The only lit window in the second floor of the house looked down onto the driveway, and more specifically, Bette’s car. Faye always looked at the moon one last time before going to sleep. This night’s view brought more enjoyment than the moon ever did. She chuckled to herself as she readied herself for bed. Though she was concerned at her guests’ rapid departure, she was thankful it did not damper their playful affections with one another.

They arrived home, still giggling, to find Angie and Alice fast asleep. Angie was laying on the floor, on a hastily made mattress of folded blankets. Alice was asleep on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn resting on her stomach. The TV screen showed that they had been watching ‘Finding Nemo’ on DVD. The movie now over, rested on the menu screen, urging the viewer to ‘play’. Tina went to the kitchen to get a dishtowel to absorb the heavy moisture in her hair and clothes. Being marginally satisfied that she wouldn’t wake Angie, she went to the child and carefully lifted her from the floor. Angie never stirred, only snuggled her head into the crook of Tina’s neck. Rubbing her back tenderly Tina neared Bette for an opportunity to give their little girl a good night peck on the head. "I’m gonna put her down", Tina whispered.
Bette smiled as she watched her girls leave down the hallway. She turned her eyes to the sleeping Alice on the sofa and smirked. She moved the popcorn bowl from stomach to coffee table, next to Angie’s animal crackers. Bette stood over the sleeping babysitter and tried to wake her. "Alice", she whispered. Alice gave no response, except for the twitching of her nose. "Hey", Bette said slightly louder with a gentle nudge. Nothing. Bette shrugged as she resorted to what she knew what would work best. She formed a ring with the thumb and index finger of her hand and harshly flicked Alice on her forehead.
"Fuck!", Alice cried out at the, quite literally, rude awakening. She wiped her eyes and found Bette looking down on her. "Jesus, when did everybody forget how to wake other people up?"
Bette grabbed Alice’s legs, pushed them aside and plopped herself down on the sofa. "Angie didn’t eat any popcorn, did she? She has to be careful of those kernels."

Hey everybody. I don’t know why this is 8 pages. it should have only been about 3 or 4. I think the site is skimping on words per page or something. I’m sorry if you saw the 8 and were mislead to think it would be a longer read. out of my hands. -Red.
red….This chapter was wonderful. Betet better talk fast to Tina. PPS.
Redhorse, can I just say that you are one of the cruelest people I’ve ever met(?)!! Here I was thinking I would finally have the answer to what Faye really wanted and no longer am I searching for closure on that one. I am also now searching for closure on Bette withholding her thoughts/fears from Tina! JK. I love this story, PPS!
Oh that’s ok Red, I loved the idea of getting 8 pages of this story. What the hell does the fawn mean. Have I missed something or am I just too tired to think. At any rate, Bette is in a hell of a lot of trouble with Tina and she had better explain quickly. With flowers, candyb and champagne. Tina is pissed and been crying to boot. PPS
Red, you’ve got me so intrigued. I must say that Bette’s dream sucked, but Bette should have just told Tina everything. Tina would be relieved to hear what is actually wrong, because I’m sure that what Tina’s imagination has come up with is much worse. Here’s a big thank you that is owed to S! and another thank you to you red! Can’t wait for more!
What an excellent chapter! Thank you. By the way, I thump using my middle finger and thumb. Have I been doing it wrong my whole life? I think I have alot more power that way.
Aww. This chapter was sad. Still so much work to do on their relationship. PPS.
Great chapter. Buckley has awaken a lot of fears in Bette. Hope she shares with Tina.
Just loved the sprinkler scene… too funny. I’m no closer to figuring Faye out and must say that this peeping-Tom act she’s got going on is a bit creepy. What’s with her watching B&T?? Guess I’ll have to wait for the reveal… Love your story Red.
it was wonderful; so loving their interactions…hate faye with a vengeance for ruining their good tomes 2gether…and so soon…
shez!!! i meant ‘good times’ 2gether.
OK great chapter, but Bette better get it together quickly and let Tina in on whatever it is before the drama starts for them again. We really need to know what FB is up to so please don’t make us wait to long.
I’m anxious! What’s with this print? And Bette’s “breakfast” was Tina’s way of telling her she’s in the dog house.
Way to go Shane!! Bette needed that. She better find out her info & then get down on her knees and beg forgiveness. Quick!! PPS!!
I see those two going through a rough time soon unless the waves can be smoothed out. I can understand Bette’s dilemma but she somehow needs to say something to Tina. Bette’s dream really was weird and scary.
Hope drama not coming, let Bette talk to Tina!
Bette had better get Faye figured out… else Shane’s going to have to do a lot of ass-smacking. And LOL @ the “emergency bagel”… I have a freezer full of “emergency food”. Loved the chapter, red. Thanks
excellent chapter. bagels with freezer burns. painful. the dream was too. so far, bette has been able to overcome her various mind hurdles, so she should be able to deal with this one as well. or fear more freezer burns and shane’s boot. thanks!
Your stories are just so much fun….Spinklers, flicking Alice in the head, frozen bagels, and smacked in the a** to mention a few of the key moments. I have no idea where the Faye thing is going but am enjoying the ride to find out…of course, this is only because I have faith in the APW. (She will help Bette fix it, before she screws up. Right?)
LMAO@Shane! XD
Bette needs to get to her woman real fast and tell her what’s going on. I so love Shane. Thanks Great Chapter PPS
Poor Bette. She’s terrified of disappointing Tina, but she’s doing just that by not communicating. The sprinkler scene was a hoot! Can’t wait for the big reveal.
