More Than a Feeling
Around the corner and three classrooms down was History. Tina was one of the first few kids there, so she grabbed a seat in the back by a window, slouching in the seat. She jammed her headphones in her ear and turned her walkman on, looking out the window, watching the cars pass.
—————————
Bette and Alice walked inside, taking two seats in the second and third rows, just a seat from the front.
"God Porter, you’re such a nerd. Look at you, sitting in the front." Alice teased.
"Al, you’re sitting right next to me, wouldn’t that put you in the same boat?"
"I’m sitting here out of obligation. Where else am I supposed to go?"
Bette just shook her head. "Whatever."
The last few stragglers stumbled in before the second bell rang, and the teacher closed the door. He coughed loudly, subtly telling the loud chatter to cease. He was a short, stout man in his late fifties, early sixties. His grey-black hair was parted down the middle and slicked behind his ears. Beady eyes moved steadily behind thick-lensed glasses. His multi-colored sweater vest that hung atop an unsightly olive green button down had seen better days, and the already chalky brown slacks he wore were too long for his legs, dragging along the floor over scuffed up brown shoes. "Attention, this is Advanced Placement History. I am your teacher, Mr. Donavon."
Mr. Donavon turned and wrote his name on the chalkboard. Afterward, he sat down at his desk and flipped open a book. "I’m going to take attendance. If you’re here, please, don’t hesitate to say so." He paused to see if anyone would laugh. When nobody did, he continued. "All right…Byrdman"
Alice rolled her eyes and pretended to pass out on the desk, snoring slightly. "I’m bored."
Bette laughed. "Something tells me that feeling is going to stick with you all year."
"Fillmore"
"Here."
"How much longer do we have here?" Alice whispered.
Bette checked her watch. "Forty minutes."
"Jesus Christ!" Alice hissed, wrapping her arms around her head.
"Kennard"
"Here."
Bette turned at her voice and found a pale arm in the air. It’s her! What’s she doing here? Bette wondered as she watched Tina scribble in her notebook, leaning her head against the back wall. Tina looked up for a second, her eyes meeting Bette’s. She smiled and offered up a slight wave. Bette smiled back before turning around. She could feel her face get hot.

i wonder how long it will take tina to realize why bette is acting like that and for bette to admit her feelings…i have a feeling that it will happen after bette graduates LOL
manda l looks like u got a hit on ur hands!! continue soon
I already love this B&T beginning. I didn’t want this chapter to end! I love how Bette gets so flustered. It’s way too cute. But I wonder what is up with the Prudey Porter bit?
Boy, Tina sure has a lot of confidence! I think I would be drooling if Bette Porter paid that much attention to me! Thanks!
This was sweet. I do believe Miss Porter is smitten.
Goes forever? That’s a wonderful thought. I saw Randy Dean in Tina, hoho.
wow, this is good! looking forward to the next chapter!

My TiBette heart is beating again thanks to this story. Manda, your stories have the perfect balance of humor and emotion. This story allows me to put all of my risidual S3 anger aside for a few minutes. It’s too bad that’ll subside due to the weekly drawing and quartering session called S3 of The L Word today at 10 pm. Please post soon!
