Summer Vacation. Chapter 17
Lottie awoke with a startle, aware that the room was darker and quieter then before, Bette and Tina had left and Angie was sleeping soundly in the bed beside her,
She clutched her stomach as it let out another terrifying growl and seemed to turn inside itself, realising that if you didn’t count numerous cups of coffee and a few sweet potato fries in the restaurant she hadn’t really eaten anything all day,
“What are you doing up?” said Bette, surprised to find that she had company on her late night wanderings,
“Oh hey …” replied Lottie startled, she sat curled up on the couch beneath a large fluffy blanket, the lights and the TV down low, her fingers tearing apart a grilled cheese sandwich as she picked over some curly fries, “want some?” she asked Bette,
Bette chuckled, “No thanks …”
“I got kind of hungry …” Lottie explained, not liking to think what room service thought of her ordering food at 1am
“So I see …”
“How come you’re awake?” Lottie asked, wondering if insomnia was usual for Bette too,
“Couldn’t sleep …” Bette replied, “I started thinking about Roger … then I got annoyed … and then I couldn’t stop thinking about Roger,”
Lottie hit mute on the TV, shifting her feet on the couch so that Bette could share the blanket,
“He’s not so bad y’know …” Lottie mumbled through a mouthful of fries, “he means well”
“Well he couldn’t have meant much worse …” Bette stated, refusing to believe that their earlier dinner had come with good intentions,
Lottie paused, slightly scared at Bette’s thoughtful expression, “Please … it gets better …” she whispered,
Bette frowned, far too tired to decipher her cryptic comment,
“He was funny with me too at first,” Lottie explained, pushing her food away, “a bit withholding and tense, like he didn’t trust me at all … and it made no sense because he was the one who sent for me, he gave me the damn letter in the first place, or mailed it at least … neither of us would be here if it weren’t for him …”
Bette nodded, patiently waiting for more,
“He was so close to Mom …” Lottie added, her voice changing slightly as it took on a depth of emotion, “kind of like a brother …” she paused, glancing up at Bette, “I’ve learnt more about Mom from him in the last year than I learnt from my Dad in all the years since she died …” she added, wiping her greasy fingers on the blanket,

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!
