A Night in the D – Chapter 10
Bette smiled gently at her. So gently. “No,” she said, “you’re not.”
Tina nodded now. Silence descended on the room and suddenly Tina wanted out of it. Out of the silence, out of the room, out of the way of this bulldozer of a moment. She wanted never to leave, but if she had to leave, she wanted to leave now. The emotions played across her face, as her insides were seized by something not unlike panic. Bette almost gasped watching her.
“Hey,” she said softly, which only made Tina feel like crying. Soothing Bette was back. That wasn’t going to make it any easier.
“What are you thinking?” Bette asked, clutching Tina’s hand again as she tried to turn away.
“I’m thinking I have to go. And you have to go.” She fought to keep the despair from her voice. “It’s perfectly symmetrical. It makes perfect sense.”
“Oh.”
Why was someone always saying that? Tina hated the word now, its noncommittal nature. But she was committed to getting out of there before the whole noncommitment thing got any worse. She pulled her hand from Bette’s and reached with the other to retrieve her jacket from the floor. Bette stood, but Tina was moving so fast she wasn’t sure she could catch her. Or should. The feeling of helplessness Tina had experienced earlier shot through Bette as she watched the blonde’s façade fall back into place, her vulnerability shrouded by resolution.
The door opened and Bette felt her heart constrict. Something said no, don’t let her go, but she felt frozen to the floor. Numb to the bone. Tina turned back only briefly, to offer a smile Bette now knew to be a forced one.
“Checkout’s at
Bette couldn’t speak and only nodded, trying to say something with her eyes before Tina turned away and closed the door behind her. She stood unmoving, imagining the blonde’s rapid escape down the hallway, and swallowed hard at the image of Tina’s face-that fake smile, those real tears-before finally turning away herself, avoiding the mirror as she did so, not wanting to choke on her own fake smile, on her own genuine regret.

You are an AMAZING writer. My conjecture: Bette will leave. And then she wouldn’t help coming back later to get her T. It wouldn’t have meant (as) much if they had been able to get together right now, right there.
Well Done. Looking forward to the next installment.
OMG, always so close and then not. I agree with the others, I believe a blizzard is needed to keep Bette around a few more days. Love the teasing and the indecisiveness. Looking forward to next update.
You are now in my FAVORITES, because I love this story and I always look forward to another WONDERFUL CHAPTER….THANKS
OMG, stay,stay,stay…..
Ok I know this whole thing took longer than 5 minutes. So shouldn’t Tina be fired for staying away from her job that long? No seriously just kidding great update.
GULP now im getting all misty…that was really sad i know they hardly know each other but theres that connection thingie!!! YOU KNOW!!!THE ONE THEY HAVE!!lol ok getting carried away now!lol at the start must admit the thought of a hot sexy fling/one ngt stand was VERY appealing but now i like the way its going! god help my hormones!!lol cause there coulld be something deeper going on here! either way your some tease!!! thanks still lovin it!
I am so loving this story. I am glad they did do it…I love the verbal foreplay…it just builds the moment up. I’m thinking this will be one of those stories where they met, go their seperate ways then meet up several months later unexpectedly…but then they find themselves in a relationship. Anyway you go I’ll be reading.
I love this story and I love your subtle writing. Can’t wait to read what happens next!
I love this story. Your words seem to truly capture the emotions between the two of them. Please make them get together.

you have NO idea what this is doing to me == excellent
Wow!!! My heart was in my throat throughout that whole chapter!!! Excellent!!! Thanks!
I believe it was last night I glanced over maybe 2 lines on the very first page and thought, “Oh God this is gonna be boring as hell,” but am definitely glad I gave it and you another chance. The style of this fanfic reminds me of a movie I’d watch on the Independent Film Channel at 3 AM and then obsess about it for the next week or so. I’m really interested to see how the next few chapters go and if they will set the tone for rest of the story, or if we will get thrown for a loop in the end.
Let it snow.letit snow.let it snow. thanks
This is a great story. I have no clue where you are taking us, but we need our B&T together as a couple–Please!
wow, that was great
love the story. please post again soon.
