    Author Notes:

    So Tina, will you go with me to the opening tomorrow night?

    “I’m sorry Alice.” Lowering her eyes, Bette stared at her hand, which was gently holding the blonde’s on top of the table that separated them. “I love you. I want you in my life…but, I….”

    “I know Bette,” Alice interrupted her, trying to reassure the gorgeous brunette sitting in front of her. “It’s okay. Were better off as friends…good friends.”

    “Yes…” Bette breathed out the word, her shoulders sagging with relief. She truly had grown to love this crazy, witty, sneaky smart woman, whose heart she thought she was going to break with her admission.

    “I was just so taken with your endless curiosity, and that sharp wit, which leaves me breathless from laughing…but then mixed in there is an incredibly sweet and diffident smile, that just pulls on my heart strings every time…well…”

    “Geez Bette! If this is what you say to a woman you are breaking up with, I can only imagine that you will have the one you’re in love with melting into a big puddle at your feet!!”

    The thought of Tina melting because of something she said, made Bette smile and feel all warm and gooey inside too. But still, she wanted Alice to know that she really did care about her, even if she didn’t feel right continuing having an intimate relationship with her.

    “I just want you to know how much your friendship means to me Alice…how grateful I am that Meg introduced us. And…” She hesitated, wanting to word her thought just right. “And, I wanted you to know that I really did want to be with you…be intimate with you. It wasn’t just a short-term fling for me. I just…well, I know now that….”

    Turning her hand over, Alice squeezed Bette’s to once again reassure her. “I know…Im not her.”

    “Her?” Bette questioned in surprise.

    “Yeah…her….the one you dream about…the one you are waiting for….her.”

    “But…how…” Bette stuttered, her surprise evident on her face.

    “Because Bette. A woman can tell when the one she is with is holding back a little. And, looking into your eyes is a dead giveaway as to what is going on in your heart. Besides…..” She smiled mischievously. “You talk in your sleep!”

    “What?!” Bette asked, shocked by Alice’s statement. “I do not talk in my sleep,” she answered indignantly.

    2. Sea…You haven’t lost your touch. It’s always a pleasure to see that you’ve posted a new chapter. I relish reading your stories. And since you’re a TiBetter, all the better. Full-time jobs suck the big one but until I meet a Helena, it’s off to work I go as well. Glad to hear that you’re enjoying your new job or at the company of your co-workers. Please post as soon as you’re able.

    6. Awesome as always, you are my favorite writer of the romance of B&T- I hope your event in SF is wonderful, I’m too shy to come but admire you and many of the writers and wish you all a very good time.

    7. Ms. Seahurst, I’ll have you know that I did NOT need all this time to go back and read the earlier chapters I’d missed. It didn’t take nearly that long at all. Not that I didn’t enjoy the other stuff in the mean time, but come on, throw us a bone every now and again. I hope to see you in SF. Just because I’m not easily star struck (I once passed Greta Garbo on the street without losing my cool) doesn’t mean I don’t admire your work. Actually I’m really looking forward to meeting 3 dimensional people existing beyond the confines of this non-dimensional world.

    9. OMG! Am I hallucinating!? LOL! A post from one of my favorite stories!!! Ok, my night has been made! Thank you thank you thank you!! I am happy to see you’ve added another post! Please continue. The time between posts is killing me slowly. LOL! But, I will wait for my next crumb no mattr how long it takes! I love your writing style! You’re one of my favorites! So, keep ’em, comin!I hope y’all enjoy yourselves in SF. I’m one of the shy ones. Doing the virtual thing is a lot easier than real life. Have enough fun for me!

    10. Just a note. I haven’t actually ready this story yet, but a few hours ago I was wondering if you were going to post anytime soon and this story popped into my head. lol I’ll have to go back and read it. =D

    12. Memo to Eric: You may want to walk away right about now. Excellent chapter Seahurst! I hope you post the next one soon. If not, I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait…probably not the case with S4.

