    Remember Who You Are 16

    I told him that she had approved and asked for what I arranged. Apparently, he verified this with my travel agent, who called me to confirm some changes in room location Eric had requested. I would not sign off on any changes and, as far as I know, the set up I put together is still in effect. I will confirm that with the agent and hotel in the morning. The agent assured me that only I can make changes to our itinerary.

    Today, he asked me not accompany Tina on the trip, since his own staff would be there and could handle any admin or support needs Tina would have while traveling. I have an adjoining room to Tina, one of a few the hotel offers, and an arrangement we always make because Tina will often work late into the night when the festivities continue in other parts of the hotel.

    She likes to review material before the meetings the next day and with this trip including other production companies she will work long into the night. I believe he was trying to cancel this setup or split us up on different floors, although I have no proof of this yet.

    Bette, I am nervous about this trip. I am asking you to keep this in confidence as it is just a hunch I have but I cannot sleep if I don’t share my concerns with you. I know Tina is working from home until we leave for Chicago. Please call me tomorrow.
    Lara

    Bette sat back in her chair and glanced at the clock. Two hours had passed since she had sat down and the evening was slowly descending on the day, bright light being replaced by dusky colors, the reds and orange of the sunset replaced by blues and black of night. She rubbed her face, suddenly feeling the weight of the day.

    She sent a quick reply to Lara, making her decision without reservation or hesitation.

    Lara,
    I appreciate your email more than you will ever know. Please book me on the first flight to Chicago, I need to arrive in the evening of the first day of your trip.

    I will have some loose ends to tie up the morning after the Gallery Opening but can leave by noon. Send me the itinerary and include where you can. I will share a room with Tina, there is no need to change the accommodations. Leave this between us for now. Keep me posted.
    Bette

    Walking back to the bedroom to wake her bride, Bette felt a sense of trepidation. There was no way she was going to let Eric interfere with or hurt Tina in any way.

    Next: The days before the Opening and the Opening itself…

    1. Go Lara!!! Brillant for her to inform Bette as to Eric’s activity. Smart for Bette to go to Chicago to be with Tina. She will be available for whatever Tina needs. Tina will be more courageous with Bette by her side.

      I hear the theme from Jaws as the story unfolds around Eric. I think Eric is going to need a bigger boat!

      I love this story…I love that Tina is assuming some of the responsibility for their breakup. And she is making the effort to make her relationship with Bette a stronger and more solid relationship for the future. This is what it takes to heal the wounds of the past and to build a strong foundation for the future. This is what provides the real intimacy between these two. I love how they are being so dependent on each other to get themselves through the rough spots of their lives. Now just work together to do Eric in and they can celebrate a victory.

      Love, love, love this story….can’t wait for more.

      • Martha3128!
        Way to speak the emotions of my heart and soul!!!

        Oh BK what gr8 JOY to read the chapters of your louscious Tibette tales.

        For me, you have filled in the thoughts and actions of this couple UNlike ANY Author on this fab website barr none.

        Especially when it comes to vividly constructing the past of Tina which the writers of TLW didn’t reveal.

        Oh how I love what Lara has done for her Boss, her friend, for Tibette.

        I figure BK has to torture us for perhaps two more chptrs until the “gladiator games” begin and the official “whoop ass” on Eric will commence.

        Gosh I hope Tina had audio & video strategically placed to capture Eric’s actions. What’s more, inappropriate workplace texts & emails hopefully store for hard copy printing.

        • DT, gladiator games – I like that term. My money is on Bette Porter every damn day. That can of whoop ass is bursting to get opened, Once Eric is gone, I will have to find a new antagonist, any ideas??

          • Tina will have her free-of-malice way of dealing w\boy Eric, but I’m sorta hoping for the Bette of old to lay into him with a proper “cussin”!!

            Let me dwell on upcoming “antagonists”. Sure its in me to come up with some

    2. Yes, cheers for Lara. I understand her reasoning to send this information to Bette as Tina won’t check her mail while ill. And yes, I love Bette’s decision to go to Chicago as well.
      But please, please, please tell Tina what Lara wrote and did! It’s not breaking Lara’s confidence, Tina has to know. Not the same mistake again. Didn’t Bette just apologize a second ago for making decisions for Tina without even telling her? And in the blink of an eye she’s making decisions for her wife again?! Didn’t Tina just say that in the evening she will discuss with her what to do about Eric and Aaron? Gosh, Bette is worse than a little child who won’t listen to its parents.

      That aside, Eric is an ass. I really wonder about his agenda. Late revenge and trying to discredit Tina? Simply being a male full of himself and expecting Tina to go back to him with flying colours? I wished that Bette and Tina (maybe also with Lara’s help) would come up with a cunning plan to turn the tables on Eric.

      Thanks for another brilliant chpater, BK. Still loving your bathroom scenes, the tenderness and closeness, Bette being able to show her fears, Tina being reflective on her former pregnant-self.

      Can’t wait for the next part!

      • Thank you Kiwi…
        Not sure why my characters always seem to end up in the tub. I personally prefer a hot shower but my story seems to take them there. Eric is all the things you describe. I think the closest real life person would be Matt Lauer maybe? Slimy, full of himself and utterly contemptible. Once his crimes come to light, Matt had nothing to say.
        Thank you for your comments and reading, glad you like the story

      • Wow. Hadn’t thought about Bette possibly getting sideways with Tina because she asked Lara to book her a flight to Chicago.

        Seems like previous chapters suggested that Tina knew Bette would join her in Chicago at some point; but just not on the 1st day perhaps???

        I’ll go back read Lara’s email again

    3. What a asshole, what is Eric thinking, hoping he can seduce Tina in bed with him?!

      I am glad that Lara send a email to Bette and that Bette is going to go to Chicago and i hope she will give Eric a ass wooping he will never forget.

      The bad scene was so incredible good and sweet.

      Looking forward to the next chapter!

    4. Thanks for the post which, as usual, I enjoyed tremendously.

      Please let Bette tell Tina about Lara’s e-mail and that she will be going to Chicargo

      Not able to watch the new show here in UK so only pick up what’s on Social Media but have the same hope that TK will be entering the Story.
