The Conversion

Bette: Such as?
Andy: There are two units which heat this cabin. One for the basement and one for the main floor. We can turn the one off completely for the basement and allow the gas fire place heat it only. That would mean the basement temperature would fall to somewhere around 40 to 50 degrees. That would be uncomfortable for sleep. We would then move all the staff from downstairs to the guest rooms on this floor. However, there are six of us and two of you and there are 4 guest rooms and the Presidential suite. And I will not allow anyone but the First Lady and the President use the Presidential suite. So that would mean there must be two occupants per bedroom unless someone wishes to sleep on the sofas.
Tina: So, what you are saying is that Bette and I would need to share a room.
Andy: Yes, or one of you may opt to sleep on the sofa or share a room with one of us. And I would prefer that the staff not share a bed with a guest unless it is an absolutely necessity. The staff all know one another well enough that sharing a bed for a night or two will not be a problem. So why don’t you two go shower and then let us know your preference so we may prepare the cabin.
Tina: I have no problem sharing a room with Bette. Bette, what do you think?
Bette: That’s fine with me. You know I am going to require you to wear socks to bed, right? No cold feet.
Tina: That I can do. But that applies to you too.
Andy: Thank you. Let us go make the arrangements.
Tina: Why don’t I move my things to your room while you take your shower. Then I’ll take mine.
Ethel: Here are your lights. Just push the top down to turn it on and off. I give you two four of them.
Bette: Looks like we are going to have an early night. Let’s get moving.
That evening I moved my things to Bette’s room while Bette was in the shower. She was quick and came out dressed in pajamas and a robe and began to search for her socks. I quickly went and took a shower and dressed in pajamas and a robe and I too, found some socks.

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.
