A Choice is Made Chapter 2
Shane: So when you were let go from the CAC why not then?
Bette: Tina and I had just reconciled, Angelica was brought home. I was still reeling from losing Daddy. Needed to get the adoption done here in California, too many reasons to stay put. Besides it would have been like asking Tina to make a move for me, that my career was more important. I didn’t want to be that person to her anymore. However, she’s giving me all indication that our relationship has run its course. I mean how the hell do you tell your partner of 8 years that you’ve refused to be intimate with that you’re thinking of having sex with another and in her case a man? It is obvious that we are over, nothing left to salvage. The hard part is Angelica.
Tasha: I have no idea where you find the strength to do that Bette. I see the bond you two have; I just can’t imagine tearing that apart.
Bette: Well Angelica is young enough and loved enough to get over me. I also suspect that she’ll have some very doting aunts to take great care of her too. The board member reached out to me again a few months back as the Director position had become open again. I explained my personal situation and he understood, but he kept in touch. Once Tina made her feelings known and as I wrestled with my true belief that this adoption would not be successful I warmed up to the idea of Whitney and New York. Aidan called again and I explained my position. He knew he finally had a real chance. He came back with three things that made it impossible to say no:
Alice: Well you were kind of hot, even on CSPAN you were hot. You know that’s why I secretly hate you. Even being all intellectual and pissed off you are still hot.
Shane: Well, she’s hottest then.
Tasha: Hmm, the chatter at the Planet is she’s hottest as Angelica’s mommy.
Bette rolls here eyes and the girls have a good laugh.
Bette: Yea, it will be nice to start fresh; I’m looking forward to the challenge. The Whitney is an institution, at the CAC we wanted to become one.

I don’t know what to say, B&T are killing me. This hurts. Great post
thx for the shout out. tina is really lost!!! wow bring on vegas!! pps.
I agree, Tina is lost. She keeps saying things like Bette only thinks about herself, but this whole thing started because Tina is thinking about herself. They both have to find what makes them happy. Let’s hope that they discover again that it is each other. Thanks!!
Well you did it again Lwsho…that was awesome. I think that Tina is being very defensive because she doesn’t really know what she wants. She may have feelings for men, but inside she really hasn’t let Bette go and she is stunned that Bette has made this decision. She is feeling hurt that Bette could make the decision to leave her and Angelica and she doesn’t want to be the one that is responsible for pushing her into it, so instead she throws the blame onto Bette. It may not be right, but it happens in real life just like that. Bette isn’t right either…she went to the other extreme. My guess is that she will regret her decision in time of leaving her baby. I can’t wait until your next update!
Tina is a small-minded, selfish beotch.
As ever, great denial = terrific conflict and cliff hanger for your devoted readers.
My stars Sho, you’ve got me hanging from the cliff by my fingernails waiting for the cracks to splinter and drop me to my own peril. Glad that Helena told Tina what was going on and also telling Tina about how she caused Bette’s latest actions. Still Tina could not and did not hear what Helena was telling her and still she blames Bette rather than herself. They have both made a terrible mistake and I have a feeling both will pay dearly for their actions. Really hate to see them break up, they are both still in love with each other. They are destined to be together, I just hope they can find forgiveness and find their way back to each other where they belong. Angie needs them both and needs them to be together. So do we. Great update.
Tina doesn’t want to hear some home truths from even someone as non-invested as Helena. Reality will hit soon enough, both when Tina realises Bette’s *really* gone and isn’t coming back, and for Bette when she starts really missing Angie. One thing is certain, I think those two need some time apart. In the meantime, Viva Las Vegas! Thanks for the post.
Great upadate. It’s so sad to see how far apart both Bette and Tina are. And Tina seems to be suddenly on a selfish mode. Sigh!! I hope you’ll sort this out won’t you :) Thank you again!
Maybe I´m biased, but I somehow like the way this story seems to go. Tina needs to take a long hard look at herself. And if they want to save anything between them, they definitely need time apart. Great post.
This is heartbreaking {sniffling in sadness}. Just catching up on reading and happy to come across your story – very well written. Tell granny to take it easy – you’re capturing the voices of the characters and must use such ‘language’ at time for them to remain authentic…{worried now that your granny will come after me for encouraging the occassional curse word and going to hide now!}
I’m really disliking Tina right now! This whole thing started because Tina was thinking about herself and her needs, so how can she say that Bette is only thinking about herself? I think this whole thing is a defense mechanism for Tina because she doesn’t really know what she wants. In time (hopefully not too long) they will both realize pushing each other away was a mistake and find their way back to each other. Great update, even though I’m not happy with the outcome. I’ll stick with you and your wonderful writing! PPS
I’m gonna blame hormones for Tina’s behavior. I think she needs an a-ha moment and then she needs some therapy and then Bette needs an a-ha moment and some therapy too and then they need to get back together once they resolve the crap going on with themselves.
they need to talk and work thing out!
