    Author Notes:

    Home visits, with no Roberta Colley in sight.

     

    Bill winced.  He and his wife had followed the famous real estate adage to purchase the cheapest home in the best neighborhood they could afford.  Their house had been a wreck when they bought it and he and his wife had spent thousands of hours working on it themselves.  It was now a very nice home that they could sell for a handsome profit, but it was still among the smallest houses in West Hollywood.   The Fairbanks, though, were a family that could dream that their daughter would become a tennis pro and put enough money into those dreams to perhaps make them come true.  On top of tennis, their children rode and Bill was certain that they also sailed and skied and croqueted.

     

    “Your mommy and I will have to think about riding lessons.”

     

    “I don’t want lessons if Bette doesn’t.”

     

    Bill crossed his fingers and hoped that Bette was afraid of horses.  He didn’t hold much hope that that was true of a little girl who his daughter said could sit in the top rail of the monkey bars without holding on.  He was certain he had never been that brave.

     

     

    ~~

     

     

    The two sisters walked along.  Each gust of wind blew the balloon directly into Kit’s face and she batted it away.  When she finally moved to Bette’s other side to avoid the flying piece of inflated, the wind shifted so that the balloon continued to smack her face.

     

    “326, 328, 330…”

     

    “Stop mumbling, Bette, I can’t understand what you’re saying.”

     

    “I wasn’t talking.”

     

    “Yes you were.”

     

    “I was just reading the house numbers.”

     

    “And?”

     

    “If this is 332, then that is 334 and 336 and 338.” Bette pointed down the block.  “That means that 344 should be down past that corner.”

     

    The two girls craned their necks but the street curved slightly so the Kennard house was out of sight.  

     

    “That’s good because I’m gonna grab that balloon and stomp on it if it hits me in the face much more.”

     

     

    ~~

     

    When he saw the Porter house from the curb, Bill almost whistled. When he and Dorothy had been house-hunting in West Hollywood, they had always driven by this house and gazed at it longingly as they drove by.  When he got home, not only was his wife going to learn that their daughter’s Valentine is a girl and that that girl lives in their dream home.

    1. Spumoni, when I see there’s an update from you I can’t wait to read your Author’s notes and the story. You didn’t dissapoint this time. I enjoyed both so very much. Thank you for this wonderful story.

    3. i love this story… but i’m growing old waiting them to meet… lol… melvin is not a nice man… and i’m glad tina at this young age was not scared off by him… ok we are all here waiying for your next post… pps

    5. You know, if your daughter’s friend DOES read L Word FF, I have a feeling someone’s going to get told off for all of these stories that keep surfacing… I would look into alternate aliases. Cadogan worked well, I think. Spumogan, even. Now, because you already now how much I utterly adore teenage Kit (because I do), I won’t repeat that. No. I will instead tell you that I love Bill. He reminds me of my dad… well, before I turned into exactly him and our relationship cracked a bit. But still, he would have done that. So yeah, Bill + Kit = Major WIN! (Sergeant Win? LOL). Anyway, you crack me up, woman. I’m so glad every time I see an update, that not even my crazy schedule can stop me from reading it. Oh, one more question, did you ever attempt to beat up or lecture the other 7 children who refused to give the eldest, non-germified-binky-consuming child Valentines? It somehow sounds like something you’d attempt to improve upon the strategy’s results.

    6. Spumoni… you crack me up, woman. I hope these two meet up at some point and exchange Valentines, or else I think wee B&T might explode. As patient as Kit and Bill are being, I’m not sure if they’re up to handling pint-sized heartbreak. thanks for the post!

    7. They always seemed to be a step behind or in front of each other. I can’t wait for the moment they actually come face to face. Mr. Porter scares me to death, I will take the Kennards over Mr. Porter any day.

    9. This story is very cute, but you are torturing us readers, I love the scene in the previous chapter with Tina in the flower shop and Bette buying the stuffed unicorn, and the reactions by Bill and Kit were precious when the girls reveal their Valentine’s. I can’t wait for their actual meeting. Your stories are good for the soul. THANK YOU!!

    10. LOL This story is adorable! No wonder Bette and Tina’s communication sucks as adults…it’s been that way from the beginning! LOL Thanks!! And thanks for the great author’s notes. :-)

    11. Damn, Spumoni, I know it’s too late to have you be this middle aged cynic’s Valentine, but I so look forward to your notes. Could you perhaps get an account at LiveJournal so we can follow your musings, whether or not you have a story going?

    12. What a difference between the Kennards and Melvin. He is so curmudgeonly. Your AN is a hoot and very delightful. You’re an excellent storyteller.

    13. Spumoni…you need to put warning signs for your AN’s. I laughed so hard that 1) the dogs came a running to find out what’s going on 2) nearly had to go pee…laughed that hard! Germ phobia. ROFL! You are a stitch!BTW: You are killin me with the missing of each other. Glad that Tina is so positive since Mr. P is a grouch. Please let them meet upon Feb 14th…c’mon Spumoni…let that romantic heart of your’s write young love.

    15. You’re not gonna make them continue missing each other to torture us, right? Can’t wait to see what happens next. Is it bad that I was actually hoping that Tina would tell Melvin that she wanted to make Bette her Valentine so that the old scrooge would have a heart attack, keel over and die? I know, bad right? But I quickly squashed this morbid train of thought, don’t worry.. cause if that ever happened, then this story will stop being about cute TiBette and segue into the dark and twisty TiBette of S2 *shudder*. And I love cute TiBette, especially if you were the one writing them. So.. carry on great Spumoni (I want another update.. stat! Demanding much? Lol). Till the next one.. :)

    16. damn…are you kidding? the girls will keep missing each other…you are killing me here…btw, love your author’s notes as well, you always make everything really enjoyable…just those little girls together, please

    17. Fantastically funny AN and the story is so damned sweet and cute, as are the girls. Happy that Tinas’ parents have good sense and good manners. I was so hoping that Melvin would not be an asshole in this story but he is as always a superb intimidating asshole. Please let them exchange cards and gifts at Tinas’ house so she and her father won’t have to go back to Bettes’ house and talk to Melvin again. Nice people should not have to deal with Melvin, ever. He’s ever only going to be an ugly person to deal with. Thanks for posting.

    19. The suspense is killing me!! Please have them meet up either at Tina’s house or on the sidewalk if they decide to walk back home!! I don’t want Tina OR her father to have to deal with Melvin the old fart again!! I love this story!

    21. This is just to say my cheeks hurt from smiling so hard while reading your last three posts. =) Thanks a bunch, Spumoni, for helping me stretch out my facial muscles to the limit and of course, my sugar fix. =) Little TiBette are so lucky the store attendants they met are not as stiff as Melvin. I can’t wait for their face-to-face sidewalk, porch or balcony scene. Btw, this sweet little tale will be sweeter and lovelier if the smitten little girls will really end up as each other’s forever Valentine in a flash-forward scene 10 or 12 years later. It’s just a thought. Thanks again, Spumoni. The fluff that this story and geegee’s uber sweet epilogue supply will tide me over for a while. P.S. Your author notes are hilarious! Self-deprecating humor + deadpan delivery = comedy gold. Cheers! =)

    22. I already said it lol, don’t know if I enjoy more your AN than the story lol. Your AN was so funny. Recorded at the time and shown now would have been more hilarous pmsl.
