“Would you like to look around or maybe meet some people?”
“Maybe I should meet the hostess. That might be a good start.” laughed Tina, trying to relax.
“OK, follow me.”
As Tina walked beside Eric she caught sight of a woman. Dark hair, olive skin, expressive eyes and the most beautiful smile that Tina had ever seen. This could only be one woman. The infamous Bette Porter. Tina felt a tiny hitch in her breath that she couldn’t remember ever experiencing before. There was no time to analyse it now. She was being introduced.
“Excuse me, Bette. This is my girlfriend, Tina Kennard. She heads up development at Alphaville. Tina, Bette Porter.”
“Nice to meet you.” came the reply from the woman that had captured Tina’s attention.
“Nice to meet you.” was all that Tina could say in reply.
“Bette, we were wondering…how would Catherine Opie feel about us blowing up that print to about five by six feet.”
“Well, why don’t you ask her yourself? She’s right over there.” said Bette pointing to a short haired woman in the distance.
“I think I’ll just stay here.”
“OK. Excellent.” replied Eric as he moved away, leaving his girlfriend to talk to Bette.
“Eric’s great supporter of mine and, I have to say, a great customer.” said Bette, concentrating her full attention on Tina.
“He loves art, it’s his great passion.”
“And you?”
“I’m not sure that I understand it to the level that I should to fully appreciate it.”
“Take a look around, if there’s anything that you really like I’m sure that I can provide an explanation. All you have to do it ask and I’ll be happy to help.”
“Thank you.”
“It’s no problem. I should go and talk to some of my other guests but I’ll catch up with you later. You can tell me about how the art makes you feel.”
“Makes me feel?” asked Tina, quizzically.
“Yes, great art should make you feel something.”
“I’ll have to let you know.”
“I’ll look forward to it.” smiled Bette, not wanting to move but knowing that she should.
Tina walked towards a painting that had caught her attention when she first came in. As she stood and studied the artwork she thought about the conversation that she had just had with Bette. If she didn’t know better then she could be convinced that Bette had been flirting with her and there was something within her that liked it, loved it almost. Tina shook her head, trying to clear any confusing thoughts from her mind. Bette was a woman, a beautiful woman no doubt, but she was still a woman but as much as Tina stood there trying to deny it there was an attraction, a connection that was instantaneous between them.

I think every other interpretation I’ve read of their beginning had me hating Eric. Honestly, for once it’s kinda nice to just seem him as a nice guy who gets kinda screwed over. So realistic. Need I mention, great as always?
How can you not love the story of the first meeting. Is Tina telling someone the story, or are just visiting the events that brought her to where she is now?
Eric was the complete gentleman in this. This is one of the best geginning I have read. thanks for posting.
I absolutely agree with azmama’s comment. Just when i think that all the B & T beginning stories have been done, along comes this story. Wonderfully written ! PPS.
Oh how Tina’s life changed. Thank you for a wonderful story. I hope that Eric stays a gentleman even when T breaks up with him.
Gotta agree with the others this is one of the best beginnings I’ve read. Can’t wait to read about the journey to the melancholy of Chapter 1. Thanks!
I loved this chapter of how B&T met. What bothers me though is Tina now realizing that she has lost the most important thing in her life and she has hit rock bottom (coming from reading the first chapter)? And is there any chance of Bette and Tina talking out all of their problems and starting over?
keep it up. that was a great beginning. thanks.
I am gonna sit back and simply enjoy this ride….AMAZING!
Ahh love B&Ts beginning and can’t wait to see more!!!!!!!!!
Ooooh and I’m on top! LOL
lol@Jo! Wow. Now I’m REALLY curious about the first chapter and who the bartender is.
Wow, the best earring scene I’ve ever read! You had me liking Eric for a split second! Glad that didn’t last! So are we going to recall everything up to the point of Tina in the bar?? Hope so. Great story mate!
CG…This is so good. The talent and imagination that one can find in this group of fanfic writers never ceases to amaze me. When I think how can another B & T beginning be novel, along comes your story. How delicious!

ok, continue from there…forget the whole bar, tears etc…keep writing from there, pls…Your writing just sucks me in, grabs me and won’t let go…
Nice!I had a momentary brain fart when I thought the bartender was Eric, but then I realized “wait the bartender was a woman”!lol You write so well and Jobadge is right one of the best earring scene! Thanks and Post soon!
Amazing CG. Now I’m really,really,intruiged with this story. I really need to know how Tina got in that state she was in last chapter. Please post as soon as possible.
