Vignettes: Chapter 45
***
The first thing I have to say, other than Im so excited youre back in LA, is that Im so excited both you and Tina will be here again. The second thing is Tina is happy when shes around you even if you dont see it. The third thing is I believe Tina makes you happy in return even if you dont want to admit it. And the last thing is you and Tina belong together.
Well, is that all then? Bette asked sarcastically. I hope you werent looking for a response.
Id like to elaborate, if thats ok.
Carry on, I shouldve known it was too good to be true that you had nothing left to say.
Do you not see it, Bette? The chemistry between the two of you? Dont you feel it? It is so obvious. I know you probably think that me, along with Dana and Shane are living in a dream world from the past where we only can remember you and Tina as a wonderful couple. And part of that is true. We all remember the two of you together and wish things never went astray. But they did and I remained your friend for the years to follow, with both of you living hundreds of miles away from me, apart. And I accepted the fact that the two of you moved on and lived separate lives, though I never quite wanted to believe it.
Alice took a breath to look at Bette and make sure she was still listening.
After random phone calls from you two or three times a year and hearing from Tina on a semi-regular basis, depending on her mood, I heard story after story about how the two of you hooked up in some way or another at arbitrary meetings. It was weird how you both ended up at the same places at the same time so often. Did you never stop to think that it meant something? No. Neither of you did. Instead, you had mindless ***** and left it at that, too stubborn to actually talk to each other. The closest you actually came to admitting you had feelings was in Provincetown. And what happened at the end of the week? You both left, promising to call if you wanted to pursue something more than random meetings. But neither of you picked up a phone, though both of you thought about it for months after the fact. Am I right?

WOnderful chapter, I hope Bette listens to Alice.
Totally love your story & the images that u portray with ur carefully selected words..x
awww.. you got my wittle heart pounding. It can’t be complete without the same house.
This is so awesome. Thank you for posting today.
LOVE IT Go Bette…Get your girl back…I have loved how you have told this story..Please continue
ok so bette bought there old house. Now I get it, I though that what it might have been, but I didn’t know for sure. Thanks for the update, and leaving me a comment it makes me feel special. Ok I still want you to take your time, don’t rush them.
Alice talking sense? I must be in a parallel universe…excellent discussion with Bette. I hope Bette takes her advice. Hmmm the house.
SOLD! I love it! Who’s final buyer? I’m guessing Bette but one never knows with the way you magically weave the story. Don’t leave us guessing for too long please! You are just too good! Thanks!
I so love this story. I have had such a rough couple of weeks that I am glad I finally caught up and again just love this story. It seems so appropriate that Alice would be the one to get Bette to think. Shane gets her to talk and hopefully Tina will get her to finally move. Thanks so much.
“Go Alice, go Alice!”. Alice totally rocks in this installment. I love it.
Just as at the start of season 2 Alice is the only one of the group able to talk to Bette. Hopefully Bette will walk down the road now that Alice has given her the map showing a route to happiness.
I adore the way that you have totally captured each of these characters’ imperfections and short comings. They live and breath in this world.
As for Tina and Shane, another brilliant union, as they investigate Bette’s purchase? Not so sure about that as you do like to add some dyke drama to these proceedings. Perhaps Bette is the guarantor for someone else or is she selling the house? I know that you will provide a very satisfactory resolution to these queries.
Can’t wait for your next post.
A loyal fan.
That was simply brilliant Fareast!
Now the house what is the story there i wonder.
Thank you.
wow. well done. i really love alice on this. exactly to the point. wonderful fareast!!!
You go Alice! This is so exciting!!! I lov e it!!! Thanks!
this story has got to be one of my faves. so well-crafted and thought out. u capture the girls so well. thanks you for sharing this with us — & for us long as u r writing.. it’ll be our pleasure to read!
Another brilliant installment. I can’t beleive Bette needs Alice to tell her what to do – what a dork;0)
Woo, sold! Heh, I really love this story and glad to see another chap so soon after the last. Keep up the awesome job!
You sure know how to make a girl happy! Thanks for posting the next chapter so quickly. Oh, and thanks for being such an amazing writer! :)
There is a definite sense of place in your stories. Each time I resume reading the new chapter, its like I’m returning to a world that you have created where the characters have distinctive voices. There is a definite past that is encolsed within the present.
I’m trying to say that the world you create seems real and unique. It’s unlike any other on this site. I would know, even without labels or preface, that I was reading YOUR story.
Yes, I’m getting antsy but you just disregard that and keep on writing!Thank you for continuing your story.
I’m so glad you’ve continued with this story. It’s very well written.
another enthralling chapter, loved it. Thanx.
One of your best chapters yet -love your having Alice tell Bette some truth but I’m thinking Bette already knows this- can she let herself trust herself and Tina once again? Can’t wait to see how you write your story.
i find myself being ridiculously redundant in the comments that i leave, but that is simply because each and every chapter is as good, if not better, than the one before. thanks for this and as usual, will be looking for more.
I’m hopeful for them…this is great. Thank you.
Fareast – you have done it again – another amazing and brilliant chapter. I find myself getting so absorbed into your story telling. You really do a wonderful job here! Thank you so very much for writing and sharing.
And how very kind of you…five heart shaped cookies for me? Really? I’m so touched… thanks a bunch. (you know that is my very favorite chapter to date!)
And this weather! so beautiful and hope that it lasts this week and beyond! I even got to spend part of the weekend down on the Cape.
Sunny days and clear skies to you!
Thanks again for another amazing chapter!
You can drag this story on forever and I will keep raedin.
Very nice, as always. Keep dragging it along, really.
Great Story, Every one should have a friend like Alice.
Awww Fareast…just amazing work. Love the way Alice spoke to Bette and the fact that Bette has bought their old house back. Post soon
Far…I have been following this amazing story from the beginning! I think you have done a terrific job with the pacing….it has allowed us to be a part of B&T’s journey back to one another! Excellent!
