They continued until noon when Tina signaled the end of the meeting so she could bring Bette lunch and begin helping her there.
She arrived at the Gallery to find a flurry of activity at the back of the showroom and Bette with her hands on her hips cussing up a storm.
James was standing nearby, his phone in his hand and a frown on his face. Tina walked up to stand next to her tempestuous wife and placed one hand on the small of Bette’s back just under her suit coat, and her other hand on Bette’s arm to soothe her. She felt her lover take a deep breath as she turned to look at her. She looks tired, Tina thought. Tired and stressed.
“What is it?” she asked quietly, winking at James.
“That fucking electrician did not add the extension to the back wall, and he is in Florida on vacation. Now we are having to redesign that entire display unless James here can find a master electrician who can come right fucking now. Right Fucking Now James!!” Bette emphasized, glaring at James.
“Ok. What else?”
“The caterer called, wanted to know if we can do a different appetizer but I need to look at the menu, the valet needs to be confirmed, the flowers are coming in two hours and the fucking ice maker in the kitchen is broken…” she took a breath…
“Hand me the list…”
“Tee…”
“I know there’s a list. There is always a list Hon”
Bette narrowed her eyes.
“Hand it over, Bette” Tina gestured with her fingers, her eyes locked on her wife. Bette knew that look, that look meant business.
James took a step back.
Several seconds passed before Bette relented, sighing as she reached in her coat pocket and handed the list to Tina, giving James a death stare for no other reason than he was there.
Tina put the list in her pocket and took Bette by both hands, facing her wife. She ran her thumbs along the back of her wife’s hands, warm, calming. She spoke softly, making Bette lean in so she could hear her.
“I will handle these things, ok? Well, James and I will. You go have lunch and check your emails Baby. I sent you one this morning that I know you would have responded to, which tells me you haven’t a chance to sit down yet.”

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.
