Walking After You ch. 14
After the strenuous morning excertions, Tina was feeling extremely hungry. However, all she saw in the cupboards was one multi-grain biscuit and several sodas. Toweling her hair dry, she pulled open the refrigerator door and scowled when all she saw there were several bottles of water and one shriveled apple.
"Baby, we really should go grocery shopping soon." She called over her shoulder to Bette, who was still fussing with her hair in the bedroom.
"Um, yeah sure. How about right now?" Bette’s answer drifted to the kitchen.
"What did you want to talk about?" Tina yelled out as she examined the apple. Could it still be edible?
Bette frowned into the mirror, wondering if Tina had forgotten all the trouble they’ve been having lately. Still, she didn’t want to look at a gift horse in the mouth, even if said mouth were full of cavities. Bette shrugged and gave her hair a final pat-down.
She walked out into the kitchen and raised an eyebrow at the small wrinkled apple resting on a dish full of water. She looked around for Tina and didn’t see her.
"Tina?" She called out.
"Out here! In the garden!" Tina called back.
Bette walked out the back door and saw Tina staring up at a couple of trees. She approached from behind and wrapped her arms around Tina’s belly. "What are you doing out here?"
Tina kept staring up at the branches. "I’m looking for apples."
"Is that one even an apple tree?" Bette looked up and tried to remember her college Botany. The foliage looked distinctly un-appletree-like.
"I don’t know. But it looks like there’s some kind of fruit up there. Want to try to get them?"
"Wouldn’t it be easier, not to mention safer, to just drive to the grocery?"
Tina finally turned around, still in the circle of Bette’s arms, and grinned. She gave Bette’s lips a sweet kiss. "And where would be the fun in that?"
Bette laughed and released Tina. "Are you insane?"
"Suddenly, totally, yes!" Tina crowed in between giggles.
"You really want to get up in that tree just to pick some possibly inedible fruit? And what were you doing to that poor apple in the kichen?"
"Rehydrating it. And well, I guess it would be crazy to climb a tree, huh?"

pity their morning whimsy turned physically injurious – otoh, bette rendered immobile bodes well for talking :-) the love is clearly there – they don’t have any problems some real communication cant fix – & a scare like this throws priorities into relief real quick. unexpected twist & great chappy, thanks 7pm
Poor Bette and hope she will fully recover soon. Please post more, thanks!
Wow, Bette really got messed up falling out of that tree. I hope she recovers quickly. Tina is being so sweet taking care of her…
Oh Dear! What pain! Thank you for this story.
Poor girls and Tina is feeling really guilty for her involvement in the accident. Now she will do any and everything to help her love recover. Thanks.
7, I know the injury is not funny, but just picturing Bette climbing the ladder is. Those are some NASTY injuries. Bette will recover fully. Tina will eventually get over the guilt, and Bette will blame herself (as usual) for even thinking about climbing that ladder. Bette realized in earlier chapters that she has no doubt that she loves Tina; now Tina knows that she still loves Bette. They still need to talk, but I think that after what has happened to Bette, it will be easy for them to put everything on the table. I just hope that Bette tells Tina that she has been seeking professional for her problems. Fantastic update. PPS
ouch… my knee hurts just reading bette hurt hers… now we will see nurse tina.. pps
Great update! Even though they didn’t get to have the talk, I think Bette’s injuries finally opened Tina’s eyes and will be the catalyst for opening up their dialogue. PPS
i wish they would talk but this chapter was worth the wait for that talk…first part was very entertaining just imagining bette climbing that ladder…and since she’s going to fully recover, i’m okay with the second part…let nurse tina do the rest :) pps
HEY 7pm, That was so amazing. The playfullness between Bette and Tina as they hunt for food. The worry, concern and guilt that Tina was feeling after the accident wsa completely believable. Good to have the gang come rushing to the gals and trying to make Tina feel better.Then Bette and Tina snuggle up to each other was so sweet. They just fit together.Can’t wait to read more of Bette’s recovery.Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
awww poor bette. But yes, injury does bring friends and even couples closer together. Good post. Another soon Please :P
