Great Unexpectations Chapter 18
After the song was over Bette looked to Tina. "Thanks for coming with me, Tina. I really didn’t want to do this alone."
"I know you didn’t Bette. And I didn’t want you to do this alone either. I’m just worried though. I think she’s up to something. What if this is just some big elaborate scheme to get us alone so she can finish what she started at that debate?"
Bette smiled. "For one thing T, I really don’t think that’s it. There is something going on with her, I’ll agree. But I don’t think it’s anything like that. For another, ok. Let’s say she does start spewing her filth. We’ll just politely excuse ourselves, go have really loud sex in her bathroom, and then leave."
Tina laughed at that suggestion as they entered the long winding drive to Faye’s house. "That’s a deal." Her laughter soon quieted as they rounded a turn and came into a full view of Faye’s house. It was an expansive two story Victorian. It featured an elegant yet cozy wrap-around porch and turret design corner. From outside it looked large enough to have at least seven bedrooms. The landscaping was immaculate. This house reminded her of when she accompanied Helena while she was house hunting, though Helena’s style was more contemporary. She almost mentioned this to Bette, but thought better of it. "Shit", Tina said in awe of Faye’s home. "We might have to do that anyway. Looks like she’d have really nice bathrooms."
They held hands as they walked to the door, their chests pounding heavily, the feeling of walking into the lion’s den beginning to crash down on them. They stood at the doorstep nervously, trying to gather the courage to ring the doorbell. Bette lifted her hand to push the button when Tina suddenly blurted, "Wait!". Bette froze and looked at Tina. "Good luck, Babe." Bette leaned in to kiss Tina softly on the lips. "You too, T", she said with a quiet smile. Bette rang the doorbell.
Within moments the door opened to a nervous, smiling Faye Buckley. Tina instinctively squeezed Bette’s hand tight and moved slightly in front of her. Faye was pleased to see the protective stance that Tina had in regards to her girlfriend. Partners, Faye.They’re called partners, she reminded herself. She smiled widely and said, "Please. Come in."

i think i know where this story is going-i like it
Oh red, I’m so intrigued by your tangled little web… I’ll have to save my guess for the next chapter. Love your writing!
Faye Buckley is still a b_ _ _ _, and so is her mama. Thanks!
I’m even more confused than before, but will continue to read anyway. This is a very interesting tale. PPS
Great update and a little confusing. Still can’t figure what she is up to and I hope she is not planning to hurt the girls in some way. Maybe a foundation to help the LGBT community. PPS
Well, I’m officially not the sharpest tool in the shed because I have no idea what Faye is up to. I mean, I can guess that she wants to give something huge to Bette and Tina, probably the print Bette sold when she had no j-o-b but other than the obvious I’m dying, I’m sorry, I’ma jackass with a ton of money, I’m drawing a blank. Besides you are way to clever for something as obtuse as that so I guess I’ll have to wait and see like everyone else. Besides I’m too depressed to ponder it any further tonight! LOL.
Man this story gets more intriquing with each chapter. I get the feeling that Faye is dying or just maybe Faye may end up being Bette’s mom (no just kidding). Something is definitely up here.
Maybe I need something as obvious as Blue’s Clues cos this is all a bit Where’s Waldo? for me… I haven’t a Scooby as to what Faye’s up to. But natch, I can’t wait to find out! Still don’t trust her, her motives, or her throwing money at anyone affiliated with a Porter to buy away her guilt. Anyway, I really liked the description of Bette As Driver… it rang so true. I don’t think Bette As Passenger exists, and if she does, she must be fearsome. Excellent as always, red. Thanks for the chapter.
faye better give that print back; i still don’t like the lady.
If this chapter was to let us know what Faye is up to, you still have be stumped. But, that ok, it just means I’ll have to wait to see the connection between Bette and Buckley and why Buckley bought the Kiki Smith print. More to look forward too. Thanks for the update and PPS.
Great writing as always, but Faye’s intentions are a mystery to me. I get very bad vibes from her though.
Good chapter and what the hell is Faye up now!
so faye has kiki smith print…what’s going on? what secret is she hiding?
I am completely hooked! PPS
I have no idea where this is going, but I can’t wait! PPS!
I think you really have the characters and writing so connected realistically and I am definitely gonna put my ff vote in for you next time. It seems to me that you know the show inside and out and I can understand every nuance to your situations. Gotta say the best series I’ve enjoyed so far…..keep up the good word and oh yeah don’t take your time!!!!
Can’t wait to see what’s next. Love B&T’s easy and loving banter. Thanks for the post :)
I’m anxious to see where you’re taking this story. What is up with Faye? Please post again soon!
WOW!!! I so can not wait to see where you take this. I am hooked, Thanks PPS
Hum, I have a little problem. I’m french and I have absolutely no idea of what “a nestled potted fawn” could mean. And the web translations are awful, so would someone please explain this to me. Because I feel I’m loosing a big part of the story here…
I had a feeling that Bette saw the print she used to own. Are Faye’s hands cold and clammy because she’s dying? Please, I need more! PPS!!
I have no idea what Faye is up to.. But can’t wait to find out. Love this story. Angie has great taste in watching Blue’s clues. I used to love watching that with my son. lol
The mystery (reformed Faye or evil-as-ever Faye?) deepens, leaving your readers more hooked than ever. The inventory of Bette’s driving habits was brilliant! Kendra, it’s spotted fawn.
Kendra35, the fawn thing is the Kiki Smith print that Bette sold. :) No idea what Faye is up to.
