Crossroads- Ch. 14
Alice protested. "I’m just saying that there’s more to it than just the actions. It’s not going to be easy, and Carmen sure as hell isn’t going to be easy to pacify, but I think you guys still have some things to work out. Maybe you’ll just be friends, maybe you’ll never see eye to eye again. But, you’ve got unfinished business. At the very least, you have to try and explain. You owe her that much."
"Glaaah! MMMmmmmaaaammmmmaaaa!" Angelica’s gleeful cry redirected both women’s attention. Tina was walking towards them with a relieved grin.
"Shane! It’s so good to see you! And you, little miss, how did you enjoy your walk?" Tina leaned down and gave Angelica a big slobbery kiss. The little girl’s peal of laughter brought smiles to both Shane and Alice. Looking up she grinned. "Your turn, Shane!" Springing forward she enveloped Shane in a bear hug. "Welcome home."
"Thanks, Tina. It’s really good to see you too." Shane reached out and pulled Alice into the embrace. "I’ve missed you guys."
Alice looked at her watch. "You here to pick up Angel?"
"Not exactly. I’ve come for dinner and a movie."
"Ah. Let me guess, Finding Nemo again?"
"No….an adult movie. We’ll watch it after Angel goes down for the evening."
Shane and Alice exchanged looks. In stereo they chorused, "Porn!"
Tina giggled. "You guys are sick. Actually, it’s an indie film Shaolin has in post production. I thought Bette would like it, so I brought it over."
Shane acted confused. "What’s Henry up to tonight?"
Tina focused her gaze on Angel, as they pushed the stroller towards home. "I’m not sure."
Alice went for the kill. "I’m sure he won’t be too excited about you and Bette watching movies together."
Tina tucked a few stray wisps hair behind her ear, and answered with a grin. "I don’t really think what I do is any of Henry’s business anymore."
Shane whistled. "Fuck, disappear for a week and miss all the good stuff."
Tina punched her lightly on the arm. "So don’t disappear any more, okay?"
"I won’t go anywhere, if you don’t." Shane flashed Tina a mischievous grin.
"Um, we’ll see. Right now, it’s…..nice. It feels like we’re just getting to know each other again." Tina chewed her lip. "I think there’s a big difference with both of us having a career to think about. It seems like we feel more equal than we have in a long time." She leaned forward and ruffled Angel’s hair. "And you love having both your mommies around, don’t you, squirt?"

Yeah…Bette & Tina dinner and a adult movie…can’t get any better than that. Glad Shane is home…keep posting…more B&T please…
Wow, you’ve certainly got a grip on what’s drivinf LAra these days. Will she be smart enough to share it with Alice? I hope so because I’m loving the way you’re crafting their relationship…and I’m with Captain, my Captain on B&T!
love the update as always! please post more soon! and thanks for asking, my wrist actually is much better. it hurts every now and then, but for the most part im back no normal! great job on the story! keep it up
Love it love it love it, excellent update and insight into Miss Lara’s issues–I hope she goes home after her exhausting day and gets some lovin’ from Alice. I like how you had Alice not pry Lara for info but instead expressed A’s willingness to be there for L when she comes to terms with things on her own time. Especially since it seems that L is not yet used to sharing really deep emotions, post-Dana. Will she share more soon? Lastly, I agree with SammysGirl that you are crafting this relationship so nicely. They have each others’ backs. And they really dig each other. What a combo. Great Shane and Alice interaction too. Please post again soon, keep it up!
i really like this story. keep it goin.
I’m glad Lara decided to visit a psych. I knew there was more to it. I hope she will be able to recover from it. Some habits don’t die easily (as we could see at the ending of this story…will she get through those 6 hours without fainting?). Will she tell Alice about it? And you gotta love Alice for her straightforwardness when she asked Tina about her and Bette. Btw, I could go on and on about odd music ‘couples’, but I’m afraid I’m going to embarass myself further and further. ;)
Great update, as usual! I thought the therapy scene was really interesting – it’s a great way to find out more about Lara’s character (I only wish that would happen on the show!). I’m looking forward to hearing about the issues underlying Lara’s nightmare about Dana in her next session. I love how you’re interweaving all the other characters’ storylines (Shane’s return, B&T’s reunion) into the background of the main Lace plot. Great job! As for Reunions – I think things are on track to post an update in the next couple of days.
You are doing a great job of characterizing Lara!
Those dreams sound ominous… I like that Alice is giving Lara room to breathe. Thanks for another well-written chapter.
I hope that lara can get though this as her and alice will mke a great pair and they will both need to start speaking about their feelings a bit more and alice talking with lara and not pushing that shows that she cares a lot for lara please post soon great update I love it
In a fine act of betrayal to Tibette, I cared more about the Alice/Lara side of it all than Bette and Tina. This story (and your writing) is really good. Please post again soon.
