Chapter 15
It is indeed beautiful… she thought
Sitting all by herself on the dock dangling her feet in the water while watching the gorgeous sunset and its amazing colors. Bursts of gold on lavender melting into saffron. It’s the time of day when the sky looked like it had been spray-painted by a graffiti artist. The feel of the cool breeze of the wind on her creamy white skin soothed her and all she could hear was silence and it was absolutely perfect.
She hugged herself and closed her eyes then took a deep breath.
And another one.
A moment like this deserved preservation and the only way to do it was to keep it in the depth of her memory bank.
“Feeling cold?”
A smile graced her face when she heard that voice. Even with her eyes closed she knew who the person was. Slowly she opened her eyes and was met by those deep brown orbs.
“Hi…”
“Hello Bette…” said the blonde shyly and returning the smile that the stunning brunette was giving to her now
“Why are you here alone?”
Tina held the gaze of the woman sitting just a few inches beside her and conveyed all the love she had for her thru her eyes.
“I’m not alone… not anymore… I have you…”
The caramel skinned beauty giggled
The blonde gave Bette a loving smile
“You’re feeling cold, aren’t you?” the brunette asked again
Tina didn’t reply and instead just playfully shook her head
Bette raised a brow and pointed a finger on Tina’s outfit, a faded denim shorts and a blue Led Zeppelin tank top “I know you are feeling cold”
When the brunette didn’t hear an answer, she scooted over and erased the little space between them that her right arm and leg were now brushing against Tina’s
“There, much better?”
“Yes thank you” the blonde responded, gratefully
“You’re welcome”
They stared at one another for a few minutes letting each other basked in each other’s beauty then Bette turned her gaze away from the blonde. Both women could smell the damp earth combined with old fallen leaves and the distinct and unique fragrant of the lake. This earthy scent definitely had an instinctive calming effect to a human. So relaxing that it could even refreshed one’s soul.

Hi ladies I’m here again! I know I haven’t been posting regularly so I really appreciate all the support and most of your patience. My laptop broke down again and I just decided to buy a new one. I even told a friend that it might take me another week to post again but good thing I was able to whip a new chapter today. This is going to be a short one though but again it’s better to have something than nothing right? (-;
Time for shout outs:
wkm – I’m sure you are not the only one, but I’m happy to say that no cliffy this time hope you enjoy, thanks!
laileng36—Oh hello! Well thank you for following and for liking this humble fic. Sorry if it took me quite some time to post but I hope this will make up for the absence. Thanks in advance!
2005fanforever—My country is prone to typhoons so it was actually normal to us (-: But thanks anyway and for waiting so patiently, please enjoy!
mamadoc91—I agree Tina is not really in a good place right now, hopefully Bette will be there for her. In the last chapter Tina was drunk that’s why she had the guts to do what she did (taking her clothes off in front of Bette) I don’t think she can do that when she’s sober but if you can still remember she didn’t say anything about her parents and dead twin sister. I think it wasn’t the right time for Tina to share those thing to Bette yet, not in that condition. Okay I’m saying too much already lol, they’ll have that “talk” eventually. Thanks for reading and leaving a comment, really appreciate it!
brinny—Wow that’s flattering and I love knowing that my writing can affect people’s feelings. Yes Tina is lonely right now but she won’t be like this for long, you’ll see, just have faith (-:
tibettenation1—Oh-Em-Gee your comment really cracked me up and promise I will never ever forget you hahaha! The chapter is not long as you would have wanted it to be but it’s better to post something than nothing at all, right? Yes I appreciate all the love that I can get from the readers, they inspired me big time.
