THE L WING CHP 68 – NARRATION OF PRESIDENT BETTE PORTER
Its almost 9:30 and Tina and I are lying together on the sofa in the Residence. She is half asleep against my good arm – the other arm I have been persuaded by Tina to put back in the sling to rest it. I admit when the pain killing injections started to wear off it hurt.
I am just gently holding her – unwilling to ever let her go . She is displaying enough of the traits of my favourite woman to reassure me that in time and given the right amount of support and loving she will finally be free of her trauma.
Bette ?
Hey there — I thought you were asleep.
Tired – can we go to bed and maybe lie and talk for a while.
Are you sure ?
Yeah – I have things that I want to tell you about what happened. I guess you have a lot of questions too.
I do but they can wait until you are stronger.
No – you have known about my nightmares a long time. You should hear it from me now – not my subconscious. I need to know what I told you when I was under hypnosis
Are you angry that I did that ? That I made the decision ?
No – that’s why you have power of attorney – and I wanted to thank you for being there for me throughout – it cannot have been easy for you to hear .
You have no idea how hard it was babe Рto hear how you shot my fianc̩.
No – it was not but it was preferable to seeing you suffer and having to cope with seeing you slipping away.
I never left you Bette – I
She shakes her head
I heard so much of what went on – but all that was going on in my head was the sound of bullets – louder and louder. I once interviewed a man who was conscious throughout a major operation. He could not alert anyone because he was physically under the power of the drugs he had been given to knock him out. That is what it felt like – that I could feel and experience what was going on around me but I could not physically reach out and touch anyone.

please post again soon.. great chapter..
Girl, there are too many secrets. Bette is so Alpha and responsible it’s hard for her to admit she needs professional help as well as Tina. Love this story and congrats on your anniversary.
I can hardly wait to see when & how Bete tells Tina abot Emily. They cannot fully heal without that information being imparted.
It won’t be easy, but like others have said, they need to discuss the Emily thing. If Bette ends up sick over this she won’t be of any good to Tina or her country.
Bette needs to tell Tina the truth or they won’t be able to move forward. Beautiful writing as usual.
Great as usual, ally.
i think bette needs to tell tina… she has to… this will not go away… it would only get worse… love this … please continue
no..not good until they level with each other about the secrets in their lives! I have never seen such a couple for NOT sharing huge chunks of their pasts, in the fics, as this one! they need to fess up,and deal with it, not just..”oh that’s in the past”. Tina did damage to Bette’s life and that needs to be addressed. Not that I’m telling you what to write or anything…Not me!
Bette needs to tell tina the truth asap. This will keep eating at her if she doesn’t. thanks
Madame President must to talk with her fiance about Afganista in order to move from this horrible experience. Congrats for your aniversary, you have been do it great if not look at this: 2 awards! pretty cool isn’t it?
Oh dear feel trouble ahead for my 2 FF characters, loved it as always
WOW – the complexity of the emotions for Bette is very very intense. And to think their problems as a couple are more about what they can bear then about the nuts that threaten them from without -so heavy – please let then get the help they both need. Your writing is awesome and scary with how well you illustrate their inner worlds.
damn tell her bette
aww shit poor bette. she’s gonna go insane if they don’t deal with that situation soon. beautiful writing as usual. please post soon. PEACE.
Bette needs to tell Tina the truth about Emily. This is going to make Bette ill and is not good for their relationship. It might hurt Tina, but they need to deal together. I love you story.
Looking forward to the Presidential vacation. BP needs a break….
As always great chapter…I’m really looking foward to how everything plays out….how bette will tell tina that she was emily’s fiance. This is such a great story PLEASE update soon!
Great story, you always capture my heart. Have a nice evening with the pilot, I’m gonna watch it also tonight.
Great update. Love the story. Bette must tell Tina who she really is and what Emily meant to her.
