“Porter! I’m sorry!” The blonde tried again. “Ouch! It bit me!”
“Crabs can’t bite.” Sam grinned.
“But..”
“Suck it up you big baby! Or I’ll have them put one inside your mouth!” Bette snapped. “Shane, put this one on top of her nose.. it’s cute.” She peered inside the container and smiled.
“Babe! Look what I caught!” An ecstatic Tina bounded up to them, holding a stick in her hand. She pointed at the thing moving at the end of it.
“Hey.. it’s a worm..” Bette smirked devilishly, wiggling her brows at a petrified Alice.
“BEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!”
————————-
“So how are you feeling?”
“Better now. It still hurts a bit but the first-aid guy gave me something for the pain.” With slow movements, Bette stepped out of the hotel bar and welcomed the cool night air that greeted her out in the balcony. It was a welcome reprieve from the thick suffocating smoke that Shane and her seemingly unending pack of cigarettes had been churning out for the past three hours. Limping a bit, she hobbled over to the railing and leaned unto it for support.
“That’s good. But I sent for a doctor just in case. He’ll be flying in from the capital so expect him in about an hour.”
“Sure, thanks daddy.” Bette smiled but winced when a dull pain throbbed in her backside. It was dialed down to a manageable degree now, thankfully – but she still found it hard to sit down. “By the way, any updates on the thing..?” She started carefully.
The man on the other line coughed and cleared his throat. “No.. none yet.” He answered quickly. If his daughter was sitting face to face with him right now, she would surely catch his fib by the way his eyes darted back and forth uncomfortably. For a shrewed businessman who was used and immune to lying, he was surely finding it hard to do so tonight.
“Okay, you’ll call me when there’s anything new?” The girl asked, a little preoccupied with her own discomfort to notice her old man’s obvious unease.
“Of course.” Once again, another lie. Pausing for a while, he spoke up again a few moments later. “Tell me something..”
“Hm?”
“Accident aside, are you having fun?” Melvin asked, trying to lighten the mood. And plus, he wanted and needed to know.
Sighing, Bette turned around and gazed at the bar through the glass door. Inside, a tipsy Dana was singing karaoke on top of the stage while a laughing F4 and a cheering Tina looked on. Smiling at the sight, Bette gave her answer. “Yeah.. I am..” She said truthfully.
At the other side of the world, Melvin mirrored her own smile as he leaned back against his office chair. That’s all he wanted to know for now. “I’m happy to hear that.” He admitted in a gentleness that his tone lacked for years. Gazing at the report before him and the figures it contained, the man let out an inaudible breath. A carefree week without worries.. he wanted to give that gift to his daughter. She needed the break, she needed the rest.. cause once she gets back next week and finds out the truth, she’ll be sucked into a world that she was half-prepared for at best..

HILARIOUS! You are really good at this. This is a perfect way to start a weekend. Thanks for posting twice! :) Happy weekend!
“…”
just caught up on the double post :-)brilliant, loving this story glad its back. PPS
i can’t express how happy i am that this story is back, i actually laughed out loud when bettes bikini bottoms came off after being worried that we were heading for a major drama with bette being seriously hurt – thats why your stories are sooooo good alch cos you can go from one from one extreme to the other in one paragraph! pps, oh and im sure i’ve told you before that “your Bette” is just about my favourite one ever in fanfic land…and believe me, i’ve read plenty!! pps!
incredible as usual Alch. Love this story with no doubt. Thank you for the sequel. And a long one. You can hvemore pages if you want :-) PPVS
I was seriously worried that Bette was hurt… but what did happen was so much funnier. Alice, buried in sand and hermit crabs (shudder) for merely *offering* to pee on Bette’s jellyfish sting? Yikes! Oh wait… Al did take that photo, didn’t she? I am however, worried about whatever it is that has Melvin lying to Bette. Is it a takeover of PGC? Board’s vote of no confidence? What’s going on? And what is Bette going to have to do to fix it? Agggghh, questions! I can’t wait for more posts, so we get answers. Thanks, Alchemy!
Great job!!! U still got it. Sexy, funny & had me on the edge of my seat. I really enjoyed it & look forward to reading more. Alice offering to pee on Bette-good stuff. Love it.
Just cathing my breath from laughing. However, seems Bette is up for a tough time. Waiting for more
I think Alice was just red tagged!! lol And is daddy broke or the company going under?? I’m so hooked again!! PPS:)
So glad to see this story back. It has been one of my favorites…
I’m SOOO glad to see you and your story back! I don’t care which length you give us just as long as you give us the story! :)
i am so happy you have decided to post again, i have so missed your writing and your humorous take on these characters!!
That was freaking funny and awesome. Good to see you again with this story again and love it. Please post more, thanks!
This situation, whatever it is, does not sound good. The company seems to be in trouble, which could lead to lack of funds. Bette has already survived that once but it would be nice if she would not have to do that again. Your humor is wonderful.
Just soooo happy you are writing again love the story
Alice and Shane together are so funny, lol. I liked the storyline and I’m looking forward to read what will happen with Bette and Melvin. u so good writer Alchemy10 :D
Laughed my ‘jelly’ off~You’re really good at this!!I like how Bette is finally getting some fatherly love…The family dynamics between the whole group is just awesome. PPS~
I envision Leisha Hailey peeing on Jennifer Beals…..the whole being able to put a face to your characters makes this terribly funny. I’m guessing that Mel is having an issue w/business and it’s not going to be life as $$$ usual for Bette. I hope he doesn’t die. Tks for the long post and future updates!!!!
2 POST IN ONE DAY-YOU ARE SO AWEOME!!!this was a real fun one to read-Alice is just too much!! Thank you!!
