“It does to me.”
“I think Leigh would want to know that.”
“So you think I should go?”
“Absolutely. Even if it’s just to check out the new pieces. Even if this collection is out of our price range maybe she has some other pieces that would be more appropriate. You might even inspire a new theme. Wouldn’t you like to have one for the baby or are you passing Angie’s down to him?”
“No. I would never do that.”
“What did you do with Angie’s?”
“I kept it when Tina took her away but it’s hanging in her room now. Angie loves it and it belongs to her. It’s not only a keepsake but a collector’s piece of art that I hope Angie will treasure always.”
“I’m sure it’s appreciated in value.”
“I’m sure it has but the meaningfulness of the gift is priceless.”
“I think this is another omen Bette. She won’t break your heart of glass.”
“I’m afraid I might break hers.”
“You’ve changed Bette. Earlier you were talking about the strides Shane has made in turning her life around. You’ve made some too. Think about it.”
“I will James. Maybe I’ll give Leigh a call and go visit the studio.”
“I think that’s a great idea. See you Saturday.”
“Bye James. Give my love to everyone.”
“Will do. Love you too.”
After disconnecting the call with James Bette pulled out the brochure and looked at the picture of Leigh Ostin. It was over five years since the last time she saw her. She was just as beautiful but maturity made her more alluring. Bette read the bio that talked about all of her accomplishments over the past several years. There was no mention of a partner but Bette didn’t want to get her hopes up.
She’d been disappointed too many times before when she’d taken a chance to put herself “out there” but James was right. There was always the possibility and there was only one way to find out if there was still an attraction between them especially with Bette’s pregnancy at the forefront. If she was to start any relationship the woman she’d choose had to be prepared to share her life and heart with Bette’s children.
***
Bette made the next call to Peggy Peabody. Her relationship with Peggy was bittersweet. The older woman had supported Bette through much of the trials and tribulations associated with bringing Provocations to the CAC but she’d gone off on a sabbatical soon after and had no knowledge of the havoc her daughter Helena had wreaked on Bette’s personal and professional life.

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!!!