Yes Tina is lost and lonely right now but this is not always the case. She’ll eventually find happiness that she has been looking for. Angie will come back soon (-; thanks dear for reading and leaving a comment, hope you’ll like this
betteporterjb— Aaww thanks, yes I’m past all the negative issues, thank God! Hope you’ll enjoy this new chappie(-;
JBLH – Aww your comment melts my heart, thank you! So glad to know that you have a Filipino blood (-; As always the typhoons here in the Philippines left trails of devastation but you know how resilient Filipinos are despite severe weather conditions and no I wasn’t in any danger when we had Typhoon Glenda just no electricity for 3 days but all is fine now. And well about Tina sobering fast? I think you’ll be happy in this chapter, well hopefully (-;
satellite—I’m not really good in getting compliments but thank you… I hope this short chapter won’t make you feel like crying, hope you enjoy (-:
P.S. You live in a gorgeous country and I hope to go there one day
Jalex— Oh thanks and as always I appreciate you for reading this story and sorry that this chapter is a little short but I sure hope that you’ll like this (-;
toby4ever—Well thank you! I do believe that slow burn and cliffhanger make a good combination lol! But I’m glad to say that no cliffy this time(-; I think they began having parallel feelings for each other since Bette’s first day at the firm but now those feelings are going deep. No major damage since the typhoon, thank goodness! Hope you’ll like this one too, thanks in advance!
Jackiee1—Wow thanks for the kind words… please enjoy!
bettefortina—I know right? Lol! A lot of people can be brutally honest when under the influence of alcohol but I’m not going to say whether Tina is sober or not when she tell “things” to Bette, you have to see for yourself sweetie (-; Tina can very well handle her professional problems and she sure wont hide from her parents especially Randall. Thanks so much for your continuous support, hope you enjoy!
skycaptain—Yeah me too but I’m fine nothing to worry about, actually the typhoon was my inspiration when doing the last chapter and I guess it worked(-; I agree when that “moment” happens between Bette and Tina it’s definitely more than just sex. But hey did you say 100 chapter? OMG I’ll be an old lady then and I’m still not finished with this story hahaha! Hope you like this!
SassyGran—Oh hi nice to see you dropping a comment! Sorry if the last chapter was a bit cliffy, don’t worry this one is not and they will spend a few more hours at the lake house. Would love to know your thoughts, thanks!
Bibi28— Oh sorry if you feel that way, believe me I didn’t mean to(-; Tina is indeed a one hell of a woman and I guess the only way she could let Bette know about her desire for her was doing what she did. Yes Bette sees Tina for all she is but to answer your question if this is the start of something beautiful between then, probably after reading this chapter you’ll have an answer, please enjoy(-:
Ut—thanks for always reading my friend. They will have a long talk hope you’ll like this, thanks!
els73—Oh thanks for the welcome back! You are most welcome, hope you’ll like this (-;
cellphone48—Oh thank you so much cel! They will have a “talk” in this chapter but I don’t think it’s the right time for more revelations. I don’t think it’s what they need right now, you’ll see what I mean when you read this, hope you’ll like (-;
topcat—So sorry for the cliffy but I think you’ll like this chapter and oh no cliffhanger this time(-;
chasingdreams—It is sexy right? (-; How about I was feeling pissed and bored when I was making that chapter while there was heavy rain and no electricity, yup that was happened but all is fine now in my side of the world, hope yours too(-;
fuzzy—Yes did survive the turmoil thank God! They were confused about each other but soon they’ll find clarity and hope you are still there when that happens, thanks for reading and for finally breaking your silence, I super appreciate you!

lipitora—Oh did I scare you? Didn’t mean to but sorry if I did… But loved to know that I can make someone blushed (-; they are beginning to have deeper feelings for each other. Btw sorry for the leaving the last chapter with a cliffy you know I just want to keep you all in your toes and I hope this will make up for it and oh no cliffy this time. Thanks sweetie!
Dee22—Hi there and thanks for leaving a comment, hope you’ll enjoy this too(-;
scribe—Oh yea it was horrible but it’s good to know that you only lost electricity for a few hours. Good thing it was raining that time at least it wasn’t that hot. About B and T, I know what you mean and glad to tell you that they will have plenty of talk in this chapter so hope you’ll like this.
