You’re my home – chapter 35
—————————————
Tina stepped outside to put some rubbish out for collection which was in the early hours of tomorrow morning. Bette had succumbed to the same bug that was affecting Angie. They had been eating lunch when Bette had leapt up and made it to the bathroom in time to be sick. She was now asleep on the sofa with Angie. Tina wasn’t unduly worried – at least she was well enough to take care of her family which left Tina wondering if the source of what could be food poisoning was burgers they had had for lunch the day before – she hadn’t been hungry and Bette and Angie had shared hers. That clearly explained why she was fine and the others were sick. If they were both just as ill tomorrow Bette would drive them to the doctors so they could be tested – she wasn’t going to take any risks with her two girls – both meant the world to her
She was just dragging out the recycling box when Shane’s familiar battered jeep pulled up outside her house. Tina waited for Shane to get out of the car
“Hey there – how are you ?”
“Fine “ Shane’s greeting was not as bright as Tina’s had been
“How are things with you ?”
“Okay “
Tina was aware that Shane looked like she hadn’t slept for a week – which she probably hadn’t.
“I have two sick girls- Bette and Angie have food poisoning “
Shane looked concerned and regarded Tina
“Is there anything I can do ?”
“I think I have it for now – you should see them – they are fast asleep on the sofa – both in their pyjamas “
“Is there anything you can do ?”
“You know what its like when you have an upset tummy – you just have to sit it out. When they have stopped being sick I will give them some crackers – just something bland until their stomachs can take something better “
“Are you okay ?”
“Fine – it seemed to have been some burgers we had for lunch yesterday “
“You don’t like burgers ?”
“I love them but I wasn’t hungry – just as well or there would be three of us being sick “

Interesting as always AllyE. Hope Bette and Angie are ok, just a little stomach virus, maybe. Good that Shane made up with Tina. Now what is going on at the studio that has upset Tina? Great post. Post when you can.
Can’t wait to see what’s going on with Tina at the studio. Also hope Bette doesn’t act like a big baby when she’s sick, if that’s what Shane was alluding to! PPS
Great chapter Ally. You’ve got my curiousity about what the rumours are at the studio. Waiting patiently for your next update.
A lovely injection of allyemmerson..all’s right with the world!
Well done, love the story. PPS
glad that tina and shane worked it out! now what is going on with tina and work? :)PPS
Yeah, both Bette and Shane had limited childhoods which may have lead to their mutual tendency to schtupp for the USA at the Olympics, but I find the comparison to be of somewhat limited value. I mean both the Marquis de Sade and Clark Gable were noted celebrity lover boys of their respective days, but I think that’s about all those two shared. Bette’s youth, though harsh under Melvin’s parentage, was otherwise one of comfort and some privilege; Shane more or less grew up in the gutter. Shane needs to grow into a mature Shane, not the Shane Bette and/or Tina think she needs to be.
Poor Bette and Angie but Tina is there to take care of them and hope they will get better soon. Glad Tina and Shane talk and they are ok now. Please post more, thanks!
Hello AllyE, Thank you for another fine and fabulous addition to this fantastic fan fiction. Youn make the most mundane moments extraordinary. Bette and Tina dealing with a hot and bothered Angelica was so precious. This little girl is the light of both her mothers’ eyes. Tina, in full Nightingale mode, is pretty delicious. Great to see how she delas with her lover and child. Calmness reigns supreme as Tina just gets on with the day to day reality. Her concerns about works are teasing. I do hope things get sorted out sonner rather than later. I do get the sense that Bette might be the patient from hell as she tries to fend of infection and continue as before. I am sure Tina has the measure of her partner. Then Shane and Tina begin to rebuild their friendship. The sins of the past are discussed and the present is what they are working on. Shane knows that sher has acted foolishly and is able to admit it. Tina can deal with this and get them to move forward. Wonderful writing and classic storytelling. Brilliant as always. Thank you so much for entertaining me with all that you create. Your Loyal Fan.

Caught up from our long weekend away…loving this story. pps
I must say, a beautiful chapter..nicely done..anxious for the nxt post
Nice chapter! It’s very good to see the lovely side of Shane came back, also very curious about what happened at the studio about Tina’s work. Can’t wait to see the next post.
I so love this story!!! I do Hope B&A will be fine. Sounds like Tina and Bette need to sit down and talk. Thanks Ally !!!!
