“How was work?’ Helena asked, moving the subject along,
“Fine,” Lottie smiled, “brief,”
It was 1pm and she’d barely been there for two hours, she’d take a long lunch, probably entertaining herself with Helena and Che until she was sure it was safe to go back,
Helena grinned, “You recovered from your hangover?”
Lottie groaned, “Yeah …” she paused, eyeing her cellphone mysteriously, “just about”
“Who was on the phone?” Helena asked, catching her downward glance. She made her question seem light and uninterested,
Lottie paused, “Um …”
She sat playing with her lunch whilst Helena waited, patiently, knowing enough about teenagers to know not to push,
“My Dad …” Lottie admitted quietly,
Helena nodded, waiting. Che meanwhile decided that Lottie’s sandwich bore closer inspection and began dismantling it,
“He’s mad,” said Lottie simply, “he wants to know what’s going on, when I’m going home, when I’m going quit doing this stupid thing I’m doing …”
“What stupid thing?”
“He thinks I shouldn’t have come looking for Bette, or he didn’t want me to,” she paused, hoping that Helena would understand, “he’s just like all the others, he gets mad because I’m trying to take control, just like Roger, Mom’s lawyer, just like all the others who sit on the board, they all think I’m just some idiot kid who’s got no sense, they think Bette’s gonna steal all my money or use me to rip them off …”
Her voice trailed away, weighed down by sadness.
“Rip *them* off?”
Helena was intrigued, having heard only about ‘the board’ and the mysterious trust fund of money from Bette, Lottie rarely spoke of it and certainly displayed no affectations suggesting inordinate amounts of wealth.
It was an oddly familiar situation for Helena, only her family pot of wealth had her Peggy at the forefront, strong and dominant and totally in control of those beneath her who wrote the cheques and pulled the purse strings, no men dared stand in her way. Still, she knew all too well how hard it was to work all the while at living up to something when really all everyone around you assumes is that you’ll fail.
Lottie nodded, “Them … them or the companies they’re supporting,” she paused, inhaling deeply, “I don’t know where most of the money goes …” she added sadly, “but I somehow doubt it goes to the sorts of places my Mom would have wanted,”

WELCOME BACK and what a way to come back with an NC17. way to go, payback s on hold now though considering Angie’s little mishap and Bette’s meltdown about that.
So glad to see YOUR BACK!!! Please do not let Bette have a major meltdown and go off on Lottie. GreatNC-17 Thanks PPS
Cool, ur back and a great come back too. as usual a treat to read ur stories. just love it:)
glad your back, i’ve missed this story. wanted to say that even though they are all friends, have they ever thought or if anyone’s ever pointed out that maybe bette doesn’t want everyone speculating about her and tina’s sex life. they all know they do it alot, but they don’t always have to acknowledge that know.
Welcome back. Great update. So glad Kit set Bette and Helena straight so they could get the butts in gear. Can’t wait to see B&T reaction to Angie’s mishap.
I hope Bette reigns in that temper of hers, She was ok with Angie going to Shane’s shop. Skateboarding can be dangerous and when you do things that are dangerous there is the possibility that you may get hurt. A broken arm will heal, but sometimes broken relationships with family don’t.
I’m so glad you’re back. I loved this chapter. Can’t wait for the next one. I do know about working taking you away from writing. It sucks. Luved it!! PPS
So glad you took a break from the workday grind to return in such a funny, sexy, hot way. A brilliant post as always!! Loved the roses.
A big welcome back to you sofa! You have been missed! Poor Ang!
ah, i have to re-read, i read too fast…too eager…ok, that was fantastic, because it was realy well crafted as a story, but then i say that every time, because its true. you’re a born storyteller. is a boy hitting on lottie? why didn’t helena and alice get it on? lol…ok, ok, you don’t write to please only me, but the scene with tina and bette was…hehe…daaaamn good. ok, more comments tomorrow, when i’m giving a onger chance to read this long story in cut and pasted form. xoxo
Oh wow, I was so happy to read this chapter. As usually, I am always late to the party and probably last to comment, but hey I am here. Lottie is going to feel so bad about Angie’s accident but even if she was there nothing could have been done to prevent it from happening. I always love Bette and Tina adult alone time.
Damn B&T are hot, hope Angie is ok!
If you took your time getting back to us at least you came back with an epic. Gracious! So very much going on! Since that’s the case, I think I’ll refrain from revising my comments-at least for now. I’d really appreciate it if you would send Kit over to my place to offer sage advice and tell Lottie I’ll gladly run interference for her with the suits in exchange for a percentage.
Ruh roh. As others have said, I do hope Bette is relatively calm… but who knows, it might be Tina that goes off on one. Auntie Kit’s advice to Bette and Helena, as always, was spot on. Maybe her cooler head will prevail in the Saga of the Broken Arm. Such a good update, sofa, thanks.
