Bette and Tina lay on the bed in a heap. Tina, sobbing, lay atop Bette, in the same position where she fell. Bette clutched Tina to her, stroking her hair. Bette had always loved Tina’s hair. It’s silky golden strands were just like Tina: beautiful, soft and warm, yet deceptively strong.
Tina’s sobs began to lesson as she cried herself out. Bette’s guilt seared through her with each sob. The bite marks on her face and body throbbed in time with Tina’s sobs. That’s okay. I deserved that, she thought. I deserved all of that.
At the same time, oddly, she felt relief. The inevitable had happened, and Tina had found her out. Now that the other shoe had dropped, Bette felt as though a great weight was off. No more hiding, no more sneaking around, no more lies.
And Tina was still with her. Deeply hurt. No, Bette, she thought, be honest. No more lies. She’s devastated. You did this. You promised you’d always protect her, take care of her, love her. You did this, asshole. Now how are you gonna fix this, smart guy, huh?
This is so truly fucked up. How did we get here? Never once did I ever think we would end up here. I was so sure I never could…that I never would…Fuck. But Tina’s still here. We can work this out. I know we can. We have to.
As Bette lay there, imagining a light at the end of the dark tunnel she’d been in for months, Tina began to stir. She abruptly sat up, straddling Bette. Bette lay quietly underneath her, waiting to see what Tina would do next. Tina reached over to the nightstand and grabbed some tissues.
They were both silent as Tina wiped the tears from her face, blew her nose, and then tossed the tissue into the trash.
“Hey, basket! Two points!” Bette tried to joke. Tina stopped dead and just stared at her. Bette started to speak again, but after a good look at the expression on Tina’s face quickly decided that silence was the better part of valor.
Tina cocked her head to one side as she studied Bette’s face intently. Bette watched her expression change, from seriously pissed, to something else, something Bette had never seen before. Almost neutral, detached. She studied Bette as though Bette were an ameoba on a slide. A cold chill ran down Bette’s back. Instinctively, Bette knew this was much worse than screaming, fighting Tina.

damn seriously i wish we saw this on the show “Candace must have really fucked your brains out, Bette. You’ve never been stupid before.” and Bette grew increasingly desperate as she realized how completely Tina’s trust in her was broken. these had my eyeballs pop out my head!! waitin for ur next
Thank you for this story, I hope you’ll finish those other stories you’re talking about, I love how you write. The Scene was so perfect in its angst, anger, disappointment, love, the only other scene that can be compared to it in my eyes is the OMFG scene, both are so emotional and as I said perfect, though they are each other’s opposites. Forgive me, but I’ll continue to babble… the S3 Tina is said to be unredeemable “coz of what she’s done to Bette”, but what Bette did to Tina was way worse… At least, that’s how I see it. The shit that is between them now started when Bette let Candace touch her. Unlike about 99% of TiBetters, I’m not taking sides when it comes to these two people, I certainly don’t hate Tina for S3 and I obviously don’t hate Bette either… its their mutual fault and I wish people stopped blaming Tina for everything… See, your story is so great that it made me write a friggin’ essay here, please finish your other stories, will be glad to read them.
After living on pooh sandwiches, poor writing, behavior changes with no explanation, and killing off a major character for no reason, season 1 looks good. Reminds me that I used to like the show and thought it would only get better. Your take on this scene is excellent. I encourage you to continue and look forward to reading your other stories as well.
Very good, thank you for writing this!
Great, powerful dialogue.
where’s the rest of this story? please continue i as i love angry tina/grovelling bette!!
Please continue this story.
That was such a painful scene…even after two more seasons it still just grabs at you. Thanks!
Where have you been hiding all this time? There are always huge chunks missing from the show. You captured the characters perfectly. Please continue writing.
awesome, awesome, awesome. this is what we should’ve seen.
this is really a nice story. it is touching the heart of the matter. please continue, ashley
That was great! Please continue soon.
Great chapter! I am wondering why when Tina told Bette to think things clear, Bette did manage that; while when Bette wanted Tina to figure things out, she just avoided and jumped directly to someone’s arms?
That was painful! Please continue – I know it’s going to be a bumpy ride, but perhaps in your story they can sort this mess out.
this is good – are you going to continue?
it was intense, tina was mad as hell wanting explanations from bette but not letting her speak..but at least it explains the words that bette told her at the planet…i love to revisit season 1 and 2 now because season 3 just drained me with all the drama
yes pls continue, I like this Tina, she mad as hell, but still seems somewhat sane in the midst of it all…grovel bette!!!
More please!!
Thanks for getting up the courage to post this–it is wonderful. I love your dialogue. I hope that this is just the tart of many postings. There is always room for quality!
I’ll take a very bad Helena,in S1=2 to a terrible Tina in S3. I can still feel the heartache and pain from that . Tina was mad but not so hurtful and wicked.and we Had no Henry. Thanks
Damn this is fucking sad and please continue, thanks!
that was fucking intense! way better then aftermath they shown on the show…just wow
