Stained – Chapter 4 + 5
Chapter 4
“Hi Eric,” Tina said with the most enthusiastic
voice she could manage.
It had
never been one of Eric’s talents to notice when he was not wanted. Tina had
learned to live with that, though. It just meant you couldn’t subtly tell him
to piss off; you had to actually say the words. What made it so annoying was
that Tina had never in her life met anyone with worse timing than Eric. As a
result of that, she had to tell him to just piss off and leave her be at least
two times a week. She loved him, she really did. She had, however passed the
‘I’m so in love with you that I want to spend all my time with you’ phase after
the second week, whereas Eric was still in it after 8 months. He was a great
boyfriend, though. Caring, considerate, sweet, and handsome and he was doing
great at work. Okay, those might be words her mother had planted in her brain,
but she had planted them well, watered them and made sure they could keep
growing on her ’til Tina was sure they represented her own ideals for a
partner.
‘God,’ Tina
scolded herself, ‘Eric is all you’ve ever wanted in a partner. The least you
can do is greet him a little more enthusiastically and give him a little more
appreciation. Would you rather be with someone who completely ignores you?
You’re being ungrateful!’
Luckily for
Tina, Eric’s employers seemed to have been given all the timing he was lacking.
Just when Tina thought she would have to introduce her boyfriend to Bette,
which she was dreading for reasons unknown to or unacknowledged by her, Eric’s
cell phone rang. “Excuse me for a
moment, babe.” Eric said and walked back to The Centre. He hadn’t seen
Bette yet and Tina intended to keep it that way, even though it meant she would
have to say goodbye to Bette.
She turned
back to Bette again. “Sorry ’bout
that.”
“Don’t apologize. He seems very sweet.” Bette said impassively.
Even though
Bette had kept her face devoid of any emotion, Tina thought she had seen jealousy
flash through her eyes, just for a second. ‘Yeah right, Tina. You wish!’
“Well, I have to get going.” Tina heard Bette say. She wanted to
scream “No, don’t go!” but with Eric just a few steps away, she
decided against it. Not that it would have had the desired effect even if Eric
hadn’t been there. Tina had learned from experience that yelling at people was
not the best way to keep them around, especially if you’ve just met them. And
she wanted to keep Bette around… as a friend, of course.

hi, I really LOVE this story! Very crisp, the inner dialogues and the conversations are marvelous. Has anyone wondered why no one has killed Alice yet? I’m just sayin! write more soon! really soon! I am also glad you cleared that up about the score of 10 being god. In olympic scoring, yeah, but in exams, at least for yanks,not so good!! Congrats!
good. I meant good!
Still liking it alot… :) post soon
Thanks. I’m really enjoying this, any chance of getting longer chapters?
Alice is being Alice. I love the voice mail message to Alice. Even though Bette is famous (and not just in my mind) she still has time for her friends to sit and laugh with each other. I wonder what is going on in her mind about Tina. I also wonder what is going on with Tina. Hope that they see each other soon. I don’t hate Eric, I just want to see Tina with Bette just because they are soooo hot together.
This comment board needs a Dutch language translator. Funny lines in this story. Pls. continue. Fun story
Poor Erik he doesn’t see that Tina is boring from him! i hope in the next chapter we read another talk between B&T
Good chapter. Well now Tina doesn’t like eric anymore so its time to kick him out off the picuter. Damn Alice is so funny and crazy!
2 chapters and you still leave us hanging!!!!!!! LOL Ik was aan het hopen op nog een hoofdstuk van dit verhaal… En nu kreeg k r zelfs 2!!!!!!!Je schrijft echt heel goed! Bedankt!
ps gefeliciteerd met de 10!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha…that voicemail really funny..can i borrow it be my voicemail greeting? :p
Wow, justloveB+T is one to talk about cliffhangers. LMAO =p Yeah I kind of feel sorry for Eric already. He seems like the kind of guy who tries really hard and of course, the guy every mother wants her little girl to bring home. I dated a guy like that when I was 13. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING! lol I had a reason which I’m not proud of, but I was only 13 so I chalked it up to being immature. I also know about the ending of the “you get all my free time” phase. So far, if I’m with someone and I get to see them often (as in we live in the same general area), then I fall into a comfortable phase with that person, get bored, and want to find someone new. I haven’t been afraid of committment in the past. I just have relationship ADD or something. And why the hell did I just go into my lack of a love life? Give me a top 10 list and call me Alice I guess.
I really like this story, Alice is funny as hell. En ja hier is het ook te koud wanneer komt de zomer eraan?Je schrijft echt goed en ga vooral zo door. Post soon.
I agree with B&Tforever…I am sure Eric is a very nice man…he is just not the one for Tina! And, the sooner he knows that, the sooner he can move on and find the one he is meant to be with!! Thanks!
i don’t hate eric, i’m just always bored by him…let’s get another B&T accidental meeting
I love the story 2 chapter in 1 day whooooooooooooooooooooooo but your killing me here you have to make them longer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great! please continue as fast as you can!
Poor Eric he either slaping Tina around or following her like a puppy.. Cant strike that happy medium. Bette will be back, she did make a promise to David. thanks
