    No Good Deed Goes Unpunished Chapter 12

    Bette: I guess not. I’ve become kind of complacent with that anyway.

    Alex: Just think about it.

    Bette: I will. Thanks.

    Alex: And Bette, don’t stay out in the cold too long, you’ll get sick!

    Bette: Thanks mom.

    Alex sent kissing noises through the phone and then hung up.

    Bette lied back on the cold wooden deck and stretched her legs. This would be something that would require a lot of thought. She closed her eyes and tried to calm her racing heart.

    Tina: Bette? Oh my god you’re freezing!

    Bette opened her eyes to find Tina standing over her. Her whole body was shaking and her face was bright red from the cold.

    Tina: Bette what are you doing out here like this?

    Bette: Tina?

    Tina: Here take this.

    Tina gave Bette the scarf she left at the audition.

    Bette sat up slowly.

    Bette: What are you doing here?

    Tina looked away not able to make eye contact.

    Tina: I talked to Alex, he told me you were here and thought maybe I’d find you.

    Bette: well, you did.

    Tina: I wasn’t coming to bother you Bette. I just wanted to ask you if you would please truly consider taking the role.

    Bette: I just don’t think it’s a good idea Tina. It’s painful enough sitting next to you here.

    Tina: I understand.

    Tina turned her body to face to the water. There they were side by side again at the seaport.

    Tina: It’s even more beautiful here than I remember.

    Bette: It’s the winter air; it makes things look brighter, some how.

    Tina: I think New York is a much nicer place in the win…

    Tina’s voice was interrupted by a loud horn from a tugboat. Both women starred at it, refusing to look at the other, remembering the significance that the boat held.

    Bette: It feels so strange being here with you.

    Bette lied. She felt more comfortable in that moment with Tina then she ever had.

    Tina: I know. It’s just awkward.

    It was Tina’s turn to lie.

    1. Damn you woman! LOL….somehow I knew it couldn’t be that easy….must throw us more DRAMA first, huh? I’m loving it! Keep ”em coming…keeps my heart rate up!

    2. Great story, great writing … more than worthy of the award … congrats. Also, thanks for posting so frequently … fan fic withdrawls are quite uncomfortable!

    3. Bloody freakin’ hell…i can’t believe you did that. I can no longer be called a tease. I pale next to this story. What do we have to do to get more?

    4. poor bette. when u mistake your dreams for reality it’s just not a good sign. i know you’ll probably get around to it but since the beginning of this sequel i’ve been wondering why would tina leave bette in the first place? bette gave her everything and she threw it back. it was dramatic. and painful.

      will they get together by doing the play like a moulin rouge thing? it’d be funny if they all started singing. woah! where did that come from?

      anyway i still feel worse for bette. why can’t she be happy? WHY??? anywho, plz post again today cause i love this story! better than all but a few of books i’ve read.

      how long do u intend for this story to go for? hopefully a really long time, but i was taught that not all things can last forever. i’m a huge flair fan!

    5. I was so happy to see you’d posted again when I came back in the office. Why is it every time I start reading one of your stories I’m on the edge of my seat. Anticipation, excitement, fear, my god girl. Bette has to take the part, our girls have got to find there way back to each other. I know they will, but I also know the little devil in you will keep us on the edge for as long as you can . Its okay it keeps us wanting more. Just keep it coming.

    6. i was yelling at my monitor, YOU ARE SO PLAYING US!!! you are killing us a little at a time. you do know that dont you. they cant will without each other and you know it. they cant be happy without the other. this is truly painful to read. please post again, im such a masoichist (sp). i think you get my drift.

    7. I will meet you in some place
      Where the light lends itself to soft repose
      I will let you undress me
      But I warn you, I have thorns like any rose
      And you could hurt me with oyur bare hands
      You could hurt me using the sharp end of what you say
      But I am lost to you now
      There’s no amount of reason to save me

      So break me
      Take me
      Just let me fill your arms again
      Break me
      I’ll le you make me
      Just let me feel your love again

      Jewel – Break Me

    15. You are the Queen of the “fake out.” By the way I will NEVER get tired of the Drama! That is what I love about your story. It isn’t a clean, everything is rosy, B&T story! It is actually realistic to me, but of course I am a drama queen.LOL

    18. BLOODY HELL!! I got so excited and then its a dream :( I’ve had that happen to me so I guess it can be allowed in the story- even if I don’t like it lol I just hope that can be real for them soon!! Can’t wait for more :)

    19. I have at least an acres worth of long-stem roses thrown on my computer in your honor, and I will make it a ritual every night after I have read your stories! Mwah-mwah…oh how I love thee flair maiden. I literally can’t wait for the next post, hurry the roses won’t stay fresh for long!

    20. Okay, you completely hooked me with “Can’t Help” and then cruelly broke my heart at the end. And now I find myself getting hooked all over again but should I trust you with my heart one more time? Please be gently!!!!!!!!!

