Starting Over (22)
“Alice, I don’t want to ‘do the nasty with her’. I want …I want…to …shit Alice…, Bette put her head in her hands, sighed and finished quietly. I…I’ve never felt this way before…I … I’m…Shit guys, I can’t fuck this up…I’m so scared. All I could think about at the show tonight was what should I wear. What the fuck is wrong with me?. .. I’m picking her up at 6 tomorrow night and I’m already nervous. How the hell am I going to make it till then?”
“Well what’s the problem then she’s into you. She probably is way more a wreck than you. You know like you have done this before. That’s a bit of an advantage. Ya know?”
“Alice you don’t get it. I have never done this before. I’ve never really worried, ya know, God, this sounds so shallow. ..it’s like even when I liked the person I was with, I didn’t really worry…ya know … what they thought about me or how I looked. Shit, I never, shit…I’ve never wanted to you know…please someone…no I mean…I’ve always wanted to please my partners….Shit, I’m just a fucking cocky asshole. ..”
Shane reached for Bette’s hand and quietly spoke.
“Bette, stop that, your confidence is what draws women to you like flies, well that and um, well you know. Just because you’ve never done something before doesn’t mean you’re not gonna be great at it. You’ve already proven you can be great friends with Tina. You two really seem to have something special. Give yourself a break. She’s obviously crazy about you.”
Bette smiled at Shane.
“Thanks, Shane. You know it’s just that I’m 37 years old and I’ve NEVER been in a serious relationship before and I really don’t want to screw this up.”
Alice reached across and hugged her friend and then broke the hug, looked at Bette and spoke very seriously.
“So Porter, tell me, when was the last time you fucked up when you really wanted something?”
The women all looked at Alice. Bette looked at the crazy blonde and slowly smiled.
“Why, thank you Alice…That actually helped.”
“Don’t look so surprised. I do have my moments.”
They all laughed. The friends chatted for a few more minutes, and then said their good nights.

I do love it so when Alice’s rude comments are exactly what Bette needs. Their friendship is so unfathomable to me sometimes that, when things like this happen, Bette freaking out and one of Alice’s totally blunt comments gets her out of the freak-out, it gives me a moment of “ah, I get it”. Great job, D&A!
Alice the voice of insanity along with saneness.
Alice always Alice lol. Bette be yourself, Tina is waiting for you.(Just hope this wouls boost Bette confidence). PPVS
Great Chapter!!! Just love Alice. I so can not wait for B&T date. Thank you PPS
Bette does have it bad as well as Tina. They are so cute together. Alice seems to get right to the point.
I’ll just go ahead and third that about Al & Bette. I’m sure the date is going to go perfectly now that Bette’s had her confidence shored up (not that it wouldn’t have anyway). Thanks for the update, D&A. :)
Alice does indeed have her moments and it is singularly spectacular, as was that statement to Bette which she so needed to hear. Just be your splendidly beautiful and sexy self Bette, you have already captured the lady’s heart.Loved the chapter. Thanks so much for posting this wonderful story.
I love seeing Bette flustered. It takes a very special person to make her come undone like that. I can’t wait for the date!
I agree with everyone about Alice, she at times is Bette’s inner voice. I enjoy when Tina unravels Bette. It makes her real. So, what does Bette have planned for their dinner??????? Will Bette be Tina’s dessert????????? Great update. I really love this story.
I am with jikes…Alice is Bette’s wake up to reality. We all know Bette can go off on tangents where Alice’s blunt insight brings everything into perspective. Loved the interaction. Go for it BETTE!
Love this story and what a great update. Can’t wait for the date. Thank you :)
