More Than a Feeling
"Yeah?" She turned.
"Do…" Tim laughed and looked down. "Do you know when Sam’s gonna be home?"
Tina laughed. "Around five I think."
"Okay, thanks."
"No problem. Good luck." Tina shouted, as Jagger jerked her down the block.

Bette pulled into her driveway, stopping the car just in front of the garage door. She cut the engine and got out, Alice quickly following. "So, you think you’re father’s home yet?"
"Probably." Bette sighed, knowing the barrage of questions heading her way. It was nice to know that her father cared about her enough to ask, but sometimes she just didn’t feel like talking. Being an adjunct professor down at the local community college gave Melvin Porter a lot of flexibility and extra time to assault his other daughter about trivial things, things he never got a chance to harass Kit with while she was growing up.
Bette unlocked and opened the door, finding her father sitting in his favorite chair in the living room, reading the newspaper. He looked up; smiling as he neatly folded the paper back into its original formation. "Hey baby girl, how was your first day as a senior?" Melvin asked excitedly before noticing Alice. "Oh, hello Miss Pieszecki." He mumbled semi-dejectedly.
"Hello Mr. Porter." Alice smiled, putting on the charm. "Love the tie." She complimented before going to the kitchen, moving around as if she lived there. Melvin looked down at his navy blue tie with a red diamond pattern before looking back up, confused.
Bette just shook her head. "School was fine Daddy." She answered before making her way to the kitchen as well. Melvin soon followed.
"Well, what classes are you taking? How are they?"
Bette sat down at the table next to Alice, who had, in a matter of seconds, managed to make herself a turkey and cheese sandwich, leaving all of the fixings on the counter, opened and exposed. "I’m taking four honors classes, gym, advanced Spanish and…that’s it."
"That’s all?" Melvin asked, disappointment laced in his words. "Isn’t there any other class you can take?"
Bette shrugged. "I figured my plate was pretty full already."
"Bette, sweetheart, how can you expect to be accepted to Yale if you don’t take that extra step, that extra class, that will show them that you are Ivy League material?"

I’m totally hooked!! Congratulations for your writing, it’s excellent, not just fan fictional for fun but professional. I do love reading your story.
Good chapter. Alice is crazy and funny and driving Bette crazy too. Tina and Dana is funny. Want to know some about Tina and about her feeling and what’s she thinking! Ok post soon please, thanks!
yeah, i can’t sleep either, tonight’s episode had me in tears…i wonder how B&T are going to progress, i think from friends first
keep em coming manda so addicted!!
Manda, you made my insomnia worthwhile. I’m more than happy to be the first person to remind you of how fantastic and necessary this story is. It’s looking like Bette is gonna have her work cut out for her. I trust your story progression and am happy just knowing that eventually there will be motion on the TiBette ocean. I’m begging you to please post soon. I just can’t believe how drained I am from S3. Ilene is going to be responsible for the boom in therapy in 2006. Cha-ching, if you’re a therapist!
I really needed a story like this right now. I’m thinking that next Sunday after I get back home from LA, I’m gonna start drinking to help me get through the show, then just go in late to work the next day. I can blame it on jet lag. Now onto your story: ow I had no idea that this Bette had already come out. At least one of them knows and it won’t be like 2 “straight” girls being all “DURRRRRRRRRR I got me some feelings I don’t get huh huh huh.” We’ll only have to deal with 1 of them acting like that. lol
This story is such a joy to read. Last nights episode was a heartbreaker and things will probably get worse. So Manda keep writing and posting your story for all of us heartbroken fans of B&T.
This is really cute! I can’t wait to read more :)
Hey I have just read the 3 chapters and I totally loves this story. I’m a sucker for B&T beginnings, but especially when they are very well written like this one. I love the way you write, this is such a great start….and I can’t wait to read more….I’m wondering about Tina, you don’t write much about her feelings or what is going on in her head. More chapters please…. :o))
Hoorah for Purdey Porter! Your story is yummy.
