She raised her head to look my in the eyes. “You should get dressed. I will make myself at home.”
“OK. There is cold water in the fridge, help yourself.”
The second time I emerged from the bathroom, she was on the sofa. She had a water bottle open on the floor next to her and the book open to where she had left off at. The two hours flew by with neither of us talking. She seemed intent on not looking at me.
“My time is up.” I said to her. The pad in front of me had nothing but sketches of her mouth.
“Already?” She stood gathering her purse in the same motion. She all but ran to the door.
“Did I do something to upset you?”
She kept her back to me. “No.”
I stepped forward wanting to be able to smell her. Like an addict, I just need a small hit of coconut to get me through the moment. “I can’t help but feel as if you’re upset with me.”
She turned to me. A slow smile spread across her face, the first I had seen that day. “You did nothing. I’m just very busy. See you tomorrow, same time.”
I stood dumbfounded as she walked out. She had given me the same smile I had seen her give the media. I would have felt better if she a punched me in the stomach. I knew I had no right to feel betrayed. I mean we hardly knew each other. Why should it matter if some actress lied to me? Why should it matter if she didn’t smile at me the way she had yesterday? Why should it matter if she didn’t want to talk to me? Why should it matter if she didn’t sit next to me? Why should it matter if she didn’t get close enough to me to let her smell drive me crazy?
Seemingly without my knowledge, I picked up a pillow and threw it across the room. “What’s wrong with me?” I plopped down on the chaise and picked up the book. She hadn’t gotten any further then she was yesterday. “If you weren’t reading what were you doing?” I lay down on the sofa assuming the position she had been in. James had left the door to the backroom open. From her vantage point on the sofa she could see the collection of nudes I was working on. Many of the nudes were of couples. The one easiest to see from the chaise was the one of two women. “I wonder.”

Mmmmmmmm coconut. Why do I get the feeling that they will hook up once and that’s it? Or they will only hook up when they get to work together?
I’ve known both actors and artists and sometimes they can be a bit impractical. If the painter managed her time better, she might have been able to do more than snooze in their time together.
Yea!!!! Your back, better than ever!! Of course. I would say to enjoy just being lazy you know school is going to start soon and well I know how that all goes! Love the story, I always love your stories.
This such a unique story. I guess the actress is questioning her desire for the artist. It sounds like she would like to be more than just be painted by the artist. I can’t wait for the P’s to roll around. Hurricane Patty! Hopefully it will just float around out in the open ocean and not cause any harm or damage to anybody.
I really liked this. She seems very human. Lord girl you have us all on pins a neddles. thanks
So I just finished the last chapter. I just thought I would tease you a bit.
Great Post.
What 2 0f 3? I really love this story, it’s just brilliant. More PLEASE :)
Yep love this story!!!!!!!!!
Oh that was so cute! Thanks for the update! I am waiting for your next post. Just a question though… Are thesae two going to remain nameless or would I be correct in concluding that Bette is the artist and Tina is the Actress? Or are you going to throw me for a loop and twist things up, making these characters I would never think they were?Whatever and whomever they may be, I like this story. Keep it coming. =)
Valerie, this is really really good. Now that you have posted a second chapter I can honestly say that I have missed your writing. Please continue writing your stories for us because they are just wonderful.
This is so beautiful and romantic. Movie hopping is fun, isn’t it?
2 of 3….def not enough chapters to this story…pls pls consider more!!!!
Lovin’ this story! Thanks for sharing it.
L.O.V.E. it
This story is just great. I’m an artist also, it’s been a long time since I’ve done portraits and nudes. If she’s only finished with her eyes and mouth, she better get going to make the auction. But I guess if any of the models I worked with looked like Bette? (I’m assuming) I suppose I wouldn’t be getting a whole lot done either. Love the story!!
definitely have missed you around here. This is really great. My mind-Bette is the artist. Tina the actress.
