Franklin snapped the envelope out of Bette’s hand and rushed out the door.
Bette went to close the door. Her hands were trembling. She sat down in her chair and rubbed her temples, trying to ease a beginning headache. She picked up the phone and called Tina’s work number.
“Tina Kennard.”
“Hi, T…” Bette said, feeling a little better just hearing Tina’s voice.
“Hey, baby… how did it go?”
“I don’t know… as well as could be expected I guess… He was pretty mad though…”
“What did he say?” Tina asked, getting slightly worried.
“He said that going to work at UCLA is a step down, he said that he’s disappointed in me… That really doesn’t bother me. What does bother me is that he’s going to talk to the lawyers. He sort of insinuated that he can stop me from leaving in a month…” Bette said, biting her lip.
“Bette… he’s just trying to intimidate you. You already talked through you contract with Karen Marsh… and she told you you’ve got nothing to worry about, right?”
“Right.”
“Franklin is an asshole, Bette… don’t let him get to you. Why don’t you call Karen Marsh? Fill her in on what Franklin said… She’s you lawyer, she needs to know the details in case he’s going to suggest you haven’t fulfilled your contract,” Tina said, “baby, it’s going to be fine…”
“I know… but T?”
“Yes?”
“I have to make this upcoming show a success… work is going to be really hectic over the next couple of weeks… I won’t give Franklin the chance to say that I’ve failed in any way,” Bette said.
“Okay…” Tina let out a long breath, “if that’s what you need to do…”
“Are you mad at me, T?” Bette asked in a hushed voice.
“…No… I’m not mad at you. I hate Franklin and I hate what he does to you… and I’ll miss you… but I’m not mad at you…” Tina said, trying to quench the anger she was feeling.
“I’ll miss you too… can I call you tonight?” Bette tried.
“I’d like that… baby, we’re going to be fine… we’ve dealt with worse, right?” Tina said.
“Yeah, we have…. I just don’t want to hold up the progress we’ve been making…”
“I know…” Tina whispered.

The days went by. Bette was working sixteen hours a day, slaving to make the show the best one to date. She dragged herself home after midnight and was back at the office at eight in the morning. Franklin was watching over the preparations like a hawk, ready to criticize or even threaten her every time Bette turned a corner.

I need a cigarette after that! LOL. Very hot way to start my Sunday morning. Thanks! pps! Iove this story!
Hmmmm, I love this chapter so much I need a cold shower again. PPS.
You have a “comfortable” writing style. Your explanations and dialogue are realistic, interesting an adult. I wish the show would have this pairing again.
alpha bette that was hottttttttttttttttt
on the show some of tibette problems started when bette began working for CAC so i’m glad that part was over…less stress, more love for them
Loved the way you weaved through all the emotions in this post, Anker! Not many people have mentioned the conflicting emotions that Bette must have felt leaving the CAC. Remembering her progress and successes… there had to have been many bittersweet thoughts. Loved that she is taking Robin, I mean James, with her to the University. When B felt a little unsure after Franklin’s threats, how typical that she immediately finds time to call Tina. It was reminiscent of the night she called him out in his driveway. You mentioned somewhere that Bette has learned her lesson…. well, maybe, but how very Bette it was, for her to realize the anniversary at the last minute, and back peddle as quickly as possible to save the day. Best line (IMHO):”I love you…because of all the wonder you bring me…and in spite of all the BS you put me through…” That definitely is love! Well, until next time Anker, have a great week, and thanks for writing!
Awesome PPS
Hot. Hot. Hot. Happy Anniversay B&T. Great post.
Glad that Bette got her two cent worth on Franklin. He has try to unmind Bette from the beginning. Lets get the show over and her at school. thanks so much.
Definitly Bette deserves a better job! and Franklyn will miss her so much because she was the one that gave to the CAC better prestige. Good that Bette did sometime to be with Tina.
Hey you…I was beginning to wonder if I was going to have to PM you to get the next chapter. Then, VOILA…part thirty-three appeared on my screen. LOL! It’s must be bittersweet for Bette to turn in her letter of resignation. To take the CAC from nothing and to build it into a thriving business, must make Bette sad to leave her “baby”. CHange can be wonderful and Bette is overdue for a change when it comes to her job. Franklin doesn’t have a classy bone in his miserable body. He should be giving her the accolades she deserves for making the CAC so successful but instead he makes empty threats to intimidate. What an ASS! LOL! The best part of this chapter was when Bette looked at the date on her email and realized it was their anniversary. She was dead tired but went to Tina’s to be with her and to celebrate their love for 9 yrs. That’s what it’s all about Anker…true love. Makes me smile from ear to ear the way you captured the moment. Beautiful. PS.
