All the Small Things–Chapter 8
She could easily see herself waking up next to the brunette. It seemed so easy and so familiar that it was unsettling. What was going on? Is she actually falling in love with her housemate? Was she a lesbian? Was this a phase? She moved another lock of hair and sighed.
“Bette,” Tina whispered. “I think I’m falling in love with you.”
Bette grumbled a little and turned over, surprising Tina.
“What was that?”
“Love you too,” Bette muttered into the pillow. Tina was close to not hearing it at all, had she not pressed her ear on the mattress to hear Bette. Tina waited for her to wake up, but she didn’t. It was all just a dream Bette was having, and Tina idly wondered if that dream included her. She then returned to her room, confused, hopeful, and for the first time, slightly excited.
But then reality hit her. She just led Henry on. Henry was bound to come back, under Bette’s nose, now that she was having second thoughts. She frantically searched for her phone, already thinking of what to say as she was dialing Henry’s number. Henry, I think you’re a nice guy, but I don’t really think I’m ready. Tina shook her head. She just told Bette she was ready to go out again. Tina shook her head again and paced around the room. She didn’t tell Bette that she was ready to date, and what she really wanted to say that she was ready to date Bette. But she just found out what she really wanted to say, didn’t she? Tina paced around the room, searching her thoughts for an appropriate let-down. Why couldn’t this be any easier? She was living with the person she was falling for, and yet no one wanted to make a move. It was like one big waiting game. What was she going to say to Henry? Henry, you’re nice and all, but I can’t keep up with you. Henry, I’m sorry. Henry, I think I’m in love with someone else. Henry–
“Hey, Tina,” Henry’s cheery voice greeted her. “How are you?”
“Hi, Henry,” Tina replied, trying to sound like she didn’t just found out that she was falling in love with her female housemate. “Hey, I think I have to tell you something.”

In four each should be able to see how the other feels. Tina is always giving Bette a hug. Did she ever just keep her in her arms and kiss her. Do we call them women of steel? Love this,story Post soon.
It’s like one big waiting game alright, but I’m enjoying the journey. PPS.
Really enjoying this story..something’s gotta give, and soon!
Keep it coming I am enjoying the story
u didn’t disappoint me afterall they both had an eiphany. they just need to talk but guess they’ll just get drunk and then fall into each other’s arms…seems like they are both avoiders…who need their friends to do an ‘intervention’…pps
Great story.I cant help but remember a friend crush of my own with the whole drunk as a skunk scenario:-)cant wait to see how long they can keep it secret and if they will end of telling each other about their feelings …..in rehab;-)
great chapter… please post soon…
I love your story!
wondering what the next installment will bring us. Enjoying it!
Amazing story! PPS!!!
You have drawn a wonderful parallel between the two of them. Both too fearful to take the next step. I can’t wait to see who finally is courageous enough to take the risk. My bet is on Tina…PPS!
oh im ever so giddy. more?
Yep, they both need to just spit it out! Bette needs to take Tina 3 Tylenol’s for her hangover and have a chat. Love this story!
Somebody’s got to make the first move…who will it be? Love this story! PPS
Nice update sounds like they need the gang’s intervention to get them together! :)PPS
Maybe Alice just needs to blurt out what she thinks and make Bette and Tina deal with the consequences. :)
Someone need to do something!
