I get lost in my thoughts and it is not until my stomach starts making rumbling noises that it dawns on me how damn hungry I am. It is also after noon and I have been sitting here for over two hours. I get up, drain my brandy and walk through the house. Tina has her own office a few rooms from mine. I open the door and glance inside. She is sitting at her desk with Ella contently suckling on her breast. She is talking on the phone – I cross my arms and watch her
“Yes – tell everyone to head home now – there is nothing heroic about being in the office after noon on Christmas Eve – I am not Scrooge — yeah I wish I could have been there for the secret Santa – the ankle is fine — yes – today is our wedding anniversary – two wonderful years — we will be back around the 3rd of January — no — not heard a word — I didn’t see it coming — its something that they need to work out for themselves — okay – you have a fantastic Christmas – give Mark a huge First Lady kiss from me — bye “
She switches off the phone and puts it down – she kisses Ella on the head
“So Ella – what in the name of the Lord is going on now ?”
I cough and she looks around
“Hello Bette – I am multi-tasking “
“I can see that – how hungry is she ?”
“Very – what about you ?”
“Starving – I have been thinking – but what I should have been thinking was – hell I am hungry “
“I didn’t have breakfast either “
“TINA ! “
“Missing a meal won’t hurt “
“Yes it will – you are feeding Ella – you have to take on extra vitamins and minerals so you can pass them onto her “
“I know the lecture Bette “
I go across and sit on the edge of the desk and smile at her
“I know that I nag you – but it is because of how much I care for you “
“I know that – we both know that you love us “
I lean forward and kiss her – then I kiss Ella who is still feeding. She gives me a look
“Brandy ?”
“Yes “
“On an empty stomach ?”
“I know – that is when I realised how hungry I am, Tina – I need to get my head sorted out. There is so much for me to comprehend. I think that the fog is starting to clear. Maybe being snowed in is a good thing. I am getting on top of everything. I feel better Tina “
“That is good – why don’t you make a start on lunch while I finish off feeding our daughter “
“Can we have an afternoon nap when she does ?”
Tina smiles “ Really ?”
“I want to lie between your thighs and lick you until you scream “
“Go and feed me and I will consider your request “
I kiss both of them and head into the kitchen. I turn on the radio and listen to the weather reports – several of the main roads into the state are impassable. Am I going to have to call the Governor and discuss calling in the national guard ? I am pondering my job while I am fixing a plate full of sandwiches. Tina comes in – she looks serious. I raise an eyebrow
“Everything okay ?”
She sighs and sits down “ Hell no “
“What ?”
“I have spoken to Carmen – she didn’t show up for work today “
“Is everything alright ? Is it Shane or Sophie ?”
“No – nothing like that “
“Well ?”
“Carmen was full of apologies “
“For once “
“She had been hoping that I would not check up on my staff “
“Dangerous assumption “
“Exactly “
“And ?”
“She had the same shower surprise this morning that you did “
Tina face tells me there is more to it than a reunion between Shane and Carmen – as much as that would be a great early Christmas present
“Yes ?”
“It wasn’t Shane giving her the thrill – she has found someone else “

It’s been amazing to see how the McCain insiders have ripped Palin to shreds, I’ve never seen anything like it before (Nixon’s crew used to ridicule Agnew, but that pales in comparison). Of course they have no one to blame but themselves for putting her on the ticket. I can understand wanting a scapegoat, but man, this is an incredible display. And the fact that after bouncing between 5 of 6 different schools to get a journalism degree and then being utterly unable to answer the question “what newspapers and magazines do you read?” (that ‘gotcha media’) lends some credence to her being THAT uniformed. Oy! Whether she gets to come back on the national stage depends on how clueless and narrow the GOP wants to remain and how successful she can be at reinventing herself. Talk about deficit spending! Yeah, Alaska has wolves and bears, but the polar bears are swimming for their lives, the brown and black bears are tucking themselves in for the winter, and none of them will be able to get at her if she only hunts from a helicopter. So sporting of her. In the lower 48 we call that shooting fish in a barrel.
OMG who is carmen having fun with now? they have only been apart for a few months? what the hell is wrong with shane? :)PPS
That’s too bad, I guess Shane messed it up pretty badly, I love them together though and I hope they find their way to each other again. Bette and Tina are going to have so much fun while snowing in, and it is going to give them the rest that they need and some alone time together as a family. Thanks Ally, I like your idea about how a perfect snowing in should be and yes it’s heaven on earth. If you ask me the most amazing things that you can have in winter are food and sex. Post soon
Snowed in and really hot sex…Sound good to me…
Bette really doesn’t know what or why about her mother’s past. As powerful as Melvin is/was, she could have been forced to stay away from Bette. It’s really a sad situation. I don’t think I could “let it go.” I would be finding out everything I could, but it would have to be done very discreetly with Bette being the President and all. Shane is a mess and so is Carmen. I feel sorry for Sophie. Greeeaaat story Ally! More please!
Who is Carmen new friend??? Hope its not a staff member. That would really put Bette in a fit. She would be hell on wheels. Please post asap thanks
well, its not that quick is it? Shane’s been in-trouble and trouble for some time. Lovely chapter. PPS
That was great!
Carmen has a new friend. This should be fun. Glad Bette is coming around. Thanks PPS
this is still my favourite fic on these boards, absolutely love it…whose carmens shower buddy then? pps
My Lord, Carmen w/o Shane and already she has found someone new. Damn that was fast. If she has found someone to warm her toes that quickly, then how long were she and Shane having problems before anyone else knew. What a bad revelation. Great chapter AllyE.
Not at all a bad way to spend Christmas and Anniversary.
Tell Bette to leave the governor alone, calling the National Guard is the governor’s job. Did Bette’s mother run burlesque houses featuring bubble and fan dancers? Just plain old strippers? Gentile and upscale supper clubs? A little of both? Did her mother think she was doing Bette a favor by staying out of her life? Did Bette’s mother have an attraction to women? What’s the deepest snow you’ve ever dealt with personally, Ally?
Oh, who who who can Carmen’s new plaything be? Bette is going to dig into her mothers past, she won’t be able to help herself. Great chapter, as always.
