Sighing deeply “We’re playing her game aren’t we?” Bette
says with resignation as she sees her course.
“Yes that would be my guess.” Jack states simply.
After this both are in thought as their conversation is at a
pause.
“Bette” Jack finally says in a measured tone.
“Yes”
“What’s more important to you getting
It doesn’t take Bette a moment to answer “Anna”
“Good than we may want to keep any publicity to a minimum.”
Jack advises.
“Right!” Bette says realizing that Jack is advocating no
court. “Jack let me talk to Tina but I
think you’re right. Thanks for all your
help.” Bette says with a look of grim determination on her face.
Not long after they were both off the phone, having made
arrangements to get together Monday at noon.
Yawning, Tina looked at her coffee cup and realized it was
empty and that she should pull over for a refill. Seeing the next exit was only a few miles
away, Tina edged into the right lane.
Exiting the interstate, Tina headed to the first shopping plaza where
she spotted a coffee shop. Waiting in
line for her coffee, Tina remembers she needs to call
she realizes it’s only 6:30. ‘Guess I
should at least wait until 7 to call her.’ Tina reasons with herself as she
picks up her coffee walks over to the condiment area and fixes it up.
Bette tossed once again, probably for the hundredth time
since Tina has left. With a big sigh she
just gives up the thought of anymore sleep.
Not wanting to think about
Bette hits her alarm so it won’t go off at 7:30, Bette gets up finds her robe
and heads out to the kitchen. Smiling
she can see the remains of coffee and the note Tina had left. Picking up the note Bette smiled as it warmed
her heart that Tina had thought enough of her before she left to leave her this
note.
“Babe, have
a great day. I will be home late so
don’t wait up. Love T”
As much as she loves the thought that went into the note,
its contents brought an instant frown to Bette’s face. Once again she worried about Tina’s
impossibly long day, thinking of all the hazards that come with doing crazy
things like this. Bette was trying to
respect Tina and how independent she was and her ability to do her job
well. But when it came to stunts like
this it took all of Bette’s self control not to second guess why Tina was doing
this, putting herself through this crazy day.

Now no car accidents today…I have this feeling of impending doom…pls let me be wrong!!!! Great story..post soon pls
Another great chapter i have a feeling that something is going to happen to our Tina
You are a good person at times let this be one of them Bring Tina hope with God speed. and lets get down to Helene. Tina needs some peace from her before Bette does some evil deed to her. thanks
great story Jwet. hope tina makes it home safely. need some more B&T lovin
I’m starting to feel a little anxious, Jwet, like something dreadful is going to happen…Tina’s been going balls to the wall (and driving long distances on top of it?!!) SHIT! I’m sure the drama is going to commence! LOL! Please be gentle, I’m loving the way Bette and Tina are these days. Thanks for posting!
I hate it when the last words you think about before you go to be rob you of sleep. Nothing peaceful about that!
Tina’s determination not to be away from her family is sweet, I just hope that it does not come at too steep of a price.
Tina’s day dreaming was a nice way to take us back to the previous day as well. We get gist of what transpired and it moved the story along quite nicely.
I think Helena’s game plan is to stay out of the spotlight herself. I think she realizes she can accomplish that by making Bette feel that she is the one that needs to stay away from publicity because of Anna. She may win the battle but she won’t win the war. Give her enough time and rope and she is going to hang herself.
I still…don’t…trust…Alice. I didn’t despise her this chapter as much like I usually do, but I’m not letting her off of the hook just yet.
I’m with Bette, if you can’t get back to sleep immediately, then just get up. She’ll probably be more useful at work anyway.
The hairs on the back of my neck are standing up from the undercurrent of doom that you laid forth in this chapter. Hopefully this is just a ‘stupid idea’ and I’m just ‘crazy’. LOL…great chapter as always, Jwet.
you’ve got me worried about Tina – and I’m hoping that B and T and Jack can come up with a plan to get Helena off their backs for good.
ok i didnt liked your talk about storm..why im the feeling like Van that something will happen to Tina?..please dont let her get hurt..my TiBette heart have suffer enough..another great chapter post soon
Love makes us do the craziest things. Nice to see them loving each other in emotional heartfelt ways. Great job here.
HEY!
Always a pleasure to read your history!
Again, a great chapter.Look forward for the next!
Pls, let Bette kick Darth Hellena´s *ss(it´s not mine, I readed it somewhere else and I though it was great :)) soon!!!!!!!!!!
