Those Adoring Eyes – Chapter 3
Those Adoring Eyes – Part 3
The silence between us remained as we continued to look into one another’s eyes, god I missed her, I missed so much about her, my eyes welled but I continued to look and search those adoring eyes, I missed her being a part of my life, I missed waking up next to her, I missed her lips against mine, I missed feeling her warm body snuggle up behind me, I missed wrapping my arms around her in the bathroom as she cleaned her teeth, I missed coming home from work and seeing her smile, her smile, my tears spilled as I remembered her smile, the smile that warmed me, the smile that melted my heart.
I missed being able to tell her that I loved her, I loved her so very much.
I still loved her… I still loved her and it hurt not to be able to tell her.
“Tina…”
“Bette…”
“T…”
“I’ve left him…”
………………………………………………………………………………
I opened my mouth to reply, but no words came out, my eyes are blinking furiously as I take in the three words she had just uttered. She left him, but when, why, I thought earlier she had told me that he knew she was at the beach, but didn’t know the reason she was here.
“Did you hear what I said Bette?”
I merely nodded. I had been thinking about how much I missed her and how I missed telling her how much I loved her and she drops what I would call a bombshell.
I’m not sure what I was going to say to her before she uttered those words, was I going to tell her that I loved her, was I going to tell her that I missed her, if I delve into the depths of my soul, the soul she possessed, and I’m honest with myself, I would probably of told her both, that I loved her and I missed her, her words didn’t change that feeling within me, but now was not the right time to tell her those things.
I continued to look into her eyes, which I now noticed were welling with unshed tears, my heart went out to her, of all the things in the world, to see Tina upset was not something I ever wanted to do, all I wanted to do at that moment was to take her in my arms.

You made me cry… My heart wrenched and I have never read anything that even comes close to this beauty… You are a genius, Jo! Thank you so much for sharing your incredible gift with us!
Jo, that was SO incredibly beautiful. Heart-wrenching in places, but overall just wonderful. Completely made my day. Glad you wrote more than the initial post. Just…. gah…. so fabulous.
I’m with Anngie, you transport us there, witnessing & feeling what these two are going through. Jo, words don’t always describe the emotions you ignite in us readers but please continue to make me laugh, make me cry & every thing in between!
Beautifully written, very heart wrenching and emotional. The poem was beautiful. Maybe this is their beginning again. thanks
This was a very emtional but awe-inspiring chapter. It shows just how true love can over come any circumstance that lays itself in the way of migrating down the road of life. Love is fragile and yet strong at the same time. It takes work and time to rest to be efficent with all that is thrown it’s way. The three chapters of this story are an example of how most of us see Bette and Tina. Thank you for putting all this into words for us to see and feel.
The story was amazing the peom was awesome wonderful wonderful story THANK YOU
Lovely.
This fic is simply the best fic i’ve ever read. I just can’t get over it. Job..your sincerely truly talented. The poem, that beautifully written poem was so moving. Words that bette, has been waiting so long to say to Tina. And finally,she’s getting it off her chest.This is the B&T i love. They break your heart, and witht his stroy i feel their pain.But there’s always hope. Their son is watching over them,waiting for their reunion as well. Post soon Job.This fic is Outstanding.
God, another wonder ! This is just beautiful, Jobadge. I think I don’t even want to find other words to describe this fine work… I wouldn’t find enough superlatives anyway… One thing though is really worrying me, it seems like The end of the story, like B&T went full circle. Please tell me I’m wrong and this is not the last chapter of your story Jobadge ! … Pleeeeease… You wouldn’t do this to us anyway, would you ?
this chapter was flowing and the poem was just perfect…thank you
Bloody Fantastic!
I love this story. I love the writing, the feeling put into it, and I loved the poem. Thank you so much for going past the initial chapter.
*sniff, sniff BLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW* I think you made all of your readers create a tissue shortage in the world. We’re now forced to resort to crappy 1-ply public restroom toilet paper. I’m definitely glad I waited till I was away from the office to read this. So many people have commented so I can’t really add anything no one has thought to mention. “We caught each other.” And that’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown. Well, maybe not Christmas, but definitely love.
I have to say I have been reading many stories for a while & I haven’t left but maybe a couple of comment. But this story is excellent & I can say that i have never had tears in my eyes until i read this story. TLW could use a writer like you. If only they could film what the viewers really want to see. thanks for such a wonderful story.I can tell you are a very caring,beautiful person by the way you write.

