Something so right – chapter 49
“Carol says “
Bette held up her finger “ If you don’t like me – then fine. That I can accept but not if you are condemning me because of what someone else has told you – someone who hasn’t even met me. That is something really hard. I love Tina – I just adore her and would do anything to make her happy. The least that I deserve is the chance to show you that I love Tina “
“Do you remember Brenda ?”
Bette took a deep breathe
“No – the name doesn’t ring a bell with me “
“You don’t even remember the women you sleep with ?”
Bette frowned
“For the most part – yes I do “
“But there has been so many of them ?” Sarah sneered
Bette had been trying to bite her tongue but the remark infuriated her. She stood up
“Obviously this is a waste of time. Fact Mrs Kennard – I worship Tina- there is nothing that I wouldn’t do for her. I love her and I know that she loves me and I know that what we share – what we have going for our relationship is something that is just mind blowing “
Sarah stood up “That may be true but you do not impress me as Tina’s partner “
“It must be nice to have your view of the world “
“What did you say ?”
“I said that it must be nice to have your high morals. I am sorry that I do not measure up to your standards but that doesn’t strike me as being easy. Tina knows all about my past – Tina knows totally and utterly what she was getting into. Shall I tell you how I met your daughter ?”
“In a club – that’s what Tina said “
“Yeah – in a club. I met her in a club and I picked her up. I could have had any woman I wanted but I saw Tina and I wanted her from the very second I saw her. I looked at her and I knew that I had to have her. I took her back to her apartment. Tina had never kissed a woman- she was terrified and she asked me to go. “
Sarah was silent
“Now you have a low opinion of me but I would never have taken advantage of her. She got upset and I could see that she was scared. But I still liked her so much – we talked and I left her after telling her that I really liked her and I did understand why she was so nervous. The next day I asked her out – I asked her to be my date. And for four weeks that was what I did. We dated in the most old fashioned way possible. We met for lunch and dinner – we took long walks on the beach – we got to know one another and we fell in love. I fell hook, line and sinker for Tina. I fell in love for her before I kissed her. That was the something – that was point that I knew that she was the only woman for me. Just because I am a lesbian doesn’t mean that I cannot be gallant and old fashioned and that was what was so wonderful. We took our time and Tina was the one that instigated any advance in our relationship. I love her – that may not mean anything to you but if you speak to any of my friends they will tell you just how much I have change. Now you can hate me and loathe me and think that I am a bad person but I am a fact of life Mrs Kennard. I am not going to walk away from your daughter. I couldn’t – she’s my soul mate. You had better get used to me because I am never going to stop loving Tina and stop making her the centre of my whole world “

Well, Tina’s mother needs to listen and watch those two in action. Maybe Mom has had a lesbian relationship in her past and was left with the man instead. That could be the entire reason she dislikes Bette and not because of what Carol said. After all, they were hippies, Woodstock devotees and from the free love, “Make love, not war” generation. There is more to what Tina’s mother is saying than meets the eye. Wonder what her problem with Bette really is? Can hardly wait for the revelation in future chapters. This chapter was really great AllyE. Post when you can.
First, let me say if you iron pillowcases, something is seriously wrong with you!! Second, I really love this story. I’ve been waiting on the drama to surface, and it did in the form of Tina’s mom. Love how Bette stood up to her!!! PPS

Life is to short to iron pillow cases. There are more fun things to do…..
Why iron pillowcases? You are just going to sleep on them. Crazy! I love this chapter. I’m so glad Bette got a chance to say a few words to Sarah. People change Sarah. Get off your high horse and give Bette a chance.
wonderful story,wonderful chapter, the story is getting better n better. I only iron my own pillowcase:)
count me in the wrinkled pillowcase club.as for the chapter, it was great. Bette is gallant and this chapter shows it yet again.
Wonderful chapter. Most bed linens are polyester or wrinkle free cotton. Just dry and shake out. But I have a friend that LOVES to iron and so she irons blouses that are no-iron. She just loves that crisp look. Each to her own. And if it makes her happy, so be it. Better than excessive gambling, drinking etc.
Way to go bette! Tina’s mom seemed like she had already made up her mind about Bette before she even met her. I hope this has given her some food for thought. PPS
Oh and about the pillow case thing I think People who iron them are a little nutty. I had a friend God love her who not only ironed the pillow cases, but the sheets also.
iron pillow cases, why????? Is she Martha Stewart????
Bette’s reputation is one that many mothers might worry about – mother’s don’t usually feel good about partners who sleep with many many women- that too is a fact of life that Bette has to confront IMO. But what she had to say was well said and the fact that she didn’t just storm off shows how much she adores Tina and will do all she can to win over her family. Regarding pillow cases- I only iron what I must but I think my vote would be to each her own, as long as she’s not making you iron them.
way to much time on your hands if your ironing pillow cases!!! thx
I like my pillowcases ironed :)Bette showcased why it so easy to fall for her 100x over.
