    Author Notes:

    Let’s see how Tina and her date enjoy the reception at the CU College of Art, shall we?

    “I did promise to take you out. I don’t suppose I get a return promise for afterwards.”

     

    Ready to take on the world, Tina stood up and smoothed her dress. “No, you get no such promise.” She crooked her head towards the door. “Let’s go.”

    The ride over was in a higher-end Mercedes. Tina complemented the car, but Karen admitted that it wasn’t hers. She’d borrowed it from a friend, not wanting to usher Tina around in her older sedan.

     

    They parked outside the arts building. At the entryway was a sign welcoming all to ‘A Reception Honoring J.K. Briggs.’

     

    “Do you know the guest of honor?” Tina asked. They hadn’t really spoken much about the event.

     

    To this, though, Karen laughed.

     

    “What?” Tina was not feeling a part of the joke, whatever it might be.

     

    “J.K. – that’s me.”

     

    “What?” This time the word was voiced with a lot more surprise.

     

    “Well, Karen didn’t sound too edgy, at least not when I was starting out in my late teens. I kicked around a few ideas, and decided that ‘Just Karen’, or J.K, made a better choice.”

     

    “Interesting plan.”

     

    “Hey, if authors can use initials, why not me.”

     

    “So, I suppose you couldn’t have really skipped this event after all.”

     

    “I suppose not, but I’m still holding out hope for the post party.”

     

    Karen took hold of Tina’s hand and led her inside.

     

    This was certainly not the first reception Tina had been to. During the years, Bette’s galleries, the CUC, friends’ show, she’d been to many events in the world of arts. Still, there was a certain amount of trepidation in finding out she was with the guest of honor. Of course, that was due to the Bette factor.

     

    Entering the room, Tina searched out her ex-partner. She saw the back of her head, first. No mistaking Bette in most any situation, from most any angle. Standing with her were Jodi and Tom.

     

    “I’ve got to check in,” Karen whispered, leading them towards the cluster that included Bette.

     

    “Dean Porter,” Karen announced. “It’s good to see you.”

     

    As Karen spoke, Tina watched the emotions flash through Bette’s eyes. Surprise, and then possibly anger and confusion, but perhaps something else.

    2. Tina knew she was playing with fire by going to the event, but showing up with the artist, heh, got Bette’s knickers in a twist didn’t it. Can’t wait to see how this progresses, I like Karen.

    5. Indeed, as I indicated previously, I’m glad that you’re writing a character that I’m happy to see Tina with and keeping Bette a snarly “i want it my way or no way” kind of gal. It makes me want to see Tina with someone else. A nice picture you paint of Tina with someone else. I’m curious if you’ll continue to have Bette continue to play jealous or if she’ll at least pretend to stop being the spoiled brat she always is. It’s in your hands…carry on at your leisure.

    11. That was funny that Tina did not know that JK is actually Karen her date. Bette is a little upset but Tina did try to talk to her. Maybe Bette is not happy that Tina is not waiting for her to finish with jodi.

    13. I like a jealous Bette, but I do think that Tina needed to at some point at least blurt out the warning. Not really fair messing with your ex’s business, how would Tina feel if roles were reversed and it involved her work. I like that Tina isn’t waiting around, but I think it just hit the fan. Bring on the cold front cause things are going to get chilly!

    16. Love, love this fic. You write Tina so well. I love the idea of Tina dating, and Karen sounds interesting. Love the tension with Snarly Dean Porter. Can’t wait to read the next parts!

    18. Hey Pseud, Loved these last two chappies. Good to see Tina is having fun with Karen and being single. Best bit was Bette’s obvious jealousy. Just love to see her in a bad mood as Tina plays the field. Guess tha Bette really needs to get a grip of herself and decide who she really wants to spent her life with. I’m betting on Tina. I just want these gals reunited and loving each other again. Please make it so. More please and many, many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.

    20. You writers and your “tbc?”s. You know we (I’m sure I’m not alone in this) want more of your writing. And I love how Karen is playing oblivious to Dean Porter’s jealous streak. Great stuff. More when you can, please.