I feel the same with your story, keep up the great work!
dandygreen—You’re absolutely right but the reward whenever I see comments on my story/stories are way better than getting money (wow is this really me talking? Lol) Hope you’ll like this
4sands—Aww thanks for the lovely words! Glad to know that my writing can turn your tablet purple lol!!! I love seeing an alpha Tina but I like it better when she turns all softie when it comes to Bette and vice versa. Thanks so much for reading and taking a time to leave your comment, appreciate it!
mscully—Aww thank you too for the wonderful comment! I love to make my readers think of the next thing that will happen to our fave couple make tem anticipate for the next chapter. Don’t worry about Bette she’s not the type who takes advantage of a vulnerable person, esp not Tina. Yup im okay, laptop is not and have to buy a new one to bring you all a new chapter so hope you’ll like this (-;
Aiyahnah—Sorry if it took three weeks to post again. Life has gotten in the way but I’m here again and hope this chapter will make up for the long absence. Tina has gone a lot, with her deceased twin sister and her parents and maybe going to a therapist might be a big help, that’s a good point, well let’s see. Tina will surely pull through with all the negative issues that she’s having right now of course with some inspiration from a gorgeous brunette and adorable little girl.
Jajiay_LJ—Thanks so much for reading and for leaving a comment, hope you’ll enjoy!

Thanks for the update and taking us away from the cliff edge! Ready for the next post now then, perhaps a little longer?
Omg I seen this new post and just started cheesing real big barely able to contain myself, this is what your writing does to me, but you killing me here 8 pages?*sigh* ok you right better this than nothing but if I end up like Tina drinking a whole bottle of alcohol just know it’s because these chapters aren’t longer and coming quicker lol lol
Ok on to the chapter, omg I so thought Tina was about to find out that Angie was Angelica, Bettes daughter that was a close one but geesh when she finds out I can only imagine it just making her wanna be with Bette more because it seems that she is really taken with Angie and we all know she’s in love with Bette. Tina dreams are just plain cruel lol they gonna have that poor woman delusional. Ready to read how their morning at the office is about to go, freak! put these two together I can’t take it anymore…and if Bette cook stir fry chicken for their meal I’m pulling my hair out lol she really needs to learn more dishes. Well I gotta leave it with my same ole plea…Please see update soon lol!

Whoah! After reading the first 2 pages I was like “Did I missed the previous Chapter?” coz It started so good only to find out that T was only dreaming. Hahaha!
It was sweet but even if it is short I would say that just like the other readers I am so glad to read an update from you.
Love
Scribe
I agree with scribe! – thought I had missed something and went back a chapter to make sure. Lovely dream! Hopefully Tina can start to trust Bette with her feelings and let down her walls to her. Bette seems drawn to her. You are right that they have a long process ahead of them. Any chance of finishing your other story? I love both storylines! Thank your for sharing!
I loved it, thanks!
At first I thought it was real and nothing was just a damn dream.
You have impressed me with your writing I have read its chapters the start to finish.
I can not wait for the next chapter.
I’m glad you bought a new computer.
It would be our pleasure to support you in anything, please say if you need it.
I apologize for my English is not so good, soon I’ll go to Ireland to study English and I hope to return to 100%. =)
Have a great week!
Good to see u post again and don’t worried my friend we wait for u whenever u have time and a new laptop to post . That was great and hope Tina is the one that send flower and not tim. Thanks for the post.
How many pages doesn’t matter, i am glad with even one page:)
just a dream, oh boy, i hope it will be a real one asap.
I can’t believe myself but i am gonna say it:
I still like the slow pace, let them become friends first, finding trust in each other, before they start a relationship.
Great update! And maybe a few pages more? !
Wow thankyou for your update, its a bit short, but we loved it. Hopefully Tina will stop dreaming……. and really kisss Bette. Thx for your post. Pps
So glad you updated. I love this story. Looking forward to their relationship going faster and further. Thanks
Hi, I knew she was dreaming! I just had that feeling! Its raining cats and dogs here so that might be why I knew she was dreaming. Plus I knew when the last chapter ended it was raining cats and dogs. LOL! I’m just glad you posted. No matter how short or long its just great to see you post! I love that they are taking their time to get to know each other. Cause in the end it will be well worth the wait! I will be so glad when Boo comes back. I miss her!:( Well, be Blessed and waiting on the next post. PPS
Internally screaming with tears of joy that we were blessed with a new chapter! And so incredibly happy that these two are finally on their way to each other :) So sorry about your recent computer troubles… but feel free to post as many of these ‘short’ chapters as often as you’d like. No more roadblocks for these two either! Can’t wait for your next post!
