“Ok, I know we are doing ok alone, but I think we need to talk this all out. When you left me standing in the hall, I was confused. I wanted to hug you good-bye. I thought that was huge progress for us.”
“Oh, I agree. We need to keep Geli’s best interests in mind, no matter what you or I want.”
“Yeah, then I wanted to kiss you.” Tina blurted this part out. She was not sure if she would regret it or not.
“Oh…Tina, friends kiss. We are friends, right? We are the mothers of a beautiful little creation that would have never been if not for the idea we both agreed on. We should definitely consider each other friends.” Bette was speaking from her heart about Geli, but she did not want to jump into another reconciliation with Tina to have it turn out the same way again.
“Friends,” Tina agreed. She felt the joy dissipate from her body. She thought she and Bette…what did she think? Friends was a good start. “Ok. I will go now. It’s late. Talk to you later?”
“You bet.” Bette was confused and cautious. If Tina wanted to try and work things out, why was she not telling her? What was she getting at? Why was it so hard for them to talk? They never said what they meant and communication was never their strong point.
As she walked Tina to the door, she reached for her wrist. “Tina?”
“Umm?” Tina turned to look at Bette as she bit her bottom lip. Tears were welling up in her eyes.
“Baby, don’t cry.” Bette reached up with one hand and wiped the tear off Tina’s cheek. “I am just so scared of things not going the way I want them to. I don’t want Geli to bounce from house to house week after week, but I need to be careful about this.” Bette tried to explain as Tina agreed and nodded her head in agreement.
“I came over to tell you that I felt something when we hugged and I’m not so sure it was just friendship. I thought you should know how I am feeling. We never talked a lot before and I want it to be different now.” Tina held both of Bette’s hands in hers and stood closer.
“T, you know how I feel about you.” Bette bent down and kissed Tina’s salty lips softly. They lingered in the kiss and both knew what the other wanted. Bette sighed and looked at Tina still had her eyes closed.
“That was really nice.” Tina smiled and moved closer to Bette.
Angelica stirred and began to cry.

Anyone with half a brain could tell Tina was feeling more than just friendship feelings when she and Bette hugged in the season finale. Now why is it Tina has to be the stereotypical blond and be a total flake? Granted if this had happened they’d still have to work through the sole custody issue but we’ll pretend for the time being that that part didn’t happen. ;)
Thank you! Watching these two women not talk to each other is the most frustrating thing!!
if only it ended like that… it may have made season 3 a little easier to watch… i hope you continue… and if you do… please don’t let tina go back to her room with henry… or at least let her tell him to get another room… they are through… over, done… ok … i guess i am also done
Much better. Is there more, cause I really hope so! Like the direction you took; plausible and pleasing, righting wrongs as you go. Thanks!
I agree w/Seahurst’s comment. During S3, I often found myself shouting at the TV telling them to talk to each other. They would flip harsh remarks at one another and then it cut to a new scene. No closure with ideas or convos. Very frustrating for the viewer. Who acts like that in real life?
i hope angie won’t interrupt their talk and little reconnection…post soon and say goodbye to henry
Seeing them in S3 was a blow to the stomach every time. This is better thanks
“baby, don’t cry” *melts*
This sounds really interesting – keep writing!
Lamentamini, I, on the other hand, thought it was a done deal when Tina gave Bette that hug in the hotel hallway. I saw regret and remembrance (of S2-ep 9) on Bette’s part (and the lingering hope for a replay. On Tina’s face I saw nothing but resolve. She has moved on. She told Henry doesn’t want Bette to be on the floor for the next two years, and I think that scene was a display of those feelings. Tough, but…anyway, thanks Jspen for spinning it another way. Wistfully and wishfully yours, TG.
that was too short….I am in total agreement with Lamentamini on this one. I can’t wait for your next chapter.
I agree with Lamentamini (we seem to be agreeing a lot lately) about the hug and the connection that will always be there for them. It upsets me that so many people hate Tina so much. Am I happy at the way she treated Bette, hell no. But and I know it is a big But, the real Tina would never had done this to Bette. The writers for some reason took it upon themselves to turn her into some evil villian. Instead of showing the battle that goes on in some people’s head, they just had her jump into bed with any one that had three legs. Maybe I am dreaming but Tina maybe coming to her senses and she is going to have to work doubly hard to show Bette that she can be trusted agin. Will the real L WORD please Stand Up.
Good chapter. Bette and Tina need to get back together!
Season 3 will always be one of the worst seasons to watch..even though bette and tina not getting back together was hard but Dana dying took the cake and I cant still get myself to watch it
