Lottie smiled, remembering how Angie had expressed her own concerns at her decision to move there,
“Angie asked if the reason I didn’t want to stay here was because of her,” she told Bette, letting the statement settle a moment,
“She did?”
“Uh huh, she seemed to think that because of Jo, I wouldn’t want to …”
“Right …”
Bette’s eyes softened, picturing her daughter asking those questions, wanting to know if she might in any way be standing in the way of someone else,
“I said it had nothing to do with her,” Lottie assured, “just that at Helena’s I can come and go as I please, that’s all …”
“You couldn’t do that here?”
“Bette …”
Bette nodded, realising it wasn’t about that, “Sorry,”
“It’s not about you Bette, or Tina … or Angie or even me, if I lived here, I’d be here *all* the time, is that what you really want?”
Bette paused, swirling her water round and round in the glass. She lowered her gaze, avoiding Lottie’s concerned stare as a single silver tear coursed down her cheek,
“Bette…?” Lottie moved over to sit beside her, rubbing her arm gently, “Bette?”
Bette looked up slowly, sniffing back her tears, “If you ‘were’ here all the time then I could never say I didn’t try and spend as much time with you as possible …” she paused, “have I? … cos when you’re gone I want to know I did as much as I possibly could …?”
Lottie frowned, “Gone? … I’m not ‘going’ anywhere Bette, you don’t have to have me with you every second of the day for me to know that you want me here,” she grinned, giving her sister a friendly push, “I do already know that,”
“Do you?”
“Sure …”
Lottie opened her mouth to continue, but all the other words that she wanted to say seemed to get stuck somewhere between her heart and her mouth; all those words of condolence and support which had rolled so easily off her tongue during their many phone conversations seemed so inept when put in face to face context. She placed her hand on Bette’s shoulder, squeezing it gently,
“I’m worried,” said Bette quickly, looking her straight in the eye, “Kit’s so attached to him already and I’m worried,” she paused, “we don’t even really know if she can keep him yet … that’s why I didn’t tell Angie, it’s why I didn’t tell you, it’s because I’ve been so unsure,”

Loving the frequent posts. Great chapter and hot B & T connection… nothing like a little lovin’ early in the morning!
Yes indeed, THAT was fantastic, amazing, fantastic again, wonderful, awesome… and, yes, we do love you for it! LOL… Awww, I’m so happy that my sweet Summer Vacation is back! You didn’t disappoint, Sofa, and your two other stories are just as awesome! Love this connection between these two, I’ll never say it enough… Please give us more of their interaction, there is something just so special about it… But loved the rest too… Lottie is surely spending too much time with Alice, LOL!… Oh, and what’s up with Alice and Helena, huh? Hmmm, interesting prospect… Anyway, thanks so much for being back! Take care!
Angelica needs to chill. Allthis was just sprung on Bette and Kit, she could not tell the family about Che until she was sure they would at least be able to bring him home with them till things are settled. David’s wifes family disowned her probably because they didn’t approve of him, but may just be vindictive enough to take Che so his family who obviously already loves him isn’t able to care for him. Doesn’t look like Melvin approved of the wife either the way he refered to Che as the child. Lottie and Bette can afford the best lawyers so hopefully everything will go well for Kit. PPS
I have truly missed this story, I’m hanging on ready for whatever you’re gonna give us!!! Tks
Just love everything about this story!…the loving…the friends,,, can it never end? please!!?!?!?!?
Good God,I have missed this story and almost forgotten about it and what a come back.DAMN! post soon please. thxs for the update women*wink*
Glad Bette feeling better this morning. Thanks for the update.
well duh lottie, of course bette would be afraid of losing people. although angie had a right to be upset, but what she said was really uncool. it wasn’t bette’s place to tell anyone but tina about what was going on.
Lottie is Bette’s sister? Fuck, I AM lost! But don’t sweat it, sofa, just keep throwing me those tidbits and I’ll figure it out. It sounded like you might hook Alice up with Helena. That would be quite odd, but what the fuck, go for it. I don’t think I’ve seen that one before. And you kids these days with your crazy punctuation! Please *explain* why asteriks are suddenly impersonating quotes.
Thanks for the treat, so many good posts tonite I feel like its my B’daylol, Great chapter:)PPS
was wondering where this story went….or rather what is up with the author!!! LOL!! Thanx for posting…update soon please!!!
That was impressive, moving, and profound. Angie did kind of go overboard but I can understand that gave her an uneasy feeling. Kit should be able to keep Che considering nobody cared about the parents except for Kit and Melvin (well Bette even though she was still a little ticked at David).
awesome, I loved it so much that now I have some down time cuz I’m home with some strange virus…i re-read…awesomely brilliant….
That was awesome and love it!
a bit worried about a pregnant Dana drinking….love the love…
Another Awesome Chapter! PPS
i’m happy with the helena and alice turn of events…i like your take on them both and think you’ll write it really well. and that image–of bette’s towel falling open–*gasp* too good, too good. anyway, i only edited like two things, so even the editing credit goes to you. fantastic as always luv;) pps…after i’m out of your hair that is:)
Amazing update Sofa – super sexy and so much in there. There are always so many layers to your characters and stories. I love it. Your version of Bette seems like the one the L-Word should aim for. It seems very true to what we all generally regard her to be. Anyway, thanks for the update(s)! PPveryS
Rau, it’s Lara who’s preggers, not Dana.
Ace, sofa, just ace. Bette should go away more often, if that’s the welcome home. Al and Hels…? Really? Are we ready to go there? Hell, I’ll go there. Write it, and I’ll read it, avidly. …Potty was great, I was annoyed with myself at the time that I couldn’t read any faster, to be honest. Now tho, looking back, I wish I’d made it last a bit longer, cos there are no more. Ah well, I’ll just have to pester you and hb to post faster, won’t I? (I’m joking! ;) Actually, I’m not. No really, I am. Really.) Post soon!
This story is sooooo good I love it!!
