What is love? – Chapter 9
“Al, I like her a lot.”
“Yeah, but I think she loves you. She’s dreaming of white picket fences.”
The Gallery
About forty-five minutes after being chastised by Alice, Bette strode into the her gallery. She stopped by Carolyn’s office on the way to hers. Bette looked at her schedule and began mentally organizing her day.
“If, uh, Tina Kennard phones, put her right through,” Bette said almost shyly.
“All right, I’ll do that,” answered Carolyn.
Carolyn smiled. Only a few days ago Bette had told her to put Tina off if she called. Now she was to put her right through. She thought that this must mean that Gillian was out of the picture and this Tina was most definitely in. She must be something to have Bette talking about her with such softness in her eyes. That softness had not appeared with Gillian, Sandy, Caitlin, Betsy, Roxyand then Carolyn’s memory failed her.
When she met Tina later that day, she began to understand. Tina phoned in the early afternoon. Carolyn was going to put her right through to Bette, but Tina stopped her. She wanted to surprise Bette with dinner at her office and needed to know when Bette would be finished with her appointments.
When Tina showed up about 5:00 with take out, Bette was still in a conference. Carolyn had Tina sit in her office until Bette was through and covertly studied her. She was very attractive–beautiful blond hair, soft brown eyes, nice figure. Carolyn felt a little embarrassed checking out another woman, but she continued to do so.
After they had engaged in conversation, Carolyn decided that Tina was soft, warm, but there was clearly a glint of steel and purpose in her eyes. She was also in love with Bette, Carolyn thought.
Bette finished the meeting and saw the potential customer out, not noticing Tina in the office as she walked by. When she came back by her assistant’s office, Carolyn stopped her.
“Bette, you have a visitor.”
Bette turned, walked into the office and saw Tina. Carolyn watched with fascination as Bette’s face changed from the bright, shrewd gallery owner tolove. Her boss was in love with this girl!
“T,” Bette smiled that huge high wattage smile.

i hope Bette wake up soon about her feeling for Tina and dont deny just cause she think “i dont do relationship”…ok cant wait for next chappy that was really great thanks :o)
im glad al put it to her. and carolyn did it also. cant imagine what kit said, hope it was the same kinda stuff.
but hilarous the al bit. “oh and make sure that tina knows shes supposed to wear clothers, too. she may not know that you two actually do things together dresses.”
thanks to you i may be able to get thru and huge family dinner with all the family drama.
I am sure at least 75% of your readers have no idea what a shiveree is; you must also come from a small town
great chapter, still love this story. Keep up the good writing!
Bette’s panic is very rational. From a playgirl to a commited partner, we need this. Thanks for the new chapter. Please do go on.
a silent reader here, just wanna say that i enjoyed all the previous chapters as much as this one..
Thank you.
Good chapter. Well Bette need to figure out the feeling she have for Tina and let see what’s next!
Thanks for the great chapter, I was sitting here laughing, wondering if Tina was still in Bette’s Office and overhead Alice. This will be great if she was, I want to see how she reacts and how Bette reacts to Tina’s reaction
This chapter was funny from start to finish; look forward to the next one.
To cute to words Thanks! By the way wants means shivaree.
that was great love and laughs. I hope Bette gets it soon but I do believe you may have drama before then.
I just finished reading all of the previous chapters and I just wanted to tell you that I am loving this story!! I wonder what Alice barged in on?? Anyway, keep up the good work!!
I just got caught on your story pancha and I like it a lot. This is a nice and new approach with the hesitant Bette. I hope that Kit is also encouraging, please continue.
