Tina (she thinks to herself): “Hmmm. There’s her number. I wonder if I should call and thank her. Or, will she think I am being stupid? Yet, I don’t want her to think that I am blowing her off. I could just call her real quick.”
Tina starts to dial the number to the CAC and immediately feels flushed and nervous. It’s been quite some time that a women had this affect on her. She had been with Erica for such a long time, that she forgot about feeling this way.
Ring, ring, ring. After each ring Tina’s heart began to beat faster and harder. Her heart was beating so hard that she hardly hear . . .
James: “Good Morning. Bette Porter’s Office.”
Tina: “Yes, may I please speak to Bette Porter?”
James: “May I tell her who’s calling?”
Tina: “This is Tina Kennard.”
James: “One moment please, let me see if she is available.”
James comes running into Bette’s office like the building was on fire. His antics scared Bette as she was reading through some e-mail.
Bette: “*****, James! What is the matter?
James: (out of breath) “There is a Tina Kennard on the phone for you. Isn’t that who the box was addressed to?”
Bette: “She’s on the phone. Right now? Holding?”
James: “Yeah, line 4.”
Bette takes a deep breath. Suddenly her butterflies are back and in full swing.
Bette: “That will be all James, please close the door.”
Bette looks over to the blinking light on line 4, picks up the receiver and pushes the light.
Bette: “Hello, this is Bette Porter.”
Tina: “Bette, it’s Tina.”
Bette: (trying to play it cool) “Tina, hi!”
Tina: “Hey, I just got a special delivery a moment ago.”
Bette: “You don’t say?”
Tina: “Yeah, someone sent me a copy of my new favorite black and white.”
Bette: “Oh, they did? I bet it isn’t a copy though, I bet it’s the original.”
Tina: “Bette, it’s beautiful and I absolutely love it, but I can’t take your original.”
Bette: “I want you to have it. Just a little house warming gift.”
Tina: “I don’t know what to say. Thank you.”
Bette: “You’re very welcome. I hope you enjoy it.”
Tina: “Oh, I know I will. It came at just the right time.”

Wow, Fabulous chapter..Hopefully Kit can fix everything.I will so miss this story come back to us sooooooon…THANKS
Most people would have been more gentle,Knowing both were at fault. Not our Bette, she just will say what she is thinking. The cow part was the crowning touch or was it the pig thing. She will learn at some point in her life that being nice is better than saying nasty things to people Pay back is a Bitch… thanks
Wow I could see that coming. Bette needs to worke on Tina a little bit and eventualy she will come around,I hope. Don’t keep us waiting to long I realy like this story.
Yup, I was kind of waiting for that to happen. I’m hoping that Tina can calm down and take the time to realize that Bette was truly sorry. She didn’t try to make excuses she totally admitted her less than ladylike behavior. I’m hoping they can work thru this and get to know each other. Post soon, please!
Oh fuck this is sad and hope they will find way back to each other. This is awesome and love it. Please post soon, thanks!
OUCH! That hadda hurt. Great chapter. Like your author’s name to.
come on now..tina’s bein kinda dramatic bout sum words!! granted she is kinda vunerable…come portard…lets fix em!!
payback is sure a bitch – erm guess bette deserves that and tina shud realise that ppl are not perfect – and bette is being sincere when apologising for the whole thing. however, i can understand why tina was on the warpath being worried for her friends etc but i am sure they find their way to each other again ;) – love ur story and u take care :D hve a nice weekend cant wait for the next post. erm, bette shuld learnt to eat humble pie !
I just caught up with your story. You have an excellent beginning with these two. I can’t believe this is your first time at writing, because it sounds like you have been doing this for a long time. Great job! I will definitely keep reading this one. Kiitos (that’s thank you in Finnish).
please post again! I didn’t think tina had it in her nature to be that mean!
Oh, come on, Tina get back out of the car, and go back and talk to Bette. She was having a bad day when you bumped into her, and you well you just have a lot of shit going on, but Bette will make you feel better. Great story, love how Kit keeps threatening Bette, and Bette ever the romantic, getting dogwood that a hard flower to come by in California.
jesus. i mean bette had a fit but dayum tina is right there with her. you say you didnt want us hanging welll you are girl. this is worse than not knowing who it would be when they met. tina needs to take a chill pill and go and apologize. maybe bette needs to talk to kit and have her talk to tina cuz whoa lots of screaming going on. better post soon. this is not the place to leave it. ;)
K, so Bette has some work to do. this was a great chapter. Tina will need to realize the real Bette has slowly emerged when in Tina’s company and that raving Bitch that day was not the real Bette Porter. i love your story. can’t wait to see how B convinces T to give her a chance.
Whoa, knew that was coming, but I thought they’d laugh about it….guess I was wrong!!!! Now T is gonna be off to be there 4 her friends, and miss her date with Bette. And Bette has sometime to think of the many ways she can make it up to Tina…..POST SOON!!!!!!!
Hey I agree with kg LOL! Now it’s the time that Tina see real Bette OMG! payback is a bitch Bette your really deceived that LOL! go Tina Thanks Please continue post soon.
wow the sh*t has certainly hit the fan. love this story. bette is sincerly sorry but sometimes being sorry is not enough. she needs to show tina
Uhoh. . you’re not posting for a couple days? NOOOOOO!!! Please post again soon, I love this story! They can get over this, Tina just has a shit-load going through her head right now.
OOh, that was sooooo good! I loved it!!! Thanks! I know Tina will eventually come around…but, I think it was great the way that she let Bette know what it’s like to be on the receiving end of a real biotch! LOL! CAn’t wait ’til your next post!!!!
nice post
Can Tina get any more dramatic than this? Yes, Porter was an ass that day; but her actions since then has shown Tina just how soft and caring Bette can really be.
Also, Tina wants to be mad that Bette didnt recognize her as the person that spilled the smoothie on her; yet its ok for her to use her eyesight as an excuse. Just because she couldnt see Bette clearly doesnt mean Bette’s voice had changed.
wow..completely caught me off guard. hopefully they will work it out..Bette need to work on that..!
K
Well shit. Great chapter. I hope Tina calms down and talks to Bette. She needs to learn how to forgive and forget. Love it.
What Bette did was cruel and inappropriate however, we all do and say things sometimes that do not reflect who we really are. Tina was a bit overboard. But then again….her stress level is elevated after hearing about Vanessa, much like Bette’s stress level was at the time of the accident. Maybe Tina should take that into consideration. Hope Tina gives her a second chance. Very good story.
well i have to agree in part with Tina Bette deserve that her behavior was awful and terrible and if wasnt Tina it will be with someone else and that person will never get an “im sorry” Bette have to learn to respect somebody elses feeling BUT Tina was to tough too and hope they could talk and try to get through this misunderstanding..great chapter as always please post soon!!!!
Wow that was intense! Hopefully tina will be able to forgive bette soon!!!
Great chapter – love this story and your author name. Tina can forgive B…right??
Did I miss something? If I remember correctly, the chapter with everyone at Bette’s house already had them discovering who they were… when Tina was on her way to the bathroom and Bette was coming out of her bedroom, they nearly bumped into each other and said about crashing into one another one the street earlier that morning….? Have I missed something?
That was quite some over-reaction from Tina! Christ! Anger management number on speed dial I think.
