Summer Vacation. Chapter 34
Slowly Lottie managed a faint smile, “I suppose,”
“C’mon …” said Jo, urging the humour back out of her, “there’s a bunch of ten year olds waiting for us to turn them into a Shakespearian masterpiece …
Lottie rolled her eyes, reluctantly getting to her feet again, “Oh God …!”
~
“Ange!” Tina yelled, “Angie … come on!”
Like a hurricane Angelica came hurtling down the staircase, her ballet shoes tied together and slung over her shoulder as she tried to force her head into the neck of her pink hoodie,
“Mama … did you shrink this?”
Tina grinned, taking pity and helping her out, “No sweetie, that’s the arm,”
Bette sat on the couch, her beloved mug of coffee cradled against one arm as she quietly went through a stack of papers Roger had given her copies of after their trip to Virginia. She felt her head begin to burn, understanding what Lottie had meant when she said she often felt out of her depth when it came to the Trust,
“Mom,” said Angie, breaking her mothers attention, “can I take my camera to rehearsals?”
Bette frowned and turned around, “I don’t know Ange, you don’t want to break it,”
“I wont,” Angie assured, “when I’m not using it I’ll leave it with Lottie or Jo, I swear,”
Bette smiled, realising it was the first time her daughter had felt able to address her teacher by her first name, even if it wasn’t to her face, “Okay … but make sure you do,”
“You ready?” Tina asked, going through her daughters bag one more time,
Angie giggled, “Yessssss …. costume – check, shoes – check, camera – check, script – check, wings – check, Oh … wait,” she added, dropping everything at the bottom of the stairs and running back up again,
Tina stood waiting, wondering what she’d forgotten,
“Stacie’s Hilary Duff cd,” panted Angie, breathlessly returning, “I was practicing the dance steps,”
“There’s a Hilary Duff song in A Midsummer Night’s Dream?” asked Tina, groaning,
Bette chuckled, putting down her papers to join them, “Give it up babe, give it up, I’m sure Jo and Lottie know what they’re doing,”
Tina didn’t look convinced, “Right,” she said to Angie, “Here’s the money for the tickets, you remember how many you’re getting,”

Hel is always catching it, hopefully Bette takes the news well. Hel should kick Al’s ass or even better withhold sex that would really get her. PPS
aw, see, this is why you’re my favorite writer…i loved this chapter, and don’t argue with me. hehe. draughty dorm rooms, eh? hehe…*arches an eyebrow* i don’t suppose you know nufin’ ’bout that? *snicker* i myself never lived in a dorm room, as i think i’ve told you, and i’m happy not to have…but can enjoy others storie. hint hint. anyway lovely, this was really cute and i’m thrilled to have read two postings in less than two weeks with your crazy schedule. i even like shane and carmen in your stories, which is not a usual thing…newdawn does them as well, in a way i like, but you make all of them so sweet and realistic and healthy and interesting…a hard combo lady! pps whenever you can (i’m looking forward to reading over your shoulder when you do babe;) oh, and for funnyone’s benefit, i am NOT making bette and helena celibate, just cuz i’ve been *told*…but they’ll run into rough times ahead. muahahahahaha…ok, but i’ll be gentle.
I seriously laughed out loud with this one. You made my day by posting today. This chapter was awesome and I cant wait for the next one. I bet that Bette goes all out for a b-day present for Lottie, but what could it be. hmmm PPVS
Alice is tooo funny. Making all these plans but too afraid to tell Bette that it is Lottie’s birthday on Thursday. And Tina thinking that everytime the phone rings that it is Angie. Loved the long, slow, death by sex from Tina to her sexy wife Bette.
Oh man that was so funny and Alice so so crazy but gonna love her, poor Helena lol. Please post soon, thanks!
Sofasitter, this is one terrific story…I am thoroughly enjoying it since discovering it 3 nights ago! Really well written, fabulous dialogue and your Lottie character fits right in perfectly. The sad part is that I see you haven’t udated it since September…you’re killing me….I hope that you will finish it. Please update?
Too funny. Damn what a way to spend Sunday morning. Lottie’s Dad derserved so much more, but Bette should tell her. Alice you big chicken. This so reminds me of my friends. The phone usually starts around 8;30 and I’m the same way. Like who the hell is calling at this time, cos they know better.
I loved reading it.I laughed a lot.Thanks.
Helena better make Alice pay for that. They should all make Alice pay for that. God, it was just Lottie’s birthday. I was sitting here wondering if she was really a man, if she had a prosthetic limb or other medical condition, if she has to wear corrective lenses when she drives. Maybe she wasn’t willing to donate her organs. Nobody wants my organs anymore, they are assumed to be tainted by my diabetes, but I like them. And nobody has to make me wear my glasses, I’m too goddamned blind to do anything but go to the bathroom without them. But a word about Word: I say fight the machine! As helebette knows, I’ve seen it try to change her to “celibate”. Now, I’ve never met the woman, but it just didn’t seem right, so I didn’t allow it.
Best Sunday morning ever! I totally get not wanting the pets to “watch” anything. They usually want to nap or something though. Usually. It’s just best if they’re out of the room. Um. Yeah. I don’t think Hels will get it in the neck for telling Bette, it’s not like it’s *bad* news or anything… It just means that once again, Bette’s one of the last to know anything. And everything’s being planned without her. Which is likely… well, bad. Oh well, Hels, we hardly knew ye. The chapter was too funny, lovely to read. Post when you can sofa, thanks!
