Alice raised an eyebrow “Do I look like I’m kidding?”
“But how do you expect a beautiful young woman like Bette to fall in love with an old bat like me?”
“Well that’s for you to find out…

An hour to go before Christmas Eve and the party was already in full swing, the spacious living room was adorned with colorful Christmas decorations and a merry Christmas song was playing in the air. Everyone was having a good time including Bette who was standing in one corner chatting with Michelle and her cousins who were about their age. Her eyes scanned the entire room and caught the sight of the old woman whom she had a nice walk earlier that morning. Tina was sitting in a round table with her other daughter Nancy and some grandkids.
As she took a sip on her drinks she noticed how beautiful Tina was wearing a light green dress that accentuated her hazel eyes and she thought she must have been a knockout beauty in her early years.
Good thing Tina wasn’t looking at Bette because she could have seen the frown registered on the brunette’s face when Bette saw the necklace that Tina was wearing.
‘What’s with this town that everything seemed so familiar to me?’ Bette asked herself quietly. All of a sudden as if an electric shock went thru her when a memory flashed before her eyes
“I’m not sure if we’ll see each other again but I want you to have this…”
Then the memory faded out. She looked at Tina again who was laughing at her grandkid’s crazy antics; Bette shook her head in confusion
‘Tina’s necklace was in my dream…’ she jumped when she felt a hand on her shoulder
“Hey Bette are you ok?” Michelle asked worriedly as she looked at her friend whose face had turned white
“Uhmm I think I’m having a headache”
“I’ll get you some aspirin”
“No no just stay here I have some in my room I’ll go for a minute and get it” before she leave she gave another glance at Tina’s table but she’s no longer there

Tina was sitting comfortably in one table with her daughter and grandkids enjoying the party. She smiled as she saw how her entire family enjoyed themselves; some were eating others especially the kids were dancing to the sound of the Christmas song and as Tina looked at them she thought how lucky she was to have them and having reached her age.

Hi ladies! I know this is late but still I want to greet you all Belated Merry Christmas! I know some of you are waiting for a new chapter of Lover in the Dark, but forgive me I’ve been busy due to the holidays and can’t bring myself to write a new chapter. Please don’t think that I’ve forgotten you all so Instead I would like to repost an old Christmas story that I wrote 3 years ago and I guess not everyone was able to read it the first time so I want to post it again if that’s alright(; I was also inspired by my awesome fellow TiBette fan fiction writers and friends tibettenation1, Pie_Fair and robynTibetter so I thought why not add entertainment to all of you amazing ladies who haven’t read this (; BTW This is a 3- part short story and I also did little revisions and corrections as you know English is not my native language so I hope you enjoy even for the second time around and if you still see some mistakes just kindly disregard it (;
By the way just want to say the amazing and talented Pie_Fair has made me a sexy and i mean a sexy cover for Lover in the Dark and will show that once the new chapter is complete so please watch out for that.
Of course I remember this story, as the song says, it is unforgettable!
I loved it the first time I read it. Why wouldn’t I? A magical story of a 70 year old Tina with a beautiful young Bette and intertwined with the wonderful ‘Unforgettable’ song that I remember so well from my late teenage years. I loved reading it even more this Second Time Around, Thank You.
A belated Happy Christmas, phacey and a wish for a Healthy and Peaceful New year. I look forward to the next Chapter of Lover in the Dark not only for your storytelling but, now, for Pie’s sexy cover art!
Aww yeess this story that had me crying for days…i was so happy when they found each other after so long…and a grandma Tina you had to love it. How come this story has been posted a second and yet it just as beautiful, fantastic, amazing, awesome as before

I do remember this story – but the ending was a little different – no? ! Hmmmm still great after all these years! ty
Hey hey! Thanks for the shoutout!
Really like the reminisce!
I totally understand, we all have other things to do in life so it’s difficult to keep posting on a regular basis. But don’t worry my friend, we’re patient…although we might not seem to be but we are.
Have a happy holiday and keep up the amazing work!
That was awesome and a little change there and is good to read this story again, love it, thanks my friend and Merry Christmas to you!
Beautiful story the second time reading it! I went back and read all your work this summer. When you have the time and energy to finish Lover in the Dark – we will be waiting patiently…well maybe not too patient! Thank you, my friend!
Ditto with mamadoc this story is truly amazing and totally captures my imagination. Thanks for sharing this again sweetie and will be anxiously waiting for new chapter of Lover. Happy holidays my dearest friend!
I’ve read it before but is as good if not better now. Thank you, you are a wonderful writer. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for this gift.
Merry Christmas !!
You are fantastic.
10 Stars.
Phacey it was really a good idea reposting this story. I enjoyed rereading it as much as I enjoyed reading it for the first time. But I like this better… with a quite different ending.
It’s a wonderful magical story. It makes me think that if I have a funny Fairy God Mother like Alice and if she would ask me, “If you will be given a chance to change something in your past will you do it?” then maybe I will consider it… changing something in my past.
By the way, Bette’s bestfriend Michelle, I like her name… it reminds me of a very good friend… someone sooooo dear to me.
Thanks a lot and please keep writing!
Great Story!!!!!!!!
