    Chapter 76 – Her Fingerprints

     

    Seeing the great mood that Bette was in just made James
    cringe all the more as he knew what Bettes reaction would be before he ever
    uttered a word.  Letting Bette get into
    the lobby before he pounced on her, James was greeted by Bettes million watt
    smile.

     

    James, how are you doing this glorious morning? Bette
    asked as she looks around the lobby.  She
    was taking the time to appreciate the sunlight as it shines in and plays across
    the large mural on the wall.

     

    After a moment of looking in wonder Bette realizes that
    James has not answered her.  She knew
    something was probably wrong but she was just in too good of a mood to let it
    bother her.  Turning to look, Bette once
    again smiled at James.

     

    Its OK James, just tell me.  The way I feel today the museum could burn
    down and I wouldnt care. Bette says to encourage James. 

     

    Seeing Bettes good mood and hearing her words still didnt
    ease James position as he stuttered a little as he answered Bette.  Well uh uh Bette its well its
    the shipment the one from Philly.

     

    Bette could almost see the sweat coming off James brow.  James calm down.  It will be OK, honest.  Are the paintings damaged? Bette asked
    patiently.

     

    No uh just the crates. James gets out and almost braces
    himself for Bettes outburst.

     

    I should have known Philly always was low class. Bette
    says with a chuckle as she realizes what James is getting at.  Well just send the bill to Philly and just
    make sure the CAC maintains our standards. Bette says as she just lets this
    problem breeze off her back.  James Im
    sure you can handle it.  If anything else
    comes up just let me know.  I think Im
    going to take a stroll through the North Gallery.  With that Bette turns towards the gallery,
    leaving a stunned James to her back.

     

    James just stares at Bettes back Wow was all he could
    say.

     

    ***

    As Tina pulled the large glass doors to the MYV Foundation,
    she herself was only about 10 minutes late. 
    As she steps inside she takes a moment to look around.  In that moment Tina realizes Bette built this.  The impact of that takes her back for a
    moment.  What an awesome thing to have
    done. 

     

    Tina moves into her office and sits down at her desk.  She begins to contemplate what the MYV is now
    that she knows Bette was the force behind it. 
    As she sat there thinking she realizes that there really is nothing that
    says Bette Porter, nothing at all. 
    This foundation is all about helping the under privileged.  Thats its stated purpose and that is what
    all the activities center on.  The more
    Tina sits here and thinks the more Tina realizes it was in fact a truly
    self-less act by Bette.  This realization
    brings a warmth and happiness that runs through her, almost as if Bette herself
    were caressing her heart.

     

    Jackie made her way into Tinas office sometime later.  Popping her head in  Hey, so did your evening turn out OK?

     

    Hey Jackie, Thanks for taking care of the pictures and
    letting me run out that way.  Did you get
    out of there OK then? Tina asks as she leans back in her chair.

     

    Oh yeah, The pictures went well.  You know they will look so great on our Wall
    of Awards. Jackie says.

     

    Thats it. Tina says almost to herself.

     

    Jackie hearing Tina just looks at her Whats it?

     

    Tina looks up to Jackie with a knowing look I was just
    sitting here marveling at how there is nothing here that stands up and shouts
    Bette Porter but you know the wall is it. 
    It shouts Bette to me its the one thing that has her fingerprints all
    over it.

    1. Jwet, loved this chapter both women just feeling the love. I have to say at first I wasn’t sure about the reconciliation conversation a couple of chapters back, I thought it went too smoothly but now I’m thinking they were so ready to be together again that Tina’s reaction makes sense. She knew deep down that Bette had changed. Thanks for your writing and all the time you give to it and therefore to us.

    2. Wonderful chapter, I agree with the others I think Jakie will be shocked a bit by that statment… Bette was cute running in the hall naked lol… hmmm yeah more bette running naked would be fun!

    5. I can almost hear the faint strains of “Oh what a beautiful morning…oh what a beautiful day…” as I read this chapter. Thank you for an angst free (unless your a naked Bette), sugary sweet, delightfully loving chapter. Anna is adorable, Irene is just too cute for words and Jackie is probably thinking to herself “did I just hear her correctly?”. So, is everyone going to know it is Bette behind the foundation before Alice has the chance to spill the beans? Hee hee hee.

    10. Hey Jwet I’m just got back Anyway I’m so happy to see you’re Awesome Story WHOA! Tina and Bette it’s getting better I love it Jwet that was so Beautiful As Always Jwet Thank you I’m still reading WOW! very Good job their getting along together Please post soon.

