    Author Notes:

    Bette, Tina and the fine officers of the Seattle PD

    “Exactly,” Stacey continued. “So where was I? Oh yeah, he hates women who take jobs from men and he made the whole thing up. It’s done. He made the call from my office and I witnessed and taped at least his end of the conversation. If that will be of any help just let me know.”

    Bette smiled at her friend’s attempt to right a wrong she felt responsible for. “Thanks Stacey. If you ever need to augment the trauma gig, you would make a fine private detective.”

    “Are you sure you’re O.K?” Stacey asked softly.

    “No, I’m not sure at all. But it’s out of my hands right now,” Bette said barely above a whisper.

    “Oh and we know how you like that,” Stacey responded, not able to think of a single time in her life that Bette had willingly ceded control to another. “Well maybe just one time,” Stacey thought as she reflected on her friend’s life

    “Does she know about Bobbie yet?” Stacey asked quietly.

    Bette nodded biting her lower lip. “I told her the whole story today.”

    “You’ve never even told me the whole story. The whole story?” Stacey asked again, not sure she had heard Bette right.

    “The whole story,” Bette confirmed softly.

    “I’m glad Bette. You’ve needed someone to talk to for a long time.” Bette could hear the warmth in Stacey’s voice as she quietly added. “I’m glad you’ve found her.”

    Bette nodded silently. “I know Stace, but now I just need to make sure I don’t lose her.”

    Before Stacey could respond, Bette heard the loud voice of her captain. “Porter get your ***** in here.”

    Still holding her cell phone to her ear, she stood and looked towards the Captain’s office. He was holding a phone and was as red as Bette had ever seen him.

    “Stace, I’ve gotta go. Thanks for all your help.” she said folding the phone and stepping slowly from behind her desk.

    Captain Benson motioned wildly at her to come. “What are you waiting for,” he yelled again. “Get your ***** in here.”

    Bette took one last look at the door to the interview room and begrudgingly moved towards her captain’s office. As she entered he slammed the phone down and bellowed, “Shut the God dam door.”

    2. SOX, IT’S 10:45AM LA TIME I JUST GOT UP FROM A LONG NIGHT AT THE STEVIE NICKS CONCERT AND I HAD TO SEE IF YOU POSTED…SO GLAD YOU DID.TERRIFIC CHAPTER AS ALWAYS.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE POST SOON…

    3. Sox, this chapter is one of the best yet. I definitly agree that this could be the makings of a first rate novel. Keep up the good work because I am literally sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to see what happens next!

    4. Your story is soooooo compelling. I’m compelled to read it as you are compelled to write it.
      After what Tina has been through, if this was real life, would there be more compassion for her or is that the dept. is not sure if she is a suspect or a witness? Nice twist–Tina speaking up and saying she wouldn’t speak to anyone but Det. Porter. What has she been doing in there for 45 minutes? :-D

    5. Tina is really a strong lady, she got her way. Where will Bette place her where Tina will be safe. Can’t help falling in love with both of them. Great story. I love a mystery. Thanks

    6. I am so happy that you are compelled to write . this story is so tight, so detailed, so amazing. When I’m reading and I realize that I am almost at the last page I truly get bummed out & start to slow down my pace. Can’t wait for the next chapter. Also, good luck at work!

    8. Wow, I don’t know what to say. I’m just glad that I’m not in Bette’s shoes. She must be torn by what she should do, and what her heart is telling her to do. Maybe she should just quit, and go back into the Art world! This is so intense. Glad you can’t tear yourself away from writing this. But, I do hope you can get some rest, and that your other project doesn’t suffer because of our selfish need to extract this intriguing story, from your mind. Thanks again, for taking the time.

    11. If you wrote 24/7…then I’d be reading it 24/7. The most outstanding story imaginable. Riveting with just the right amount of humor thrown in.

      So, in order for you to continue to write I need to do what? Babysit your kids? Write your presentation? Pay your bills, feed your pets, keep your hubby happy? Consider it done…ok, maybe that last one is a bit of a stretch for me. But I could certainly keep him busy by talking about your ability to keep me on the edge of my seat with this story ad nauseum. Just say the word!

