Truth
Tina cracked a eyelid open. She was amazed by how bright the sun was. Even through the blinds she could feel the rays penetrating her eyes, making them hurt. She shut her eyes again and turned over. She was momentarily shocked to discover that she wasn’t alone. Then she remembered. She had taken Bette to bed with her last night, with a promise never to let her go.
“You know that if you let me in your bed I’m not leaving, you’ll have to put up with me all night, you know that, don’t you?” asked Bette, in that teasing tone that Tina couldn’t resist.
“I have no intentions of letting you go anywhere. Isn’t that the point?” asked Tina, not letting Bette have it all her own way.
“I guess it is.” surmised Bette, an inscrutable look on her face.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” asked Tina, trying to read Bette’s expression.
“It wasn’t supposed to mean anything, other than, I don’t want to go anywhere. I can’t think of a place on earth where I would rather be than right here, with you.”
“Do you always say the right thing?”
“Believe me, sometimes I say the complete opposite of the right thing.”
“I don’t think that I believe that.”
“Stick around, and you will.” said Bette, frowning slightly.
“Don’t be hard on yourself baby.” said Tina, reaching up to gently cradle Bette’s face in her hands.
“I can’t help it, I just want everything to be perfect, for you…”
“For us.” corrected Tina.
“Yeah, for us.” said Bette, the smile returning to her face.
“That’s better. I don’t like to see you unhappy.”
“I don’t think that I can be, not now you’re here, turning my life around, making it so much better than I ever thought possible. I don’t even know how to thank you for that.” laughed Bette, shyly.
“You don’t have to thank me for anything. Just seeing you smile, seeing the way that you look at me, the love in your eyes. That’s all I need to comprehend to know how much I mean to you, and it blows my mind that you tell me. That you never leave me in any doubt about how you feel.”

Congrats on thw win and welcome back
Ahhhh…. just pure bliss…. I so want this for Bette and Tina. Congrats on your award – it’s so well deserved. Thank you!
Yes, girl, congratulations. Lamentamini, I too thought of Edith Ann, but citygirl, you may not be familiar with her. Edith Ann was a character, a little girl who made wry observations on life, played by Lily Tomlin on “Laugh In” an American TV show of the late 60s that featured a mix of skits, black outs, one liners, and stand up. It was comic, manic, extremely of it’s time, and of considerably more politcal import than anyone was accustomed to from TV at the time. “And that’s the truth” was Edith Ann’s habitual punch line. Did I just digress? Anyway, girl, I’m very glad to see you back. And THAT’S the truth.
