“You can’t. People are to type.”
Tina stepped into the order line at the Planet catching the intense dialogue between Helena and Al.
“You can too.” Helena argued. “Look at me and Bette. I went from being alpha to non alpha and so did Bette”
“You, maybe, since your whole personality changed too but that’s not the case with Bette. I think she was always just attracted to alphas and Tina was an anomaly and we both know how that worked out.”
Al was too busy making her point to read the increasingly overt warning signals that Helena was giving her to shut up. It wasn’t until she finished that she sensed her mistake and turned to face Tina.
The look on Tina’s face told her that not only had Tina heard but that her words had really hurt her.
Tina blinked back the tears that welled up and quickly turned to leave. She was already emotionally fragile from Bette’s leaving to “claim’ her new love with Tina’s help and blessing. Now her friends were essentially dismissing her as a credible part of Bette’s life.
“Tina wait.” Al pleaded, catching Tina before she got into her car.
“What Al?” Tina bit out.
“Look, I’m sorry.”
“Why because you said it or because I heard it?” Tina turned and unlocked her door. “I can only imagine that this is the tip of the iceberg of what my so called ‘friends’ have said about me for the past year. The basketball game was more than testament to the how you guys feel. Tina swung the door open forcing Al to move quickly back and took off in her car without so much as second glance.
Al just stood there feeling like a complete jerk. Tina was right. They may not have liked Tina’s decision but it was hers to make and their job to stick by her.
Tina sat in her livingroom floor playing with Angie when the doorbell rang.
Looking through the peephole, she did something she never though she’d do – she considered whether to let Alice in or not.
For whatever reason, she found herself opening the door. “Yes?” she said in way of a greeting.

i hope bette will like this new tina and forget all about jodi
Oh well RC, I guess this will do in exchange for LA .. just ;-) providing that of course your next LA posing is a nice long chapter ;-).Interesting start I must say to this stpry line and I will wait until the next chapter to comment properly. I too saw and read the spoliers and I am hoping that the writers of TLW are actually teasing us. I must say that I really cannot get into the all Bette/Jodie thing I have tried but I still look away when ever they are in any sort of love scene.Oh well I guess we will all have to wait and see
This is interesting and hope this new Tina will bring Bette back to her. Please post more, thanks!
Its an interesting theory to test out.Do people change given the situations in their life or do we stay the same through our lives.I liked Lin’s comments about the theory of tops and bottoms.That’s one of the first thngs Iearned since I realized I was gay.For me with my ex I was both at times.Maybe Bette is a verse.LOL.Keep this going.I don’t think its Kate.Is Bette gonna come around and realize that she still wants Tina?I guess we’ll see huh since its your story.
I’m excited to see where this is going. But Kate? Kate Arden??? Gross. LOL PPS
I like this one RC, your stories are always the best. This one has me thinking about T a bit more, and it leaves me afraid that she’s testing this theory based on a misguided hypothesis – more out of reaction to what she thinks Bette might have wanted as opposed to a genuine change she wants to make for herself….if she’s reinventing herself. I’ve read the spoilers and it prompted me to ask regarding the show, ‘when was the last time Tina was happy?’ I’m all for it if it makes her happy, but I don’t want her to lose herself in being someone she isn’t. She can try to change but thats just the top layer. And if thats the case, I think she should realize Bette and her are just not compatible and seek happiness elsewhere. I hate it b/c I love those two, but if they can’t find balance they should love each other on a platonic level and move on.Sorry for the long post, but I do love it and I want to see more.Also I like Kate and Tina, KaTina is hot!
congrats on your award, Love all is a great story. I do love the idea of Tina sowing her wild oats a bit in this story so please post again soon. alpha tina is so sexy!!
This should be interesting considering that Bette was to be Tina’s “first, last, and forever”. I hope that S5 plays out like that. PPS.
I am loving it!
can’t wait to see who you picked as tina’s new playmate… and i also hope its not kate… well we know its not shane, popi, gabby, … wouldn’t it be a hoot if its CANDACE… now that would get bette’s goat… hmmmmmmmm… CONGRATS ON THE AWARD… YOU DESERVED IT AND I’M GLAD YOU WON…
Great start. I’m so liking this new twist. More and soon please. Thanks.
It won’t take much to turn Tina alpha. I think BB***before Bette*** Tina was very alpha. As an exec in the movie industry, she knows how to go after what she wants. ALPHA TINA is so frickin’ HOT & I can’t wait for you to put her back on the prowl!!! Congrats on your award Robi. PS.
excellent! This looks to be just as good as Love All. I’ve always thought Tina to be the stronger of the two and love seeing her assertive alpha side.
This is a switch, and I’m hooked already. I know its not Kate, no one would be that cruel, its bad enough we have Bette and Jodi (talk about no chemistry). This Tina is going to be interesting. I think she should go all alpha and get her woman back. Congrats on the award you so deserve it.
Oh, this is going to be a good one. I am a little upset how Tina has been treated throughout seasons 3 and 4. It is about time that she either get her woman back or move on. My vote is to get her woman back but have fun in the process of winning Bette’s heart back.
Oooohh I’m first, not sure about this yet, post more quick and I will tell ya. Please let that not be Kate.
It appears that this story will be on my list of favouites….Great start! I must admit though, I look everyday hoping there will be a post of LA. If you can pps….I love your writing.
Al and Hel are so right!! Bette just needs someone controlling in bed or where ever the sex is. That’s what I always thought too anyway I have a feeling this “new” Tina is going to break all our little hearts in a goodway ;) Post soon!!!!