It was wonderful seeing Bette and Tina on an equal footing and becoming friends. I really hope the flowers are from Tina. “T” also begins with Tim. Jealous Tina will go on a rampage if that’s the case! Love your story Phacey!
Oh you trick me!!! I never thought that it was just a dream hahaha! But that’s fine you know i lav yah! I so loved this chapter because Bette and Tina are starting to become friends and i’m sure that the flowers is from Tina. Oh i cant wait for her to meet Bette’s precious Angel. Waiting for your next post!
Hi Phacey thanks for the chapter. Hope to read your next post soon!
It’s crazy how I automatically smile when I saw your post. Yeah it was quite short but what matter is the quality, not the quantity. I’m sure your friend was surprised to see your update when she least expect it.
We really appreciate your effort for posting a new chapter although some things get in the way sometimes. And for the effort you put in writing shout outs, only few writers do that.
It was a nice scene by the way (light reading) at least Bette and Tina were able to laugh together and had a fun moment and of course the “getting to know each other” part was nice.
I hope you’ll be inspired enough to write more chapters (maybe longer) now that you have a brand new lappy. But don’t stress yourself too much. An update next weekend will be good enough.
A million thanks!
Hi phasey, thanks again for your effort!!!
Whose are the flowers? !!! The last scene shot me anxiety! Look that I’ve been worried about that appointment with Tim … What you think you leave a message to clarifying who is ‘T’ and so I wait calmly the next chapter? ; )
Seriously, I think you’re a specialist in maintaining tension, intrigue and excitement.
I loved the chapter.
I wish that your new laptop will allow you to republish more often.
Phacey always leaving us craving more!! Love the tension!! Please give us more :)
Hey phacey so glad to see you again! Im in love with this chapter. We all know that Tina is already in love with Bette while Bette is beginning to fall for Tina and i like how light this chapter is compared to the last post. They are not only talking but they are laughing together too! But i know ur good in keeping the mysteries, T can mean two things. T for Tina or T for Tim. As far as i can remember you ended this chapter being Friday, it means that later in the evening Bette will have a date with Tim to watch a play. Could it be that the flowers came from Tim, as an advance thank you? I hope not and what would Tina think then?! Goodness phacey you are making me crazy here lol! Please give us a new update soon
I’m a little late with my comment again, sorry! ;)
what a dream! ;) I loved it so much. you just found a way to tease us a bit :P
You have a way with words, I love the way you write.
it was a short chapter, but I liked it. I’m looking forward to the next chapter. and Angie re-emergence.
It was a sweet scene between them, thank you.
I hope the T = Tina!
Glad you were able to get another laptop. I am loving the slow burn but 8 pages was a tease. I was hoping for some fireworks between them. I’m glad Tina didn’t continue to push Bette away. I hope they will grow from this, and when Tina finds out Angelica is the little girl from the park it’s going to be awesome. Thank you so much for posting.
I agree with mamadoc91 what a lovely and romantic dream! Not too much drama in this chapter but i like it that Bette is beginning to fall for Tina. I really cant wait for Tina to know that Angelica is Bette’s daughter. But i disagree when you said that no cliffy in this chapter. Bette getting flowers from a mysterious person named T is as good as a cliffhanger.
Anyway kudos for giving us an awesome chapter as always it was well worth the wait.
Counting down the days! PPS
Ok….. I’m gonna be cautiously optimistic here and assume the flowers are from Tina and that there will be no additional drama when Tina returns to work . Too much to ask for? Thanks for another great update. Bette and Tina seem to be moving closer to having a real relationship built on honest feelings and affection and not a business transaction. post soon, pretty please
And it was my pleasure to read that chapter. But as we all know the saying goes one step forward and two steps back. We know that even more drama is on the way.
Hi Phacey! Waiting your update! Dying to know wht Tina’ s reaction would be once she found out who Bette’s daughter is! Don’t forget us!
