Great Unexpectations Chapter 1
She opened her eyes and smiled at the view the sunshine coming through the window afforded . Jodi. "That was fantastic" she said. Jodi smiled back and leaned into another kiss before quickly pointing to the clock. Bette nodded. Today was the day that Bette was flying back to L.A. and she had to catch a cab for the airport in 90 minutes. As they got out of bed they decided that even though time was of the essence they would shower separately. In the last week "shower time" had quickly descended into "2 hour love making time". No time for that today. As Jodi showered, Bette finished packing. She had done the bulk of it the previous night but there were still those little odds and ends that always seemed to get left behind.
An hour and fifteen minutes later they were both showered, clothed, and heading down the hallway to the elevator, luggage in tow. As Bette waited for the familiar "ding" she could feel a growing sense of uncomfortableness between Jodi and herself. Two days ago they’d had a small argument because Jodi informed Bette that she didn’t "do airport goodbyes". Bette remembered feeling hurt that Jodi wouldn’t be seeing her off but, if she had to be honest with herself, she was now silently thankful. These dreams ofTina were throwing her all off and the sooner she had some alone time to think things through the better. We’re friends now. It’s taken us so long to get to this point and I have no intention of messing that up.
As the cab pulled up outside the hotel Bette set her carry-on bag down and grasped Jodi’s hand. She pulled her into a soft kiss. "I’ll see you next week", she smiled. "I love you" Jodi signed. "You too" said Bette as she opened the door and waited while the cab driver loaded herluggage into the trunk. "I’ll call you when I get back to L.A." Jodi nodded as she struggled to smile. Moments later Jodi stood watching as the cab drove off. Her memory drifted back to earlier in the day when she and Bette were in bed. She knew she had pleased Bette, but she also knew it wasn’t her name that Bette cried out. Bette’s mouth didn’t make that familiar "O" shape as it should have. She sighed while walking back into the hotel, letting a small tear roll down her cheek.

Good start, I have wanted to know what Bette’s reaction would be if Tina told her the truth………..PPS
WOW ! What a great start.Hope you post more soon.Thanks ;)
Oh, this such a good start. If only this would happen in season 5. Please continue!
Happy Tina came to her senses and said something to Bette. Great start. PPS
Great start. You must continue.I do believe this is a little how it’s going to end up.. although not so quickly. I think that either Jodi will realise that B&T still have intense emotion for each other and force Bette into going back to her. OR B&T will move on, and finally close the chapter on their relationship.. giving them both a chance to move on – Bette with Jodi and Tina with someone new. I do believe that if the latter happens IC will have them dicuss the end of thier relationship. That’s how I see it in my head, although I could be completely wrong :) Anyway, post more! Soon!
wow that was the bomshell she dropped on bette hopefully bette will open her eyes and see what’s right in front of her.. pps
Great Beginning!!!I can’t wait to see Bette’s reaction. I hope it will be a good one.
Yeeeeesss! Finally what should of happened/ what should’ve been said at the end of S4. PPS. The ball’s in your court, Bette. PPS.
Weeeeeeee! I don’t think I was clear enough, so I will say it again. Weeeeeeeeeee!
So, so, so good – please post soon. I love this story! :)
I like this Bette who catches the subtle nuances of what is happening around her – it shows how she has changed while still remaining the same, if that makes sense. Looking forward to where you’re headed with this. Great job on your first efforts!! PPS
Ding ding ding, folks we have a winner, introducing the brand new S5 writer of the L word………I wish!!
Wow! :) Great!
I like the start of this one. Please post soon.
That’s it Tina, start as you mean to go on. No beating round the bush. Ace! I am intrigued, redhorse. Post soon.

Damn! that was good – I’m anticipating more.
Yey…a new season five story!! And, a fabulous start at that!! Thanks!
ohh wow right on!!
How could you possibly think this would suck?? Brilliant beginning… would love to see it on the show.
Awesome start. Bette will be shocked, but lets see if she’s willing to face her true feelings. I mean, she’s making love with Jodi but thinking its Tina. Hello, big sign, far bigger and more of a statement than 17 Reasons.
A terrific beginning. I think Mr. Dickens would approve.
That was great!
Wow, I love the story already, pps. I can’t wait for Bette’s response.
way 2 go…hope honesty pays off…i so do not like bette with jodi or anyone other than t…pps
Lovely start. I really like the scene with the shampoo and familiar scents. Please all powerful writer, do not dash our hopes against the rocks. Help Tina and Bette find their way back to each other…More , please, soon?
This is a great and promising beginning. Please go on.
Great Start!!! I am a long for the ride!!!!! PPS
Yes a happy story is what is needed. I like how you have Tina finally verbalizing what she should have said all along. Now let’s see what Bette’s response will be.
GRAT START!!!!I hope That can take placein Season 5!!!PPS
