Chapter 44
Tina and Bette walked down the stairs 20 minutes later laughing and talking in their own little world.
“Chris.…I didn’t know you were home. Why didn’t you call me?”
“Oh, Margaret…Hi, it was a surprise. I popped in on Mom and Dad this afternoon. We…I thought it would be fun.”
Tina had walked up to her sister and wrapped her arms around her.
“Surprise!”
“What’s going on Chris?”
Margaret looked at Tina with her arms folded across her chest.
“Tina, I’ll go and help your mother.”
“Okay, Bette we’ll be right in.”
“Tina, who was that?”
Tina put her arm around her sister and led her to the couch.
“Margaret that was Bette Porter, she’s my boss, and a very good friend. Just sit down for a minute, okay?’
Margaret looked at Tina with a skeptical expression.
“Chris, what’s going on? You look different. Are you sick or something?”
“No Margaret, everything is fine. As a matter of fact things are better than fine. I came home to tell Mom and Dad, and you and Tommy something.”
Margaret turned toward Tina and gave her a small smile.
“Okay, it’s either you’ve met someone or your pregnant. Spill.”
“You’re good Sis. You’re right. I’ve met someone. As a matter of fact I’m head over heels in love.”
“You are so shittin’ me, Chris you’ve only just split up like a month ago.”
Tina smiled at her sister.
“Almost 7 weeks.”
“Chris, are you sure you aren’t just on the rebound or something?”
“No Margaret, well I guess nothing is certain, but I’m totally sure. I’ve never felt anything close to this. She’s ‘the one’ Margaret.”
Margaret leaned back and looked at her sister.
“Chris, you mean he’s ‘the one’, right.”
“No Margaret, I meant she’s ‘the one’. I’m in love with a woman. Bette…the woman you just saw.”
“Shit Chris, you have got to be kidding me.”
“No Margaret, I met someone and fell in love. She just happens to be a woman and I’ve never been happier in my life.”
Margaret looked at Tina with her eyes wide.
“What about Ellie and Joe.”
“Ellie’s fine. It was a bit weird at first but everything is fine. Ellie and Bette get along great.”

So great. I’m loving this story.
Tommy reminded me of Alice. That was great. I which all families were this understanding. Great update.
I generally love the stories here, but I’ve rarely been this hooked… please post very very soon!
Aaah Tommy you’re killin’ me! So much for the “open minded” fire guy…Have I told you lately that I love this story?
What a Great Update!!!! I am glad things went well with Tina’s family. Thank you Love your story!!!! PPS
spectacular, great and awesome. Waoooo what a great family Tina’s got. I wish all families are this undestanding nd supporting. PPVS
Very well done, D&A!
thank you thank you and thank you D&A
Is there a way that I can be part of Tina’s family? I like them a lot.
Tommy’s initial reaction was pretty much what I expected, but I’m glad he came around. Why Tina is so protective of Joe, though, who knows. It’s just as well Tommy never finds out how Joe strayed repeatedly during the marriage, though. I think he’d wipe the floor with Mr J. Wilson, big time. I hope you’re back soon with another post, D&A. Thanks
Maybe someone’s family is like that. I’d like to think so
Round two was quite a round! I enjoyed that so much! Thank you.
THank you for this chapter. I loved how you managed to show that everyone (the mother, the father, the brother and the sister) reacted to the “news” in a different way but at the very end they all seem to feel comfortable with Tina’s choice.At first when I read about the reaction of the brother I was like “grr! What kind of jerk is this guy?” But I think you made him sound pretty realistic and finally this whole chapter show the love there is in Tina’s family.PPS.
I’m so glad Tina’s family was so accepting. I think it helped having Bette there so that they could all meet her and see how happy she makes Tina. She is so fortunate that her whole family had such a good reaction. Thanks for the update!
Hi D&A, Good to finally meet Tina’s brother and sister’s and how they reacted to their little sister’s news. Both were shocked by their sister’s admission that she was in love with a woman. Loved that when the saw the ‘woman’ in question a certain understanding was reached. Tommy was really in denial at first. This was only to be expected given Tina’s marriage and apparent happiness with Joe & Ellie. You have written and honest account of introducing your new love to your family. It was warm and funny. Bette and Tina in a tight clinch and steamy kisses just made my day. Sweet that Bette was accepted by the whole family. Waiting impatiently for your next addition. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
It seems that Tina should have offered another rounds of shots. You can tell that Tina is well respected by her siblings and they only want what’s best for her. It must be nice to have such a family and not the out of sync family experience that it more typical. My family would have been more concerned with what about me instead of what makes Tina happy. Good writing I love this story.
Awesome. Thank you for this story. So loving it :)
OMG I love this story
AWESOME STORY!!!!! THANK YOU!!PPS!
YAY! I love that everything went well :)
Well, thankfully that was not as difficult as it could have been for them. So glad everyone has taken Tina’s coming out with grace even if a little embarassed by their own reaction. Bette’s line to Tommy was priceless. Loved the last couple undates. Thank you for posting so quickly thru this coming out process just as you have done for the rest of the story. Love this story.
The porter charm is a motherfucker, it will destroy and amaze you..Shit!!
