Laid Up: Another Season 3 – Chapter Three
Alice sat up, awakened from a sound sleep to have to jump into the middle of a major rage from her lover. “What?”
“I saw what’s on your laptop. You’ve been taping me?”
Alice looked across at her laptop and tried to figure out what to say.
“This goes way over the top, Alice. Way over. I feel totally violated.”
Alice tried to calm her with a gentle touch on her forearm. “No, Dana. It’s not what happened. I bought Bette and Tina a Nannycam and I set it up in the living room to see if it worked before I took it over to them. I didn’t expect to get anything of any importance on there. I was just testing it.”
“Is it still up there? Is it?” Dana didn’t wait for an answer. She leapt from the bed and stormed into the living room going directly to the bookcase where she guessed the camera would be. She pulled the anteater from the shelf and looked behind it. “God, it’s still here and still on.” She tucked the stuffed animal under her arm and returned to the bedroom. “Can I tell you how outrageous this is? This is nuts, Al.”
“Dana, I forgot about it.”
“No. No, you so didn’t, Alice. Are you checking this every night to see if I’ve had another woman up here—Tonya or Lara or something? When I leave the house you go get the latest data to examine. This is un-fucking-believable.”
Alice was going to lose this fight that much was evident, so she did what she had to do. She turned the tables. “You know, Dana. I’m wondering why you never told me that Lara was up here. What I don’t know won’t hurt me?”
Dana’s eyes bulged out of her head. She was the one who was completely justified in her anger and now Alice was going to play the blame game. “C’mon, Al. Lara being up here wasn’t even a big deal. Your spying–that’s totally huge. It’s really demented.”
“I said I was sorry and I told you it was an accident.”
“It was an accident to tape it, maybe. It wasn’t an accident to keep it and it certainly isn’t an accident that you’re still taping me.”

Just got caught up with your stsory today and it is very interesting. After reading what Amanda and B&TForever said, do you really mean there were spoilers about Tina being in a coma for all of S3, if so, that would explain a lot. Oh God, I hope that is true, maybe S4 will be about getting us back to the real loving couple. What a thrill. thanks for the post.
Please have Tina wake up and the entire 3rd season would have been a dream for all of the characters. Great story but Tina in a coma is scaring the hell out of me. Too close to the real thing for me. Please, Please let her wake up to a loving Bette.
I ran my mouse over the ‘next post by this author’ link, desperately hoping for another chapter. I love the length and denseness of your chapters. I wonder if writing them is as pleasurable as it is to read them. Does Bette ever put Angelica in Tina’s arms? I’m sure they both need the bond of touch. Thanks!
By the by, does anyone else think that Tony Soprano’s coma was an ill-advised choice? I wonder if The Sopranos has jumped the shark with that one. It better pick up or HBO will be going the way of SHO in my household – kaput! Anyone?
OMG! Your story is great, I just started chap. one today been reading the rest straight through. Alice walking in Shane’s room & seeing the handprint on Carmen’s ass was hilarious. Keep up the great work.
Sharmen is sexy. I laughed out loud when Alice saw the handprint on Carmen’s ass. too funny.
I really like your writting, but I would prefer Tina to wake up or atleast give some reaction to Bette. This must be devestating for Bette. I love Tina and Bette, and i hated what happened in season 3, but they are still my favourite. Make it all better, please!
i love this… i have said tina is in a coma… but please don’t let her stay there too long… oh and i love alice… i could just see her walking into a room… ok stop fucking… and then just sit on the bed… too funny…please continue
I understand your attempt to make since of IC’s debakle of S3, but PLEASE let Tina wake up soon. She will have a long journey as it is.
Love the way you write Sharmen, that’s one hella sexy scene! I can really picture Shane and Carmen behaving that way. HOT! Please keep it up:)
Hey great story. That´s the first chapter I´ve read of your sory and I really like it. Especially the Sharmen parts!Please go on sooon!
Your sharmen are frisky bunnies…, oh boohoo, did I say I was sorry to see jenny catch a plane?? sorry, but pls don’t bring a max into this bunch…One happy couple on the road to having more happy couples..right??? WAKE UP TINA!!!Tks Portia, love this season your creating!!!!
Portia…This is really well written. Lots of detail and description, good dialogue and the comments and tone are spot on for each character. Keep going.
i guess you’re going with the rumors that season 3 was all dreamed up by tina who was in coma…i like it…eventhough i would like her to wake up soon
This is wonderfully written. Thank you!
