Apogée 9
“What the fuck are you doing here? I told you not to come in here during coffeehouse hours.” Mark took off his glasses and threw them on the table,
“We want 150,000,” Kit moaned loudly.
“I already told you Mark it’s 50,000, I don’t have time for this shit—“ Kit moved to the door, Mark holding the door closed.
“I think you’ll be willing to pay 150,000…after all we are the only ones who know where Shane and Morales are hiding.”

Shane lay in one of the three bedrooms along the hall, trying to relax, which was practically impossible with her injuries. Shane tried to lay on her back but, the cuts which bled onto her shirt unbandaged and caused shooting pains through her body which caused her to tense which made her ribs hurt. The assassin tried laying on her side, but intense pressure on her ribs and hurt about the same as lying on her back. So the assassin lay on her stomach, she hated lying on her stomach, back exposed to whoever walked in the door.
Shane turned her head toward Carmen’s room, hearing sniffles and short quiet cries that tore into her heart. The assassin could only listen to Carmen’s sobs through their closed doors, she was frozen unable to move her body to comfort the bartender. The way Carmen cried reminded her of the orphanage, the crying Shane would hear at night. Cries for parents who’d died or moved on, cries for a life outside of the orphanage or new parents. The assassin remembered everything about that place, the way potential parents would look at her.
‘Are you a boy or a girl?’ was always the among the top three questions, sometimes it was said with a chuckle or a smile but it always hurt the same. What did it matter if she was a boy or a girl, she was a child without a home, without parents or family. Shane turned her head to the other side away from Carmen’s room hoping she wouldn’t have to hear the sobs anymore. But even with a pillow over her head she could hear the bartender’s cries.

“Bette? What are you doing here? It’s almost three a.m.” The brunette stood at Tina’s door empty-handed, kicking herself about forgetting to bring those flowers.
“I wanted to make sure we were still on good terms…the way you left, it seemed as if you were angry with me and I don’t want to mar our relationship before it begins.” Tina’s eyes shifted nervously, ushering Bette into to her home, standing face to face in Tina’s living room. Bette taking a moment to notice her surroundings,
“We’re fine Bette, if anything I owe you an apology. You reached out your hand in kindness and I jumped you like some horny teenager.” Bette smiled as Tina’s hands moved timidly at her sides and then through her own hair, the brunette stepped forward, the widow taking a step back.
“I know that you just lost your husband and I don’t want to further confuse you, but I’m not going to pretend like tonight was something that I didn’t want,” Bette moved to the door.
“I didn’t mean to startle you, I just wanted to make sure everything was alright between us and it didn’t seem appropriate to talk over the phone but…it’s getting late…I should leave.” Tina’s eyes widened as Bette began to walk toward the door,
“Well it’s so late, if you want to stay here tonight, I wouldn’t mind.” The brunette smiled that sexy way that made Tina’s stomach flip-flop, the widow forced her body into motion directing Bette down a hallway.
“The bedrooms this way,”

