The Long and Winding Road – chapter two
Bette Porter could barely believe that she was standing here ready to talk and the life that was Dana Fairbanks. She had known that Dana was ill – keeping in touch with her via email and phone calls. When Kit had told her that Dana was ill she had not hesitated to break her self imposed exile and contact one of the old gang again.
They had talked late at night LA time because Bette now lived in London and the time difference made it inevitable that conversations happened at odd times.
Dana and Kit were the only two who knew the new life that Bette had build in the 2 years that she had been away from LA. When Dana died Bette knew that she owed it to her memory to return to the States for the funeral and comply with Dana’s wish that she deliver her tribute to the tennis player.
But Bette had not told either of them her biggest life changing experience – the child that she carried and who was kicking and doing more complex acrobatic exercises every day. The child that she had loved from its conception onwards – the child she would devote her whole life to loving and caring for
She knew that she could probably say what she wanted because everyone would be looking at her belly and coming to terms with the fact that she was pregnant.
With the eyes of the whole room on her and her bump she felt him kick and automatically she touched her stomach to saviour the sensation of his movements.
She would never tired of feeling him move and bounce inside of her. It was just as well that she did enjoy the sensation because Porter Jnr was one energetic baby.
She had deliberately not worn her contact lens so she could not make out individuals among the crowd – there would be time later for reunions – including the one that made her stomach somersault regardless of her son’s activities.
Bette Porter went to sleep every night thinking about her ex wife – the woman she knew that she could never get over – how can you "get over " your soul mate ?

Don’t ya know we love all of your stories. We love any stories that have the potential for something positive from B&T. Sadly they’re turning into a rare commodity. Keep hope alive.
tks, and how can you not know that anything you have to write would be so popular…don’t you read your own stories??? They are fantastic…see we want them both now….tks!!!!
wow… marvelous! Hope you continue soon… LMAO @ your own comment.. :p
I swear your story is the first one I’ve read on this board that brought tears to my eyes… you’re awesome. I love the L Wing.. but I’ve got a feeling that this story will be even better. You should definately write a novel Ally.
I like it and can see why it is so popular. Please continue at your leasure as we are also starving for some more of the L Wing, but PLEASE, PLEASE NO Helena and Bette. S2 was bad enough without flipping the script with Tina’s and Bette’s roles eek.
oh man… your killing me… first it was way to short… and yes we want both stories… but i can’t wait to see what tina says to her… all i hope is that hendick didn’t make it… but i know you will have IT walk in just as bette looks at tina or they say something to each other… dam girl… please continue soon
Honestly I didn’t think it was too short. But that’s because I have to get ready to go to an appointment soon and wanted to finish it before I left. lol Ugh Helena BACK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved what Bette said about Dana cracking terrible jokes. lmao
Okay, you commented on your own story, I love it. I hope Alice gets through this. I’m loving Bette getting her life together, but not being over her true love…Cheers!!!
Loving the story. But i agree with cpq, please no Helena & Bette.
It may not have been long, but plenty of stuff happened or is about to happen. Don’t apologize. But we, like Alice, better hear a lot more about Porter’s fetus very soon. Good thing Helena doesn’t have to explain to the boss, I’d stick around a bit to see what happens, too.
You have to post really soon again. This is one great story. Please post soon
ally, you rock and you know that.. now i have to look forward to two stories of yours – awesome!
Bette will have a love for as long as she lives. Her on baby boy. Boys are closer to Mom than girls. So glad that she and Dana got so close during Dana illness. thanks
Way too short but still freaking awesome. I can’t wait for the next chapter. You rock!!!
too short! Ally, I will read anything you write, hands down!Please post soon! I am intrigued.
Awesome! I love L Wing but i wouldnt mind waiting a bit more on that story so u can update this one like 2morrow :P
yea is a little short but really good. i can’t wait for Tina’s reaction. what they can said to each other. continue please and with the L wing
‘not expecting it to be so popular’? have you read your work? Girl, we want more from BOTH this and the L Wing!
…I’m sitting here, wondering how, how can someone have such an impact on me, in a language which is not even my own. How is it that I sit here and cry and feel devastated. I’m sitting here with a knot in my stomach, greater than that one I had when I saw the show weeks ago. Thank you Ally, you’re one hell of a woman, you touched my soul.
What are you talking about! All your stories are popular, but what do you want, you’re an amazing writer! So I expect more from you!
