    Say Nothing Chapter 18

     

    Tuesday, “James, I’m on my way to the airport and then home. Is everything ready?” Bette is speaking loudly from her office.

     

    “Yes ma’am” Slightly louder from his office.

     

    “By noon tomorrow, we should have a very good idea what the impact of this exhibit is going to be. The magazine hits the newsstands by 10:00. Alice goes on the air at 10:00. Our announcement on the web goes up at 11:00.” Bette was recounting the timed events.

     

    “I have the small office behind mine set up for Giselle. There are two phones so that Tina can work from there too if she would like.” James’s no longer needed to shout as he had met his boss in the hall half way between their offices.

     

    “The office by yours. What was wrong with the larger office on the other side of mine?” Bette smiled a knowing smile at her assistant.

     

    “Well  …  I just thought  …..  you know, because we will need to be in contact with each other.” James was blushing. He thought it would be nice for Giselle to be close.

     

    With a wave of her hand. “I’m out. Call me if you need me.” Bette was on her way to pick up Tina and Giselle.

     

    Bette wheeled her car into the airport short term parking lot and quickly made her way to baggage claim where they had decided to meet. If the flight was on time, it should be on the ground. The butterflies in Bette’s stomach were a new feeling. Just thinking about Tina’s return made their wings flutter and her stomach anxious. To her left, Bette could see a steady stream of people coming down the escalator. She scanned the faces one after the next until the hazel eyes of the blonde she waited for, met hers. The soft smile that graced the blonde’s face was amazing. She turned slightly to Giselle who was standing beside her, Tina pointed Bette out. A smile came to Giselle’s face too. Bette stood still in her place. Her heart beat increasing, the butterfly wings fluttering, her mouth dry. what were these feelings? Tina had dressed comfortably for her flight, Her jeans fashionably well fit and her top was a fit, rib knit pullover that accentuated her beautiful curves. Bette stood statuesque over her as their bodies met. Tina’s comfortable shoes would lend her no height. There was no one in the world but them. Tina nuzzled her face in Bette’s neck and her arms wrapped the brunette tightly to her.

    1. Why was Bette busy Saturday evening? Was she with Leslie? Bette had better behaved herself! Surely Bette realizes what she has with Tina and isn’t dumb enough to screw it up. After all they agreed to be exclusive.

    2. THUDDY THUD THUD! Seriously, I am a puddle on the chair. Shhhhh, don’t tell anyone…I’m a complete, hopeless romantic. Have I told you lately that I love this story?

    3. I’m with BnTPorter, I too wonder what Bette did on Saturday….other than that, it looks like Tina is totally in love and Bette, is slowly getting there…can’t wait for Monday.

    4. I just melted when Bette was scanning the baggage area for Tina…when their eyes met…it was like I was there. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful story!

    5. My God, I love this story and this could be a movie with our girls and what a movie it would be. Just think of the lovliness of Paris, the beautiful countryside, and the restaurant that overlooks the artist’s colony. You painted a very vivid picture of the restaurant and the artist’s colony with your words. In my mind’s eye, I could just see the houses or workshops of the artists, all painted different colors. I wish there was a visual painting of “Say Nothing,” for us to see. Have a wonderful weekend with your family. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Post when you can.

    6. Forgot something. Who is Leslie, hope she is not an old girlfriend that is still interested. And why was Bette so busy on a Sat. night and with whom? Don’t let Bette pass us this chance for happiness with the greatest love she will ever have. Post when you can.

    7. That Saturday night is going to worry me until my mind is (hopefully!) put at rest… Bette did something hopelessly romantic for Tina during that time, right? That she’s just been waiting for Tina’s return to reveal, right? Right?!? Aside from that, I’m so into this story… I look forward to every chapter. Enjoy the weekend, djrk, and thanks for posting. Cheers

    8. just when i feel jaded, this story brings out the hopeless romantic in me. as always, i am eagerly anticipating the next chapter. enjoy your time with you family this weekend!

    9. First (well, ok second because I already posted once) I just want to say that I love this story so very much. I am however wondering (and others please speak up with this question) if Tina is over stepping by not asking Bette if she can paint in her gallery – that may cause some problems if/when some of Bette’s “friends” visit – wouldn’t Tina be more comfortable painting at Bette’s house in her garden? Don’t know..but this I do know, I can’t wait to see how you have it play out.

    10. Miss smarty pants reporting in…lol… i do hope you read the PM i sent you… anyway… you know i love this story… i had a few chapters to catch up on… and i loved that… now whats wrong with bette… she is also falling in love and to me it looks like she is fighting it… i hope not… and tina is willing to move to be with bette… hey she can paint any where… so bette wake up… so you want details… well i am writing as we speak… i’ll let you know when i post it… later…PPS
