A Lifetime – c 7
“Oh, fuck,” frowned Tina. “Alice called you didn’t she?”
Bette looked at her feet and squirmed momentarily.
“Bette.”
“OK, Al called me. She said you were irritable and stuffing your face with sweets.”
Because of Alice’s call, Bette knew that when she got home, she had to be alert to Tina’s mood. Immediately she saw that Tina was forgetful, irritable, impulsive. She was stuffing herself with sugar, complained about sore breasts and was not interested in sex.
All the data on Tina marched into place and it was pretty clear to Bette what was wrong. She had seen it before.
“T. Are you about to have your period?”
“Why do you ask that?”
“Wild guess.”
“That’s not funny.”
“Sorry. But your behavior suggests a little PMS.” Bette was actually thinking that it reflected a lot of PMS.
“Bette, I’m tired. I had to go back to work today after a wonderful vacation. People had so many work questions and personal questions. It made me kind of crazy.” Tears started to well up in Tina’s eyes as she was saying this.
“You’re crying–for no reason that I can see. And you were crying last night.”
“I’m tired. I was annoyed at work and now you’re annoying me,” Tina tried to walk past Bette out of the kitchen.
Bette smoothly blocked her exit move and it was easy to do because the kitchen was so small. She put her arms around Tina and tried to pull her close. Tina struggled a little and then stopped, but was not completely relaxed.
“T, you tasted differently last night.”
“Bette, I hate that. Don’t say that.”
“You have no reason to hate that,” countered Bette.
“You never taste different! There must be something wrong with me.”
In their relationship Bette had noticed the different taste several times before she mentioned it to Tina and was surprised when it set Tina off. She had mostly avoided the issue ever since because of Tina’s reaction.
Tina tried to wiggle free but Bette held on.
“I’m sorry you have to put up with that,” Tina said.
“No, baby, it’s wonderful. It’s like I know something very special about you that no one else knows. It’s actually pretty great.”
Tina was quiet.
“Are you sure?”
“Of course, I’m sure,” responded Bette.
“Come on,” Bette said as she began to steer Tina to the bedroom.
“Bette, I really don’t want sex,” Tina said with tears in her voice.
“We’re not going to do that? OK?”
“OK,” Tina sniffed.
“Shower first as I’m drawing a warm bath for you. We’ll do this like the Japanese; I’ll scrub your back,” grinned Bette as she kissed Tina gently.
As Tina was showering, Bette filled several buckets with hot water and then filled the tub. After the shower, Tina relaxed in the warm water and Bette scrubbed her back, as promised. She periodically poured more hot water over Tina’s shoulders and carefully massaged Tina’s neck and shoulders. Tina relaxed.
It was difficult to look at a completely naked Tina and not try to make love to her. But Bette understood that Tina’s breasts were sore and her sex drive was somewhat in neutral at this point. And so she took care of Tina in a non-sexual way.
When she helped Tina from the tub, she dried her off and helped her into soft pajamas and put her to bed.
“I’m going to shower and I’ll be right with you.”
“Don’t be long, baby,” Tina said sleepily.
Bette didn’t take long, but Tina was already asleep when Bette crawled into bed. She smiled as she scooted in behind Tina and spooned her. Within minutes Bette was asleep, too.

i hate PMS LOL…i hope Tina will find a way to introduce Bette at work and alos deal with her moods…Bette is great and really patient
Geez, Pancha the way you do it that Tina is one lucky girl, even if she does have to put up with PMS. Hard to imagine how Bette could be more sensative, gentle and attentive. But I’m still upset that Tina forgot to go to Sue’s.
Pancha…what a lovely way to be pampered during that time of month. Bette was being wonderful and Tina was just being moody, but how isn’t then. LOL. I agree with funnyone..I’m upset that Tina missed that meeting with Sue. Not everything can be contributed to PMS..there’s another reason why Tina doesn’t want to make her marriage to Bette so finalized.
Tina’s PMS is not the reason that she is groupie [gripie at the whole group] Tina is really lucky that Bette will baby her,and very sensative to her during the time . Tina needs to look at these papers soon. If I had a woman like Bette in love with me,The tallest bldg wouldn’t be tall enough to shout it from. Dont need to tell you it been hot here, LOML did walk outsid today. get back on that in PM thanks
I hope the Bette in the show is as sympathetic and caring as your Bette. Then I could hate that Tina without turning back… Well, of course, it’d be perfect if that Tina is like your Tina, too. =( BTW, taste? what taste? I didn’t get that part.
Thanks for updating! Always look forward to a new entry from you.
I’m REALLY out of touch. I missed the PMS as well. LMAO For some reason I thought Tina might be pregnant which made no sense unless she decided to get inseminated without telling anyone. O.o I hate PMS. I won’t give details but let’s just say I turn into mega-bitch.
Bette is so sweet…..thanks for the post
Ah, TMS what a drag but Bette was sweet, I image BMS is holy terror time of month… ; )
juz caught up. real nice,pancha. LOL..and i hate PMS!!!!!!
Sorry im still laughing at techgal….lol..Anyway i say Bring it on…PMS i mean,dont get me wrong i suffer too but hun if i had Bette being so loving…then i dump the medication!!!lol… On the other hand is it just PMT with Tina???As for her work I dont think she 1s nesscecerly lying to anyone but herself…i didnt realise that Bette knew she wasnt “Out” in work….so she`s got that pressure and PMT…Ouch!
what a lucky woman is Tina cause Bette is so patiente and loving with her. i am to say thank you cause you put my mind in a happy planet in the middle of S3. great post
As soon as Bette asked Tina if she was about to have her period I said to myself, “Self, Bette is a brave, brave woman to ask that. No good ever comes (insert joke here) of that question.” Tina better get her emotions in check because there are only so many baths the Bette will draw for Tina after being raked over teh coals by her. Please post soon…get to us before Ilene doees!
Lovely story :-)
