    Chapter 26 – BEST INTENTIONS

    “Mom,” Angie tapped her foot, “I can speak for myself. Both you and mama taught me that. I’m not going to let anyone talk me into something that I think isn’t a good idea.”

    “What happened exactly?” Tina looked towards her daughter for further explanation.

    “Well, we were talking about plans for this coming weekend.” Angie gestured with her hands. “Jordi wants to go to a party her brother is having Friday night.”

    “Oh, where is it?”

    “It’s at her brother’s apartment off campus.” Angie explained. “But I told her before that I’m not comfortable with partying with his friends. Some of them still vape and do other things that I don’t want to be around. And they’re too old for us. He and his friends all have girlfriends or boyfriends and some of them even live together.”

    “Ah,” Tina shook her head. “But Jordi still expects you to go?”

    “Yes.” Angie told her mama. “But I have a session at the observatory on Friday night and I’m required to go if I want to still be considered for the internship. I told her that a few weeks ago.”

    “Oh, I didn’t know that.” Tina admitted.

    “Oh, it’s okay mama. It’s part of the application process.” Angie explained. “I know you and I haven’t talked about it, but mom knew.”

    “Okay. That’s fine.” Tina raised her brows once more and regarded the tall brunette. “You knew and still doubted Angie?”

    “Well. . . no.” Bette hunched her shoulders and sighed. ”Maybe . . . yes.”

    “Which is it babe?”

    “Listen,” Bette took a deep breath, “I was just trying to help Angie out. I thought Jordi was out of line in her argument. I totally agree with Angie. But I didn’t want to just stand by while Jordi was trying to pressure Ang to go.”

    “But mom,” Angie curled her lips at her mother. “I know the difference between right and wrong. You and mama taught me that.”

    Yes, she was concerned about Angie like any mother would be. But Tina also knew that Angie was no fool and impulsive behavior was not a normal personality trait. Yes, Angie was young, but she had always been very measured in her actions and decisions. Tina didn’t feel that Angie would allow Jordi or anyone else to talk her into anything she didn’t want to do or feel comfortable with. She would give her daughter credit for that.

      • Hi Cathy,

        So glad to know that you enjoyed this story & how it tried to correct the awful storyline in GQ.

        We can only HOPE & PRAY that when GQ starts production next month, they have LEARNED their lesson & get Tibette back together as ENDGAME!!!!!

        Much more to follow so stay tuned.

        Thanks so much.

        Collins

    2. What a wonderful chapter and an incredible story. You have restored my faith in true love and these two lovely women. I just love this story and am so happy that you are going to continue it. Thank you for that.
      I thought the scenes with the three of them were sweet. We all need family moments these days with the world the way it is. Thanks for making that special.

      And then Bette being depressed about Tina leaving and seeing that suitcase that she thinks Tina has packed. Her insecurities popping up again. Glad that Tina could talk her down. I would be missing Tina too if I was there.
      Can’t wait to see where you take these two.
      Thanks so much and have a happy holiday.

      • Ms K,

        happy to hear that I have helped restore your faith in out 2 gals – Tina & Bette. I have admired JB & LH from the beginning of OG. They presented such terrific characters in Bette & Tina & it is an honor to write about them & put them back together forever.

        You can tell with all the family scenes I’ve written that family is important to me & was the so very important to Tibette too. Bette just wanted a family to love & Tina wanted to give it to her.

        I’ll explore Bette’s insecurity issues as I move forward with the epilogue & sequel.

        Have a happy holiday too!!!

        Best regards.

        Collins

    3. I have truly enjoyed this wonderful journey. I love the way you filled in so many missing pieces between OG & GQ and you awesomely captured the essence of these belbeloved characters. I impatiently await what’s next

      • Hi Sharon,

        I am thrilled that you enjoyed this story. And thanks so much for all your comments along the way.

        Like so many of us fans & Tibette followers over the years, I have also wondered too about so many of the loose ends that OG left us with. Still to this day I find it hard to believe that we got so little of the Bette & Tina story from their past while we had to endue some of the other hairbrained s that IC tried to saddle us with!!!

        So, I think I’ve answered some questions & filled in some blanks & provided some much needed R&R for Tibette fans.

