I thought we could spend the evening together… PT24
As Emily released her tightly wrapped arms from Bette neck, she smiled at hearing the words, “I will, I promise. Bye Bette.”
“Good bye honey, Ill be waiting for that painting you know!”
Emily gave her best smile, her chest puffed out, childly importance filling her that her friend wanted her painting in a very important gallery. She held her hand out to her mothers own hand as she looked over at Tina, “Bye Teeny!”
“Bye honey, it was nice to see you.” Tina then glanced to Jill, “bye Jill, it was nice to meet you.”
“Bye…” Jill glanced over at Bette and smiled, “thank you for taking an interest and spending time talking to Emily”
“Its been my pleasure. Ill see you soon, OK.” Bette replied, seeing a tinge of sadness in the eyes of the childs mother.
Bette and Tina sat in silence as they watched the two retreating blonde figures, both in deep separate thoughts, processing the chance meeting of a five year old and her mother, the meeting of a child who pulled at heart strings in Bette that she thought were long buried, similarities in the innocent words of a child into her own tortured thoughts of dealing with a demanding and possessive father for whom she had always strived for unconditional acceptance.
Bettes thoughts turned to her earlier conversation with Tina and their statements. When she had heard those words, it sent her mind in complete turmoil, how she treated Tina when her father was around, her father, upon in the pedestal she had placed him on, and for what, it was now apparent that those actions of her continually striving for his acceptance were impinging and affecting the relationship with her one and only, the one who never judged her, the one who accepted her as a whole, complete with flaws and impurities, and loved her regardless.
Bette knew she loved her father, but why did that never seem enough, why did she feel like she was always a failure in his eyes, why nothing was ever good enough, it saddened her to think that she had spent her whole life, so far, trying to please the unappeasable, she was a grown woman with an amazing partner and yet when he stepped in front of her everything fell by the wayside, why did she allow that to happen, why did she not take Tina into account when he was around, why did Tina have to conform just because she felt she had to, Tina was an independent woman, who had her own thoughts and views and was free to express them whenever she felt it appropriate.

But who has to clear up the mess? I hope Bettes leaving a BIG Tip for the housekeeping staff!
Very romantic, Bette show me more Porter charm! lol…don’t know why, when I knew Emily’s dad is Henry. I sense some drama is coming. I hope he’s NOT the Henry! Please don’t make them use his sperm as they like Emily so much. I’m thinking too much so it’s time to bed then…lol, please continue.
This is a great fic by a brillant writer. LOVE the communication and the admittance and acknowledgement of fault by both parties, especially Betty, it shows her growth. This is so eloquently written.

Just wonderful. Am too tired to write anything more specific or eloquent but that doesn’t mean I appreciate it any less. Thanks for posting.
Wonderful,beautiful and I do believe that Ms.Bette has gotten into Tina good gotten into Tina good gracest again.
love the romance and can’t wait for the next chapter
Fantastic as always, thank you
Hey little Emily – glad she’s sticking around along with Jill (not sure if that was your original plan). Way to go, Bette. GREAT chapter!!
Very romantic indeed.
I love how you can take simple words and turn them into this flowing story full of love. You have taken this couple from utter despair to the highest mountain and into the sea of delight. I have always loved Bette and Tina together and with the help of your story you have reminded me of the absolute love that a person can have for another. What ever seems to be thrown at them you have allowed them to work throught it and that seems to have brought them closer as a couple. IC and company should take lessons from your story telling. Then maybe they will treat Bette and Tina the way that most of us would love to see them.
Jo, as usual another fantastic chapter. If I remember correctly you left a comment on another author’s chapter calling her an ole slushy romantic. After this chapter I think that would accurately describe you also.
Take your vitamins Tina. Bette’s going to mean business after dinner! I look forward to reading about that business, Jobadge. As always, this chapter rocked!
Now that was just beautiful… perfect… in every way… there is not too much more i can add… you took my breath away… i look forward to them making love on a bed of rose petals… please continue
Damn this is sweet and romantic!
OMG…that was an amazing and wonderful chapter – I just love the Porter Power and Charm, she is so romantic, sweet and loving, when she wants to and luckily (for us) she wants to a lot with and for Tina :o)) I sure hope Emily and Jill will stick around, but NOT Henry!!!! Take care and thank you :o))
Excellent and breathtaking as always. Please post soon.
There are some chapters of a story that make your heart beat a little faster….there usually NC17s……this chapter just proves that it doesnt have to be NC anything…..to actually make your heart skip a few beats….no matter how many times you read it….Romance at its best!
Oh, I think Bette already showed Tina how much she loves her and how sorry she is, but what will follow will be an amazing addition to that. Thanks a lot for this chapter… Ah, red rose petals.
HENRY?!? *Roll eyes*Plz dear Lord, tell me, Your Tina is not going to have feelings for men in this story, and she just happens to fall for a man, named Henry, coz I seriously couldnt deal with another s3 lmao’ … but apart from that, Im enjoyin it! love this story! … that was nice, n romantic
