Bette said more with the brown gaze that occupied the other woman’s thoughts. It was like she reached out and caressed her ex with her words entirely.
“I have to cook for you sometime.”
Again, Tina’s heart broke. Bette must have felt it then. She walked right past the blonde and it took all of her strength to hold back from reaching out to touch her.
“Bette.” Tina called out. “Turn around.”
Her partner of yesterday did. Slowly.
Tina thought Bette would always heed her plea to look at her with eyes that shone with the history of their past and the difficult challenge of their present. It wasn’t a secret. She held a piece of her once partner that no one will be able to interfere with or claim. Just like Bette had a claim on her too.
They acknowledged that they didn’t want to hurt anyone. With few words they both knew Bette didn’t want to make the same mistake. And Tina certainly didn’t want to be the one to make it with her.
What now? Where was this conversation taking them?
“There’s so much between us that I can’t…”
Can’t what?
Let go? Although she had. For a while that was exactly what happened. So much so that Tina encouraged her to go after someone else.
Understand? But she did. Tina loved her like no other and she knew Bette had feelings for her too.
Forget? How could she? When Bette kissed her with so much emotion that night. With so much passion. The hunger was palpable in that moment. Desire and longing.
Want? She did. Want Bette. For herself and for Angelica.
Act? And yet there she was. Hours before Kit and Angie were to arrive she was there.
They ended with Bette saying ‘I don’t know’ the last time they talked. Days have passed but that reality was still with them. Things were so complicated it was paralyzing.
Why did everything have to be so hard? Was this to be their mantra that halted them from moving forward? Would it stop the once couple from coming home to each other again?
The blonde wanted to be with her. To lie next to her as the twilight descended on the quiet of each day they would share.

I loved it, timeline or no timeline.
Just as the first time you presented this story, I felt that you had a better handle on Tibette than the writers of the show. They need to take a refresher course taught by you.
Even better the second time around!!!! :)
Thanks for reposting the story in its entirety. I enjoy your approach to the characters and the explanation of motive is often what we don’t see. Thanks for writing, and I hope you have time to share more soon.
i love how you’ve put all the chapters together. it does give a better sense of continuity. and also gives me another reason to read it again (and again).
”…the timeline is not perfect. ” Never worry about that, lwordid. (*my feeling is that anyone who watches tlw has already been innoculated against timeline detail frets. ;-) _ thanks for writing!
aww…loved it and i read the whole thing again, it worked better this way :)
simply lovely……great “stolen” line too! thx for this :-)
12 pages and still not enough! Thanks for putting all the chapters together and allowing your readers to enjoy this story in its entirety. Great stuff, as usual. Thanks for this.
