Choose Me—Chapter 3
Bette’s POV
The pounding in my head is all the reminder I need that I shouldn’t ever drink again. Not to mention I have to start training soon for the new EuroLeague season and I will fly to Russia in a month. I am such an idiot for slamming those damn shots back to back like I did but I wanted to numb my heartache and now I’m paying for it. I rub my face with my left hand and open an my left eye and try to focus. I see that I’m in my room. I guess Laura got me home because I don’t remember anything after that 5th shot.
I finally get the other eye open and blink a few times to clear the blurriness. Sad to say I’m no longer numb. My heart is aching again but it won’t do me any good to succumb to it. I will have to move on. I can’t stay here while I’m still in love with her and watch her share her life with someone else. I need to get over her somehow. Maybe moving to Russia full time wouldn’t be a bad thing. I do like it there and maybe my feelings will subside in time if I make a complete break from her. I really don’t know of any other way
I finally sit up and swing my feet on the side of the bed. I shift my gaze to my nightstand and see my purse and grab it and pull out my phone. I see I had numerous calls and messages from Tina. I shake my head. I can’t deal with her right now. I also see Laura has called me this morning. I don’t know why she didn’t just stay here last night. She usually does when it’s late and we have been out together…..Weird. I shrug as I call her back to let her know I’m alive.
She picks up on the first ring. Damn..Was she just sitting there staring at the phone waiting.
“Bette!..You’re alive!”
“Barely…But yeah. I am…..except for this pounding headache”
“Well I’ve been worried about you since you left the bar last night” she says like she wasn’t with me all night
I furrow my brows “What do you mean when I left?…You were with me weren’t you?”

Thanks for the chapter!
But Bette, moving in Russia – one of the most homophobic countries in the world – it’s probably not your best idea

I also thought that Russia was a very interesting choice. I guess it would be a great place to hide your feelings for the same sex.

Honestly Bette is just thinking out loud about Russia. She wants to forget her feelings for Tina at this moment. She will have a conversation with Laura about that in the next chapter. So she isn’t serious…

Nathan is a darling. And yes T. It is going to be the greatest love story of all time.
