More Than a Feeling
Bette grinned and wiggled her eyebrows as she took the keys and opened the door. She nearly jumped inside. The interior was nice, black leather. Bette adjusted all of the mirrors and put her hands on the steering wheel, trying to simulate a driving action.
Wait until Alice gets a look at this. She’ll die. Bette thought giddily. Melvin once again, however, broke her thoughts.
Bette thought giddily. Melvin once again, however, broke her thoughts.
"Now remember, nobody drives this car but you, you understand?"
"Absolutely. I wouldn’t ever let anyone else drive this."
"Not even that Pieszecki girl."
"Not even Alice." Although I’m sure she’ll beg me for days. Bette smiled, getting out of the car. She hugged her father again. "Thank you so much."
"You best be off Elizabeth, or you are going to be late." Melvin bent down, gathering up Bette’s books. "There you go." He said, handing them off to her. "Have a good day."
Bette got back into the car and Melvin closed the door. She started it up, sticking her head out the side window. "I will. Bye Daddy."
Melvin took a step back, waving his daughter off as she backed out of the driveway and drove off toward school. He watched until the car turned the corner, then he went inside.
———————–
Tina stepped on to the hot yellow school bus, gagging from the stench that never seemed to leave. You’d think they’d hose these things down in the summer or something. She thought as she gagged, dodging paper balls as she made her way to the end of the bus. The back was relatively empty, a good sign. She picked a seat that had a long strip of duct tape running down the middle of the seat, but it looked okay. She stretched her leg across the seat, leaning her back against the window. Closing her eyes, she stuck her headphones in her ears and turned her walkman on full blast to drown out the shouts of the other kids.
A few minutes later, someone was tapping her on the leg. Tina opened her eyes and took in the person who dared to disturb her. It was a girl, no older than fifteen. She had that usual nervous look about her, definitely a freshman. Her pin straight jet-black hair hid some of her unusually pale white face. She looked at Tina through large, round doe-like eyes. "I’m sorry, but can I sit here? There are no other empty seats."

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.
all the Bette and Tina happy times are wonderful you should continue writting this story. congrats
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!
