And it Started With a Phone Call Chapter 19
"Have a good day," Alice said.
"You guys too," Tina replied. "Bette, I’ll see you whenever you can get there, okay?"
Bette waved goodbye at Tina’s retreating form and sat back to the inquisitive look of her friends.
"Bette, I know I don’t really know you very well," Dana began as she took a sip from her mineral water. "But that woman has you wrapped around her little finger."
"And I’m more comfortable there than I ever thought possible," Bette mused, still watching Tina as she left.
"Bette, I thought you were concerned about her taking time from the gallery," Alice said. "Considering she was at your house last night, and you’re going to her house tonight you don’t seem to be all that concerned any longer."
"Not that it’s any of your business, Alice, but last night, she basically came over and we went to sleep," Bette explained. "By the time she got to my place, I had already put in an 11 hour work day, so I had no guilt whatsoever at relaxing with her once she arrived."
Alice felt as though she had been put in her place.
"I’m just saying Bette, you were the one freaking out the other day about how she was going to take time away from the gallery. Don’t complain to me about things you’re not willing to change."
"I know you’re right Alice, I’m simply trying to find a way to make everyone happy," Bette said with a sigh.
"Did you say I’m right?" Alice thought she must have heard wrong. "And since when have you aspired to make everyone happy? I thought you wanted to make Bette Porter successful and happy was merely a by-product of that success."
"It’s different this time," Bette admitted. "There you have it. I have found someone I actually like spending time with, more than I enjoy promoting my own gallery."
"Good news Bette, she has just as busy a schedule as you do," Alice observed. "You won’t have to worry about making time for her. Sounds like she might have to make time for you."
"Well, Alice, I can be charming you know," Bette said. "I’m going to romance her so much over the next few weeks, I’ll have her spinning in circles trying to make time for me." She pulled her phone out of her purse. "And it starts right now."

Romances, advances, charms are in the air. Hmm… it just gets better. loved this.
Your writing is nothing short of sheer perfection! And the last few chapters have been so romantic! The somatic responses your writing elicits make this story just oh so pleasurable. It’s virtually a paradise of sensuality. Thank you so much.

Wonderful chapter. I love when it’s sweet and happy, just can’t get enough.
Romance full tilt, wonderful. Your poise in writing this story, makes it so captivating and contemporary. A pleasure, thank you.
Thank you for allowing me to dwell in their lives. The day-to-day details are not mudane. They are so soul-satisfying!
nt just a *sigh* but a *contented sigh*. that was wonderful. yuor writing is so expressive and thoughful. i love mundane. where would we be without mundane. its the cement of life. thanks ever so much.
I love to see the romance of this new budding couple…
Whenever I read this story I always have this big smile across my face. It’s just so romantic and beautiful. I love it! And the whip- hot!! Can’t wait to see all these plans Bette has
I would say that love is in the air!!! Please continue soon.
Nice and sweet, it is going to be great to see as Aretha would say “Who’s zooming who”. It is great to see Bette willing to be open and ungarded about her feelings for Tina. Please post again soon.
It’s the stolen glances, the knowing smiles and the light touches that make the ordinary take on an extra ordinary sweetness. It’s their playful sexual innuendo that is making their senses even more tuned into each other.
I’m getting the feeling that Alice is either jealous or simply just doesn’t know when to stay out of other people’s business. Glad Bette put her in her place.
ahh plans…I like the sound of that ;-) Wonderfully written as always. Thanks.
That was a fantastic chapter. I love the banter between those two, and then when you add Alice, well just awesome. Can’t wait till dinner tonight
awesome- loving it!
Okay, you know I’ve loved your writing from the very beginning, before your fancy award icon and all. But I need to have a reality check here! Unless your Dana secretly won a jock scholarship to Harvard, went, got smart, met Bette and Tina and then somehow tragically suffered some brain damage, I cannot imagine the following comment coming from her mouth:
“‘It’s such a treat to watch the captains of industry sway their power over the masses,’ Dana replied, facetiously.”
Do I have a point, or do I have a point?
I’m still a die-hard fan and love every word you write! xxoo M.
Well written chapter..I especially liked all the foreshadowing.
Always a pleasure to read. Thanks.
Seems like we have two Ladies that are going to walk on air all day. Romance is in full bloom/ thanks
Loved this. Can’t wait for their plans to be put into action!!
I love the romance and “mundane” (as you put it) thanks and post soon
