Summer Vacation. Chapter 32
Previously:
“He’s a bit pissed off,” Lottie admitted, “he’s kind of demanding to know where I am and what I’m doing,”
Bette stayed silent for a moment,
“He’s just being a ‘dad’ is all,” Lottie continued, accepting to herself that her father was probably genuinely concerned,
“What ‘are’ you doing?” Bette asked,
She was; rediscovering her family, getting the support she needed, or building broken bridges perhaps? Was she searching for some kind of direction, or was Bette supposed to be the one who would tell her what it had all been for?
“I’m …”
It didn’t have a description really; she was just home.
Summer Vacation – Chapter Thirty Two.
You know how some days you wake up and from the second it registers in your mind that you’re awake you just know that it isn’t going to be a good day.
That was exactly what Lottie thought as she opened her eyes.
At 9.15am she started staring at the door, wondering where Tina had got to, aside from the day before it was highly irregular for her to even be a minute late. Her 9 o’clock sat waiting patiently on the sofas across the hall, staring down into the second cup of black coffee Lottie had supplied to placate her.
She twirled her phone, it’s position upon the desk, urging it to ring; there was no precedent for this, for what she should do when Tina failed to turn up.
It scared her as it jumped to life in her hand, turning across the table top on vibrate. Tina’s 9 o’clock looked on hopefully, but Lottie shook her head regretfully back, indicating that it wasn’t Dr Kennard who was calling,
“Hey,”
“Hi …” said Jo, a little frosty, “so … tell me why my fairy has a broken wing?”
Lottie laughed, “Oh, yeah …, she paused, and turned her voice to one of tragedy, “she broke it, in a skateboarding accident,”
“Yeah,” Jo replied, “I got that much …!”
An odd silence followed. Since Jo had been the one to call and from work too, Lottie figured that she had something specific to say so kept quiet,
When if felt like several minutes had gone by, Lottie wondered if she was still there, “Jo?”

hey, i’m first! *squeals with delight* that was great hun, super duper great. i was kinda enthralled…so much so that i have neglected my work for half an hour, re-reading your story twice. ok, so helena and alice..very subtle which made it all the more yummy…i like them together, and its good to go into that “why start, we got hurt once before, blahblah” angst that everyone goes through. people avoid shit cuz of those convos and i say ‘hooey!’ so i’m glad they’re going there! and jo and lottie…lottie should call the girl. i like that you’re going into that as well–those communication subtleties that are layered and different among women…we can all play those parts, we can all be emotionally clueless…the best is when the group jumps on lottie about that. i cracked up. i also cracked up at dana’s preggers breast fetish…hilarious…keep up the story, i furkin’ love it:) xo, pps, when you get some time off work darlin’
Very nice! I really liked that lunchtime round table discussion. Re: Jo, As hb said, Lottie needs to just pick up the phone. Al + Hels, I still like! And I wonder what trouble is coming from Mr. Lottie’s Dad. (can’t remember their last name?) Glad you had the time to post, more when you can, sofa, ta!
YAY YOU’RE BACK AND I HOPE YOUR PRESENCE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE A REGULAR ONE!!! I had forgotten about this story, however now I am truly happy to be reminded about it once again. Lottie’s dad..hmm drama to come I feel the winds changing. Jo and Lottie have gotta to make up, with both of them meeting half way, cause as I see it neither of them is wrong. NC17 with Al and H to come, (prefer NC17’s with B & T any day though). I love how Tina comes in and reprimands them from there fights and such, its cute. PPRS!!!!!
I can’t wait to see how Lottie’s father behaves. It seems like so much of her life is clothed in mystery. PPS!
Well this chapter surely had Lottie at the center of a lot of drama. Entertaining all around. Love the scene at the planet as they all ganged up on Lottie. Can’t wait to see Lottie’s dad’s reaction to her new life.
Yeah, Lottie’s avoidance lost her her chance to have some control over her situation (with her father and Jo) and now the shit is hitting the fan at the same time as her father is knocking on the door. It remains to be seen if his presence will be as traumatic as Lottie feared. Also remains to be seen if Jo or Lottie will step up to the plate (an Americanism) in regards to their issue(s). I like to use parentheses and you like asteriks. To each his (or her) own.
oooo! This should be good! I am thoroughly enjoying your story, especially the new characters you have created! One request: Can you write a scene with Sharmen? Post soon!
Hey there Sofa! Brilliant chapter. Always love the group scenes… can just imagine Dana drooling over the baby breasts! Your dialogue is so much better than what the show provides. Interested to see the fallout over the arrival of Lottie’s father… I sense drama in the works. By the way, if it’s positive reinforcement you desire, I am only too obliged to beg for chapters!!
Me too Sofa, I’ll beg, I love this story, you just suck up into being one of the family. Thanks good job, can’t wait for next chappy, please do so soon, there is weekend coming up. Md
Perfect!!!!! Great!!!!! and the cliffhanger!!!!! u better hurry up and post the follow up….
So Lottie’s dad has graced his daughter’s life. I hope that he will not freak out while in Bette and Tina’s home. When he sees Bette will he see her mother in her as he see her in Lottie? I love Alice and Helena together. Besides Bette and Tina I would like to see those two together in the upcoming season.
That was awesome!
Sofa your story and storytelling just gets better and better. I love the subtle parallels between Lottie and Bette, they are sisters afterall, right?! You have the dynamics of these characters down so well that the dialog and their interactions, their quirks (pregnant breasts?! LOL) come totally to life on the page. i hope you never get tired of giving us your version of the girls, I don’t know if I’d survive!! LOL. PPS
