Bette reached for a large envelope that was in the pile of opened mail. Across the top it read for Bette Porter’s eyes only. She stared at the unfamiliar name of the sender. How very odd she thought as she began to open up the envelope to see what was inside.
Tina smiled at her phone. Everyday since she and Bette reconciled, Tina thanked the powers that be for this gift. She was complete again and Bette was the reason. Tina texted Shelly Arkass, her assistant, to make reservations at 71Above, A strong contender for the most beautiful restaurant in LA. 71Above was perched atop Downtown’s US Bank Tower. Since their daughter was out for the evening, a little romance could be put on the agenda, Tina smiled as she thought out a plan for the evening.
A few hours later, Bette walked into the Los Angeles Peabody Gallery to meet James, the Gallerist and her old friend. The gallery at this time was transitioning showings, so there was nothing on the walls. Bette walked up the back stairs and knocked on James’ open door.
”You’re early.” James said as he looked up from the pile of papers that were sitting on his desk.
”I have dinner plans and I was hoping we could get through the pile of nominations.” Bette smiled as she entered the room.
”Oh, yeah… about that, I know we need to go through them, but a friend of Julie’s, Fiona Michaelson is coming by. She is the new Dean of the Art History Department at UCLA and I promised to introduce her to you. She has an interesting proposition for you.” An insecure expression grew on his face as James looked at Bette.
Bette lowered her head shaking it in a deliberate manner as she dropped into the chair across from James. ”Seriously, James? We need to get through this tonight, otherwise I am sending over Dani tomorrow. I want to get an idea of what we are looking at for the Gala.”
”I know, I know.” He said as he stood and came around his desk sitting in the chair next to Bette’s. ”I kinda promised at dinner a couple nights ago. Please, it won’t take long. I am sorta in the dog house and this will help smooth things out with Julie.”

Hey Lady,
WooHoo!!!!! You posted!!!!!
Can’t wait to read your update & welcome back!!!!
Will get to it this weekend – I promise!!!
I am so excited for you!!!!
Will comment soon.
All the best my friend.
Hi! I write again when i read it full, but i remember the history about this two exhibition – i remember that amount of people who attended the second exhibition ”Degenerate art” was huge, much more than approved by nazi ”German Art ”
P.S. Thank you for the new (continuation) story!
Hey SuperK,
Again, welcome back to the site. You have been missed.
Glad to see the continuation of this story. Love them being back together.
So it seems there will be lots if twists & turns to this part of the story.
Hope this memory of Laura doesn’t interfere with the Tibette relationship this time around.
I have viewed many shows on this subject of the missing art & where many of the pieces still might be that haven’t been recovered yet. Very interesting.
So glad to see James back & in partnership again with Bette. They were a very good team.
Hope Bette & Tina keep the lines of communication open & avoid some of the earlier pitfalls of their relationship.
Looking forward to how this will all unfold.
Thanks so much!!!
Hey, you’re back … excellent !
Interesting story, can’t wait to know more.
This is a very interesting story plot line….. a missing painting from the Nazi era…. the convergence of the subject matter being so coincidently landing at Bette doorstep at the same time….
I’m afraid that I will have go back and reread the prior story as I simply do not remember what time frame this story is taking place nor what Bette and Tina’s relationship is with each other than they are together and that they seem to be infatuated with each other.
A mature stable couple would never have a problem with a lover prior to their relationship which occurred 20 to 25 years ago particularly when the other party is dead. So unlike other commenters, I could see no more problems with this Laura character for Tina anymore than I could see Eric being a problem for Bette. They are a part of their history which is long past….
I see that this is a golden opportunity for Bette and Tina to work as a team on a project which they both have a mutual interest in – Bette in the art world and its preservation and Tina in the movie script for potential production.
Thank you for this beginning….
Hey welcome back,
Interesting start and i am hooked.
Like Tina, what a coincidental for all that to happen now and Tina got a script exactly a year before?
I love to read about the WWII and especially about the Nazi’s.
Delighted to see a new story from you.
I have reread the whole story of Love Loss and Living and completely enjoyed it, thank you. Now I am really keyed up for this new adventure and trust my favourite couple will be taking the journey together.
Looking forward to more posts.
Super K
I am really happy to see this chapter for several reasons. First, I love that you are back and more wonderful than ever and secondly this is such an intriguing plot that I can’t wait to see where you take it. I agree with Martha that there should not be any concern from a relationship that happened so long ago but I am sure there are twists and turns to come as you research and write more. For now, I will bask in the knowledge that there is more to come and enjoy the ride you are taking us on. Peace my friend and for the sake of our escapism please write more!
