Julia lived/worked in an artsy area that was populated by renovated loft apartments housed in warehouses designed for artists, writers, musicians, actors and freelancers. Bette approached the industrial sized elevator and was greeted by the operator who took her up to the top floor. The door opened into a private alcove that let to Julia’s unit. Bette knocked and the door was opened immediately.
“Bette darling welcome. I’m so glad you called.”
“I hope you don’t mind me just dropping in.”
“Not at all. I wanted to talk to you. By the way you look amazing. Pregnancy definitely agrees with you. How are you feeling?”
“I’m feeling great. Shane and I are starting the birth classes next month. Now that I’m entering the third trimester and everyone knows it’s really becoming a reality for me. I’m a little nervous.”
“You’ll be fine. Trust me I’ve had four and each one was different. I won’t lie to you it hurt like hell but in the end you forget about all that and you’re just happy to be holding your little bundle of joy.”
“I can’t wait. So what did you want to talk to me about?”
“Barbara Grisham.”
“The senator?”
“Not any more but she’s still a strong advocate for patriotism and we’re once again joining forces to get support of my latest project. We’re off to Washington DC in a few weeks. Barbara had suggested you join us. They are still talking about your fiery comeback to Senator Horsey’s outburst.”
“He really got my blood boiling. What an asshole.”
“Well there is a whole new regime of assholes to contend with.”
“I’m sorry to miss it.”
“Me too, but of course you can’t travel and you really don’t need this kind of stress in your condition.”
“No I don’t. Does Barbara know about the baby?”
“No. I didn’t think it was my place. I just said you were unavailable.”
“How is Barbara?”
“Well you can ask her yourself. She just ran out to get something from her hotel room. She should be back shortly. She got very excited when I told her you were coming over. If you hadn’t she was going to call you.”
“She’s here in Los Angeles. For how long?”
“Actually she’s thinking about relocating, but for now she’s here for a few weeks preparing our strategy.”

Hmmm….Bette and the Senator? I like Bette with Leigh much better!! Great story..as always. Thank you!
Glad Bette is getting the attention she deserves.
Love the continuation! It is nice that Bette is so happy with most of her life. Maybe soon, all of it. Thanks for posting!
Ok, Leigh or Barbra would be good choices if you insist on it not being Tina. However I will not give up hope. As kit said, those two belong together.
Thanks! I want Bette with Tina also! I’m keeping the faith!
great chapter hm im not to sure I like bette with Barbara but im so pleased shes getting on with her life pps.
I really dont get why this wont be a tibette story especially when it’s obvious that still belong together in the story but its nice to read a lil difference in a story and trust me.you making sure all hope is lost, smh love it anyways, i want to see more angie and bette nights that would be awesome
Excellent story and your writing is outstanding. I always liked the Senator and even Leigh w/Bette. Either one would be a far better partner for her than Jodie, IMO. Of course, Tina was always my fave.
Like the Senator very much and certainly more than Jodie but I, and I think Bette, need Tina back in there!! Can’t you consider her at least being around so she can see what she is missing and show Bette that she is really the ‘love of her life’? I live in hope!
I feel like we are getting to the best part of the story here, haha. Hmmm, tough choice for Bette, huh, with all those women coming out, lol! I would be happy with whoever you choose for Bette (well, anyone but Tina). But, to be honest, I can’t see Bette with an older woman in this story (I always had an impression Barbara was older then Bette). Leigh, on the other hand – I am intrigued. What is her deal? Would be kinda romantic if she carried a torch for Bette all these years, lol.
I’m like the others: I really want to be with at the end of Tibette. It was always hard for me to imagine Tibette story, so that they are not together and live happily. I am glad that Bette begins to live his life. the senator is still better than Jodie (anyone but Jodie is not in the story!)
I loved it as always, but I hope at the end of Tina and Bette will be together.
My dear friend, I’m loving this story. We all have our baggage to deal with and Bette had opened hers up. Tina still carries a steamer trunk. I hope that she allows Angie to maintain a strong connection to Bette and her little brother. I can’t see Tina really being a part of that scene as she’s too angry about her life and how she’s created it. We all make choices and decisions and Bette has made better ones than Tina has so her life is sitting in a much better place. Tina needs a bit of therapy to let go of her anchors to her past so that she can move on and be happy. I’m happy that Bette is able to move forward with her life with Angie, the baby, Kit and her extended family. I only wish the best for Tina in this story.
Thank you my friend for your brilliance in writing amazing stories! I so enjoy them!
great story like to reed moore!!!