As they said, she’s already done Helena. Please don’t let that be Alice. Thanks!
Loved this line … “the once brazen aggressive woman cowering in the car for Al to serve as canary.” Your Al, Hel, and T make an interesting trio!
Ohhhhh, I’m so excited. An Alpha-Tina….now that’s something to behold. And who is she in bed with? PPS!!
pps-i’m liking this new tina
Great concept! It will be interesting to watch it unfold. Hmmmmm…..what’s Bette gonna say? Thanks for posting this!
I like this spin on Tina’s character, very interested to see where this goes.
Hmm, I like the Helena / Tina / Alice friendship trio.. Very interesting. But I like anything you write, Robi :] Don’t be too long with that Love All update, please! Congrats on the award, very well deserved, I think. I’m interested in this beginning.. and I too felt for T in the spoilers.. and the Promo! :( Let’s hope IC wises up, shall we? Thanks for the post, AD xx
BTW I forgot to ask…does this new Tina by accident need more woman or just one to test her theory on? If so give her my mobile number will you. Big grinning fool over here. Alpha Tina sigh.
Hey Robi,Very interesting beginning. I’ve always believed that under Bette’s “alpha”-ness was a deep core of insecurity and neediness. Her more “dominant” sexual role probably always covered an unexpressed need to be sexually vulnerable. To be a “bottom” (if this expression offends anyone, accept my apologies!) requires an entirely different mindset; I believe that she was afraid to show this to Tina just as she couldn’t show her the insecurities arising from her situation at the CAC. But she never gave Tina enough credit—she always underestimated her strength—and Tina, understanding Bette’s deep need to be in control because of her insecurities, never showed her true stripes to her. Tina is the stronger of the two on a lot of levels but was not sexually experienced enough to understand Bette’s true needs. There is something to be said for having more than one lover in one’s life. I think that she will come into her own in season 5 and learn more about her own sexuality; hopefully this will mean that the two of them will finally find a way back to each other both emotionally and sexually. Please keepthis story going—it’s really a great start. Thanks.
At first I thought I’d missed the end of “Love All” somehow and this was a sequel. I’m pleased to see that I’m wrong. Great start, I really like the idea of Alpha Tina. I do really hope that was not Hels in Tina’s bed, though. Anyway, why is Bette back so soon…? Trouble in her newly found paradise? Like I said, loved the start, looking forward to this and the next chapter of LA. And you totally deserved your award, Robi, I’m really pleased you’ve won. Thanks for the post!
Hi RC, It is great that you are doing a story from Tina’s side. I think like the others, Tina was always the stronger and now she needs to be herself to get Bette back. PPS
Hello Robi Cheau, You are an incredibly gifted writer and I am looking forward to this story. Seeing a different side of Tina is exciting, my only concern is if she is doing this to change peoples perceptions of her then why would she require her latest conquest to leave just to appease her Ex, it seems like she is trying to hide something and it is more then likely to cause more problems then anything. Also referring to the woman you brought home as “Lover” and contemplating your “Love” seems odd. It will be one thing if she is trying to see if the theory is right in regards to her and Bette’s relationship but by doing it in the shadows she is risking creating a point of no return, for both herself and a possible reconciliation with Bette. Especially if Bette is coming home empty handed (ie. No Jodie in tow). I love everything that you have written and I’m sure this will be no different so pps. Sincerely, JC
Hello Again, Another interesting dynamic is the choosing of sides. Alice telling Tina that if Bette told her to choose between B and T she would choose T, well after Bette’s infidelity everyone went over to Tina’s side, and when Tina went to Henry they went to Bette but I don’t remember Bette or Tina ever making them choose… and here that is the case Tina is asking them to choose, this could add some interesting Drama and break this tight knit family permanently. Just thinking out load… sorry for imposing, this story just brings a lot to think about :P. PPS, Sincerely, JC
WOW, Tina the mack. I love this but would still love to read the next chapter of Love All so hurry back.
This is going to be fun to watch…pl don’t forget your other story plpls
Interesting. I hope its someone new. However, I think its pretty funny that they think Bette needs an alpha when her longest relationship in her entire life, the person she had a child with, was Tina. Obviously, Tina worked it better than the others for Bette. However, I’m up for Tina having some fun and making Bette crazy with jealousy.
Hey…congratulations!!!! Well deserved!!! I will read this story with as much enthusiasm as Love All, I just ask one BIG FAVOR…PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, if you are going to say anything about spoilers, WARN us first! There are many of us who are not reading the spoilers, and don’t want to. I personally want to watch the new season fresh, with no expectations because of spoilers. So, if you want to mention in your author’s notes that this story is based on spoilers, then warn us first so I won’t read your author’s notes. I can read a story that is based on spoilers and enjoy it, without knowing it is based on spoilers. There is a difference between knowing it is based on spoilers and thinking it came from your imagination. Thanks!!
interesting- looking forward to more.
I think the theory is right. I think Bette likes the gentle nurturing woman to be at home while she has excitement elsewhere. Its common enuff for male or female and Bette Porter likes the excitement of indiscretion e.g. Cannedarse; Nadia, now Jodie. None of them are women she can be in-love with but certainly she is in-lust with their ‘come-on’ take charge attitude!!! Underneath all her bravado Bette is a diffident insecure little girl (daddy’s girl) in Stella McCartney. IMO Tina’s always been the guttsy one of the 2.
