What is love? – Chapter 23
“Back to work,” Bette said. She always said that. And she walked back to her office with a lighter heart.
Carolyn smiled with deep affection at the departing Bette. She was so pleased that Tina had come into her boss’s life. She had uncovered a part of Bette that Carolyn had never seen before. She wondered if anyone had ever seen this Bette. She was softer, happier, loving and a little unsure, but charmingly unsure. And she was amused that Bette seemed to think that she and Tina weren’t already living togetherfull time.
Later as Carolyn readied herself to leave, she was thinking about the earring that Tina had lost, or had left, at that gallery exhibit. She stepped into Bette’s office to say goodnight.
“I hope your evening goes very well,” she offered. “That earring really changed everything, didn’t it?”
=======================
Their home
Bette arrived home first and put the roses in the guest room. Tina never went in there. Next to the vase she put a thick envelope.
“OK,” she said to herself as she went to the kitchen, took out plates and opened take-out food containers from one of Tina’s favorite restaurants.
“Wine,” and she got out their favorite white wine and the crystal glasses.
She heard Tina’s car and waited by the front door until she heard Tina’s key in the door. Then she opened the door and threw her arm out in a grand gesture to invite Tina into their house. Tina smiled at Bette a little uncertainly and walked in. Bette closed the door, took the briefcase and purse from Tina’s hands and bent her over for a passionate kiss.
“Wow, baby,” Tina said breathlessly. “This is pretty goodfor a Thursday.”
“Oh, it gets better,” purred Bette.
She led Tina to the table, lighted candles, poured the wine. They clinked glasses and began to eat.
“Baby, is this an anniversaryof something?” Tina asked worriedly. They already had many anniversaries: the monthly anniversary of the day they met–the monthly anniversary of their first dinner together–the monthly anniversary of the picnic and the first time they made love–the monthly anniversary of the day Bette said she loved Tina. But Tina was fairly sure it wasn’t one of those.

So funny, yet so SWEET!
DAMN!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS CHAPTER. IT WAS AWESOME. THE FACT THAT BETTE WAS DECLARING IT TO EVERYONE, IS PRICELESS. I WOULD LOVE TO COME HOME LIKE THAT ON A THURSDAY NIGHT. (THE POOL MAN RETORT IS ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS, REMINDS ME OF MY SISTER.) YOU ARE TRULY PRICELESS KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.
PEACE
I love this I can see Bette maturing fast. It was funny that all four people said the same thing. To be so smart she is not smart sometimes. You are lucky to have a M.M and M.M. picture signed. Started about 20 yrs ago, Still have my ticket to Nolan Ryans seventh No Hitter Was a B’day present.. Thanks
hahahaha, when I read the last few paragraphes, I have to smile. How cute and obtuse-but-still-cute Bette is!
awww aww awwww, there you go again with the sugar… gosh, bette is just so darn cute, like a little kid. She might be trying to mature in this relationship, but she still is a wee baby right now. Just hope that you will continue this story to their proposal and much much more after that.
great chapter!
The last part was so cute. “CAN IT BE ME?”… &Thanks for not making a drama with the pool guy thing…hahaha
Keep posting!you’re doing a great job!

Bette is so funny and cute and sweet and now she is growning, love her. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Not sure if I ever commented, but have always looked for this story. Poor Bette, she is like Dana in this story, the last to know. I liked your joke where Bette wants to be the one to propose. Maybe she should have done it right then and there before the others thought they are already “married”.Great story. Thanks for sharing your time and creativity.

I really love the dynamics in this story, plank headed bette really gets a chuckle…pls continue…
Ok this is priceless stuff Bette can be so clueless I’m tempted to say sometimes but it seems more like all the time. It’s good to see she’s letting some of those barriers down, thanks Pancha
