“But that’s a good thing …” said Helena, seeing the self pitying look on Bette’s face, “a ‘really’ good thing …” Helena paused, her own eyes misting up with emotion, “If there’s anything I’ve learn recently it’s that you should never take for granted the people who come into your life …”
Bette gripped Helena’s hand hard, knowing that she spoke of Mandy, but also of Winnie when she said that,
“And Lottie came into your life for a reason …” continued Helena, sounding prophetic.
Helena sighed, bringing her own emotions under check again, she smiled across at Bette, “there’s a lot of wonderful things you could do if you spearhead that charitable trust Bette, look at what the Peabody Foundation does … no more looking for grants yourself you’d be the one deciding who gets them …”
She made a very convincing argument,
“But …” began Bette,
“Just think about …” Helena interrupted, “The Beauchamp Trust leans heavily into the arts … that’s money for artists that ‘you’ choose … organisations that ‘you’ deem worthy …” she paused, muttering under her breath, “it’s no wonder Lottie wants you in … you were fucking ‘born’ for this role”
“You’ve heard of it?” Bette asked, surprised, “The Beauchamp Trust?”
“Of course …” replied Helena, “they stick mainly in Europe … but I’m surprised you haven’t … they sponsored Feinstein’s tour of Contemporary Installations … it went to Paris and Rome, Hamburg … all over, we saw it in Barcelona … remember…? … at MACBA?”
Slow realisation crept over Bette’s face, “That was a Beauchamp Trust project?”
Helena nodded,
Bette paused, sighing, “Run by that little dickhead Lewis Crantz … great … what the fuck have I got myself into?”

Lottie sat with her feet up on Ruby’s chair, reading through a pile of overdue group referrals … she chuckled to herself, if Lisa chose now as an opportune moment to come back to work she would surely be in for the chop, she’d sent Ruby home early and she was sitting there with her shoes and socks off drinking chocolate milk through a hot pink bendy straw that she presumed belonged to Angie,

I swear Angie’s becoming a mini Alice. Too funny.
Awww perfect – loved your version of fuzzy wuzzy, so cute :o)) Hope Lisa won’t loathe Tina for this and the Bette/Lottie talk was great, Lottie is so sweet especially when Jo is around or when thinking of her LOL. More soon please…
At least we found out what Lisa’s problem was… I didn’t think Alice could leave anyone *that* cranky. The way Bette and Tina are together is really so sweet, no wonder Lottie’s all warm and fuzzy looking at them. Maybe she’ll get that with Jo… That being said, it would be *excellent* if Bette and Helena conspired to take down the old twits at the Beauchamp Trust, Old School Alpha style, one de-balling at a time. That’s something I’d be looking forward to seeing. Young Lottie can study at the feet of the Mistresses, and become fully trained in the Ways of the Alpha. Jo won’t know what’s hit her after that! This chapter was ace, sofa. Thanks!
Wow! Excellent post. Your writing is so eloquent. I love it. More please!
No one love like Bette, but Tina is the rock of the gang and the most understanding. Lottie will be loved by Bette completely as will Tina love her but Tina will be the one she comes to to be understood. thanks
This is a fantastic story Love It PPS
Wonderful. Perfect.
I love this Bette and Tina!!!! oh if only IC can read this. And not drag it out like she said in the podcast with RS!!!! DID U UPDATE YET…LEMMIE GO CHECK!!!! LOL!!
WOW!!! GREAT POST!!!! Thanks PPS
Fuzzy wuzzy is exactly what I’m feeling right now!!! Thanks so much for this post. Angie is so cute, I could totally picture her asking that chicky question, and then ewwwwwing at B&T!!! Nice to see that Bette can be there for Tina as well. I liked the “control freak” reference… Is it because of last episode? ;) You B&T represent my ideal B&T in 7 years time! Seriously… And the aliens probably won’t have invaded us but it might be that the lesbians have to save the world from IC’s writing!… ;)
This chapter was slammed full of information. I loved it. Helena has really become a good friend to both Bette and Tina. Tina did the right thing by getting help for Lisa. I wonder how Alice will feel when she finds out what happen to Lisa. Bette and Lottie are going to be great business partners and the rest of the world better take cover because they will storm the world together.
I love this story.
Love your story.
Magnificent
sweet
Hated to read about Lisa. Hopefully, she will get the help she needs and her kids back. Thanks for allowing Bette to make an effort in reaching out to Lottie. I thinking talking to Tina helped her alittle with her feelings. Now it is time for the be a little Alpha and go see Jo!!! However, she really should not discuss her and Jo with or around Angie!
This is just the best…really, the BEST!!!
Really utterly beautiful. Shame we have to wait, but hey it is worth the waiting.
I love this story. I hope it still lasts very long. post soon
I concur with all the previous, commenters…sweet, magnificent..the best… how wonderful it is that Bette and Tina are such a great role model, (well their relationship), as Lottie begins to sort out her feelings for Jo. What a simply marvelous story…
