“Let’s see, the charcuterie came from Board & Table. The cake balls from Darla’s Delectables and the wine from Victor’s.”
“Wow, I’ve never heard of any of these places,” Tina laughed nervously as she took another sip.
The wine was deliciously smooth, fruity and robust. A little too smooth. Tina decided one glass was going to be enough. She didn’t want to overindulge and make a fool out of herself.
“No?”
“No. If it’s not between here and the set, then I probably haven’t been there. My hours are crazy and there’s really no time for me to venture out.”
Bette wasn’t sure if she was pleased that Tina hadn’t been out exploring the town or sad because it appeared she only went for runs and to work.
“Oh. Well, it’s nothing fancy. Just some noshes.”
Tina looked at the glass in her hands. Now she needed something to do to distract her.
“Can I fix you a plate?” Tina sweetly asked.
“Yes. Thank you. Just no…”
“Olives.” Tina finished Bette’s sentence as she sat the glass down on the coffee table.
They gazed at each other for a heartbeat.
“Right.” Bette slightly snickered.
In the past, Tina would’ve made one big plate for them to share. She would’ve straddled Bette and they would’ve ended up feeding each other and wiping crumbs from the corner of their mouths and lightly touching the other’s lips and getting lost in each other’s eyes and Bette’s hands would’ve roamed up and down Tina’s back and down her ass and eventually settled on her hips as she gently massaged her sides.
They would’ve shared one large glass of wine and kissed between sips and bites. They would’ve whispered quietly and giggled and nibbled on each other’s necks and lobes. Tina would’ve put her head on top of Bette’s and Bette would’ve hugged her tighter. Bette would’ve eased Tina’s shirt up signaling for her to take it off. Then she would’ve kissed the crevice between Tina’s breasts. They would’ve forgotten all about the food and got lost in each other.
Tina missed that closeness so much. She tried forcing it before hoping Bette would let her back in. Unfortunately, it did the opposite and Tina wasn’t going to force anything this time. She was going to be patient. Her job was to create an environment where Bette felt safe. And that’s exactly what she was going to do.

I absolutely love this chapter. And the beginning is hysterical. I laughed out loud at the middle finger emojis. Poor James. I wanted to mention how much I like your writing style. You have a lot of talent. Alice trying to dig her way out is a case in point. And Kit’s lectures: “Pray. It’s already in motion. We can’t tell them now cuz it will blow up in all of y’all’s faces and they may never get back together. Keep your fingers crossed and pray. Oh and don’t do anything else to “help” them.” Kit used air quotes as she said the word help.” So well written. And of course the conversation between Bette and Tina via food. Very sensual. This is such a good story. So happy Bette left her door open.
TOTALLY AGREE!!
Poor James is right. LOL! I adore how protective he is of Bette and I really like the brother/sister vibe he has with Alice.
Thank you so much. This has been fun to write. I haven’t written anything this long ever. So it really is testing my writing abilities. That’s why some chapters take longer than others. It took me forever to get the part right last chapter about the flashback of why Bette wanted to break-up with Tina but I absolutely love how it turned out.
Kit is the mother figure of the group. I’m glad she reprimanded them and I’m glad she gave them pie afterwards. LOL!
Let’s see what happens with these doors.
Kit speaks her truth, holding NO grudges. She is PRICELESS at understanding the often crazy, zanny, misteps of her Gen X,Y,Z,”framily”.
So Y not pass the pie?!!!!
Very nice chapter…. so proud that Tina remained patient during the talks. They are progressing… it seems slow, but the fact that they could sit and be civil and enjoy a meal and do some talking is indeed progress. I had not realized that it had already been 5 months since Tina left for Vancouver. I am glad that Tina told Bette about her “offer” and request that she base in Vancouver. And I also like that she told Bill a definitive “no” – not going to happen. This should mean something to Bette when she thinks about it. Vancouver evidently was never going to be a permenant place for Tina to live. Too bad Tina left like she did. If she had taken the time to have a reasonable conversation about why she was going, they might not have the problems they are having at them moment. But what’s done is done. Tina is too impetuous for her own good. She needs to think things through and consider the ramifications of her major moves in her life. The fact that she does not trust Bette is a factor they need to work on as well. Bette has reason not to trust Tina. But Tina’s accusation of Bette cheating without some further evidence than catching her and Candace kissing and not getting an explanation and then leave town without notice for as long as a year? That is huge. But the fact that Tina has turned down a plum position in Vancouver should be a step in the direction of getting Bette back.
This is really a rather nice story….. actually I love Kiki Smith. We should all have a Kiki Smith in our lives.
Cannot wait to see how the rest of the week goes….
Me too. Tina is really trying. I think the inner dialogue helps too. That trust issue is tricky. They have a lot more talking to do especially about the miscarriage. And that is going to so emotional. Gives me chills just thinking about it.
I’m glad you’re enjoying the story. Thank you so much for reading. And yes, KiKi is a hoot. She has more planned. Hopefully it doesn’t backfire.
Again, your writing is amazing. I love these characters and how much you flesh them out. Your writing skills really provide a bigger/better sense of who these women are and how they relate (& related in the past).
Thank you, I love the stories you create about my favorite couple!
Thank you so much. I’m glad you’re enjoying it. It has definitely been fun to write.
I love your story!
Brilliant writing style, you have a real gift and i am happy you share that with us!
The first page was so funny!
The talk, Tina doing her best to give Bette the time and space but inwardly had to hold in, something she had a lot of trouble to do but she did it! Loved how Tina did the simple things she always did like putting the plate with small foods for Bette and for Bette remembering with fondness about it and a little more
It’s a beginning and for Bette to shout out her wants but not being sure or love or hurt will win, it was honest to Tina.
The last part gave me hope, the door is open to each other but Tina has to be patient and Bette be open about her feelings of hurt.
“Tina turned and walked away down the hall. Bette watched her disappear into the room, leaving the door open. In the past when they were upset with each other and on the rare occasions slept in different bedrooms, they always left the door open. Bette explained to Tina one time after they’d made up that although they might be upset with each other, she hoped they’d never be closed off from each other and that was why she left the door open.
Bette kept looking at the open door for a while before going to the extra room. Bette kept that door open too.”
Look forward to read the next chapter!
It is a beginning. They have a long way to go. But they are both trying and that is so important. The doors are open. Now what? That’s the big question. I hope they keep talking.
Brilliant, loved it, more please.
SG
Thank you so much!
They’re doing a fine job of accepting the joyful, soulful friendship and sexual memories while admitting that the soul-hurt that Tina brought to their “lovers world” is still an over-powering memory.
But! The door is OPEN for both of them. The foundation is being rebuilt . . . Slowly
The door is open! And that is huge for them. I’m excited to see what happens next. lol