So glad you’re back, it felt like an eternity waiting for this great episode. You are a talented writer (just what the doctor ordered as I’ve just had my own heart broken by my beautiful blonde girlfriend). Great work, Ally, please post again soon.
This story, with its unique premise, is such a breath of fresh air! Yes, we have the B&T romance that we love, but we also have a separate drama that is equally compelling. Entertaining! Thanks!
Now Tina’s nightmare became Bette’s nightmare…
Life is never simple is it. I look forward to when the girls can have some time to themselves and properly process what happened and reconnect. I am interested to see how long it will take Bette to explain about Emily and am fascinated as to how Tina will react. Oh so much to look forward to. Keep on writing. Thanks again for this fantastic story. Oh and enjoy your ice-cream and the pilot. Sounds like a perfect evening.
Another amazing chapter, my friend. I not know why but I feel we are in for some additional drama from the new drama queen of this site. I really had a great time in SF meeting some of the great women from this site and I want to thank you babe for encouraging me to go. I missed you not being there and I can’t wait until next year when I come to visit you in England.
Bette really should explore some coping mechanisms with the shrink. 128 posts in 6 months? Geez, Ally can you keep this brutal pace up? We sure hope so.
Okay I think I’m starting to get worried for Bette. as strong as she thinks she is I don’t know if she’ll be able to handle all that is going on while keeping Tina in the dark. i know she wants to protect Tina but come on she is going to drive herself mad. she’s seeing emily when she touches/kisses Tina and she’s getting naseaus during senior staff….I think this incident is going to have the biggest and longest impact on Bette and her mental state. i just hope she allows Shane, Alice or someone to help her deal with all that has just happened. her mind must be on information overload. Happy that Tina is back, angry that Tina was sleeping w/ her fiance, relieved that she knows why Tina was having those awful nightmares. That’s a lot for ayone person to handle and on top of that she has to worry about running the country and getting re-elected. Whoa! I’m tired just thinking about. And congrats on the 6 month anniversary ally! I love this story and hope you post agin soon.
I feel bad for Bette. I agree with the others, she needs to tell Tina. Great chapter!
Bette is going to have to come clean about Emily. It is driving her to ill health. She now knows Tina’s secret, but for them to move on Bette will also have to come clean. Their trip to Virigina will be needed and that is when Bette needs to be upfront with Tina. Great chapter can’t wait for the next one.
they totally both need a break but neither of them will rest until the whole truth is out
Good chapter. Yep they need a break and have a talk before drama coming. Ok post soon please, thanks!
WOW!!! Just Great. Bette needs to tell tina about Emily ASAP.
I hope Bette tells her the truth soon..they need to face it and then put it behind them. Thanks for the post…I am buying some Ben & Jerry’s at the grocery story today..in your honor.
Happy 1/2 birthday!! It’s been a joy following your stories during this time. I wish you many other 6 months birthdays, selfish wish because I love your stories.
so poor tina doesn’t know that theres now another secret & nightmare. i hope they clear the air finally – soon. I guess she’ll realise B’s having nightmares
Great update, Ally! Thanks ^_^ Poor Bette … she really needs to tell the truth to Tina and asap!
Seems like president Porter is literally unable to keep this secret inside her. If she tries it will lead to gut wrenching pain? upheaval?… :) good job.
Happy six month b-day, please continue to write this magnificent story and I hope Bette gets over her feelings about Tina with her fiancee. She can’t afford to go mad and lose Tina again!
ya we gonna need sum hypnosis for bette to get the image of tina and emily outta her mind!! im waitin for this to unfold
Poor Bette, she definately needs some private counseling to deal with this, and she especially needs to talk to the doctor before confronting Tina with the knowledge that she and Emily were a couple when she was with Emily. Please “Make it so” Scotty :o)
You are indeed the drama queen and this story is so amzing, I just love it. But this is eating Bette up, she needs to get it out or she is going insane. I think she needs to talk to Tina and to a professional. Post soon….
