Great Unexpectations Chapter 23
Tina’s own inner self took her to the future. To a possible future in which she might need help with her own daughter some day. Imagined she had no one else to turn to. Imagined the fear and desperation that brought Faye to them. Her one last glimmer of hope. Would Tina go to someone who considered her an enemy for help? If there were no other options? Yes. By all means. As a parent, you do what you must for your child. You bury your pride. You make amends. You beg. Anything for your child.
All through the night the problem was being worked while Bette and Tina obliviously slept. Holding each other. Spooning each other. Even in deep sleep their bodies craved each other.

The alarm clock sounded loudly signaling the beginning of another day. Tina reached over and pushed the snooze button while Bette stirred quietly. The baby monitor remained silent indicating that the rooster had not yet crowed for Angelica. She sleeps like her Mama B, Tina mused with a smile. She snuggled into Bette and buried herself in Bette’s neck. Kissing it gently, trying to rouse it’s owner. Bette smiled as she woke to Tina’s affections. "G’morning", she mumbled, rolling to Tina and hugging her.
"How’d you sleep?", Tina asked, still snuggling. Not yet ready to surrender Bette’s body. As it turns out, Tina had no say in it. Bette’s warm hug would not allow a surrender. "Very well, actually", Bette answered, trying to wring the sleepy out of her slight tone of surprise. "How about you, T? Did you sleep ok."
"Mmhmm", Tina nodded, smiling. She loved waking up in Bette’s arms.
Loved having Bette in hers. Loved being the first person she saw in the morning and the last person she saw at night. "Do you want the first shower or the second?"
"I want the one you’re in", Bette said, squeezing Tina flirtatiously, eliciting a tiny giggle from the blonde. "Mmm. I think that can be arranged, babe. Let me check on Angie first." She leaned in for her morning kiss and was not disappointed. Bette’s luscious lips devoured hers fully.
After a moment’s indulgence Tina removed herself, somewhat reluctantly, from Bette’s clutches to check on their daughter. Bette lazily went to the bathroom and turned on the hot water in the shower. Tina quietly opened the door to Angelica’s room and found the child sleeping soundly. Her tiny lips pursed with a determination yet to be explained. So innocent. So vulnerable. While gazing at her daughter, Tina realized that her decision had already been made. Of course they should help Faye. Help Cora. It was now absurd to think there was ever any question about that. She stepped back from the bed, not wanting to wake her sleeping Angel.

When does the other shoe drop?
Red, honey, you are doing a fabulous job with this story. With the last bit of info from Faye it makes me a bit leary for the girls and Angie. That bastard would stop at nothing to stop anyone from doing anything to help Faye and Cora. However, he does need to be exposed and arrested. This is a mighty subject now with the possibility that the girls could be hurt. We don’t want that, now do we. Politics makes strange bedfellows has never been more true. PPS
WOW!!!! I do hope that nothing happens to B&T and there family. Thanks PPS
I’m glad they’re helping Faye and all, but still, I worry. B&T are ace, and so is this story. And lol @ the potpourri! I got that for Christmas once. It’s amazing how well I was able to fake that grateful smile. (Though I’m sure the 2 or so glasses of wine I had with Christmas lunch helped immensely.) I still have that potpourri, it sits, unused, on a closet shelf. One day, I’m sure I’ll have a potpourri-based emergency, and then…! That grateful smile will be real! Ah well, I’ll keep reaching for that particular star. I will say though that I am honestly grateful for your post, red, cos I love this story. Post soon, and thanks!
Mostly loved the morning scene. The Bette and Tina goodness..and playing with their little girl. Hope this Faye recon mission won’t be too taxing on their relationship and family life.. PPS.
I loved the morning scene too. As you (so beautifully) write them, Tina is truly the yin to Bette’s yang. Like others, I’m worried that the morally bankrupt would-be senator will screw things up for them.
Let’s rock and roll!
Expertly written; I stand in awe of your skill with the English language. Plz keep B, T and Angie safe. PPS
Scary and dangerous coming!
Well this has the possibilities of a great big mess. Lot’s of drama ahead. Love how the story is moving along. Hope Richard has his own “cleaners” available. Thanks for the post.
This is getting a little scary! B&T are so in tune with each other. I love it! PPS!!
Your writing is so descriptive that it captures me and helps me to visualize the scene. Brilliant. B & T are going to love their enemy, huh? That is such a strong verse from the bible and one that is difficult to abide by. I hope that they will be successful in their attempt to help Cora. In doing so, they need to keep their family safe and Mr. Buckley sounds like a sleaze. Any father that would put their own best interest before their own child is **and I quote*** “An obstacle that needs to be removed.” Make sure he is dealt with, will ya Red? PS.
