“So” said Tina. “I’m surprised to see you here” she said with a small smile on her face.
“So am I” she muttered under her breath.
“What?” asked Tina.
“Nothing” said
“I know, Al. It’s been a while.”
Looking down at the bottle in her hands,
“Did Shane tell you that I was here?” asked Tina.
“No” said
“Then how did you-” asked Tina.
“Bette told me” she answered.
“Oh” said Tina, suddenly fascinated with the label wrapped around her own bottle.
“Well, thank you for coming by” she said as she finally looked up.
“Look Tina. I think that I should tell you something” said
“Ok” said Tina, giving
“This was Bette’s idea.”
“What was Bette’s idea?” she asked, thoroughly confused.
“My coming by here.”
“Ok” she said but still not understanding.
Placing the bottle on the table in front of her,
Tina simply sat there, not saying a word.
“I had no intention of coming by here, but Bette didn’t want you to feel abandoned by your friends. Kinda ironic wouldn’t you say?”
Tina just looked at her, not answering the question. From no where, she began to feel tears forming in her eyes. She did everything in her power to stop them from falling.
“Look
“And who’s choice was that?” asked
“Choice?” repeated Tina. “You think that I left LA, all of my friends and the only woman, the only person that I have ever truly loved, by choice? Is that what you think?” she asked, voice nearing a fevered pitch.
“What else am I supposed to think, Tina?” she asked, anger calming as she saw the reaction that she had caused Tina by her words.
Knowing that there was no way for
Smiling for the first time since she had arrived,
Seeing the smile on Alice’s face caused a similar reaction on her own.
“How have you been?” asked Tina.
“Ok I guess. Still waiting for my Edward R. Murrow and for the love of my life to come and claim me. Aside from that? Same ol’ same ol’.
Tina chuckled at
“It’s the little things in life that keep us going” she chuckled in return.
After a minute of silence,
“You really want me to answer that?” asked Tina, picking up her water to take a sip.
“I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t want to know” she said.
It may have been Bette’s request that had gotten her here, but now that she was here, she found herself really wanting to know what had been going on in Tina’s life. She realized in just the short time that she had been here, how much she had missed her friend. She was still pissed that Tina had left the way that she had, but as she had suspected last night, there was more to her disappearance than just the need for an escape.
“Well, where to begin?” Tina said as she kicked her shoes off and placed her feet on the table in front of her.
“How much time do you have?” asked Tina.
“As much as you need” said

Skip, you always leave me wanting more. However, this time that is not the case. This time you have left me wanting MORE, MORE, MORE!!!!! Thanks!
If only I were Alice. I would risk more alcohol and ply Tina with her fair share hoping she’ll give me all the details. Thanks for writing.
wonderful perspective on Bette and Alice – now what’s the skinny on Tina don’t make us wait too long – it’s too intriquing. As always your writing is so so fine.
I love your version of Bette! I’m glad that she’s learned a few things over the years. Al’s a good friend. Bette and Tina are lucky to have her around. Great chapter, skip! Definitely worth the wait. :)
skippy, just dont playing us, k. bette sooo loves her some tina still. sending over al spot on. al will be the messenger that she was sent to be for bette. thanks. and soon please.
Okay, I’m getting a warm fuzzy since one Bette Porter has such a big heart. I’m still wary of Tina though. Enjoyed the dialogue between Alice & Bette. Most endearing. Great chapter Skip!
Four-legged friends notwithstanding, please post again soon. Need to see what you have up your sleeve for your devoted readers!
Thanks so much for this update. I loved the exchange between Alice and Bette, and you captured the electric tension between Alice and Tina, and their subsequent ease with each other so very well. This is a fabulous story–can’t wait to see where you take us with it.
Boones Farm Select Oh the memory of a many of Boones Farm from my youth, I was laughing hard at the at one. Wonderful pace and sentiment in this one. Thanks so much for the story.
I have tonnes of time for this story.
Wow that was great and Bette does have a big heart for her to understand what it felt like to be alone and to know how hard that would be for Tina..Can’t wait to find out what kept Tina away..Please post soon and Good Luck with your Katrina survivor..You have a big heart also.
Two great scenes between friends make this an excellent chapter. Bette has a surprising amount of empathy for Tina. I, too, am waiting to see how Tina will explain herself and how you will write it all in your superlative way. Thanks so much! Good luck with your new pet.
Another wonderful chapter Skip. The dialogue in both scenes was perfect. Its nice to see that Bette still wants Tina to have support, even after she left her and went to NY.
I glad that Bette asked Alice to go see Tina she has been there and knows how it feels. If yow need a friend,guess Alice and Shane would be it. Guess you will tell us why she left. thanks
Tina has a ton of fences to mend, and I can’t wait to hear what she’s been up to.
It was neat of you and your family to open your home to a pet left homeless by the hurricane. We all know that you and your inspiration have biggie sized talents, nice to know you have biggie sized hearts to match.
I really enjoy your storiesand went back and read all of your material from the beginning in the last few days and enjoyed it so much!!!!
addict for life skip!!
hey skip thanks for posting. love this story. its good to see bette still looking after tina and encourageing alice to go see her. alice is a true friend
Skipton,
Another wondrous addition to this superb story.
It is comforting to see that the support system is still in place for all of the gals.
Even though they have all been through tough times the love, understanding and generosity is constant. These things are the measure of true friendship and bonding.
It may be years since they last saw each other; the separation was sudden but the old habits like a pair of comfy slippers they just slip on and you soon forget you are wearing any.
This has been poignantly crafted in this brilliant installment. It is a testament to the high quality and standard of your writing that so many fans are devoted to this fabulous fan fiction.
These are intense and emotive times but through persistence and persuasion the rewards of reconnection are worth all of the short term turmoil and upheaval.
I will be constant in my desire to follow this tale and will be here waiting and watching.
Your Loyal Fan
Another wonderful chapter, wish you could post every hour on the hour, as this is one of my favourites A girl can dream though.
is great that Alice could be there for Tina. been waitin for this update..hope the next one will be posted soon!
