Fall in Vermont – Chapter 8
Bette was thinking of ways to avoid this visit but knew she would have
to see her at least once. “What is bringing you to Los Angeles
Isabella?” “I’ve been cast in an American film and will be shooting in
early January so I want to come early and soak up some sun and you so I
will arrive to enjoy Christmas in Los Angeles and we must spend time
together” Bette could not think of a worse time for Isabella to be
there she needed to prepare for her next big opening in Rome and she
had been looking forward to quiet Christmas. “Well we will have to have
dinner one evening Izzy but right now I really must go” “Alright
darling but I am looking forward to seeing you Buona notte” “Buona
notte Izzy”
Bette sat back in chair and rolled her eyes what a nightmare Isabella
in L.A. on a film she hoped Isabella would meet someone else quickly
and be distracted. Bette knew she was not interested in anything with
Izzy these days her heart thought only of Tina.
Tina looked at the clock and knew that Bette would still be in her
office. She pulled out the business card took a deep breathe and dialed
the number.
“Porter gallery, how may I help you?” “I bet you are embarking on a
long evening of work and take out” Tina’s voice made Bette melt. She
leaned back in her chair and smiled. “Some thing’s never change I
guess, how are you Tina? How’s Jessie?” “I’m fine Bette, catching up on
some orders here at home. Jess is running a fever but otherwise looking
forward to Halloween” “Nothing serious I hope?” Bette felt concerned.
“No, the chilly weather always seems to bring out a cold but she’ll be
fine” “How about you mom? Sounds like double duty?” “I must admit when
she’s sick there are never enough hands” Tina said with a slight sigh
in her voice.
There was a pause with them both not knowing what to not say next both
being ever so careful. “So what will Jessie be for Halloween?” “She has
settled on Dora the Explorer” “I don’t know who that is?” “You gotta
start watching PBS Bette, Dora is all the rage” They both laughed and
relaxed a bit more. “Tina, I’m sorry for not calling. I came back to
lots of work and” “No worries Bette there has been lots to process”
“Yes, and how are you really doing Tee?” Bette’s voice softened which
made Tina relax even more and feel Bette’s sincerity. “I miss you” “I
miss you too”
For the next week they spoke often. Laughing about turning the tables
on Alice sharing stories of the galleries, what Jessie had been up to
lately. It seemed very natural and the ache between them was growing.
The cold days of winter seemed warmer as Bette and Tina started on the
journey to becoming friends again.
A Tuesday morning at the Planet
Alice, Kit and Shane sat enjoying coffee and talking about the upcoming
holidays. “OK I am officially calling a meeting of PKAC” “Al, what the
***** is PKAC?” Shane said feeling like an Alice storm was brewing.
“Don’t be so clueless Shane. I though you were ***** Yoda? this is
the Porter-Kennard-Again-Committee” “Oh I am so ***** out of here – I
am not getting in the middle of this” “Yoda, sit your ***** down we need
your help” Kit demanded. “We have plan and you Yoda are the key” said
Alice.

Ahhh…sigh…now I can smile and relax for the weekend. I am absolutely hooked on this story C. You are wonderful at expressing emotions. Thank you for this…your pacing is perfect.
I love this story and I am so glad to see the old Alice again!
This is good and sweet. Please post soon. PKAC, only Alice!!
Really enjoying your sweet story. May the force be with PKAC!
You have no idea how much I look forward to this heart felt story. Once you have found your soul mate, no one else even comes close. That kind of love never dies….here is hopping that B&T realize that life is not really living, without each other in it. Jess needs a MaBe to help her grow up. Have a Happy New Year and a safe one.
Glad you posted,love this . They need each other and Tina did say that the Chilly weather wasn,t good for Jessie. Like the Mini Tin and Bette that Alice revert to. thanks
I love this story. It’s so romantic!!!
Wow, will Tee decide to spend Xmas in LA then run into the Italian Vampire? If even Bette herself is not sure if she won’t hurt Tee again or not, how could she convince Tina about it?
Oh, I’d love to see this. I can’t imagine how you will bring these two together, but with Alice involved, it’s going to get wacky. Especially with Isabella in town. YIKES!!!
Good chapter. This is gonna be fun and drama. Hope let bring Bette and Tina together and let see what’s next, thanks!

I really love this story. Laughed hard at the last two lines – figures Shane’s the key to Al’s wild plan. Please, don’t make Tina and the Vampire both visit Bette a the same time. Thanks for the update…Happy New Year.
Looking forward to seeing the PKAC plan put in motion. Love your sweet story!
