Put it up to your ear…what do you hear…Chapter 6
Her eyes raised up off the floor, where they had been focused, and gave Meg an apologetic look. “See…told you…pathetic.”
“Jesus Bette.” Meg walked over and drew her friend into a comforting hug. “Not pathetic. Sad maybe…heartbreaking definitely……but not pathetic.” Letting go, she tried to lighten the mood. “The good news is, that all the extra money you are making because of this room, is helping to pay for the best therapist in town!” She nodded her head and wiggled her eyebrows. “Of course, it’s only fair that he helped with the idea for this room, since he is the reason you are in therapy in the first place!”
Bette furrowed her eyebrows, and lowered her voice…warning her friend to not go there, just by how she sternly said her name. “Mmmeg.”
Knowing she was on dangerous ground, she quickly raised her hands in surrender. “Okay, okay…there will be no dissing of Melvin The Great today.”
Bette laughed at that, and shook her head at her friend’s nick name for her father. “Say what you will, but if it wasn’t for him…”
Meg interrupted, finishing Bette’s sentence for her…having heard it dozens of times before. “I know, I know……. “I would have never been able to open this gallery!” This time it was Meg letting out the big sigh. “Okay, grab your purse and let’s get out of here. The celebration begins right now! In fact, just to show you how appreciative I am, I will even make a toast in honor of MTG…and how much his “help” has “helped” you out!”
Before Bette could give Meg another warning, her best friend had turned, and was heading out the door, telling Bette to, “Come on, the ice in my drink is melting!”
Across town at Alphaville Studios…
Tina’s intercom buzzed, and she heard the voice of her assistant, Shelly. “Tina, Eric is on line three.”
“Okay, thanks,” she answer back. Taking a deep breath, she picked up the phone. “Hey…”
“Hey Tina. How is your day going?”
Tina looked to her right, seeing a pile of personnel files. It was time for annual reviews for all the staff in her department, and she needed to peruse each of their files, and make notes. Then she looked to her left, seeing a pile of scripts…whether it was a new script to read, or one that needed some re-writes…no matter, they all needed her immediate attention.

Welcome back and thank you so much for posting – what a great, wonderful and sad post. I like the twist with Tinas commitment issues and Bette probably is having the same issues…because they haven’t meet their soulmates yet. I’m so hooked – please post as often as possible.
it’s always awesome reading something from Sea the Great. and why does she have to commit??? you ask me it’s way overrated!!!
Wow, guess you know we all missed you! It’s great having you back. Great post, can’t wait for your next one. Thanks for dropping us a post when you can.
WOW thnx dude..I hope B&T meet up soon&discover true luv :)
*yay* G’day once more. Great chapter. I’m a huge fan of yours
Admittedly, I didn’t anticipate a leap of five years into the future. That’s one of the things I enjoy about your writing – you don’t follow any particular formula. Now you’ve given us a great back story to work from – perfect as usual! Look forward to much more of this story from your talented self.
Oh I was soooo excited when I seen your post, another fantastic chapter look forward to the next one
so glad to read your story today – your writing voice is so rich, the emotions so vivid, thanks for the depth even if it means we must wait a bit between chapters.
good chapter Sea. good to see you back . love your story
Nice to have you back Sea.Tina can’t commit because of a certain brunette museum director.Hope to see another chapter soon.
Miss Unpredictability: Didn’t we just have a nice little chat about this highly addictive tale you’ve got here? You’re leaving me hanging sweetie and all I can say is (tapping foot on floor) your writing flows so easily that I can’t help but follow it. Just whistle when high maintenance Eric has been kicked to the curb and one Bette Porter pulls up. Always a pleasure Sea…
Great to see that you’re back and you’ve posted another wonderful chapter, Seahurst. Does Tina’s non-committal behaviour to relationships have anything to do with that ‘giggle’ from the seashell? And that grown up, sexy version of her ‘giggle’ she heard 5 years ago at that party? Looking forward to when she hears the giggle again and be able to meet the owner of that giggle.
wow is all i can say. can we all say, bette. she needs a bette. fergz baby, what a night. my trainer killed me. i need a drink but you have to bring it to me. k. thanks sea, it was lovely as usual. lets just get rid of eric now and not later. thanks.
Looks like things are happening right on schedule for Bette and Tina. :) Thanks for the update, Sea! Can’t wait to find out how exactly you’ll have Tina discover the one behind “the giggle.”
A seashell and a giggle. Yet you are going to make us a beautiful story out of this. thanks
BEAUTITIFUL… waiting patiently (ok really impatiently) to read more.THANK YOU!!!
Great story. Have always loved your stories. Looking forward to more.
sea….I was so excited to see your post! My heart is waiting for the next chapter. albeez..will be along later with the drinks. Thank you and please post soon
YAY, SHE’S BACK!!!!Welcome home Sea…..I just wanted to be first…will be back after I read it!
hmmmmm what could be behind this inability to commit to her men????More!
OMG! YES!!! You’re back! I am loving this! Thanks for posting. I have a big smile on my face! This is a great start to my busy morning! Yipppppiiiiieeeeeee!Hmmmmm, I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall when Tina and Dave broke it off. I wonder what happened with Tina back then, to be shy of commitment. Could it have been a certain ‘giggle’ or what? What does the seashell say?I anxiously await the next chapter of this story. So far, I cannot say enough good things about it! I have been captivated, enthralled, and simply hooked since the first prommising chapter months ago. Great storyline, Sea!
Good to see you back Sea. I like the movement forward of 5 years and Tina not being able to commit.
Good to see you back and good chapter here. Ok post soon please, thanks!
OOOH! OOOH! I know why!! maybe she’s a lesbian….. you think??? please post more sooooooon! keep writing. I’ll be reading.
Ok Sea I don’t know what I can say that has not been said before…so here are some repeats…I love your story…I am so glad that you are back and I will wait as long as you need me to for the post, but I would really love to read it so please don’t make me and all the people who love reading your stories wait too long…Thank you for writing you truly made my day

Great chapter, it feels like you are back to your best. Beautifully written as ever
wow, what a twist. now, can I have a little hope that they’ll meet each other on the anniversary party? it’s a great story, thank you for writing it.
wow !!
Hi Sea – I may be wrong (and hope that I am), but it seems that you are fighting with this story a bit…maybe trying to decide which angle to go to bring it all together. I wish it would flow as easy as your first story for you. My point is I want you to know that we really appreciate when you post a story. I love your style and storylines and hope this is all a joy for you and not a writer’s block fight. By the way, I like the new twist you have thrown in here – great chapter (as usual).
finally you’re back…how’s England treating you” i hope good because this chapter is great, can’t wait for B&T to meet again, please make it be soon…i adore this story
