More Than a Feeling
Or it could’ve been the fact that she was a senior this year and the prospect of filling out college applications, trying to keep her perfect grade point average, taking four honors classes, and completing her community service credits that made her heart beat faster and her stomach turn.
Checking herself in the mirror one more time, Bette sighed loudly before heading downstairs, the smell of blueberry pancakes filling her nostrils.
————————————
Rapidly rubbing a towel against her damp scalp, Tina searched her closet for something clean to wear. She couldn’t remember the last time she did laundry, but she was 85% certain that there was a clean pair of pants and shirt laying somewhere in her room.
It took a good ten minutes, but a tight, plain, black t-shirt, comfortable form-fitting jeans and worn black Converse sneakers seemed the best way to go. Tina ran a brush through her hair a few times, letting the strands fall where they may.
She glanced in her mirror before trudging downstairs to the kitchen, the smell of burning toast already filling her nostrils.
"Morning." Tina yawned as she shuffled into the kitchen, plopping down on a chair.
"Wow, ten minutes early. Does that mean you’ll eat a normal breakfast?" Amy turned from her sizzling eggs to ask Tina.
Tina shrugged. "Depends on what you’re burning." She deadpanned, receiving a playful glare from her mother.
Seconds later, Samantha Kennard, Tina’s older sister, was running into the kitchen, grabbing toast. "Hey Tina, you want me to drive you today?"
Sammy Kennard was a sophomore at the local community college, two years older than Tina, but the best older sister a girl could ask for. They looked nothing alike. Sam looked like their father, with straight dark brown hair, bright green eyes and smooth golden brown skin. Tina on the other hand, looked like her mother, with wavy blonde hair, deep brown eyes, and milky white skin that burned and freckled in the mid-day sun.
Tina shook her head. "No, it’s okay. It’s better to grab my seat on the bus the first day, or I’ll have to sit with the smelly kid for the rest of the year."
"Tina." Amy scolded.
Sammy just laughed. "A serious problem, I’m sure."

Thanks, my day is just starting…and you already made it. Looking forward to the next chapter soon.
Manda, I don’t think that I can adequately express my gratitude for this TiBette beginning. This is sooooooooo welcome. I personally feel like Ilene has raked me over the coals and then tarred and feathered me with S3. Please post often so that I may escape the torture. I’ll be less dramatic in my comments on the next chapter.

I was jonesing for another B&T beginning and here it was. This is great – please post again soon!

Great! Oh! Please, continue, continue, continue! I love B&T. I just cannot get enough of new beginnings.

Might I say I’m “captured”, I love the title and the story. Bette and Tina will always rock and I look happily forward to your next post :-)
GREAT START…JUST Hope u continue and don’t abandon the story in the middle, like some of the other stories.
I’m really excited to see how this turns out. Looking at high school through Tina’s eyes cracked me up, especially the view from outside the building. It reminded me of the beginning scenes of “Mr. Holland’s Opus” in 1994 just before he was told he’d be cut loose from his job. This Bette seems so innocent and this Tina seems so “whatever.” Please post again soon!
This is good and like it. Please post soon, thanks!
