Rose nods and makes her way to the other side of the nurses desk. Tina approaches Peggy’s door and knocks. She waits a moment before entering and approaches her bedside checking her vitals on the monitor before focusing on her pale gaunt face.
“You don’t have to stare at me Tina dear. I’m sure this isn’t the first time you have seen your patients looking like death warmed over “Peggy says without opening her eyes
“How did you know it was me?” Tina asks smiling as Peggy opens one eye and looks at her
“Darling your mere presence is enough to make me instantly feel better. Although you weren’t kidding about how I would feel after that first round of chemotherapy. It has been completely horrid”
“I’m so sorry Peggy. I knew this was going to be a very difficult and tedious journey”
Peggy slowly nods and closes her eye “Don’t under estimate my resolve Tina darling. I have all the fight in me to meet this head on. You just keep pumping that poison into me and let me do the rest”
“Well about that. I’ve put off your next treatment until Thursday to allow your body to recover some more. Your vitals aren’t quite where I want them yet and I have switched you to a liquid diet to help curb the nausea and vomiting”
Peggy wanted to protest but was too tired to argue and just nodded
“Very well” was all she could manage to say and felt Tina’s hand on her shoulder
“You get some rest ok. I’m on call tomorrow so they will page me if I’m needed. I’ll be going out to see the site for the research facility with the architect” Tina says and turns to walk toward the door
Peggy opens both eyes upon hearing what Tina said “Wait?..Who is the architect dear?”
Tina turns to see Peggy with both eyes open and steps back toward her “Bette Porter”
Peggy musters enough strength to smile “Bette? You’re kidding?”
“Wait? You know her?” Tina asks curiously watching Peggy nod
“She designed two of my corporate buildings in New York. She’s phenomenal. Clearly her work has been recognized nationally if you found her”
“Actually it was the hospital board that hired her to design the new medical center on Westwood and as a stipulation she would design my cancer research facility “

I’m really liking this…. So Tina and Bette are married to their work…. funny banter. Really funny when Bette says that the kiss on the cheek might make Tina spouse jealous especially in her presence.
They are beginning to be attracted to one another… both professionals. I just hope that they do have time to have a real relationship which is binding and long term. With Tina’s promotion to Chief of Staff and a new research center, there are going to be high demands on her time. And Bette just beginning a new architectural firm is going to be time consuming as well. And they are both so young, with many prime working years ahead. This works for some, but it is difficult. I hope they do well…
Thanks for this chapter… love the update… love to see more….
Thanks so much Martha3128!
It does seem a stretch for Bette and Tina to build a relationship when they are in a sense married to their work. Really it’s because they have nothing on the outside worth trying to balance their lives until now. Without giving too much away I think you will enjoy how they go about trying to build their relationship and incorporate it into their busy lives.
Thanks again!
Liking this story. Alice is so funny. Calling them TiBette and shipping them is just hilarious. “Alice shakes her head “Never!..I’m totally shipping you two..Long live TiBette!” Just great! And Dana is in the story. I hope Peggy is going to make it. Somehow I think Helena may make an appearance. Is she does – stay away from Tina! Maybe Bette will go visit Peggy. Tina and Bette are really cute together. Very sweet. I like your version of them very much. They both seem well suited for their professions. Maybe they can fit a little love and romance in around their busy lives? Alice already sees it. Looking forward to more.
Billy! Thanks for the comment!
I can assure you that Helena- if she does appear in this story- will have nothing to do with Tina other than to deal with her as her mother’s doctor. I hope that eases your anxiety..lol
A very different and interesting Storyline which I am really enjoying.
Looking forward to TiBette forming a great relationship alongside their very busy working lives.
Thanks for posting

I have been trying to catch up on your story. I will comment when I get to the latest chapter but I’m really enjoying it.
I just absolutely love and adore this story so very much!! I really love the stories that don’t follow along the lines of the show. This story and your writing is so very talented and I’m just really anxious about where u are going to take them. Please keep writing and posting or else u will be truly missed.
Thanks for the lovely comment!
I’m so pleased you are enjoying the story and I can assure you I’m not going anywhere. This story is completely finished so I will be posting a chapter weekly until the last one. I’m already working on a sequel and if everyone wants it then I will continue.
Keep ’em coming, jlr. I vaguely remember reading a few chapters some time ago. Please continue, I really enjoy this story.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks kiwipit!
I appreciate you coming back to this story and are here for the ride!
Thanks so much for reading and commenting. I look forward to your thoughts as well as everyone else’s as we go along!
Love this story
This is a fantastic story!!! I read a it when you posted it before. I loved it then too.
I am not a Alice fan but in this story she is hilarious.
The teasing and fun Bette and Tina had was a pleasure to read. Tina already trust Bette enough to tell her about Jacob, a good sign. And they share their Birthday, who would have thought about that, they have a lot in commen and i am with Alice, i root for Tibette! Now they have to talk with their spouses so that they can take steps to built a relationship ;)
Loved the chapter, I’m glad to know that this fic is already finished. I will be waiting with baited breath for each new chapter. I am excited about reading this in it’s entirety including the sequel and anything else you want to write for us. Please post soon.
This is a fun story to read. Shows us again that what ever the circumstances, professions or life style these two will find each other. Here’s to Bette designing the medical center of Tina’s dreams and here’s to Tina for opening her heart to a new relationship with Bette. So nice to watch from the sidelines. Popcorn popped and feet up on the coffee table reading. Fantastic. Thanks!
Jlr921,
This story is gonna be “fab”!!!! It has such a sweet theme.

WhoopWhoop let the fun begin!!!
Great chapter… As I are you a mechanic in your other life. Lol.. Both my father and older brother are. And myrtle is on death role.. lol..
The little chit chat on the picnic was cute. And glad Tina felt at ease enough to tell Bette about her son.
Cute they share same bday. My wife and I are a week apart. But not same age. 16 years younger than me.
Thank you I shall go on will get caught up sooner or later.