        Epilogue is in process & will be posted soon, hopefully before the December holidays.

        Wishing you all the best & be healthy.

        Collins

    4. WOW the end of a long, beautiful journey. You must be emotional, you have put a lot into this story and tackled a tough subject head on. Well done. Feel proud of what you accomplished here. Writing these stories are not easy and require a lot of work and openness. SO glad you are not leaving the story completely, this is the gift that keeps on giving. Now that all the missing pieces are filled in, it is like having a blank canvas to write on. Thank you!

      • Hey BK,

        Actually 8 months ago when I decided to write this story, I never ever thought It would turn out the way it did. Oh, I had a plot & chapter notes & an outline. But the story & Bette & Tina came to life in my head & they kinda led me along the path they wanted. It takes on a life of it’s own.
        I’m sure you’ve experienced something similar when you write your stories as well.

        I am proud of what I’ve posted & the story I’ve told. All total words written -179,805!!! Who knew I could say that much???!!!!

        I totally agree about the writing process & how much actual work & dedication goes into writing a believable story.

        The keep on giving part is sure to follow as the rest of the story takes shape & the future is bright.
        You are right about the blank canvas – I’ll fill it up with Tibette forever!!!

        Thanks so much for your kind words & awesome support.

        Until the next time my friend.

        Collins

    5. Thank you for a fabulous story and characterizations. Bette and Tina jumped off the pages for me and came alive. I want a new chapter from you every week Collins.

      I look forward to reading what comes next in the epilogue and sequel. Thank you so much for doing that. Over the years many of the writers on this site haven’t finished their stories. So happy that you have chosen to do so. Can’t wait for it to happen.
      Thanks

      • Hello JW,

        You are so welcome for this story & the way Bette & Tina have come back together. I can’t promise a new chapter every week, but rest assured that much more is yet to come.

        I will give you a hint, the epilogue will be close in time to where we just left our gals off in this last chapter. You’ll get a tour of the Toronto area & some sights along the way. Have some adventures planned for the Porter family.

        The sequel will probably start a few months down the line as they are working on their relationship & Tina has gotten back to LA full time for those 6 months.

        I also find it frustrating to get invested in a story & then for whatever reason, the writer doesn’t finish the novel & just leaves it !!!! Argh!!!!!

        That won’t happen with my stories!!!

        So thanks again & take care.

        Until the next posting.

        Collins

        • Wow, thanks for the info and update. Glad to know you are a true Tibette fan in your heart.
          We’re going to Canada! Yessss! I’ve never been to Canada so I’m looking forward to that part of the story.
          Anxious to see how Bette and Tina work out their relationship.
          Thanks

          • Hey JW,

            True Tibetter from the very beginning. Also been following JB’s career for since Flashdance !!! & LH since she starred in Incredible 2 Girls in Love & Angel.

            I’ve never been to Canada either, but we can visit virtually & thru writing – so let’s GO!!!!!!

            We’ll have more relationship stuff & naturally Bette gets herself into hot water!!! She just can’t help herself sometimes!!!

            Take care & stay safe.

            Collins

      Wow, what a ride. The airport, held my breath. Can’t wait for the epilogue.

      What a journey for sure. The divorce just doesn’t work especially for the fandom. But lucky for the fans, there are writers like you that are willing to take on the challenge of dealing with the deep emotions that motivate a divorce especially when the love still exists.

      Hats off
      K

      • Hi SK,

        Where have you been lady??? Miss your writing & come back soon!!!

        I toyed around with a few different ideas for how Tina left, but finally decided on the one that was posted.
        I have some chapters almost complete – sooooooo posting could be soon!!!

        I SINCERELY HOPE that GQ rights their wrongs for Tibette in season 2 – if they don’t I highly doubt their will be a season 3.

        Thanks for the vote of appreciation.

        Take care & see you soon on the written page.

        Collins

      • Hi Izzie,

        Thanks so much for your comments along the way. I warms my heart to know you’ve been following & cheering me on along the trail.
        So glad you liked my slant on this storyline and their journey back to each other.

        So much more to tell about these two & their future.

        See you on the next posting.

        Please stay safe & be well.

        Best regards.

        Collins
