Till We Meet Again // A B/T Beginning Story Chapter 26
Tina: “I don’t think irritate is the right word baby …Titillate maybe? Stimulate even.”
Why isn’t Bette reacting? Does she not want this as much as I do?
Bette: “Uh… I see, you mean I provoke you. Well, I am supposed to say thought-provoking things. I am a professor after all.”
Tina: “Bette, you can’t possibly be that dense. You know what I am saying to you.”
She is purposely avoiding any discussion about sex. Why?
Bette: “Of course T. You mean to say that I am intelligent and have a lot of intriguing, mind-boggling things to say that engages your mind, and makes you think. I get it.”
Tina: “Yes … certainly mind-boggling and also mood-ruining. Anyway Bette, it’s past midnight… I have school early in the morning.”
Maybe I need to be direct and blunt and we need to talk about this in person. We need to talk about our future.
Bette: “Don’t go.”
Do you hear yourself Porter? When did you get so whiny and needy?
Tina: “Don’t be silly. We do have to go to work. We need to make a living to survive. What did you say that one time? Love doesn’t pay the bills.”
Bette: “No, but having a rich wife or husband certainly does.”
See, problem-solved.
Tina: “Bette!”
Bette: “Just kidding. Can you meet me in the morning? Else I don’t know how I’ll get through the day without seeing you.”
Tina: “Someone is needy … Bette, you don’t have classes till noon, why don’t you get some sleep or spend more time in the studio if you can’t sleep?”
Bette: “You don’t want to see me in the morning?” She pouted.
Tina: No, stop pouting. It’s not going to work. We have a field-trip today and leave really early. I won’t be able to see you baby. Not till tonight.
Bette: “WHAT? And you are telling me now? Where are you going?”
Tina: “Sorry, it completely slipped my mind. I’ve been busy running after random people at the train station.”
Bette: “Don’t remind me… I am still mad about it.”
Tina: “Uh-huh, you didn’t seem so mad when you were kissing me for the whole world to see. The station agent had to break us apart and threaten to fine you!”
Bette: “Fine us. Why would I be mad about some beautiful woman throwing herself at me? As long as it is for free, I would take it.”
Tina: “Bette! You are so cheap … Hmm, well at least you think I’m beautiful.”
Bette: “You have some good traits, few and far between.”
I am kidding, you are perfect Tina.
Tina: “Ha! Porter…I can count all your good traits on my one hand.”
You may not be perfect but you are perfect for me.
Bette: “Haven’t learned to count beyond 5? I guess that’s why it’s called elementary education.” She actually dared to snicker!
Tina: “That’s it, I am hanging up now!”
Bette: “Nooooo…wait wait…”
Tina: “Make it fast Porter. I can only count to 5.”
The infamous eye-roll.
Bette: “You drive me crazy too T. I want you so much. I can hardly wait.”
Her mouth went dry and she swallowed hard.
Before Tina could respond, Bette had hung up.
She groaned. It was going to be another long and sleepless night.
“Fuck you Bette!”
TBC …

Arrrrgh!!! When are they dumping the spouses?! I want TiBette together, now, so that they can take on whatever drama is thrown their way. Please, no more waiting!!!!!
This was so great I’m almost speechless, Maverick ! The witty banter between those two was absolutely delightful. I love the fact that no matter how desperate they are, they’re still capable of being silly and of having lighthearted conversations. I guess they just HAVE TO be together. Oh, and by the way, I completely agree with Kword, I watched the movie KANK too a few weeks ago and even though I enjoyed it I’m loving your story much much more. This is a very brilliant, not to mention very very smart “adaptation”, Maverick ! Kudos to you for a fabulous fanfic ! And of course thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us.
OMg this teasing and and bantering is incredible!! :)PPS
Hey great chapter loved the banter but y so short:( I agree the film did have a lot of crying towards the end and I do prefer ur version of the story:)) its much more fun and definitely much more profound. PPVS
I cannot *believe* you left it there. I’m just… gah! We need more! I’m not going to throw a single stone, Maverick. Nope, not a pebble. Rather, I’m gonna do a Wile E. Coyote and pry loose one of those special boulders that can only be moved with a single wooden plank. Yeah, you know the kind. *meep meep* I’m kidding… Just like, post the next part soon, please. (Notice that looming, rapidly enlarging shadow, accompanied by a weird whistling sound? Yeap. That’s the crushing, boulder-like weight of my impatience for your next chapter, Wile E. I mean Mav.) Post soon! (And thanks!)
The banter between these two is kind of funny but they do need to see each other and get busy planning to get divorces so they can be together. Will Bette ever find out that Helena tried to have her killed and ruined her career? No Mav, didn’t get the chance to go to law school, life intervened. But love the law, and it is a fickle mistress. Hope our girls can get their thing together and move in together. PPS
Oh Mav – another brilliant installment of sharp banter and jest. This just leaves me wanting more, as always. These two play off each other so well. Thanks for making my day!
When will Bette and Tina find out that it was Helena who was behind trying to have Bette killed and ruining her career???? I know….I should just be patient! PPS
Oh, Mav what a killer ending! I’m still laughing and smiling. Bette so set Tina up for a sleepless night of wondering about their first time together. I hope it’s SOON, by the way! Very SOON! PPVS
UGH….how can you leave us like that? I sure hope Alice and Eric are gone soon but I’m sure you won’t make it that easy on our girls.
Another well-written chapter as usual. P.S., I took the LSATs twice for the same reason …perfectionist. Worked for me.
Oh Mav you are fabulous. I would never smack you by myself, but if you keep this teasing up well I think you noticed some of the comments so I need not say more. You are such a great storyteller and whether it is adapted or not you really catch the essence of these two characters. Love the teasing and when I read your chaps I relly see it playing out as if watching the actual show. Love the tidbit t the end when Bette actually admitted stuff. That happened to me recently, play dumb play dumb then admit it at the end. Why we do these things!! ha ha
Hahha they are so cute and sweet, love they playing!
Thanks for another great chap’, Maverick! It’s fabulous to see that even though they have confessed their true feelings to each other, that hasn’t changed in any way their amazing chemistry and witty banter! And throwing in here and there some loving and sultry words makes it even more brilliant!… It was funny, cause I had to go to the small indian shop around the corner to get KANK, and all I had as a title was just that: “KANK”! So I started telling the story to the guy so that he would find me the movie, and I had to be careful not to say Bette instead of Dev’ (by the way, Bette… Bev’… Dev’…) and Tina instead of Maya!… So funny! But again, movie funny (especially the dance of luuuuv’) but fic sooooo much better! PPS, K ;)
