    Author Notes:

    And to her surprise, Bette could see, again, herself flying that sky and navigating that sea. Tina’s eyes were there to smooth her return. Her eyes always had this power. And others.

    Previously

    Again, her body united forces with Bette, sharing the need:

     “T”? 

    Tina curved her body, the tears advancing, winding down her face. Tina let her eyes flow over Bette’s face. The perfect dark eyelashes gaining life, trying to focus, still afraid to expose the profound waters of that dark lake: her eyes. She searched Bette’s ear. 

    “Shhhhh….Shhhhhh….Babe…I’m here. Don’t worry… I´m here. You can feel me…You always could.”

    ****************

    Bette  felt the terrible taste in her mouth, but her lungs, her brains, all her body needed to confirm.

    “ You’re here, T…You’re here…”

    Tears never stop.

    “Yes, babe, I’m here waiting for you…”

    And Bette´s mind rests once more.

    *******

    Tina was waiting, and waiting was a tough task.

    Tina discovered she was incapable of so many things these days. So many things to do but her mind couldn’t focus. Besides, it was so difficult to do something without sharing, discussing, or at, least fighting with Bette, the last excuse to meet her ex lover.

    When they were separated, it was different, but sometimes hard as ever. When Tina was with Henry and things cooled a little, Tina sometimes caught herself with that need.

    The need to share. Share a laugh. A comment…about a book, the weather, the coffee, the shampoo, “the fool on TV and the news of the world”.

    She missed sharing about Angel. It was hard, because Angel recalled Tina constantly from her past, from the love. And it was hard he didn’t share with Bette her little daily conquers.

    Bette was very important to her life. So important. A part of her daily basis.

    Until they stopped.

    Stopped to share.

    Until they discovered they didn’t share enough or even, they hide this knowledge from each other.

    Tina began to thank God. She had this group of ladies as friends. Kit took care of everything, including the girls schedule to watch Angelica.  All of them worried about Bette. She saw Alice, Shane and Kit in complete despair. And this brought a sense that never should leave Tina again: “You become responsible forever, for what you tamed.”

    Finally Tina saw, that in life, it was so hard to find love, to share affection, and be really close to someone. It was hard to find people who naturally proved that they loved you for what and who you are, and not what you have to give. It was hard to find people that help you to grow. And when you find it you should never take it for granted, cause love is not merchandise. You didn’t find it everywhere. Life is not a TV commercial. And for Christ sake we forget about love and life. God! Life became a horrible cartoon. We became ghosts. Reflections of what we continuously dream, not from what we have. Nowadays life became a trash movie. And we decided that. We demand in terms of power and money who is the winner and who is the loser and we forgot happiness. We postponed. We stressed. We silenced. Then in relationships, we became an I. And the I became alone. Sure, money is great. Work is great and better if you can put things together: love the job and get paid well for that. But, fuck! And now…What? I’m fucking here waiting for the love of my life to wake…Awaken…Something so normal, that I took it for granted. Something so unrecognized that I prefer to let it go.  And now I’m here waiting for Bette to awake, when I once, couldn’t even stay in her presence…

    1. See, now at first I was all mad and thought, well how dare you not post for sooooooooo lonnnnnnnnnnng! Then when I see those lovely letters BRAZ, I know there is some good reading ahead, now if only you could take a page out of Chcki’s book and do 1 a day “wink”.. ha ha, ANother great chap Braz

    2. Braz,that was beautiful!!! Ok, I forgive you (thought all 16 “I’m sorry” were cute)Writing an article for an idiot who is not open minded, GO GETTUM TIGER ROOOOAR!!!! You tell them Braz, and if you need some help kicking some ass, you just let me know and I’ll be more than happy to help you out!!! Yes, Braz you are silly (ya, I bet you were wondering*wink*)Thanx for posting babe!!!!

