A Part of Me
Chapter 30
2 years later…
The throbbing inside her head woke her, blinking twice she looked at her surroundings and thanked god she was at her place, she realized by the hand that rested on her waist she wasn’t alone.
“Shit” Bette said to herself
She turned her head and looked at the blond laying beside her, as memories from last night came to mind, the drinking, the dancing, and Alice yelling at her telling her to grow up.
This had been Bette’s life for the last couple of years, working long hours only to go home exhausted often falling asleep in her cloths or falling asleep in the office. All of her hard work and dedication had paid off she had become a huge success she was very well known in the art world, she was often praised for her daring and ground breaking shows, often taking a chance on small not so well known progressive artist, that many have now become famous only because of her.
Her next show ‘Provocations’ promised to be the best, it was by far the most daring show she had ever signed, already the talk of the town, the news media and religious rightwing protesters all adding to the hype surrounding Bette Porter and the Whitney, some of the board members were against the show, if it hadn’t been for Peggy Peabody’s influence they would have surely gave in to the protesters and agreed to cancel the show.
Donations to the museum were up, and therefore Bette’s bonuses were bigger as far as her career went she was at the top of her game, everything she had ever wanted in her career she had got, even Melvin who wasn’t one not to show emotion had told her how proud he was of her even going as far as to show up to one of her shows which was a first
And this, this is what had become her personal life too much drinking and one night stands she wasn’t proud but it was what got her through the lonely nights lots of booze and lots of sex. Just sex nothing more. After Tina the longest relationship she had lasted only a couple of months and that had ended bad when the artist she was dating professed her love to Bette, and Bette in return had said nothing, what was Bette supposed to do lie to her? So she had told her the truth that she liked spending time with her that she liked her very much and a future with her was just not possible, and well it hadn’t gone well to say the least, from that day forward Bette swore she would never date spoilt temperamental artists.

Bette! What on earth are you doing sleeping around? I hope someone else comes in and takes care of Tina as she works herself so hard. Maybe Bette needs to see Tina with someone else to feel and understand the pain Tina had to go through…and hopefully to want to fight for her gal again. Can u please post soon as i can’t wait to know what is going to happen next?
Poor Tina. Bette seems to still love Tina but I wouldn’t blame Tina if Tina can’t trust anyone else to love her again – seeing Bette with her many flings would just convince her even more that Bette didn’t truly love her enough to stay faithful or that she (tina) isn’t worth Bette’s time since Bette didn’t come back for her. Is Tina not worth Bette trying harder? Bette, wake up and do something! At least Tina is still single, healthy. Hope Bette believes that she CAN still make her Tina happy.
Oh this is going to be painful isn’t it? Two years?! If they would just sit down face to face instead these two would be unstoppable! Please fix this soon ILM!!!!
WOW….two years?! That’s pitiful on Bette’s part! PPS
Geez, Bette the ever horn dog. Don’t get me wrong I’m a big TiBette person, but sometimes I just think our Tina is too good for her. Love the story. pps
wow 2 years already and now time to get back together!
Two years, huh? Bette’s personal life is a predictable failure, with meaningless sex ruling her nights. Pity. Both her and Tina’s careers are going great, though. Seems they have no one to share that success with, seeing as they haven’t bothered to keep in touch with each other at all, but are keeping track of how the other’s professional life is going. Neither seem to have grown in their time apart, though. So, maybe their continued separation is for the best, especially if nothing’s changed? thanks for posting, muzic.
so sad-so pointless for both of them-very pigheaded much??? Plz fix this soon. pps
dammmmmmmmmm… two fucking years lost… where the hell is bette’s head… i hope you can fix this…
Two yrs. is rather harsh, although Tina did ask Bette not to contact her. Tina dumped her in an email so Bette has honored her request. They both have rocks in their heads for sticking to this request. I would have thoought that Alice or Kit would have tried to get Bette to go and talk to Tina even if she asked her not to do so. Maybe someone will let them know what the other is really doing and not just reading about each other in the papers. Great chapter. Thanks for posting .
I think the time apart is good for them. Even if Bette did not mess up, they may have taken a break anyway because they are both so driven in their careers. Obviously, their hearts are still open to one another. Is Shane going to do PR for Bette? hmmmm. I love this story. Please get them together soon!
This is breaking my heart. Two years?! Damn that’s long! Thanks for the post!
Nice twist. Let’s see if they will both be smart and grown up enough to pursue the only relationship that would put in proportion their lives and make their achievments worthwhile.
two years?? That is heart breaking! Bette needs to go and win her back ASAP!! PPS! Great story!
Two years? man?? What is wrong with them??? Choose to be apart and unhappy????? I mean, are they real???? Two years lost, I really can’t believe this.Bette is the one who fucked it up so she should be the one fixing it. Please, make Bette wakes up and stop her one night stand. She needs to concentrate on getting Tina’s back now please. PPVS
Ugh I really love this story buuuuut you are killing me. Really Bette?!?!?? Two years no communication because she wrote am email she obvs didn’t mean. Really?!? Great story by the way
