“Read it and weep… or read it and cheer as the case may be…” she announced, sitting next to Tina and helping herself to her friend’s cup of fruit.
“Oh my God…” Bette exclaimed, showing the headline to Tina…
“Artist or Fraud? Jodie Lerner claims she is the victim of a conspiracy…”
“Who did the work? Jungle clips reveal Lerner may have lied about her work….”
Bette and Tina were silent as each read the articles, stopping from time to time to read each other passages as the story took shape. Alice’s eyes went back and forth between them, happy to have brought news that was surprising to them, especially since this news was big and clearly unknown to them.
She finished Tina’s fruit cup and moved on to Bette’s, waiting eagerly for the chatter that would follow.
“Babe. What does this mean?” Tina asked, looking at Bette and shaking her head.
“It means the art world is turning on her. Listen to this quote: ‘Lerner was front page at the release of the movie and is quoted as saying that she did all the detail work on the set. The movie footage says otherwise…’”
“With the show tomorrow, there will be no doubt that Elena is the real artist…” Tina glanced at her fruit cup and, noticing it was empty, reached for Bette’s, only to find that empty as well. She glared at Alice, who shrugged.
“Who is covering the event?” Alice chipped in, the real motive of her visit suddenly becoming clear.
“Emily from the LA Times and David Brower from Art World…”
“Emily! No fucking way, Bette! I will never hear the end of it… I’m supposed to be your best friend. You have to give me an exclusive something…” Alice reached for Bette’s uneaten half of her sandwich as well, only to have her hand blocked by Tina.
“She needs to eat that; you ate all the fruit. Did you come here to steal our food and beg for first interviews?”
“Bette. A picture. A list… something… top ten reasons Jodie Lerner is a cheat and a hack… something…”
“First tell me about your plan for Chicago. I got a call from my bank today, mysterious charges for airline tickets… I almost suspended it for fraud until they told me the name of one of the passengers…”

Hi BK,
Thank you for keeping our favourite couple Tibette alive!!!
I really want to know the plan on how they are going to catch that bastard Eric! And how Jodi will be exposed as a fraught, she already is the talk in the art world.
What is it what Bette want to tell/share with Tina?
So many questions i want to see answered. I hope you are able to update soon.
You really have me at the edge of my seat with the plan for Chicago. Nicely done, always fading the paragraph or the scene with just a teaser to allude they talk about it and to build up the tension.
Like Bette I’m a little anxious about Tina’s safety.
Loved how Tina turned the tables and managed to help Bette and ease her workload. T + B complement each other so well.
Alice did good to point the right people of the press to Jody’s doings.
Thank you for posting, BK, let the game begin – but grand opening first :-)
Thanks for keeping Tibette alive on these pages. Please continue to do so.
Love this story and waiting to see how Eric, particularly is dealt with.
Thanks for posting, looking forward to next post.

Despite Bette’s doubts, I believe Tina, Alice, Shane, Lara and Tasha with Bette’s help will have a good plan. They will also have some alternatives in the event some part does no work out. All they will need in the end is the phone number to the Chicago PD and our friend Eric will be unemployed. The only thing that will save Eric is if he behaves himself appropriately and that is not likely.
I like that Aaron is getting a little put out with Eric. Tina is producing even though she is at home and Eric is doing nothing.
Jodi is getting her just rewards as evidenced by her own misstatements and misdeeds. When to take credit for work that is not yours, sooner or later it will catch up with you. And the fact that Tina and Bette did not take revenge for the “Core Values” exhibit will not cause them any harm to their reputations and careers.
Great chapter…love the humor and the intimacy. And I love that Bette and Tina are working their relationship in a healthy stable fashion. Even the fact that Bette has asked for some alone time and it is being granted by Tina is a good thing for their relationship. Bette promises to tell Tina what’s on her mind later and I believe she will. Everyone needs a bit of alone time to process things.
Lovely writing…. look forward to more.
