    Author Notes:

    Checking In.

    Bette stood on the doorway of Tina’s office, and marveled at the power that Tina exuded from merely sitting behind her desk. Sure, the blonde was looking at her desktop monitor with a look of dread and trepidation, but there was also that steely-eyed glare that clued Bette in that someone was in for some Tina lashing. "Am I interrupting?"

    Tina snapped out of her thoughts, and turned to the door. "Bette."

    Bette smiled. "It’s me."

    Tina looked at her, puzzled. "Did we have plans?"

    "We could have, if we’d been less Angelica’s mothers and more lovers the past few days," Bette joked, approaching the desk. She held out a bouquet of red roses. "These are for you."

    "Didn’t we already lose twenty-five bucks from that argument on the beach?" Tina asked, getting up from her chair to receive the flowers.

    "Sure, but aren’t the flowers pretty?" Bette offered.

    "They’re beautiful," Tina smiled. "Thank you."

    Bette looked at her, and couldn’t help but smile.

    Tina looked at her suspiciously. "What?"

    "That wasn’t your reaction the last time I brought you flowers at work." Bette told her, smiling. She was, of course, referring to when she’d brought flowers to the social justice headquarters and had been told by her archenemy that the blonde was pregnant with a child she didn’t even know existed.

    Tina smiled faintly. "This reaction’s better, isn’t it?"

    "Much." Bette replied.

    "You know what would make it even better?" Tina teased, leaning back against her desk. "Come here."

    Bette laughed, but came closer, anyway.

    "I’m sorry I haven’t called," Tina said. "At first I just didn’t want to say anything I’d regret, and I wanted to sound a little more witty than just saying ‘I’m sorry’ over and over. Then things got busy…"

    "No, hey, it’s okay." Bette reassured her. "I just missed you, and thought I’d like to see you at work."

    "And?"

    "And I’ll admit, I’ve forgotten how hot you look behind a desk."

    "Forget what I said before, in this case you can just throw flowers at it and expect it to go away," Tina teased, using her hands on Bette’s jacket to pull her close.

    2. Haven’t read the chapter yet, but I cracked up at the mention of the ending of “A Long Walk.” I remember you writing (of 5) somewhere and wondered if it really would end after 5 chapters. Hey, I thought it kicked ass. No fluffy bunny ending, but no sad gimme-the-damn-Kleenex ending either.

    10. This childish but here goes: Ya know how Snoopy the beagle) claps his ears over his head when he is deliriously happy? That’s me when I see that you’ve posted. “A Long Walk” was brilliant and this story is as well. I just want to read pages and pages of your writing. What a joy!

    12. Tiff, I loved ‘A Long Walk’. I have to admit though. I would like to have seen where you could have taken it. Great chapter again tonight. I hope you never get tired of writing, especially about B&T, cause I will never get tired of reading. Thanks for posting.

    13. I love a flirty Bette & Tina – I think it’s time they get down with the get down – they deserve it. Can’t Helena invite Alice to this Peggy dinner – an Alice/Peggy combo – the possibilities are endless. Great chapter.

    15. What a great chapter! I always enjoy your dialogue – so fun and cute. Your Tina and Bette are a really wonderful couple. Thank you so very much for writing. Your words and stories are a gift to this super website. *smiles*

    16. Damn, I just love reading your stories. This Bette and Tina are too cute, and the office sex, what a way to spend the day. Even lovin Helena’s new found sense of humor.

    18. I’m a little disappointed Bette wasn’t willing to fight fire with fire, so to speak. What better way to block a bad memory than by replacing it with a far better one? Why do I get the feeling this dinner could be interesting?

    19. I’m glad you are back to this story, although I really did enjoy the other…well, except for the abrupt end, although I’m just being selfish, you ended it great. Don’t worry about leaving comments, I would far rather you write your story than respond to comments. As always, thanks for your time and effort to this story.

    22. Your writing is astonishing – your voice for both of these women and for their friends joking around and confronting them si wonderful. I just read of all Chandelier and will go back and read your earlier work when I can. i want to read everything you’ve written here and will write. Thank you.

    24. So, in an attempt to become less of a silent reader, I just wanted to say that out of all the excellent stories that you’ve written I really am enjoying this one the most, it’s so clever the way that you write Angelica and Helena. I am a closet Helena fan, maybe it’s the Brit loyalty kicking in, but it’s good to read her as being a good friend to Tina, and you can give me playful Bette anytime you like. Thanks tiff.

    31. Thank you for bringing this story back to us. I love how they are beginning to work things out. They started off on the right foot and are now moving into a more physical realm of their relationship. Angelica is the true key to their life as a family. By the way I did like A Long Walk but hope that someday that you will pick it up and not totally follow the movie’s version. I can’t help it I just love Bette and Tina together.

    33. Tiff, you have such a gift with words, how you construct them into sentences, your dialogue is amazing. Do you realize how good your writing is? Your story is wonderful. Thank you.

    34. Hey TD, Thank you for that delightful and enjoyable chapter. It was fun to have Bette and Tina make out in Tina’s office especially when Helena broke the mood. I love the way that you integrate the reality of the show with the wants of your audience. Please can we have more BnT loving soon. Much, much , much appreciation. Your Loyal Fan.
