    Author Notes:

    Bette and Tina story: 8-9 years after Season 2. What happened after Lottie told Bette?

    Bette studied them carefully, her hair was lighter and her skin too, she’d always appeared glowing to Bette when she’d known her. Her slightly heavier frame with its arms wrapped around a small dark haired child that was unmistakably Lottie. Bette felt a depth of emotions within her, swallowing fiercely to push back the tears prickling in her eyes. Lottie looked about four or five, her eyes sparkling with delight at what looked like a typical Christmas morning family photograph, a mother and her child enjoying their moment.

    Quiet sobs ran through Bette’s body as she began to see herself as the mother and not as the child anymore … she pictured Angie on Christmas morning tearing into her gifts, seeing her little girls face light up with joy was always Bette’s most favourite part. She thought about the possibility of leaving Angie now, at the age she was … and felt shocked by the fearful pain that wrenched at her heart.

    Bette smiled as her eyes fell upon a very old photograph, one she’d no recollection of, presuming herself to be the baby within the pram, but she recognised it clearly. It showed a young mother and father strolling under the shadows of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, the photograph Lottie had used to paint her picture.

    Had she gone there …? Bette wondered, had she gone to Philly in search of her …?

    She flicked through the remaining contents, some newspaper clippings from her time at Yale and NYU, others from collections she had curated and exhibitions she had shown. Her entry for the Archibald Kennedy prize was reviewed along with more articles of other work she’d done in her twenties. She wondered fleetingly whether her mother had continued to paint and whether she had wondered why Bette didn’t.

    The last article featured the opening of the new Bette Porter Gallery in LA, no more after that. Bette sighed, that was all before Tina … before Angie … all before the most rewarding and accomplished part of her life.

    “Hey there …” said Jo, getting the feeling she’d woken Lottie up from a nap, “were you sleeping?”

    “Um … no …” mumbled Lottie, although clearly she was, “I … um … sorry I didn’t answer earlier … Tina was here”

    4. Argggggg…I need more…more I say. I agree with Pattifloatn…they need to talk…you can definately tell they are sisters…both stubborn. More please.

    5. “Sorry I don’t have time to reply to individial comments… ” Don’t worry about it, and as far as I’m concerned you never need to. Remember, never apologize, never explain. ;-)

    10. Great! Great!… I’m so addicted to this story! I love that Tina took care of Bette after the bomb was dropped. I really really like your Tina. I mean, appart from her psychological expertise, she’s definitely very present and intelligent about the whole situation. And I love that after her first priority that is Bette, she still makes sure that Lottie is okay, for both’s (Bette and Lottie) sakes. After all, she IS Bette’s sister. I guess I love that she’s being Bette’s rock in this confusing time. Their relationship is so well balanced, something that we’d all love to see in the show at some point hopefully… Thanks sofasitter, PPS!

    13. Oooo great post, love this story. I know Lottie looked up Bette, but Bette is the adult here, so she can just as well go talk with Lottie….coz Lottie has now taken the first BIG step. I’m really looking forward to more and how you’re going to do this. I hope they become good sisters one day :o))