    21. Damn you Flair! you should be put away for trying to send me into cardiac arrest! I knew that sh!t was too good to be happening. Keep ’em coming, you big tease….hehe

    22. TEASEEEEEE!

      lol for some reason then i had this extra scene in my head revolving around what Alex would have thought about you making that a dream sequence.

      I swear I am way too hooked on this story, i dont even make sense anymore :P

      great work!

    23. It’s taken me about 15 minutes to compose myself so I could comment…I’ve been flushed and laughing too hard…first at my own foolhardiness for falling prey to your trap…second at all the other comments. You know what you are don’t you?…Cunning…You are cunning personified! This story is just all too grand! Duped again, Flair…Duped again. Encore!!

    24. Here’s a very special grateful thanks for you, writer of my heart, for having give us such a delicious parenthesis through this dream – and dreamy – sequence… I know you just made us this gift because we truly needed a bit of romance and a ray of sunshine in our sad hearts for a while. So even knowing it was a dream, for me I enjoyed it like a piece of ideal reality, a touch of magic before to bravely go back to our Flair’s Giant Drama-rollercoaster. That’s was priceless, really, and as I want to comment it as if it was a real scene, well, I’ll do this way…

      “As long as you keep enjoying I’ll keep posting”, you said ? Great : now I have a very precise view of you, becoming a charming old lady, dictating to your secretary the 82th chapter of the 32th sequel of this story ! (lol) Because you cannot hope we’ll stop to enjoy it one day ! No way !

      South Street Sea Port appearing in front of my eyes once more !!! Oh, god, thanks… You already know what a damn “coup de foudre” (*wink*) I felt for this place. And it’s winter time – and there’s stars in the dark sky ! Awww… what are you doing to me…
      “It’s the winter air; it makes things look brighter”: you’re – well, Bette’s – so right. Brighter than reality, like memories are. Winter is the poetic timeless season…
      Next time I’ll be lucky enough to pay an other visit to your amazing city, be sure I’ll go directly there – by night, of course… Oh, what a magical place ! Now I close my eyes and I see it again – thanks to you.

      And thank you SO MUCH for bringing our two lovers to this place again, wizard… With the come back of your lovely tugboat’s metaphore in the middle of all this sweetness – even bittersweetness – I’m over the moon. God, you’re amazing !

      Well, watching our Bette and Tina both lying and hid true emotions all along this really beautiful scene (such a quietness, even with so much melancholy around and inside), I just hear the famous “The world is a stage, the stage is a world of entertainment” here.

      (Wait, here’s a private message : Alex, I adore you for the Norma Desmond’s staircase descent’s so funny evocation ! Take this affectuous hug, “Sir” (… I know you love to be called that way, hmmm ?))

      And for once, just because your magical chapter made me hum it all the time, I’ll be the one who put some lyrics – for once :

      “The night is bitter,
      The stars have lost their glitter,
      The winds grow colder,
      And suddenly you’re older
      And all because of
      The man that got away”

      Thousand thanks for everything. Reading this Seaport’s scene in front of a beautiful night – it’s 5:30 a.m. here ! – will bring me sweet dreams, I’m sure of that.
      You. are. wonderful.

    25. … by the way, I forgot to ask : there’s something pretty mysterious in this dream. But yes : how Bette was able to know Tina’s girlfriend’s name ?
      I wonder !

    26. Ha! When Tina showed up out of nowhere in the seaport I immediatly thought “DREAM!”. But then for a moment there I thought “no! It’s not a dream, I love you so much flairforthedramatic!!”

      And then, the kiss and I was like.. dream?
      And BAM! You rule!

      I hate the way they keep hurting each other like that… the way they can’t even be in the same room…

      Bette’s outburst is – sorry for the word I’m going to use here, but I’ll explain it and it won’t seem all that bad, I promise – ridiculous but in a way that I know that if I were her I would’ve done the same thing and I would’ve felt absolutely ridiculous and pathetic afterwards and I’d just want to die.
      It’s like we know it’s pathetic but we do it anyway and then we feel like crap.

      Besides, with Bette being an actress and all it seems more… natural, I guess. But not a bit less painful…

    27. Darn, what can I say to describe what I feel. I’m happy that these two got together even when it was just in a dream. I knew it right away that it could not be happening, maybe with some other writers, but not with you. That would have been way too simple with no drama at all. =)

      I really wish that Bette will accept the part. That would give you an interesting storyline, especially with Bette making out with “Christina” and Tina watching and directing the show.

    28. Flair, you almost had me there! I really thought, that Tina showed up and they started approaching each other…BUT of course, it wouldn´t be you if there isn´t a huge twist! You ARE messing with my head! THANK YOU!!! Keep it up, girl! maximum stars for you again….
