I awaken early. It was around 6 am and it was still dark outside. I decided to get up and have my shower and dress for the day. I decided to wear some jeans and a sweater over a tank top. Once I was almost finished getting ready, I received a call from Bette. She too had gotten up and prepared for the day and was ready for some breakfast. She had called the Head Butler and received instructions to go to the Presidential dining room and there we would be served a full breakfast.
I then met Bette in the East Sitting Room and we walked down to the dining room. We were met by Helena who was dressed in her business suit. Bette and I were dressed similarly which was significantly more casual than Helena. She quickly assured us that we were fine as we were guests and not employees of the White House.
After breakfast, Helena gave us a full tour of the White House including the Presidential Bedroom, sitting room, dressing room and bath. The furniture in those rooms was very contemporary compared to the rest of the house. Helena said that this was the furniture used by the Obamas when they were residents. There were two more bedrooms on the main floor, one which were used by Mark and Helena and one had been converted into an office for Mark and Helena. Those rooms were significantly smaller than the guest rooms we occupied. We toured the kitchen and auxiliary rooms, the Yellow Oval Room, and the Treaty Room. The Treaty Room was a large conference room used for meetings when needed.
The third floor was a variety of bedrooms, a game room and other rooms designed for guest and family. When the Biden’s children and grandchildren visited, they took up residence on this floor. The first floor was the public rooms which most tourist see with White House visits. The large ball room where many of the state dinners are held; the china room which holds several sets of china for formal dinners which is in red; the green room which is a sitting room; the blue room which is another sitting room; and the stair cases leading up to the residence and the one leading to the basement. The basement was a maze of rooms which consisted of offices and quarters for the behind-the-scenes staff who are responsible for the running of the White House. The tour was absolutely fascinating.

Jeez!?,
I’ve only read the first paragraph and am welling up….how do you do that?
I can’t think of a time when they are not together.
I’ll continue reading now, tough beginning though
I’ll comment on the flip side
Thankyou for all your incredible stories Martha…your a f@@king Rockstar
Well, what a story, I really enjoyed it.
I love how they meet, their time at Camp David and the natural progression they took together.
Try really are perfect for each other and your story certainly reflects that.
I still can’t bear to think of them not being together!
Thank you so much, a beautiful story.
I look forward to the next one.
Janice24,
First of all this story is an alternative time and life for our Bette and Tina. The story is being told by a woman who is older (85 years old) and has experienced a full and joyful life with the woman she loved. They have had more than 40 years together even though they didn’t meet until they were middled aged. I like that they took the time to get to know one another for a few days before charging into a romantic relationship. I like that Bette insist that Tina think about her own life and if she is prepared for the changes which will occur as they start to see each other romantically. Bette wants Tina to make her decision about her life knowing the possible downside. For me, that shows immediately how much Bette respects and cares for Tina right out of starting gates. I also like that Bette insist they talk about things fully as they go. She seeks out Tina’s boundaries and comfort level before they do anything. This is why their relationship is so strong…. they hide nothing from each other.
From the idea to publication, I took 4 days… I enjoyed writing this story because I could see that both Bette and Tina would go from a mundane life to a life of love and devotion within a matter of weeks. And it would result in a lifetime of happiness. Isn’t that what we all want in our lives?
Thank for reading and for commenting on this story… until I saw your comments, I didn’t think anyone had read it…. Thank you for your support and encouragement…
OMG! How did I let this gem get past me. I loved every word. I would love to read something else from you, thank you so much for your talent.
OneStorm1 – Thank you for reading… I published this a little more than a year ago and I posted it this year on Achieve of Our Own. I do have three long book stories which is a single series and one other one shot which is about the same length as this one. I then not to writer about angst and problems between Bette and Tina. I think there are plenty of authors who present those kind of stories. All my published stories are on this website. Go to the story search page, put my name in under author (Martha3128) and they are all listed.
