    N/A

     

    Having completed all that she wished to get done, she simply stood in the living room, looking around to be sure that she had missed nothing.

     

    It was at that time that she heard a soft knock on the front door. 

     

    Her heart immediately jumped in her throat as it began to beat a mile a minute.  Wiping the palms of her hands on her jeans, she slowly walked towards the door to open it.

     

    Taking a deep breath, she reached for the ***** and swung the door open.  There, standing under the front porch light, was the woman that she had not been able to take her mind off of for the last seven months.

     

    “Hi” said Bette.

     

    “Hey” smiled Tina as she just stood there and looked at Bette, taking all of her in.

     

    “Uh” said Bette.  “Should I stay here or do you want me to come in?”

     

    “Oh God” giggled Tina as she moved to the side.  “I’m sorry, of course, come in.”

     

    “Thanks” smiled Bette as she walked past her into the house.

     

    Closing the door behind her, Tina turned to see Bette just standing there, not really sure what to do.

     

    “Here you go” she awkwardly said as she offered the bottle of wine that she had brought in with her.

     

    “Thanks” said Tina as she reached for it, turning the bottle so that she could read the label.

     

    “Wow” she exclaimed after reading it.  “William Harrison, huh?” she smiled in a teasing manner.

     

    “I had a couple of bottles hanging around and well, remembered that you liked it and, ah, so here it is” she said as she almost shyly looked towards the ground.

     

    Taking a step closer to Bette, Tina said, “Seems to me that I remember having to basically beg you to open one of these bottles whenever I thought that we should have one.”

     

    “Really?” smiled Bette as she looked up at Tina.  “I don’t remember that at all.”

     

    “Nice selective memory” she teased as she stood right in front of Bette.  Handing the bottle back to her, she said, “I suppose you remember how to open it though?”

    3. ok i want more and more..cant get enough of that story…Bette is really hard with Tina she say things to hurt i hope Tina be brave and dont ever think on given up on them..cant wait for more of that dinner..thanks Skip..amazing as always :o)

    8. So, I’ll have to spend the rest of my weekend with my heart ripped from my chest, crushed and bleeding, tossed into the bushes of a southern California patio garden. Thanks, Skipton you’re a peach…(hugs)

    12. Bette figures if she hurts Tina that she’ll give up…but she hasn’t broken Tina’s resolve. Tina just needs to keep focus on the goal — she already knows how Bette is going to try to throw her off. Funny, they know each other so well…yet it’s harder for them to even speak to one another. Each anticipates the other. Please continue.

    13. I for one DO NOT have a probably reading 20 pages of this story, so whatever you have please bring it. I love the dialogue. You can feel the emotions, it’s like your right there.

    14. Skip,You always have the ability to move me through your words and powerful imagery. Your dialogue is always on point w/the characters and so much more meaningful than the show. I so want to read more.

    15. great beginning for them, i think tina, the gardener can make the garden (bette’s heart) look beautiful and in love again…i hope their journey back together won’t be too long and painful

    16. Such dialogue – such tension – such a writer. I think you are getting better with each chapter and you were damn good to start with. Thanks for the pleasure of this story.

    20. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this great chapter. I’m glad to see that you seem to have found a nice rythm of writing.And BTW, 20 pages would be quite a treat!But as usual, we’ll be very patient and follow your lead.

    21. Tks for 3…Now if you would like a poll…3 vs 20…I’m sure we’d win and you would be posting 20…so pls we don’t mind really post it all….tks!!!

    23. thank you skip for a great story -one would have to say that Bette was devastated by Tina’s flight and yet she hasn’t cut her off completely but she sure isn’t making it easy for Tina. Perserve Tina.

    24. I love the long & drawn out tortured dance these two do ( or conversation if you really want to call it that!) Do please write MORE! & no need to hurry the story along – I’ll eat up all the angst you care to write – LOVE IT!

    27. Skip 20 pages I would love, In fact I think that you should write a book I won’t be able to put it down. I don’t understand how people are putting Bette down, I think Tina is lucky that she is talking to her, although I do want them to Kiss and make up, great chapter as always

    31. I love your style, your stories, can’t wait to read anything you want to write. thanks for always delivering such quality. Your stories take me away from this bleak cold winter in waiting.

    32. Oh, I feel for Bette and for Tina to still persevere in her hopes of winning Bette back. It will be a long and painful journey indeed. Love this line from Bette: “Whether or not you have to endure the death of the beauty that it once was, just to watch it fade away in front of your eyes, dying a slow death from the lack of touch that had once made it so beautiful.” It pretty much sums up her feelings and her fears if she lets Tina in and there’s a chance she’ll have to go through that again. **Big Sigh** I see that no one’s complaining about the 20 pages. That would really be a treat and a great X’mas gift, Skip. Thanks again.

    37. skip….oh my gawd! Excellent writing…I have absolutely NO problems reading 20 or 200 pages of your writing. Thank you for this chapter, and another plea here for part 2 to be posted very soon. It looks like a long road ahead for B&T but I am so invested in this journey of theirs. Santa, please let Skipton write for TLW, or the TLW spin off!

    38. I just read all of your chapters tonight and I LOVE it! It’s like all the other posters are saying, it’s sad, heartwrenching, lovely, funny, and every other emotion rolled into one. Please continue!!!

    40. Skip this is not like you, your not a tease. So why begin now I have already said that I know it would be a pleasure to read your work every single day. So lets start posting those pages already. As for the story even though there is so much angst between them its still the most intense feeling ever.

    46. I think it was a great way to have Bette start talking about how she felt when Tina left, b/c they weren’t just talking about plants. I’d take twenty pages anyday. Thanks for your writing.
