Lottie looked her up and down. No, this hadn’t really been the plan … well there never really was a plan but if there was then this wouldn’t have been it. Only now it was Tuesday and she was still no closer to seeing Bette and the longer this went on the more anxious she got. She tried really hard to remember what possessed her to think she could just turn up and not have a well thought out plan …
“… you should have had a plan,” she whispered quietly to herself, tapping her finger gently against her own forehead in admonishment.
“Excuse me?” said Tina, not quite catching what had been said.
Lottie viewed her with wide eyes, “I … I … heh … I suppose it is a bit childish.”
“Childish? …” queried Tina, wondering how exactly a suite at The Renaissance Hotel was childish?
Lottie sighed, she should have called or sent a letter, an email even, all good ideas but not one of them ever came to fruition. The letters got written, emails saved but never sent and she knew the number by heart but never once had she dialled it. It had gone on like that for weeks, she figured once she saw her, maybe even got to know her then she’d know what to do. Unfortunately she hadn’t been there to get to know.
“Lottie? …” Tina pressed, observing the faraway look in her eyes mixed with a hint of something else, was it fear?
“I guess I never thought it through properly,” said Lottie, lowering herself down onto the wall beside Tina and pushing her hands between her legs, they were shaking. “I was so determined to get here, I just never thought it through.”
“Why were you determined to come here?” Tina asked, feeling the anxiety transcending from the young girl sat beside her.
Lottie studied her carefully. Had she succeeded in getting to know Bette this past week? She knew her partner, her friends … she knew how much they all loved her, missed her. She felt as though she understood what was missing just by Bette not being there. If anything it just made her even more afraid to come clean.
“All my life …” she said, implying it was a long life, a well worn life, “people have told me what I should and shouldn’t do, tried to influence and persuade me … people who don’t even know me have tried to change me” she paused, searching for the right words. “It was my decision to come to LA …” she explained, “mine and nobody else’s … and I was so determined to do that, I wouldn’t let a little thing like living arrangements get in my way.”

Yeh great story I also think that she is Bette’s half sister
Whoa…u wrote so well…but I don’t get the telephone fight, meaning I saw NO REASON for either to get mad BUT as it lead to a make-up phone convo okay!!!! Loving the suspense but not forever, huh???? Are u gonna leave it for Bette to get home and see Lotte for the big reveal…hope Bette comes home early to surprise Tina, of course!!!!
oh yeah, I’d prefer for her to be Bette’s half-sister; same mom, different dad’s…
You’re wonderful – posting all those chapters in a row!! Thank You. Love it ! Love it ! Love it ! But what the heck is “stropping”? Or am I just so far removed? Please continue. _Soon_
Is it Monday yet? I can’t wait for Bette and Tina to get together for family time without kids. Also I wonder if Bette will see something in Lottie that will get her mind to wondering.
Sofasitter you have spun a web that is very mysterious. So Bette isn’t Lottie’s mother unless Lottie lied to Tina about her mother dying when she was 7…shoot she is lying about her reason for being in LA so why wouldn’t she lie about that? If Tina and Bette would have been talking about anything else they would have had an argument also because Angelica said that’s what they do…it’s part of the process. I hope Bette comes home early…in time for the BBQ. I love this story and I hope you post again soon and end all of our guessing.
Good chapter!
God, I love this B&T! I think you’re giving us an awesome relationship here!… Okay, I know monday is not too far away, but I can’t help but hope for a suprise early return… A girl can dream, right? Thanks!
story is great!please,please,Bette needs come back soon and Lottie tell her secret!! I like big chapters.
You are really making me more crazy than I already am because of trying to figure out about Lottie. Hope you let us know about that mystery soon. I know when you read these comments you are probably laughing, because as you can see I am not the only one going crazy here. LOL Thanks and please don’t keep is on the edge of our seats too much longer.
So is this Bette’s sister and its Bette’s mom that died recently? Answers, I want answers!!!!!
Who the hell is she and what is she to Bette?
I’m betting she’s Bette’s half-sister…Because of the “white mother” comment and “no mention of Kit”…But we’ll see…
Yeah, I’d get touchy if Bette was away and I were Tina. But glad they had such a nice make-up conversation. :) Lottie’s getting cozy with the teacher!!
