    Chapter 45 – Connecting on Many Levels

    Hey I think I could probably do quite well with a hammer, you know the great persuader. Bette says with a light lilt in her voice as she is joking with Shane.

    Oh heaven help us. Shane says looking at Irene I hope you never get to see the sight.

    Irene sitting back taking the two of them in, has gotten use to the way Shane and Bette joke with each other. At first she had a hard time deciphering what was a joke and what was real now she just assumes its all joking. Well all I know is that when I tell Bette something needs to be done she finds a way to get it done. Now granted that usually involves hiring someone but it gets done all the same. Irene has really taken a liking to Bette and enjoys her visits most evenings that Tina is away. Hey you two enjoy the evening I need to get ready to go. Saying this Irene starts to get up.

    OK is it me or do you always have plans the nights I come over. Shane is now harassing Irene.

    Well if you would come over some other night when Tinas home well then maybe I would stick around. Irene says challenging Shane.

    Bette watches this interaction and almost immediately realizes that Irene is baiting Shane. Shane I will just remind you Tina will kill you if you mess with her au pair. Bette says with a little knowing laugh as she watches Irene go into the house.

    Yeah you got that one right. Tina has already told me that more than once. But you have to admit she is beautiful. But I think I will keep my distance, I wouldnt want mother bear to attack me. Shane says as she slides into the lounge chair that Irene had just vacated.

    Spoken like the wise yoda you have been known to be at times. Bette smiles at the vision of Tina being a momma bear.

    Hey Bette speaking of a yoda moment, I had the feeling that this morning you and Tina were connecting out there on the patio. Am I right? Shane ventures into the unknown world of Bettes private life.

    Bette just looks over at Shane and gets busy with Anna moving her around so she is now facing Bette. As Bette begins talking to Anna she acts as if Shane has never spoken.

    OK I get it I just stepped on something so private youre not ready to talk about it. Its just that I remember you sitting on my back porch not too too long ago saying how everything you ever wanted was right here. I just dont want you to miss out on any opportunities to insert yourself in this happy domestic scene. Shane says with a conviction that gets Bettes attention.

    Letting out a big sigh, Bette turns to Shane with Anna still in her arms Shane I have tried so hard to stay in the background and just be here for these two. You know provide in ways that make their lives easier whether they know or not. But when Im around Tina it like Im a moth and shes the light. I am so drawn into her warmth. I just dont want to get so close that I crash and burn and end up with nothing. Bette says all this while looking at Anna. Now she looks at Shane I just dont want to loose it all again.

    1. Hey Jwet, welcome back. Great chapter. Love the pace of this story; wish it was one continuous novel but if it was I would probably read it in one day and there would be a definitive ending — so I guess I should be happy with the potential for a neverending story. After yesterday’s episode, I was glad to see you updated. I am looking forward to the date and Helena’s eventual demise.

    2. Hello Jwet,
      I am just back myself from a three day conference myself so apologies for no comments on the last chapter but have just caught up. Hope that all is well with you and yours, and back to normal.
      What can I say…
      Woo whoo! For one. Agree with everyone that your style is just so easy on the reader and flows with such majesty. You really do make it seem effortless, although I am sure that this is not the case. Looking forward to see how Bette overcomes her doubts. Will Shane help her realise what is straight it front of her? I do hope so? Can Tina get the foundation some good publicity after Alice’s (okay, editor’s) article? Will Alice give Dana a break about the visit to her Mom’s?
      Today’s queriesf includes:
      Will Dastardly and Muttley ever catch the pigeon? Will Helena be able to squirm her way outta this one? (like to reptile she is) Will Tina knock Shane oops upside her head for flirtin’ with Irene? Who will Anna say “Mama” to first?
      Some may be answered and other not in the next chapter form your gal and mine, Jwet.
      Can’t wait babes until tomorrow.
      Your Loyal Fan

    3. “Hey that’s a good idea but I’m afraid that if either you or I did it, well let’s just say we look much better in a tool belt than actually using one. Besides I just can’t imagine you with a hammer in your hand.” …lol, now that is such a HOT visual=P Finally, B&T are realizing that they’re equal…lovin’ it so much…Bette’s right, if she wants a stronger relationship with Tina, she has to take it slow and approach with caution…I think we can all agree that we don’t want to see her lose everything once again=) lol…no Alice in this one, she must be busy doing some reporter research & re-doing that horrible article of hers for Tina! LOVE IT!! Update soon please!

    4. Hey Jwet yes I am healing well thank you. I just about have the use of my arm back so it’s good news. I love when you take then into a new growing friendship. Close encounters where the feel strongerly for one another but pull back. Having to silently deal with the overwelming feelings. It all builds up and at some point I know you will lead of home. Wahoooo…

    6. I like the trust you have between Tina and Bette; and slowing getting them back as a couple to the framily.

      As usual, great story.

      And I agree, the finale did not suck but did not have as much as what I wanted. It was a let down.

      Please continue to hold us till next season.

    13. Very nice. Glad to see Tina on top of everything (including the world, at the mo). Bette’s being more relaxed. Shane’s flirting w/Irene. All is as it should be.

    16. Welcome back. How was the trip? I too had a little running around so I had some ‘catch-up’ reading to do. Another great one. I’m glad that you continue to show Bette’s insecurities about messing up a second time. But having little Anna in her life is going to make it MUCH harder to keep loving Tina from a distance.

    18. great chapter…and i underestand why Bette is so afraid…but i think those two will work things out in the right way i mean love always win in the and am i right?..and bring us the DATE..lol..

    19. Jwet Thank you for posted again Anyway Whoa!
