Reprisal Reprised- Chapter 14
Exhaling, Bette just nodded her head.
“You’re right, Bette. Tina being back in town will have no impact on our relationship” she said sarcastically.
“What do you want me to say, Lee?”
“That she is still happily holed up in
Bette just looked at her, knowing no response was the safest one to give.
Taking a deep breath, Lee turned to Bette and said, “Was Tina there tonight? Is that why you didn’t go to
Sitting up on the sofa, Bette said “I didn’t go for the reasons that I told you and as for whether or not Tina was there, I don’t know. I didn’t ask.”
“But would you assume she was going?” she persisted.
Reaching for her wine, Bette brought the glass to her lips and before taking a sip, simply said, “Probably.”
Taking another deep breath, Lee tried to calm the ever rising agitation that she was feeling.
“Do you have any plans to see her, meet up with her?” she asked, afraid to hear the answer.
“No” said Bette as she leaned back again. “Not yet at least.”
“So, you do plan on seeing her?”
“She wants to talk to me, that much I know.”
“And, what if she wants to get back together with you, Bette? What will you do then?”
Raising a hand to rub her left temple that had started to throb, Bette turned to Lee and trying her best to control her rising anger said, “You know what, Lee? This is not about what Tina wants. I could ***** care less about what she wants and I don’t see that changing in the near future. Will I talk to her though? Probably because as you aptly pointed out, I was married to her and I would still like to know what made her scurry out of our house in the middle of the night, never to return until now” she said, desperate to fight the tears that were threatening.
“And if you can’t handle that Lee then-”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa” said Lee as she moved over to Bette and scooped her up in her arms.
“Don’t even finish that sentence, sweetie.”
All of the tears and emotion that Bette had been holding inside finally came forward as she cried in Lee’s arms, confusion and sadness taking a front seat in her psyche.
“It’s ok, sweetie” whispered Lee into Bette’s ear as she rocked her back and forth. “Come on now, it’s gonna be ok.”
Pulling back a bit, Bette wiped the tears from her face and with a slight smile said, “Crying on your shoulder over my ex-wife, probably not what you had in mind for your Friday night, huh?”
“Not really” said Lee as she gingerly reached over and ran her thumb across Bette’s bottom lip. “But I’m happy to accommodate you in whatever it is that’s needed.”
Reaching over, Bette pulled Lee into a deep kiss that left no doubt as to how the remainder of the evening was going to be spent.
Pulling back, Bette ran her hand up the inside of Lee’s thigh.
“Bedroom?” she whispered.
“No. Right here” said Lee as she pushed Bette back on the sofa and climbed on top of her, eager to have Bette thinking of anything else but Tina.

Oh the drama and the angst! Great chapter!
bette porter dose not rn so stop it!!!!!!!!!!! go and see tina like yesterday post soon!
bye bye Lee ..you will be around so long..lol..B&t need to talk and ask all of the question they have inside their hearts..amazing chapter..cant wait for more thanks :o)
Another great chapter Skip. Love this story and can’t wait for another chapter. please….soon.
Honestly? For a moment I was thinking that when Bette asked “Bedroom?” Lee was going to say “too far”, and send Bette panicking. I just love where you’re taking this.
I didn’t know I was holding my breath until I finished reading this. Skip, how do you do that to me. I don’t know who to feel worse for…Bette or Tina or maybe even Lee, because she will most definetly be a casualty if Tina has her way. Great chapter!
Lee will be on her way soon enough.Thanks Skip.
thanks for making my blood run cold skip. god she can be so stubborn. god the pain. thanks skip. im trusting you, havent steered me wrong yet. be nice. thanks
This story is yummy! I’m a sucker for the fall guy…poor Lee, she seems so nice, too bad she’s going to be the one that gets hurt! I was thinking that Tina was going to go over to Bette’s when she said she wasn’t coming…I sure hope she doesn’t go over now!
such drama…i think it will be better if bette will let lee go, it will be hard on her, and they are not that strong anyway…bette needs to talk to tina first before making any decisions…i hope B&T will be together soon
Smooth as french silk pie! I’m liking Lee. Bette is struggling against the Tina current, but I think she’s gonna go down. When that happens, can I have dibs on Lee?Thanks!
You know what, everybody? There are a legion of decent, perfectly acceptable women who get left in the T&B wake. Lee, Sara (soon not to be of this world), and I’m sure there are many others. Let’s have a lottery, shall we, to see who gets B&T’s leftovers.
Hey Skipton that was so great but I’m just crack me up with techgal hey that was so funny I don’t think I can’t think to have Bette leftover HA HA HA Whoa! OK! hey techgal that was funny Please continue post soon Thanks Skip!!
What can I say? Always a pleasure to read your writing. I look forward to more whenever you’re able to update.
This is the first time that I’m leaving a comment on your posting but I just want to let you know that I love your writing and that I really appreciate what you’ve been sharing with us readers. I haven’t read this chapter yet but I’m working hard on trying to catch up. Now, back to my reading and will leave more comments once I’m all caught up.
Kick Lee to the curb, no offence Lee but our girls belong together. Another awesome chapter Skip, please post soon
hmm bette seems pretty deep in her disliking of tina rite now..lets c where u take them skip
“I just sometimes wonder if I’ll ever be able to make her understand.” Yeah, me too. On another note, Lee’s right, her relationship with Bette will change (is changing…i.e. their conversation & the outpouring of emotion from Bette). It’s good that she recognizes this upfront so she can start preparing herself for, well… so she can start preparing herself period. And Skip, I’ll have you know that I will not ‘skip’ this story even if you don’t honor my request. Okay, the whole Bette backing over T with her car was a bit harsh but I was all riled up after reading that previous chapter. *shakes head in shame* It took me forever to calm down. I even cringed when I saw this post from you. I’ll play fair from now on. Please forgive me. I like Tina. I like a healthy Tina. Repeat 100 times. Your writing is so dynamic yet delicate. What a balance. What an undeniable talent you have. Whew.
Lee and Bette’s relationship has shifted, Lee is so right…Tina has got a hell of a job on her hands to get Bette back, I don’t think Lee is going to give up so easily. Thank you.
i am always bowled over by your incredible talent! your writing is always so satifying no matter the level of angst! Thank you for sharing.
amazing as always……..!!!!!!!!
Apparently I have some catching up to do…13 chapters or so – that’s making me a very happy camper because your work is an absolute pleasure to read. Thanks for writing.
Another chapter very well thought out and well executed. Thank you for writing.
