Chandelier – 27
Bette looked at her. "Why are you telling me this?"
"Because I’m scared. Right now everybody’s looking at us again, and as far as they know we’re not dating yet. Nobody was paying attention then." Tina looked at Bette. "I make one wrong move, they’re gonna massacre me."
Bette glanced at Angelica, who was comparing Bette’s hair with her own, and turned back to Tina. "Then we’re just gonna have to make sure you do everything right, now won’t we?"
"And what about you?"
"What about me?"
"Think I’m going to screw up?"
"Oh, honey," Bette smiled at her. "That’s what we’re so good at."
"Funny."
"I try." Bette grinned. "What do you mean, screw up? You can’t screw up. If you do, who’s going to fix up after me when I screw up?"
"You might want to be careful, that kid picks up a lot of words." Tina told her.
"You see?" Bette grinned at Tina. She took Tina’s hand, and held it firmly. "Don’t worry, T, if we make mistakes we can just count on Angelica to fix up after us."
"That’s probably true," Tina smiled back. She turned back to her tea, then again at Bette. "We could get a chair for her. I just wanted to hold her earlier."
"I’m fine." Bette assured her, smiling at Angelica. "I’m practicing this fancy new system called attachment parenting."
Tina nearly spit out her tea. "Funny, again."
"I’m bursting with fruit flavor." Bette deadpanned.
Tina smiled. "Well, I’m gonna have my tea."
"And we’ll sit here quietly until our peace is interrupted." Bette agreed.
"Shane and Alice should be here soon."
"Then we’ll make the most of right now."
"Okay." Tina hesitated. "One of these days we’re going to get caught."
"Not if we’re careful."
Tina glanced at her. "When have we ever been careful?"
"Stop talking."
"Sitting here quietly." Tina obeyed.
Pause.
Tina glanced at where Bette still held her hand. "You either do a Boxing Helena or you give me back my hand."
"I’d answer, but I don’t get your reference."

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.
:-)
what an excellent way to start the morning. thank you.
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.
