"Well, I guess I’ll have to keep that in mind", Bette said biting her bottom lip and raising her eyebrows flirtatiously.
"Please do", Tina flirted back.
Bette looked at her watch. "Damn. I have to get back, T. I’ll, uh, see you at home?"
"Absolutely."

Bette was driving to her last destination before returning to work. She studied the card Kit had given her before the barbeque, trying to match up the address on the card to any of the passing buildings. Finally spotting it, she parallel parked and set out at once to finish this last bit of business. Entering the lawyer’s office space she walked to the receptionist’s desk. The receptionist was busy on a call, giving Bette a chance to look around at the elegantly decorated waiting area. Leather, teakwood, marble.
"May I help you?" the conservatively dressed young woman pleasantly asked.
"Yes. I don’t have an appointment, but I was wondering if I could speak with Mr.," she looked at the card for confirmation. "Mr. Jenkins."
"May I tell him what this is regarding?"
"Just tell him it’s Elizabeth Porter, here for Katherine Porter."
The young woman punched a few buttons on her phone before taking her leave of her seat. She disappeared down the hall for two minutes before returning with a smile. "He’ll see you now. Down the hall. First door on the right."
Bette was slightly surprised that she wasn’t put off with an appointment for the following week or month.
She followed the directions and knocked on the first door to the right. She was beckoned to enter by a dry, humorless voice. As she entered, Bette was immediately given the same first impression of this man that her sister had arrived at. Not a day of pleasure in his life. Poor wife.
"Mr. Jenkins, I’m Bette-"
"I know who you are, Miss Porter", he said not harshly. Not friendly. Indifferently would be the only way to accurately describe it. "What can I do for you?"
For reasons unknown to her, Bette began to feel like a child brought forth to the principal’s office after misbehaving in a fourth grade math class. She resented that feeling immensely and began to bristle. She smoothly removed the contribution receipt from her purse. "I’d like you to give this to Faye Buckley. My sister cashed the check you brought to her. This is how she spent the money. Tell Faye that she can use this to get herself a nice tax deduction and to please leave Kit, Tina Kennard, and myself alone."
Mr. Jenkins looked at her blankly. He wasn’t accustomed to being ordered around and didn’t take kindly to having it come from a woman at that.
Seeing that he was giving no response Bette walked slowly closer to him. She looked into his grey eyes and she did not blink. "Have I made myself clear?", she asked coldly. She did not wait for a response, simply slapping the receipt down on his desk and turning to leave.
After she left the building, she exhaled deeply. She put on her sunglasses and smiled proudly to herself while getting into her car. That should take care of that. She did not notice the storm clouds gathering in her rearview mirror. Back in his office, Mr. Jenkins employed both hands. One picking up the receipt and the other dialing his desk phone. He studied the receipt closely as he waited for Faye Buckley to answer.

excellent posting, love every sentance just wondering what the heck is that Faye Buckley up to ???pps
Red I love the way you write…so intriguing, and so descriptive. This was an excellent chapter. You don’t have to have bar room brawls, BBQ’s and coins for it to be exciting! *wink* However, having Bette Porter strutting naked around the pool once it awhile does seem to heighten the excitement level just a tad! LOL! Thank you so much Red! More please!
I wonder what the good lawyer and Miss Buckley are up too.
Definitely not a let down. The light, fun, happy, romantic Bette and Tina are wonderful to read. Not everything can be a big turning point.. but sometimes its even better that way. PPS.
Why is it Tina and Bette can imagine each other dressed in certain ways, or doing certain tasks and it always leads back to sex. Wait a minute I’m talking Bette and Tina, of course it leads to sex. Gotta love them. Still wondering what Faye is up to. It appears she’s trying to make amends but why?
What next? What next? huh? huh?
i’m really loving the way you write, i just got caught up with this whole story properly, and you’ve got me hooked!! its not often i read a story as its written, im so impatient that i usually go for finished stories but yours is just too good to not get hooked straight away!! im intrigued to see what faye buckley is up to. i love the way you capture all the characters perfectly, please post another chapter soon!! i don’t think i can take too long a wait!!

Storm clouds? I’m worried. Faye Buckley is an ill wind that blows no good. Thanks!
ooooh, grease monkey Tina could be quite hot. I love your happy, sexy, in love Bette and Tina. Still trying to figure out what our sneaky little Faye is up to…hmmmm. Great post rh!
Hrmmm… storm clouds and Faye Buckley. I like the sound of neither. I *do* like the idea of a glistening Tina, all smudged and dirty and…. Um. Yes. I’ll leave that train of thought now… I quite liked (read: loved) this chapter, as I’ve quite liked (read: loved) all of your other chapters. I’ll be eagerly waiting for the next post, thanks, red.
OOh the foreshadowing! LOL. I’m not sure why you thought this chapter would be a let down cause it aint little missy! You’ve just moved the story along and judging by the nature of the comments got everyone hooked for the next wave. What IS Faye up to??? Why is Jenny such a pain in the ass? What exactly did Tina have for luch? All of this has us on the edge of our seats, anxiously waiting for more! Please do not doubt your abilities to amuse, entertain, and enthrall, they are ever present! PPS
Good chapter, love B&T!
ditto to what chelseagal and anngie mosby wrote. excellent as usual. i TOLD you she’d get towed.
mmm all the loving and all the intringue, thank u…
I love all your posts, even the ones without brawls and BBQ’s :). Glad to see Bette and Tina so infatuated with one another. I hope they never lose that feeling. Let’s get Tina home :)
Great update, can’t wait to see what the heck Buckley is up to.
Mmmmmm Grease Monkey Tina…*dies*
I am so loving this. Way to go Bette!!!! I just hope Faye takes the big hint and backs the F*** OFF. Thanks PPS
Faye Buckley is a pain in the ====. Does she want Bette or Tina. That right hook of Tina would stop me. I’ll wait.
What kind of scheming game plays Faye Buckley. I hope Bette and Tina be able to see through her game and resist
Like Audi, I love those angst-free moments in which Bette and Tina simply take pleasure in each other’s company. Is it the calm before whatever storm Faye Buckley is brewing? Bette seems just the type who would hum to C-Span!
