Chapter 48 – Written All Over
Bette had been sitting poised in her chair as she sat back down and waited for Franklin to speak. Now that he was done what Franklin had said was so unexpected that Bettes first reaction was to lean back in the chair and let an audible sigh escape her mouth. The offer from Franklin was so unforeseen that Bette really was at a loss as to what to say. At this moment it dawned on Bette that she really hadnt put any concrete effort to advancing her own career in quite a while. Was this some place she wanted to stay? How can I even consider this I have Anna to think about? What would Tina think about this?
Ah Franklin I am so flattered I mean this is very unexpected. Bette said trying to recover and not look ungrateful. I hope there is nothing more going on with you personally that I should be worried about? Bette asks as she is also surprised that Franklin would want to step aside.
At that Franklin just laughs No Bette I just want to get my golf game into better shape and well spend time with my family. But are there any questions that you might have? clearly pressing Bette to talk more about the offer.
Well Franklin what kind of time restraints, I mean will the job entail more of my time than I currently work? Bette asks with a gravity that lets Franklin know that this is important.
Well I dont see why it would. I mean there are times when something critical is going on where it will demand a lot of your attention but I think I can safely say you already know of those events and well you have always put in longer hours than me so NO I dont think you hours will change much. Franklin says as a way of reassuring Bette.
Bette just nods her head in understanding as Franklin can see that she is truly thinking things through as her mind is putting the offer through her paces. Well I can see that you are surprised and well a little pleased no? Franklin says and waits for Bette response.

Wow this was a great chapter. Your character development, plot development and pace are perfectly tymed. Love this story (starting to love it more than S2). I’m so glad Bette went to see Kit before talking to Tina. Their conversation was great and so much needed. This should give Bette the clarity she needs and the confidence to welcome Tina’s opinion and presence in her life. Just wonderful — (Thanks for offering to e-chat with me, I’ll email soon).
Busted.. (hehe) they are both so busted. This will be a good conversation – Tina is going to really melt..
yeah I bet everyone in the planet know when one of them walks in. Anyways, I’m glad she is telling tina first instead of kit. Lets see what tina thinks of franklins nice play.
great chapter. I feel for Bette, she would rather have Tin as a freind than not have her at all, that’s understandable when you love someone so much
I love so much your story. Thank you
The comments are excellent but nothing surpasses the creative tale you are telling. It is such a complete work, rich storylines, realistic dialogue and emotion that just hangs in your throat. Fine job with this chapter and the story at-large.
I really like this new Bette. She is so open. Talking to Tina first about the new position, the old Bette would have accepted the job then told Tina about. This new Bette is GREAT!!!
How do you do it? This just gets better and better!
I am so happy that Bette and Tina are going to start dating agian. Just like the old days.
Great great great chapter. I can’t wait for the conversation, hope they have a moment… :) Please post soon
Excellent chapter as always. Looking forward to the conversation with Tina and Bette. You are a wonderful story teller! Thanks for this!
Busted! You mean Bette really blushes? I’m shocked!
I was hoping Bette talk to Tina about the new position. They are sharing/growing together.
I will need to find another word for “great” story!
Thanks!
Now, off to sleep land for me!
Boldly blushing Bette and Tongue-tied Tina – the new action figures, sold only as a set. WeHo house and model baby included.

Absouletly loving the continuation of the story, let us get them truly back together soon, as both know that is what they want. Looking forward to your next chapter post it soon please.

JWet,
Yea, girl, look like there are fun times ahead for Bette and Tina. Love the way you have Kit showing Bette the wood from the trees.
It is about time that Bette picks up on the vibes that have been emanating from Tina for a while now. First Shane and now Kit have told her to trust in her emotions and Tina’s however once bitten and twice shy is how Bette feels. I can totally relate to the nervousness Bette feels. Hopefully being told the same message from her sister and trusted friend will knock the sense up inside her head. Can’t wait to get Tina’s view of events.
This is such a magnificent and captivating tale. It involves the audience and has taken them on an adventure which you nurtured and developed brilliant.
Mucho Kudos to you.
Riddles for today:
Will Bette’s Alpha mode traits come back given this new exciting opportunity? Is Franklin trying to do a ‘Tiger Woods’ on the golf course? (As if). When did Kit study under Yoda? Does Shane know? Did Bette tell James about her conversation with Franklin or is the poor boy still hanging on? Why does the water always go down the plug hole in the one direction?
Roll on tomorrow coz I want to know what Tina will say and do once she hears Bette’s news. Will this be a mutual decision???
You Loyal Fan
PS – will email you one of these fine days. Promise.
Morning Jwet. I read your reply and I should have known better than to take a sip of coffee. Took me a while to get it off that laptop from laughing so hard. No we didn’t have any snow here in North Carolina. So I bounced off the roof when the ladder went bye-bye and landed on a wooded deck on top of said ladder. It was rather embarrassing b/c I’m retired from police, fire and rescue. So as the mophine kicked in that’s what I told them. Looking for Santa. Being left handed it sucked. While drippling soup down my chest trying to figure out how the hell right handed ppl eat like this. Brushing my face missing my mouth was fun too. So after telling you my fun story. Now you know why I love your chapters so much. It’s all I have until I recover. Sit and read and dream of finding that same kid of love again. You give me hope. :)
Will Franklin be getting the time to work on his golf game or even golf swing….Bette listen to your big sister, sometimes they are right and who wouldn’t be glowing or blushing if they were enterting into a relationship with one Ms T Kennard…
Thanks for the update Jwet.
Yes, a visual…::winkwink::…lol…I’m glad I could make you laugh! Awesome chapter Jwet, as always! Hopefully Kit got through to Bette and what she told Bette sunk into her brain. More, we need more…pretty please, with sugar on top!!
Both Bette and Tina are offered high powered highly responsible positions. What’s going to happen with little Anna? Who’s minding the baby? Franklin wants to step away for more time with his family. Maybe Bette should heed his comments and do likewise.
I read this as a transition chapter to the next phase in their relationship. I’m liking where this is going and only a little worried that the ‘foundation/Jackie’ shoe will fall and Tina will discover Bette’s role in her new career. I hope not, they are doing so well.
Looking forward to the next chapter and really, they are getting along so famously, the sex can wait until they are really solid. You are entertaining us very well with their gradual courtship.
Thank you!
Good chapter. Bette and Kit have a little sisters talk is very good. Now it’s time for Bette and Tina have a little talk and see how thing go. Post soon, thanks!
Wonderful chapter as usual…I look forward to your storys everyday..please post soon
