    Chapter 9

    "I think our friends think Angelica’s a little spoiled." Tina confessed. "I think they could be right."

    "Given what we went through with her," Bette let her voice drift off.

    "And she’s troublesome." Tina added, trying to avert Bette’s trip down memory lane.

    Bette grinned, and smiled at the woman above her. "As Alice once said, it could be how her earliest memories might be of Helena Peabody."

    Tina gave her a wry look. "Funny."

    Bette let a wicked smile prey on her lips, and reached up, pulling Tina to her, letting their lips meet.

    "Close the door!" Angelica exclaimed.

    Bette and Tina turned towards their door.

    "That was closed," Bette replied.

    "Well, lock it, or whatever." Angelica said. She looked at her mothers. "Am I going to school tomorrow?"

    "Are you up to it?" Bette asked.

    "If that’s giving me the option not to go to school, I’d be psychotic to refuse," Angelica told her.

    "Yours," Bette coughed, looking at Tina.

    Tina shook her head, and addressed Angelica. "Seeing how you’re up and about and being smart, I think you’re perfectly able to go to school."

    "But MaBe just asked — " Angelica began to protest.

    Tina looked at her.

    Bette glanced at Tina, and then at the teenager at their doorway. She always enjoyed these silent talks between mother and child, as the two seemed to communicate volumes in their expressions. Angelica was infinitely easier to read, and when she gave in to Tina Kennard Bette knew exactly how Angelica felt.

    "Ugh. Fine. But I’m not taking the bus."

    "Of course you are." Tina said flatly.

    Angelica frowned, and looked at her other mother. "MaBe, Jake’s offered to…"

    "I haven’t talked to Jake in a while," Bette mused, mostly for her and Tina’s enjoyment of the look of dread on Angelica’s face. She smiled at her eldest. "If I can talk to him and his mother, I’m sure we can reach an agreement."

    "Fine, I’m taking the bus." Angelica muttered. "’Night, mom. ‘Night, MaBe."

    "Hey, don’t we get a kiss?" Tina asked.

    8. The reference to Skipton is Shelly, Bette’s assistant.God I love your writing! I too wish that the L Word has some dedicated writers…but I dream! I didn’t see last night’s episode, not b/c of the super bowl but b/c I can’t be bothered staying awake til 10 to be depressed, so I catch it on Mondays at 9, where I can get an extra hour of sleep b4 work the next day. Wow! That’s a far cry from S1 when I’d watch them back to back on Sundays and wake up bright eyed and bushy tailed for work on Monday.

    14. TD, Again, another magnificent stroke from the master. This story is going from strength to strength as I get to peek inside the lives of this family. The dialogue and dramatic scenes are pitched perfectly. I can feel the love from this household as well as the desperate need to protect, care for and teach their children from Bette and Tina. Parent can only show you the way and then trust that you will follow it. We all know that Angel is basically a good kid but does seem to be the nose for finding trouble. It is good to see that Tina has lost none of her ability to read people as Bette only see the surface. The argument with Jake being a prime example of this. I would like to see more of Katie’s take of this and her relationship with her sister. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Can’t wait for you next installment. Thank you so much for this fabulous fan fic. Your Loyal Fan

    20. Another wonderful chapter, Tiff! Loved it, and not just for showing Bette’s tender bond with Katie (thanks :D). The writing and voice you apply to each character are spot on. I saw last night’s episode and definitely preferred reading this story to watching what unfolded on the scene. Ugh, can we be done with this season alrady??
