Chapter Two Part Two
Previously…
I learn that she’s from Chapel Hill, NC and came to LA five years ago with a scholarship. She studied film at UCLA, where she met her boyfriend when she was 20. He got an offer in New York and she followed him one month ago. This is the point where she bursts out in tears.
Before I realise what I am doing, I throw my arm around her and pull her closer.
———
It’s an instinct, I can’t stop myself and even if I could, I don’t think I would have wanted to. It takes a while for her to calm down again and breathe regularly. When she finally seems to have come back to herself, I don’t bother to remove my arm as long as she doesn’t ask me to.
“I’m so sorry about that,” Tina whispers softly, her face still hidden in my thick hair. Her hot breath, the vibrations that her voice causes makes my skin crawl. I momentarily close my eyes, willing my heart to stop beating so damn fast.
“It’s okay. Is your boyfriend okay?”
“Oh, I’m sure he’s very much okay,” she replies. I frown my eyebrows as I hear some anger in her voice. She takes my hand and squeezes it – not good for my heart, but so good for the rest of me. Her thumb softly strokes my skin and I want to melt into her.
“What’s wrong then?”
“Ithinkhescheatingonme.”
“What did you say?”
“I… I think he’s cheating on me? It’s just that for the past few months, he’s been working very late, having meetings he shouldn’t even attend. He says he goes because his colleague, Steve Carter, doesn’t have the time for them. Then there’s the fact that when he is home, he receives these texts all the time and he never wants to tell me who they’re from and what’s in them. He acts so weird for the rest of the time, then. He’s also very stressed – I can’t tell the time since he last gave me a hug. Then there’s the fact that he wasn’t home last Sunday because he had to do some chores at his parents’, but when his father called me for something and I asked him if he had noticed anything strange about Eric, he said that he hadn’t seen his son in a month.”

OMG, Tina really has Bette heart hey. I hope Tina will comeback soon because Bette is her forever, even if she doesn’t know that yet. PPS
i secretly hope tina finds eric at home in bed with some random chick(or chicks, wihi) and comes running back to bette within less than one hour, pps!
Fantastic update. Bette’s already gone hook line and sinker. Thank you for this story :)
Hey Genner, What a joy it was to return to a new post from you. I just adore this adventure. Awesome to feel how close Bette and Tina are after this short time. They just trust each other completely. Shame that Tina is so insecure about her relationship with Eric that she can’t face the truth. I hope that she realizes the depth of Bette’s feelings for her and her own towards Bette. Then she will return after confronting Eric and ending their relationship. Sweet that Jack as there to comfort Bette after Tina left. How do animals sense when you need them the most. Too cute for words… almost. More please. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