    3. You are so beautiful Braz. I’m so relieved that Bette is going to be OK. If B&T can’t get their shit together and start loving and respecting each other again I’m going to join Kit in kicking their asses! I loved your Antoine de Saint-Exupery reference and when Tina asks herself “God, is human kind so blind that it only learns through the pain?” I have to answer with one of my favorite quotes: “It’s unfortunate but it’s true!” Some lessons can learned by some only by taking a long hard journey through excruciating pain. I just hope B&T have finally how lucky they are to have each other. I am awe struck at how very talented you are Braz! Thank you for answering my pleas and letting Bette come through it. It is love that gives Bette strength. And Tina need not be jealous because it is her love that flows in Bette’s heart. Braz you are an inspiration…give the dumb ass at the city newspaper a slap from me! It is a fool that point out the small insignificant differences between human beings because we are all so much more alike than we are different. Love you Braz! Please post soon!

    4. I am so happy and giddy with the love that is flowing between Bette and Tina. With all that has happened Bette still loves Tina and vise versa. I love a jealous Tina because that means that she absolutely loves Bette.

    5. Unfortunately sometimes it takes nearly loosing someone to realize what they truly mean to you. So happy to see that TIna has figured this out. I like that line, ” I asked God for another chance”. Now lets get the healing to begin.

    6. well, there is nothing like “almost” loosing the one you love/d, to remember just what LOVE is… and that you’d better hold on to it, because it was such a close call… now on to read the next chapter (I’m soooo late)

    7. Braz, there are SOOOOO many parts of your stories that really hit home for me. I love this part, among so many: “Finally Tina saw, that in life, it was so hard to find love, to share affection, and be really close to someone. It was hard to find people who naturally proved that they loved you for what and who you are, and not what you have to give. It was hard to find people that help you to grow. And when you find it you should never take it for granted, cause love is not merchandise. You didn’t find it everywhere.” Isn’t it so very true. There are people who have expectations of you on so many levels, and want you to be who and what you are not. Your stories are so profound. They speak of love and hoe deep that love goes, and how it manifests in both romance, purity, and even lust and desire. The loyalty that needs to exist. I am not one to ever be close to someone, and then following an absence, decide to befriend someone that hurt that person. It’s not classy, but instead extremely superficial and ends up degrading every level of emotion you ever shared together. You speak of desire and lust, and how important it is to keep that passion and spice alive. I am one that needs that in my life as well, both to give and receive. I couldn’t imagine having a mundane intimate life. That doesn’t always mean that sexual intercourse is required, but simply that touch, that look, that kiss, that hug. You and I have shared so many details of living, loving, and learning. Thanks for being a supportive friend. You have explained things in such ways both via your story and our personal communications. As cor that Carmine story….All I will say is you better have one hell of a Disclaimer on that, AND that Blackout, which I was JUST recommnending to three gals last night.Okay sweetheart, I am off to spend a day at the park with my two gals, Nessie and little Nat. She did the cutest thing this morning when I fed her some watermelon sherbert (the 18 month old not Ness. LMAOO!!!!). Anyway, she kept curling up her lips and frowning when she first tasted it, cause it does have a slight bitter taste until it settles on your tongue. Once it did, she then smiled and opened her mouth for more. BUT that initial taste was FUNNY AS HELL!!!!!!! Off to the park now babe. Talk to you later. *MWAH* xoxox

    8. I’m crying again…that’s two stories today that I’ve cried at and it’s not even noon here…that was so beautifully written…I’m glad they’ve connected, even if it had to be through pain…pps

    9. Absolutely beautiful! It true when in danger of loss, you really appreciate the good and learn to put the bad in its place. If this was the push that Tina need to accept her feelilngs, than Bette’s accident served a purpose. I don’t think Tina nor Bette will ever take for granted what they had or could have in the future. It would have truly been sad for Bette to never be able to see Tina and her family again and her family to have to accept a life without the Porter smile. Thanks for the update.

    11. Braz hun u r absolutely a wonderful writer and this chapter so worth the wait. The part about seeing rightly only with the heart is just so profound, wow. Thank u for posting despite being so busy. :) PPS

    14. Hello Braz, My Dear. What a joy. It was a favor to come home in the eveing of a stress rich working day and to find a new chapter of this excellent Story. My evening is saved. A long time was the wait now of course. The chapter is excellent again. The strong love is unbelievable for this two for each other. If Tina Bette sees in the eyes and finds there Bette’s infinite love for her, is warming my heart. I look forward already to the next chapter. Love your writing. PPS
