Bette ignored Aaron and waited patiently for Ruxin to finish up helping a patron. Once the patron had paid, Ruxin approached Bette, ignoring all other waiting barflies.
“What do you need, doll?” He asked, quickly pointing to her with a smile.
“Three Space Dusts, please.”
“You got it.”
Aaron frowned as Ruxin turned around to fetch the bottles from the fridge below the counter. Aaron then called out. “I’ve got those plus a Jack and Coke and vodka pineapple, please!”
Bette looked up at Aaron. “Thanks, but that’s not really necessary.” She remarked with a half-smile.
Aaron grinned slyly at Bette while his eyes wandered over her. “Please, I insist this round is on me. Even if one of those beers is for your boyfriend.”
With a quirked brow, Bette turned back around just as Ruxin set the bottles in front of her. He leaned in to be heard over the music. “Did you want to get any drinks for the band or are they okay?”
“No they’re fine, thanks though, Ruxin.”
“My pleasure, Bette.”
Aaron witnessed the exchange and immediately remembered the conference call with the Stouts from the morning before. The sudden realization re-directed his attention and he didn’t notice that Ruxin began serving others waiting at the bar instead of getting his drink order.
“You’re Bette Porter?” Aaron asked before she could side step him back to the dance floor.
“Yeeeah?” She replied slowly and with uncertainty.
“Aaron Kornbluth,” he introduced himself and stuck his hand out. With three bottles of Space Dust occupying her hands, Bette looked at him helplessly. Realizing her inability to shake his hand, he sheepishly put it down with an awkward chuckle. “I believe you know my employee, Tina Kennard?” He asked.
His name finally sunk in when he mentioned Tina and Bette immediately tensed. “Oh,” she said barely masking her disdain. “Nice to meet you in person, Mr. Kornbluth. Now if you’ll excuse me, my girlfriend is waiting for me.”
“So listen, I was wondering, can we all sit down and chat after the show?”
Bette thought for a minute and remembered that Tina wanted him to find out on his own what a huge waste of time it was for him to try to sign the band. Rather than put him out of his misery right away, she decided to maximize his time wasting and let him enjoy the show first.

Hey MeLL eleven pages of Joy!!
Thank you
SG
Thanks for reading Sassy! Sorry that this week’s will not be quite as voluminous!
Eleven pages! You spoil us this sunday!
And i enjoyed every page!
Jodi is a annoying bitch, take your loss and move away.
I wish you a beautiful day MeLL!
I don’t often spoil. But when I do, it’s nice when it’s appreciated!
Another great one, that Jodi is some piece of work. Bette should invite her to the meeting with Aaron so she can blow them both off at the same time. Can’t wait for the next chapter.
Hey OneStorm!
Glad to see you’re still checking in from time to time! Jodi is about to get hers in the next chapter. Thanks for reading!
Great chapter and great show for the band! Seems that James as their manager already earned his pay by promoting the show at the right places. Too bad that Jody also will make some money out of it. At least she now knows that she can stop bugging Bette for the job of the Stout’s manager.
Phillys and Leonard? LOL Inviting Bette to dance reminded me somehow of the show and her behaviour at her pool party.
Bette’s song was a nice surprise. Great lyrics! When she took the stage, I was sure it would be the song she played to Tina on their first night together. I have to repeat myself: they are so cute together. Tina sitting on Bette’s lap, Bette tightening her hold on Tina, lip-locked again and on top of that a song clearly written for Tina. I give them six months and they’ll talk about moving in together for the first time ;-)
Another brilliant chapter, MeLL. I’ll have to read the story all over again once you’ve finished posting. :-)
Have a great week
cheers

That pool party scene definitely inspired Phyllis letting her hair down in this chapter. LOL
Remember, the night Tina heard her playing from the neighbors’ house, Bette had finished two new compositions. This was the second.
Six months seems a bit long to wait for the U-Haul ????
Hi MeLL:
Excellent chapter as always, and the length pretty decent (ha-ha). Very nice that Leonard was left behind, that man is a pig, he is abusing of Bette’s talent.
I like very much that Bette sang that wonderful song (is that yours MeLL?).
I’m so happy that Jodie got what she deserved seeing James at Bette’s side and how Tina protects her girlfriend from that harpy of Jodie.
Great chapter, waiting for the hot one next week.
P
Hi P!
Yeah, Leonard needed a little shabby treatment so that he better appreciates his employee.
Yes, those were original MeLL lyrics. It would be awesome if someone put them to music. I’m not musically talented whatsoever, and only play instruments in my dreams, so it’s unlikely these lyrics will ever be anything but fanfic.
Great you brought all the sleaze bags out of the closet….lol. you can put them back on now..
Loved Bette’s song.. as if everyone didnt know it was for Tina. Including Tina.. who seem to get very excited and a need to go home. (Wonder why).lol..
Yeah phyllis asking for a dance reminded me of the bar scene when she told Bette you had feelings for her.. Bette’s face was priceless.. Jennifer Beal is a great actress her face was so funny..
Well thank you and it was a bit longer.. lol.. look forward to next week.
That bar scene was pretty funny. It took a while before Bette realized that Phyllis was talking about her, and the moment of realization was hysterical.
Time to take out the trash one sleazebag at a time!
You are quite the storyteller, my friend. Just getting caught up. You’ve built great characters I love and love to hate. A sign of a great writer. I might make it down to SD for a Giants game and little golf in July. I’ll have to buy you a drink if I do. Love your writing, GF.
Well, look who’s slummin’ it over here! ????
Thanks for taking the time to comment and sorry for the delayed response. The holiday weekend took its toll on me since I was traveling down the 99 and the I-5 from back home. A total of 8.5 hours of windshield time makes for a tired MeLL who could barely stay awake to finish the new Game of Thrones episode upon my return to America’s Hoppiest City.
Please let me know of your plans once confirmed and we’ll try to make that drink happen. Maybe a pre-game drink at Social Tap would work out best since it’s right behind the stadium. Let me know!
