Saturday Night’s Invite (Time of Day 30)
Tina awoke to a knock at the door.
She got up, ensuring the that robe, which was still all that she was wearing, was wrapped securely.
“Hey, whassup?” It was Papi.
“Hey,” Tina responded, not really sure what was going on.
“I am your dinner transportation.”
“Dinner. Right.” Bette’s invitation. It was all coming back to her now. “You’re going to have to give me a few moments to get dressed.”
“You know, for the ladies, I do have a clothing-optional policy in the limousine.”
Tina shot Papi a look on that comment.
“I’m just saying,” Papi muttered as Tina headed down the hallway. “And I think Porter would thank me.”
Ignoring Papi’s suggestions, Tina tried to clear her head enough to come up with the appropriate outfit.
The invitation that Jacques had for her asked if Ms. Tina Kennard and Miss Angelica Porter Kennard would be available that evening for supper at the Porter residence.
The anger at the prior weekend’s treatment was fading, due not only to the time, but also due to the relaxing aftermath of the body treatments that Bette had provided for Tina earlier in the day.
After fussing with the contents of her closet, bouncing from casual to semi-casual to semi-formal, Tina finally settled upon a sleeveless shirtdress in a mid-blue. Perhaps not the proper color if they were going out, but something that should be good for a little more than a casual evening at home.
First, a light application of makeup. Then she got dressed, checking out the choice in the mirror; pleased with what she saw.
For an accent, Tina selected a string of freshwater pearls that Bette had given her after they’d been together a couple years. The gift wasn’t given on one of their major celebratory days; it wasn’t an anniversary or birthday so it didn’t come with the heavy memories that she felt were part of some of her accessories. Still, it was something from Bette.
Thinking of Bette, what was Bette’s expectation of the evening? Tina wondered if she should bring anything with? Would she be staying over? Was it presumptuous to wonder if she would be staying over? Did she even want to stay over.

OMG you are writing another chapter as we speak to post tonight,right?
Well, just my humble opinion, but I say, Tina, get up and go…don’t let a massage, house cleaning and a bottle of red wine solve all your problems. And Bette needs to do more than set up a relaxing experience for her, she needs to live her life and control her temper so that she proves to Tina that she isn’t going to snap over some hear say…I’m glad they are on the right road, I just think they should work a bit harder at it. Bette she persue Tina on dates and Tina should play hard to get. Love the story, please post soon…
Go home Tina!!! You have nothing to gain by staying!! Don’t be so easy! Well ,take it slowly, Bette hasn’t even rebounded from Jodie, and here she is begging you … (didn’t mean to be so opinionated)…but they have very few times left to repair their relationship … the love will always be there but sometimes the drama can kill a good thing…
Forgot to say …love the story!, I smile “Bette-Like” when I see a new post! Until the next “Time”….
Tantalizing.
WOW that was just lovely! I so hope this is how the story pans out next year! PPS
My thoughts in song: Should I stay or should I go nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww? I actually agree with a couple of prior commenters. Jodi left like, 15 seconds ago and now Bette is wanting Tina. Or maybe I just put too much value on sex. *shrugs*
I can’t BELIEVE I’m saying this.. but Tina should haul her ass home. Try some dating Bette with out sex involved to see if they can get over their issues. At this point we haven’t even had them discuss anything major. Plus, I think Bette needs to prove she wants Tina.. only Tina. And is willing to trust her above others. Only a few days ago Bette was trusting her slimy ex-Jodi over the mother of her child. That was way too sketch to forget about after a day of some pampering. PPS.
I would be very surprised if Tina stays over. This story is great. PPS.
Tina’s gonna leave…I just know she will. She should anyway. One day of pampering doesn’t wash all of the problems. They should date. Can’t wait to see what happens. Love this story.
STAY TINA… a little bit of loving will help break the barriers…it doesn’t mean T has to move back in etc but it helps overcome the hurts to love them away and brings them to a deeper more spiritual level with one another rather than the focus on ‘she did this, and I did this’…in fact I thought B over-reacted to the ‘more babies thing’ but it seems both of them want to hang onto their reservations…move on I say.
sex to me is the art of loving, B loves T and T loves B…love each other and stop the old mind from putting up inconsequential barriers like they did to each other in s1-s3…like Bette would really like another child and so would T so whats the friggin’ hassle Bette Porter????? Tina loves Bette so again whats the frickin’ hassle Tina Kennard? grow up and date…dating nowadays usually includes intimacy…holding hands, kissing, making love…doesn’t it?????
WOW!i really want then to be together but,why rush it isnt that whats been done in the past.dont be the rebound women its soo not worth it. go home tina. excellent story.p.p.s.
As much as I want Tina to stay it is probably not a good idea for that to happen. Both need a little more time to work on their issues. Besides if it is worth it to both of them then a little extra time away from each other would help their effort in the long run.
Stay and just hold each other. They should take it slow and enjoy the courtship. Thanks pseud..PPS
i think i’m in minority here but if i was tina i would say YES…
Captivating…hope you’ll post the next one soon. Thanks.
Love this story soooo much. And I’m with Janbear … “stay”ing doesn’t necessarily mean shagging all night long. They can should hold each other all night long, that sort of intimacy … ‘course, either way is fine, staying and just sleeping or stayng and doing other things. or not staying. i just love this story so much …
TEASE!!!! But I so Love it!!!! Thanks PPS
Staying doesn’t mean sex. But with the wine and how she’s feeling more relaxed around Bette, it seems like it could happen and that wouldn’t be what they need now. Tina should stay if only to make herself feel more secure in starting over with Bette. Anyway I’m so glad you updated. Thanks.
I think that should probably be a (reluctant) no, unless she’s staying in the guest room. They’ve got too much ground to cover to erase it all with a (granted, maybe not-so) quick shag. Wanting to and agreeing to start over is a big step. They know they love each other, so there’s that to fall back on. That’s at least something, isn’t it? Small moves. Great post, pseud, more (I posted on the other mini-chap already) when you can, please. Thanks
IMO You are a great writer and They should keep talking and then sleep in one another’s arms – sex definitely but later now COMMUNICATION but commitment.
nope were the ones being spoiled. thanks.
Sometimes jet lag, waking up at 3 a.m. can be a good thing, like when I get to catch up on this story. : )
Good chapter!
