    The Conversion

    I do not remember much of what was said, but I do remember Joe and Jill seemed to treat Bette and I as if we were their daughters on a weekend getaway. They appeared to know more about us than we knew about ourselves. Disconcerting in a way, but in another, it was friendly, welcoming even loving. Helena and Mark joined us and then we were summoned to dinner.

    I do not remember much about that dinner. I was seated beside Bette. I remember that whatever was served, Bette was particularly fond of. It must have been a Pennsylvania dish as Bette, Joe and Jill were all natives of that state and of the same region. When dinner was over, we all went back to the sitting room for some conversation.  I remember that Joe was rather quiet and Jill talked about their plans for the coming weeks. After a cup of tea, the Bidens excused themselves and went to their room for the evening.  Helena then excused herself and dressed to make the trek to her cabin.  There had been a quiet changing of Secret Service Agents who were always present but never involved in the activities of the President and his guest. That left Bette and I in the sitting room to enjoy the fire. The evening was still early so we resumed our conversation.

    Bette: That was a wonderful dinner.  I love pork roast with sauerkraut and green beans. And that Shoofly pie was amazing. Reminds me of my childhood.

    Tina: So, do you want to tell me how you ended up in Seattle Washington?

    Bette: Sure, if you want to hear it.

    Tina: Of course, I want to hear it.

    Bette:  I was born to Melvin Porter, a black man and to Maxine Brown Porter a white woman. Maxine was Melvin’s second wife.  His first wife was a black woman Catherine with whom he had a daughter whom they called Kit. Kit is nine years older than I am and is a jazz and blues singer who lives in Chicago at the moment. Kit and I are not close, but she is my only living relative.

    Tina:  Your sister is Kit Porter?  I love Kit Porter. That is amazing.

      I love how they meet, their time at Camp David and the natural progression they took 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…

      • 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.
