Tina and I are standing at baggage claim, waiting for our luggage to appear on the carousel. I can’t but think that this is a very strange thing to be happening. One of our closet friends in currently lying in a hospital bed after major surgery. Tina is in LA, something that I never though would happen and I, well I know that seeing Shane isn’t my only motivation for this trip. I know that I have to put things right with Bette, once and for all.
For most of the flight Tina was surprisingly talkative. I’m pretty sure that this was a tactic to keep her mind off our destination, but the closer we got to the flight landing the more reflective she has become. Right now she is staring at the board that tells us we are standing in the right place to collect out luggage. I am, however, certain that she is not really seeing the board and is completely lose in her own thoughts. As I watch her my phone rings, shaking us both out of our daze. I look at the caller display, when I see who is calling I move away from Tina, hopeful that she will take care of our suitcases, if they appear.
“Ally, give a girl a chance to even get out of the airport.” I say, thinking that this call has come even sooner than I thought it would.
“Sorry Alice, I just need to know whether Tina is OK.” comes the urgent voice from the other end of the line.
“Why didn’t you call her and ask her yourself.”
“You know as well as I do that she’ll say that everything is fine when, really, she could be falling apart.”
“That’s our Tina, wouldn’t know how to give a straight answer if her life depended on it.”
“Thanks Alice, but that’s really not helping.”
“It’s the truth though, as I’m sure you have discovered.”
“Alice, let’s not go off on a tangent, not today.”
“OK, what were we talking about? Oh yeah, Tina, she’s been quiet in the last hour but I don’t think that’s anything to worry about. In fact I’m more worried about how calm she’s being over the whole thing.”
“Calm before the storm?”

I´m first and speachless, and that´s very rare….I´m absolutely clueless about this, These people need to talk, but like, really talk. And Ally, well, i´m pretty sure she´ll fly to LA and maybe that´s a good thing because she´ll see with her own eyes the power couple known as “Bette and Tina”, and Alice is right, “it’s not supposed to be easy”. GREAT history by the way, thank you for sharing it with us.
I keep holding my breath waiting for Bette and Tina to come face to face. Maybe now Tina will understand that Bette let her go to find herself. Bette seems to never have let go of Tina. I hope that Tina is able to choose to be with Bette and that Ally is not the love of her life. I hope that you are able to post soon.
Really great chapter – love how Alice is conflicted but trying to support everyone especially Tina to find out her truth. Let the show between Bette and Tina connecting begin. thanks for a great story line.
I am lukewarm to a Tibette reunion bordering on cold. This will be a defining moment because it’s clear that they issues to address and close for good. Waiting for more, post soon!
I can’t wait for them to meet up! I love it, Please continue soon :)
You have a way of putting a girl at the edge of her seat….tks, but pls don’t make us wait long…Go Bette!!!
Great writing and thinking. But I’m debating with myself if I should continue reading. If there’s a reunion ending for Bette and Tina, I’ll for sure read it through again. But if not, I’m afraid I have no courage to follow it. I hope Tina get her happiness. But it’s too cruel for me to see she get it without Bette. And I also don’t like the idea Alice tring to ‘help’ separate the couple. Why did she decide that’s for best for Tina by doing what’s for sure even not good to another ‘oldest’ friend?
Perhaps it will be a defining moment for EVERYONE.
Ally needs to keep her ass put in NY. Bette needs to fight for Tina and Bette and Alice better make up. OH…and citygirl..you can’t post soon enough
Ally and Tina will never be happy if Tina and Bette does make peace with each other. Bette gave Tina that space like Ally do the same. post again real soon
I’m really waiting, for the meeting beteen B&T. I want to hear them talking, Ally can stay out of the picture as far as i’m concerned, but she does add to the drama, and i like drams. Not too much drama, but a little drama. Al’s just doing what she thinks is best for both B&T, gotta love her for that.Anyways, you have my full undivided attention, so more please. Keep it up CG, good story.
What?! Tina and Bette didn’t meet in this chpter? I have waited it for weeks.
i hope tina will find out who she wants and i hope it’s bette, even though i like ally but beet and tina are soulmates
I am not speechless nor conflicted, I want Tina and Bette to get back together. they have spent enough time apart. Ally was a nice diversion to get Tina’s mind settled and to figure out that she does still love Bette and needs her in her life. We all know they belong together, I only wish IC believed what we know to be the truth. At least in FF they can be together. I really hope you let them get back together. Thanks for the story.
I think Alice’s heart was in the right place. Even though she and Bette had been friends for years, on the surface it was Bette’s fault that things got fucked up so it was logical for Alice to side with Tina. Notice I said ON THE SURFACE so I don’t want people saying, “OMG are you gonna insist it was ALL Bette’s fault?” No one saw what was going on in B&T’s private life so to the group it was a no-brainer to point fingers at Bette. Now on the show that lawyer thing was a little too far out there, but here, helping Tina find a job when Tina is set on leaving LA doesn’t seem so bad to me. On Ally, I can’t remember if her looks were described. I have to wonder if she resembles Bette at all…
Great, great, great….
let the talkin begin cg
I am shamelessly begging you to 1)Have Tina and Bette address the topic at hand, them, in the next chapter and 2)Please post soon! Excellent, as always, Citygirl.
Have no clue how this is going to pan out, which I like. Very interesting story CG. Thank you.
So looking forward to when Tina meets Bette. Pls continue soon …
you’re soooooooo good at this…and I’m so anxious about Bette and Tina’s first meeting.
