“No … no I’m fine, I have all that.”
“Good.”
Her shifty shuffling made Li giggle.
“What?”
Li shook her head, indicating nothing.
In that second, Lottie could see that she seemed older somehow, and so despite being useless at the having just got her period advice, she did the one thing she knew that she could do and talked to her like she was a grown-up, like she would understand.
She pulled Li down to sit beside her on the couch. “Why won’t you tell your Mom?”
Li shrugged, hoping to evade the question.
“I think she’d want to know.” Lottie stated, “and besides, she’s going to find out sooner or later.”
Li shrugged, that much was true. “I don’t know.” She stated. “Because she’ll tell Aunt Alice and then Aunt Alice will make this huge fuss like she did the time Angie asked what a ‘69’ was in the chinese restaurant and I’ll be embarrassed.”
Lottie chuckled, aware that with Alice as your Aunt embarrassment was probably something you grew up expecting. “Why did she ask that?”
Li shrugged. “Wilson put her up to it.”
“You know, when Alice makes a fuss she’s only doing it to show how much she cares.” Lottie pointed out, applying reason to Li’s argument.
Li paused, silently thinking things over. “She really cares about Mummy, doesn’t she?” She added after a while.
Lottie nodded. “I think so.”
“Do you think they’ll get married?” Li asked, neither giving away whether she wanted that or not.
Lottie frowned. “I don’t know.” She paused. “But whatever happens, if they do get married or even if they don’t I think they’re serious about being together.”
Li nodded. “I know.”
“So maybe when Aunt Alice makes a fuss of you and of Wilson it’s really just her way of showing that she cares and that she wants to be a part of your family?”
Li nodded again. “I suppose.”
“Look at it this way.” Lottie offered. “you could just humour them both?” She paused, looking for a better way to explain. “I mean, when I got my first period I was at boarding school in England and I had no one even remotely close to me to tell, and I bet it was the same for your Mom. So I’m sure she’d be really happy if you told her, and Alice too, and if you tell them not to make a fuss then I’m sure they wont.”

There’s some sort of self-possessed multiplication thing going on with the pages … it’s spooky :o
The way you ended this chapter, I’m, uhm, speechless. :-) Li and Lottie were so cute with their awkward period conversation. Family in all its various permutations, loving this story as ever. Thank you, sofasitter!
Wow that was quite the update! Can’t wait for Paris. : )
Another epic chapter, Ms. sofa. Don’t tell me you don’t covet my Ramones panties! Actually, they are imaginary and I would suspect that no matter what one’s gender and orientation might be, little could be more repellent than Joey Ramone’s face on one’s partner’s crotch. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again-that man was uuuuuuugly. Your description of Lottie’s grilling reminded me of my mother’s famous “dryburgers”. My old school father insisted that all meat be cooked to a dry, tough, tasteless state of varying shades of gray. Yum! So the geezers make sparks with glass and might even make a baby. Alice and Helena make it official. (I would have thought Helena would have better security than to let Wilson sneak in and out at will.) And with Lottie’s cocoon of first love opened by Jo’s departure gets to wonder in a new way about relationships. Meanwhile Li and Ang wait in the wings, observers for now.
great to see your post. I do look forward to more.
Trust Bette & Tina to come up with their own twist on how to achieve a sense of tranquility and wellbeing through physical, cardiovascular and VOCAL exercises. *grinning stupidly* That’s one hot yoga session, sofa! Bette even did an advanced leg lift somewhere. LOL! Can’t wait for the Paris chapter(s?). I call it the Oohaa City because you’d go “oooh” or/and “aaah” at almost every turn. Bette, Lottie and Angie would bask in the art works there everywhere. Will Jenny join the trip? I feel kinda sorry for her because she’s the lone single in the group. Maybe you can pair her with someone else, but not Max please. As for your rebuttal on the “myth”, I stand by my vivid recollections of my few trips to Drunkenville. But I understand Lottie’s blurriness. If I accidentally slept or fooled around with someone else just hours after my significant other’s flight, I’d plead alcohol-induced amnesia too. Huge thanks, sofa! :>
Dang that was not in Bette and Tina terms. Hot, sexy and steamy those two. Alice is still a hoot with her defination
Dang it, my computer is acting up or maybe it is my server. Whatever I was in the middle of my comment and then all of sudden it was in cyberspace. Alice is a hoot.
zomg sofa, when do we get another installment? This one is absolutely fantastic…and HOT like whoa…and now I miss ’em all and want to hear more!!
wow…that was super hot…and it even had tina involved and i *still* thought it was hot! that takes mad skills babe, which you have in abundance. as i sit here and you write away, tap tap tapping all that brilliance onto your jet-black space-age million dollar micro-laptop, i am sort of daydreaming about your first book signing and how i might get free espressos as the grrrrlfriend of the brilliant author. i look forward to that day, but for serious! because you’re uber-brilliant. i like how each chapter is just a really really good story and i want to read more no matter how little interest i have in the actual show! this should *be* the show, i’ve said that before, but i defo think that IC should hit you up to write a never-ending ‘summer vacation’ version of the L word. ok, i’ll stop embarassing you now, but you deserve all the gushing love. xoxoxox and pps;)
YOGA FIGURE 69, WELL DONE. lOVE THE STORY. Glad u r reading IF IT WASN’T. Its supposed to be a short story…a diversion for ONLY U and MELTDOWN really because I can’t bear to bring them closer to the end, I have a problem with endings!! pps
As I have said many times before I just LOVE this story. I was reading Greentea’s story which has extensive info about yoga but didn’t mention 69 at all lol good learn sumthin new:)PPS
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM, Sofa, I would have had one of those nice little family comments to make back on pg. 11 but not I think I’m just a llttle to flustered. Ok, going to look for a yoga partner. Thank you, Md
See… that was hot. So hot that I’m feeling all goofy now. I’m sure I had something witty to say about Al and Hels but that’s all gone now. I’ll maybe remember it at some later point, and it really won’t have been that witty at all. I really can’t wait til they all get to Paris. Great chapter, thanks for the update, sofa. cheers!
Yoga, rofl alice is too much. love the li and lottie chat,lol..kit is so funny calling bette on her lets make a baby look,lol… fantastic update!! :)PPS
