Chandelier – 27
Helena having coffee?
Angelica looked up, and broke into a broad smile. "Mama!"
Both Tina and Helena looked up.
"Hi," Bette greeted.
"Hi," Tina returned, grinning.
Helena rolled her eyes. "I’d say ‘hello’, but my input is clearly not necessary."
"You’re talking Brit," Tina reminded.
"You need to get laid," Helena returned.
"I knew it was a mistake letting you have coffee," Tina said in a light, mock-spiteful manner.
"No tea today?" Bette asked politely.
"Tea is soothing. I wish to be tense." Helena replied with candor.
Tina turned to Bette. "She has a date."
"Ah," Bette nodded with comprehension.
"Oh, cheesecake," Tina said, seeing the dessert on Bette’s tray. She smiled at Bette. "Would you still like me if I stole your dessert and claimed it my own?"
"Have it," Bette replied, mentally thanked Lara for being… well, how she was. Part-Dana, part-Alice, an enigma in her own way.
"This is what you’re like when you’re happily together?" Helena asked with disdain. "Alice was right, you are disgusting."
"Sticks and stones," Tina pulled the dessert to her, while allowing Angelica to transfer to her other mother. "Remember our deal, Peabody."
"I haven’t told!" Helena exclaimed. "Honestly, why would I give up the opportunity to tease you endlessly?"
"Because it’s more fun when the teasing is done in a group?" Bette guessed.
"That’s true." Helena admitted.
"Which you won’t," Tina glared at Helena, and turned to Bette. "Stop giving her ideas."
"Me?" Bette asked innocently.
"Berk." Helena mumbled.
Tina turned to Helena. "Oh, stop pouting. You’re a Peabody. You own more than the average person, and deep down, when you’re being honest with yourself, you’re a good person."
"But with my experience?" Helena questioned. "And she’s a civil servant. Surely she’ll have comments about my…"
"Could be a gold-digging you-know-what, but you know better than that, right?" Tina asked gently.
Helena shrugged. "Maybe."
"And how come you were never this nervous about a date when we were dating?"
"You were ripe."
"Hey." Both Bette and Tina protested.
Helena raised her hands in mock-surrender. "I take it back."

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.
