Summer Vacation. Chapter 20
Tina smiled at her half-heartedly, sorry that they’d both got caught in the cross fire of Lisa’s downward spiral … and sorry also that ‘she’ was the one who now had to go and sort it out.

Bette checked her watch as she jogged down the road towards The Planet, aware that she was terribly late, Helena would be annoyed, she hated it when people were late or a no show,
She waved over at Kit as she entered, her face flushed warm from her little run, Kit smiled back as Bette wandered over, her eyes scanning the tables for Helena’s lonely figure,
“Seen Helena?” Bette asked, surprised that she wasn’t already there,
Kit shook her head, “No … want coffee?”
“No … I’ll wait” said Bette, looking around for a table,
“Won’t have to wait long,” noted Kit as Helena strode through the door, starting her apologies early,
“Darling … I’m so sorry … Li’s school called and I had to go on down there …” Helena said quickly, greeting Bette with a kiss on both cheeks,
Bette smiled, “No problem … is everything okay? … I only just got here myself”
Helena smiled, “Shall we?”
They sat at a table up in the back, perfect for uninterrupted conversation, Bette listened as Helena explained the problems she was having with her daughter not settling into her new school,
“It can’t be easy …” said Bette, laying a gentle touch on Helena’s arm,
Whatever might have gone on between them when they first met it had long been water under the bridge, of all their friends Bette found Helena one of the easiest to talk to, they shared many similarities, strengths and weakness and one of those similarities was a refusal to ask for a help and support when it was needed,
“You know … Tee and I are here for you …” Bette added, showing her support,
Helena nodded, wiping a stray tear from the corner of her eye … “I just … I want them both to be happy … you know” she said, her voice wavering,
Bette slipped one arm around her shoulders, pulling her closer, “They will be … they will … it just takes time” she added, speaking from experience,
Helena pulled away sniffing, “I’m sorry, you didn’t ask me here to talk about my current family crisis … I’m sure”
Bette nodded slowly, taking a deep breath, “No …" she said, "I asked you here to talk about mine …”

was wonderin where u went…..good to see u’re back
thanks for the awesome b/t scene. what’s up with lisa.
Hmmm… so Lottie’s been left a bit spellbound, eh? She’s got a lot of exploring to do, with Jo or whoever… (maybe not Al though. I think Bette would kill her.) Sweetness between B & T. I like that Bette can be vulnerable with Tina, and Tina can comfort her in the right way…. *What* is Lisa’s problem? She’s wound tighter than a drum, and is a total cow to boot. What did Alice ever see in her? Why is Tina partners with someone so constantly stroppy and uptight? Goodness… Anyway, I’m still loving the story, thanks for the chapter, sofa. Post soon!
I was thinking of this story today and lo and behold you post! Thanks!
You hit on all the high spots. What is wrong with Lisa? Bette will need to tell Melvin about Lottie. that will be hard thanks
great update!tooooo SHORT!P.P.S.
Love the level of communication and love u write Bette and Tina in this fic. Bette needs to be a lot more open and receptive to her sister.
Oh yea!!! Someone needs to check Lisa real soon and real bad.
I love how you write the small nuances that make up Bette and Tina. The early morning conversation that they had and then the love making session that eased Bette’s mind and allowed her to sleep were written so well that I could see it as I read. The fear of revealing to Melvin the existance of Lottie and the money has got Bette fearing her fathers response and his ill health. Tina is Bette’s rock and shoulder to lean on and she is going to need her along with their little girl to help her get through this period of unease.
Happy dance, u posted and such a great one too…I adore Lottie, and of course the relationships you have created with B and T, B and H…but wtf’s up with Lisa???!!!! Alice???? that was nasty what she said to Lottie and obviously envious!!!!thanks…more soon huh???
Great to see another post from you – I don’t have time for a long comment, since I’m at work….but know I love it :o)) The Jo/Lottie kiss was sooooo cute!!
Hehe… Lottie and Jo make me happy… Clearly, I just giggled. *rolls eyes* ANYWAY, fantastic as usual. Love the way you capture the little B&T things! :)
Lovely, intimate scene w/B & T in the wee hours of the morning.
I was so happy to see your post. Great Chapter!!! Just love B&T. What is up with Lisa? Thanks PPS
Lisa is a bitch and she need Tina or someone to slap her head upside down to stop her being a bitch. Anyway love Lottie and Jo, B&T. Poor Helena and like her friendship with Bette!
