“She just wanted to be involved with the civil rights stuff we were working on “
I put my feet up on the fantastically old table – making sure there is a newspaper under my boots and lean back
“I remember when I first met you as well. You came into my office with a cat basket for some reason that I never fathomed? “
“Did I? “
“Yes “
“I don’t remember “
“I do “
“And now you and Shane are going to become mothers. “
“You really can’t get your head it can you? “
Alice shrugs.
“It’s really none of my business “
“Of course it is – you really think that your two oldest friends becoming parents isn’t something that impacts on you?”
“I think that I am not going to see much of baby Shane and baby Bette “
“Well for a start its baby Shane and Carmen and its baby Bette and Tina “
“See if it was just Babies Shane and Bette I might stand a chance of playing with your children – as it is – no chance – that just makes me sad. I guess I would rather leave the White House than be so much of an outsider “
“Alice – why do you have such a problem with Carmen and Tina?”
I don’t know if I am mad or sad with Alice – sitting here she cuts such an isolated figure – and for her to want to resign is the first time she has uttered the words that would be heresy a few years ago.
“That’s the six billion dollar question isn’t it?”
“It is – Alice – you and Tina were really close when she started and even when you found out that we were a couple you were great about it but things just went downhill “
“Do you remember when all the crap came out about what her mother said ?”
“Yes – our first and most horrific Thanksgiving “
“Exactly – you defended her and her family – I couldn’t believe that. I don’t say this often enough but you are a brilliant President. There are times when we don’t get it right as your staff but somehow you pull it off and make it right. I loathe anyone who criticizes you and there was her bloody mother saying all sorts of shite – and you “

You know despite some of the crap I said in the previous comments, I admit that Bette and Alice needed to work things out and I am glad they are slowly. I am hoping now that Tina and Alice will talk things through and that Tina doesn’t hold a grudge. PPS
Way to go Bette. Way to go Alice. Way to go Ally.
I found the Confederate flag more humorous than offensive. Granted I’m from a redneck state and totally cracker white. I could argue and call it an article of history, but so is a flag with a swastika on it and I wouldn’t like it too much if an employee put one of those up. No time to read right now so I’ll read it another time and leave a comment on it.
Yay! I’m so glad they finally talked like the adults they’re supposed to be and Bette didn’t sack Alice. Bette needs to remember how much Alice is a part of her life and after meeting Tina she kind of dumped her. It happens all the time, but true friends must remember the ones who have been with them through thick and thin and through the years. We can never dump our friends. Thanks Ally, great job!!
Another Great Chapter Ally!!!! Thank you
Sweet little forgiving Tina
“That’s a two way thing Bette” – I kept thinking of that during this chapter. Whenever I feel cheated or left out, I tell people! And I expect the same in kind because I’m not a mind reader. My opinion of Alice went up a little bit here, but I still think going the jackass route was a bad idea regardless of how much she was hurting.
GREAT chapter Ally, I was hoping that Tina would walk in or over hear some of their conversation and offer an olive branch, but then I remember that they were behind closed doors. There is a song we used to sing in Girl Scouts that said “Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other gold”. This is a line that they all would be good to know and remember. Maybe Tina could come down to check on Bette and talk for a little while. At least she and Alice could begin to make oe rebuild an in road before Alice continued her leave. After all they should remind Alice she is about to be an Honoary Auntie twice (It’s more special when you choose Children gaurdens) and part of the Villiage that they will need to raise their children. PPS :o).
OOooo…Tina holds a grudge!! Hey Mate! I didn’t get to comment on the chapter you posted in the other story, but that one and this one, were superb! I love that the communication here was honest, the cards were on the table, and they both got a say adn still ended up seeing the other’s point. Excellent! Thanks!
well that was great all around sweetie.thanks.
Excellent chapter. I appreciate their honesty and unvarnished comments. PPS.
Had to come out from the silent readers group to do a little happy dance upon seeing your posts! Can’t wait for a chapter of your other story.
Glad to see the two of them talking. My opinion of Alice went up a little after this chapter. She’s hurting and Bette is not seeing her side of things until now. I was hoping that Tina would come downstairs and overhear the conversation outside Bette’s office. Tina needs to take responsibility for the deterioration of Bette/Alice’s friendship as well. Great job, Ally!!
Very nice redemption of Alice and her relationship with Bette.
This is awesome!
Geez Alice that last comment was very cruel; imo T has been extremely bloody tolerant; I would have tongue lashed Alice to shreds long ago and too bad about Bette’s feelings…the choice is simple: your wife or your friend? It has to be the wife…grow up Alice, go, get a life….more soon pleasz, I’m on the edge of my seat ready for Bette to dump Alice and go upstairs to her lovely wife…in other words, never mind the crap; Alice is probably burnt out, nothing a good rest and some sun can’t cure espaecially on full pay…lucky her that Bette is still sane rather than pussy-whipped as Alice insists. PPS
Hey Ally, Great to have a new and brilliant post form you. Loved it. There was such angst and hurt at the beginning as Bette and Alice tried to sort things out. Finally some progress was made as them both were honest about everything that had gone on before. Many hurtful and hateful statements were made but Bette and ALice have been friends for a long time. This means that I think Bette is right in trying to get to the bottom of the matter and see if there is any way they can resurrect their realtionship. This is now hope as each is starting to see where it all went wrong. Cool to see these friends working at their friendship. Yes, Alice needs to wrok things through with Tina but they both have common ground in wanting what is best for Bette. I hope that they can get there. Awesome as ever. Many thanks for this insightful installment. Ally, you breath life into every word. Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
another great chapter ally ! hope you post again soon
Man that alice sure doesn’t know when to quit, even when she’s making headway, she puts her foot right back in it. The dialogue and dilemma between Alice/Bette/Shane is so perfectly portrayed though. We’ve definitely all had similar conversations at some point, at least I have. Thanks ally for all of your efforts providing us these stories, this one in particular. they’re awesome!
Super duper fabulous and great!!!
