"Ah-huh."
"And you know, I tried so hard not to follow in her footsteps. I try my best to get good grades and obey my father so at least he has one daughter to be proud of…now I think I might have tried just a little too hard."
"What do you mean?"
Sitting up straighter, Bette said, "Well, now I think my father expects the world from me. It’s like, whatever I do, it’s never enough. Nothing I do makes him happy."
"I’m sure you’re father is very proud of you." Tina said soothingly.
"Yeah? Well, on the first day of school, when I came home and told him about my classes, my father insisted I take another. I mean, I’m already juggling four honors classes and an advanced language course, plus the community service I still have to do, and applying for college. I thought I had enough to deal with. But no, there’s always that, ‘something extra’ that I need to put me over the top." Bette said, the bitter in her voice evident.
"Well, I don’t know your father, but I think he was just saying that because he really wants you to get into Yale and it’s true. My guidance counselor keeps telling me that I have to get good grades and do all this community service and everything else that will give me that ‘something special’ when colleges look at my application. Like I’ll ever get into any other school besides Corona Bay Community College."
"Don’t say that. I’m sure a lot of schools would be happy to have you."
"Yeah sure, they’d be happy to have me, and I’d be happy to go if they’d foot the bill. Which they probably won’t."
"Why do you put yourself down like that?" Bette asked, a sort of frustrated curiosity taking over her.
"I don’t think it’s putting me down so much as it is just accepting reality for what it is."
"But that isn’t what reality is Tee. You have the ability to do whatever you want, to go wherever you want if you really set your mind to it."
Closing her eyes, Tina joked, "So if I really think about going to Aruba, it’ll happen? Hold on, I’m gonna try it." Tina squeezed her eyes tightly, "Oh wait, I think I got it! Oh…no, damn." Tina opened her eyes.

Ice bitch huh. I bet asshole Eric tried to score with Bette and she shot him down. Maybe while Bette is flipping through the channels a movie wit a couple of hot women will be on and Bette can gauge Tina’s reaction. ;)
Holy hell I needed this chapter to pull me out of the trenches from Sunday’s episode. Why am I even watching when I can just live happily in Fan Fiction Denialville? Manda, your story is excellent and again, I thank you for writing it at a time when it’s situation critical. As for Bette, woman up and go get your girl. Parting is such sweet sorrow, Monty! PLEASE post soon if life allows Manda.

this is great! i look forward to your posts everyday. hope you can post soon!
I am loving this story. It is so cute reading how Tina is wanting to know everything about Bette. Bette is being too nice by not telling Tina what happened with Eric. Eric is just a jerk and needs an adjustment with his behaviour and quick.
Sooo great this story….
Tina’s a smart girl. I’m glad she snuck a listen. Not only is she cautious of Eric…now she is suspicious. It will never work. So what’s the history between Bette and Eric?
