Great Unexpectations Chapter 19
—
The morning sun shone on Bette’s exposed face. The gentle wind played with her hair. Before she even opened her eyes she was smiling. She could smell the coffee. Tina was up. Soon the aching of her back reminded her that she’d slept outside all night. In a lounger. Without the comfort of a soft mattress, plush pillow, or lovely blonde. When she opened her eyes, she saw her lovely blonde sitting opposite her. Staring at her. Red eyes peering over a cup of coffee that was being sipped. Bette tried to smile, but Tina’s eyes were burning a hole in her stomach. I fucked up. Shit!
"Hi, T", she said warily, attempting to be cheerful.
"What’s going on, Bette?", Tina asked fearfully with tears threatening to spill.
Bette’s heart ached. This feeling of disappointing Tina again, of scaring her, was not what she wanted or intended. She reached for Tina to pull her close, but Tina sat back, not allowing the contact. "No. Tell me what’s wrong."
"Nothing’s wrong, Tina. I promise. I had a bad dream. I couldn’t sleep. I didn’t want to wake you, so I came out here and I fell asleep. I swear that’s all it is. Please believe me."
"Bad dream, huh? What was it about", Tina asked coldly. Not yet satisfied.Shit! There’s no way I can tell her that. "
"It doesn’t matter, T. It was a stupid dream. Besides, it was too weird. It wouldn’t make sense."
"Well, if it was bad enough to get you out of our bed for the whole damn night I want to know about it." The tone of voice worried Bette more than the words. Tina was being rigid. Unrelenting. Even toned. Not angry. Not hysterical. Too…rational. It meant Tina was not going to let her get away with this one. Even if it was never resolved and presumably put aside, it would be one of those things that would be filed away in the recesses of her mind. It may be months from now or years from now, but someday it would be used against her. A reminder of when she again shut Tina out.
Bette knew about Tina’s recesses. Just as Tina knew about Bette’s. It was a two way road with these women. Bette knew that as sure as she knew anything, and she determined that her own little filing cabinet was likely what fed her bizarre dream.

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.
