Tina felt her breath hitch as the first real smile in more than 24 hours found its way back to her face.

South Beach Bar & Grille – Ocean Beach, San Diego
Bette and James were laughing hysterically at a story James was telling about an early career gig mix up that landed one of his goth-punk bands at a hog-tying competition on a remote ranch and his country musician client at a vampire convention.
“You’ve gotta be kidding me?” Bette asked while laughing.
“I swear to you! Cody came back with bite marks from a couple of goth chicks who cornered him in the parking lot and he was convinced that he was one of the undead.” A giggling James recounted.
“And the band?”
“I’ve never seen rope burns that bad, ever!”
“Oh my god, that’s classic!”
“Yeah, I’ve gotten into the habit of triple checking each artist’s itinerary before sending them off.”
Bette shook her head, still chuckling.
“You need another Blue Moon, ‘cause I’m gonna grab another Stone Pale?”
“What the hell, I’m on vacation, right?” Bette answered with a smile.
“How are those mahi tacos by the way?”
“Fantastic. You were right, this is one damn fine fish taco joint.”
“Right on.”
The waitress came by and James placed an order for another round of drinks for Bette and himself. The band manager had yet to discuss the Stouts or what her business plan was with him, so as the silence took over the small table, James was beginning to wonder what she had in mind.
“So, are you looking for bands to do some jingles, or what’s your story?”
Bette smiled. “You think I wanna put your talent to work writing jingle ads?”
“I’m not really sure what to think. Why don’t you enlighten me Ms. Porter?” James grinned. Bette appreciated his light-hearted approach. Based on the stories he was telling her, he was more interested in going to free shows and listening to the music live, as opposed to making a quick buck. She liked him instantly, and thought he could be a good match for her friends.

Well written chapter. See, cooler heads are prevailing and hard hearts are softening. They love each other.
Hahahha…good one you hold up your side of the bargain but I fear that the blanche is not right! I have 7 pages…you have 3! you owe me 4 more chuckle! Loved this chapter and to be quite honest if you only gave us one page I would love it just as much…. So happy they are talking again… By whatever means! Hope Friday is good for you and the weekend even better ;0) The day has already started here so in about 10 hours the w/e should start for me! Thanks kx
Omg , I can’t wait till you post again !!!!
Well it can be such great experience, but so exhausting at the same time!!!!!Starting on monday, I’m on holidays!!!!! Like this chapter, thanks for update!!!!
Gotta say – still lovin’ this story. pps
Yeah, they are textibg again. James ex boss has to be Jodi.Loved it. PPS
Great chapter. So glad they are at least talking to each other by some means. I gather from Bette and James’ conversation that they were talking about jodi and maybe Tina, but definitely jodi, too many descriptions of her behavior that matches her to a tee. Hope Bette asks him who he was talking about. But I just know it is jodi. Glad Bette has made the decision to go to Austin with Tina. They do need the time together. Thanks.
Again-I love your story.Thank you for the update.
