Playing By Heart
“Send the offer to Wischnia. See if you can get a meeting with them before the Tuesday gig.”
“Fine.”
The bald man turned to leave her office and stopped just short of the doorway. “One more thing, I have no problem pullin’ chicks. Just so we’re clear.” His tone was embittered and as he made his exit, Tina was finally free to roll her eyes.
After a few deep breaths, Tina cracked a smile. “Too bad I pulled a hotter chick than you could ever dream of pulling, asshat.”

Bette’s House
“So 10 o’clock, Joyce’s office, right?” Alice confirmed.
“Yes. Do you all have the address?” Bette asked the band as they sat outside on her patio deck just as the sun was beginning to set.
“We got it.” Shane assured while the rest of the band nodded their heads and murmured in agreement.
Kit caught Bette’s eye sitting across the table from her younger sister. The younger Porter nodded slightly, knowing that it was the right time to tell the band about the pending deal they would hear about tomorrow. Both women were a bit worried about how the other members would take the news. Of course, there was no danger of Kit leaving the band to strike out on her own. But it was important to be sensitive to their feelings.
“Guys, I wanted to talk to you about some of the things we’ll be discussing tomorrow.” Bette began, looking around and making sure she had everyone’s attention.
“Well, isn’t James gonna be there?” Alice asked.
“Yes, he will be. And I think we are all in agreement that he’s the agent we want instead of Jodi Lerner, right?” Bette again looked around, hearing and seeing nothing but agreement. “Good. That issue is settled then.”
“What other issues are there?” asked Angus.
All eyes were on Bette with the exception of Kit, who bent her head and stared at the table. Bette shifted in her seat, her nerves beginning to show.
“I spoke with Tina this past week, and, um,” Bette swallowed, taking her time in relaying the information. “It turns out that her boss heard about your show at the Planet.”
Alice immediately smirked, thinking that this was the part where Bette revealed that there was an offer on the table.

It was so great to have a post from you!!!!! Can’t wait to see what happens next!!! I’d like to mention tomorrows my b-day , I would love to see another post!! Just saying
Well long lost friend, glad to see you posting. I have missed this story. Loved it
Great update. Hope their negotiations are successful. Really happy that our girls have been able to get together and hopefully stay together even with aaron’s bs looming over them. thanks.
She’s alive! Meloveslu lives and fucking breathes!!! I’ve missed this story much more than i can articulate. Please don’t leave us waiting this long for your next post. As I’ve mentioned before, your writing is incredibly delicious. Hurry up and grace us with another serving of creative and delightful prose. Thanks :-)
AWOL, indeed! If only I’d had a picture of you, I would have distributed “lost” posters. Glad you’re back as my withdrawal symptoms were becoming overwhelming! Love snarky, alpha Tina… and the line “Tina was finally free to roll her eyes.” Perfect. Look forward to their meeting with Joyce, the Queen of one-liners.
Thanks for the post. I sure hope Bette and Tina’s new relatonship survive this label signing.
Yea MeLL, you’re BACK!!! Ahhh, band dynamics, gotta love it (LOL). Glad to see them sticking together. And while I’d hate to be in her shoes, I thought Bette did a good job of presenting the pending offer. Could Aaron be more of a DORK! “You think this is some kind of play to sleep with a stripper?” … uh, that’d be a YES! I hope Joyce cleans his proverbial clock. Can hardly wait to see what happens next!
Missing you terribly
(Damnit ! Wrong key!) as I was saying you find yourself on ‘jankers’, your punishment will be decided later! ;0) have a lovely weekend though whilst I ponder and a great Halloween too! :0) Kx
Go Tina…! Tell it the way it is…. :0) I felt so sorry for Bette for a second. I could feel the discomfort at having to start this potential disastrous conversation, very well handled! As for you young lady, you fond yourself on jankers
I don’t know if i’ve said this before but your chapter titles always make me smile. Thank you for updating.
it was so greate i am glad you came back mmmmoooorrreeee please i enjoy your story thank you that was amazing update
Welcome back! Hope you were at least having fun while being m.i.a. I can’t belive what an idiot Aaron is…and Tina had every right to put him in his place. So glad that Bette was honest w/ the band about the offer for Kit and that they all took it so well. Next up is the counter-offer…wonder what it’ll be and then off to Austin for Tina where hopefully Bette can join her for a little fun. Don’t stay away so long next time.
Missed you.Thank you for the update.Great story.PPS.

Thats great and dont like aaron!
