    Frozen – Chapter 2 – Cold Flames

    It took two false moves – one Bette’s, one mine – to lose the game.

    Standing on the deck, I finally managed to ease the attack; imagining Bette’s sweet voice talking me through it. I shiver as a strange sensation crossed my body. I pull my arms around my own body trying to warm myself up, but the cold sensation reached every deepest corner of my body. She was near. Years ago I would feel a warming sensation each time she was close; today, it was a freezing feeling and it frightened me.

    Finally, a car pulled in the driveway and I felt my heart sank. My breath caught in my throat and I couldn’t move. I was finally going to see her after six long and endless years. As she got out of the car, she took in the surroundings and then stopped dead in her tracks: she had seen me. Our eyes locked for just a second. She frowned, then diverted her gaze and went straight to the front door without even greeting me. I followed her with my eyes until she disappeared into the cabin, pulled in by Kit’s cozy hug.

    I can’t remember for how long I had been out there for I was too shocked to even remember where I was or who I was. Bette totally, completely avoided me. I shouldn’t have been so shocked, after all, I couldn’t blame her. Still, the pain was unsustainable. Leaning against the cabin walls, trying to steady myself, for my legs were too weak, I slowly made my way back in. I opened the door and, as an intruder, stepped in. Everyone was around Bette, telling her how they missed her; laughing, hugging and saying some joke every now and then. It was as if I wasn’t even there. I felt like a stranger. I caught a glimpse of Angie, hiding behind a door, she must have heard the cacophony coming from the living room… as she saw me entering the house, she immediately approached me and the room went still. The laughter, the voices were gone. Alice, Shane, Kit, Helena… every one of them was looking at us as though they were expecting some kind of magic phenomenon to happen. Then Bette turned around and I was, again, met by the cold gaze I saw some minutes before outside. Her eyes lingered on me, then she looked at Angelica. I felt my heart skip a beat when she showed no emotion. Not one single emotion. I instinctively pulled an arm around my daughter’s shoulders as I sensed she was getting kind of afraid. Bette’s gaze went back to me and in a mocking voice she said: “Oh, right, you’re here as well. Hi, Tina” and turned back to our friends. And now I understood what Kit’s ‘she’s okay with you being here’ meant: you aren’t here as far as she’s concerned.

    1. Shit, this is so heartbreaking. Great writing, i can feel every emotion.

      Is there a chance Tina told Angelica about Bette?

      I understand Bette’s reaction, but i hope she will warm up to Angelica.

      Again, great writing.

    2. “Not one single emotion”, The pain still exists between them and maybe not even Angelica can bridge the chasm. So sad, so sad. Maybe the fire can burn through. PPS

    3. Wow, dear. Now, really surprised me.
      you know how much I love your talent. It was a great chapter and emotions everywhere (mine too)
      I understand Bette’s reaction, it made her survive what happened. but also with Angelica?
      have a bad feeling that you do not do happy end: (
      please posting soon

    4. Wow im speechless, it must took everything in Bette to not go over and kiss and hug Angelica im sure she still believe that’s her child..but I love the way she treating Tina because Tina deserves it. I always wanted Bette to not give in so easily to Tina all the time I mean she needs to work hard to earn her love and trust back…can’t wait til next chapter..loving this

    5. The imagery you used of the flames and the rocks were emotive and describes their past and present relationship well. It is heartbreaking to see Bette behaving so coldly towards Tina and Angie. Looks like Tina has created a monster. Please bring back our girls together again.

    6. You have me hooked on this story. I love the imagery you created with the snow, trees, rocks, flames and lighthouse. I can feel the cold that Tina feels looking out the window and looking at her past. Bette is such an emotional person and for her to be so cold to Angelica is surprising. I hope this is her defensive wall to keep herself together and that she will thaw very soon. Either that or Tina broke her spirit 6 years ago and will have to put it back together like a broken bowl. She may have taken Tina literally when she said Angelica was not her daughter and closed off all feeling for her in order to move on with her life. I can’t wait to read more.

    7. Although it was warm in my living room I’ve got the chivers by Bette’s cold approach of Tina and Angie. I can only hope it’s just an act to hide her true feelings to protect herself. Can’t wait to read the follow up. Thank you for this great story. I’ve read all of your stories and liked all of them but I must admit this one is by far your best. Chapeau!

    8. “Oh, right, you’re here as well. Hi, Tina” and turned back to our friends. And now I understood what Kit’s ‘she’s okay with you being here’ meant: you aren’t here as far as she’s concerned.

      You’re killed me with that line! Oh, to be zeroed out by Bette Porter would make me freeze. You set the anxiety up well! I was hurt at the end. You got me a good way.

    9. Hey BOP,

      This is heart breaking. I truly felt the emotions of Tina. I’m sure that Angelica will bridge the gap between B and Tee. Tee deserves to be treated that way but I’m sure B is excited to see her ex and ex-daughter?

      Please post soon.
