The two women held hands as they walked over to the merchandise table. Max had been selling CDs when they arrived and Tori and James had found their way to the dancefloor.
“Max, this is Tina!” Bette hollered into Max’s ear over the music. “Tina, Max. We work together!” Max and Tina smiled and shook hands.
Bette laughed at James and Tori dancing with one another. James certainly did not possess any rhythm whatsoever, but was still shaking it on the floor like no other. The brunette pointed him out to Tina.
“That’s James. He’s an agent that we’re in talks with right now.”
Tina looked to where Bette was pointing. Her eyes widened in recognition. I’d know those sideburns anywhere, she thought to herself. “I think I know him!” Tina said loudly into Bette’s ear.
“Oh yeah?” Bette asked. At the same moment, the Stouts had ended their first song and the applause was thunderous throughout the tavern.
“Thanks ya’ll!” Kit said into the microphone. Both Bette and Tina clapped and cheered for the band.
James and Tori stepped off the dance floor and came back to where the women were standing with Max.
“James, this is my girlfriend – ”
“Tina?” James asked surprised.
“Hi, James.”
“Okay, so how do you two know each other?” Bette asked.
“You still working for Jodi, James?”
It was now Bette’s eyes that widened.
“Nah, I quit shortly after that deal with Alphaville went down.” James averted his eyes from Tina’s.
“Wait, you used to work for Jodi Lerner?” Bette asked James.
“Yeah. Remember that bitch I was telling you about? She’s the one.”
“You could say that again.” Tina said out loud before she could stop herself.
Bette whipped her head around to her girlfriend, whose hand went directly to her mouth. The ad executive couldn’t help but start laughing before pulling her girl into another hug.
“You guys will definitely have to tell me about that one.” Bette said, still chuckling at her girlfriend’s unfiltered statement. It was the first time she actually heard Tina say something about Jodi since they met.
Tori and Tina were introduced, and the band had started playing their next tune. The couples danced and had a good time together. Bette and Tina would sneak kisses here and there, happy to be back in each other’s arms. Tina loved that Shane was back in her Aviators on the drums and Bette teased her girlfriend about the karaoke she belted out. Tina took the ribbing, making a mental note that the brunette would pay for it later.
The Stouts finished up their set and finally came out of the green room to meet up with Bette and everyone else. James introduced himself and hung out with the band the rest of the night. CDs were selling like hot cakes after their performance, and Kit and the other members were more than happy to scribble their autographs on the discs for their adoring fans.
Once Ozomatli took the stage, the entire crowd was on the dancefloor. Bette and Tina swayed slowly together during each song, no matter how fast the tempo was. Before the last encore was played, Bette was ready to escape with her girlfriend in tow.
“Do you wanna get outta here?” She whispered, her sultry tone evident to the blonde.
Tina just looked at her with a cocked eyebrow and nodded ever so slightly.

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 :-)
Looks like they’re going to get bussssy. ;-)
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.
What???? How could stop there? Please tell me the next chapter is coming soon, real soon? I missed your story!!!!!
Did I mention that I can’t go 7 days without a meloveslu fix?
Oh no not again, you such a tease my friend ahahha. That was great and glad Bette and Tina are ok and now let see some B&T hot stuff please lol. Please post more, thanks!
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
Absolutely wonderful sigh! How i love this story :) More please soon :)
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.
Brilliant!!!!! Bette has better thoughts now, all because of love. I hope they will be good for real now. Keep it up.
I just knew as soon as I started to read this update you were going to leave us hanging with a cliff. Great update as usual.
I`m glad they are back together.Thank you very much for another amazing update.PPS
Woah MeLL :-0 …. No doubt! Today is a day of seating on the edge of my seat! First Kins, now you… I hope this won’t become a trend to be followed by other writers as it won’t be good for the condition of my heart :-p lol…and one week is so looongggg…. Especially if you sit only on the edge!? Its called Torture not teasing anymore ;-p he3… anyway thanks for the update… I do enjoy reading your story, so believe me that you are indeed a good writer who’s doing a very well done job ;-)
