    Author Notes:

    What is Bette so worried about?

     

                “There’s more”

     

                After eight years, more was an understatement, but the big one that Tina knew would upset her mother was her career change.  Tina remembered how proud her family was of her job in Hollywood.  No matter how many times she told them that she didn’t really work in Hollywood and that Alphaville was hardly Paramount, they remained convinced that she was some sort of movie big shot. 

                However, her mother took her career change surprisingly well.  It was the part where she quit her job to have a baby over two years ago that upset her.  She now knew just how long a road Tina had to travel to have a baby and just how long she had needed her mother more than anyone else. 

                “Tina, how could you not call me in two years if you needed me so much?” Rose asked, plaintively.

                “I thought about it every day, mom.  I did, but how could I?”  Besides Bette, the only person she wanted was her mother.  “At that point, I couldn’t take rejection from you too.”

                “Me too?” her mother asked, confused.

                Oops.  Tina thought fast, telling her mother about leaving Bette was not a good idea, at least for now.  Bette and her mother seemed to be getting along.  Tina saw no reason to spoil that.  Christ, where was Alice when you needed her?  That’s it!  Alice!  “My friends were kind of upset with my nesting.”  God, that was lame, and therefore worthy of Alice.

                “Nesting?”

                “They told Bette and me that we were boring,” Tina explained and she told her mother about Alice, Dana, Shane, and their ill-conceived intervention.  It may not have explained Tina’s use of the word rejection but it definitely worked.  Her mother was laughing harder than Tina had ever made her laugh.

                Her mother’s only comment was, “I always found the Playtex support maternity panties to be the best but that was years ago.”

                “See, these were the things I needed to know.  And I had to ask those monkeys for advice,” Tina lamented jovially.

                “So your friends rejected you?” Tina’s mother asked, just when she thought she had forgotten.

    1. Bette needs to have a litte bit more faith in Tina and Tina’s feelings for her. All these insecurities that Bette has is going to lead to something bad.

    2. they need to talçk and quickly before Bettes little mind start to wondering bad things and worse before she do something wrong but i hope they are still in the right path and get through the hard time..great chapter and please dont take so long to post again thanks

    3. I agree with Emma. What’s killing Bette is not knowing…Tina should just talk to Bette and finally tell her why she came home. They’re both contributing to a possible downward spiral. Bette wants to know, needs to know, and the only person with the answer, Tina, is delaying her response. That can be a bit frustrating and can feel your insecurities. They need to stop and TALK to one another. Jenny…thanks for the update.

    7. Poor Bette isn’t even reassured after:
      ‘Tina said, affectionately. “Home is you and the longer I was away the more I knew it was true.”
      What more does she need to hear from T?

    11. Great update jenny, I am soooo happy with Rose’s reacrion to the news of her grand daughter. I aree with everyone else that B&T need to talk and very soon. I hope that Carrie can handle herself with Helena. Please continue, we love and have missed your story.

    13. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
      This is so how I want to be S3 of TLW!
      ANd yes, pls, they need to talk, seriuosly, but pls, don´t make them fight, my heart went thru so much lst season, I donpt know if I can take more of B&T fights.
      Again, if I don´t like the real S3 of TLW, I´ll reread this history until it seems real.
      PLs, post soon.
