as usual, is making her life, but I believe she is very impressed by this Tina Kennard.
Great story, DBFF, please post soon.
