    Author Notes:

    A classical story told again, but now slightly different. ‘Because of you, I find it hard to trust, Not only me, but everyone around me’
    *hope 2 c u in Blackpool!*

    It was Peggy Peabody who recovered the most quick, admiring the way the galleryowner played her part of not having secundairy (or maybe it could better be said primary) interests in her collection but make profit. Helena on the other hand, was outraged, and her upperclass accent rose in indignation:

    Break up the McFay collection? Do you have any idea how much time…

    A smile spread upon the older womans face as she leaned back, relaxed, placing a hand on her daughters forearm to prevent her from finishing her sentence… And with ease, the words floated from her lips, the fierce green eyes fixated on the brunettes face, not wanting to miss the slightest of her reaction.

    Ive had the opportunity to meet her, you know, Maxime McFay, one of the most wonderfull moments of my life, we talked for hours and hours, about art, about life, about family…

    Bette felt how the rhythm of her heartbeat increased with every word the redhaired woman spoke, her hands, which she quickly placed on the table, were trembling with great force, and she felt how all the blood drained from her face… She felt the eyes of the artcollector burn on her, and knew she had to return the stare… Knowing, yet dreading, what would come in the rest of the sentence, Bette was ashtonished. It couldn’t be…

    Not quite the heartless woman people say she is, Miss Porter, your mother…

    It wasn’t untill those last 2 words reached her, seemingly through a blurr, that Bette was prepared to believe it… Peggy Peabody had just revealed the connection she had so carefully hidden ever since her mother had left her family to dedicate her life to the art… The art people like Peggy Peabody collected. Pressing her fingernails hard into the vulnurable flesh of her palms, the brunette did everything in her power to control her emotions.

    There was something to be said for her strenght, for the years of the strict regime her father had took upon him in his attempt to raise her, that, when she spoke, nothing of her inner turmoil, was heard…

    No… I have the franchise on that…

    She payed only attention to the woman who had adressed her, not unaware however, that the other two women had sat back, stunned… Helena, with open mouth, her eyes darting between her mother and the woman she thought her enemy. Tina, first shocked, but then shaking her head, and focussing again on the dish before her. The blondes full attention was still on Bette, the brunette could feel that, but she was thankfull that Tina tried to wash away the undercurrent of tension, by acting casually.

    1. Dear friend, dear friend… I’m so touched by your words, really I am. I didn’t read these pages yet, but I had to thank you for bringing such a beautiful ray of sunshine on this particular day I really needed one. Now, I will slowly savouring this chapter… Talk with you soon, dearest M. ! *hugs* – A.

    4. Oh… My… God… J, you’ve outdone yourself with this chapter! That was just brillant! So powerful and intense. I was on the edge of my seat through the whole journey! But with just the right amount of tension, humor and tenderness… Let me tell you the thing that amazed me the most with this chapter (well, one of the things!)… What were the realistic chances to write this chapter being as true to the characters (and by that I mean those from the show) as to the original movie?…. Not many indeed. Well, you did it, my dear! I was just stunned by how well thought the whole thing was… Everyone was being just who they are, and you still have an almost alike scene from the original movie. You are so talented!!! And of course, I love how you relate each event to the B&T’s interaction and relationship… Very beautifully written. As for the French references… Thanks to Therese Belivet for helping you out on this one, cause the result is awesome… One Bette Porter speaking French is definitely a must-read!!! Poor Tina, the fancy restaurant, food and company were probably nothing compared to the turmoil she must have felt when hearing “sa belle”. J, you have to update this very soon… Please. I’m so looking forward to the continuation of this, you’ve kept us hanging to the last word of this chapter… I know I’m being slightly unfaithful to BOF, but this is getting so very good and perfect!!! You are such a good writer! Thank you.

    6. My dear yound friend, so glad to see you had posted. It was so close to seeing the movie while reading your words. Hope to see more of your post. thanks so much

    7. “Slippery little suckers…” I love that!! You’ve made my day with this one hun! Shame when I got to the last page and had to start all over again ;) Per usual, can’t wait for the next “fix”.. i mean chapter ;)

    8. Your are forgiven because of this beautifully written chapter!! It was just awesome. Hope for a another post before 2008 : )! I just love the Bette and Tina connection. It so lovely and touching. Wonderful job!!! PPS!

    10. So happy to see your update. Loved this chapter and the way you are adapting the story. The emotional actions and reactions between the four ladies and how each affected the other was just perfect. Look forward to seeing the play for Tina between Bette and Helena. Peggy is as charming as ever.

    14. Oh how I hope you update this soon! This was an awesome chapter – this story just keeps getting better and better. Your writing is exquisite. I think Bette has a few fences to mend…and one very large wall that need to come down. She really needs to let her defenses down when she and Tina are alone. I think Tina may have some insight as to how to fix all of Bette’s problems; and Bette can for sure help Tina with hers. Please post soon JLB&T! My prayers are being sent for everyone in Tabasco, Mexico.

    15. Hey girl, I am glad to have read this chapter. I keep waiting to see if you have updated and I was happy to read it once I finally was able to read it. Keep it up because I can’t wait to see if or how Tina approaches Bette about her mother’s work.

    21. It is indeed so well written… seriously… so intense and love the tender interactions between both our fav gals. Argghh… I should be in the airport, checking in and taking my 13.5hours flight to UK now :P but too bad… my boss is still the one who decides everything… sigh~~~ Have a great weekend in Blackpool!

    22. Thanks for returning to us with this tale. I was hoping that you would. It works really well in keeping with the LWord characters. Hopefully you will follow up soon…please? Lin

    25. hey young lady! it’s always so good to read ur post! this one u have me in the edge of my bed reading and reading… Poor Bette but maybe Tina could make her feel better ;) don’t u think? thanks so much for such a good chapter and i hope u will enjoy blackpool as much as everyone else. hugs TAPS

    27. JLBT, what an amazing update. Your careful writing to unfold the same intensity as in the movie left us speechless. We’re just in awe of this brilliant chapter of yours, dear friend. PPS We do miss this story so much. Big hs & ks – Lucero & Marsha
