Of Me…
Bette was sitting on the couch, holding Angelica, holding her snugly, looking at her eyes and her face. She was stroking her head and her little face, and as Angelica revelled in Bette’s attention and touch, Bette’s tears flowed down her face.
BETTE- “I love you. I will always love you. Nothing will ever change that. Little one you’ve changed my life. I’m so sorry I messed things upI messed them up before you were born, but now everything I did to fix it doesn’t seem to make a difference. I will remember you always. Please God let her remember me. Please” (The front door is being unlocked and the unwanted visitor, though loved, is at this moment harkening a dark fate. She isn’t welcome, for no other reason than solely because of the task before her.)
BETTE- (She turns abruptly and speaks intensely) “I’m her mother KitI was her mother too. How is it right? The ‘right thing’? Is this the right thing? She is going to take her away from me. She is going to take Angelica out of my life. I won’t get to see her or hold her or be there for her or help raise her”
BETTE- “As what Kit? As an old friend she once knew really well? As a woman she once loved and whom now will only let her say hello on occasion to her daughter? As the woman who shared her bed once and the dream to have a child together? As the woman who partook of this child’s coming into being but who is now and forever will be an acquaintance on the periphery of this child’s life?”

Heart breaking
HEART WRENCHING
I am sitting here at work trying not to cry! Damn that was heartbreaking! your writing is so detailed and drenched with such heartfelt emotions. I hope happiness for Bette, in whatever way you percieve it to be. Now I have to go read a happy story…lol
i did read at work and cried and had to lie that i had something in my eye, somethign really big, since the tears were just streaming down non-stop…my heart is breaking…so this story has nothing to do with Valediction, right? just another spoiler-influenced story? i need some happines, i hope you’re taking us there
Simply heartbreaking. The tears have been flowing.
I ADORE your stories… they look and sound very real to me, i can see the actors saying these words and doing what you write. god dammit, what i personally see on the show right now, between bette and tina is so… shattered, it’s not convincing even though the actors are at their best, but the writers just make everything look horrible for me… i just wish they could have people like you to write for them and actually open their eyes to what tragic, dramatic storylines should look like… oh, and i’m so glad kit’s one of the main characters in your stories, same goes to alice and shane who both come off as friends and not strangers.. it’s nice to see joyce not as one-dimensional as she was in S2… in other words, you rock :D i’ll just go to wipe my tears now.
I love it! I really love it! I can even see how Pam says these words to JB and how frustrated Tina is. Great job! Please continue.
you can`t imagine all the pain that you show us in this chapter, was a heartbreaking, it`s difficult don`t cry with this kind of post.great job but i really really hope some hapinnes for Bette
Your well written words paint a gut wrenchingly sad and realistic story. Thanks for writing.
Just when I’d put the kleenex away. I’m ready, take me on another thrilling emotional roller-coaster ride.
It’s sad but I really like the intensity. You’re a really good writer. You should conitinue. Good Job.
So sad. I’m ready to just cry my eyes out. Please continue!
fuck…that was so just..OMG..I’m crying, my heart aches…but I hope you continue with this one…it was wonderful
T- that was absolutely gut-wrenching. You have an amazing way with your stories… BEAUTIFUL…
Like everyone else, I found this chapter heartbreaking. You did a wonderful job expessing Bette sadness. But, while you may not be able to visualize a Tina that would take Angelica away from Bette, I find that the Season 3 Tina could do exactly that.
Sad, emotions I can’t describe.heart breating. A broken woman in a big lonely city. Time doesn’t heal all wounds,it just deaden it a little. Maybe not Tina,but her boyfriend would not want Bette around or near any of Tina or Bettes friends. So maybe Bette did the best things Thanks yes. like all the rest I cryed.
TLW needs to sign you up to their writing staff! Your writing is amazing to be able to illicit all this emotion! I really liked the way you made us feel the agony both Bette and Tina are going thru. Oh, please continue quickly!
Great read. Hope there will more soon. As I was reading it I was wondering what Alice, Shane, etc. take on the Tina/Man thing was. I havn’t seen that aspect explored much.
Your talent is amazing. The depth of emotion in this story is boundless. Your writng is truly your gift to us. Tina is not a likable person and I understand her grief but Bette would never hurt Angelica. Bette is so alone. Even on TLW, Bette is never offered redemption. Tina comes across as a vengeful and mean spirited person.
Very intense and moving. I love it. I’m eager to see where this story will go. Please continue!!! :)
sad just so sad
damn your killing me!!!!!!!!!!!! please continue with the other story
Damn that was beyond painful. Okay I admit it I cried too. I’m just glad I wasn’t at work. :O I really liked the cab driver. He could tell Bette was pretty much running from something.
damn. shit. fuck. TMerlin you are going to have to stop making me cry dude…
Congulations on your success with the story, the story was amazing, I did cry and did it while I was at work. It’s sad because this is our true reality. These are some of the things that happen in a lesbian relationship that contains the elements of a baby. Regardless of how much bette wanted that baby to be hers it was in fact tina’s. By law tina has the right of way. Which if the couple were to break up the birth mother would always be the first condsideration unless proven unfit. You did an excellant job bacause not only did you bring out the reality of the characters, but you brought the reality of being in a long term lesbian relationship. This is something any one could go through, throughout time at some point in life. Well spoken, well written and well explain. I applaud for your courage to expose the reality and truth of the world and its prejudice towards gay women and how it can leave you feeling lifeless and emotionless in the end. Great story keep up the good work. Can’t wait for your next work of art.
absolutely heart breaking, you capture everyone’s emotions really well. thanks for the long update keep them coming i like them long.
T, truly an accomplished author you are to evoke such emothins and reactions from your readers! I am compelled to read the next chapter, but had to comment…just awesome!!!
How sad!!!!!!!!!!
This is so sad!
heart-breaking… like watching S2 & S3. The words you write make you feel Bette’s pain. Please continue!
That was the lonliest story ive ever read…I honestly think my heart broke a little more with each word,Brilliantly written as always and tho im not sure how much my poor heart can take id love you to continue….
amazing…absolutely amazing,cuts right thru the heart…please do continue.
You have an amazing ability to use words to convey powerlessness, emptiness, true loss, unconditional love, and hope. This was so heartwrenching that my only solace was to mourn along with Bette, Shane, and Kit. A large part of Bette died when Kit took Angelica from her embrace and in that moment I couldn’t hold back my tears any longer. I thank you wholeheartedly for this beautiful story filled with so much emotion that it illuminates hope. Please continue.
It’ so real written, it makes me soooo sad, i need a break from work and go for walk as i cannot get the image of Bette out of my head. Please continue and post soon.
