Calamity Bette
Tina smiled, knowing she had hit a nerve, “you’re kind of stuck on her, ain’t you?”
Bette folded her arms and sighed, she thought nobody knew, “I ain’t saying until he does…” she stopped a moment as the handsome lieutenant interrupted her thoughts, “I say…, where’s she been, anyway? I thought she’d be here to meet the stage…”
“She’s on duty at the Fort, I guess. Last time I saw her was a week ago…, she came in to buy a pack of them cigarettes.” Tina jested, knowing it was another opportunity to wind up Calamity in their love hate relationship that had continued on for longer than she could remember.
Calamity Bette glared at Tina for the statement, she got up and shoved the table as she walked away, leaving the chuckling Wild Tina Hickok at the table.

“Ms Miller, please. Nobody pays any attention to me.” Dana said, begging the Golden Garter owner as they descended the sweeping staircase.
“Why should they?” Kitty snapped as she walked to the reception, checking the signing in register.
“But, Ms. Miller, you’re expecting me. I’m Dana Fryer…” Dana said as she patiently, but worriedly, followed Kitty around the saloon entrance hall.
“But where is my actor…?” Kitty called with her hands waving, sudden panic rising over the opening night she had planned with the new actor she had hired, “the one who wrote me the letter about my ad in the Chicago newspaper? I hired her. She’s supposed to be here. Look…” Kit said as she pointed to the brightly painted poster advertising the opening night on the wall, “I’m advertising her…”
“Well, that’s me…” Dana said proudly.
“You’re her?” Kit said with a furrowed brow, even more confused than she was five minutes previously.
“No, I’m not her. You see, I’m…” Dana held her monogrammed luggage aloft, pointing to the name in scripted along the side of her suitcase, “Look, Dana Fryer."’
“You’re Dana Fryer? You deceived me. You’re fired…” Kit mumbled, shaking her head at the catastrophe that was currently happening in her saloon bar and knowing that the townsfolk were expecting a grand opening night with Dana Fryer, all the way from Chicago…, and if the townsfolk didn’t get what they wanted, she’d likely be run out of town… “No, you’re not fired. I’ve got to have somebody. I’m ruined. I advertised an actor. When that crowd sees you tonight, they’ll lynch me…” Kit mumbled to herself, panic stricken as she pushed Dana towards the white door in front of them, “go hide in my office…”

Hey mate! Did ya finally get to bed the other night? LOL!!! This was BRILLIANT! I didn’t know we would see this one so soon, but what a hoot! Now I have a song or two in my head. LOL! Thanks so much for a refreshing fic.
Hey, Jo, this is hilarious! We want more of this story! You’re just on the right lane, mate! PPS – Lucero & Marsha (From Mexico City)
I can see Bette come strapping in with her whip and other cowboy stuff, and Tina dressed all in black. When do these two hook up? Soon I hope. That was a funny movie with Calamity Jane as the butt of somene’s joke but she sure showed ’em.
Not sure I like Tina having a variation of “cock” in her name. LOL! Gotta read now.
not familiar with the movie/ musical but my opinion has always been: is that any storyline is that much better for having B&T in it….so please do tease away….hmm, actually teasing is in keeping w/ the night i’ve had, just saw Cirque’s Zumanity – freaking amazing!!! Thx for helping to keep me entertained on my downtime in Sin City this weekend (i only gamble for fun w/ friends, i work too damn hard for my $!)
You practically had me on the floor, I was laughing so hard. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen this movie. B&T in the lead roles just makes it all that more special. PPS!!
Hey Jo, Like Shaz, I adore the movie. Am singing “Whip crack-away, whip crack-away,. out loud now. Can’t wait to read more. Many thanks for this fun adventure. Your Loyal Fan.
I’ve never seen the real show nor do I know of it but your story is very interesting and I think I’m hooked. Please continue real soon. Thanks!
Like you loved this film, love too see where you take this story.
LOL on Lament’s comment..Anyways, this looks like a very promising fic. I’m in for the ride!
Hello Jobadge, this was really really neat… I love that you are taking that film and twisting it with our lovely ladies… the language is so much fun also… but you made it feel so very real and definitely kept the fun elements in there… I love the light hearted nature of this story… you are a brilliant writer and I think you can take this someplace special… so I say go for it… let’s see this one ride unto dawn and into the sun… Sincerely, JC
