Bette smiled. “Of course.”
“I’ve always wondered why you left after we made love. It was one of the most beautiful times I ever shared with you.”
“You wanted me to stay?” Bette was surprised.
“I never wanted anything more in that moment.”
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Tina shot her a quick glare. “Why didn’t you tell me that you needed to be loved today? You know how I feel about you.”
“Pride” Bette quickly answered. “Fear, guilt…” she continued.
“Fear and guilt?”
“We have come to a good place Tina. I don’t want to mess that up. I couldn’t lose you again.” Bette admitted. “I’m not sure that I can take one more loss right now. It’s taken all I have with your help to deal as it is.”
“And the guilt?”
“I chose Rosanna.”
The answer was simple and complex all at the same time.
“Bette is it possible to just live in the moment for now? Can we just be with each other and let the answers come over time?”
Bette started to tremble. She could barely put her bottle of water on the table the tears blinded her. Tina quickly closed the space that separated them. “Easy babe.” She murmured and held her close. “What just happened?” Tina was thoroughly confused.
“Rosanna used to say that to me when we first got together. ‘Live for the moment or all we ever have is now.’”
Tina suddenly understood. “She was a very smart woman.”
“Yeah” Bette answered. Tina sighed there were mines everywhere it seemed. She loved the feel of Bette in her arms. She would walk through fire to keep her there.
“Time for bed, it’s been a long day.” Tina rose and helped Bette up.
“Will you stay with me tonight?” Bette asked shy again.
“Here?” Tina felt Rosanna’s presence strongly.
“Yes, right where I expected to find you when I woke up this afternoon.” Bette grumbled, still irritated by the memory, missing Tina’s discomfort.
Tina’s heart leapt “You missed me?”
“Terribly” Bette confessed and they both knew that she was not just talking about this afternoon.
I look in your eyes and I can see
We’ve loved so dangerously
And you’re not trusting your heart to anyone
You tell me you’re gonna play it smart
we’re through before we start
I believe that we’ve only just begun
When it’s this good, there’s no saying no
I want you so, I’m ready to go
Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall
For a chance to be with you
I’d gladly risk it all
Through the fire
Through whatever, come what may
For a chance at loving you
I’d take it all the way
Right down to the wire
Even through the fire
I know you’re afraid of what you feel
You still need time to heal
And I can help if you’ll only let me try
You touch me and something in me knew
What I could have with you
I’m not ready to kiss that dream goodbye
When it’s this sweet, there’s no saying no
I want you so, I’m ready to go
Even through the fire
Even through the fire…
Chaka Khan, Through the Fire

Truly look forward to this story! By far one of my favorites right now!! More please!! :)
wow…tough talking…mmmm…brilliant writing…
Tina’s honesty blows me away. Tough conversations, but these two are doing great. I wondered how Tina would react to Bette choosing Ro over her if the opportunity to get back with Bette ever came up. I’m glad her love for Bette overpowers any other doubts that they belong together. Love the song. So do I get a new request, since you already had this one in mind (lol).
I love this but it was too short. I love them together in this story. Wonderful writing. PPS.
Go with the flow…so good to read…thank you.
OMG, you can’t end their conversation there…I need more talking, pls…go back and write some more….pls
I find myself holding my breath and scrolling very slowly, savoring every word. Superb.
Great writing..such tenderness
Excellent.
Love how this story is developing! Looking forward to how it will enfold…please post soon! Thank you!
Great Chappie K! This story has really grown on me. Definitely one of my favs!!PPS
Good chapter. Talk good and keep them talking and work thing out!
Through the fire, to the limit, through what-eveerrrrrr…..Chaka Khan, I feel for you. Kelika, I feel for you, too! Thanks!!!
WOW! You are makingf me fall for Tina and Bette all over again, passionate, strong, sensual, sensitive, fragile, funny, the list go on… The only critique I could suggest for your writing is that you don’r give your readers enough of it.
This is a BEAUTIFUL story, just love it:) PLEASE PS. Thanks
Thanks for the fast post. Love these 2. PPS!!
Hoping you would have another chapter up today, love this story.Love the way you have them getting together, slowly but surely. Bette can not ignore Tina’s and vice versa, they still love and care very deeply for one another and they should get back together. I suppose when the baby is born they will acknowledge their ever present love and the fact that they can not live apart any longer. Great chapter. PPS
Wonderful and so full of love!!!!! Thank you so much. PPVS
That was not enough. Talking is good, but after feel the love and let it flow.
Love this story. It has a very raw passionate feel to it and very sensual also. It’s so good to see them being open,and honest about their feelings,something they have never been very good at doing. They are working their way back to each other w/out even realizing it. What a slow burn you have working. PPS
