Vignettes: Chapter 29
When Tina finally emerged from the bedroom, she heard the faint sound of water running and she knew Bette was taking a shower. Other than that, silence filled the house. She spotted a note scribbled in haste. Alice, Dana and Shane went to a cafe for lunch and both she and Bette were welcome to join them. Tina looked at her watch and debated going or taking some time to herself, though she knew shed have to face her friends eventually. She just wasnt looking forward to a million questions, especially questions she didnt want to answer. Knowing she couldnt stay in the house for fear or running into Bette, she decided to head to see the girls.
Bettes words haunted her as she walked down the sunny street. Its never too late. What exactly did Bette mean by that? Was that her way of saying she wanted to seriously give them another shot, after all these years? Why now? Tina was happy with her life in Colorado. She loved her daughter and her friends and she had avoided love completely and almost deliberately. Raising a child on her own forced her to think of someone else other than herself. Never had she had someone depend on her for every little thing and she was forced to cater to all of Dakotas needs. Love never fit in the equation.
Tina pressed her eyes shut but she couldnt get Bettes whispers out of her head. But you always could…. anytime. Its never too late, Tina.
***
Alice casually walked down the hallway so that Shane and Dana didnt notice she was gone. Reaching her closed bedroom door, she bent down and cupped her hand over her ear, pressing it against the door, barely breathing. As much as she strained, she couldnt hear very much. At times, though, when Bette and Tinas voice rose, she could make out a few fragmented sentences and these were enough to keep her enthralled… until Shane and Dana snuck up behind her, hands on their hips.
Shane grabbed Alices arm and pulled her away while she glared at her. This isnt right. Shane whispered.

Love the pace you’re setting with this one (even though I secretly hope they get together every chapter I read lol).
great!! Gotta love Alice. Wonderful as always.
You tell ’em, Alice. Let them dissect you later. Now’s the time to smack some sense (metaphorically) into B&T.
Tina you should listen to Alice. Nice.
Consider this encouragement. Love your vignettes.
the cliff’s notes version gets them back together sooner, right? but the extended version means more chapters… :)
Talk about a stubborn pair. It’s there, Bette and Tina, just take off the freaking blinders! Good one.
I think there is more rain in the forecast for the next few days so that should mean lots of writing….hmmm sounds good to me. Looking forward to the next great chapter.
Great as always – it’s a little nerve racking will they or won’t they connect.? but I’m enjoying it very much.
I wonder what it will take or if it is possible to move to a tender place between Bette and Tina.
Ahh, will tina and bette just get together already!!!
I’ll take the extendednversion if that means I get more of your writing. Thanks
One of the best story on this site. Your writing is superb, and the fact that I have no idea where this story will lead to, makes it even better. I seriously, do not know if you will get my favorite couple (Bette and Tina) back together or not, but whether you will reunite them or not. This journey that you have taken me on, makes it okay if they are not back together (even though, I hope they do), because you have given me enough reasons, why they will never have that chance again….but you’ve also given me reasons (and bits of hope), that they could get that second chance.
Again, a beautiful story, a heart breaking story, and maybe soon…a story of mending hearts, realizing that fate was what brought them together, but their true love, in the end, will find their way back to one another…and keep them together..ALWAYS and FOREVER!
fareast, the fact that i too have no idea which was this plot of yours is going to go makes it even that much better….Another great chapter…Thank you, i seem to be repeating myself but i just can’t get enough of this story:)
more even!! lol
Another fantastic chapter, but it wasn’t loooooong enough, we need moe please.
Just loving this story. Alice is right. Tina you need to take a chance and please make it a good one. Post soon
Love this story so very very much! You’re writing is excellent and the pace you are setting is just perfect. Truly one of my favorite stories on this amazing website!
Sunny skies here in New England… I hope very much that the sun inspires you to write just as much as the rain. Thanks again for sharing this wonderful vision of a story.
5 Big Heart Shaped Cookies To You …. (still one of my favorite chapters) *smiles*
Hey fareast. I just wanted to tell you that I’ve seen a colossal improvement in your writing style. Everything is flowing so much more smoothly; you’re certainly more comfortable with your characters, leaving your reader in the middle of things. You entice, enrich, and entertain her with your descriptions and with how the characters play off each other so naturally. Wonderful work, fareast. It is a pleasure to see writers improve with every brush of the pen. And as always, the pacing is leaving us breathless! Do continue!
Yep, Alice hit the nail on the head, Tina you are stubborn, get over it.
Just love this story.
Thank you.
I love this story! I think your pacing is perfect, and I’m so happy that you’re posting so frequently these days :)
I love this story, and I love that you are keeping us posted steadily It is awesome
