The Roommates – 2nd Dimension: Chapter 40
Bette found it for her and completed Dana’s thought.
“Inadequate?”
“Yeah. And also threatened. Like I’m not good enough for her. Like I’m just the girl she’s with to pass the time until something better comes along.”, said Dana.
Bette looked out at the ducks swimming on the surface of the pond, her mind marinating in her friend’s words.
“Have you talked to her at all? Have you discussed how you feel?”, asked Bette.
Dana took a bite of her green pistachio ice cream and shook her head, her eyes following Bette’s gaze out to the swimming fowl.
“No. Not yet.”
Bette looked toward her tennis playing comrade, “You have to talk to her, Dane. You guys have to talk.”
Dana nodded, concentrating on the ducks. “I know. I just.I don’t even know where to start.”
Bette thought about this for a moment, chewing absently on a chunk of cookie dough.
“Hmmm. Ask her how she would define your relationship. Start from there. It kinda takes the pressure off of you.”, she said.
A slow smile teased the corners of Dana’s lips and she finally looked over at Bette.
“Yeah? You think that’ll get the ball rolling?”, asked Dana.
Bette smiled and nodded in return. “I do. And you know Alice loves to talk. Maybe she’ll just put everything out there and you won’t have to fill in the blanks. But you have to figure out what you want, Dane. If she asked you if you wanted a relationship, what would you say?”.
Dana smile began to descend and she looked back out at the water. “I don’t know.”
The girls were quiet for a moment; each wrapped up in their own thoughts and finishing up their ice cream cones.
It was Bette’s soft voice that broke the silence. “You’ll figure it out.”
Dana sighed deeply and replied, “I hope so.”
“You will.”
“Bette?”, asked Dana.
“Yeah?”
“How did you and Tina get to be where you are? I meanhow did you know she was even into women?”

YAY! MTS is back! *does a little happy dance* Great chapter, once again! :)
Glad your back. I always appreciate a story where B&T compliment each other. It just always seems no matter what the obstacles or problems they just always need to end up where they belong, together. I also enjoy that this is them at a younger age, cos you just have to figure that no matter when they met, that spark would always be there. That spark between them, I thinks that’s what always keeps us wanting more.
Nice to see an update MTS.This is one of my favs.I hope they do morph into the women we know on tv but maybe w/o the cheating.Please continue when you can.
Welcome back! I hope life slows down for you. You know how much I love this story. I would enjoy some more Dana and Alice in the story.
It felt like a California drought without your story but now the sun is out again! It’s always wonderful when you post (I do keep a constant eye out for your story!) – so thanks for taking the time to keep this story going. Your writing is flawless and who wouldn’t love what you’ve done with B&T!!!
Excellent! welcome back…luv ur story…psyched to read the update…Post Soon!.
Hey MTS! I’ve missed you!! No worries about not having time to write. Shtuff happens. I’m just grateful that you remember us when you have the time! ;) Sweet chapter. I hope Bette’s able to help Dana sort out her feelings. Thanks for exploring their friendship.
Glad to have you back. I’m still here, still enjoying the story. Hope life is treating you well. Can’t wait for your next post.
Perfect as usual! It’s good to see that Dana has Bette to help her through things. The club should be really fun and interesting. Can’t wait for more :)
I love your story have from the word go. I just hope that B&T can survive the test of time
cute. loved Bette & Tina, they seem so solid and going strong.
MTS,
As always you capture a simple event so beautifully.
The graceful and eloquent words that you gave Bette brought out a side not often displayed in the fan fictions; Bette the matchmaker. The whole “We are going to deploy a mission to ascertain the disposition and intent of one Miss Lara Perkins…” is delightfully replaying in my head.
Great to see the nurturing and gentle pushing of Dana towards Alice.
Only your imagination knows where this romance will lead.
Thank you for giving me this magnificent gift and allowing me along on this journey
Please post soon as the week seems to drag after reading a chapter and waiting for the next installment.
Your Loyal Fan.
always a pleasure to see a new chapter posted by you.. ;)Thank you..
Maybe Dana will meet someone and give Alice the kick in the pants she needs.
thank you so much for posting another chapter. i just love this story and find myself constantly wondering where you are gonna take our girls next. keep up the good work! And post soon…
I’m glad I checked this site before going home for the day. Now I can dream about this while driving. It’s ok, if you don’t have time to update as often as you would like, but please continue this when ever you can. I love the story and the connection B&T have. Kiitos!
I wonder if they (B&T) end up together in the end. Lots of college romances fade with time as the principals go on with their futures. What does the future hold for B&T? Everything you’ve written seems to imply that they go on together, into the future life that we know as theirs in WeHo.
I was just speculating, overlaying this story with the template of real life. What if this was a college romance and they ended up with other people? What if this story was the flashback of a middle-aged B or T, recalling fond memories?
Yes, it’s gloomy here today. There’s no sun. Forget everything I posted above. Carry on!
Thanks!
I am avid reader (albeit infrequent commenter) of your story. I especially love the relationshipe between B&T that you have created. That absolute trust in someone and openness to someone happens only when one is young. The heart gets a bit wary after that. You capture that young intense innocnet passionate love so well. Thanks.
what a great chappy. just so informative but easy on the mind. makes you have to happy feelings all over. sure have been missed mts. so glad you remembered your faithful readers. cant wait for another one. like techie said what does the future hold for them. but hell its bette and tina right? thanks.
Yeah, she’s back! Great update!
as long as you write I read it and I’m happy. I can be patient when it’s necessary *wink* Nice flashback to B&T beginning. Take care!
