“Bette?”
“Yeah, T” Bette mumbled as her wife’s voice resonated in the depths of her mind. Bette opened her eyes to find the shadows of their darkened room were the only sight to greet her “What’s wrong?” Bette asked suddenly alarmed, Tina almost never woke her in the middle of the night.
“Are you awake?” Tina asked.
“Yes” Bette yawned as she rolled over to snuggle against her wife’s warm back and wrap an arm over Tina’s waist, gently rubbing her stomach “What is it?”
“Do you still want a family?”
Bette’s hand ceased moving and her heart raced as adrenaline shot into her veins, ensuring that she was now very much awake. Her hand retreated slightly and came to rest on Tina’s hip, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself enough to find the best response to such a delicate subject. Lifting her head to look past Tina, Bette glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table.
“Baby, it’s three-fifteen in the morning, I think this conversation is best left until there’s daylight and I’ve had at least one cup of coffee”
The silence was deafening and Bette knew immediately that her response was not the one her wife was seeking.
“I’m sorry” She apologized for trying to make light of what was obviously an important topic to Tina.
“It’s a simple question, Bette” Tina said quietly, her tone gave no clues as to her emotional position “But if you can’t give me a straight answer then I guess I know where you stand”
“And where would that be?” Bette asked as an indignant tone crept into her voice despite her best efforts.
“You’re not ready, you weren’t ready then and you’re still not ready now” Tina replied.
Bette bit her lip in an effort to stop the first thought that flew into her head escaping via her mouth.
“Tina, hold on a minute” Bette said calmly as she propped herself up on one elbow and leaned over her wife’s body “You just woke me up and asked me to make a life altering decision off the top of my head. Do you really want me to answer that kind of question without any thought whatsoever?”
