Sunday Mornings: 5 – Tears Before Bedtime …
Sunday Mornings: 5.
You’re trying my shoes on for a change
They look so good but fit so strange
Out of fashion, so I can complain
You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you well. . . so well
I know who I am, but who are you?
You’re not looking like you used to
You’re on the other side of the mirror
So nothing’s looking quite as clear
“Bette …?” Tina paced around the parking lot, waiting to calm down before she went back inside the club, “Bette?” she struggled to hear, “are you there?”
Bette answered the phone whilst chewing on a piece of pepper, “Tina … hi … what’s up?”
She stepped away from the kitchen and out of range of Jodi’s sight, their interactions still a little strained from earlier. Tina’s voice sounded high and fraught, as if she currently held the weight of the world on her shoulders,”
“Argh …!” Tina exclaimed, moving herself away from the ensuing crowd outside Shebar, “Fucking Niki Stevens and fucking Jenny, they’re inside throwing each other around in a pit of oil, I’m so fucked,”
Bette listened intently, wondering what Tina needed her for,
“Listen Bette, I could be here a while … could you maybe go to mine and relieve the nanny?” she paused, not wanting to be a source of inconvenience, “I know it’s not your night but you can just take her back to yours if it’s easier?”
Bette nodded, “Okay … when d’you think you’ll get out of there?”
Tina sighed, “Fuck knows …” she ran her fingers through her hair, “It’s such a fucking mess Bette, the whole thing’s falling apart and Niki’s managers are going after my job …” her voice trailed off, remembering that essentially if she didn’t stop herself they were right back at square one just with the roles reversed, as she found herself working late on into the night calling Bette up to complain about the idiots at work.
“I’m sorry …” Tina answered herself, “you don’t need to be hearing all this …”
“Don’t be silly,” Bette replied, a little relieved, Jodi sat in perturbed silence around the kitchen table, still not totally sure of what went down between them the minute she came home, “I’ll go and get her,” said Bette, not confirming either way whether she’d take Angie back to hers or not,

Hello Sofa, I absolutely love your writing… you have such a lyrical style… it doesn’t feel like I’m reading it… it feels like I am singing it… each sentence adding to the tapestry of the song as it twists and turns taking you on an emotional journey like some of the best music written… each time I read your words I am taken on a lyrical journey and I thank you for that. Sincerely, JC
This was just great!!! I just want see them spend time together so badly, I thought it was so sad last week when Bette had to leave at 4am, I was shouting at my TV! Presumably she had to do the same again just there though :( I love that No Doubt song too, good choice! Can’t wait for the next installment!!!
They both feel like they are doing the same thing that broke them to beginning with. Bette get up go home and tell Jodie how you feel and Tina stay away from Bette and do the right thing for Jodie, Just stay away from each oth until Bette is free. thanks
I love this series of stories. Really great insights into how they are feeling, and the way they act on those feelings. I love the way you write, keep the stories coming!
Your snippets are so freakin fantastic and well written… i see can this playing in my mind… awesome!! :)
What can I say sofa…another most excellent snippet. You have such a beautiful way of writing them.
Wow| You so had me when Tina said, “Please Stay”. I’m so happy that it appears that IC has finally listen to us. The pain these two are going through right so is so intense and obvious. They are so in love with each other, and at the same time they both feel the guilt because of Jodi. Bette totally needs to end things with her if she really wants to be with Tina. Wants to be, yeah right like Duh. I’m telling you,I don’t want the season to be over, but I so want Sunday to hurry up and come so we can see the next episode. Love this story and your writing. You got them down perfectly.
just love it……….
My favourite line in this story: “(Bette was)…addicted to the fact that Tina’s smile made her instantaneously happy and she wanted it all the time.” That, my dear, is the true definition of love, isn’t it?
This story is just so incredible I wish it would happen on the show
hey cute stuff, did i miss this one? i know i had a good excuse, but still, i’m gonna have to try harder to keep up with you;) i’ll comment tomorrow lovely lady xo
awwwwwww baby, you take away the dystopia and make the world seem beautiful again;) seriously, i was so touched by this chapter, the little things that you describe and the big things and all the things in between and the meanings and connections inherent to it all…so beautiful, sweety, seriously, wow! i was gonna say, i got a bit confused about what i had missed in your writing, but i caught the valentine’s story completely before i left town, and thought i should add–before you, i didn’t do valentines and i didn’t do tibette, and now, hey, you’ve made me swoon over both. xoxo
Hey Sofa! Haven’t gotten to comment on your story for awhile and wanted to tell you how much I love this. If Tina is all Bette thinks about when she is away from her, and Tina’s smile makes her instantaneously happy and she wants it all the time, what’s left to figure out? She is hurting Jodi worse by prolonging the inevitable. Will you continue this story now that the season is over? I wish you would. I love this story and your writing style is amazing. Thank you so much.
You have such an incredible way to tell a story! Your description of the scenes are so heartfelt. You bare B&T’s souls and feelings. Thanks for this marvellous update. You made our Tibettes’ hearts rejoice. Sincerely, Lucero & Marsha – From Mexico City
wonderfully written…absolutely devastatingly sad…
So beautiful. Love this installments. I feel really sad too during that scene. JB’s acting was really powerful that I could feel her pain.
I love your writing!
Damn, you’re good, sofa. The situation is heartbreaking, but I think it’ll resolve itself and I have every hope it won’t all end in tears. thanks for the lovely post.
Beautiful and sad! I hope that Bette can stop playing Jodi and then Tina in her mind and just go for the person who has her heart. You write so beautifully!
Oh man, this is sad but yet a good sign for Bette and Tina. It has to hurt Bette knowing that she is cheating but yet also knowing that she is with the only woman who can make her heart skip beats and heat up her senses.
love your writing and hope to enjoy more soon.
What an amazing chapter. So perfect in its sadness, longing, desire. Thank you! Hope to see you continue this story.
That was awesome and beautiful. Bette need to break up with jodi and work thing out with Tina. Please post more, thanks!
they needed to just go dump whoever stood in their way of being together, get back together fully, tina leave her apartment, move back home in their home, and be a happy family freak im sick of the crap, it’s not that hard. but shit this was hotter than last chapter