      Can’t wait for more…

    17. I am glad to hear the you have this absolute need to write this…….I have this absolute need to read it;-) I don’t know how your keeping the quality of this up but damn – keep doing what your doing.
      The “banter” from Bettes “friendly” colleagues is what you would expect from some but isn’t she going to get any support from anyone else on the squad? OK Bette has broken nearly every rule in the book but Tina is a witness not a suspect. If she is that good at her job wouldn’t some of her colleagues cut her some slack (gee I hope so).

    19. Sox, you have an obsession to write this story and I am equally compelled to read it. It was 6 am here in Atlanta, and well I am late for my workout (thus late for the rest of my day) because I had to read it when I saw it come through.

      Again, this is a fantastic story. Showing both Tina and Bette’s strength and vulnerabilities is truly a talent. They are full characters in your story. And all I can say is BRAVO!!

    20. Oh God you have such a gripping story and you tell it so well this is just awesome. You have written so much but I’m left wanting more. This is such a great page turner if it was a book I would have the whole thing done and be starting at the beginning again as it just stays with me long after I have left you these pultry comments. Thanks so much for your talent and your decision to share it with us all.

    21. Will you consider giving us a chapter on what Tina has been experiencing, thinking, & feeling for the last 45 minutes? Will it work if I say PLEASE? Ok how about PRETTY PLEASE? with SUGAR on top? I await your response.

    23. More than ever I’m reading this very engrossing story of yours like if it was a true novel, beyond the fanfictions’ area. I know that because it still would be engrossing with other characters than our dear two heroines. You should really think seriously about the possibility to publish detective stories, I mean it.

      This chapter was really intense and as it’s more than ever painful to wait for an update now, I’ll use my best begging tone of impatient reader to ask for a new one, as soon as possible !
      Many, many thanks for this great reading pleasure. Your story is a must.

    25. Yet another great chapter Sox! Where is Bette going to take Tina now though? Please post again soon, In hope staying up late writing isn’t going to stuff up your work though!

    27. this was long?? hell naw..not long enuff for me. Please never ever say that a chapter you wrote of this is too long cause i could read this for hours and hours and hours…thats just too DAYUM compelling. I mean i didnt even move reading this chappy…
      Seriously that story has me captive..point blank! *inhales exhales* lol

    28. SOX…i didn’t like that nurse either… and please don’t let anything to the dog… ok now get bette back to earth and on the trail of that bastard… another great chapter… please continue

    29. so glad you have such an, obs…, i mean work ethic. i sit here holding my breath. the strength they both have and are showing for each other. awesome. i know she’ll do her job but no moving t out of the house for many reasons. i want more, please. i think the dog may have to go. sad but true. gratefully i’m not the writer.

    32. Sox,
      I really don’t know how you do it but you do. You make this story ever more enjoyable and exciting with each new chapter.
      The relationship between Bette and Tina is palpable and natural. The drama unfolds and draws its audience even deeper in its lair.
      I take time to savour every delight you offer: the witty and sparkling dialogue, the realistic interactions between a diverse group of characters, the attention to detail that shapes and forms every image and scene, the feelings and sensations that demonstrate the power of emotions between Bette and Tina.
      Yes, I do forward to every new post with enthusiasm and exhilaration.
      Thank you so much for sharing all this talent and damned hard work with me. You make it seem effortless but I am sure that much blood, sweat, tears and toil goes into every word, phrase and sentence.
      It gives me great pleasure to see that Tina is so determined to impart her witness testimony only to Bette. I know that Bette will deal with this using all her integrity and finely honed detective skills to do her job and still protect her soul mate.
      My breath is baited until your next installment. Please keep ‘em coming as I am sure the little things like friends and family will understand.
      Your Loyal Fan.
      PS – loved the humor in your preface. Made me smile out loud.

    33. Superb yet again, wow, I can see this story so clearly through your eloquent writing. Thank you for a post unexpected at this time , I will wait eyes wide on the edge of my seat for the next…
      Simply Awesome

    34. That’s right Tina show them who the boss is!!
      This interview so be awesome, bette needs to swicth into cop mode, and tina needs to understand that. Maybe by the end Tina would of rather that to anyone else

    36. wow – the conversation with the captain awesome. Loving your obsession – your fine writing has made it mine- although we both know I have some serious BP obsession of my own.
