Chapter Two
Melvin Porter frowned at the brief that he had just been handed. He stared at the clerk
“You are joking “
“Sorry Mr. Porter – we are shorthanded and Mr. Douglas said that everyone available has to lend a hand “
“Why are we shorthanded?”
“Of course, “Brenda the clerk crossed her hands and smiled at the affable Melvin Porter – he was such a nice man with lovely manners -not like some of them in the Prosecutors office.
“Yes?” Melvin could tell there was a story coming
“Everyone was at the banquet for the mayor last night “
“Not me “
“No – where were you again?”
“My daughter owns an art gallery and Rosemary and I were there for her opening night “
“Was it good ?”
“It was marvelous – my daughter is a very talented young woman “
“Is she pretty ?”
“Beautiful – you have met Rosemary ?”
“Oh yes -and she is beautiful “
Melvin raised his eyebrow at Brenda encouraging her to get on with her story
“Sorry Mr. Porter – well everyone at the Mayors banquet who ate the crab pate are now suffering from food poisoning – Mr. King has been taken to hospital “
As Melvin loathed Jack King he was hardly going to be sending him a get-well card. He nodded for Brenda to continue
“So, we are down about 40% in numbers so everyone who is in is taking a case “
“Even Mary?”
“I am just on my way to hand her a share “
Melvin’s face twitched and Brenda smiled
“I know – I told Mr. Khan but he was adamant about it “
“Okay – – give me what I have to deal with “
Brenda left Melvin with half a dozen cases and he pushed aside the work that he had been planning to deal with that day. Melvin had worked for the State Prosecutors Office for over twenty years and he loved his work – loved helping to send baddies to jail out of harm’s way. In the last five years he has reached the heights that did not require him to be in court day after day. In fact, it had been over 18 months since he had prosecuted a case – a high profile cop killer. His reward had been promotion and reviewing the work of younger lawyers to ensure that their cases did not fall foul of any sort of appeal based on administrative cock ups. He enjoyed the work and loved talking to younger lawyers about cases — but now it looked like he was going to have a few days in court – good – he would enjoy the change in scenery. And for a man who had put a cop killer behind bars for several life sentences what was hard about getting a bag snatcher found guilty

this read is very familiar, Tina in bad relationships like bette’s fleeting trophy arm candy women. beg me t ask, is this the story where tine decides to join Emma’s firm and become part of the legal profession? and bette and Tina do meet and begin a relationship with the blessings of everyone.
*****( ahh but I digress. the story I recall is when Emma does have a wife Kate whom Tina adores until Emma and Kate’s relationship ends due to infidelity on the part of one partner,, emma’s relationship with Tina was volatile at best on the better days, Tina ends up joining Emma’s firm, starts a relationship with bette and Emma begins to resent bette and Tina’s relationship due to…hw can it be said, “jealousy” of bette being with Tina? )******
this story seems to be a combination of two stories combined with one. thank you for sharing.
Nice one, Ally. Did you write it before “One and only”? I like the re-use of the parents’ characters.
I’d love to read more of it. Wonder what you have in mind for Bette and Tina. Feels like Helena might bump into T first and set her eyes on her. The parents’ matchmaking could go wrong. Or even funnier if Tina meets Bette while running in Central Park and they start dating without their parents knowing.
Your first chapters were enough for me to be very curious of where you might take this story, so please continue.
Thanks for this New Year’s posting!
Hi allyemmerson,
Happy New Year ????
This story sounds familiar and mm mentioned about it. Emma’s wife Kate was still alive and it ended because Emma cheated. I think that Tina went to work with Rosemary and not with her mother in the firm. And if my memory is correct, Rosemary and Emma or Kate were involved in a romance in the very past, college or present.
Any way, i am very happy to see you back with a Tibette story. You are a fantastic writer and i am currently rereading The L Wing. Any chance you are going to finish that one like you did with New York Minute a few years ago?
Welcome back!!!
Yes I remember that story but if my memory serves me right, Bette and Tina met when they were way younger, The background was more or less the same….
But I love this new version, it’s really great and well written as usaul with you Ally !
Thank you for this and please post very soon.
Ally~ I have always adored your writing! I remember this story and am excited to see it revised Happy New Year!
Hope you are still writing and post New and Older revised stories in the coming year!

Happy New Year! So happy to see you post. I don’t care if it is a rewrite. I love anything Bette and Tina. New York Minute is forever my favorite. So bring it on.
Love this story! One of my favorites you wrote.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Ally!
I thought I posted earlier today but I guess it didn’t take…
I remember this story line loved it then and I know I will love the repost!
I hope you continue to write New and repost old stories I absolutely love the way you write!
Happy New year!
Terri
Thank you for the chapter!
I wonder if plot twist about Bette and her jokes about asking out Emma is not inspired by Gen. Q and some crazy fans who wants that Bette to hook up with this young version of her – Dani?
What a great start!!! I love your stories. You’re a wonderful storyteller. Can wait to read more. PPS.
Hey your back!.. great.
Interesting story and I know I have read these characters before but I loved them and even more now because they are in a new story. A BnT story I feel a slow burn coming on.. lol especially if it’s taking this long for them to meet and now Bette’s suspicious of her mom setting her up but the only good thing is we know she will be surprised that there is a younger version she can make a real life with .. both their futures are about to collide they just dont know it yet.. why can’t very parent be like these..lol thank you and welcome back.
Hi
