A Final Dream – Chapter 9
I can’t accept that you and me is only in my dreams
I can’t leave and start again somewhere new
I can’t if it’s at a place where there’s no you”
“Oh that. Well, it’s um… like… a beginning. It just… I couldn’t sleep and I was thinking and it just popped into my mind and I had to write it down in case I forgot it and I’m explaining this way too much it’s nothing not worth anything or something… it’s not like…”
“I think it’s wonderful. I’m so curious what it will sound like when you’ve finished the song.”
“I kinda have the music to that part,” I fumble with my fingers. I get so nervous when someone seems interested in this stuff.
“Oh, could you play it to me?”
“Sure.” I can’t deny her anything. She must realise that by now. I go and take my guitar. She offers me the paper, but I dismiss it. I clear my throat and start playing, then singing.
“It’ll be a great song,” she says enthusiastically. “You should sing it to Gary when it’s done, he’ll love it, maybe we can use it.”
Auch. Gary. I didn’t want to hear that. Tina is completely oblivious to this and I tell myself that I like Gary – which I after all do.
“Tell me,” she goes on. “Is everything you write about your own feelings? About what happens in your life?”
I am quick with my answer. “Yes, I couldn’t do it any other way.”
“Weird.”
“Why?”
“Because when I look at this, and I look at your life – you know, being with Carmen and all, I don’t see the link, especially the second line.”
She looks up at me and I am lost in her beautiful hazel eyes. They are so full of emotions and expression. I could look at them forever, reading the book of her soul, reading what is going on in her mind. To my surprise, I see a hint of hope in them. A silence falls, but it’s not uncomfortable. We don’t seem to have many of those.
“It’s…” I really can’t come up with an excuse at the moment. I also cannot tell her the truth. I do love Carmen, and I don’t want to lose her friendship. She would probably tell Carmen, and I don’t want to hurt her. It’s stupid anyway. She doesn’t have to know I was thinking of her.

would someone please read between the lines. One of them needs to get some courage and kiss the other one.
I think Bette is going to hug & kiss Tina in her sleep, or her pretend sleep and Tina might actually wake up and be like oh my God I like Bette more than a friend! lol PPS
A sleepover – the ideal situation to confront denial – Bette can hardly keep her hands off Tina and they will soon be sleeping in the same room/bed. It’s so going to happen…can’t wait for the next chappie…PPS!
so fucking cute!! gosh tina is blind or something??? kiss the girl!!!
when will tina wake up about her feelings for bette. maybe after this sleepover? bette is adorable to that for tina.:)PPS
enjoying this story. Whats going to happen on the overnight stay. I think Tina is in denial.
Awww,these two girls are so cute both secretly likeing each other and wanting more than friendship. Both also not wanting to hurt the person they are with. Gary is clueless but Carmen is waiting for Shane to get jealous and make a move. I hope this night they spend together will move them closer to what they really want. I wonder what Tina’s mom will think if she and Bette get together? PPS
Not only is Tina blind she is very dense. Cant she see the love in Bette eyes and the fact that Bette is alway there for her,and does anything to please her. thanks
