A Few Extra Scenes for Episode Eight
“I still love you, you know,” Tina said, her head bowed, not sure what to expect in response.
“I love you too,” Bette replied. She did. Such feelings didn’t evaporate over night regardless of what had transpired between them.
“It’s so hard Bette. I miss you so much sometimes. I miss our life.”
Bette reached to take Tina’s hand in hers while Tina continued.
“I know we’ve had our struggles. Fighting about custody, visitation, Angelica’s pre-school. Just trying to find a balance to our relationship. But sometimes I think I made a mistake.”
“You don’t have to think about it that way,” Bette replied. She stood and silently moved to sit beside Tina, embracing her.
Tina let out a long sigh as she practically melted into Bette. On the table in front of them Bette’s cell phone started to quietly ring. Their hug ended not long after it began as Bette reached for the phone.
She flipped it up to reveal a text message from Jodi, read it and set it down again.
“Jodi’s started to make some progress on a piece she’s been working on for a while so she’s not going to be stopping by,” Bette explained.
“I’m sorry I’m not going to get a chance to meet her,” Tina said. She didn’t really mean it. She could go forever without meeting Jodi and be perfectly fine with that. It just seemed like the right thing to say.
“Another time,” Bette said.
“Do you love her?”
“I don’t know,” Bette replied. “It’s early days, I have no idea where it’s going. I didn’t think I’d be starting over again at this stage of my life.”
“It’s odd not to be with you some days,” Tina agreed.
“Hi!” The voice came from the other side of the room as Angelica waved her greeting to her moms.
“There are many times I wish we were raising her together instead of shuttling her back and forth,” Bette sighed as she waved and smiled at their daughter.
“Being here today just seems more right than anywhere else I’ve been for the last few months,” Tina said quietly. Tina placed her hand on Bette’s thigh and let it linger, perhaps just a bit too long.

If only… I still don’t know if them jumping into bed would ultimately, in a very backwards way, expediate all the healing they need to do, but I do know that I wouldn’t mind seeing it one bit! Thanks, JKS!
As usual, JKS, your stories render me speechless. Magnificent!
Ditto to what NY wrote. I would love to see this occur in Epi 12. I truly believe they could work things out. For some reason, Bette is enamored w/Jodi. And I don’t understand except that IC wants it that way. I loved it.
wow! things are so beautiful in fan fic world. great chapter jks. ditto to nygaylady, If only!
I’m with azmama. I could see Bette hooking up with Jodi once or twice, but a relationship? Yuck. Good job on this!
What they all said!
I had a girlfriend in college who reminds me a lot of Tina. She’d be with me for a few months, leave me for Henry, and come back to me for fabulous (if I do say so myself!) sex with the ex. Good times. Good times. NOT. She broke my baby dyke heart. I hope our girls end up better.
Thanks for writing what most of us want to see happen. Luv your writing and can’t wait for more.
now that is how i woulda liked to see things play out in that scene…..awesome……how did you know what we were thinkin??? lol…..greatt….thanx….
my thoughts excatly like everybodys elses.would of love to see it happen,but they should try to be freinds first,then maybe lovers again.jodie doesnt deserve bettes love,and respect.p.p.s.
Mmmm, mmmm, good. Sex first, friends first, either way you can make it happen for us. Just like you had Jodie not arrive at an inoportune momemnt. Keep up the good work.
Quite nice. Thanks! (Now, if there’s a way to make this happen…)
Love the fantasy.
Mmmm…yes, let them sleep for a while. Very nice. The only problem with you writing single chapter is that I am always left wondering what would happen next!
If only!!!
i really don’t care when or how, i just want tibette together and this was good alternative to ep. 408…thanks
always happy to read whatever you write, JKS. all i can say is if only…
See? Now this is what should’ve happened… I’m still hopeful… stories like this one keep me optimistic for Bette and Tina. Thank you for that, JKS!!!
What a wonderful afternoon delight. Only if it could last and only if that could be the beginning of their lives together as one again. I would rather read you stories than watch the train wreck that IC has in store for them.
Your one-offs always leave me in awe of your talent and no doubt little by little I have to admit that B&T could be amazing together and that I would actually like to see a reunion, but a reunion in S4 would seem forced and there really isn´t a ground solid enough for them to built on. Of course there´s an attraction and right now Tina seems a little more desperate realizing that the security, the acceptance and the straight quiet life she thought she wanted really isn´t fulfilling at all. Somehow I think we can all relate to what made Tina act the way she did, especially if we have children. But the journey back to Bette (?)will be equally trying. Right now it seems Tina is in a proces of replacing without really knowing what it is she wants to replace. Hopefully IC will make time for this proces.
Delicious! Thanks for the bandage :) and congrats on the recent award.
Hmmm, yeah. This worked for me. They can always talk later. Nice one, jks, thanks.
Wow, awesome! Wouldnt mind seeing this happen on the show, but they’ve got a long road to get there. Fan fic world is so much better :)
i sure as hell wish you wrote for showtime, great job, great chapter!!!!!
I wish!!! Please send this to IC w/ a nice note stating that this is what L Word fans are waiting for.
my tibette heart is doing such a happy dance!!!god i love the way you peer into my head. thanks.
Damn that was awesome, this is what we all looking and wanting for, why they can make you B&T get back together like this. Thanks JKS!!!
great….
Wonderful….If only…
Great soooooo hope that happens in the show but not holding my breath. PPS
Well we’re allowed to dream right….until this one day again is on the show!!
O my, apple pie … that was hot. Encore … if you please, obviously for them, not for our reading pleasure !? Thank you JKS, twas lovely.
