How We Do Things Here – Chapter 2
“Porter’s got a crush” Alice revealed with importance, knowing the reaction it would ignite. Dana’s thoughts were wiped as a shocked smirk crossed her face. She looked towards Shane who was sporting a similar expression; This was rare.
Bette Porter was no stranger to attractive girls, in the same way thunder is no stranger to lightning. The only reason she wasn’t cursed with a reputation as Shane, was because of her tendency to actually date the girls she got with. At least for a few days. That was enough, it seemed, to deflect her rising to full “Player” status. Bette always tired quickly of the girls, they were all too dumb or too immature, and she’d pull it to a close with some poetic gesture or statement that always meant much more to the recipient than it did to Bette.
Never, in the history of knowing the Brunette, could any of the girls recall a time when she got a crush. It always followed the same pattern:
Bette looked. Bette chose. Bette got. Bette ends.. And so on.
Dana, Shane and Alice each wondered silently how long it would be before Porter tired of chasing the blonde.

Bette walked through the school halls, it was unusually quiet for a lunch period. She pushed open the door to the Girl’s Room, replaying her overreaction in the Lunch Hall, and she felt it collide hard with something on the other side. Bette hurried through to see the girl slumped on the floor, seemingly the ‘something’ Bette had inadvertently injured.
Bette leapt down to Tina’s side, attempting to apologise sincerely but also feeling vastly thankful for the excuse to talk to her. She opened her mouth but found herself rendered speechless by the unexpected appearance of the Vision.
“I’m – uh..” she managed honourably. She stopped her mouth as she realised Tina, too, hadn’t removed her eyes yet. A bond resumed forming for the second time that day and neither present made any effort to stop it.
After a silence that was long but not necessarily uncomfortable, Bette opened her mouth to begin a continuation of the previously failed apology.
“I’m s-“ but she noticed Tina’s nose, instead, “Bleeding” she said, vaguely.
“You’re bleeding?” Tina looked puzzled, until she felt for the spot Bette was pointing at. “Oh..” she said, quickly understanding. The slighter taller girl stood up fully and offered her hand. Tina, despite nursing a bloody nose, could not pretend not to notice the shocks running through her body. There was suddenly a host of animals parading over her gut, and something dry encased her throat with what felt like the year-long drought of a barren land.

I love where this story is going:)and the introduction part was great. PPS
Hey AD I liked how you had Bette open that door hard for her to knock Tina to the floor. And Bette being dumbfounded that she could not speak,LOL. Loved how the girls knew that Bette liked this girl/Tina cause of her reaction how Shane was describing tina’s t-shirt. Great chapter!!
I loved that Bette damn near took Tina out with the door. What a great way to start a conversation…*makes mental note*
Aww, what a great chapter! I seriously can’t wait till the next one. Well done.
LOOL! The part where couldn´t speak was funny! Great chapter! PPS
Great chapter, I am enjoying both your stories immensely. Ittickles me when Alphabette gets all shy and unsure of herself. It shows she is just as human as the rest of us when it comes to matters of the heart. I know all kinds of things get in then way of writing so get back to us with new chapters as soon as you can.
Awww Bette’s a bowl of Jell-O around Tina. Wait, that sounded good in my head, now I’m not so sure. Anyway please post more soon. :D
Love where this is going. PPS!!
I hope the friends don’t blow it for Bette by freaking Tina out. Thanks for the update. Totally loving this story. Hope it stays this adorable. Post when you get a chance.
Excellent writing, great storyline…so hurry back.
Great update. So finally they get to talk. Wonderful. But the door. Oh hat a way to meet your new soon-to-be girlfriend. Great fun. PPS
You can’t stop there!!! Great story. PPS.
Please continue with this story. It is cute and light with plenty of humor. High School is very scary and when the prettiest girl in the school wants to help you learn the school then you are set for life.
That was great!
