No Good Deed Goes Unpunished Chapter 32
Bette had originally planned on taking the N train downtown to the rehearsal studio but after her meeting with Jackie she decided to walk. She needed the air and the time to think. Her head spun as she tried to figure out if she had made the right decision.
Tina: Melanie, I need you to say that last line with as much emotion as you humanly can.
Melanie took a seat on the edge of the stage, frustrated. She was listening to everything Tina had told her and still she couldnt quite grasp it. She brushed a blonde strand of hair out of her face and drew a deep breath.
Melanie: Im sorry. Im trying. I just cant FEEL it.
Tina: OK, have you ever been in love?
Melanie was quick to answer.
Melanie: Of course.
Tina: Have you ever had your heart broken?
Melanie nodded.
Tina: Go to that time in your life. Think about it. Feel that moment. Then, give me that line.
Melanie closed her eyes as tight as she could.
Melanie: I dont mind that you put your career first. Really I dont. But could you at least put me second?
Tina dropped her head in her hands. This wasnt working.
Melanie looked hopeful.
Melanie: Did I get it?
Tina: Um, youre getting closer.
That couldnt be farther from the truth.
Alex, Alice and Daphne sat still in the back of the room watching Melanie fall apart.
Daphne: Where did she find this girl?
Alex: Shes improving.
Alice: Yeah, shes getting much better.
Daphne: One lies and the other swears to it. Its amazing.
Alex: No one asked you Daphne.
Daphne: The truth is that she isnt bad, she just isnt good. Do you know what I mean?
Alice rolled her eyes in Daphnes direction. She never liked Daphne. Something about her was always suspicious.
Alice: Dont you have lines to learn or something like that?
Daphne: While you four were away I did my job and learned my lines.
Tina spun in her chair to see what the commotion was about. Alice noticed and quickly shut her mouth.

Can we run over Daphne with a cab? Still loving Alice and Alex as a dynamic duo of sorts. Bette needs to just stop lying before things get worse, and Tina better watch her back.
I see where your going with this, but one request…can we pls have just a little bit more B/T bonding before you have us hanging at the edge of our seats!!! PLS
Whoa! Let’s get ready to rumble! I’ll be sitting in the front row with my beer and popcorn for Porter vs. Kennard 2006. Please, please, please post soon Flair! Oh, and I was dying of laughter at Alice saying that she’d “hit that.” Mainly because I say that all the time…who says romance is dead?
So Bette has turned down the opportunity? I don’t think she’ll lose the chance since Tina will find out and insist accepting the offer will do good to her and their relationship. But Bette’s action is correct and will help Tina to realise she’s in love with Bette the person, not only the face. So she could deal with Daphne easily. =)
wellie wellie…haha alice n alex just classic everytime!! and ur sooo bad in such a good way i already have so many scenarios running thru my mind at what u could possible throw at us!! always lookin for u flair!!
I forgot how much I loved Alice and Alex. They are so funny and break not only the ice but everything else around them. Bette is backing herself into a corner. She needs to talk to Tina or she will be pushing Tina into the direction of Daphne and that would be a painful to watch.
WHAT THE FCUK IS DAPHNE UP TOO????!!! Let Alice and Alex loose on her, if she tries anything!!!!!!!
aphne is really after Tina. Bete should stop her falsehoods to Tina. Tina knows that Daphne can take Bettes place,In the show not in her heart. Alex and Alice are so darn funny. thanks
Ah what fun, Daphne is sniffing around, Bette’s avoiding the truth, Al & Alex providing the comic relief. Maybe the welcome sign at JFK should remind people to walk twice as fast as they usually now that they’ve entered NYC.
Ah, here we go, walking on a tightrope, mmm ? What can be worst than an increasing accumulation of lies and hidden thoughts, above all when a relationship just found a new – and, so, fragile – beginning ? Add Ashley and Daphne to complete the recipe and indigestion isn’t far… No wonder if you’re our Queen of Drama, without any pity and maliciously smiling in front of your poor addicted – and pretty masochistics ! – readers ! BUT I’ll follow Honda90 here, begging for a bit of love before the next huge drama wave – pleeeaaase ! ^_^ *** Thank you so much for letting me savour your talent again, dear author. I really love this amazing story of yours, really I do.
Damn drama coming and Daphne is big trouble!
Oh what tangled webs we weave, when first we practice to deceive…I think Sir Francis Scott said them first, but they are certainly words that Bette should heed!
lies won’t help…i hate daphne…she’s trying to be bette and steal tina…i’m afraid that when bette tells tina about other play and put daphne to play her, daphne will get really close and ruin everything for B&T…i don’t mind drama, and i know you not fond of B&T as a couple, but i hope you’ll make us happy
Oh please have them work this out. They need some time together..OK..I’m ready…bring the drama. Deep breath…..
I finally got a chance to comment! I love the dunamics that are developing you can do so much with them so please please please (even though I know I don’t have to ask as everyone else has pointed out that you are the queen of drama) don’t take the easy route out! Take the road less travelled by, its why I started reading this story and why I stuck with it for so long. I love you, keep writing, you’re amazing. I hope our kids get your talent ;)
Romance, drama, comedy, this story has it all, and every chapter a cliffhanger! Why, everything’s as if we never said goodbye…
