There has to be something else something that Tina can’t reach. Something else that has her feeling a certain level of discomfort but yet she is unable to articulate.
It was on this thought that Tina hears the front door open and close. The sudden clarity of the situation crashes on Tina’s consciousness. In her minds eye she can see Bette walking out of the house.
“Bette”
The pounding of her heart suddenly intensifies, along with the humming in her ears. A sudden chill settles in on her despite her prolific sweating. Putting her hand to her chest to hold her heart in place Tina tries to start for the door but is besieged by a stabbing pain that spears her stomach doubling her over. Tina is lost to the pain. Double over panting trying to hold on the best she can as each second is another breath.
“Bette … Bette”
Time for Tina stood still.
“Bette has left her … Bette has left her and it is all her fault. When will she ever realize that if she doesn’t trust Bette that there is no glue in this world that can hold them together?”
“She loves Bette and she needs to quit keep score. Unconditional love is what she needs to give Bette. Is can’t be self seeking and it certainly doesn’t keep records on wrongs. Bette!”
Chapter 18
"If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins." Benjamin Franklin
Bette could hear the blare of the news broadcast get louder as she neared the living room. Since it was the only noise coming from the room Bette braced herself to face what she assumed would be a stoic Tina. Turning the corner Bette looked into the room. It took only a moment for her feet to fly to the prone body of Tina stretched out before her. Intuitively Bette knew that Tina was having a panic attack. All the signs were there for her to recognize. Bette’s body actually reacting and moving in the right direction before her conscious mind could command it.
The urgency of the situation jolted Bette out of any complacency on her part. Gone was the detachment which Bette was trying to instill to get her through the rest of the afternoon. Gone was any thought of not being right here with Tina helping through this. Tina needed her, Bette recognized this fact immediately.

great story, i love it…
Sorry about the big guys but thanks for taking the time to continue with this story. It is about time that Tina is finally able to understand what she does to Bette every time she lashes out at her. I am happy to hear that they are finally able to go forward and continue to work towards being better partners. So Angelica is still alive. I hope that she gets home safely to her parents.
Good that they talk but now let see whats happen to Angie and Dan, please let them be safe. Please post soon, thanks!
Awesome – in the way that only you can be awesome – depth of emotion and clarity as the characters search their souls for how much they love and how they let their pride egos and fears get in the way. thanks for writing in the sky it couldn’t have been easy.
Well, I’ve just read all the latest chapters in one breathless session. The suspense, woman! You’re writing in top form, wherever you’re writing. I’ll add my voice to the chorus of those waiting for the next chapter. Thanks a million.
Hullo there, rose between two thorns, lmao at that image…great they made up even if it did take a panic attack…they are such bastards!!!!…Is that Angelica up the tower surrounded by water, she’s a brave kid, get her home safely and u too. PPS
J,hun thxs for the update and least they are talking now its start.sounds like your stuck between a hard place and a rock on the plane.lol lovin this.post when u can.:)
oh, it is going to be a good day…a Jwet post (even if it is a mean cliffy!) i’m so glad you found a way for b/t to recognize what they were doing and what is needed to fix it. can’t wait till the next post (whenever it is in the next few weeks) b/c that will be an Angelica post (?) and we can find out what is happening to our little angel! thank you for the post!!! love this story
Mile High Club…LOL! OK, I am SO happy they are talking, but I am on the edge of my seat regarding Dan and Angie! What’s goin’ on with them? Are they ok?
I am soo happy, if only in the world of your story T & B were finally able to speak their heart felt truth. Beautiful update.
I hate the middle seat. But this was a good way to distract yourself from the misery of competing for armrests on both sides. I hope you didn’t have a 3 year old kicking the back of your seat. Well, was that Angelica? What happened to Dan?
This is such a lovely story. Thank you Jwet.
god your just killing us here. giving us all this and NOW going to have some fun. ;) this is an excellent story. am so enjoying it. have a good time. and if… please send us another one. thanks.
Ugh!! I hate the middle seat, too. What dedication to the story and your fans to write at 33,000 feet. It is really appreciated. If you are so possessed while on vacay feel free to send in another episode. Enjoy!
Well now that you have posted, go grab one of the hot flight attendants and become a true member of the Mile high Club! You deserve a little something after all of these great updates! Still rooting for Dan and angie to pull through this thing in one piece. I like how the Tina/Bette story line is ebbing and flowing similarly or sort of parallel to the storm and what Angie/Dan are experiencing. PPS
Thanks for the mile high typing and the post. I’m enjoying the tale you are weaving.
Whew, such a relief. You are amazing!
You know, I bet those guys who were sitting either side of you on the plane are now also wondering if it was Angie…, because you can bet your last dollar they would have been reading over your shoulder!!
This was an excellent chapter. Thank you! Can’t wait to see how you get Angelica out of trouble.
J, this is absolutely amazing writing. I can say, as a woman who had suffered panic attacks, you wrote the feelings so accurately. I have found, especially over the last 6 months, they have disipated almost completely now. Having the love and support of someone who does love you unconditionally, and helps you through those moments are special and one which is held dear. I see that connection with B&T in this chapter in particular, when one knows the other so much. Please post SOON!!!!
J, you truly have it all. You are able to totally capture the emotional part…my God, I was RIGHT THERE when Bette was comforting Tina, bringing her back from the brink…then you are able to break down the thought processes in such a true and believable way that had me nodding my head in agreement…then, with one swift kick you end the chapter leaving us hanging onto your cliffhanger by the tips of our fingers. You are one hell of a writer Ms. J, and I for one am deliriously happy that you are posting again!!! Thanks!
Hey JWet, What a delight it is to havce you back posting more of this awesome adventure. My day is made. Thank you for this open discussion between Bette and Tina. They each know that they have to work at their relationship but were shocked at the ease with which they slipped into old habits. They each managed to say and do the exact opposite of what they wnated to. Bette’s instinct to assist Tina was primal and should that there was hope for their future. Now I want them to look towards working together for Angelica’s safe return. And then you pile on the drama with a fantastic cliff hanger. More please. Right now. I adore your wonderful words and skilful ability to paint the scene. Brilliant. Many thanks, From Your Loyal Fan.
