Till We Meet Again // A B/T Beginning Story Chapter 27
“Being with you makes me happy.”
Somewhere between Los Angeles and New York
“We need to do something. This is getting out of control. I was calling you for advice but you seem to have the same problem on your hands as well.”
“But what can we do Kit? Your sister is so stubborn—she is not about to admit her mistakes. Tina hasn’t done anything wrong, so she won’t make it up to Eric. That just leaves us with Alice and Eric. They would have to make the first move.”
“Right, but how do we get the point across to them?”
“How about we let them get the point across to each other?”
“Now why would they do that? They hardly know each other?”
Jack chuckled. “Oh yes, but do you remember our problem-solution method. Two strangers, one circumstance, friendship and then problem-solved?
(Yes, that worked so wonderfully the last time…)
“Again Jack. How and why are they going to meet?”
“You leave that up to me darling.”
At Madison Square Park
Tina watched in awe as Bette held the attention of her bratty ten year olds, teaching them how to draw a tree precisely. Only Bette could make such a dull subject interesting.
“All trees are different—you’ll notice the difference in colors, sizes and even shapes. Is it irregular, shaped like an ice-cream cone, a club—no not the type where you go to drink and dance—maybe even a cloud, or a heart,” she looked at Tina meaningfully and continued, “even the trunks are not all brown. Today, I’ll teach you a 3-step technique of drawing and painting trees in watercolor. And I bet everyone—all of you could probably do a better job than most of my college students. All you need is a sketchbook, a brush and 3-4 colors.” The students scrambled about to grab their materials, listening and watching in rapt attention as Bette slipped into her artist mode and painted a tree true-to-life, within minutes.
Tina grabbed a brush and some colors, deep in thought, as she followed the steps that Bette had outline. She was convinced that something had to be horribly wrong for Bette to not make it as a great artist. She frowned as she thought back to the phone call from Helena Peabody.

You continue to outdo yourself with each chapter. I am in awe of your talent. Drama, slow burning passion, sarcasm, love and laughter – you’ve combined them all for one incredible fic. I second claricestarling: You rock!
Oh WOW, this story is just fantastic especially the way u write it, the love the fun and the dialogues are just… I am going away for a while and keep thinking that I am going to miss this story but then I will have so many chapters to read together:))) thank u
Hey ladies watch this:)Most intelligent people in the world, it on u tubehttp://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=1twC_3a5Ubw
Seems our darling Tina is now pregnant, which is definitely not the time for her to be pregnant. At least that is the only thing that explains early morning naseua. Hope she will still leave Eric for Bette and that Alice will fall in love so that Bette will not feel too much guilt over wanting a divorce. Really enjoying this story and love the way you write our girls so in love. Post when you can Maverick.
ha ha Mav….you know when I saw the rating on this I thought whoa she’s really moving these guys forward…but after a few sentences I realized…yes but this is MAV of course she is just a big TEASE…..great chap once again. I really like this story…I like how even through the intense fear they are still exploring, sometimes the fear of the unknown is too overwhelming and people turn away from something that could be so wonderful without even giving it a chance. Such a hard life we all live sometimes…I have felt that same strong love for someone before and it was so short lived because the fear was too overwhelming for the other person and they ran…I mean ran like an olympian leaving me with a hole so big it’s still empty. Perhaps in the future that fear will subside and things will still be there….(shrugs) doesn’t get any easier that is for sure…..thanks for letting me live it through this story anyway…so many similarities it is freaky.. :)
OMG tina can’t be pregnant?!?!?!?! love this story more and more! :)PPS
Oh Maverick, you and the chapter are anything but terrible… a frustrating and torturous tease perhaps, but never terrible! These last three chapters have been a savory treat to read. Love the way you write B&T, so sexy and adorable. I’m with the others, though in feeling uneasy about Tina’s nausea… no need to add that drama… can’t you cut the girls a break?? Look forward to seeing how you reveal the effects these ancillary relationships. Thanks for sharing such an amazing story!
That was awesome, let end the drama and let them be happy together. PPS!
love it!
