All the Small Things–Chapter 8
“Look, Bette, you’ve been extolling her virtues since you met her,” Jenny added. “Why don’t you just get it over with and ask her out? Your paranoia isn’t going to do you any good.”
“I’m not going to do that,” Bette said. “It’s going to ruin a good friendship.”
“Yeah, along with the rest of our sanity,” Dana quipped, as she entered the door. The tennis player dropped her gym bag near the bedroom door and sat next to Max, “Tina out?”
“On a date.” The rest of the group replied glumly. Bette finished a fourth can.
“And now you’re drinking your misery away?” Dana asked Bette. “Come on.”
“What did I tell you, Bette?” Alice asked. “Whining your sorry ass now, huh?”
“Oh, shut up, Al.” Bette said, halfway through another can of beer.
Tina broke off from the heavy embrace she was wrapped in and woke up to the sounds of an insistent doorbell ringing like crazy. She had a fun night out last night with Henry, one of the scriptwriters working for the studio. He was smart, handsome, and charming. They had dinner at the Bistro, and they watched a movie before they headed back to the house. He was really something else. He was gentlemanly, and he just talked to her for hours and hours about the things they had in common. There was this vibrant aura that she could sense ten feet away. Just like Bette. What the hell, Kennard, Tina thought, were you just thinking about your housemate romantically? She’s never going to go for you. Besides, you’re straight, remember?
Speaking of Bette, where did her housemate disappear off to? She did mention a night out with her friends, but she didn’t come back and there hadn’t been a call from anyone yet. Was she missing? Did something happen to her? Where was Bette? Tina rounded up a list of possible scenarios for her to consider as she fastened a robe and went over to open the door. Once she opened the door, she saw Alice, Shane, Max, Dusty, Helena and Jenny carrying a limp Bette. The brunette obviously passed out, and the other girls were having difficulty carrying her. She was like dead weight to them, and from the looks of it, she had a lot to drink the previous night.

In four each should be able to see how the other feels. Tina is always giving Bette a hug. Did she ever just keep her in her arms and kiss her. Do we call them women of steel? Love this,story Post soon.
It’s like one big waiting game alright, but I’m enjoying the journey. PPS.
Really enjoying this story..something’s gotta give, and soon!
Keep it coming I am enjoying the story
u didn’t disappoint me afterall they both had an eiphany. they just need to talk but guess they’ll just get drunk and then fall into each other’s arms…seems like they are both avoiders…who need their friends to do an ‘intervention’…pps
Great story.I cant help but remember a friend crush of my own with the whole drunk as a skunk scenario:-)cant wait to see how long they can keep it secret and if they will end of telling each other about their feelings …..in rehab;-)
great chapter… please post soon…
I love your story!
wondering what the next installment will bring us. Enjoying it!
Amazing story! PPS!!!
You have drawn a wonderful parallel between the two of them. Both too fearful to take the next step. I can’t wait to see who finally is courageous enough to take the risk. My bet is on Tina…PPS!
oh im ever so giddy. more?
Yep, they both need to just spit it out! Bette needs to take Tina 3 Tylenol’s for her hangover and have a chat. Love this story!
Somebody’s got to make the first move…who will it be? Love this story! PPS
Nice update sounds like they need the gang’s intervention to get them together! :)PPS
Maybe Alice just needs to blurt out what she thinks and make Bette and Tina deal with the consequences. :)
Someone need to do something!
