“BUT don’t push her when she is growing up – don’t heap pressure on her because the President’s daughter
has to be top of the class in everything she does “
“Is that addressed to me or to Bette?”
“It’s for both of you. I look back on Helena’s childhood and I have a lot of regrets – lots of things that I wish I had done and wish I had not done. At the time you do what you think is right for your child but in retrospect – errors are costly “
“Helena is doing fine “
“She is a daughter who I don’t think I deserved. The rehabilitation has come from Alana who has been so good for her and also you and Bette. It would have been very easy for the President and the First Lady to dissociate themselves from a self confessed alcoholic and drug taker. It was what the party fully intended to do but you and Bette were there for her “
“Neither of us would have walked away from Helena “
“She was your ex and that was in the press and it must have embarrassed you – and she was a thorn in Bette’s side “
“Bette was insecure because of Helena and me but she doesn’t have that fear any more. They have formed a friendship that think is good for both of them “
Peggy sips her wine and considers her food before speaking
“It was a terrible blow to her ego when she stood down and she did fear being ostracised. There were a lot of people who she considered as her friends who cut her off without a word when all the publicity started. I think they expected that it was what everyone would do but you and Bette stayed loyal and you both helped her – her friendship with you and Bette means everything to her”
“If we didn’t feel the same way she would not be Ella’s God mother “
“She takes that role very seriously as well “
“And she has inherited a lot of nephews and nieces “

this story without a doubt still remains to be my favourite! strangely a part of me loves it when they argue and bettes bull headedness comes out but i’m so glad that the tina you write is no walk over! thanks for another great chapter ally pps!
Uh-oh, me thinks she just said absolutely the wrong thing. POTUS is in for a tongue lashing.
AllyE, one thing about the show before I comment on the story. The show should have been stopped with the end of S5, at least it would have looked as though “our girls” would have been together and very happy to be back together. The episode of this past Sunday never should have been written never mind being put on tape for the world to see. I try not to voice my opinion on the work of IC but gloves off now, the woman seems to have lost any marbles she ever had. I realize alll this is leading up to Jenny’s offing but seriously, who cares. Enough of that. This chapter of the story really showed how much a butt hole Bette is being to Tina and everyone else. Maybe the research on her mother has just been too much for her but she needs to stop taking it out on Tina, who on the whole, is being very tolerant and understanding of Bette’s moods and the things she says and does. However, I think this new revelation of Bette wanting to not take Tina to Dublin is the straw that will break the camel’s back. I think if Tina reacts at all to this, she just might opt for her and Ella to go to her parent’s house while Bette is gone to Ireland. Bette really does need to extricate her head from her butt. Can’t imagine what she is thinking and to not have gone to see Ella at least once while Tina was gone was a really bad idea. then she admitted it to Tina and said she was working and couldn’t find the time. I’m very surprised that Tina did not just walk out of the oval when she said that, I was actually waiting for her to do so. In your authors’ notes, the rhyme said she was pushed into the pool. Well, Tina should take Bette out for a walk and push her butt into the pool. I know that she can not do that to the President with Secret Service watching but damn it’d be tempting. Thanks for another great chapter, AllyE. Post when you can.

Ok–Bette is even ticking me off! The problem is I see it, is she’s jealous of Tina’s popularity right now. Instead of being proud of her wife, she’s acting like a spoiled brat!!! PPS
Oddly, I am not annoyed with Bette. I think there is a lot going on in her life, and Tina has to be as understanding of Bette and Bette has been in the past of Tina. Bette is still very very raw from the idea that people have been hiding things from her that she is jumping at shadows… and distancing herself from those she loves most in order to prevent it. I do hope that Tina realises this and tries to organise a weekend away for the 3 of them to be together. I think they could benefit from it.
I agree with Deean. Earlier in the story, Bette was the one being understanding and caring for Tina who sometimes acted like a b***tch. Don’t approve of Bette’s current behavior, but I think I can understand it given everything she’s going through. Anyway, she’s now talking to Tina, and acknowledging what she did wrong. so there’s hope, uh? Hope to read more very soon :)
Hold on to you beautiful ass Madam Presedent,You have just stirred up one Alpha Tina. Time for bette to call in the Nat”l Guard.
Oh Sh*T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tina needs to do something to open Bette’s eyes!
uh-oh looks like Bette is in for it this time. PS
Well Bette has a lot going on that she can’t fix with Shane and her mom, etc. But why is she taking it all out on Tina? Bette needs to get her head back in the game. Thanks for posting!
Time to launch Peggy at the President. 10…9…8…
ok, now i AM sure POTUS has definitely pss’d her wife off by suggesting tina be pulled for the dublin trip. heck. i am angry!!anywy, love your story and just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to share with us. uhhh… am me first??? YAY!!!
oh boy… just when i thought bette couldn’t do anything worse! love how hard tina is trying to be supportive without giving in too much. can’t wait for the next chapter and tina’s reaction to the dublin trip!
Hey AllyE, MAny thank yous for another fabulous chapter. I loved Peggy’s comment “At the moment her head is up her ass.” Just so Peabody. It was interesting to have Tina and Peggy sharte a moment. I do think Peggy has nailed a few issues and given Tina some food for thought. Tina’s return hoome and seeking Bette out with Ella was so precious. That little girl really can quench all of her mommies arguments. Good to have Bette admit her part in this one and be able to try to sort things out. Bette and Tina are best when they are talking things through. They can do anything they want as long as they continue to communicate and listen to those, who care from them, around them. Can’t wait to find out how Tee reacts to this revelation. Fingers crossed they can work it through. More please of this wonderful writing. From Your Loyal Fan.
Oh no drama coming, Tina is kicking some ass now. Please post more, thanks!
i think bette is jealous because tina popularity is higher than bette’s!:)PPS
