Window of Opportunity
Chapter 59
Tina
After giving her time to sleep and helping prepare dinner, I went back to wake Bette so that she would be able to sleep later. I was surprised that she wasn’t sleeping and was just laying there in what appeared to be deep thought. I didn’t want to interrupt her and was going to leave her to her thoughts when she saw me and called me over. I climbed into bed beside her and she took me into her arms.
“Tina, I need to talk to you about something if we have time before dinner.”
Mom and Kit had everything under control so I knew I wasn’t needed. I was nervous though. Everything seemed to be going well but when she calls me Tina rather than T, it usually is not a good thing. “We have time. What’s on your mind Babe?”
“I’ve never been this happy before in my life. I have you and Angie and now Sam, Catherine, Luke and David in my life as real family. I’m scared though T.”
“What are you scared of?”
“I love Kit, the girls and James. You know that they’ve been the only real family besides you and Angie that I’ve ever really had. I love this new family that we’ve added. Are you sure that you totally forgive me and that you and I getting married is really what you want?”
I pulled away from her and sat up. She sat up too facing me. I wasn’t sure where all this was coming from but if she was scared enough to open up to me and talk, I wanted to ensure that I understood her fears and answered her completely.
“Baby, what’s going on? Yes, I’ve forgiven you. I have no doubts in my mind. I do want to marry you not only because I feel that we are already united in such a strong way but because I could never love anyone as much as I love you. Bette, I need to know if you are having doubts.” I was looking directly into her eyes and saw the tears already beginning to form. I was scared that she had come to the realization that this is not what she wanted. I was not what she wanted and I felt panic beginning to set in. I could not envision my life without Bette in it. I had done that before and never wanted to experience that again.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoy this story. I went back and read it from the beginning and it is so well written and thought-out. I feel that you characterize everyone so well, both the cannon and original characters. Any update always puts a smile on my face.
ok, very ignorant here but really want to know what is grits and what are the biscuits? what r they made from? fish is easy, Lol.yes, teething babies can be a trial but my sympathy is with the baby. Kisses to baby G.Love the story & agree with your conclusion about the ‘lack’ in the girlz lives.Looking 4 ward to next chapter.
Nag, back in NY we have this liquid called Gripe water, it’s for babies with teathing and other qripes, I gave to all my kids and learned of it from another mother, I don’t know where else they sell it as I have mailed it all over the country for relitives. If you want some let me know. Going to read now and will comment when done. Md
Bette really needs to be less afriad of Daddy and getting caught…she is an adult after all, but it’s still cute and funny! and more alone time…what shall our girls do? Love this story:) PPS
I like it when Bette and Tina’s insecurities and fears resurface every now and then. It makes them both very human and their relationship very real. Not everything in their life is picture perfect but they have learned to talk and confide to each other. And that’s the important thing I guess. So the walking wet dream is no longer a drive in theater virgin! She even screamed out her successful initiation to the entire lot! ROFL! I love how Tina put her plan into action, down to the last detail. And I swear these North Carolina chapters are getting yummier with each update. I want a huge serving of that chicken and dumpling and strawberry shortcake too! *Slurp* Thanks for the heads up on grits, cpq. I think I’ll have some of those too. I still wonder if Tina will bump into one of her ex-boyfriends. Anyway, this is another brilliant chapter in a lovely, captivating story. Such a pleasure to read as always. *Thank you,* newagegirl! PPS :)
Great story. I just wanted to say I love it especially the drive in. I remember checking out the internet for grits and the biscuits when I went to NC myself. So I know what Bette was thinking. I can’t wait for the next post.
This chapter was absolutely wonderful and very funny in parts. Bette “wolfing down” calories, the drive-in scene and them returning back to the house after, the convrsation with Tina’s Dad about Bette being insecure around him regarding their intimate times. I understand Bette, I would have those ssme feelings. It was Hilarious and very thoroughly enjoyed. Feel free to use anything I might say. It is a pleasure for me to think that you would want to use something of mine in your story. Thank you very much. Hugs and kisses to the little guy. Post when you can.
An amazing story of love and acceptance. As I was reading this chapter I was thinking about how Sam and Catherine played different but important roles for each of the girls – how they were filling voids, and then along comes the last paragraph… “What I hadn’t realized when the reunification with my parents began was that they would fill the void in all our lives.” Just amazing. If only we could all have a Sam and Catherine.
NAG, this update was nothing short of genious! I couldn’t stop laughing all the way through it (the drive-in, Tina’s Dad talking about Alice and Shane, the grits at breakfast). You are a very skilled writer that should probably be writing more than fan fics, but I’m sure glad you are writing this one. I swear I’m going to cry when it ends!
Kove that Timas parents are taking al the strays for LA into their family. To wake up one morning and have six new family members and to share the love that they have for each other Thanks for post such a wonderful story
I think that this comes very close to a perfect b&t chapter and story for that matter. Emotional drama, sex and the silly gang – just perfect.PPS
Okay Rau here’s a little help. Grits is corn based, in fact it is basically coasely ground corn that is mainly associated with and served in the Southern parts of the US. They are eaten with a conbination of other items for breaksfast like cheese and eggs, bacon, sausage, etc. It’s funny that NAG wrote that Tina’s dad added sugar to his because when my mom had to work, my dad would add sugar to our grits to get us to eat all of our breakfast. Little did he know that we would eat them anyway. Sugar will make the grits more liquid or “runny” as we would say. Grits “stick to your ribs” and are quit fillings and therefore stay with you as you go through the morning. Biscuits are made from flour and are a bread and they taste like biscuits. The closest thing to taste to them are schoundes.Great chapter NAG, I love how Angie is bonding so well with her grandparents. PPS :o).
This was an amazing chapter. It showed the true Bette and Tina relationship (the one that I wished the show would have portrayed). Tina is right in that Tina’s parents have now become the parents of all. Bette is funny in her thinking of not having adult alone time in the house and anywhere eles that the perents are around. Summer is on it’s way, Yippeee
Fantastic chapter!!! (Just getting caught up again) Heheh…love grits…yummy! Thought Bette asking what one wears to the drive-in was absolutely hysterical! Thanks, nag! :)
The conversation with bette and tina was wonderful to see bette opening up and for tina to keep encouraging her to do so big step for both! the conversation with mom and tina was great loved how mom has adopted the others as family awesome… the very best was bette’s asking about what to wear to the drive in, and how to eat breakfast,lol…freaking awesome update :)PPS
James, Oh James, James left with the guys and never came back. NAG I love the way you brought both families together and Tina’s parents are becoming such good friends with the girls, Tina, Angie and Bette, I see a great big happy family. It is so funny to see you bring all the food items into this. Even funnier for me, you know why. Lovin it, Thank you, Md
