    Great Unexpectations Chapter 1

    They settled on the sofa while soft music played in the background. Rufus Wainwright was crooning something about cigarettes and chocolate milk as Bette tasted her wine. "Mmm. This is a nice one. Is this new?"

    "Yes, it is." Tina answered. " I’ve been going to this different market on the other side of town. It’s by the studio…" Tina trailed off. By now she couldn’t even concentrate on small talk. She couldn’t stop noticing how great Bette looked. She was wearing a pair of jeans that hugged her tightly in some areas and stayed loose in others. She finished off the ensemble with a cute simple white v-neck T-shirt that didn’t quite reach the top of her jeans. There was approximately a half-inch of exposed midriff that had Tina’s full attention. As Tina’s eyes journeyed up Bette’s body she quickly realized that she had been busted. Bette smiled with a glint in her eye. "See anything you like?"

    Tina froze, embarrassed. She stuttered. "I I’m sorry."

    For the first time that evening they fell into an uncomfortable silence as they both tried to avoid the subject that was looming over their heads like the sword of Damocles.

    "So, um when did you get back?" Tina asked, knowing she was treading dangerously close to any talk of the trip. She couldn’t help herself though. Bette’s demeanor had been very unreadable tonight and Tina was looking for any sort of clue to what had transpired over the last week in New York without actually having to ask. So help me God, if she cries about missing Jodi I think I’ll die.

    "Um, a few hours ago. Sorry I didn’t come over right away. Guess I was sort of jet-lagged."

    "That’s ok. I’m just glad you came over." She glanced at her feet, "I’ve missed you."

    "Really? I wasn’t sure. I have to say, you’ve been acting kind of weird this past week."

    Tina shot her a glance as if to ask ‘what do you mean?’ But she knew damn well what Bette meant. Anytime that she called the phone would quickly get handed off to Angie. "Mama wants to say ‘hi’ sweetie" she would say and she would stand close and listen to Bette trying to coax a word or two out of Angie with terms of endearment. The words struggled but not the smiles and Tina was often left to narrate loudly to Bette. "She’s smiling Bette, keep talking", and so on. When Angie proved that she was tiring of the phone she would urge her to "say goodbye to Mama".

    1. 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!

    2. 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

    3. 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.

    4. 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?

    5. 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.
