    Author Notes:

    What’s your answer Bette?

    Previously

    Kit glances up at her sister. Her jaw is set
    and outwardly she shows no real emotion. But looking at her eyes, Kit could see
    pain and disappointment.

    Kit: Bettehave
    you talked to Tina about this baby?

    BetteNo.
    (pauses) She doesnt know that I know. I dont want to bring it upI dont want
    her getting upset.

    Kit: But Bette.

    Bette:
    (interrupts) Kit, no. I wont cause her any more undo stress. Shes been
    through enoughbecause of me. I wouldnt want to be the cause of something
    happening to her baby.

    Kit: You dont
    think

    Bette: I wont
    risk it. If Tina wanted me to know about it, then she would have told me weeks
    ago.

    Kit: She was
    very upset a few weeks ago. Shes had time to process things…you both have.
    Maybe she needed time

    Bette: Time to
    what? Move on? Isnt that what shes already one with     Helena?

    Kit: You dont
    know how serious that all is. You certainly cant take     Helenas claims at face value. You said it
    yourself, she doesnt like you. Maybe shes building up her relationship more
    than it really is just to make you angry and jealous.

    Bette: Well
    shes doing a good job.

    Kit: Can I ask
    you a question?

    Bette: You know
    you can.

    Kit: Bette I
    want an honest answer. Completely honest.

    Bette: (wary)
    Ok.

    Kit: Are you
    still in love with Tina?

    Chapter 5

     

    Bette looks down at
    her food, contemplating Kits question. Am
    I still in love with Tina? After everything thats happenedthe lawyersthe     Peabody
    Grant    Helena? She closes her eyes for a moment, and then
    looks directly at Kit.

     

    Bette: (quietly)
    Yes. Yes I am. (pauses) I never stopped loving her.

     

    Kit: Well then I
    think you should talk to her.

     

    Bette: Kit, how can
    I? She doesnt want anything to do with my anymore.

     

    Kit: You wont know
    unless you ask her. Im not saying that you should just show up at her
    apartment. (pauses) Maybe try calling her or sending her a note.

     

    Bette: A note?

     

    Kit: You
    knowsomething simple. Ask her how shes doingtell her what youve been doing.

     

    Bette: Maybe.

     

    Both are quiet for a
    few minutes while they finish eating dinner.

     

    Bette: Actually
    there is something that I wanted to talk to you about. (pauses) Ive decided
    that Im going to move back home.

     

    Kit: Youyou are? I
    mean, are you sure? The last time

    2. Revisiting the scene of The Scene: do you think TLW will ever address what went on that night?
      I wonder about Bette’s decision to come home before the show is up. Kit had some wise advice. Maybe Bette should have waited until the stress of doing the show was over. Does Bette ever listen?
      And now? The couch? What is the point of going home if she isn’t readyb to face the pain in full and proceed forward? Sleeping on the couch is no panacea and surely a good night’s rest in a bed is imperative for dealing with all that she must face, work, divorce, health issues.
      This is a transitional chapter? Thanks for posting. And lay off the Skittles, girl!

    3. poor Bette. I’m glad she decided to move back home, even if it meant going ot an empty house. I hope she stays away from the alcohol like she told Kit. last thing she needs is a problem like that.
      The bedroom scene – really touching. I guess she’s not sleeping in that bed.
      so………….what about the business card. What kind of doctor is she? i NEED to know. You’re killing me. POST SOON!

    4. i´m still very sad..but i can see why she is going to sleep on the couth..she feels like she dosent deserve sleep on the bed without Tina is too much pain to much memories to much remorse..and she just made her second mistake what was not talk to Kit she is sick i wanna see B&T together but not just because Bette is sick but just cuz Tina loves her and want be part of her life again…ok i love your story please post soon and thanks :o)

    5. I hope by her being home she wont be driven to the bottle…..And sleeping on the couch is only going to go so far….She needs Tina and only then will she be able to sleep in that bed again…..Post soon!

    6. i am glad you wrote bette viewpoint on the scene. the scene should have been discuss in season 2. i know you will do a wonderful job writing it in your story. tibette, right now your story is a joy to read even if it only 1 page long.this was such a sad chapter,bette is so sad,right now she feel she is the blame for failure of her marriage[ WITH THE AFFAIR] but it take 2 people to do that.tibette is this story told from bette view? will we hear tina side?

    7. nice touch on the bedroom scene, I liked the way you explained it, another thing we will not see in the show, really happy when we have fan fic writers like you who are willing to talk about it. STILL waiting on what’s wrong with bette, and how she is going to handel it. I hope we get a update soon.

    9. Man that was sad I could feel Bette’s pain and sadness. I hope she reaches out to Tina she needs to pull her self to gether and fight for what she wants. Great chapter enjoyed it very much and looking forward to more soon.
