You’re my home – chapter 33
You’re my home
Chapter 33
Bette loaded one wet pile of washing into the drier and put a second pile of clothes into the washing machine. When she was happy that everything was right she set both machines off running and strolled back through to the sitting room. A ten day holiday with a 3 year old did generate a fair bit of dirty clothes and the washing machine had been running none stop since they had arrived home just after lunch time. It was now 9pm and the house was silent
Tina was lying on the sofa asleep – the TV was playing in the background. Bette took the remote and switched it off. She sat down and sighed – she was tired but happy. Finally with Tina dozing and Angelica fast asleep she had time to reflect on their first family holiday. It had been a total success – everyone had had a ball and they were now home a much closer unit. That meant so much to Bette – she thought about their holiday. It hadn’t started well – Angie had hating the flight out – she had been too hyper and worn both of them out. It had been a inauspicious start but their maturity had helped them work together to pacify their daughter and gradually she had settled down. Oddly on the flight home she had been an angel despite her disappointment that the holiday was coming to an end.
But the holiday had picked up – the hotel that Tina had picked was perfect – very child friendly and the food was excellent. Bette smiled at her own private memory of the holiday – something that wasn’t shown in the numerous photographs they had all taken. What Bette would always remember – apart from Angie’s pure childish joy at the whole experience was how Tina and her had connected when their daughter was in bed. They had stayed in their apartment and talked while sitting on the balcony watching the sun setting. Bette couldn’t remember how most of the conversations had started but they had talked about so many topics – discussions about politics were interspersed with silly chats about movies and cartoons.
Bette lent forward and kissed Tina – the blonde stirred but did not wake. Bette got up and sat on the floor beside the sofa so she could watch the woman she loved so much. Tina moved a little and sighed as she slept on. Almost despite herself Bette reached out a hand and touched her partner’s face. She was relieved that the touch had not woken her – it gave her more time to just look at Tina and revel in the love that she knew was become solid.

Uh-oh. Probable trouble in paradise? Have you been reading the spoilers for season 6, Ally? I honestly don’t want them to go down the tempting with disaster (affair), jealousy route anymore. Lord knows IC and company have made them go through the bowels of hell for the consequences of that carpenter fiasco many years ago. I’ve had enough of the betrayal and cheating in all their color, shape and form in the show. But this is your fan fic and I’m only your humble reader, so I’d follow this twist and see where you plan to take this. Thank you, Ally!!! :>
Not good, oh no. Trouble is one the way. I hope Tina stays strong. Please let them get over this, that their love is strong and B&T Forver. PPS
i would never go back to my first ‘love’, it was a boy. thx
I smell troubles ahead….but atleast Bette talked to Tina about it.
i give bette credit for telling tina, but poor tina she doesn’t need to deal with drama, i hope they stay strong!! :)PPS
Oh Mercy, I get over the shock in one story and here comes another. They do not need this kind of problem in their lives. And for Bette to say she never got over her. What the hell is wrong with Bette? You don’t say that to your wife or anyone else living. You silently whisper that to the dead in a very deserted cemetery. What next. PPS
I’m giving Bette credit here for showing Tina the e-mail and discussing it with her, the old Bette would not have. I am not worried about Bette starting an affair wiht Jane, you do get over first love’s. Besides, Tina would so take her out. But, then again, why tempt fate. Bette has a good job, she likes it, Phyllis is cool, and she doesn’t have all the additional pressure. This new job with more money, more everything, would include more pressure, and probably more of Bette’s time. Bette say thanks for the consideration but I’m quite happy where I am.
Ally, you’re a naughty girl.
WOW! I have to give it to Bette for sharing with Tina, but those were some powerful words spoken!
You left us there??!! Great all around chapter!
Bette can taste the seduction. PPS.
oh lord…could “jane” be another word for monkey wrench? more please.
Oh no drama coming. Hope Bette will think carefuly before making decision. Please post more, thanks!
That doesn;t sound so good! How could you leave us hangin’ there?? PPS:)
Oh oh! Many years have passed though, things change, people change, the ideals of yester years would be different than current ideals, priorities etc….yes? More challenges for these two ladies?? Bring it on! Please post soon!
I agree with everything mightymouse said,let’s not put the temptation there for Bette. As B said money is not everything, Bette and Tina’s relationship is however. I too am tired of the drama. Please allow them be the core of the group and when the drama happens it is eternal, not affecting their relationship. Kudos for Bette being honest to Tina.
Hey AllyE, Many thanks for another wonderful piece of writing. I have just caught up with the last two chapter. And wow! Loved how Bette and Shane shared a moment. Bette really knows how to tell it to Shane how it is. And Shane respects Bette’s opinion. I sdo hope some of this information sunk in and Shane begins to piece together her life again. Shane does need to sort things out with Jenny and Nikki. Yes, follow your heart not your libido. The Bette and Tina talk was splendid. You manage to convey the intimacy between these lovers. Even the mundane moments are magical when Bette and Tina are together. I love how their holiday only cemented the changes in their relationship. Tina is more settled in her job and therefore more able to demonstrate her autonomy. While Bette has learnt to relax a little and not take the world on her shoulders. Their relationship is equal and there will be times when one is mmore able to cope than the other so let them. The job offer from Jane is intriguing in terms of giving the family financial security and Bette a sense of control. But at what price… Only you words and imagination will tell. Please continue soon. Much appreciation from Your Loyal Fan.
I have faith in you Ally..give us a little drama and please make it right. pps
I know that this is the way you wanna run Season 6 so you will never do stupid thinks. But that change will put Bette into the same position at CAC to much pressure and we all know how Bette act then.Thanks for that update ally and PPS i bet you put some drama to us in the next weeks ;)
Oh no another Tibette challenge! This is where Bette’s changes will truly be put to the test….and Tina’s. I can’t wait to see what you do with this Ally. Excellent update as usual!
whoah thats one hell of a cliffy; guess bette won’t be taking that job! pps
