"What are you doing?" Alice peered over Bette’s shoulder trying to get a peek at what Bette was typing.
“Alice I am trying to write up a proposal. I already told you that.”
“For Jodi? Because for awhile there it looked like your U-Haul was parked squarely in her garage,” Alice mused turning away from Bette to wander around the office staring at the art on the walls.
“I don’t have a U-Haul,” Bette muttered keeping her eyes on her laptop.
“Every lesbian has one, Bette. Don’t be ashamed. Yours is bigger than most granted but that shouldn’t scare anyone away. Because it’s a fact that you’re no butterface.”
“Your charm Alice is something else.”
“So, how’s Jodi?”
“I wouldn’t know.”
“I’m trying to understand this okay, Bette? Because I’m a little confused. Besides thinking about your problems is easier than thinking about mine. Anyway…”
Bette glanced up focusing on Alice for a moment waiting for her to continue.
“What don’t you understand?” she prompted, as it appeared Alice had finished speaking.
“You were all set to go after Jodi. You had that party for her. You’ve been to extreme highs and lows with this woman and then all of a sudden you’re giving that sign to Tina. Tina who left you for a man. Tina with whom you told me you were over.”
“And weren’t you the one telling me that Tina wanted me back?”
“True. But you didn’t seem that interested at the time.”
“No, I just didn’t participate in your conversation with yourself about how much Tina was ‘digging me’, as you put it. Just because I didn’t say anything didn’t mean I wasn’t listening.”
“Well that van ride was boring as hell with Shane acting like she was all ready to settle down and play house with Paige. You’d think Shay was still around the way she was acting.”
“I think Shane finally found that real piece of family she didn’t know she was looking for. Besides I think she really needed something to hang onto after Whistler.”
“She would—never mind. Never mind. I can’t even judge Shane. Well I can but I won’t. At least not right now. Back to you and Tina. What really made you change your mind, Bette? I thought you were all ready to ride off into the sunset to get Jodi back.”

I like Alice helping Bette out with her fear – and then Bette admitting fear to Tina, really nice. Thanks.
speedy…This chapter was really, really good. You write the characters so clear. Maybe Alice can help Bette on TLW to see the light. No more JoBoring!
Great new chapter.Alice deserves credit or being so insighful.PPS.
they can do anything together as long as they are together
LMAO@butterface! xD That’s been one of my favorite words since I first heard it a few years ago. That phone call was tough, but Bette will be glad she made it.
great update! and yes the call needed to made and lets things start.tibette needs thx alice for once.lol p.p.s.
This is EXACTLY what really should have happened. Heck, if I’d read your story sooner, I wouldn’t have had to start my own story! Great job.
Love it. Looovve it. Pps.
That was a giant step for them. Both admitting that they’re scared. Tina’s right, they should be scared together.
With that I am going to bed. I know that the world according to Bette and Tina is finally sorting itself out. Alice seems to always be there for both Bette and Tina. Keep Tasha safe and thanks for the B&T that most of us love.
If only…
Wow… Alice is GOOD. And so are you. I agree, with Tina, though. It’s ok if they’re scared together. Slow and steady wins the race, right? SO GOOD. Thank you.
Spot on. The whole chapter, Speed; Alice and her prodding, Bette’s fear, Tina’s response… all of it, spot on. Two thumbs up. Thank you for the excellent post.
That was intense. I don’t believe that Tibette can be back together after all the shit IC made them go through, BUT, you actually made it believable! It was amazing. I say sometimes a great writer can turn characters to life, and you’re one of these people. I’d like you for them to agonise a little more before really getting back together, coz as JB said, they’ve many issues that need to be processed, and you do it really well! :D
they do have legitimate fears. but the onlyw ay to conquer them is to face them! i do hope they have enough love for each other to take the risk again…
“Tina’s home to me. It’s as simple as that.” Bette and Tina in a nutshell. Your depiction of their mutual fear and longing is exquisite.
HOLY FRIKIN FRAKIN that was great. i mean i’m not a fan of tibette, and i don’t want them back together but that’s the POINT. they’re so intense and heart wrenching and you captured that with some amazing character development and dialogue and just the whole thaaaaang. great job. wow! ok, ok, if you write tibette, back together and all, i’ll accept it, because you’ll do it well. excellent work!
azmama have to agree with you about the Joboring!!!!!! Loving this, still can’t figure how I missed these chappies when I did start reading the story early on…great stuff…love the slow pace, their obvious feelings, Wise Alice!!!!
There u go I didn’t miss the first chappies just a couple there; this chapter was the best!!!! Thanks
Sigh finally Alice butted in when she needed too…I’m happy they woman up and admitted their feelings….llooovvveee tthhiiss
