What Bette really wanted to say, as she watched Tina
blow into the already wet tissue, was, “Tina, someday you’re going to
realize that I’m right here and I’m fucking in love with you and that
I’m perfect for you. You don’t need to wait for someone incredible. I’m
already here.”
She swallowed again and put a comforting hand on
Tina’s arm. “It’s gonna be okay, T. Trust me,” was all she said.
________
Bette didn’t know when exactly it was that she
started seeing Tina as something more than just another friend. In
fact, when she really thought about it, she couldn’t help feeling a
little disgusted with herself. She laughed at her gay girl friends who
fell for straight women. She has always said,
“If some guy were to tell me that he can turn me
straight, I’d tell him to go to hell. So who am I to tell a straight
girl that I can turn her gay?!”
This line of argument invariably shut up lovelorn
dykes and die-hard romantics alike. That was Bette Porter, stubbornly
logical to very bitter end.
“Women are like hair,” Bette’s friend and
hairdresser Shane chided her one Sunday afternoon at the salon.
“They’re only straight until they aren’t. Like that lady over there,”
she pointed discreetly to a brunette being shampooed.
“She used to be straight now she’s gay?” Bette
questioned skeptically. “And how long will that last? Until she gets
tired of her experimentation and goes back to heteroland? Face it
Shane, most women would not give up their society-given rights to
trample on others’ lifestyles unless it’s some college dip into the
strictly unconventional.”
“Yee-ow Bette. That’s harsh. You’ve got some raging
heterophobia going on there.” Shane pretended to burn her fingers on
Bette’s curly locks. “And I was just going to say, that woman got a
perm.”
Bette rolled her eyes and clucked her tongue. “The
problem with you Shane is that you hit on everything on two legs.”
“Nu-uh. That’s where you’re confusing me with Alice. I’m strictly a female everything-with-two-legs chaser.”
“Right, right. Even the ones who are so straight they can pass for a ruler, right?”
“Bette, Bette, Bette. When will you learn to differentiate human beings from drafting instruments, huh?”
“All I’m saying is, maybe it’s okay with you to be a
little detour on some straight woman’s path to traditional
wife-and-motherhood. I, on the other hand, am a highway leading
directly to all-gay heaven. That’s the exit right after Christian
Fundamentalist hell.”

Poor Bette, can’t believe she’s never told or hinted to Tina about her feelings before. Anyway, thanks for the story — really am enjoying it. Please continue.
Good chapter. This is interesting and I agree with Marti and let see what’s next, thanks!
I’ve been in Bette’s place so longer I can’t even remember how long its been anymore. Sucks. But this is FF and they can and will come together, right?
Been there too. I hate it when they say “If I were gay, you would be my girlfriend.
I’ve been there too! Only, without the sniffing. :D
And ya know what’s worse than crushing on the straight girl? The straight girl that flirts with you, sniffs you, practically goes weak in the knees when you speak French and openly discuss having children and the entire adoption proces in conversations with you and then goes back to their male ex. Yes 7pm I have been there and it ain’t no fun. Nice story.