Okay, first off, no boulders. I need more chapters! Secondly, *why* is Tina nauseous first thing in the morning? I *really* don’t like that. Thirdly, just *what* were these two thinking, leaving the kiddies unchaperoned? Even with The Blackbeast gone, that’s just irresponsible, naughty girls. Thirdly: who is this mystery person that Helena hired? And I really hope that whoever it is, exposes her, and that somehow gets Bette’s work recognized. Fourth… I feel bad for Alice. I do, but… I hope she finds someone else. Fifth, Tina and Bette are just too sweet. Sixth, this wasn’t quite the NC-17 I thought it would be. But I will wait, I know it’s coming, I think (hope!). Seventh, Jack and Kit’s plans…. oh, the irony. (And btw, I’m not spoiled, the movie came on a few weeks back, but I didn’t wanna watch. I read the summary on the program guide and realised I didn’t care, cos your version is all I’m interested in.) Eighth… thanks for the chapter. I think I’ve said enough by now, surely? Post when you can, thanks!
Hey, thanks for a wonderfully sweet chapter! And for your shoutout. Yeah, I’m a hopeless romantic and I think that obstacles like being already married or somehow unavailable make the most romantic stories… Anyway, I loved this chapter and I also think that those two are not very responsible adults, especially in a place like Madison Square Park, but I laughed it off when I read your comment about it… And aren’t we the least responsible readers for laughing it off and letting go just because it’s Tibette! LMAO!!! … I like this kind of slowburn, and with these two, and the time it took to reunite them, you don’t want to put them into bed too quickly… I love your version as it drifts a lot from the original movie, and that’s a real pleasure to read. By the way, I love these bollywood dances! They’re so fun, especially the one in the club with Jack and… what’s his name, Eric’s counterpart. And you being a bollywood fan, have you heard about a movie called “Boys”? It’s such a silly but fun movie. It’s not exactly a Bollywood, it has a lot of sex allusions and was censored in South India and Sri Lanka!… Thanks! K ;)
Great dialogue… lets kick Helena’s a$$…
Okay, I re-read my comment, and thought it might sound a bit ambiguous… Just to make things clear, “Boys” is not what one might think, LMAO… No, it’s about teenagers and some kind of Boy’s band and there is a love story between the main singer and the girl… Some chick movie if you prefer… Just thought I would clarify, LOL!
Just Hope that Alice find out that she can’t luce without Dana and let bette go. Kick Helena royal A$$ good. Just let TiNa and Bette be happy.
I’m obviously so pleased with the chapter, Mav, that I lost my ability to count to eight. Or nine. Or whatever I was trying to do… still, post soon. cheers
OMG ! Where to start ?… Where to start ? Well, maybe by the beginning, Im’ with JP22 I don’t like the fact that Tina feels nauseous in the morning, especially now that she realized she only wanted that child to fill the void in her life. DRAMA ! DRAMA ! DRAMA ! But always the best kind with you, so I don’t worry… Anyway, in the words of Bette ” I thoroughly enjoyed myself” too reading your new chapter. This was fantastic ! In fact, just when I was starting to dread the fact that you were going to make the biggest “mistake” of all by having your heroines have their first time in a public place, against a wall ( I can definitely think of more romantic places ! ) and I was starting to be mad at Bette ; they stop and Bette apologizes for her behavior ( I thought she was sooo cute when doing that btw ). I’m really sorry that I even thought for a second that you could do that, Maverick. You have been “telling” this story in the most perfect, most beautiful way I could ever imagine. Oh, and of course this continues to be absolutely hilarious too. I know I’m not the only one, but a minute before you mentioned B and T being the worst chaperones ever, I was thinking the exact same thing. On a sad note, I’m starting to feel really bad for Alice for you can totally see she genuinely loves and cares for Bette… I really hope she and Dana fall in love with each other. Al is just too perfect right now ( which, btw, I thought was something that I would never ever say about Alice… LOL !! ).Anyway, I’ve said it before, but I love everything about this story and the way you write it, Maverick. The only thing… Too bad there are no Bollywood dances here ( LOL ! ), I really love them too ! In fact, we planned on watching “Om Shanti Om” tonight with a few friends. I hear it’s great. But I’m sure it won’t be as delightful as reading this fic of yours. Thank you, Maverick. You rock !
