Say Nothing Chapter 9
Bette stepped away from the counter and joined Tina out of the way of the throngs of people. They stood face to face. Tina took Bette’s hand into her own. “I want you to know that I am incredibly excited about the exhibit. I know it will be a success in your capable hands.” Tina’s eyes never moved from the lock they were in with Bette’s. “The last few days have been wonderful. I didn’t plan for this to happen but, I am so, so, grateful that it did. You are a magnificent woman Bette Porter and I will never forget our night together.” With that she took Bette into her arms and held her tight. It was not a romantic embrace but, it was warm and safe and fulfilling.
Bette leaned slightly back away from Tina. “Tina Kennard, you are possibly one of the most amazing women I have ever met. I have so enjoyed our time together. Thank you for a wonderful night. I don’t think that I will forget one moment of the last few days.” Bette leaned back into Tina and kissed her cheek. “I know I will be seeing you again as we get closer to the exhibit and I want you to know that I will be looking forward to that.” Bette kissed the other cheek. They looked at each other for a few seconds with the silence saying more than words could. They gave each other a hug and Bette turned to go to the gate. Tina watched as Bette’s body melded into the crowd of travelers. Bette never looked back.

As the jet landed at LAX, Bette was not sure if she was happy or sad. She had accomplished what no other U.S. gallery had, she would be exhibiting Tina Kennard’s work in her gallery, but, she would not be in that lovely place that Tina Kennard called home.
James had arranged for a car to collect Bette at the airport. The drive to her home was quiet and thought filled. As the car pulled into the drive she looked at her own beautiful home but, was she happy to be there? She put the key into the lock, turning it slowly. The door was gently pushed open with her hand. She walked into the quiet, stillness and was alone with her thoughts. She moved slowly through the living room, down the hall and into her bedroom where she pushed her luggage through the door and up against the wall and taking a few steps backward, she fell across the bed and lay in silence. Looking up at the ceiling her eyes grew heavy from the tiring trip. Before long she was fast asleep.

i don’t know why but I get a warm feeling when I read this story!
Oh, so intriguing. Why did Tina come visit so soon? Will Bette introduce Tina to the girls? PPS.
i love this story… so glad tina came to visit… i have a feeling tina may not be returning to paris.. for a while that is… or just long enough to pack… please post soon…
Forget thank you’s and blah,blah, can we have more. I’m so excited that Tina came and surprised Bette.
OMG!!! I so didn’t expect Tina to be in L.A. that soon but I am so freakin’ happy they are toghether again—and I am not even Bette! LOL. The suspense is killing me. I wish you could post a chapter every day. The update though will tide me over till the next one. I hope. PPS. I’m dying to know what happens next. Love this story!
This Tina is so different from the one we’re used to, yet you’ve made her quite believable.Thanks for the unexpected posting.
i agree with resultsonly… this story does give me a warm feeling inside. don’t worry about the personal notes… we would rather see new chapters sooner :)
i bet tina missed bette like hell!!!!!! yay now tina will be falling in love with bette and will stay in LA forver….i can only hope…
I am totally addicted to your wonderful writing! I love your self-assured, flirty, and oh-so-sexy Tina. I had forgotten that Tina had planned a trip to see Bette. Can’t wait for the next chapter and Bette’s reaction to her visit.
Oh goody, Tina used that ticket, I was waithing for that. I hope Bette fluffed the sheets and made the bed as I believe that Tina will need a place to stay. Thank you, Md
Tina in LA..that was quite a shocker! Now what? Fascinating story!
I think this was an arbitrarily inconsiderate place to leave us – just as Tina was meeting Bette in her gallery. You could have easily gone on for at least 5 or 6 more pages. I know I could have read on for that much more. I was just getting comfortable. Well, thanks.
Aren’t fanfic readers an ungrateful lot?
Turnabout is fair play, and Tina as the dominant character is refreshing. It makes Bette stretch to equal her. Thanks!
This is good!
I think I’m falling in love with this Tina.. .. Done great job as always, Thank you djrk
Oh YAY! I’m so looking forward to what happens now.
Sooo, everything is going according to Tina’s plan, huh? We recall she anticipated her trip, while Bette was still in Paris. We are glad that she did surprise Bette. Now we know that there is some longing on Bette’s side. We wonder if Tina feels the same. Hmmm Can’t wait for your next chappy. As you can see, you always leave us very anxious to read more. We just can’t have enough. Hahaha Hugs and kisses on both your cheeks. Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)
I get so many emotions when i read this! Its so good!! Please dont stop! update asap!!
i love this story.
OMG..this story is just so beautifully written and it is so hard to wait between chapters. pps
This story is so loving and beautiful!!! I so love your B&T!!!! Thank you
O, it’s so nice that they have met once again)As I think we can hope for few chapters where Tina and Bette would be trying to reassure themselves that they dont do relationships=)I have noticed, that Giselle came with Tina, although at first Tina planned to come alone.
awww – what a great chapter – and so very well written! looking forward to b & t`s realisation that they have the hots for each other – they will SOONER or later, right!? :)) thanks for posting this wonderful story.
I thought a phone call, but an appearance is even better
