    Holiday Fic #5: Tina surprises Bette with an awesome gift on Christmas.

    “No more than I am,” Tina said dryly. Bette laughed.

    “Okay, upstairs we go!” Bette said, grabbing Angie’s hand. They trotted upstairs and Tina followed.

    Angie turned around and smiled at Tina. “This is fun, Mommy!” she cried.

    Bette went into the bedroom and checked the third drawer on the left side. She came up empty.

    “Look in the other one, Mama,” Angie suggested, hopping from one foot to the other.

    Bette did as Angie said and underneath a pile of clean t-shirts, she found another note. “Aha!” she said. She began to read:

    “My dreams came true when I met you

    Then we had Angelica, too

    I know this love will last forever

    And we will always be together

    Look in your favorite book on the shelf in the living room.”

    Bette handed her collection of notes to Angie, who promptly began to fan them around and made her horse talk to them.. “How many more of these are there?” Bette asked.

    “Hurry up,” Tina said. “I’m running out of space.” It wasn’t so urgent but she wanted Bette to get to the car already. Tina figured she had maybe done one too many clues.

    They trooped back downstairs, with Angie running ahead and hopping around by the bookshelf in the living room, made even more buoyant by the proximity of her own gifts.

    Bette pulled down an anthology of African-American poetry from the shelf.

    “Are those poems better than mine?”

    “No,” Bette lied. Tina laughed anyway.

    “And now you’ve come to the very last clue

    Hope this ‘hunt’ has been fun for you

    If not? Then, well – at least I tried!

    To find my gift, just go outside.

    It was fun, T. Very cute idea.” Bette leaned in and kissed Tina briefly.

    “Outside, Mama,” Angie said impatiently, grabbing Bette’s hand and leaning forward as if to propel her mother to move.

    “Alright, alright.” Bette went to the door and swung it open and looked down at the ground, as though she expected her present to be on the front porch.

    She looked at Tina, confused. “I don’t see anything.”

    “It’s there,” Tina said, trying to sound as casual as possible, although her heart was pounding.

    3. Thanks for this Christmas gift. Awesome post. And I so dont mind if you post Chistmas stories all year round. It’ll be like Christmas every day! Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas

    5. I loved this story: quasi-angst, pseudo misery – love, hugs and kisses abounding. Thank you for the lovely Christmas present. I enjoyed every minute of reading it!

    7. I’d thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this story …love the banter between Bette and Tina (“undergifter”) to Alice’s suggestion of “metal art” gift…What did Bette get for Tina? Thank-you O’Malley for this terrific heart-warming christmas story. Hope you’re having a fantastic festive season!

    10. That was a wonderful story and so like them. Very lovely. Don’t mean to be a spoil sport, but what did Bette get Tina and what kind of car was it? We could have another chapter to complete this series of stories by telling us what Tinas’ gift was from Bette and what kind of car Bette got? How they all enjoyed the drive and Bette and Tinas special “thank you” when they went to bed, or at least a hint of it. Thanks for posting.

    16. Em…Omalley…what did Bette give T for X’mas? Oh, please do tell…This was simply delightful. I think my fav X’mas story of 2009. The entire premise of “undergifting”, competetiveness, Tina’s predicament, the gang’s solution, and the build up to Bette getting the car (I was holding my breath on that one)…was so great! Best of all, your dialoque is so real and just shows the connection we love in Tibette. So well done! Love your writing…and yes, I’d take your stories 365 days a year…no pressure. LOL! Merry X’mas!!!
