“Not really …” Bette replied, Roger could dislike whom ever he liked but there was no reason to shelf his own insecurities onto Tina, “you never say very much about your father …” Bette noted,
Lottie fiddled with the remote, not sure what to say in response to that as there wasn’t really very much to tell, “I guess not …” she mumbled,
Bette watched her staying silent, finding that it was the things she didn’t say which told her more. How could it be that they both sat side by side, years apart … worlds apart … yet their lives had run such a similar course. Both of them missing a mother, both of them left with an overbearing and controlling father and a distant … absent … older sister …
Bette sighed, wondering if Lottie would ever really consider her family, perhaps by the time she was forty …
“Daddy never thought I should know …” Lottie whispered, pausing to get her facts straight, “he made the decision a long time ago ‘not’ to tell me and in doing so he kept me from learning a lot of important facts about myself …” she stopped, “he thinks he did it to keep me happy,” she added, “but he did it because it was just easier …”
Bette nodded, Melvin too could certainly be accused of running from the truth because it was easier, Bette shivered, wondering if Roger had the answers to some of the questions she’d given up asking Melvin, so many years ago …
“Are you cold?” Lottie asked, seeing her shiver,
“No … just thinking,”
Lottie glanced at the clock, “I’m gonna go to bed,” she said, finding it hard to keep her eyes open, “see you in the morning,”
“Night …” replied Bette,
Lottie left Bette sitting there alone with her thoughts, remembering what it had felt like the first night Roger left her alone in much the same way, a different hotel but the suite looked just the same. How she’d lain awake all night long, her mind surrounded by the deafening thoughts that maybe her father was right, perhaps … under some circumstances … it was just best ‘not’ to know …
“Mamaaaaa!!!” Angie giggled, throwing herself onto the bed beside Tina … the toilet flushed from within the bathroom and Bette re-emerged,

I so love this story… insomnia rocks if it means there’s something this good to pass the time. Why did Maxine not acknowledge Bette in her will? I don’t get that… aside from the obvious… And I can see Bette and Roger clashing even more. I hope Lottie can handle them both. Ack, I hope you’re updating this story soon, sofa, I need answers! Thanks for the post!
I love your Bette and Tina..they are so real! the dialogue is dead-on.. love Lottie and Angie’s interactions.. please continue, your’re doing an admirable job…Thanks
It made my day when I saw that you had posted. Seems like Bette and Tina have a very interesting night ahead of them. PPS
bout time you updated….never too soon 4 an update of this story. Gotta love Bette’s reaction to Lottie’s announcement, and Tina’s response, now that was GOOD!!!! PPS!!!!!
How long will Bette put up with Roger?? Not long if we know our Bette. Let him get a little rude with Angie or Tina and he will Feel the Alpha Bette up his snobbish butt. I do believe that Bette is tired of how he treats Lottie. Let him call her Elizebeth again and we will find out. the girls were so sweet to give the time alone. thanks
YES! she knows,and doesnt care.bette needs to chew roger up and spit him out,or bitch slap him or something? love this! p.p.s.
Romantic! PPS.
great, great, great
Yes, yes where were we? Continue soon please.
Ummmm, B&T had been dancing and Lottie knocked on the door. Their hands were all over each other, that is where they were before the knock. I am a tad lost. It is Lottie who is bringing in her sister as the second person, but why? Also, if Maxine knew where Bette was why did she not include her in one of her wills? Did she feel like she had to hide Bette or did she feel that Bette was better off without the knowledge that Maxine still cared about her?
Its kinda sad that Maxine didn’t remeber bette in her will. Any reason for that?
i love this story… i can’t believe her mom left her out… but i’m glad lottie wants her to be part of it with her… i like this kid… PPS
u just made my horrible hayfever day!!!!! great stuff, love the humour, more
I looooooooooooove it!!!!! … God, Sofa, this story is just great!!! It’s like reading a nice book with a very interesting intrigue, and the whole wrapped in fluffy marshmallow!!! You manage the B&T loving and chemistry so well, it just makes the whole thing amazing. But, hey if I can dare one request (not that I should have any given this is pure delight…), I’m really really hoping for the next chapter to start at “Now… where were we?”… ;)
excellent!
Damn love B&T!
