(Bette’s point of view)
"I really loved being there with you," Bette started. "I loved it more than you can imagine."
I loved it more than even I could have imagined. I am so thankful Tina has made the decision to let me be a part of this baby’s life. And by extension, to be part of her life again. We’re finding our way.
"Come here," Tina said, as she put the bottle of Pellegrino down on the countertop.
I felt myself flinch slightly in response to the phrase that had always meant something more than it obviously means this time. I set down the carton of soy milk, close the fridge and walk the few steps over to where Tina stands to accept me in an embrace. We’re making progress towards the new kind of partnership we had spoken of, but this is too close to what I truly want again. I can’t resist saying what’s on my mind right now.
"You feel so good," Bette said quietly.
She does feel so good. This feels right and normal and the way it should be. We should be affectionate and happy and sharing the joy of the impending birth of our daughter. Instead, I’m wallowing in the guilt of the pain I have caused her and awash in the sorrow of her being with someone else. But right now, while we hug, I can forget all that, if only for a moment.
"You smell good," Tina replied, after only a brief pause.
My eyes open wide upon hearing her say these words. The very first time she said that to me was just before the first time she made love with me. She must know the memories elicited by that phrase. I know how it makes me feel to hear her say it. Well. No I can’t really pinpoint exactly how it makes me feel – so many thoughts battle for attention. It makes me long for her physically and emotionally. It makes me sad that I can’t have her in either way. Yet I also feel hopeful. Dare I feel hopeful? We are having this baby together. I do get to be part of her life again.

Just as good this time around. Thanks for the additions and the repost. Cheers, jks. :)
Yup…just as good as I remembered…thanks for the repost. Now I want re-read your stories again.
I really don’t pay much attention to punctuation, grammar and all that because I am more taken by the story. I know they are important in conveying a thought but seriously, I get it. Thank you for the repost 🐠
Great re-post!!! Thank you
Thank you as that scene was most enjoyable to watch again and hear the music of Heart in my head. I love Merlion’s comment about the connection between all three of them in that moment.
Whoa! I’m thrilled you are back ~ I’m saving your other new story for a rainy day when I can curl up and read the whole thing at once, but today I saw this one and couldn’t resist…Great work.
Enjoyed it
Woah…!! Thanks for posting this JKS… Such a beautiful writing on the sweet moment between our favorite ladies! In the hindsight, I am glad that they have this scene. Well, not because how saucy it was 😉 but it also the time where they reconnected all together with Angelica. I believe that baby do understands whatever surrounding their mother and whatever their mother feels during their period of staying inside the womb, so I believe that Angelica would feel the connections between her moms since then too. OMGoodness it’s FF I know! But you know… 😜 hehe..
Amazing as always.I love your stories.Thank you.Please continue writing.
