Angels Never Came Down 7
For four years Bette had waited. At first, she had been sure that Tina was still at her house. She had driven like a maniac back to Tina’s house and was shocked to find it empty. Then she was sure that Tina would return after a few days. She would show up at Tina’s house every morning, certain that she would find Tina, sheepish and embarrassed. Everyday Bette had rehearsed what she would say.
After the first week, she rehearsed saying, "Welcome back! I’m glad you told me how you feel. I feel the same way. Let’s put all this drama behind us."
After the first month, she rehearsed saying, "Welcome back. I’m glad you’ve sorted out your issues. I still feel the same way. Let’s put all this drama behind us."
After the first six months, she rehearsed saying, "Tina, you’ve come back! Now we can go on with the rest of our lives together. I love you."
After the first year, she rehearsed saying, "Tina, you didn’t have to stay away for so long. I haven’t forgotten what you wrote. I love you. I’ve always loved you."
After the first two years, she rehearsed saying, "It’s been so long. I don’t know if you still feel the things you wrote on your letter. But I do know that I still love you. I’ve always loved you."
After three years, she occassionally addressed the letter, now fading and nearly falling apart, "Tina, where are you? I love you."
After three and a half years, she crumpled the letter every night that Tina did not come, and smoothed it out every morning as she awoke with hope.
After four years, Bette has had enough.
Today, on the anniversary of Tina’s departure from her life, she was certain that it was time to move on.
Bette took one last look at the piece of paper in her hand. She bent down and picked up a small rock. She stared down at it and was surprised to find it was full of small holes. Just like her life for the past few years.
She wrapped the letter around the rock. With a deep sigh, she cocked back her arm. A final goodbye floated from her mouth as she flung the rock with all her might into the ocean.

Wow, four long years, that is trulyheartbreaking. Hopefully Tina will now come back nd let her know that she too has been miserable and wants and needs Bete back in her life. Thanks for posting.
That’s a mighty long time to wait for someone. I hope Tina’s nearby, ready to give an explanation. PPS
OMG heartbreaking…..poor Bette and Dam it Tina why are you always running
Your author’s notes was quite the tease. So what DID happen to make Tina take a 4 year hike? And what has happened to her since? And why did she put Bette through the wringer for so long? Geez!
That was such a sad update. My heart broke – Poor Bette. Sigh! I do hope Tina comes back. Thank you for continuing with this story.
That was sad and hope they will see each other again!
That was truly heartwrenching. Your writing is so good, an excellent chapter. I can’t wait to see where this story leads.
Four years… that’s 1461 lonely days, and a long time for Bette to have kept hoping, with her heart on hold. I wonder what Tina has been out there experiencing, thinking about, for 4 years? Has Bette ever even looked for her? Lots of questions. I’m glad you’ve continued this one too, 7. pps! Thanks :)
ouch.. I think my heart just broke.. Poor Bette, Tina better come back soon, thanks for posting though and I hope the next chappie comes soon! =)
wow, you know your Drama 101 very well…i didn’t expected this but i like this turn…i hope Tina is right behind her or is coming soon before it’s really too late…are you going to give us Tina’s POV of her 4 years away? it would be interesting…pps to mend our broken hearts
HEy 7PM, It is always darkest before the dawn so I hope that this is just a pause before Tina returns and tries to rebuild a relationship with Bette. This friendship will develop into something more. Something that neither Bette nor Tina can deny any longer. Their attraction to each other.Bette let Tina go and now is the time for her to return and prove they belong to together.Sad right now and I hope a brighter future for them both.Please continue soon.Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
