“I’m glad you enjoyed yourself,” Bette said. She wasn’t really glad. But it was the diplomatic thing to say. And she wasn’t sure she wanted to know anymore anyway.
“How’s Jodi?” Tina asked.
“Obsessed by one of her projects,” Bette sighed. “I’m getting a glimpse of what you used to go through.”
“But she’ll be that much more attentive when the project is done, just like you used to be,” Tina offered. “When the creative mood strikes, no one knows more than you that you have to take advantage.”
“I accept it, but I don’t have to like it,” Bette said in response.
“Are you two going to the Bar opening tonight?”
“Kit is very keen to show solidarity with another women owned business, so yes, I think we’ll make an appearance,” Bette replied. “Are you planning on going?”
“Brenda wants to check it out,” Tina replied. “Angie’s going to spend a couple of hours with that young couple next door to me.”
“Maybe we could have a drink together?” Bette suggested.
“Jodi’s coming too?” Tina asked.
“No, she plans to work well into the evening,” Bette replied.
“Sure a drink would be great,” Tina said. “You can meet Brenda.”
“It doesn’t seem like Angie’s going to wake up anytime soon,” Bette commented. “Why not grab a bathing suit and enjoy the water for a while?”
Tina paused silently.
“Did you have something else to do?” Bette asked.
“No, I was just going to take her back to my place,” Tina replied. “I didn’t have any other plans.”
“So why not relax here,” Bette said. “Even if she does wake up. What time is Brenda picking you up?”
“She’s on call today, so the earliest she’d be by is nine o’clock.”
We’ve both been ditched in favour of work,” Bette said. “So stay. We’ll hang out together, play with Angie – make it easier for your babysitters to get her to sleep tonight. I’ll even feed you something before you leave.”
“That sounds like a perfect way to spend the day,” Tina acquiesced. “Where do I find the bathing suit?”
“Top drawer of the dresser, master bedroom,” Bette replied. She slid her sunglasses down over her eyes. “Go change, I’ll listen for Angie.”

So glad to see this story continue!
Hmm. What an adorable family day. I liked that you have Bette in somewhat of the position that S1 Tina was in.. only in a relationship with less bonds to tie them. Its something that I think it reflected on the show. How awkward is Bette meeting Brenda going to be?
Nice way to spend the afternoon.happy that bette is being honest with tina about how she feels, and now understands how tina felt all those years ago.. :)
great JKS.. please continue soon :-)
I love that they were having a little bit of family time. It seem like Bette was a bit jealous about Tina’s date with Brenda. I hope that these two women end up with each other because they deserve each other. Thanks for the update JKS.
It’s great to see them spending time together. Maybe they can get to the point where they can discuss wanting to be together again. Actually Bette has to tell Tina what she wants. Last week it looked as though Jodi is beginning to see the writing on the wall and do is Bette. PPS
hmmm…. what will the rest of the afternoon bring??? what a lovely afternoon. swimsicle, i got that. its not a not-fit-for-humans day but dayum weve had a lot of snow, and more coming. love this story, love your words, just love everything about it. thx
Well written and completely realistic as per usual. It really is great to be able to pop on the site and read another gem from you. Thanks so much for taking the time. I hope the weather warms up a bit soon!
Nice one, Bette checking out T’s assets: are they still in place? do I want ’em? shall I take them back now?…lol at Ms Porter
nice afternoon as a family…i hope brenda gets stuck at work and tina and bette can have the evening all to themselves
If I was Bette I would be a lot jealous of Dr.Boobs. she is a pretty lady and a lot younger than Bette. Can Tina keep up with a toddler and a young chick. we will find out thanks
Awww…always nice to get another installment of something from swimmie.
Thank you, swim!!! That was really a marvelous surprise…to come home from a hard day at work tasting wine (heheh)… and to see these lovely pages waiting to soothe and entertain me. When I finished reading, I noticed I got a chill…which means the story and its venue, poolside in the warm California sun, musta warmed my bones while I was in enjoying the read. Hope it helped you to warm up while visualizing the scene as you wrote. Thanks again for another lovely and splendidly-written chapter.
A wonderful story. It seems to softly pull you into a day in this pair’s life. I really enjoyed the way you captured a moment in time… please continue the story…
That was great!
A nice little fill in chapter to move the story along, before the fireworks happen.
Many thanks for the lovely chapter.
A very enjoyable afternoon for Bette and Tina. Now let’s see how their evening and beyond goes.
I hope the afternoon Tina’s spending stays in the back of her mind while she’s on this date… Post more when you can, jks. Thanks for the chapter.
