They paid their entrance fee and looked at the plan for the archaeological site they had been given.
“My God, this place is covers a huge area…” Tina said as she turned in different directions, trying to scan the area, “geez, I already have aching muscles and I wasn’t expecting this much exercise…”
“Yes T…, but your muscles are aching because of too much scrabble…”
“I liked playing scrabble…” Tina said as looked into Bette’s eyes, momentarily taken aback at the intensity of the look they shared.
Bette leaned forward, placing her lips against Tina’s in a tender kiss, “me too…”
Tina stood looking out over the Mediterranean ocean from the cliff top. She turned around slowly, full circle, amazed that she was looking at such diverse scenery in one swoop. She stood with her back to ocean and she was faced with the huge stepped semi circle that was the Roman stadium of the Kourion.
She turned around to face Bette with her back to the sea, She watched how Bette craned her neck, looking at the expanse of the site before her. She brought her camera up to her eye, zooming and focusing on Bette’s face, she had her sunglasses lifted on top of her head with a look of wonderment on her face.
Tina sighed, “oh Bette…, it wasn’t meant to be like this…” she whispered to no one but herself, almost feeling annoyed with herself for allowing the tingle of feelings that she recognised inside. She pressed the shutter, as she once again focused on Bette’s face, swallowing as she heard the familiar click of the picture being taken.
She looked away, closing her eyes momentarily as she heard her name being called, she took a deep breath as she looked back at Bette and smiled, she murmured under her breath as she walked towards the beaming smile “days…, just get through the next few days without making a fool of yourself…”
“Isn’t this incredible?” Bette said as Tina stood beside her. She brought her arm around Tina’s waist pulling her in close, looking directly at her as she spoke softly, “I’m glad I’ve been able to share all of these things with you…”

Ah mate… I love this! I know I say it all the time but it’s simply the truth. You have such a way of captivating the reader that it just amazes me. I will be sad when you end it but it has been an incredible tale… thank you for sharing it! xoxo
Oh i do love this…And i like Bettes way of thinking…She`ll be kissing Tina in the morning..Loved the whole chapter…Aphro Rocks lol
Yes, Jo, I will also miss this fantastic journey that you have taken us too. It was a beautiful for B&T to meet and sad that they may not end up together. Great update. I have felt so part of this story. You are an incredible writer. May your hospital stay be short and painless. Get well soon. Post again.
Just a holiday romance…who do you think you’re kidding?? PPS:)
Great post. Oh,Tina,did you have to say that? You know it’s more and so does Bette. I believe you’ll get them together so they too can start their thirty year journey. PPVVS
you really are a brilliant writing. each chapter has been so captivating!
oh, but it doesn’t have to be just a holiday romance…so sweet and amazing
I hope your hospital stay isn’t too serious. I am really enjoying this story.
Brava, Jo!!! Always the best. I know you’ll have a full and rapid recovery. The way you write…oh, my. You’re wicked brilliant.
Thank you for this scene Jo. I wouldn’t mind being part of the blue rinse brigade if that is what I have to look forward to. Please apologise to your partner for me. When I made the comment after her interview, I thought Jacky had written it! Sorry!! And again, thank you for this lovely scene. Take care of yourself!
Good luck with your hospital stay. Thanks for the post.
Another wonderfully written chapter Jo. I think that Bette and Tina are going to find that this much magnatism between two people in just a few days will not subside when the holiday does. How could either of them walk away after this…it’s not just a holiday romance. I hope the hospital visit is a short one Jo…looking forward to your next post.
great, the other women saw it…the love is there…a little more time and B & T will not be able to deny it!!! PPS.
Jo, that was such a beautiful and heart felt chapter!!! We all know this is not a Hoilday romance for B&T. Thank you and please take care of yourself.
“it’s not a myth and I am not kissing you with morning breath…” !! I knew Tina was the voice of reason and wisdom ! Hahaha ! But seriously, everytime I’m reading a fic and two people are described kissing in bed in the morning I can’t help but think to myself : ” whaaat ? They haven’t even brushed their teeth but they’re already just one caress away from having sex !! “. I really liked the fact that this was realistic, Jo, even though this all seems like a fairytale… Anyway, I’ve only found out about this new story of yours a couple of days ago but I’m very very fond of it. I love the lighthearted spirit of it ( even though we all know you’re the queen of drama. Hehehe ! ) and the contrast with the intensity of B & T’s feelings for each other ( since I guess it’s pretty clear they’re already in love with each other, even though they’re probably scared to admit it to themselves so soon ). You are a wonderful storyteller, Jo and I think your talent as an author is still unmatched in the history of fanfiction. At least, your prose is delightful to me and I’m once again completely hooked on one of your fics. Oh, and did I mention how endearing your Tina is here ? ( this from one of Bette’s biggest fan ). Can’t wait to see where this is going, Jo. THANK YOU !!! You’re a rockstar ( wink ).
Oh I think that it will turn out to be more than a holiday romance. I sure hope that they live close to each other.
Hey Jo! Just caught up with this excellent story of yours. Loving it! I hope B&T can talk about how their feeling before they part. Your writing and what you write, is (as usual), exquisite. Thanks Jo!
Hi Jo… i hope your feeling better… love this story… i am so glad you are putting that picture from L5 to good use… pps
I have missed this story and thank you for updating. Love this and will so sad when you end this story. Hope your stay in the hospital will be short and sweet. Get well soon! Thank you :)
I love that you added the older couple. So sweet! I hope it isn’t just a holiday romance, but I guess I will have to wait and see! I hope all goes well for you! Thank you for posting!
ah..sweet. looking forward to how you’re gona play this holiday romance out. perhaps separate them and then get back together?? PPVS. Take care.
I think it only began on a holiday. All the best to you, hope the hospital is only a brief sojourn.
…a holiday romance… a sexy game of scrabble… and so much more! Love the way you describe both of them realizing it to be more. Perfect chapter, Jo. You write them so well. Thanks for the heads up about your partner’s article. Enjoyed reading it. Hope your hospital stay is brief and successful. Take care.
Hey hun. A certain someone failed to mention that you’d posted! So I’m sorry I’m a bit late! Still loving this story – holiday romance my eye!! Beautifully written as always and you just feel as though you’re there watching it all unfold. Take it easy hun. xx
this wasn’t the end was it?
