Playing By Heart
Chapter 70
Downtown San Diego
Tina had butterflies. Sitting in the back of the Town Car that Aaron had arranged for her, she looked out the window at the gridlock of a Saturday evening in downtown San Diego.
I hope she doesn’t freak out that I’m here, she thought to herself. The blonde was especially worried that Bette would think that she was playing games by not telling her that she was coming to the show. Pondering the reaction she received from Bette after she told her about her meeting with Joyce, Tina was now beginning to second guess her judgment again.
She had spent the day walking along the harbor and checking out the little touristy shops in Seaport Village, people watching, and reflecting on what she was going to say to her girlfriend when they finally saw each other again.
When she came across the Hornblower Cruise booth, she couldn’t help but remember the romantic dinner cruise she and Bette went on for their first date. It had only been a week since that night, but it already felt like months for Tina. In the entire six months she dated Eric, Tina was in no way harboring the strong emotional attachment to him as she was with this woman. In fact, never in all of her years of dating men had she experienced such a tremendous feeling of want, desire, and care the way she felt about Bette.
She was truly falling in love with her. It was the only explanation for the multitude of emotions Tina was suffering from. But she knew it was something she had to keep a lid on for now. She didn’t want to scare Bette away with such intensity. Knowing that Bette was already on edge about being the first woman Tina’s ever been with only furthered the concern that the brunette might possibly want to pull away from Tina.
Tina was all sighs in the backseat. A tinge of regret was beginning to seep in from telling Bette that she thought she was falling for her. She didn’t even respond, the blonde thought. You’re such an idiot, Kennard! Tina continued mentally chastising herself as the driver finally noticed her furrowed brow in the rearview mirror.

Booyah! It’s an extended play (pun intended) of my favorite musical odyssey. Yabba-dabba frikin’ DOO! And to top it off, I scored sexy points from YOU!?! Awww, you warmed my heart and made me blush (which if you knew me you’d know ain’t easy ;). I will think of you this weekend whilst gigging with my band. Now that you’ve confirmed my “sneaking suspicion” that James was referring to Jodie, will we find that he and Bette conspire to pull the rug out from under Aaron by becoming the Stouts’ agent too??? That would be so deliciously wicked! Loved how you wrote T&B’s reunion – I could feel the high voltage energy (I’m such a romantic schmo :) . And as much as I am head over heels for all things TiBette, Shane in Aviator glasses sounded really HOT! I love, Love, LOVE this story MeLL. As always, I patiently await your next post. Hope you have a awesome weekend. (PS – I like the cliff hangers. Are you and Kins competing for who can dole out the most sweet torture on your adoring readers?)

What a great update! Bette and Tina seem back on track. And don’t worry I won’t expect you to double post ( just a welcomed surprise when you do). I just love this story, so keep up the good writing. Still waiting to see what happens when they’re alone at the Austin music festival. I see sparks for sure :-)

Now that’s what I wanted to read. I see that James does know Tina, I hope that it is good. And the moment that Bette and Tina saw one another was powerful and wonderful, I loved it. I hope when they get out of there it is to a place to talk a little and then play a lot.

I think I missed that story as much as everyobody else…. but I am realising it is my own fault since you won’t post if I don’t! I feel that for the sake of your fans I should release you from arrangement. It’ll be doubly good for me also as I consider myself a great fan! You batted well my friend and as usual it is a home run! Thanks chuckle Kx

Great update. So glad they have each made apologies and are okay with each other. I just knew when James was telling Bette about what happened it was Jodi and Tina he was talking about. That bad woman is really a piece of work. Hopefully Bette will tell her to go to hell when she talks to her again because we know jodi will not give up. Now let the girls get on with their weekend and Bette can tell Tina she will go to Austin with her. Can hardly wait for the next chapter. Thanks.
