One and Only – chapter 22
“No – you are right. How does he deal with you not wanting to beat him ?”
“He tries all kinds of things. There is a 10km run soon. I have signed up that and if I do well he will buy me a mini MP3 – one that I can clip onto my shorts when I run”
“Do you have to beat a certain time or something ?”
“I have to come in the top half of all the times”
“Will you ?”
“Yes”
“Ah “ Tina smiled “I think there is the smallest hint of a competition in you ?”
“Only to beat myself. “
“Have you ever questioned it ?”
Bette sighed “ I think being laid back means that you don’t get wound up by things like – oh – you only finished 10th in that race. So what if I don’t finish 9th – why should I let anyone else impose on me whether something I have done is successful or not ?”
“But isn’t there a difference between how you are about games and sport and all that – and how you are with grades – what would you do if I started too get better grades than you ? – would you hate me ?”
“Of course not – I would work harder but you getting good grades and getting into the college that you want doesn’t mean that I cannot get into Yale”
Tina considered Bette’s argument for a while and nodded “You could be right”
Tina was enjoying just sitting talking to Bette – it was progress that she could chat to the brunette and they could be friends. Tina was going to have to figure out whether to do anything about her feelings towards Bette. If she did – it would have to be several weeks or months down the line.
“Do you ever read anything about Buddha ?” Bette asked suddenly.
Tina looked at Bette “Can’t say that I have”
Bette looked like she was debating whether to say any of this to Tina. Tina could see her nerves
“Tell me about Buddha – tell me about why you are interested in him ?”
“I know that I am a bit odd “
“Nothing wrong with not following the herd “ Tina said honestly

loved this… now i hope Rocky posts a chapter when you’re not looking… lol…
Such a good story. It’s a shame work and life interferes w/writing. ;-)
Hey ROCHY how about you appear and give us another update of this incredible story.:)
Yeah another chapter :D Thank you! Love it ♥ Come on Rocky. It’s your chance. Post the next one ;)
Thank you for posting another great chapter. I love this story and the details behind their meeting and getting to know each other. I like that Shane is a Yoda-type character in this one as well. I think the fact that Tina is becoming friends with Bette will only strengthen their relationship once they begin to look at one another a little deeper. Thanks! Oh, and Rocky, if you just happen to find another chapter just hanging out… I’m just saying…
Great chapter. You’re almost as good as Rocky!
