"Maybe we should just do a TV spot", Tina suggested. "Or run an ad in the paper. You know, the personals? Something like: "Cora where are you?"
"That’s a great idea", Richard said. "If you wanna get her killed!! Don’t you think he’s having the papers watched? And TV? Are you fucking kidding me!?"
"Ok, hey!", Bette interjected. "That’s enough! We’re just trying to brainstorm, ok? No ideas get rejected so just calm down. This is how we come up with… better ideas."
"Thanks babe", Tina said slightly insulted.
"T. Come on. He has a point. Although he didn’t have to be such an asshole about it."
"Thanks babe", Richard said. Bette looked at him with a quickness that would have won any Old-West gunslinger a reputation to be proud of. The hint of the smart-ass twinkle in Richard’s eyes disarmed her immediately and she couldn’t help but to softly laugh. He exhaled a thankful smile and quickly looked to Tina, who was fighting a losing battle with her own smile. They broke into an easygoing group chuckle.
"Sorry", Richard said. "Truce?", he offered. They sealed it with the clinking of their water glasses and finished their lunch. The success of that day’s search was equal to that of the previous days’. And all of the days before. They gave up for the night and went to their respective homes. It did not go unnoticed by Tina that with each unsuccessful day of searching Bette was losing a bit of herself. She was slowly giving into failure and defeat. The sparkle in her eyes that somehow managed to survive immediately after Faye’s death had all but diminished now. She seemed exhausted. But even that did not stop Bette from sneaking out of the house in the middle of the night while Tina slept. She walked the downtown streets alone. Slipping into bars, scanning the crowds. Spying on the nightlife. Looking for any hint of Cora. "Have you seen this girl?" was as automatic now as "please" and "thank you". Each morning at about five a.m. she would slip back into bed and try to catch an hour or two of sleep before the new day of failure began. The extent of Bette’s exhaustion was such that she thought Tina would not even notice her lover gone from bed. How wrong she was. On the third night, after slipping back into bed at five-thirty in the morning she was greeted with a booming "Elizabeth Porter!!" delivered by an angry Tina voice.

Woah. Now what? Loved the Intimate Bette and Tina stuff.. even the breakdown was good.
Yes!! To the nolten hotness at the beginning of the chapter, to the surprise ending, (and also cos you’ve posted again), that was one of those triumphant-fist-in-the-air moments. It’s weird, but I think Faye’s death is making Bette and Tina stronger in a way. And now they’ve found Cora! I hope they can keep her safe. And I hope their efforts to keep Cora from the Black Hats and that jerk Mr Buckley doesn’t involve anything that lands Richard in jail… I’m still wondering: what was the favor Tina wanted from Kit? I’m stoked you’ve posted again, red. Ace chapter, thanks!
Erm… molten. (See? It was that hot I can’t type for my own brain mushiness.)
Yeh!! They found Cora, or Cora found them. It’s all good. Glad Tina was able to forgive Bette so quick. PPS!!
Awesome cliffhanger! I love the Tibette bonding too. Every time their relationship starts to go off track, they have the good sense to talk things out.
Great chapter! I especially loved the scene where Tina gets Bette to admit that her “sneaking out at night” wasn’t the smartest thing to do. But I can truly see Bette doing anything to avoid failure. Good thing Tina is there to support her. PPS.
Finally, they get a break. Thanks to Bette’s sneaking out and Tina getting mad at her and unable to sleep. If Tina had not decided to run and meet up with Richard they would have never come across Cora.
Thanks god finally Cora is here and now take her home and tell her everything. Glad B&T are ok. Please post more, thanks!
jp22, I can tell you what Tina wanted Kit to do, “bring Angelica to Michigan.” So happy to see this post tonight. And equally happy that Cora bumped into them, now hopefully they can get her back to California w/o her father knowing where she is and keep him from her. And maybe Richard can see that the bstard is arrested. Thaks for posting. PPS
Woohoo, they found her! Now comes the difficult part of convincing her to stay and listen. Great update. Please don’t scare us by telling us you are done with NC-17–you write them so well :)
Hey RE, I am totally GOB-SMACKED! After everythign that the gals and Richard have been through it is awesome that they have forund Cora. I reallly can’t wait to see how this all plays out. I really am hopeful of a happy ending as Tina just asked Bette to marry her. That would be the most magnificent finale after everything that they have been through. The beginning of this chapter demonstrated yet again why Bette and Tina have to end up together. Even when Bette resorted to old behaviors and tried to protect Tina, Tina calls her out and get Bette to admit her failing. This is Tina’s true power; getting to Bette’s heart and soul and making her face everythign that she is. Truly awesome. Can’t wait to read more of this fabulous Fan Fiction. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
What a chapter, red! Not to put myself in the horndog catagory, but glad you continued where the last post left off. So,so sexy and loved Tina continuing to ask her nightly question. I almost hate that they found Cora knowing that it signals the impending end to your fabulous story. Thanks for such a wonderful read!
well red, you’ve out done yourself again. the natives don’t seem as riled by this cliffhanger, maybe because it din’t end with Tina’s hands in bette’s pants! Excellent twist with the running into Cora, literally. it’s funny cause that’s what happens when i lose something – i look and look and can’t find it and then when i least expect it, voila, there it is right in front of my face. can’t wait to see what happens next but it better not be a month before i do! PPS!!!!!!
u sure worked that chapter. Great stuff.
This was a great chapter from beginning to end. Can’t wait for your next post. Thanks.
WOW!!!! Page 1 was so HOT!!!!! I am glad they found Cora. Thanks PPS
I love that Tina forced Bette’s hand and broke down that wall. I can’t wait for Tina’s surprise, I am assuming Kit is bringing Angelica to them. But most of all, WHOO-HOO, Cora has been found. A new round of drama is about to begin I am sure.
