The Crown Rests 2
Tina was snapped out of her revelry by Bette calling her name.
“Tina, look I know we’ve only just met and this might seem a bit weird to you but I’m going to see my father this weekend at his place out in
“Are you sure your father won’t mind?”
“He won’t mind and he’ll just love you.”
“Just as I do” thought Bette dreamily. “*****! Where did that come from?” Bette could feel the colour and heat rising in her cheeks. “So what do you say?”
“Yes, Yes I’d love to, thanks” said Tina smiling. “However, if I don’t go now I’ll have to wait for a night bus”
“What do you mean night bus? Asked Bette pulling a quizzical face as if Tina had suggested that she intended to travel home by donkey.
“You know a big red thing with wheels that transports people at night around
“Thank you Chambers dictionary for the definition. However, my query was the fact that you would consider travelling on one.”
“Bette!” Sighed Tina “We’ve had this conversation. Me junior, you QC, remember?”
“I tell you what as I got off lightly with the food bill how about I take you home in my cab”
“I can’t let you do that, I live in Hackney it’s completely the opposite direction from
“Ok you drive a hard bargain, this is my final offer you go home in the cab that’s just arrived, which is on account and I’ll get Mac to order another one for me.” Bette put up her hand to prevent Tina from interrupting. “I insist and will brook no argument; it will do your career no good to upset the Silks in you Chambers!”
“Ms Porter it strikes me that your contention is sound and therefore I rest!” Said Tina contritely bowing her head in an exaggerated manner.
“Mmm, I think you could go far at Rivercourt” said Bette
“Well it wouldn’t do much for your ego to lose to me twice in one day!” with that Tina, still laughing fairly skipped out of the restaurant relaying her thanks again to Bette for the lovely evening. Leaving a somewhat stunned but amused Bette whispering “Goodnight Tina” to the lingering trace of her perfume.
Bette was startled out of her revelry by Mac. “Hey, Elisabeta, she in love?” he said with cheesy Italian accent.
“Shut up Mac and get me a cab and a new heart, I think mine has just been stolen!”

God..can’t wait for you to take us to the English Countryside.
Very nice, I am looking forward to see how the weekend in Essex goes, daddy will definitely not like that Bette has brought someone home for the weekend. I am looking forward to your next post.
absolutely beautiful, love the language and the story…can’t wait for more
I am absolutely amazed at the level of creativity of you folks here on fanfiction. I love this story—Tina and Bette as barristers ;-) Hope they have some bouts in court—other ones, I mean. I, too, cannot wait for the trip to Essex.
So Bette’s an “Essex girl”?!! It’s so good to have another home country story – very enjoyable and looking forward to your updates.
I like this, looking forward to reading more.Thank you.
Thank you for your author’s note! I have to admit though, that I had to ask my wonderful guide, what exactly the “Bullring” is. Would have enjoyed seeing the marketplace in action!I will be going to the convention, and after that will be spending about a month visiting…and although I know Tracey (tbsaver) is going to show me as much of your beautiful and historic country as she can, I will be exploring on my own some of the time while she is at work. Really enjoying the story…the different use of the language…”Mumsie’s!!” Looking forward to the next chapter!! Thanks!!
Well Seahurst told me that I needed to read this story and I am so glad she did. I love to see B and T in different environments, and lets face it you don’t see them in England that often!!!!….Fantastic start, I love it!
LOOOOOOOOve it, Keep it coming and soon.
I have a feeling Melvin won’t like Tina even though T & B aren’t a couple yet.
Let’s hope in this story, Melvin is completely smitten by one Ms. Tina Kennard. I would be nice to have one story where there are no obsticles for them to hurdle. Nice story… Kudo’s to our sister on the other side of the Atlantic.
