At this,
“She did.” Yet here I am, still having my doubts.
“But she’s still going?”
“I realized that I can’t expect her to not work just to assuage my fears.”
“She would, you know; if you asked.”
This I know is true. But that doesn’t mean I’d ever ask it, nor ever feel that I had the right to ask. “But what I really wanted was an opinion – am I doing the right thing?”
“In letting her travel?”
So perhaps I should back up a step on this one. “Actually, in letting her move in.”
“She’s moving in?”
“Sort of.”
“What’s sort of moved in?”
That’s a really good question. I’m setting the ground rules, and I’m not even sure. “Well, I thought before she leaves, maybe she should stay at the house.”
“And she of course said yes.”
“Of course.” After confirming with me that what I said was really what I meant. And I think it was. At least, I thought so at the time.
“Dare I ask what the other response was?”
“Well, besides being reminded that the house isn’t sound-proofed?”
“Yeah.” My daughter. But I have to love her. “Aside from that, she was oddly neutral on the idea.”
“Which for a teenager is pretty good.”
“Which for that teenager is very good.”
“She’s winning ya over, TK.”
Leave it to
“You guess she is? Why do I hear a ‘but’ on the end of that statement?”
“Okay, this is going to sound wrong.”
“Another implied ‘but.’”
Yes, Alice. Thanks for pointing that out. “Last night, while we were together.”
“How together?”
“Together. On the couch. Fully clothed.”
“Bette received a phone call.”
“That’s Porter standard-operating, and all.”
“Right, but she went and took it in the kitchen. It was strange. She was talking about getting someone out of the way, someone female, but it wasn’t clear what she was discussing.”
A totally strange look came over
“Do you know something about this, Al?”
“Um, the phone call last night at about?”
“A little after nine?”
“Yeah, that one. That was me.”
“What?” Alice; sometimes you amaze even me. “You called Bette? C’mon,
“Hiding?”
“You know you can’t keep secrets, out with it.”
“Well,”
“A surprise.”
“For you.”
“For me.”
“Yeah.”
Something about this didn’t quite sound right. “A surprise.”
“Technically, I think at this point, that classification as an unexpected occurrence could be questioned. But, could you at least pretend?”
A surprise.
I don’t like surprises. Bette knows I don’t like surprises. And why would anyone keeping a secret tell
“Please, TK?”
My friends also know I can’t resist a direct request. “I’ll be surprised,” I said. But I really hoped that this wouldn’t be the case.

hmmm…a surprise planned with friends (good!)…but Tina goes berzerk (bad)…. The imaginiation reels at the possibilities…
Alice keeps a secret? Cold fusion is next. Thanks!
Really enjoying this story. Hope Jess will allow Bette to live with them peacefully and not cause too much of a ruckus. She is a teen but surely she see how much they love each other, maybe not. Alice can not keep a secret. Can’t wait to see what the secret is. post soon please. Thanks.
I have to admit, I’m like Tina, I don’t like surprises; not even good ones; and more often than not – someone will let the cat out of the bag. Good post as always. Now, I’m worried for Alice, what will she tell Porter about the surprise???? Thanks for posting.
Love it love it love it
Tina should try talking to Bette instead of Alice, I think…On a different note: The quality control department may have gotten a bit used to your high standards of writing, and therefore missed the sequence-thingy. I wouldn’t hold a grudge :-)
pseud this story stays one of my favourite. always looking forward of a next chapter. thanks.
and why is tina talking to alice about it? shouldn’t she talk to bette? communicate, don’t let the opportunity to get back together with someone you love pass you by
Tina should be telling Bette all this,not Alice. Tina should know that Bette would never hurt her again. If Tina would get off her hihorse and think. thanks
Thanks for writing. I always love when I see multiple chapters waiting for me.
I love surprises! What’s the surprise? Tell us before 85!!!!!!!
ok heres my analysis type thing:good: bette planning a surprise for TKbad: we dont know what it could be…really bad: also dangerousy close to chapter 85 *dum dum duuuum…*cant wait for more tho… seriously…
A surprise? I like surprises. So I won’t guess it. I’d rather let you lead us and reveal it later. I’m sure you can always bring us surprises and amazement as always.Thanks again for your great effort and excellent writing.
Heehee, am I the first this time? I really enjoy your story. I’ll write more later after I read the chapter twice. =)
humm..im totally lost here..lol..your amazing pseud..have the tallent to totally mixed up with us..lol..cant wait for more thanks :o)
Thanks so much for another chapter. Alice and Tina so funny together, I always like Tina’s internal dialogue. I’m intrigued about this surprise…
WHEW
Coming out of lurking….Great job! You’re killing me here. :)
*waves at jks* loved your comments girl.pseud does keep it fresh. knowing it was al should help but then we have chappy 85 and tina going ape shit. hmmm. well she says she doesnt like surprises but dayum if she knows then she should not have a 2 x 4 up her ass. well baby bring it on. cuz we all know bette would never hurt tina again. so this should be way past interesting.
P, your dialogue (both internal and between each character) is simply amazing and divine (to use your word). ;-) Thanks for posting two chapters this weekend!“We’re lunching without the Divine Ms. Porter. For that reason alone, there must be a scoop” – always the perceptive reporter, that Alice. And Bette is surely divine, indeed.“I don’t like surprises. Bette knows I don’t like surprises. And why would anyone keeping a secret tell Alice?” This was funny. Even though Alice will spoil the surprise, hopefully, this conversion will help Tina calm her fears and help build her trust for Bette again (as I’m sure this surprise is a good surprise). Glad that she’s talking it out and putting a stop to her imagination running wild. I hope that with this surprise, Tina’s insecurities will be further dampened by Bette’s love. Well, Rome wasn’t built in one day. So, please take your time and continue with this great path, pseud.Hmmm, I can’t wait to see Jess’ POV on Bette’s staying at the house for the next couple of days. Is she really “neutral on the idea”? Let’s hope that Bette is winning Jess over as well.
Yeah, so pseud…I think the missing chapter was intentional, because you correct actual errors or omissions as soon as you’re made aware of them. I’m very interesting in your sequencing these past few chapters…it makes for some intrigue that we might not otherwise be a party to. Keeps it fresh.