For some reason I can’t help but think that somethin’s gonna happen to Tina….like maybe an accident????? I hope I’m wrong and she comes home safe and sound to her family. Post soon!!!!!
Okay, you the stage is starting to set. Something tells me alice’s “article” will be making a debut appearance for the world to see just in time to “save the day”..hmmm Although Bette does not want it made public about her involvement with the foundation, it could be very benficial. And what is Tina up to???
I can’t say this enough, your writing is suberb, you are so talented!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Great chapter, I jut hope that Alice keeps her word and doesn’t print the story about Bette (Either by accident, by misstakely turning it in to her publisher, or on purpose.), because it is not worth her friendship with Bette. I also think that it would be smart for B&T to consentrate more on thier family and each other than on Helena, this is the best way to beat her. Don’t totally ignore the devil, but don’t let her still your joy and therefore distrub your live. Please post again soon.
Mate, you will always have my support for the Super Hot Sex on Legs that is Bette Porter, as long as you don’t hurt her or make her suffer or let anyone be nasty to her…… LOL
Another great chapter! And stop thinking about that next story – although it will be so great – you have to wind this one up first and you’ve weaved a very tangled web that is going to take forever to unfold!
But that next story – are you aiming for a trio of awards?? I’m sure with your excellant insight, passion, descriptiveness and emotional writing it will succeed with flying colours!
I worry about Tina too; not enough sleep, a long drive, long meetings, another long drive. I can see why Bette is worried. Will Bette do something sweet; like fly down to San Diego to drive Tina home to make sure she is safe but it gets misinterpeted?
Or am I just on another limb of the tree?
I am so looking forward to your story this Sunday; had a rough week at work, especially today, so you can imagine my happy smile when I saw your post!
And I didn’t cook too much this week – too many birthday celebrations! Cooked some soup for tonight, it’s cold and wet here!!!!
Needless to say, great story and I appreciate you writing and posting.
great chapter as usual. thank you and hope you post soon
*waves at downlow* will continue to wave until downlow recognizes albeez. *waiting, tapping foot*
j, baby – loved it. you know ill always worship you ground you walk on. teehee
“goodbye babe, ill call you a little later.” “uh huh…love you.” melts my little tibette heart.
“i dont know anything specific but i cant shake the feeling that she is playing with us. yesterdays exercise was totally predictable, right down to the final outcome.” please, let me be first in line to kick HELLNOs ass. you know my feelings for her. *steam coming out nose*
“but when it came to stunts like this it took all of bettes self conrol not to second guess why tina was doing this, putting herself through this crazy day.” now bette dont be thinking she doesnt trust you. i think she just misses her 2 favorite girls. *sigh*
“i hope this isnt another call, requesting my presence in the principals office again.” i hate that feeling. get it all the time. actually just got off the phone with my principal (mom)
you are the master, and we are you loyal servants. *booty shake* for jwet. ahahaha
Hey Jwet, another fine chapter, I hope Alice doesn’t mix up the articles….mmmm.
I would hope that Bette and Tina concentrate on the adoption that is were their focus should be, not Helena but as we know this woman knows no bounds, what does she have up her sleeve?
Thank you.
JWet,
Yep, I’m back and full of comments and tricks. Have been called “Fruity” before but not “Nutty”. Maybe I’m a Fruit and Nut case now. Hee-hee.
Thanks for the personal feedback. Much appreciated as always.
So now back to this stupendous story.
Early mornings are a killer but you can feel that love is the reason that Tina will drive so far just to spend some time with her family. The way that Tina watched and adored the ever-increasing affection and understanding between Bette and Kit was heartfelt. It is truly amazing how comfortable they are with one another. A true kinship has developed through all the heartache and trauma.
Alice’s little diversion into Tina drive was well place and showed Alice’s true colors. She respects and admires her friendships but still tries to get the story published.
As for Bette’s early rise, it was puzzling to see what Helena is up to now but I know that the time for her comeuppance is nearly here. And I trust you will do it justice. Just continuing as you are shows your talent and skills as an author.
Points to query:
Does Bette and Tina’s alarm clock have an “Oh My God, it’s Early” setting? Why do you clock watch when afraid of sleeping in? How come, 5 minutes can seem like a lifetime?
Why does one partner always cocoon themselves in the covers?
Will Alice get Brownie points for her relentlessness? Can Bette really find a suitable replacement for herself>
Please send me your thoughts on a postcard to…..
Thank you as always.
Your Loyal Fan.
Good chapter!