I can’t imagine how hard it is to come up with new plots every time, but I’m glad you continued this story. :D And yes, no arguing from me on forgiving Dana easily. I would totally do the same. :P Your Helena has the personality of S3, I really like that. :) She will be joining them soon? So Alice is gonna help Dana out. I hope Alice really is trustworthy and doesn’t take it to the paper. The slapstick duo has golden information in their hands…they could asked a lot more money (if they only knew). :) Shane had a troublesome childhood. I would like to explore that a little deeper. And I’m with theotherlife, why is Carmen crying? I saw you added me on IM. We’re in different time zones..but I’ll be there for a snippet. Don’t know if I can handle it tough? ;)
Good update!! I can’t wait to see what happens between TiBette…why was Carmen crying? Just a question…and what will happen if Alice’s cover is blown?? anyways, KEEP IT COMING!!!! Thanks!
Excellent update. I just wanted you to know that I did leave a comment the day you posted the previous update but it never showed up. So…you get 2 in 1 today because I don’t feel like doing 2 seperate comments. Sorry I guess I’m being a little lazy. I’m going to try and remember what I wrote for the last one. Here goes. Read it, loved it, want more soon. I’m really enjoying this story. I loved the last chapter due to all the Danish. I think that you write the characters very well. I’m actually able to picture the characters doing these things, which is really amazing. I loved it when Alice scratched here head with her pen and pushed her glasses up. It was something so little, but it fit her perfectly. I think you do a very good job with detail, without over doing it. Keep up the excellent writing. I can’t wait for more.I think I got it all…or most of it anyway.oh yeah! I loved that the “drive-by” comment stuck. I had to laugh about it. :)
guest bedroom or her bedroom??jeje
I’ve just caught up — this story is great fun.
i left one last time. but it didn’t show… thought i’d try again since i did sign up just to tell you that i’ve read your story.glad you didn’t take the hiatus.your story’s a rare harmony of the foreign and the familiar and i adore it very much.
Thank you very much for the name comment, I wish I made it up but I don’t know who did, great chapter though, post soon!!
Agent Alice – awesome! Your special person has great taste.
Now to which bedroom is Tina taking Bette to? I love that Dana trust Alice enough to bring her into the case. She not only trust her but allows her to voice her own opinion. Shane I believe is fighting her own feelings towards Carmen. I would love to see those two move closer together. As for Kit she just scares me. Is the reason that Bette had Marcus killed because he was stealing money from her? If that is true then maybe when Helena’s people go over his books they will find the missing money. Then maybe Tina will not look on Marcus as the once suitable mate for her. Great post.
Hope this doesn’t float off in cyper space.been having a time with comments Sometimes its hards to keep up with this story, makes me stop and think. So I go a wee bit slower and ,yes I understand it. I will read if you write. thanks
YOU RULE!!! Keep the updates coming please. I love this bette:)
I’ll have you know I left three lengthy comments the last time but I was rejected(guess I wasn’t worthy enough to get approved… makes me want to cry) Does that mean three strikes I’m out? Hope not. I know I’m fortunate to get to read all or most of your story ahead of time but I was tricked by the Tina/Bette daydream again. I love that you have Alice/Dana working together… I’m hoping for some of that wonderful tension. No offense but i hope you pull the plug on Jenny the circus freak. The woman drives me insane….and I would rather have you drive me crazy, lol. You have me curious as to why Carmen is crying. I love a late night visit… er Bette/Tina. My stomach does flip flops when I’m feeling that lovely sexual tension…you know what I mean? I’d say more but I’m so very tired…. and my mind has been occupied with so many torturous thoughts. Love the story and the way you make me feel!
yay! bette and tina goodness! I love this story cause it’s got my three favorite couples in it. and shane being an assassin=mad hottness
Ahh so nice and like it!
Awesome, Keep it coming :)
grat update, as usual. keep going with this fic, its good.
really cool, probably a stupid question but why is carmen crying? :(
Great story, lots of complexity which makes it interesting.
nice work closetdana, have to add more of that danish love though :P
I love your story and it is getting better and better. Such an ingenius story. And the frequency of posts makes me very happy, and helps me brighten up my dull days at work.BTW, I agree on the bit about Hawkgirl. But her feistiness and her aggressiveness is so enticing. And she is gorgeous. Reminds me a little of Carmen too…
So glad you decided to continue with this story. I don’t always comment, but I always admire and appreciate your work. Thanks Dana
Great Chapter Hun, can’t wait to read the next one =)
this story is ace, please don’t stop writing x
I’m usually solely a Sharmen supporter, but you’ve got me hooked onto your version of Bette & Tina, very nice.
Well I haven’t started from the beginning yet. lol I’m still trying to catch up on some other stories, plus I’m probably gonna fall behind due to spending the next month playing an online game hardcore. It’s a juggling act, but I promise to find time to start on this. :)
I’m so happy that you didn’t go on hiatus. I love this story and I love where you have taken it thus far and am still dying to see what happens next.
I would’ve really missed your story! I save it to read where it’s nice and quiet and I can give my full attention! Which bedroom is Tina leading Bette toward? Let us know soon! Thanks for writing.
It’s safe to say if I read the back installments, I’m in it for the long haul. ‘Nother chapter. And I definitely like where B&T are headed! ;)
Tina leading Bette to the bedroom.MMMMMM, oh this can be interesting. I like it.

This is a great update . . . please continue and soon as you can . . . LYLAS ;-D
Great update ClosetDana. Got to love the danish in this story. Could use some more. Please keep going.
Great update! The combination of strong, confident Dana and quick- witted Alice is so sexy…not to mention Alice taking note of her ass. I love it, it’s so Danish. Can’t wait for the next installment!
