Chandelier – 27
Bette entered The Planet on Friday, scanning the late afternoon crowd for Angelica and Tina, or at least any of her friends. At the counter, she saw Lara taking note of what was written as the day’s specials, a curious event she took a mental note to ask the redhead about as she approached the counter. "Hey, Lara."
Lara turned, and smiled. "Hi, Bette."
"Kit around?"
Lara shook her head. "Angus picked her up an hour ago for a recording session."
"Alice?"
"Alice and Shane are, shocking as the idea is, stuck at work." Lara grinned, which Bette returned. "Just you, Tina and Helena."
Bette grimaced. Helena? She finally had time out in public with Tina and Angelica, and Helena was around?
"So," Lara grinned at Bette, "you and Tina?"
Bette stared at her, stunned that Lara would be aware of such a development.
Except, wait, how would Lara know and neither Kit nor Alice be giving her grief about it?
Bette looked at Lara with newfound respect. "You’re good."
Lara grinned. "Secret’s safe with me."
"Thank you."
"No problem."
"Why are you studying the board about a menu you’re in charge of?"
"You caught that, huh?" Lara laughed. "I was thinking of changing something for dinner, and was hoping nobody would miss any of the day’s specials."
"You could just erase the board." Bette pointed out.
"And fall victim to my own personal whims, are you crazy?" Lara laughed. "You’re holding up the line."
Bette glanced behind her, and smiled at the guy behind the counter. "Fruit smoothie."
"Which one?"
"Surprise me." Bette said flatly.
"The blueberry cheesecake’s good today," Lara told Bette.
Bette frowned at her. "I don’t feel like having cheesecake."
"Get one." Lara advised.
Bette looked at her doubtfully.
Lara looked back at her with a mischievous-yet-innocent expression.
Bette shrugged. "Blueberry cheesecake."
Lara happily prepared the slice as Bette paid for her food. As she handed the tray, Lara grinned. "They’re out back."
"Thanks."
Bette brought the tray to the provided direction.
Angelica was sitting on Tina’s lap as Tina and Helena talked. There was a bowl of melting ice cream on the table, as well as two cups, a teabag resting on a nearby container, and the coffee-cream-sugar condiments near Helena.

ha damn that blue saab
I seem to recall the sitter having been called a mini-Alice in a prior chapter.
I love this love how you include Angie in this, Alice is going to be hard to convince that Tina is not going to hurt Bette again thanks
I just love this story. Great Chapter
This is wonderful. It makes me happy just reading it. The banter between the two, is fantastic, and then your throw in Angelica, its just what its all about. Wait till Alice finds out she’s been left out of the loop. Looking forward to your next update.
Wait! Do Alice and Helena have their own secret? Sweet chapter.
I’m with everyone else. The story is great and your ability to write dialogoue is stupendous. It’s as though we are sitting on the sidelines watching as they go through their day. Thank you very much for this. Wonderful.
just can’t get enough of you…please post soon
Let’s see, Helena, Lara and now Shane know about the reconcillation efforts of Bette and Tina. Now that leaves Alice and Kit. Both of which seemed to be against Bette and Tina returning as a couple. It only seems appropriate that they are the last ones to know. I believe that you can go ahead a claim them as yours. They have been left a shell of two women on the show. You bring them to life with your story. Got to love Angelica. How she can draw out the love and togetherness of her mommas.
i am so loving this.. please post soon!
There’s no surprise that Shane figured it out. I loved the way Tina sneaked a kiss. I only wish that they had left before Shane and Alice got there…
Ah, Texas is one of my favourite group. “And when you see there’s something you recognise…Love started making sense…I always make mistakes at my expense…Love has placed a seed…And you’re the sun that shines down upon me”. I feel like I’m repeating myself each and every time I read a new chapter from you and leave the same comment. And I’m not the only one. I just love your dialogue. Yes, they still have a lot to talk about and we get to read more of TiBette’s wonderful dialogue.
This is wonderful and happy to see them happy!
Absolutely wonderful again. You write these characters and dialog perfectly.
I’m so enjoying this story – sitting here with a great big grin on my face. Great dialogue.
I have said it before but it doesn’t hurt to say it again, your ability to write dialogue is superb!
Really enjoy these characters.. Your dialog is perfect!!
LOL @ Angelica pulling Bette’s hair! That makes me think of “I’m the baby! Gotta love me!” from Dinosaurs. Also loved the quick nod to the “love you” thing.
I love this story. Thanks for posting so frequently.
absolutely fabulous..best dialog ever…i think i can read it non-stop…you’re rock
Tiff..Fearing of being redundant…your dialogue is superb and your presentation of B & T is sophisticated and delightful. You’re the mack master of this genre.
:-)

Wonderful, beautiful, hit the spot!!! tks!!! Oh, and tks for the added length it’s appreciated
It’s not fast enough, Tina. I’d love to see Alice’s facial expression when she knows and finds out she’s the last one to know. lol
What a treat to have another chapter today. Alice is a good sleuth, but Shane is intuitive. Thanks for the pure pleasure of it.
love your dialogue…!

Loved the interaction between Bette & Tina tiff, brilliantly written dialog.
