“It kinda farted black smoke when I accidentally spilled water on it.”
“Kinda?”
“Okay, it sparked electricity a few times and then farted smoke.”
The glare Bette shot her friend with could’ve cut glass.
“But hey, look at the bright side, at least our house didn’t burn down.” Alice flashed her an angelic smile, scurrying out of the room as their leader threw a pillow in her direction.
Laziness, violence, broken appliances and flying pillows.. yet another normal morning in the F4 household.

Later..
Microeconomics class, Yale University.
“..such as that of equity, or Marxian analysis. Now can somebody tell me..”
Lured out of her mental fog by the professor’s booming voice, Bette blinked and took a swift glance at her surroundings – realizing with a grimace that she had disappeared from reality yet again. Her right hand was still clutching her pen, frozen on top of a blank page on her notebook – poised to write and take down important points in the lecture. She sighed at the sight, disappointed in herself as she looked down at her neglected notes. How long did she space out this time? She gazed at the powerpoint slide that was being flashed in front. An angry groan fought its way out of her lips when she realized that she must’ve missed more than half of the lecture. The last thing she could remember was the professor giving an introduction to market failure, and now, it seems that he was way past it and was now discussing the meaty parts of the topic. Dammit, Bette cursed inwardly, her attention span had been zero to none lately. She always seemed to be zoning out at the oddest times, and when she would shake herself awake, she would discover that a lot of precious time had already elapsed.
More than a little OCD when it came to her well-organized notes, she hated it when she failed to jot down important details and information. The knowledge that she missed something always made her antsy, and she couldn’t concentrate until she found out what the neglected term was – or in this case, terms. Normally, she’d turn to the person sitting next to her and ask. But since she was flanked on both sides with her slacker friends – with their short attention spans and aversion to note taking, she couldn’t copy and ask what she had missed. Fighting the urge to tell them a thing or two for their uselessness, she blew out a breath and allowed Sam to continue drawing a caricature of the professor and Shane to listen to music on her iPod. It’s times like these when she yearned to have Tina with her in class. At least the blonde had the common sense and self-discipline to listen and take down notes.

Oh wow, I see some drama sneaking up on our couple, but I know you’ll keep them safe and happy! Thanks and PPS!
right, kate, director of my A… will learn the hard way that nobody flirt with Tina. Bette will tell her lol. Great post please don’t stay away too long Alch
Rut roh. Bette’s gonna start sitting on tree branches so she can live amidst green, and Kate Arden shows up. I’m relieved that you made a Kate a musician and not a filmmaker, but it still sounds like there is drama ahead.
After reading this chapter, I have enrolled myself in lamas classes. I feel that the breathing technique will help me get through the next few chapters. I’m starting to feel numbness, not sure where. Thanks for the post, once again, you rock!
Oh no Kate Arden. I hope that she stays away from Tina. So Bette is still freaking out from having to lay off workers. I can understand her dislike for that type of situation. I love this story and hope that Bette and Tina will stay together.
A request, please please let Bette N Tina be together forever. Ok now that request done..I absolutely love your stories. Bette have some major challenges coming her way..profesionaly & privately. Thanks for sharing, you are the best.
Uh oh trouble coming and Bette gonna kick some ass. Hope she will talk to Tina and help her with the problem. Please post soon, thanks!
Drama, drama, drama on the horizon! Sounds like Bette needs to speak with someone about her issues, and Kate coming on to Tina is gonna cause some issues…PPS:)
Oh never liked that name. Never did and never will. Poor Bette, she has got to talk to somebody about her situation. Its gonna drive her crazy.
God your such a bad tease!! I mean that in a good way of course…looks like lots of drama in the horizon for B&T..hmm..as always this was a joy to read thank you
Bette should maybe consider therapy… That’s a lot of guilt to carry. But her red-tagging didn’t make that guy jump to his death. Nor is she to blame for PGC’s financial straits. If she can’t tell a therapist, she should at least tell Tina. Now, this Kate Arden… I smell trouble. Thanks for the post, Alchemy.
Wow!!!!What an awesome update. I have been reading from the start & really love all the twists & turns that U are coming up with in this fic. U have me on the edge of my seat & I can’t wait to see what happens next..adding Kate to the story…nice touch..Bette will get so jealous & with her shutting Tina out with the finicial problems of the Potters business…Tina may need someone to talk to…just saying-But I hope Bette opens up to her. I also loved the Paris Hilton joke-it was the best one that I have ever heard. Classic. Keep up the awesome work..
