Chapter 13
"Instead of coming over tonight, let me take you both out for dinner," Bette spoke into the receiver of her office phone. Thursday evenings together were becoming a welcome new routine.
"Angie has a soccer game right after school…it’s why we were going to be late," Tina replied. "It would be great if you could come watch it with me."
"And we’ll go out from there?"
"Somewhere casual though," Tina confirmed. "Angie will be in her uniform."
"I’ll be home all afternoon," Bette said. "Can I pick you up on my way to the game?"
"Sure, if you can get away that early. It starts at four."
"I’ll be there at twenty to four," Bette said. "See you then."
They hadn’t seen each other since Saturday night. But the week so far had been punctuated with frequent phone calls of an unremarkable nature. The everyday. The mundane.
That morning, Tina had awoken with a start, and quickly recalled the dream that had her so flustered. Pictures of the dream flashed into her mind’s eye as she continued to awaken.
"Holy fuck," she muttered under her breath. She had shaken off the feeling of being aroused and went about her day without giving the dream another thought.
Tina heard the knock on her front door at 3:30 that afternoon. She wasn’t quite ready yet, because she was sure she still had more time.
"Come in!" she hoped Bette would hear her call from upstairs.
"Hello?" Bette replied, calling back as she entered.
"Come up, I can hardly hear you," Tina said.
Bette slipped off her sandals and made her way upstairs.
"Where are you Tee?"
"Here."
Bette followed the sound of Tina’s voice to the doorway of the main washroom.
"Sorry I’m a bit early," Bette began, leaning up against the door frame as Tina put the finishing touches on a subtle shade of lipstick.
"It’s okay, I’m almost ready," Tina replied. "I wondered if I got the time wrong."
She turned to take a step and was suddenly bombarded by images and sensations of her morning dream. She stopped in her tracks. Of course she knew exactly why she was bombarded by those images. Bette had featured quite prominently in the dream, and here she was, a real life reminder of the inclination of her subconscious.

Slow and steady wins the race, right? I like the pace of the story and will miss it when it ends.
I love this story and your writing, I wish it would go on forever!
this story is touching me on a personal level, i just wish that life was just like your fiction LOL waiting for more :)
You have been away far too long to even hint at this story ending! I have found myself reminded of how engaging I always find your character dialogue. Thank you so much for taking the time to return.
It’s probably best they not forget their rekindled friendship in what they’re trying to explore. I like how the story’s going and I’ve been enjoying reading it. Take your time, we only just got you back! Thanks for posting, jks. :)
Don’t end it to soon. I have been enjoying your writting so much. This is a great story. I hope you have another story in the works.
I love this story and the pace. Please don’t end it too soon and if you feel you must, then I hope you’ll bring us another story to follow this one. Glad you’re back and enjoy reading your stories. :)
I like this story! The details make me feel like I am watching a movie. This back and forth which obviously comes from fear is something that happens a lot in relationships and I can’t wait to find out how Bette and Tina will deal with it and how/if they will manage to make something good out of it.
Please take your time,no need to end this great story.Please don`t leave the site again,I`m so glad you are back.
They are making progress
Great update. I love the dialogue between the two and Angie throwing her two cents in on top of it. That was a nice flow to the story. Its great that they are working on their friendship as I see that the possibility of more exits. Great writing!
You take the time you feel is necessary to tell your story. I love the slow and in depth look you take at the progression of their relationship. I am so glad that you didn’t have the 2 of them just jump into bed right away without solving any of their issues. Thanks for the post!
Read all your updates on this story. Love it. Thank you
Ditto to all the comments above me. I love this story and hope it will not end any time soon. The way you write the story feels real and they are doing what is necessary to rekindle their friendship and their love for a new relationship and family all together in one house. Angie’s comment was priceless, she is just too cute. Thanks for coming back to us and posting this wonderful story. Please stay with us and continue to write.
left something out. What’s not to like, I don’t understand that at all. This is one of the best stories on this site. It’s not hurried, they are taking things slowly to reconnect with each other and rekindle their love without everyone else’s inteference, they are coparenting their child with much success. They are doing so well with rearing her that she wants them to “not gang up on her all the time.” lol. Typical child. I can’t imagine anyone not liking this story on some level. It’s wonderful. Keep writing, we’ll stay with you. Besides you have and have had well over a thousand views since the story started. That, to me, says that there are more enjoying the story than not. However, we respect your right not to continue if you can’t for whatever reason. But we sure hope you will stay with us. Thanks.
Thanks JKS for the update … Great conversations, sound so lively and real! :-) … PPVS?! :-) … Uhm… Excuse me… End?! I hope the end of the story is feasible through some long chapters in between this one to the finale as frankly I feel the story is just begin … A good thought will be: great!! that means you have wrote the stories … which means we can have more often update and longer chapter?! ✌😁 hehehe…
