Tina took Bette’s hand under the table and squeezed it. Bette looked at her gratefully.
Alice kept her drink in front of her face so the others at the table would not see her biting her lower lip to keep from laughing. She was afraid to take a drink because she might start laughing and spit beer all over every one.
Shane joined in some of the conversation. But small talk was not a social grace she had mastered. Mostly she watched Bette and Tina and felt happy andsecure. But her face was unreadable and no one could have guessed what she was thinking.
When Bette went to the bar to get drinks for Tina and her, Alice followed behind. Bette braced for Alice’s comments on her huge social gaffe.
“Porter, Porter, Porter. You are totally starry-eyed. I’ve heard of people so in love that they didn’t remember their own name, but Bette–forgetting your woman’s name is pretty bad.”
Alice couldn’t hold it any more and began laughing.
“Or maybe it was just a ‘senior moment.’” Alice gasped.
“I was just worried about introducing Tina to a piranha like you,” Bette said tightly.
“By Tina, do you mean Tina Kennard?” Alice asked.
Bette got her drinks and left Alice who, by this time, was draped over the bar convulsed by her own wit.
—————————————————–
Alice managed to recover and in a few minutes rejoined the group at the table. She had been curious about the connection between Bette and Shane and now seemed to be a good time to ask since they were both at the table.
“How do you two know each other?” Alice asked, looking from Bette to Shane.
“We met at the Planet. Shared a table while we were eating dinner. It was the night you left early to interview Dana. Remember?” Bette knew that the complete story would be Shane’s to tell if she wanted to.
Alice’s reporter antennae told her that there was more to the story, but Bette was clearly through speaking and Shane wasn’t going to speak at all. Their faces were bland and unrevealing.
Shane was glad that Bette had not described how she had made a pass at her. Maybe she would tell that story one day, but not now.

Does Alice know Bette or what. This was a great update, and Tina was right in telling Bette how she really feels. They been patient enough so far, whats a bit more. Its been a big step for both of them. Was so starting to think Tina was gonna start giving some of those women a piece of her mind. Great update and can’t wait for more.
I love your writing style it’s so romantic, especially the way you drift into B&T’s stream of consciousness… Looking anxiosly forward to the next chappy…
Ugh Bette.Bette.Bette!!!!! Wake up lady someone should hit on Tina. See how she feels with that….Like love needs to jump up and bite her in the ass….OMG Great, fun loving story pancha…
first of all piranha???…lmao..priceless…for those who dosent know piranha means slut..lol..pancha who is teaching you those bad words?..lol..brb
LOL to your author’s comment that ‘Bette’s kinda dense’ ;-)
Wow, you remind me of my ex-bf. When he said ‘I love you’. I always answered ‘Me too’, avoiding saying ‘I love you’. It really sucks. =(
Tina,you go gal! it’s cool Tina share her feelings with Bette. Hmm..Bette need some soul-searchin of herself. She’s right in front of you,Bette. Open your heart!!
worse than say nothing is when the asnwer to i love you is “thank you”..lol..you know Tina is very patient to Bette but Bette need to do something and think about Tinas feelings too cuz Tina is going to start think if she is wasting her time with a none future relationship…Tina is one of those “family person” and she wants that with dumb Bette..lol..ok another great chapter psot soon thanks a lot :o)
I wanted to let you know that I have been reading your story from the beginning and I enjoy it a lot. Please continue with the excellence. Kiitos!
COOP – NANC – hey girls. love following ya around the board. such insight, such wit such intelligence. was i just describing myself. ahahahahaha. ;)
pancha – loving this story. keep it coming. and bette, dense, never heard of such a thing.
I love this story and the different approach to the B&T relationship. Here for a change we see Tina reeling in Bette, inch by inch. Yes, me thinks that the player is about to be played out. Tina is going to turn this Dog into a puppy, or should I say her puppy dog–he he. Slowly but surely Bett’s playing days are over. Instead of playing the field, she will be now playing in her play pin and happily so. Let Shane have a go at the field. Good stuff, please continue.
The first step is when Bette buys a larger bed. She doe have grocery in the kitchen, Then she will start seeing Tina more often. then comes the U-Haul but Bette will need to ask, Tina has made herself clear. thanks
Is it wrong to think that Alice was wrong by telling Tina that Bette was in love with her? what if Bette found out that she wasn’t IN love with Tina and that she only loved her..
It will be harder on Tina to get over Bette if any thing bad happened between them, esp after Alice getting Tina’s hopes up..
Well i don’t always comment but i always look forward to new chapters, love this story.. ;)
I agree with slipperynipple,someone should hit on Tina that might open up Bette’s eyes. Loving this story and thanks for the great chapter.
Wow, I don’t know how Tina can put up with Bette’s reticence. How much can she endure before she thinks ‘I need someone who can love me back’ (since she doesn’t know what Bette feels). I can’t wait to see where you take us. Great story!
Really enjoying your fic please post again soon!!!!
I read all your chapters in one sitting. If only TLW’s writing staff can come up with something half this good…if only… * sigh*
Will you marry me?
Good chapter. This is a little hard for them and hope time will help Bette to say “I love you” back to Tina and tell her how her feeling for her. Ok post soon please, thanks!
A freakin’ Yale graduate and can’t see she is in love. Oh..and some of those women approaching Bette should have gotten an ass whoopin’
was this the way bette felt when she first met tina even though she was with eric.bette is still in denial with her fellings for tina.
those feelings they can fuck you up.