Bette’s night call was very sexy/romantic! I’m very proud of her.
Hey Anker, After all of the shit that Franklin poured on Bette I was happy to see her pleasuring Tina on their anniversary. It is wonderful when these gals get together and just follow their desires. Wonderful and passionate writing. Thank you for this morning pleasure. More please. Your Loyal Fan.
Damn thats hot!
First???…..BRB :o))
Wow! Love your writing!
Sorry about that, I didn’t fell asleep (although I’m really tired today, it’s hard being a year older LOL – it was a great day, thanks) but the phone rang….and BTW; how could I ever fall asleep to your fantastic writing!!! It’s understandable Bette will do her best and shut Franklin up – I just thank god (and I’n not even religious LOL) that this is her last show. By giving in her resignation she has shown that Tina is her top priority… but right now it must be very hard on Tina…..watching history repeat itselt. Great post, I love this story (guess you already knew that)…and loved Bettes plan, phew that was hot!!! Have a great Sunday, talk soon xx
What’s that about the best laid plans…? Oh yeah, that men screw them up. Good to see that doesn’t apply here… ;) I’m glad Bette is closing the book on her time with the CAC, she’s taken it as far as she needs to, and it kept (it’s still keeping! grrr) her away from Tina. It’s time Bette started a new chapter, this time with a co-author, and hopefully they’ll be having a far better ending. Lovely writing, as always. Thanks, anker.
WOW, that was HOT anker. I can see how Tina was thinking about things not changing, but once Bette is gone from the CAC and working at the university things will be totally better. I know this is going to sound sappy but too bad. True love is a many splendid thing just like the song says. Thanks anker!!
That was hot as hell! I love reading your post…Please don’t keep us waiting to long for the next.
sweet and hott as hell. was kinda wonderin Bette at work for what 16hrs and no shower….but hey was still hott.
that was a nice plan, all right! tina got a pleasant early morning anniversary treat courtesy of (the very busy) bette. it was a good way to lose some sleeping time hee hee.
UMMMMMM, that was ummm some incredible adult alone time. That kind of left me speechless. They are so in sync with each other. Their bodies and souls are like an orchestra with each having a turn as the orchestra leader. They are able to tweak all of the passion out of their own playground which is the other’s body. Now if they can only make it through this final show and leave Franklin behind in his in own demise of stupidity.
uh oh, someone’s gonna blow a gasket…
Hey Anker, that was pretty hot!I luved when Tina says….OMFG,I luved the whole chappy!You are….. so amazing…. sigh! I left you a pm back..you took my pm cherry..lol
Anker, That was OMG!!!HOT!!!! Way to go Bette. I am glad Bette is moving on and Tina is doing her best not to give Bette a hard time. Love your writing. Post when you can. Thanks
i meant ‘rational’…
i’m assuming bette got to tina early in the morning of their anniversary day or did i get that wrong…she sent the email on the morning of their anniversary huh..i sure hope she did; anywayz t loved it….and so did i….more…u r becoming the queen of ‘love scenes’…way to go…cheers
wow fycking wow!!!!!!freakin’ hell superdaddy don’t get all rationale on us…its fiction..lmao…..loved the whole chapter…sweet stuff and so happy u posted…i’m busy work busy…pps
Ugh… Ugh… THUD!!!! damn girl :o)
anker, that was marvelous. I must have forgotten to check the rating though, because, for some reason, the hot steamy ‘Happy Anniversary’ Bette gave Tina caught me off guard. Yeah… I’m a little spacey. Anyway, great as always. Frankly, I’m just relieved Bette came to long enough to not screw up something really important! PPS, my friend. And I’m actually pretty sure the darn pleasure is mine! ;)
Wow, a wonderful and mind blowing chapter! I just hope Bette doesn’t continue putting work first before family because Bette can’t afford to lose Tina again.
its about time bette gives her women some attention… very/hot and well worth the wait..bette turn comin?? p.p.s.