Hey sweetie – damn you did it again, my eyes are red and swollen :o)) OMG (I had to say it LOL)….this is as beautiful, emotional and heart wrenching as only you can do it….you’re the fanfic queen!!!! Thanks for talking me into reading this story and for sharing the journey with us. I’m so glad you, Em and JT have found eachother, your guys are the sweetest little family :o))
amazing
An other so beautiful piece of sensitivity, a rainbow-effect work of pure emotions – between tears and smiles… This story simply melts me, deep in my heart. And two sentences here particularly touched me. The first – “When I am strong you are my weakness, when I am weak you are my strength…” – for its tender beauty. And the second one – “I’d been finding it hard to express myself, express the pain I was feeling, the emotions I was feeling (…), and when I began to write, they wouldn’t stop, it was refreshing, it was cleansing, it allowed me to unload so many things that were inside of me.” – for the so deep resonance it evokes in me, on an acurately personal point of view… I was there too (far all these last months) and, yes, writing was also my salvation – my only one. — Many thanks for this story of yours, you’re really talented. Do I need to add I’m totally hooked on it ? I don’t think so, it’s obvious enough ! ^_^
I knew I should have waited to read that chapter. That was just so beautiful…thanks Jo.
… Oh, I just forgot to say that : I love the poem a lot !
Thanks for adding on to the initial chapter. It was a joy to read.
Go, girl! I love it, as usual! Thanks , JO!
Wow Jo this was so complete in your thought and emotion. I sit here this morning trying to put together another chapter to post and I take a break to read your chapter. It leaves me in awe .. red eyes and foggy mind. I don’t know how to move forward I just love this whole group of chapters every since you gave me that sneek peak. This was amazingly beautiful. Thanks is all I can say
Hiya Jo, Great to have another fabulous post from you. It is such a real pleasure to read and follow the gals on this road back to each other. It is fraught with dangers and misteps but their determination and belief in one another is paramount to their success. I feel liek I’m in an emotional whirlpool that tries to pool me under with one twist and then bouys me up with the next. This maelstrom of sensations and consciousness is such a genuine thrill and roller coaster ride. It is down to your marvellous talent and genius that every word drawns the reader yet farther into the story. Words are such an inadequate means for proffering my gratitude and appreciation. So a simple tahnk you is all I have but please realize the emotional weight and importance of these two words. Please continue this magnificent masterpiece. Your Loyal Fan. PS – And running it concurrently with the lightness and humor of “Situations” only further cements your narrative dexterity.
Beautiful – and so tender! Thank you.
great, great job with this story, especially this chapter!!!!!!
What a great story this is and this chapter is a wonderful addition. You’ve captured so many layers of emotion!
Incredible. I’m all teary-eyed.
The simultaneous strength/weakness involved in loving is precisely why it is so meaningful and has the potential to be so painful. Nicely explored and very satisfying that they are together again. You are going to follow that up, aren’t you? Now, with your “Situations” series, I think it is high time to stop teasing us and give us one of your blazing NC-17s.
I forgot to say something to you, Jo…The great thing about your story is something that IC forget completely… People made mistakes, got lost,got mad,people cry, shout, fight, but, they TALK! I mean people try to solve the problems…They clear things up… And this is good. And this is much more “us”…(sure,I´m generalizing, but I prefer to thing that we can clarify thing instead of been fighting all the time…) and , in your case, i s also beautifully written… MORE! MORE! MORE!Thanks!
tha was poignant, kind, ever so gracious as bette always is, and sweet, especially sweet, YOU BROUGHT THEM TO LIFE, I CAN SEE THEM EVEN NOW WALKING ON THAT BEACH WITH SAD WISTFUL MEMORIES FOR THEIR PAST AND WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IF THEIR SON LIVED and i think that tragedy was like the titanic for them, their grief had to run its course; now its over, great one PPS…sorry about capitals, i’m not shouting at you, a mistake i’m too tired to fix.
Wonderful story, beautiful poem..love is so tender and gentle from your heart..Thank you.
Simply beautiful. Wow.
Beautiful, simply beautiful! Is this the end of this piece? I hope not, but I certainly look forward to you resuming the remembrances and seeing your “Situations”! Girl, you’ve got such range! Once again, thanks for sharing your beautiful gift with us!
WOW… WE ALL CAN ONLY HOPE AND PRAY THEY COME BACK TOGETHER THIS WAY… thanks Jo… please continue
Totally awesome JB! You take me there and let me watch like a fly on the wall (or a sandcrab at the beach!) You are the best.
So beautiful, Thank you Your weiting is the Best. I hope we get more of this story. Bette’s words were genuine and full of love. PPS
So beautiful!!! Thanks jo.
