    Author Notes:

    Rebuilding

    She thought of Bette as she peered through the glass in her hand and saw the sun on the other side. What could be so important that they all spend the day together according to her itinerary? Sometimes Bette was a mystery and other times she was an open book. The only ways in which she knew Bette anymore resembled more of a mystery. Tina glanced at one of the photo albums on the coffee table and laughed when she saw a picture of her, Bette and Alice from many years ago. They were so young and vibrant. Tina wondered what life would have been like if she had stopped Bette from going to NY all those years ago. As she looked at her watch again, she slowly rolled out of the chair to get ready for dinner, finding herself slightly and surprisingly nervous.

    ***

    Here we are. Bette said as she parked the car on the street. After she put money in the meter, she met the gazes of her friends. They looked puzzled as they glanced around.

    What is this, Bette? Shane asked.

    Is this where were eating? Dana asked as she saw a couple of restaurants down the road.

    Well… yes, but not until later. Theres something else I want to show you.

    Once again, they found themselves following Bettes lead. She stopped several blocks up the road by an empty building that appeared to be an old furniture store with wide and tall windows facing them.

    This is it. Bette beamed.

    Er… Alice scowled. An old run down store?

    That may be what it looks like now. But do you know what this is going to be in a couple of months?

    Um… a new furniture store? Dana asked.

    Bette rolled her eyes. No. She rummaged in her purse and pulled out two keys. Bending over, she struggled to get them in the lock, but finally she opened the door and motioned for everyone to enter.

    This, Bette began as she closed the door behind them, is going to be a new art gallery.

    Nobody spoke. Instead they looked around at the open space surrounding them. It was a lot bigger on the inside than how it looked on the outside. Their footsteps echoed on the hard wood floor and the sunlight poured through the windows, exposing the dust that danced through the air.

    Bette? Um… what gallery? Shane finally asked, her heart thumping in her chest, even though she already knew the answer.

    Mine.

    ***

    Tina was the first to arrive at the restaurant and she was seated at the reserved table. From where she sat, she could see her friends slowly walking towards her. They were laughing and talking excitedly, as Tina could see. She sighed, upset that she missed out on another day with her friends. She hoped it would be worth it eventually.

    Bette sat herself across from Tina and Alice sat next to Bette as if wanting to have the perfect seat to see Tinas reaction to Bettes news.

    Hi Tina. They all chorused.

    What are you all in such a good mood about? Tina raised an eyebrow, suddenly nervous.

    Maybe well tell you our secret if you tell us yours. Bette sassed, though she was half serious and Tina could tell.

    Tina slowly shook her head. I guess this will be a quiet dinner then?

    Dana and Shane laughed, knowing Alice couldnt keep her mouth shut for that long.

    Just tell her. Alice prodded Bette. Dana and Shane nodded in agreement.

    Well… I just showed them something down the street. Bette began, choosing her words carefully and keeping her eyes on Tina.

    What is it? Tina asked.

    A building thats going to be redone.

    So…?

    Well, you see… its something thats been planned for a month now, actually. Its really funny how it all worked out.

    Tina didnt say anything but didnt take her eyes off Bette. She suddenly felt her heart beating rapidly against her chest, almost certain she knew what would come out of Bettes mouth. When Bettes eyes were lit up like that, something she was passionate about was taking over her. And Tina knew what was being built in that building.

    Say it. Tina whispered.

    You know, dont you? Bette asked, amazed at Tinas insights.

    Tina nodded. But I want to hear you say it.

    That building is mine, Tina. Im moving to LA to start a new gallery.

    1. You’re inviting me to see Star Wars? I’m flattered, but I think I have to decline; we haven’t been properly introduced, etc. (But work on me, really, I’m worth it.)
      As for the story…
      Short. And I normally don’t complain about such things…however, it is surely a sign of reader greed that I just want more and more. Now that we know what Bette’s up to…when will we find out what Tina’s up to? And why do I think Tina missing Bette’s day is something that she’ll still have to atone for?

    2. Jumping up and down forgetting about my broken arm. OMG fareast thank you so much for this. I’ve been holding my breath for so long. I can’t tell you how much I haved loved reading this story. Thank you so much.

    4. I’m so hopelessly hooked on this…what is Tina working on??? Fingers crossed that her plans are in sync with Bettes. Thanks for taking the time to write, your chapters are always such a pleasure to read.

    7. Hot damn, this is just so awesome. Tina’s heart was beating fast because she just got a job in LA. Please make it so, pretty please. Where should I meet you for the Star wars showing? I’ll buy the popcorn since you got the tickets.

    13. I know I’m beginning to sound like a broken record but I truly LOVE this story! Every chapeter carries us a little closer to what we all long for…a Bette and Tina reunion…at least that’s what I’m hoping..lol!

    14. What can I add to the rest of the comments.
      Yup, another fantastic and fabulous chapter.
      Stgae one in place and revealed; Bette will be in LA.
      Stage two: Tina gets an offer she can’t refuse and moves to LA.
      Stage three: Hot monkey sex for Bette and Tina.
      Stage four: Alice and Dana, envious of Bette & Tina get it on too.
      Stage five: Shane continues to make her way through LA’s lez community.
      Please make some of my dreams come true.
      Awaiting your next post with much anticipation. You do like to tease and torment your readers. Keep up the great work. The way this story is unfolding is a masterstroke.
