Summer Vacation. Chapter 23
Nick smiled sheepishly, pushing his two kids out in front of him,
Bette snuck in by Tina’s side, “Nick …” she said, holding out her hand formally, “Hello”
Nick stammered, “I … um … the kids still wanted to come to Angie’s party … if they’re still welcome?” he added,
Tina stayed quiet, not sure what to say,
“Of course they’re welcome …” said Bette, smiling at Rosie and Lucas, “Hi guys …” she said, “wanna come in and say Happy Birthday to Angie?”
Rosie nodded and Lucas followed, trailing behind his sister,
“I um … er … what time should I come back for them?” asked Nick, avoiding Tina’s harsh gaze,
“3pm …” said Bette, “or sooner, if you prefer,”
Nick shook his head, turning on his heels, “No … 3pm’s fine”
“Why did you have to go and do that?” said Tina to Bette, as Nick disappeared from view down the end of their drive,
Bette looked perplexed, “Do what?”
Tina wrung her hands, “Say to him that they could stay … I mean .. it puts me in a fucking awkward position!”
Bette could she that she was anxious and riled from seeing him, “Tee …” she said softly, “what would you have had me do?” she paused, glancing inwards to the house in the direction that Rosie and Lucas had gone, “it’s hardly their fault … is it?” she added softly,
Tina let out a weak frustrated sigh, “No … you’re right” she said, resting her forehead on Bette’s shoulder,
Bette ran her hands over the back of her head, soothing her before pulling her back to gaze lovingly into her eyes, “Lets worry about this later … okay?”
Tina nodded, “Okay …”

“Right!” said Alice, rubbing her hands together sinisterly after the safety advisors had finished going through their talks, “let’s talk team tactics …” she announced,
Bette gave her a withering look, “Don’t we have to ‘decide’ on the teams first?”
Alice looked smug, “It’s already done,”
Bette groaned, sensing it was pointless of her to argue,

Great job on the paintball! I pictured everything so clearly! this convo with dady Melvin should be interesting! Post soon!
i love paintball games they are soo much fun even for the big kids too. i feel drama comin with melvin and he well love lottie after he thinks about and absored it. p.p.s..for your info you signed a 2 yr.contract with this fanbase,and it will not be BROKEN!
I love paint ball. It doe wash off easy. Love that Tina and Bette are together On Lottie. Melvin is a whole new ball game. thanks
I loved this chapter. The paint ball game was awesome. I can’t wait for the next one. I hope to have a gillian chapter done in the next couple of days. PPS
i am now all caught up… loved this… too bad IC doesn’t see it our way… thanks for the fun and the love between all these ladies…
Oh god I laughed so hard with the paint ball game. It made me want to go out and have my own game. Alice cracks me up with her leadership skills. It sounds like they all had fun painting each other with the different colored balls. The party and gift giving was also fun and funny. I can understand the tension that both Tina and Bette feel. Lisa is Tina’s co-worker and she is afraid for her and then there is Melvin and how will he react to Maxine having another child.
I loved the paintball. Such an enjoyable chapter. I don’t think Bette should worry so much about Melvin and Lottie. Once Melvin sees Lottie he’ll figure it out.
That paintball-inspired game was a total riot! I knew Alice would lose, she planned too hard to do anything but get a pummeling… Lottie certainly is falling in something with Jo, she’s infatuated at any rate. Lottie counting the freckles was too cute. I wonder what Melvin’s going to make of her? And I’ve been wondering when Bette would start to feel overwhelmed. And now she’s got Melvin to deal with on top of that… hopefully Tina can get her through it. Great chapter, sofa. Thanks
wonderful birthday for angie, wondering how things will pan out with Melvin,pps
Great job, as usual. And the paintball was SO FUNNY! I adore competitive Bette! :)
The paintball game is fun and Alice is so funny!
