When her flight landed, she had to take a cab home. When she walked in, she noticed that Bruce was in his office working. Something he always did while home. Even on the weekends.
Bette: Hello, Bruce.
Bruce: (not looking up) Hello, sweetheart.
Bette was mad that he didn’t get up to greet her. He didn’t even look up.
Bette: I’m filing for a divorce.
Bruce: (circling around his desk) Is this about the email I received a couple of days ago?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Her silence filled him with dread, and anger surged from the base of his temples. He controlled the anger, even though she owed him and owed him big for what he’d put up with.
Putting up with her not starting a family. Putting up with her filming all the time. And now coming in here asking for a divorce! He dug deep inside for logic.
Bette stood there motionless. Shock wouldn’t do her justice now. Why was she doing this? Why was she trying to come up with a lie? She wasn’t looking to fall in love with a woman.
She knew long ago that their marriage was on a downward slide. It wasn’t meant to be, she said to herself. Bette also knew not to confess anything to Bruce.
Bette: What email?
Bruce: One of you and Ms. Christina Kennard on a balcony.
Bette: Well, Bruce, this isn’t the first time we have gotten pictures in the mail. I can’t stop the paparazzi from taking innocent pictures. You know that.
Bruce: Yes. I would have thought that same thing, innocent, but the message that came with it made me think otherwise.
Bette: Ok. What did it say?
Bruce: That either I convince you to quit or the pictures will be sold to the tabloids. Do you know what that would do to my career?
Bette: Obviously, it’s someone who is anti-gay and doesn’t want the show to be made.
Bruce: So…what’s going on?
Bette: Going on with what, Bruce? Didn’t you hear what I said about a divorce?
Bruce: Just like that? Damn it, Bette! You’ve been gone what–a few days? And the first thing you say to me is you want a divorce? How about “It’s good to see you, Bruce, let’s start that family we talked about” or “Why don’t we sit and discuss our marriage”?

Bruce is even more aggravating the second time around. I’m waiting to see the revisions you’ve made. Please post more often. This story is getting juicy.
I dislike Bruce now more than before. When is he guiting his job Turn about is fair play. They need to be together or no deal,If Bette needs to stay home for three months then so should he. Lets play hard ball.
Geez I alrady dont like Bruce,,,,and since this is the first time I have read this story I cant wait for more..S you are awesome.
When i can find Bruce and kick him? he is so disgusting! i hope that Bette and Helena find a way to get the divorcer papers!
oh goodie! its getting good now…. this bruce has me pissed off more the second time i think then the last one…p.p.s.
Jesus, that Bruce is the masculine version of Cheryl, wanting to issue orders and totally control the one he is supposed to love. Makes me think he has to have a really small dick to be such a control freak. (Cheryl maybe didn’t have a small dick, but certainly a small soul.) Next time they go out I’d like to order him a great big steaming bowl of shit to eat. Is there any reason to think this asshole is good for his word and will give her the divorce in 3 months? Sounds like a deal with the devil to me.
Bruce has got some serious marbles! Bette better tell him to fu@k off!
Oh I love this…what is Bruce up to? Surely he is not thinking Bette wants a child with him…she should tell him that she went to the dr. and had her tubes tied of burned or something and see what that does to his wanting a family. I don’t think she will be able to be away from Tina for 3 months. Is Bruce & Cheryl in on this together? Please keep posting…I know everyone else knows whats gonna happen but I don’t so post again soon.
How can I hate Bruce even more this time than the first time? He definitely plays dirty and wants to win at all cost. Poor Bette and Tina. They are never going to be able to get their lives started with each other because of people who want to hold onto a dream.
Quitting her job??? Since when is that part of the deal. Bruce is definitely up to something…..and maybe Bette should’ve soken w/ Tina before agreeing to this little arrangement. I don’t know how happy Tina is going to be with Bette sharing Bruce’s home and more importantly his bed for the next 3 months….I see nothing but drama ahead; and I love it! Post soon please.
god he pissed me off he is more of a ass the 2nd time quit her job where dose he thank she was gone for some of those ,months ppms love it
Ahhh I just want to kill this fucking asshole, he pissing me off!
This guy is pissing me off more the 2nd time around.
Since I’m playing catch up…Bruce is a pr*ck and I’m already tired of him! The way you do mysteries, I’m doubting whether it was Cheryl who took the pic. Meanwhile, Alice is always a trip, and I can see Alpha Helena ripping Bruce’s heart out in court! Ooh! I can see why everyone wanted to see this one again, baby! I can’t wait to see it all the first time! Since it’s already written, you can post more often, you know–just have a chat with your editor!
yep..I still hate Bruce. This is about where I want him to drop dead. PPS
The divorce war excellently is planned. I hope this idiot of Bruce gets one missed correctly. One only can hope that these 3 months do not become a hell and find it stronger to each other through this for Bette and Tina. In addition, Tina has time perhaps also through this to out herself finally.Post soon a new Chapter.
wHAT????? When are u quitting your job??? i DIDN’T HEAR HER MAKE THAT DEAL!!!! and those 3 months will feel like 300 years…and no I don’t rust him one iota…after 3 months he can just add some other barrier…he is SO typical of a male chauvinist prick!!!! I hate him already. PPS
Well Suc, I had forgotten how nasty and desparate Bruce could be. I recalled that Cheryl was a psycho but Brue is just good ole fashioned evil. I do hope that Bette knows what she is doing and that she and Tina have a better escape plan than the first incarnation of this story. What is constant is the wonderful way you loving craft and birth this tormented and twisted tale. It was heartache for Tina without Bette and vice versa. So please continue soon and shows us that the good gal always gets her gal. Brilliant, a little delight for a Friday. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
oh dear – why do i think this is going to get nasty & tina is going to want nothing to do with B when Bruce starts parading her around showing they are doing good to the world??
I hadn’t forgotten how much of a butt hole Bruce was or the nut case that Cheryl was. I just still LOVE this story and am awaiting the arrival of Kit and her family. GO B&T forever!!
This is why people commit murder. Can’t Bette get a no-fault divorce in California? Oh…where would the story be then…nevermind. Thanks! I couldn’t stop seeing Tina, so I would just embarass Bruce until he gave up. Thanks! SAVE BABY A!
