    Author Notes:

    Coffee Date, Take 1

    "Actually, walking would be nice considering I sit at a desk for most of the day."

    "Then we’ll walk."

    Bette held the door open for Tina and they walked sided by side down the busy sidewalk. The two women made a concerted effort to steal an occasional glance of appreciation without being noticed; however, it proved to be a difficult task as they were each drawn to the other’s beauty.

    They walked in silence until they entered the small café. Bette ordered for the both of them then they settled into a quiet corner table.

    "I didn’t think you would show" Bette admitted after a moment or two of uncomfortable silence.

    "Um…" Tina wasn’t sure if she should be honest with the brunette, but considered the alternative to be unacceptable. Whatever this was, it would start with honesty. Tina wasn’t one for playing games. "To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I was going to come."

    "Can I ask why?"

    "You were kind of scary the night we met." Tina admitted with a nervous laugh. The laugh was cut short; however, when the beautiful brunette with the stunning eyes matched her gaze.

    "About that…" Bette took a sip of her coffee before leaning forward in her chair, "I’m…I have a lot going on right now, especially with my gallery. It’s no excuse for the way I behaved, I know, but I wasn’t myself."

    "You’re not a beautiful, controlling, short-tempered narcissist?" Tina joked.

    "I’ll fess up to the controlling short-tempered bit, but I wouldn’t refer to myself as a narcissist." Bette smiled, "Wait a minute, did you just refer to me as beautiful?"

    Tina blinked repeatedly before opening her mouth to speak. She had referred to the brunette as being beautiful without even consciously thinking about it. It was a truthful and natural observation, one that no man, woman, or child would ever dispute; other than, of course, to correct that the term "beautiful" really didn’t come close to describing Bette Porter’s physical attributes.

    "So I did," Tina confirmed in a hushed tone.

    Bette was shocked by the blonde’s honesty. It had been so long since she had a conversation with someone that wasn’t trying to get something in return. Bette’s days were filled with meaningless banter and empty flirtations. What she was sharing with Tina now was as real as anything she had ever known – and it scared the hell out of her,

    3. LMAO gotta love that bloody domino efect! Oh reeeally love this chap! It spice it all up, well one thing for sure, this’ll be one messy tibette ff, can’t wait! “Because you looked lonely. And you looked like you might be a good lay.” – LMAO!! Oh Bette Bette… Tnx for posting, please update soon!!;))

    10. Dang!!!!, to say I was shocked is an understatement. What the Hell were they thinking? Bette did go a bit too far and I don’t blame Tina for leaving. I do blame Tina for beginning the lies. Bette needs to do something quickly to turn this around. My mind just reeled at what Bette kept saying, and I hurt for them, I couldn’t believe it. Hope Bette attempts to fix this soon. Thanks for posting.

    11. Open mouth and insert Manolo Blahnik. That was a messed up thing for Bette to say and she really should not have reacted like that although that seems to be the theme for Bette in this story. That being said,why did Tina feel the need to lie about having a boyfriend? I’ll tell you why. Because she already has a pre-concieved notion of who Bette is thanks to Shane’s comments about “The Bette Porter”. I can’t wait to see how you work this out. :)

    18. Hey Scaf! Great to have you back with another story! What I’m gonna say might sound weird, but I actually loved this turn of events! I think it was the perfect direction to take. Why? Because, that was so in character! Given the way their first encounter went at the bookstore, I would have been disappointed if they had both fallen into a confortable and smooth interaction with one another right away. I mean, I guess after this chapter they can finally start to take a path toward knowing a bit more about each other other than their respective auto-defence mechanisms, but a too rushed evolution of their relationship would have been unrealistic to me. That’s just my opinion of course. I genuinely think that this is proof that you are a ‘natural’ with writing a beautiful intrigue, the fact that your writing unexpectedly took a different direction. It’s almost as if the characters you created had decided for themselves… Genius! Now, I’m excited to see where you’ll take those two, but for me, that chapter was totally in character and in tune with the chemistry that is slowly settling between them. Long comment I know, but I really wanted to express my feeling about this twist of events. Thanks for the story, you’re a very talented writer! Cheers, K

    19. Hey scaf, What started out so well suddenly flipped and became the meeting from Hell. Tina’s bluntness about her botfriend just brought out the worst in Bette. Suddenly a stream of offense phrase flowed from her mouth and pushed Tina all the way out the door. I was LMAO at this scene. Good for Tina in walking away at this abuse. Now, Bette has some serious ground to recover. I hope she makes it up to Tina soon. Just a great story, beautifully written and constructed. More please. Many thanks fronm Your Loyal Fan.

    21. Happy Thanksgiving!! I am loving the fire and the spice here!!! Was xpecting a hand grab that lead to the inevitable 1st kiss, glad & saddened that it did not happen. PPVVS!!
