They were covered in blankets and Bette made sure her girlfriend was properly tucked in. In moments, Tina was sleeping beside her. Bette leaned her head against the top of Tina’s and she dozed off too.
A black, Audi hotel car met them when they arrived in Toronto. The driver was a Jamaican immigrant named Eddie who greeted them warmly and offered them warm chai tea and blueberry scones for the journey to the hotel. They accepted and nibbled as Eddie shared stories about the city and upcoming events. As the car rolled smoothly along the road, they passed mounds of white snow.
Tina was leaning against Bette, not wanting to be separate from her. Bette squeezed her hand and she said excitedly, “Babe, look at the snow!”
Tina laughed. “Yeah, I see it a lot. Too much in fact. When we shoot up in Vancouver or New York, it is hell on production.”
The blonde watched the wide brown eyes of the woman at her side and nestled closer to her, content in their shared space.
“You ladies on your honeymoon?” asked Eddie.
The lovers shared a smile before Tina replied, “No. I guess you could call it a honeymoon of sorts. Life has been…stressful recently. Why do you ask?”
Eddie smiled at them in the rearview mirror. “You look happy. Most couples sit far apart. On their cell phones or in their own worlds. You two seem eager to spend time together. That’s what I usually see when people are on their honeymoon.”
Bette kissed Tina’s cheek before her eyes went back to roving over the passing white mounds.
They finally arrived at the Omni King Edward Hotel in downtown Toronto. Eddie handed them off to a capable door attendant and they were escorted inside to check-in. After a brief ride to the 6th floor, they found their room at the end of the hall. It was decorated with an air of British style: a beautiful, king-sized bed with black and white photos of Big Ben, a London double-decker bus, and the Tower Bridge adorning the striped wallpapered walls.
There were a few armchairs around a seating area with a full English tea set.

Thank you for their heart-to-heart talk in the previous chapter and this much-needed escape/break from all the drama but I can’t help but feel this is the calm before another raging storm. Yep, I’m bracing myself for more heart-wrenching twists and turns. You know, I love thrilling, stomach-churning rollercoaster rides and reading this story–with all its highs and lows, twists, turns and inversions–is like an emotional The Incredible Hulk ride.
Your talent, creativity and generosity in sharing this story is much appreciated, MTS. Thanks a lot for this chapter and this story, MTS!!!
Nice Chapter which I enjoyed thank you.
I just know though that I am being lulled into a false sense of security here and am about to be plunged back into Drama!
Can’t wait!
Please post soon

This appears to be a lovely way to spend Christmas!!! Bette and Tina will now get to know one another in their 2019 personas. Fun in the snow…. Shopping for winter clothes on Christmas Eve? wow…Hope they purchased a 2nd suitcase for their purchases.
The conversation almost got to that first breakfast they had where Bette knew exactly what to order for Tina in their first meeting. I wonder how Bette will explain that one.
Things are too quiet on the family front. That can only mean trouble is brewing. I’m sure they are drawing up the battle plans in preparation for the pending divorce. But if there is real trouble, they will hear from Joyce Wishinia. Hopefully they will get through Christmas before the battle starts.
Thanks for this lovely chapter. I am glad to see Bette and Tina get some time to do some real bonding.
I am always ready for more…..you are a great writer…post when you can.
Lovely chapter. But…..I’m waiting on the proverbial other shoe to drop. Drama is ahead I believe.
Thanks for posting. It seems like a much needed time-out for Tina and Bette.
Most unsettling quote of the chapter: “What if it doesn’t work? The plan I’ve been working on. I’m just worried.”
Yes, I’m very worried too! Was it too early to file the divorce? Does Team Tina have enough stuff on Henry to have the divorce go through?
“What if I forgot to consider some major loophole?” Oh my, I hope not! It is too silent on the Young-Kennard front. I just hope that Tina’s PI and Joyce have everything under control. They have to prevail over the evil Empire K. Would be very satisfying if Dad K. started a counterattack that would go so wrong that his empire ends up severely damaged.
But yeah, I’m with SG, it’s a calm-before-the-storm feeling, as if the drama is about to begin again.
Waiting with bated breath for the next chapter, MTS.
LOL…don’t you guys trust me? Always thinking the worst that a storm is coming.
maybe there is one.
maybe there isn’t.
:)
More to come. Thanks for reading along!!!
Oh, we do trust you! But we can’t help but notice your talent and your occasional proclivity to intersperse some unexpected drama into your chapters. ;-)
Keep ’em coming, we’re prepared.
cheers
So if Tina still don’t hear anything from her father of Henry about divorce paper – maybe it’s not too bad, maybe Henry just didn’t receive them?
Bette doesn’t 100% trust Tina but you want us to trust you.. lol ok we are in this deep no turning back now no matter the ride thank you. I still see not touchy touchy… lol you know work is tomorrow… lol
This is all going too well. I don’t like the purchases they made. Credit card activity is the easiest way to track someone. I know Bette loves Tina but I don’t quite trust her. You say we have to trust you to keep our girls together. Ok, but the Detective in me, senses drama! Thanks for posting!