Sarah still needs to take the stick out of her ass and stick some bud in her bong! I told you a few days ago that I was raised by wolves, so not only was ironing pillow cases foreign, so were pillow cases. Even after I left the pack and started sleeping in beds I have never in my life ironed a pillow case. In fact I avoid ironing all things as much as possible. BTW, the eastern diamondback IS found in North Carolina, and as they are walking around in their shirtsleaves, I would expect the snakes would find it warm enough to be out and active (sort of like Bette in the old days!), so the city girl and everyone else should be just a little cautious walking in the woods.
I’m crazy,crazy,crazy.My poor boys worn crease B/jeans,Iron shirts and so did my husband even to undershirts. I love to smell the clean smell of the pillow cases and the crisp feel of it on my face. Love how Bette told Tina Mom about the courtship of Bette and Tina. How she love her and so in love wth her. Tinas moms doesn’t realize how lucky both B&T are to have that love soul-mates. Maybe Tinas Mom has a good gentle loving kind man but not her soul-mate thanks
I am loving this story. The ironing of the pillowcases is really a small thing in the grand scale of life. If that is someone’s worst foible, they’re a gem!
I wonder if this Brenda really slept with Bette. It sounds like something maybe Shane would say if someone is over persueing her. I love how Bette just finally laid it out for Sarah. “I am here to stay, with or without your approval. I try to iron as least as possible because I was raised in an “Ironing household”. one of my grandmothers use to iron very thing except soaks, but she used to work in a professional laundry. Get over the pillow cases, life is too short.
O.K. *blushing slightly*, I used to iron pillowcases and my socks, but then I got a life. This was a really good update Ally. I enjoyed Bette taking on Mama Kennard. Bette will make her come around eventually….who could resist that Porter charm!ventually
To answer your question…defifinetly not to the ironing of pillow cases? That’s just crazy! Who in their right mind wants to do more ironing than necessary? Certainly not me:) and you go Bette! Can’t wait to see what the aftermath is going to be after that conversation! PPS
Wooh…ironing pillow case? Next will be the PJ’s..then curtain, cushion case and the list goes on..This is really geting out of hand! I’m with u on this Ally. Is Brenda the girl who kept calling Bette at the start of the story? Needs to re-read it again. Thanks for sharing. Been missing L&P.
Go Bette!!! I’m glad she didn’t back down. Something tells me this isn’t over yet. Great chapter!! pps… Oh…btw…my granma used to iron pillow cases. That went out about 20 years ago. :)
This Brenda chic sounds shady, you can say alot about Bette sleeping around but she isn’t the type to low blow a woman like that. Sarah really does have a long way to go before she is going to make up for the damage she is causing with Bette and Tina. Bette is so sweet and adoring with Tina. I am glad that she told Sarah about how they met and got together.
wow a powerful way to explain to the mom the depth of her feelings, I loved this chapter, I wish she could how much they love each other, I know that the woman have her doubts and she thinks that this sis just a phase and it will go away after a while, but she have to give her daughter more credit than that. Thanks Ally, you are amazing.Post soonLove
Love your writing. As for the pillowcase thing, I don’t iron my own, but the people I work for love the way they look ironed. Thank you for giving of yourself for your fans.
whoa!!!! way 2 go bette…she doesn’t know how to back off…where to now…can they put this aside and enjoy Thanksgiving? Iron pillow cases? yes indeed if they need ironing. I buy the no need to iron type mostly. PPS.
first off…NEVER would iron a pillow case!!! sorry to those who do. it’s hard enough to iron my shirts!!! lmao…next: i am glad Bette stood up to mrs high and mighty! i mean come on, Carol said Carol said Carol said!!!!! she needs to be her own judge of character… i loved Bette’s honesty. she told the truth. didn’t sugar coat it.. just facts. good one ally…pps ;-)
really sur[rised that tina’s mom is bases her decision based on heresay, who know what was really said and was there really a brenda? go for bette to telling tina mom how they met, now if theat does not show mom how much tina and bette love then she is missing a few brain cells… nice to see tina and will talking about college, besides why is tina’s mom so reluctant to make the farm better? for someone is suppose to be so open she is very stubborn, there has to be some hidden story to mom’s craziness? awesome update… can bette go horse ridding,lol.. :)PPS
I love how Bette defends their love. Mayby Tina’s mother will comprehend soon that Bette’s is not a disaster.
Woah. I’m glad Bette explained to her their courtship. Bette always treated Tina with respect, adoration, and kindness.. and really, what more can a parent want. Plus, Tina said her parents had an open relationship.. and in one chapter it seemed like she took drugs while pregnant. Doesn’t sound like the type who can throw stones. Also, I was rereading..and I hope Dana comes back into the friend circle. She is a hundred times better than know it all Helena.
I would have loved to see Bette and that chicken! Hilarious! Amazing as usual. Thanks for sharing your gift with us.
Wow Bette was awesome, go Bette!