    13. wonderful depiction of a happy Bette — the world seems like an easier place when you feel loved — well done — great chapter — thanks

    15. Ahh Jwet, after reading today’s post, I too will have a “glorious morning.” Thank you. I hope writing this chapter felt as good to you as me reading it.

    17. am i first today? yeah…ohh i love that happy family..lol..i hope it will be this way for a long long time, BUT who knows what in your mind..lol..great chapter Jwet..thanks

    19. GREAT JOB!! I can’t wait to see Jackie react to Tina knowing…I am sure she will be releved..Please continue I am so happy Tina sees how much Bette did and for everyone except herself…Post soon I love this story…

    20. anna is simply adorable… hope that she’ll make more appearence in the upcomin’ chaps… gr8 chap as always anyway… *counting down till chapter 79!! LOL*

    21. i’m as giddy as a school girl. thanks so much for this. it was awesome. al is just gonna have to stew on this one. i don’t even she can break the spell. you are so great. loved it.

    23. Hey Jwet, oh i think Bette has also left her fingerprints on Tina’s heart for ever..what a lovely sweet and beautiful chapter Jwet…ah!
      Have a great weekend.
      Thank you.

    24. Jwet,
      Another marvelous and wonderful chapter; the easy addition and acceptance of Bette at Tina’s house by Irene was glorious. Irene is definitely the right choice even if she was way down on Bette’s list. Great way yto show that Bette, too, is human and therefore fallible.
      Dialogue strolls along with no hurried or impatient need to reveal all the information at once. The relaxed ambience and naturalness of Bette and Tina together again is a sight to behold and inspire too.
      Now what questions do I have?
      Is Bette is training for the 2008 Olympics for the streaker’s 100m? Does Tina have a feather boa and some slutty music that Bette can dance to? Would HMS be involved? Will James be able to do any work after being entranced by Bette’s good mood? Does he need a kiss from a Prince?
      Did Bette leave smudges on the pictures? Has Tina been watching to much CSI and can now distinguish Bette’s fingerprints from everyone elses?
      Maybe some of these will be answered in your next post.
      Make it soon and keep me smiling at all the love in da house.
      Have a wonderful weekend and catch loads of fishies for your dishes.
      Your Loyal Fan

    25. Your story is just so beautiful!! And the details that you throw in make each character ( and the situations they find themselves in) so real. I just love it!! Thank You!

    26. JWET,YOU OUT DONE YOURSELF AGAIN……MARVELOUS CHAPTER..JACKIE’S JAW PROBABLY DROPPED TO THE GROUND, WHEN TINA SAID THAT ….THANK YOU…

    27. Oh, Jwet, this chapter just melted my heart! I love the way you are able to bring the feelings of love that Bette and T have for each other out, beyond these pages and into our very own hearts as well. I don’t know how you do that but I like it!!! Thanks!

    28. No words. I have no new words to express how wonderful this story is. I always look forward to logging on and hope to see a post by you. It’s just that wonderful!

      Thanks for painting such a beautiful picture of Bette, Tina and Anna. And I think Irene is so cool!

      Have yourself a great weekend!

    30. I love these two, I haven’t mentioned recently how I just so lurve super cool, super sexy and now so super cute Bette, I’d just love to be a fly on that wall when she’s running for the bathroom in the birthday suit…. How cute would that butt look! I predict great things happening! It’s just this feel of de-ja-vue I’ve had recently, its amazing! xx

    31. Lovely chapter Jwet,I agree with angelak— Jackie was probably in temparary cardiac arrest after hearing Tina’s remark, and yeas M99 Bette did leave her fingerprints on Tina’s heart as well as other body parts. But Tina’s heart is just going to MELT when she finds out that Bette was present at Anna’s birth (PLEASE Jwet make it so). I would also like to see Tina just walk up to Bette and give her a mouth watering kiss when Alice spill the beans about her knowledge about the foundation ( Yes, Alice my baby developed the great foundation and I can’t love her any more because of it.). Thank you Jwet and please post again soon.

    32. I love your story, please a bit more sex, we would all like to hear from you. You have been such a brilliant writer, hopefully, in the near future, we will seee somthing in print.

    33. Thanks for putting some clothes on your main character…married women are trying to read here…just can’t have a beautiful naked woman running around aimlessly, lol.
