“It’s in the garage, daddy kept it there after you left”
Surprise lit Bette’s face in a way that made Kit smile even wider and she watched as her younger sister ran upstairs to change out of her pajamas.
Kit chuckled as she shook her head and faced the sink to clean the dishes, “Some things never change”
***
Bette stood frozen in place, watching as the basketball soared through the air to land expertly in the hoop. She grinned, pleased to see that she hadn’t lost her touch even after so many years. She jogged to the ball bouncing on its own just under the net, taking it in her hands and feeling completely at ease.
She could never understand why or how holding a basketball in her hand easily calmed her, making her forget about the turmoil in her life. It had always been like that, even when she was in high school struggling with rapid approaching adulthood. There was just something about the game itself that made Bette feel safe, as if she hadn’t a care in the world.
She hadn’t played or even held a ball since she left for college and Bette found she had missed it more than she ever would have thought possible. She made a mental note to buy a small hoop for her loft back in New York.
She dribbled the ball with an ease that no one would have guessed she was technically out of practice. She spun around to face the hoop and jumped backwards, launching the ball into the air with perfect grace. Once again she hit her mark, watching as the ball went into the hoop effortlessly.
“Ohhhh she’s back! Ladies and gentleman, Bette Porter is back on the court!”
Bette let out a breath of laughter as she jogged to retrieve the ball, turning around to face Dana who stood at the end of her driveway. She felt as though she had stepped through a time warp to see Dana standing before her, her entire outfit like a blast from the past.
Dressed in a blue tank top, a pair of black basketball shorts and black sneakers, Dana looked just as ready to play a game as Bette was.
Having the benefit of growing up across the street from one another, that’s always how it had been for them. No matter the day or the time, neither girl had ever played a solo game for long. If one had spotted the other at her respective basketball hoop, a one on one game was inevitable.

Happy to see a new update to this story. :)
I’ll be back with the comment after i read it. Tks Liah
Thank you for an update!
Haven’t read it yet, but it’s probably just as good as the rest!
Hey Liah,
Glad to read a new chapter!!!!
Bette is kidding herself that she could love Emma when she finds the closure she needs from Tina. Tina had and always have her heart.
Melvin is a very cold man, i dislike him immensely! What ever he said to Tina seven years back, it scared her and let her go of Bette. It is true that Bette is succesfull due to her moving away, but Bette’s a smart woman and would be succesfull anyway.
I really want to know about what happened in Tina’s life the last seven years, it looks like her mother is sick, but there is more than that.
I hope they can talk soon again and that Bette is able to listen to Tina with a open mind and heart. Their chemistry is still there, the love never went away and they deserve to start over.
Enjoyed the update, please update asap!!!!
Loved the new chapter. I know Bette needs answers, but she can see that something very traumatic happened to Tina and probably not just what Melvin said that night and the next morning. I hope they get to talk sooner rather than later so she can tell Bette everything whether that changes anything in Bette’s life or not is yet to be determined. I eagerly await your next chapter. PPVS
Thank you for the update. I was so happy I didn’t have work today. So, I could read in a bit of relaxation. I hope these two come together in the end. Can’t wait for you to post again! :)
Thank you for the chapter!
I must say i don’t like this Bette for now. If she wants to move on with her “beautiful girlfriend” – then she don’t need so desperately try to get her answer about what happen seven years ago. What it would change?
And like the others – i’m very curious about Tina past. What is she doing the last seven years, what the deal with her mother?
Waiting for the next!
Thank you for the post, really enjoyed it and look forward to the next ASAP!
Like the relationship with Dana.
Bette needs to get rid of Emma and consent rate on how she feels about Tina.
Looking forward to more of my favourite couple soon.

Thank you so much for the update!
I love a good Bette and Tina reunion, though it sounds like Tina definitely has had the rough end of this separation.
I’m loving this story and can’t wait until the next post!
Loving your story. Thanks
Back to give my comment for this story,
I knew I never like melvin in any stories i read cos he was always a jerk when it comes to bette n tina’s relation. And he was way more a jerk in this one.. he manipulated his own daughter, forced her leaving her love one, and he thought become a star in her study, success in her career and have a lot money would make her life happy…who the hell he was to decide which one was the best for bette and which one was not.
I wondered what happened with Tina’s parent that made her end up became a bartender without any high education at all? What was she do with her live for the past 7 years ?? Did she has / had a relationship with someone else after bette left?
Can’t wait to see what would bette do to melvin when she realized that melvin was lying to her all this time..
Anyway, great chapter Liah..i wished you would give us few more pages longer tho.. :)
Will wait eagerly for the next one
I guess Tina’s mother has a mental illness or something like that but yeah .. only you can tell so please please don’t let us wait too long for the next chapter.
Such an amazing story !
Just caught up and am loving the story!
Thanks for an enjoyable read.
Looking forward to the next update.
