    Author Notes:

    Getting settled

    “And what are you doing now?”

    “Sitting on the couch drinking a glass of wine trying to feel settled.” Bette replied.

    “It’ll take a while to feel settled, Bette. How’s Tina?”

    “Couldn’t tell you. I haven’t talked to her since before the move but I know she came out here yesterday.”

    “Why haven’t you stopped by to see her?” Shane asked.

    “I’ve been really busy with the gallery and getting the apartment all set.” Bette said. “Besides, I’ve wanted to give her space to adjust before I go to see her. Not too much at once, do you know what I mean?”

    “I understand what you’re saying but I don’t agree with it.”

    Bette took another sip of wine and frowned to herself. “What do you mean?”

    “Giving Tina space? Too busy to stop by? Bullshit, Bette.”

    “It’s not bullshit, Shane.”

    “Yes it is. Stop making excuses and go see her before a few days turns into a few weeks and before you know it, months have passed and you guys never see each other.”

    Bette was on the defensive and was ready to speak back, but paused suddenly, repeating Shane’s words in her head again. She once again tried to speak but realized she didn’t know what to say. Shane’s words were true and she couldn’t argue that, no matter how much she wanted to.

    “Bette? You still there?”

    Bette took a deep breath. “Yeah, I’m here. I was just thinking.”

    “And?”

    “You’re right. I should just stop by. First thing tomorrow morning.”

    “Bette, look at your watch and tell me what time it is.” Shane said.

    “It’s eight thirty on the dot.”

    “Why not go over tonight?”

    “I’m exhausted, Shane, and I’m sure Tina is too.” Bette replied.

    “Excuses, excuses. Days, weeks, months, years… pretty soon Tina’s daughter will be a teenager.”

    “Ok, ok, I get the point. Guess I’d better get myself ready for an evening stroll?”

    “Go to her and move past the bullshit. You both deserve more than you’ve been giving. Go to her. Now. You won’t regret it.”

    “Thanks, Shane. I’ll call you tomorrow.”

    1. This is one of my favorites. Please let it continue. There is so much left to write. They are just starting over here and the dynamics have changed so much. Please keep going..

    3. Oh please don’t mention stopping. This has been a perpetual favorite of mine and has never disappointed. You’ll find many volunteers to post for you if you have trouble! In any case, thank you for one of the best and unmatched storylines & the marvelous creativity you’ve woven into your chapters. I hope you decide to stretch it out longer. Thanks!

    7. Hey far I have read vignettes all the way up to hear and I’m on chapter 30 of sould harvest but so far no mention of dakota and how she was born and stuff, am I missing something or is it in SH and I have not gotten to it yet?? could you let me know, Thanks for this awesome story

    10. Fareast…hey! I love your writing! You have a real flair for realistic dialogue and for being “right on” with each character’s depiction. If you do end this story (I hope you don’t) I am going to beg you, if that is what it takes, to continue to write another…and another….and….
      Get it? Thanks for this chapter and I’m so sorry that your struggling with the format…I want to kick your Mac’s ass for making it so hard on you! (Kidding, gosh!)

    13. Always glad to read more of this.

      The main fanfiction page has a link for sending info to the coders…try that to see if they can help w/the formatting issues.

    14. Oh Fareast…don’t you know by now that it doesn’t matter if this story is formatted right…spaced right…your writing captivates us so much, that we don’t even notice. I too am sad that this story is ending. It has been a favorite of mine, as well. However, where this ends, I hope another begins. Thank you.

    17. Please don’t let an inanimate object win out over posting. We like your story regardless of how it comes across in format. Your story is sooooo much more than formatting. Please continue to let us into this wonderful world that you have created with Vignettes!

      Nicely done, the ‘soft and slow’ was simply devine.

    19. where have you been women. i have been waiting for this. please dont talk about ending it unless your going to write a sequel, because this story is wonderful. amazing chapter as per usual fareast.i’m lovin it.

    20. You are brilliant as always.

      I should tell you that when my girlfriend hears me let out a happy sound while sitting at the computer, she says “let me guess, Fareast posted?” And I turn to her with the biggest grin.

      Thank you :)

    23. This story has been incredible, I will be sad to see it end. You have done a marvelous job writing it…I’ve enjoyed the journey and can’t wait for the next installment.

    24. What a morning on the fanfics fareast, your beautiful, breathless story is such a favorite. And big chapters by JWET and Seahurst. Must be a holiday weekend.

    25. I concur with Christy’s comment – please continue the story. Or start a new one! Just keep writing … you write the characters very well.

    26. let me echo everyone else here and say this story is one of my favorites, format doesn’t matter, i was so excited to see it. but sad to hear that it’s ending… any chances for a sequel?

    29. i simply don’t accept just one more chapter. how’s that for a comment? if Tina wants Bette to crowd their lives, i think that it is only fair that you crowd this website with lots more posts. just a thought and Happy 4th!
