Summer Vacation. Chapter 15
“Do you make a habit of that?” asked Lottie sarcastically as Jo unleashed her from the sewing machine,
“Of what?”
“Flirting … when you’re already seeing someone … doesn’t she mind?” Lottie asked, straight faced and tense,
Jo was taken aback, “I don’t know what you mean?”
“The flirting part? … or the fact that you’re seeing someone?” Lottie replied icily, “because I might be off on one but I saw you at The Planet on Tuesday and I don’t think I was wrong about that”
Jo paused, “No …”
Lottie stood up to leave but Jo stopped her, “I can explain …” Jo offered,
“Don’t bother,” said Lottie, “I have enough on my plate already as it is … … … Justin … Kyle …” she called, “come try on these suits for me …”
And with that two little boys came running, cutting off any chance Jo had to respond,
By the time they’d finished clearing away the gear from rehearsals and made their way back to the house it was getting late and everyone except for Kit and Lara was already there, Alice was holding court over the alcohol and making random suggestions like everyone should go in the swimming pool before they ate because they’d be too full to go in after, Lottie thought she seemed nervous.
Thinking about it she felt nervous too, she had on the way over in the car too, luckily she had Angie who seemed to sense such things and merely shrugged, indicating that she didn’t for a minute think that any of her Aunts would think it was a big deal …
“They aren’t like that …” said Angie, “they only fuss about the very important things …” Angie added, resuming her game of twenty questions regarding Lottie’s recent disclosure,
Lottie hadn’t really wanted to ask what qualified as important, but evidently Bette having another sister was still news, yet not the sort of news to get worked up about. Besides, almost everyone who would be there already knew and they seemed fine about it, a little shocked but mostly fine. They’d all said nice things like how she had Bette’s eyes and Bette’s smile and mustn’t their mother have been so very pretty and how nice it was that they’d found each other even though she was gone. All the kinds of things one says, Lottie just hoped Bette wouldn’t be too disappointed to find out that her big news was already ‘out’,

i hope alice won’t keep her mouth shut and tells what lottie whispered to her in the next chapter ;)
All this time we say mini Porter or Porter Junior, maybe we should now say Bette Junior or mini Bette when it comes to Lottie. Or maybe even Maxine Juniors because it seems that Maxine’s genes were quite strong. Loving this story and can’t for the next post.
I super loved this chapter. I can’t wait for the next one. I hope it’s very soon. PPS.

Good that everyone accepted Lottie!
Ooooo great chapter, one big happy family :o)) What did Lottie whisper?? And I hope Jo gets the chance to explain herself, those two are so cute together! More please….loved it :o))
Hey Glad to see Lottie being accepted by everyone. Makes life a lot easier. Now to Virginia.
Suites? Regency? Well! Lottie’s family obviously is one of good standing. They sound like they’re Old Money… Very stuffy, staid, very harrumph. I hope Bette cuts a comtemporizing swath through the lot of them. And what did Lottie whisper to Al? Hrmmm…. Great update, thanks, sofa!
great, loved it….nice family scene…
