After dropping Tina at home in Santa Monica Bette drove straight to her house in West Hollywood. As she pulled into the driveway she received the call from Francesca. She immediately put the car in reverse and drove to Peggy’s beach house in Malibu.
Bette had security access and keys so she was able to get into the house without waking up the entire household. She found Francesca sitting up bed. Bette had read about Braxton Hicks contractions in ‘What to Expect When You Are Expecting’ and they’d talked about it in the birthing classes so she knew they were a normal part of the pregnancy at this stage. She also knew how uncomfortable they were for the expectant mother and what was suggested to ease them. She sat on Francesca’s bed and asked how she was doing.
“They’ve eased up a bit. Your suggestion to change positions helped.
“Would you like me to run you a bath?”
“No I think I’m OK but now I’m wide awake. Will you stay with me?”
“Sure. Do you think Alex wants to hear a bedtime story?”
“Let me guess… Monkeys Go On Strike?”
“Don’t laugh. Monkeys Go On Strike was my favorite second only to Aardvark Makes Pasta.”
“Then Monkeys Go On Strike it is.”
Bette took off her shoes and got into bed with Francesca. She sat with her back against the soft headboard and told the story from memory. It was unusual for Bette to share a bed with a woman she wasn’t intimately involved with, but as she lay next to Francesca she couldn’t help but think how this intimacy beat having sex with some random woman any day of the week. After a while Francesca relaxed, the contractions eased and she was finally able to sleep. Bette gently got out of the bed so as not to disturb the mother of her child and went to her own bedroom in Peggy’s mansion where she spent the night.
“That’s right Al you can stop worrying about how and with whom I’m spending my nights. Francesca and Alex are my priority right now. So let’s plan this baby shower shall we?”
“Where are you having it Bette? Marina asked in the pronounced Italian accent.

Glad Valerie called Tina out on things….Tina is stubborn but she is slowly figuring out what she wants but she can’t expect Bette to wait around while she gets her shit together ..But she’s trying to make time for Bette and her friends now and she still needs to kick Eric to the curb as she continues to make excuses for him and why she is with him…
I agree Tina needs to sort out her life…..does she want Eric or Bette?
Hey BAT, so enjoying your story. I love the way you’ve developed your characters. Tina has an edge to her that is rough and insecure and shows off a tendency to be aggressive and unsure of herself. A new tilt in a story about her and Bette is someone we’d all love to have in our corner as a friend, lover or partner. She kind, generous, brilliant, so gorgeous and SO patient with Tina.
Now Tina is finally waking up to parts of her self that really aren’t too pretty. I wouldn’t care to know her in this story with the personality that she has. I loved that Valerie called her on her shit, as someone had to. This ‘open relationship’ stuff really isn’t what its all about as she uses it to hide behind.
She must have been really hurt in some past relationship as she doesn’t seem to trust allowing others in too deep. Well, as they say, all good things must pass and if she isn’t careful, Bette will be gone sooner than she thinks and her chance at a relationship of amazing quality will be blowing in the wind!
Excellent piece of writing my friend! Thank you!
IMO, this was one of the top chapters in this story. Tina is kind of floating around , not anchored to anyone. Tina has to decide if she wants a committed relationship and with whom. If she wants a “just friends w/benefits” type of life so be it but when she is older she will regret losing “the one that got away”. She is very insecure when it comes to her “relationship” w/Eric. It is a soulless relationship only sexual. She may care for him b/c he is relatively nice to her but Bette is all good things plus she is exciting. She would lavish all kinds of attention upon Tina or any partner. It’s just her nature.
I appreciate the frequent and longer postings.
Val summed the whole truth in this conversation with Tina.
Now she has to take a foot in the ass of Erik.
Great chapter.
10 stars.!
Nice Chapter I enjoyed it. You have given Bette such a lovely character here which makes you just want to go and be part of her life. Glad Val has knocked some sense into Tina and I hope she will now kick Eric into touch asap!
