Riders Ch.11
“Oh uhm… Tina I well I thought that…that maybe you would uhm…want to sleep in so I thought… maybe if I could, well let you sleep … you might feel better I uhm… well all I really wanted to do was help.”
Oh god why couldn’t I just form a sentence? Why was it all so hard when I tried to talk to her? Oh crap and now I am going to cry.
—————————————–Alice—————————————–
I saw the quiver in Bette’s lip as she tried to explain to Tina and knew it was time to step in. Ever since we had been kids Bette had struggled socially, any pressure situation and she became even more awkward. Sometimes Bette just needed a translator to help her along. Luckily years of experience made me an expert and I dragged Dana with me to the aid of my beautifully innocent and embarrassed friend.
“Tina I think what Bette means is that she though that since she was up it would be nice for you to have a lay in as we all know you struggle to get to sleep sometimes and we all had a stressful day yesterday.”
I think every one in a ten-mile radius felt the rush of air as Bette let out the breath she was holding and wiped furiously at the few tears that had escaped her eyes. She was nodding her head in agreement with what I had said but she never took her eyes of a slightly less cross looking Tina. As I continued to run interference with a little help from Dana I took the time to really look at Tina and it too me a while to see it but the look that had been on Tina’s face was not anger, it was fear. Something had spooked her bad and I had a feeling that a still stuttering Bette had more than a little to do with it.
————————————-Dana—————————————-
I had seen the look of fear in Tina’s eyes too, but as I continued to watch my old friend I saw something else, something that I had never seen in all the years I had known her. I saw love and adoration like it was fighting to get out.

What a terrific surprise to see another “Riders” chapter posted! I was so disappointed because I thought you had given up! Glad to see you are back at it, and hope you will post again soon. I’d love to see more of the Bette/Tina personality dynamic you were showing before with Tina as the worldly wise and Bette standing up to her a little. I still have to ask the same question: Who won the bet??? Thanks for continuing!
