“Wow” Dana.
“Sweet” Shane.
“Yeah”
Bette and Tina
approached the counter together. Looking
up to consider what they want to order, Bette is about to order when Kit comes
out. Seeing Tina and Bette standing at
the counter she makes a bee line to intercept them.
“Hey there you two.” Kit says as she extends her arms to
pull them both into a bear hug. “What do
I owe the pleasure of seeing both of you this morning?” Kit says with a smile
that spreads clear across her face.
“Well” Tina starts as she looks to Bette and then back to
Kit “we were just on our way to work and had a few moments to grab some coffee
on the way.” Actually they really just
wanted the extra time together before they separated for the day.
Bette just nods with Tina’s explanation “Yep”
“Well great I think I saw the girls come in a little while
ago. Let’s go sit with them I’ll have
your stuff brought over. Come on.” Kit
says as she turns both Bette and Tina around and walks towards the table with
an arm around each of them.
Approaching the table all the girls where immediately
energized as this morning was just getting better and better.
“Hey” Bette says to the group as she raises her one hand in
hello. “We thought we would catch a cup
before we went to work.” Thinking she needed some explanation.
Shane jumped up to get a couple of extra chairs pulling them
up as Kit took one and Tina the other.
As they all sit down they immediately fell into a comfort zone that was
a throw back to the day when this gathering was a common experience. They all almost started talking at once.
The banter back and forth would lead you to think that time
had stood still as they picked up and not missed a beat. They were all feeling good when Kit spoke up
“Hey Little Sis just exactly when are you moving back home?”
At this question a hush settled over the table as Bette
looked to Tina for permission to reply.
Nodding ever so slightly to Bette, Tina just smiled a Mona Lisa
smile. Bette seeing the signal cleared
her throat “Well actually today. I was
planning on taking off work early since its Friday and packing up my stuff.”

Thank you for writing this story. It makes me smille every ones in a while. I’m looking forward for the next chapters.
Hey nice one. This is a wonderful time for them and you’ve written it well. More please;0)
Bette…Bette…Bette. This is why movers were invented. To take care of these pesky little issues.
Great chapter nice build up! and nice humour with poor James! thanks
There’s no place like home!!!

love this Bette, also Alice, she is on cooking duty. James is such a good person. Thanks
Alice, my love – they may be just clothes and suits – but just look how mighty fine they look on Ms Porter!!! Ahhhhhhhhh. Great feel good chapter Jwet!
Jwet! It’s such a great story that even the “quieter” times are a joy to read. Thanks, and yeah, I’m breathing a little easier now. ~lol~
“Second chances are a miracle of grace. They don’t happen often…” I know this quote isn’t actually part of this chapter but I’m struck by it every time I read it (and that must be at least 6 or 7 times now). It’s so true and so simply summed up. This is what I love most about your writing – time and time again I come across a little gem like that and the simple truth of the statement is so moving. Thanks for writing.
I’m all smiles – just what Monday needed!
What do you mean you’ll be back in a few days….you ruined the latest Harry Potter book for me, so the least you could do is post everyday :-). Now, about this chapter…how cute are B&T and D&A? So you’ve been thinking about Helena have you? Ghee I hope that didn’t put you into a bad mood…lol.
I’m not 100% sure what “goofy smile” means -pls remember my poor English- but I think that again I have it on my face right now.It just feels so good to see Bette’s home.
i have to agree with sweetpea theres no place like home and not just a house cuz Tinas heart is Bettes real home..i have no words to say how much i love your story..its amazing now bring it on BBC with Alice..lol.thanks Jwet
Ya, Bette’s going home! And yes Jwet, I will be coming to NY to meet you guys, Jacky talked me into it and my flight across the pond is all booked. I’m really looking forward to it
As usual, this is great. James is so nice. And finally moving home. Great chapter, please post again soon.
few days? Oooookkkkkk… dane and al get me each day… and you keep smiling and loving this story more and more. Jwet you’re absolutely fantastic.
Hey Jwet we MISSED your Story Thanks for writing back Anyway WHOA! it’s getting better and better your Story it’s not more STRESS to Read I LOVE IT only T&B OK jwet Thanks keep it going PLEASE.
JAMES is the BEST..WONDERFUL JOB.THANKS
Jwet,
Delightful. JK Rowling’s loss is definitely our gain.
This story rocks as Bette and Tina take the final steps to reconcillation and rekindling their reationship.
You have written a magical tale that has transfixed your readers with awe and wonder.
The simplest of scenes have become guiding beacons for Bette to safely traverse the stormy waters that her life had become. Through soul searching and honest, open communication Tina will lead her to the safest of habours. A place to lower the anchor and dock awhile.
As for the rest of the gang, they live and breath in this story and add so much enjoyment and a real sense of family.
Only Helena needs her ass whipped but I am sure that you will ensure that she is paid back in full for all her interfering and mischief.
Please post more real soon as I can’t wait.
Your Loyal Fan.
And the world sits right on its axis again…..thanks for a great journey….
That was great!! BUT I know you are not letting us off that easy…So is it Helena turn next or is Alice gona put a damper on things tomight…Post soon..You r the best…
more..longer chapters…please..post soon
Wow, the above comments are awesome. I agree with everyone, but Hackgirl and Moonshawdow nail it for me.
loved it!
Happy to see that Alice was only suffering a little mindless fog instead of being dead to the world in a carbohydrate coma. With just two simple words you manage to conjur up a visual that both makes me cringe and laugh…Big Bopper. For a jock, Dana is pretty resourceful, isn’t she?
Just a day in the life and you still make the simplest things endearing. Bette and Tina’s shared Mona Lisa smile, their friends happiness, Bette’s suits and James…our dear, dear James. Your story is like taking a cross country tour…so many wonderful things to see and take in…and even the rest stops are fun!
So, will it be Bette, Alice or Tina that take the wind out of Hurricane Helena? Can’t wait.
hey there- i just caught up on the last 5 or so chapters. life has been insane of late causing me to be a bit MIA but wanted to let you know how much i am enjoying your story. thanks!
Great update. Finally Bette’s going home, and the gang will be together again as it should be. Awesome.
Jwet – How you know when a story is good? It is good when after many “readings” it still makes the reader feel the same emotions as the first reading – like your story!
Thanks again for writing and posting your stories.
Oh yeah – Sorry Chase, my bad; I shouldn’t have ask the Potter question (I did learn who, though)
It’s nice to see them all happy.
One word – yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Love it!
