Realizing – Chapter 12
12
“Okay, I’ve ordered dinner, as you know I still can’t cook that much.” Bette says and smiles.
“Yeah, we can’t change everything, can we?” Tina says and grins.
“I guess not.” Bette says and grins back. They walk into the kitchen and takes a seat around the table.
“So, when are you going to tell the girls that you’re moving to London in three weeks?” Tina asks as she helps Angelica into her chair.
“I’m just looking for the right moment. But I guess in a situation like this, it’s not a right moment. I’m moving away to another part of the world. They’re not going to like it.” Bette says.
“I know. I actually don’t think they will see it as negative with me.” Tina says.
“Why’s that?” Bette asks curiously.
“Well, they are just so happy that we’re trying again. And me following you to London, means that we are serious about it. It’s you they’ll blame.” Tina says and grins a little at Bette.
“Great.” Bette says and smiles. Just then there’s a knock on the front door. “Ah, the food is here.” Bette says and gets up and walks over to the door. She pays for the food and brings it back to the kitchen and the table. Tina has taken out plates and cutleries.
“What did you get?” Tina asks.
“I ordered Chinese for us and children’s pizza for Angel. Ham and cheese.” Bette says.
“Okay. It’s been a long time since I’ve had Chinese.” Tina says and opens one box.
Bette also grabs a box and begins to eat. She watches Tina as she eats. After a few minutes, Tina feels Bette’s eyes on her.
“What?” Tina asks.
“I just… It’s so unreal in a way, that we’re sitting here together eating and neither of us has to go home to someone. Deep down I’ve dreamt about this day for so long.” Bette says and gets a little teary.
“Oh babe, please don’t cry. I feel the same way.” Tina says and reaches over and softly strokes Bette’s hand.
“I’m just so happy.” Bette add and smiles.
“Mama, hungy.” Angelica says.
“Oh sorry Angel. Here you go.” Bette says and open the little pizza box and Tina smiles. Angelica goes at it with full force.

very sweet. thank you.
Wow
I loved it. They will be okay.
Love it. But what is the name of the song? Wonderful story. So happy they are reconnecting and in such a loving and beautiful way.
Songbird by Fleetwood Mac
so sweat, so tender…I wish B stayed with her longer….
Maybe I missed it, but did Tina ever ask Bette why she isn’t staying in the main bedroom? If I were Tina, I would certainly be curious about that. Or maybe I’m just confused and missing something…love the story…looking forward to the next post.
cute and sweet but bette should’ve stayed with tina
So cute. =)
They’ll be just fine. So f-ing cute.
this is one of the sweeetst stories…Take sum inspiration IC …ths how it shud be
Silent reader here. Just love your story and I have read some of your previous work. Just had to ask if the song is “Songbird”. I love that song and the few lines you wrote instantly made me think of it. The only version I’ve heard is by Eva Cassidy…anyways I’ll stop rambling..but let me know!
The Barbara Streisand “Songbird”??? Thanks!
I only know the Fleetwood Mac version of Songbird
Wow! That is the way that it should be. Bette and Tina with their daughter. I know that they have to move slowly but at least they are on the same wave length now.
That was so intimate in a non-sexual way. It was BEAUTIFUL!
awww so sweet! They are doing so well, and now Tina has a job in Londo but i would like to read that they will live together there since the beginning. Wonderful chapter!
I love fleetwoodmac songs and songbird…so beautiful, thank you, great and sweet chapter.
WOW! I loved it . Thank you
Hiya Lauren, Another wonderful interlude in this reunion and re-igniting of Bette and Tina’s partnership. It does feel like they are both committed to making this work and are prepared to go all the way. Many thanks for this delightful and hopeful tale, Your Loyal Fan.
that was so poignant, could you post the words of the song and is it norwegian, bette shoulda just slept with T, just slept!!!!!lmao…PPS
I’m loving it, sooooooo sweet, tender and hopeful. Isn’t the reason Bette is not sleeping in the master bedroon is because that is where she found her ex gf having sex with another woman? Maybe Tina can give her a reason to sleep there again.
Wow,loved it thanks
I believe this version of Songbird is done by Christine McVie.
Good chapter. They are wonderful and lovely family, I though Bette stay and fall sleep after Tina but guess not. Ok post soon please, thanks!
