Laid Up: Another Season 3 – Chapter 29B
“Tell me what’s going on with you and Kit. She’s miserable. The woman was about to cry. I mean, Bette, really. What could she have possibly done that’s got you so pissed off? The last time you talked to her was when we found out about Marcus pulling out.” Tina laughed. “Marcus pulling out. Funny, huh?” Tina tried to make light of something that actually upset her. It would have been so easy using his sperm again. Angie would have a sister or brother who shared the same biological parentage. Oh, well.
“Yeah, funny,” Bette said dryly.
“Seriously, Bette–did you and Kit have a fight over the phone ‘cause when you got home that day you were giving her the silent treatment.”
Bette chewed on the inside of her cheek before she coolly stated, “She knows why.”
“No, she doesn’t. She’s as flummoxed as I am.”
“She knows, Tina. She totally knows.” Bette hoped to drop the subject.
There was one car in front of her and Bette honked loudly even though the light was already yellow. She had every intention of making the light. “Jesus, look at that.” She pointed with her hand at the license plate. “Take it back to Nebraska for Chrissake. What? They don’t have signal lights in Omaha? Welcome to California now go back fucking home.”
“Now, you’re in a bad mood.”
Bette raced west through the light as the cars heading north and south honked at her. “No, I’m not. I should be, but I’m not. I’m sorry.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Kit?” Bette took a deep breath. “Phyllis Kroll? Working at CU? Dealing with fucked up faculty, especially Jodi Lerner, but she’s not the only one? Marcus flaking on us? Trying to work on my reading for the wedding? Working on the book? Pick a mood-breaker.”
“Yeah. Okay, since we’re on Kit, let’s start there.”
“Tee,” Bette attempted to shut the conversation down.
“Bette?”
“All right. Whatever,” she began as she turned into the Cryobank’s small parking lot. “A few days ago, I found out that my sister hated me. She acts so fucking put out all the time like she’s misunderstood and unloved, but there was never a time I didn’t love Kit. When Daddy tried to keep me away from her, I always went to her. When she said not to call her Katy, I never did, not one time again. She was ‘Kit’ cause she was my older sister and that’s what she wanted and despite all the shit she pulled, I still loved her. Daddy didn’t like it, but I didn’t care. When I moved to LA, Daddy reminded me that Kit was out here and to keep my distance. I didn’t. I called her, welcomed her into my life. She was my sister. When I was a kid, I kinda thought she was cool. No matter how many times she-she let me down or did something outrageous, I loved her. It was not my fault that Daddy gave her a hard time. It certainly wasn’t my fault that he left her mother to be with mine. I was born four years after that. I don’t blame Mo for being born.”

‘ she looked at Tina and playfully accused, “Cougar.” ‘ – LOL – Tina certainly has come a long way from the first pages of ‘Laid Up’. – PortiaO, Thank you very much for producing all those wonderful pages!
I am awed. Incredible plotting, great pacing, wonderful imagery. And so hot. Thanks so much for this incredible chapter.
excellent as always buddy…you’re the greatest of the greatest if that makes sense lol i love this fic pps!
OH MY FUCKING GOD… that was … i have no words… i wish it didn’t end… that a scene i pray we see in the last eppy… loved it… and what a book you have here… it took a while to read… but i did…
Wow, I don’t know what to say. The detail you give to each character and storyline is breathtaking. What a beautiful imagination you have. I love your writing so much that I even wanted Helena’s and Dylan’s past life story to never end :). I’m a little bit nervous that someting will happen to Shay before Shane can take custody. Who’s the mystery man at Alice and Dana’s wedding? A long lost relative of Alice’s? Wow, Bette and Tina, effing hot. Thank you so much for the update. Don’t be gone too long :)
OMG!!!!!! I miss this story! Pretty please continue!
Wow I just finished reading. I agree with everyone. If you can please continue this.
Portia… translating “thank you” into all the known languages on this planet wouldn’t be enough at this point. I know I type it, and I certainly mean it, but it lacks… I don’t know anything else to say but that, though. So, again, thank you. You manage to get everything in there, and I don’t know why, but the “Sweatin to the 80’s” line made me giggle, a lot. You have a very visual style of writing, I’m right there with the characters. I see them, hear them perfectly. I love the way you write, I love this story. Thanks (again) for sharing with us.
What can I Say – wow – great update thank you so much.
A fan fiction timeline: In the beginning: Bring it all on. … After Portia: It’s done been broughten.
Yes, you’ve got me googling folks that don’t exist. You’ve created an entire world, fleshed it out and populated it with people whose lives are fully integrated into it. You’ve made TLW, “Do what it (should)do”.
I have totally been floored by this story!! this last chapter totally knocked my socks off!!! I’m so glad Bette had the change of heart about mo…. this should be really interesting! PPS
loved it!!!! pps
I miss this story. :( It’s so awesome and realistic. And it shows so much growth in the characters while staying true to them at the same time. And the storylines are just fantastic. *sigh* Yeah, I miss this story.
You have to finish this! I read this entire series in 6 weeks, and can’t wait to see what happens in the end. So much better than the show.