    15. BTW, liking this version says a lot since I’m no longer a TiBette shipper. My erstwhile die-hard loyalty fell by the wayside once Tina showed her true vicious colors this season. So, maybe there’s hope for the appreciation of what this couple once symbolized for me to return through your story. :-)

    18. I wish I could be in SF to meet one of my favorite fanfiction writers, but I just had my vacation in the Carolinas. Hope you have a great turnout and thanks so much for this story.

    19. Great Chapter and I love how they see each other and know immediately that is who they belong with. These two should never be apart. I wonder why on the poll section that the question asked who Bette should be with in Season 4 why Tina’s name was not there. It should be and in my mind it will always be Bette and Tina. Hope that the job stays good for you, and just think of the money that you will make working those 40 hours a week.

    20. Sea, simply truly beautiful…thank you!! Have a great time in SF – maybe you can give a full report when you get back!!! I hope it is more than you are hoping for!

    22. I am so glad that you are back to writing and especially this story–just love it. I will be in SF and can’t wait to meet all the wonderful women from this site who will be there.

    24. Ah delicious. So glad you picked up the pen on this one again. Love the way you ended the chapter.The gathering sounds so fun, I wish I could be there. Will you write up a report for the rest of us?

    25. So have I told you how much I love this story? I really do. I just sat down and reread the whole thing. I do wish you would post the next chapter soon. It was great meeting you.

    26. Awwww how sweet was that, I truly love this story and I’m doing my happy dance :o)) The way you’ve made a connection between our girls before the meting we all know, is just brilliant thinking and amazing writing. Now they have found each other, they will never let go I hope :o))….and you have to post more often, you’re killing me!!!

    27. I will never catch up with all the stories after 11 days in SF. It was great to meet you and I love this story…I hope you get to write more of it soon.

    28. I have been re-reading all of your stories. They are just great. I haveenjoyed the immensely.I am looking forward to the next postfor this one. Thanks so much for thewonderful writing.

    34. Well I’m all caught up now and I must say I’ve really enjoyed this near-miss relationship between B&T. I hope you don’t wait too long to post again. I wish I could go to SF but my credit card is still in mourning over my trip to LA last month. I’ll be with everyone in spirit though!

    36. Woohoo, B&T finally meet face to face and love their reaction! “It’s you” indeed! How will Eric react to this reaction of theirs. Can he see the sparks flying? Does he sense the impending demise of his relationship with Tina standing ominously close by in the form of one Bette Porter? Or will he fight valiantly for his love to no avail? Staying tuned to Seahurst’s “Put it up to your ear…what do you hear?”, playing on your favourite fan fic site. Thanks for the update and have loads of fun in SF. Wish I could be there…

    37. I want to meet you all in San Fran…still working on it. I was so excited to see a new chapter and I am even more excited now that BnT are face to face. Hope to see what happens really soon!

    38. Just had a little time to catch up on some reading and I am so glad I chose this story to read! Seahurst, you’re one of a kind! Thank you for writing this amazing story! Can’t wait to find out whats next… LA Is a bit far for me LOL I so wish I could be there! Hope you all have a great time! Thanks!

    39. AWE…**smiles** Sea posts again with the true love story! Thank you! I hope you are enjoying all the rain again! I am glad job is going well even with those 40 hour work weeks:)! Love ya girl and miss talking to you.

    41. It’s almost as much fun to read the comments you get, after each new post. It’s great to see just how many hearts your writing touches. Another great chapter, as usual. But, like ‘seven’ I’ve kinda lost the passion I once had for B/T. But, your writing can take me back to the good times of this couple that just stole my heart from the very beginning. Hope a great time was had by all, in attendance at the SFO gathering.

    42. omg yessss they finally found each other after all these years, im a sucker for soulmates and as i always say these two are destined…damn you Seahurst for being sooo damn talented!!
