The L Wing – chapter 232
“Hey CJ – sorry for ringing you at home “
“That’s okay Madam President – I was just watching TV “
“Anything good ?”
“An episode of Frasier that I must have seen five times before “
“We do things like that “
“Its comforting – it’s the final episode- when he’s on the plane reflecting on his time in Boston “
“Yeah – I know that one. CJ – how would you feel about taking over as Chief of Staff again ?”
There is a pause
“What about the existing one ?”
“I cannot reach her and stories are reaching my ears that frankly are chilling my blood”
“Things have been pretty bloody “
“Why didn’t you tell me ?”
CJ obviously pauses again
“CJ – I am trying not to put you in a difficult position but I need someone that I can trust to run the show. I need to find out what the hell is happening with Shane but I am certain that she needs to take some time away from the job “
“She won’t like it “
“She doesn’t get a say in it anymore “
“You are doing the right thing “
“Tell me what has been happening “
“It started with her cancelling Senior Staff meetings with you at a few seconds notice – literally we would all be standing waiting to come in and see you and she would just appear and say that it was cancelled and send us on our way. That happened three days in a row. Then she decided that before we could see you see had to see a memo outlining our issue – that became something that she used to deal with matters herself – whatever it meant that you didn’t see the problem “
“That ends here and now “
“I used to like to have senior staff meeting with you at the same time every day “
“Me too. CJ – you are now my Chief of Staff and we have a meeting at 9am tomorrow “
“You are in Virginia “
“I am coming back tomorrow – as soon as possible in fact – I can’t have this going on”

Awesome – your writing always delights and inspires me.
Thanks, ally. ITA w/annaluis. I never tire of this story.
This is gonna be tough on Bette, but she’s heading down the right path to set this all straight. Thanks for the update-looking forward to the next chapter.
Bette needs to find a good exterminator to rid Shane of her head worms.
I feel sorry for Bette but also for Shane. I hope there is a way back to normal. Thanks for posting. It’s really amazing that after so many chapters a) I am not even a little tired of the story and b)there is so much open that I don’t see a end – and that makes me really happy. Thanks for all you have done and all you will do.
look out the prez is in the house and doing some cleaning!! poor shane now why did carmen get in touch with tina??? :)PPS
Bette is really struggling right now–glad Tina is so understanding. I wish she could forgive Kit–we’re all idiots at 14 :)
Loyalty may be the most important attribute of staff, it works better that way.
This so sucks for Bette. Bette is doing the right thing by trying to help Shane. Thanks Ally!!!!
Times will be tuff for the Portards, in more ways then one, Tina will have to tell Bette about her discovery too…
tough times, demand tough action Bette,…pps
Ohhh Bette gonna kick Shane’s ass lol!
