Reasons Pt. 4 (Finality)
I sit at my desk, desperately trying to get work done, but my thoughts are nowhere near work. All I can think about those four little words: “I love you too.” I had known it was true for a while, but something was different about having the words out there. They weren’t just these unidentifiable feelings anymore; those feelings had a name: love. I loved this woman, but I shouldn’t. I knew it wasn’t right, but I felt like it was out of my control. It was indecent, but it didn’t feel wrong. Did Arise need to know? Could I really continue to have them both? I’ve got to talk to Bette.
I take out my phone and send a text to Bette.
“Are you in your office? I need to talk to you.”
A moment later, my phone buzzes. A text from Bette.
“Yeah. I need to talk to you too. Come by.” I sigh, dreading what this conversation would be like. I didn’t even know what I wanted to say. I needed to see her. I needed to confirm her love. I needed to figure out what to do. I walk to her office and knock.
“Come in,” she says tiredly. I can tell something’s wrong. Her eyes show evidence of stress. I take a seat on the edge of her desk.
“What’s wrong?” I ask, turning her head to face me.
“This fucking movie is killing me!”
“Yesterday, you told me it was going fine. What happened?”
“I got an email with budget revisions this morning. I’ve lost a ¼ of the budget which means that I have to find a way to lower production costs, and you know what that means.”
“Lay-offs.”
“Yep.” She puts her face in her hands and sighs loudly. “And Christmas is less than a month away. How can I fire someone that close to the holidays?!” Her stress and anguish are straining her voice.
“Should I be worried?”
“No. None of the executives are gonna get cut. Just a couple of the makeup artists, production assistants, and a hair stylist. About 6 people total. This is the part of this damn job that I hate. Once I fire them, I have to rework all my figures to make sure my reports match their budget THEN if that wasn’t enough, I’ll be trapped in meetings all day tomorrow. I’ll be lucky to make it home by fucking midnight.”

Another festivus miracle so soon…
I think you did a great job with this story and chapter. Cheating sucks but it happens a lot and when it does happen, it means there is something missing from the relationship when one or both of the partners cheat with someone else. My ex cheated one me and it really hurt but it started discussions that need to happen and probably helped us end our relationship sooner than anticipated but we were both unhappy so in the end, it was for the best. It’s too bad you’re not adding an epilogue about B&T but I understand why. Keep the stories coming.
Great story. Just want you to know if you did decide to continue it or make a sequel I would not be opposed to reading again. Looking forward to more stories from you.
And scene. Lights, dancers and back up singers.First I was afraid I was petrifiedKept thinking I could never live without you by my side But I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong I grew strong I learned how to carry on and so you’re back from outer space I just walked in to find you herewith that sad look upon your faceI should have changed my stupid lockI should have made you leave your keyIf I had known for just one secondyou’d be back to bother meSing it Arise!Go on now go walk out the door just turn around now ’cause you’re not welcome anymore weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye you think I’d crumble you think I’d lay down and die Oh no, not I, I will survive as long as i know how to loveI know I will stay alive I’ve got all my life to live I’ve got all my love to give and I’ll survive I will surviveby Gloria GaynorThanks for the awesome post.
What an excellent update and great story. It was so sad and heart breaking. Sigh! Thank you for this story.
I’m glad they had that talk and not a fucked up session of angry sex (think S1).NC-17s it is then babe. I’ve been spending much of my time @carnalnation so, I have a few ideas for a few more :D
OMG, in my wildest dreams I never would have imagined this scenario. The wife wanted to have an affair for payback but it backfired on her in the end. She used Sarah for her own ends and now she has no one. As geekygal said, for someone to engage in an affair something is missing already from their relationship. Tina does have Bette and their love. Now they don’t have to hide any longer, they can be open and honest about their relationship. AFter all it is Bette and Tina and they are destined to be together, no matter what. I must read this again for clarity. I certainly hope you will reconsider and come back to us with another 1 or 2 chapters or at least an epilogue. Thanks for sharing this story with us.

Wow, that was really hard to read because it was so sad. I feel sorry for Arise. It would have been better if she had confronted Tina, especially when she realized that Tina had fallen in love with Bette. As much as I want to see Bette and Tina together the fact that their relationship started with Tina cheating doesn’t bode well. Thanks for this great story.
WOW you write a good story. True to life, so many lives. Good, Good, Good.
Powerful writing and highly entertaining. Dramatic turn of event, which is good because predictable storyline is boring. You ended the story well. Hope to read more of your writing soon.
YEA, cheating sux no matter who does it and why they tell themselves they’re doing…i had a gf who justified it by saying she had ‘feelings’ for the woman-as if she couldn’t control them or herself…a month or so later she came back to say she’d made the biggest mistake of her life and would i wait for her to grow up!!! That woman was the biggest mistake of my life!!! thx for this great story.
That was simply amazing! That was a masterful piece of writing! You said a little sex, drama…rollercoaster ride and you delivered. BTW My ‘berry will never be the same! ALL YOUR FAULT. LMAO!
I agree also I love Bette and Tina together but im not sure if them together like this is the right way to go about it, when they tell their story if will always be a reminder of how unfaithful Tina was and how wrong they both were, it will also cause strings in the relationship as they progress because neither will be able to completely trust the other, knowing both are capable of cheating