Whoa, Bette has so many choices now: be a single mom, hook up with Helena, find another hot Brit in London,… go back to Tina… Well, I don’t know if it’s my first choice now…
I am usually too shy to write but had to tell you how wonderful this story is–as is the LWing! You are a terrific storyteller and I have enjoyed everything you have so generously written for this site–thank you, thank you, thank you! Lin
too short but still great, the poem was so beautiful and so appropriate…i think it’s time for tina to say goodbye to henry, unless she’s blind and has no feelings left and do it before helena has her hands on bette (i hope it’s not going to be another Bette and Helena story)
The start of another fantastic Ally creation. 2 fab stories to look forward to now.
Ally-so another great story in the making, huh? I love it!
I thought to short but damn good please don’t keep us waiting to long…
See I told you even though I am biased you are one hell of a writer. You do read your comments don’t you? This is a great new story and who cares what happened in season three–go with your imagination, which is wonderful.
I dont think you have it in you too write a bad chapter, whatever it is about. But please please ont forget my favourite The L wing Please
ally..you can do whatever you want with S3…you can do it better. We know our tibette hearts are safe with you. post any story…very soon.
Lovin it, lovin it, lovin it!! Wonder if I could look after Bette until Tina regains her sanity! Beautiful poem too, by the way! Thanks Ally!
I will read anything you write. You are an amazing writer. This story brought tears to my eyes, the emotions are so strong and clearly expressed. I would love some more L wing and am desperately trying not to pester you so don’t push me too far! Keep on writing and I hope life is treating you well.
Ah yes brilliant, but to short, more please
Ya right, WAY TOOOO SHORT, Ally!!! No should be calling you Cliffy!!!! More please and don’t forget The L wing either. cheers
hey i so totaly loved ya story its really really good..when do we get to have another epi of l wing
it is too short – and it is certainly poular! more please – “and so say all of us”
i can’t decide which one i like better, L Wing or this new story. both have fantastic story lines. i agree you need to multitask, both stories per day please ^__^
How many times do we have to boost your ego. You know your good, you know your stories are good, hell great, we’ve told you so. OMG, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You have such a way of getting us to feel so many emotions at one time, that as much as I enjoy reading your stories, sometimes I’m worn out by the end of the chapter. This was beautiful, and we so can wait for that first glimpse between Bette and Tina.
I am so with you about season 3 and it looks like season 4. I hate what those jerks did with this wonderful couple because they wanted reality. Well, the reality is what is going to kill their show. I guess I will just have to continue to read Fan Fiction until you guys stop writing about a happier Bette and Tina. This is sad that Bette is so afraid of seeing Tina. Maybe now Tina will get over the Henry dude and get herself together. I love reading about a pregnant Bette. Is this child going to be like a mini-Tina. That would be interesting. Love Wimbeldon.
Very touching eulogy by Bette and the poem chosen was very appropriate. The eulogy was light and most important of all celebrated who Dana was. Ally, I’m hooked on this story as well as your other one.
my dear now you have us hooked on two stories – this was awesome – the thought of a beautifully pregnant Bette is so inticing. You have created a hunger for both stories and hope that the pressure of our longing for your updates on Lwing and this gem aren’t too much for you. LOVE YOUR WRITING!!
Wow very touching and amazing. Yep Bette is beautiful and everyone want to be with her, Tina is stupid to let Bette go, don’t know if she have a chance to talk or be with Bette again if Bette let her. OK post soon please, thanks!
please don’t make this a helena – bette story. You write bette an tina so well, and definately keep the faith alive.
This is good really good it’s awesome. Both still feeling so much pain and needing each other. And Tina must be so on the “edge” of a break-down. I mean Bette is pregnant and that is something she wanted and never “could”
Amazing, can’t wait for the next post. Thanks.
I really like this story…and I hope you’ll continue with this story as well as the L-Wing of course…I am having L-Wing withdrawals…I’ve been reading previous chapters…please update both stories soon….and hopefully this story has bette and tina together soon.
Oooh, too short! But wonderful update, Ally. Your writing rocks! ^_^ Can’t we please have both your stories at once.
Are you kidding? Ally, you have opened the box and your story is out. It just wonderful. Don’t get me wrong, I love L Wing. But, this story has the potential to be your best yet. And that my friend is fact.
your right, its too damn short, too many cliffhangers, too much teasing, and now we have to beg for both stories, damn i luv your work!!!!!!!!!
Love the new story, definitely another chapter soon, please. Hope you get B&T together soon.
ARRGGGHHHH it was way to short!!! but it’s fine we’re let you off if u keep writing thiis and the L Wing yay 2 stories by Ally WOOOHOOOO!!!!!
AHHH! Ya CAN’T LEAVE IT THERE!!! So wait, she just up and left after provocations right? And Tina hasn’t slept with anyone else, right? So WHY can’t they get together? Please post again soon, I love The L Wing, but I love all your stories, so you need to multitask! hahahah
yeah — i know its too short !!!!! i was not expecting it to be so popular
