Say So: Part 12
"Baby, you home?" Bette called out as she came through the door and sat her bag down. She began unbuttoning her jacket. She tossed it to the couch. The smell of Cuban food hit her nose as she came closer to the kitchen. The sound of Nina Simone was playing in the background as Tina began setting out plates. She didn’t even notice that Bette was standing behind her, watching her bob her head and swing her hips, her sun dress spinning around. Bette smiled at her great luck. She had been lucky enough to have Tina in her life, now and in the past.
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel
It was as if life had handed her everything in the world, but it was the biggest struggle she’d ever experienced trying to keep it. They had to work for it. They had to fight for it. They had to cry, they had to hurt, they had be in excruciating pain for it to work. But it worked. It didn’t matter how long it took for them to work through their issues because Tina would always be there, waiting for Bette to come back to her. Bette would always be waiting in the wing for Tina to rescue her.
Its a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me
She placed her hands on Tina’s hips and felt Tina jump. She turned around to see Bette smiling at her.
"You scared the shit out of me." Tina said. Bette leaned in and kissed her.
"Sorry. I was just so entrenched in watching you dance."
"I have absolutely no rhythm, Bette."
"You seem like you have rhythm everytime you dance with me."
"That’s because I have a wonderful partner to lead the way."
"You’ll always have me to lead the way, when you need me."
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me
Bette took Tina into her arms and started to sway with her. Whenever their skin met, Bette felt that familiar jolt. A familiar shock that Tina always seemed to cause within her body.

This is really really sweet :) loved it. Really good spin on the ending too :) PPS
Great update. The line: {“I love you. I love us. I love our family.” Tina whispered against Bette’s waiting ear. Bette felt her heart lightened as the words began fiilling her body, “Never leave. Never let me leave.”} really touched me. Lovely :) Thanks for this, Ash. ADx
Aww. That was very sweet. I dug it. PPS.
The answer is yes.
A-are you serious? You’re just going to leave it like that! You better come back soon, and Tina better say yes damn it! lol
great chapter, i could picture everything perfectly, great job!!!!
The quality more than compensates for the brevity, ash. Elizabeth Ziff would never have had the good taste to use the divine Ms. Simone in a romantic Tibette scene.
wow where is the rest of this chapter..coming soon I hope, great job and beautifully done
very nice… now the answer is yes… on to the wedding
I’ve always loved that song. Will hold special new meaning to me now. well done.
You’re doing a great job, ash. They are so magical together. PPS.
So now we know Tina listens to Bette even when she’s drunk. So glad she asked again when she sobered up! Love this story! PPS
Yeah, marry her Bette and put us all out of our misery. PPS

Wonderful chapter! I have been listening to that song a lot lately. It’s a great song! Thanks!

YAY, perfect once again ash,,,,,
Wow, that was beautiful. I will always love Bette and Tina when they are close and comfortable with each other. First they have to be comfortable in their own skin and then able to share that skin with each other.
