When You Least Expect It – Chapter 20
The ringtone faded, indicating another missed call as Bette smiled at her best friend.
“What happened in the past doesn’t matter. Our friendship is stronger than ever”
Jan smiled, “Yeah. Kicking ass and taking names until we’re old ladies. I mean, look at us now on a rescue mission. God help any idiot that tries to mess with us tonight”
It was meant to be a joke but the moment the words had left Jan’s mouth, she was filled with regret. Especially the look she saw on Bette’s face, the sadness blanketing the brunette’s features completely crushing her.
“Do you think we’ll find her?” Bette whispered brokenly.
“Without a doubt” Jan replied instantly. She didn’t bother to question herself whether she really believed that or not. She had faith that they would find Angie safe and sound and that was all she needed to know.
Melissa’s name popped up yet again on screen and this time it couldn’t be ignored. Jan had had enough.
“That’s it, I’m answering it. This is call number three. I’m curious to know what she wants”
She pressed the green button on the screen just as Bette had begun to protest. The brunette glared at her best friend, who seemed really pleased with herself. Jan gestured for Bette to speak, earning another glare.
“Hello?”
“Bette?” The soft voice spilled through the speakers and Jan couldn’t help but notice how sexy it sounded.
Giving her best attempt at a cheerful tone, Bette replied to the woman on the line. “Hey Melissa”
“Long time, stranger. How are you?”
Her voice had seemed strained as if she was forcing small talk, a fact that confused Bette. She wondered about Melissa’s intentions, briefly entertaining the idea that the sculptor was calling to try and rekindle what they had in the past. Bette quickly dismissed the idea, knowing that Melissa was aware that Tina was in the picture.
Bette considered telling the truth but decided against it, not wanting to have to explain the situation with Angie and Kevin. She was much too emotional for that, “Good and you?”
“Good” The voice crackled on the other end as she sighed, “Listen, this is gonna sound weird but are you still dating Tina?”
Jan’s head immediately whipped to Bette but the brunette refused to meet her gaze, not wanting to deal with any accusatory looks. Where was Melissa going with this conversation?

Way to go Tina! Glad it was a good punch, enough to knock out a filling. Bette was an ass towards Tina. Yes Tina should have told her but could she wait until a less stressful time. Thanks to both Melissa and Kevin’s mom. Can’t wait to see what happens between Jan and Melissa inthe next episode . Good chapter.
Great Chapter, loved it!
Went through all the gambits of emotion and enjoyed them all!
So glad you didn’t leave us on a cliff hanger, thanks.
Bette was an ass, Tina was a bad ass!
Look forward to the next post

Hi! Thank you for the chapter!
Yeah, Bette was completely jerk in this part, but i’m glad that they found Angel and made up.
Waiting for the final part!
I was putting together a bookcase when I randomly decided to see if you posted and boy was I happy you did. I put off my little project until I finished reading. So glad that Bette and Tina got past the hiccup in the beginning. Even happier that they got their baby girl back. To finally hear Bette claim Angie as her daughter was so sweet, then she called her momma. Wow! Hope the last chapter gives them the happy ending they deserve. I love your stories. Thank you for the update!
Bette said her criticle, extremely vicious words to Tina out of fear & pain, but she still said ’em!!! Tina needs to tell Bette how HER wrds impacted her!!
Wasn’t it Tina who wanted to call home several times during the course of the evening because she felt something was “wrong” but Bette told her to chill?
Yeah, you right about that.
If it were me, after having my baby kidnapped and almost losing my gf, I wouldn’t focus on “who said what”. I’d just be grateful to have them in my arms again. Hurt people hurt people, but that doesn’t make it right. So they immediately apologized to each other once they reunited with baby Angie. Tina knows her partner well enough to know she didn’t truly mean it. And once again, Bette apologized. For a woman who’s known to be wrapped up in herself and typically oblivious to what’s around her— that’s progress. Heck even Tina is a little passive-aggressive. I’m proud they worked through it in their own way. ✨
Bette was too hard to Tina, but i glad they made up.
And bye-bye Kevin, we don’t miss you!
Whew….so glad they got Angie back from the bastard Kevin! Way to Melissa and Kevin’s Mom for stopping CRAZY from prevailing! Bette was scared and worried about Angie, BUT saying those things to Tina….It’s your FAULT were FOUL. And Tina lying to Bette and not telling her about Kevin’s drunken intention the night of your BDay dinner was FOUL too. So glad they made up and apologized and ANGIE CALLED BETTE, MAMA!
Bye-Bye Kevin, Tina got a good punch in on that jerk…I wished it would have been Bette! Hate to see this story end. Thanks for the update.
One more to go…huh! :)
Great chapter as always. Loved your story I know yiu have one more but thank you it was very well written and full of love.. glad it all worked out and glad kevins mom is not a bad person like him.
Thank god that that Angie is back in her mothers arms!
Kevin’s mother has a good heart and seems to accept that Angie has two mothers, that is why she called the police, thanks to her and Melissa Angie was soon back.
In fear and stress situations people, Bette, say things they don’t mean and i am so happy that Tina and her made up immediately at the airport.
Glad that there will be one more chapter!
