    Author Notes:

    Kit worries about Bette (continued immediately from the last chapter)

     

    Kit didnt like the road Bette appeared to be starting down. She would leave early in the mornings for work, hours before she was due in, only to arrive home hours after the Center closed. Half the time she went to bed without dinner, disappearing into her room and shutting the door before Kit could ask her how day went. She refused to leave her room over the weekends, spending hours on her laptop apparently working on upcoming projects. It was becoming obvious that Bette Porter wasnt taking care of herself. Kit attempted to get Bette to open up about the affair, but she was met with absolute resistance. With the exception of the general excuse of  I fucked up, Bette gave no detail or reason behind what she had done.

     

    Bette had fucked up. Tina knew that. Kit knew that. The girls all knew that. But more importantly Bette knew that.

     

    Kit had noticed a definite change in her sister after Bette returned from New York. She had gone to meet with Helena Peabody, to secure a grant for the C.A.C. Something had happened in New York, Kit was sure of it. When Bette arrived back in L.A. she hadnt spoken two words the entire ride home from the airport. Eventually Kit was able to coax some information about the trip during dinner. It seemed that Helena Peabody didnt care for art in the same way that her mother did. She was more interested in social justice programs that benefited the poor, especially children. And while she didnt directly refuse to give the C.A.C. a grant outright, she did assure Bette that the foundation was looking for projects elsewhere.  

     

    The only good thing to come out of any of it was that Tina wanted to try living together again. It was the first time Kit had seen Bette smile in a long time. The happiness, however, was short lived when Bette learned that largest Peabody Grant was awarded to The Headquarters for Social Justice of L.A. It was the very same Peabody Grant that Peggy Peabody awarded to the C.A.C. year after year. This year, though, The Peabody Foundation left the C.A.C. behind. Bette, hurt that Tina hadnt at least warned her that she had applied for the grant, lashed out over the phone and arrived home later that night to find Tina gone.

    3. I was looking to see if you posted and to my supris there it is , i love this story and i hope that Bette fights hard for Tina and does’nt just sit back and do nothing. Looking foward to more

      Great chapter. Poor Bette. I like the emotion from her in this. Things just didn’t happen the way I thought they would on the show. I like this better :)

    7. oooh…first to post! Again!
      hahahaha “Tina’s sleeping with Franklin?”…that’s great. I love Kit, she’s too funny. So I gather that whole “Bette brings Tina flowers at teh C.A.C, goes off on Helena, and finds out about the pregnancy” doesn’t happen in your story? I like the flashbacks, are you going to have one when she finds out about the pregnancy?
      I’m glad Kit’s there for Bette. Hope the girls come around. Haha, like Bette said… they could call her, or mail her, or stop by and see her.

      Great update. Can’t wait for the next installment (we will find out why Bette’s at the doctor, right?)

    9. Damm girl this shit if fucking great, I’m glad kit is there so bette can vent.
      Ok so maybe if you stop proofreading your writing so much you could post sooner?? Just a though. I don’t care if you mis spell a word, or don’t have a coma. LMFAO at kit’s “tina’s sleeping with franklin”

      You left us with a cliffy don’t tell me your one of those mean writer who likes to make us sweat for the next update LOL, don’t worry I will still be here waiting for the next one.
      YOUR doing a great job!!!

    10. I love your version. I love Bette and Kit’s interaction, that was something the show was missing last season concerning Bette’s affair.
      I can’t wait for the next installment.
