THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD CHP 34
“I need to make an announcement “
“Sure Tina –what’s up “
Tina looked at Bette and was instantly reassured by the love and support that shone in Bette’s dark eyes
“Its simple really – we went to the hospital this morning for Bette’s check up and for something else – for my first sonogram. I’m pregnant as well — in less than a year we will have two children “
**********************************************
There was a silence after Tina’s announcement that felt to Bette like it went on forever. She slipped her hand into Tina’s and rubbed the silver band on Tina’s left hand ring finger.
Helena was the first one to get up and move across
“Well done – I’m delighted — its marvellous news for both of you.”
Tina stood up and they hugged.
“You knew all along Peabody “ Tina whispered
“I did but its still marvellous news and I am no less thrilled for you both. Do not lose what you have now Tina – I would give up every last dime I have to experience the love that you share with Bette “
Tina nodded – she was more than lucky – she was blessed to have Bette and a family. Shane got up and walked across – she pulled Tina into an embrace
“I could not be happier for you Tina – how are things ? “
“Better – we are talking more “
Shane smiled across at Bette who was still sitting in her seat but was beaming with pride – there was a small tear trickling down her face. Bette Porter was a very happy woman – Shane got to her knees and rest her hands on Bette’s legs
“It’s the best news Bette “
As Shane was crouching talking to Bette, Lara had come across and was hugging Tina and telling her that it was the best news she had heard in a long time. Bette glanced across to Alice who was sitting staring at them
“Come on Alice — say something “ Bette called to her oldest friend. If anyone would ask the telling question it would be The Al. Helena grinned

ALICE SPEECHLESS! AWSOME. ally we miss ya sooo much drink lots of fluids to beat the HEAT.please post soon,maybe the L-WING TOO PLEASE
Alice is lucky that she only fell in the pool and did not have Bette foot up her ass. The baby shower sounds so fun and exciting. It will be interesting to see how Bette reacts to getting hitched again. Hopefully she will go ahead and do it and not turn around and walk out.
Good chapter. I agree with snQQpy and let see whats next, thanks!
I think this time alice went to far with her comment, maybe she didn’t like the baby’s father but Tina is her friend and she must to think in that fact. I know that B&T are trying so hard to go over this and sometimes is difficult but you are doing a really great job
I should be jumping up and down over the fact that I’m first, but I need more coffee.
great writing as usual ally; alice needs to be more sensitive and keep her mouth shut; i’d do more than toss her in the pool…a real friend would think b4 they speak…love the other characters…not really wanting b and t to move to london but it’s your story…
Sounds to me like Bette hasn’t quite gotten over how Tina got pregnant and is transferring her anger to Alice. If seems B&T were expecting Alice to react like Alice, so why get angry with her? Why provooke her to make the kind of statement you can predict and then condemn her for it? And why dole out the info in little bits if you know there will be questions and/or assumptions? Actually, in her assumption that Tina was preggers by Henry, she gave Tina more credit than she really deserved. Plus, maybe it isn’t that much fun to always be the butt of the standing joke and end up in the pool every time. True enough that Alice should acquire more tact than the average 8 year old, but my sympathy is with her.
Excellent Chapter, and while I agree with what funnyone is saying or should I say writing, I think that Bette was upset about what ALice said specifically in regards to it being HEnery’s baby. You know the baby will be dumb, BEtte’s will be smart, etc.. AND I think they wanted ALice to get her comments out of the way becuase they were going to tell the girls it wasn’t HEnry’s, right?So anywho…I’m ridiclous today Can’t wait for the next chapter..so TIna is planning a wedding huh? cool!
Man what I read what AL said I was left with a look and the words coming out my mouth that goes along the lines of…..”WTF is wrong with ur mouth girl?” UPDATE SOON, WAS MISSED, ALSO HOW BOUT A CHAPTER OF THE L WING?????
I can see where Alice would think it was Henry’s baby, but what she said about how the baby would turn out was not right. I know they are all like family, but it really isn’t anyone elses business how Tina got pregnant. Bette is the only one that has a right to voice how she feels about that and her and Tina have already talked about it. Everyone should just take a look at how happy Bette and Tina are and be happy for them. I believe everything happens for a reason and you just have to take one day at a time. Ally, you are a great author and this was another one of many in a line of wonderful chapters. Thank you for your stories and always keep writing because you bring so much enjoyment to those of us who read your work.
omg alice had a death wish on her did sheman tht was close call. t is so lucky to have sumone who loves her and protects hr no matter whti love this story so muchpost l wing soon too coz i am missin it
Cant wait for the proposal, where is the L wing
Man that was rough. I was sitting here saying, “Oh shit…OH SHIT.” I expected Alice to either come out of her state of shock and be really thrilled or ask how it happened. I really did not see her outburst coming. I can’t say I’m totally over how it happened, but that was harsh and cold.
Great chapter Ally. Alice was really funny :))
For a while there I was get allyemmerson withdrawal pangs b/c you hadn’t posted in your usual pace. But I can understand wanting a break especially when it is so hot. I really enjoy reading this story cuz you have these twists and turns that make it interesting and fun.
WTF ?!? I’m with Alice!!!! The last man that Tina was with, that the “gang” is aware of, is Henry. So how in the hell did Tina think she could announce that she is pregnant and expect everyone, including Alice to ASS-U-ME it’s NOT Henry’s child? I’m sorry, but EVERYONE knows that Alice is not the most tactful person in the world. Tina’s news propelled Alice to become speechless, and they should have left her that way. IMO, they ALL got what they deserved and I feel that it was EXTREMELY unfair for all of them to expect Alice to fake what she really felt. They wanted her to find her voice and be as thrilled as Helena and Shane. If she had opened her mouth with a phony congratulations, would she have really been a FRIEND ???? I think the onus of this snafus belongs on Tina; not Alice !!!!!!!!!
fun to see alice speechless LOL…can’t wait for the baby shower and all the surprises
Alice was very harsh and deserved more than falling into a pool, she needed a bitch slap actually. She has a really big mouth and I’m sure it will take Bette longer to forgive Al for this one! Excellent story though, please keep this story and the L wing going! :-)
VERY GOOD chapter Ally. Seeing Alice speechless was PRICELESS, but she was TOTALLY out of line with what she said when she finally spoke. As a friend and family you either supprot the couple or shut up and hope for the best. Even if it was Henry’s child, it is up to B&T if they are willing to accept that and live with it. The fact that they present a united and happy front when they made the announcement indicates that they are happy or atleast at peace with Tina being pregnant and the new addition to their family. You don’t throw the baby out with the bath water Alice. Please continue with this story as well as the L Wing :o)
