I smile at her departing figure, and out of the corner of my eye, I see Jodi creeping down the staircase. I avert my eyes and take off after Tina, swinging her around slightly so I’m not facing my scorned lover.
“How about if you help me out, unless I’m horning in here?” I ask, almost desperately.
“You are.” She says as she picks up a black olive from a swiftly moving serving tray passing by us. “But the food is good.”
Chuckling at her straight-forwardness, I glance around surreptitiously and catch Jodi’s eye. She takes a sip of her martini as she stands near the grand bookcase in the living area. Playing coy, she lifts her glass and mouths that she’s just going to have one and then leave. I turn back towards Tina and grab the black Chanel cardigan sweater I’m wearing at the shoulders as I start to get warm. I lean slightly closer to the sweet blonde as if I’m telling her classified information. “See, I’ve got this little problem. I’ve got a stalker.”
“Hmm, it doesn’t sound life-threatening.” She quips. God, she’s quick-witted. That’s such a turn-on. The party is still going strong and someone bumps her slightly into me but I can’t say that it bothers me.
“But I need a cover. I need for you to pretend we are having a scintillating conversation and you are wildly entertained. I know it’s tough.”
“I’ll improvise.”
“She’s right across the room and she’s burning a hole in my back right now, isn’t she?”
Tina looks over my shoulder. “Red dress, strappy shoes?”
“Yes.”
“Wow. She’s really staring at you.”
“Shit.”
“And she seems to be growing…unhappier by the minute.”
“Hmm.”
“I think she is the saddest girl to ever hold a martini.” She says forlornly.
Like a moth to a flame I’m drawn in by her peculiar demeanor and again, all I can do is just stare and smile at her with an idiotic grin on my face. She returns my smile, but then breaks my gaze and looks over into the den. I follow her line of vision and see Alice approach a couple of girls and introduce herself.
“Come with me.” Without thinking, I grab Tina’s hand and whisk her across the apartment, out the open entryway and towards a second staircase.

Enjoyed your story even tho i know nothing of vanilla sky.This epihany that BETTE finally has regarding her company and the warning from a trusted friend makes for an enjoyable read.TINA appears to be the alter ego of BETTE the uncanny ability to read her and is spot on in that drawing.BETTE has some life altering/style changes to make so let’s see what happens becuz for a one off you left a lot unanswered yet it was thought provoking in a good way.
Thanks for your comment, Dunn! Perhaps not having seen the film makes for a better read, although I know what you mean by all the unanswered questions. Even though this is a one-off, I have not completely ruled out possibly coming back to it in the future for a follow-up. There’s no plan to do that right now, but it is always an option. I appreciate you taking the time to read it and offering your feedback!
Great art work!
You never disappoint me. I enjoyed it a lot. You do know how to tell a tale. Thanks
You are too kind, wkm. I’m very happy that you enjoyed the story. Thanks for showin’ the love!
Hope you continue to post stories. I do love your tales.
This is so cool and sexy! I never watch Vanilla sky, but I’ll be damn, I think BnT suit the part so well.
Perhaps I prefer my readers not to have seen the movie. It’s definitely a weird one. But I thought these scenes of a hopeful budding relationship worked with Bette and Tina in those roles. Glad you liked it!
Not seen Vanilla Sky but don’t feel it detracted from finding this story fascinating. I really enjoyed the read and hope that you do consider it as a base for more as this budding relationship between my favourite couple certainly has potential.
Thanks
Don’t think I’ve ever had anyone comment that my stories were ‘fascinating’ so thank you for the compliment Sassy! A follow-up isn’t completely off the table, but just not actively in the works at present. Appreciate you taking the time to read.
Waittttttt! No way!!! I love Vanilla Sky and the older one Abre los ojos! What can I say I can’t resist a naked Penelope Cruz (>ω< )!!!
It wasn't THAT weird to me tbh, I freakin cracked up and cried my eyes out when Penelope said to Tom "I'll see you in another life when we're both cats."
Ahhh old movie, good times! Didn't think I'd see the gay version of the story. Nicely done!
Hahahaha! I suppose the best reason to watch those films would be a naked Penelope. She’s not really my cup of tea, I’m more of a Salma Hayek fan, but she was great in these films. Like I said, I have a love/hate relationship with it. Thanks for reading, hope I did the story justice since you seem to be the only one who has seen the movie so far.
MEEEEOOOOOWWW!
yeeeeeeeeessssss….. you know how long I have agonised about seeing this piece come up…. I miss you my friend. I feel we have resumed our game of tag… you posted… I posted too! guees it’s your turn again ;0) xx
Brilliant, as always, Mell. I have missed your amazing storytelling. I hope you will give us more, if not this story, something else. Oh wait!! Don’t you have something else you’re working on? Like just a chapter or two left? OMG, you do…. Yay!!
Look forward to whatever you write.
ps
Salma Hayek? Nice.
Yes, Salma Hayek. I can’t quite put my finger on it (but I can definitely put my finger in it :p), but I have a thing for slightly older women. Just something about them I can’t get enough of. And thank you for your very kind words, even though they aren’t very subtle. I’ll try to write something or two somethings when I can.
GREAT!!! I know and a like Vanilla Sky (with Tom Cruz and Penelope Cruz) . Vanilla Sky is a Hollywood remake of another great movie – the spanish movie “Abre Los Ojos” (with Penelope Cruz and Eduardo Noriega) And I like so much your story , Invincible with Bette and Tina :))) THANK YOU!!!
Thanks, Leonora! You seem to be one of the few readers who have also seen the movie and bonus points for having seen the original Spanish film!!
I loved this new version of Vanilla Sky,
I saw the movie however vaguely lenbro
some scenes, it would be interesting if you
continue to write its version.
All Stars.
