Another Minute
Would this last? Or would Tina run?
“Was it a mistake?” Tina asked, and the blonde seemed so calm, so sure that Bette answered honestly, caution be damned, courage speaking, her heart feeling like it could float away.
“No… I don’t think so…” big brown eyes now questioned hazel and there was something so different about Bette lately, something tangible and vulnerable and sweet. She was always like this, privately, but now… now it was somehow brought to the surface. Tina waited, hoping… would Bette say more… was it possible they could reconnect after all the fucking mess they’d been though?
There was a tinge of worry… even sadness in those brown eyes, almost like Bette was holding her breath until Tina answered. The sadness gutted Tina, knowing she was the author of Bette’s pain.
She hurried to reassure her former wife… “neither do I…” butterflies flittering and fluttering in her stomach and all she wanted was to take Bette in her arms and show her what her heart, her brain, her very soul wanted… demanded… with a clamor she could no longer ignore.
“It feels so real to me…”
“It is real…” Tina said, confident as if she could read Bette’s mind, the brunette’s warm hands on her own again, their warmth infusing her as if the sun had come out from behind a cloud, and the way Bette was looking at her… Jesus… when did she stop noticing how Bette looked at her?
Whereas the first kiss was sweet, hopeful, tender even… this one…fuck… this kiss built, this kiss was fire itself. Not the kind of fire that burned things down, this was a fire that renewed, that restored, turning sleeping heat into smoke, smoldering, sparks flying. Kissing Bette was always a mosaic of sensations, the smell of her hair, the softness of her skin, the way she tasted… and there was the familiar touch of Bette’s hand on the back of her head, the warmth of the brunette’s mouth as it opened to welcome Tina’s tongue, swallowing the blonde’s moan as it traveled up her throat.
Wanting to cover Tina in everything she was feeling, Bette placed kisses along Tina’s neck, her jawline, kisses that felt like fire on her skin, kisses that overwhelmed and aroused the blonde as she tilted her head to the side, eyes closed, giving Bette more room. More room, more skin, more access, more more more. And it felt so good, so right, so familiar… Bette’s hand on her neck, the thumb caressing down the middle of her throat as Bette licked up the other side, taking a soft earlobe into her mouth… the heat of it… the wetness… a sound rumbling up Tina’s throat, a moan that thought it was discrete but only enflamed the brunette, her tongue now in Tina’s ear as she followed it with a throaty whisper.

Ahhh I’m speechless in the best way possible, bless you and your amazing brain for creating these stories. And thank you for not leaving it alone and giving us your take we need a Toronto series fic, meeting Tina’s friends and then flying back and fourth seeing their family and them doing the same. Ahhh I can’t wait for the next chapter, but still so speechless but it was just perfect
Maddyson – what a lovely comment, thank you so much! We do need a Toronto fix! Aren’t we picturing them in the snow and the cold weather, celebrating the holidays and the new year together? Stupid show for not giving us this …
Glad you liked it, I appreciate you taking time to comment

What a lovely chapter and the unpacking of Bette and Tina’s reunion… you have certainly given a better story of the their reunion than was presented by Generation Q. You really do reflect as to what I feel that Bette and Tina feel about each other. However, my question has always been is how did they end up being apart to begin with. This story does get some hints in that direction… and I do appreciate that more than you know. You see for me, I have always been of the opinion that Tina has all the answers. It was Tina who left Bette… it was Tina who requested the divorce and it was Tina who has controlled the relationship since the divorce. And yet she has blamed Bette for her decisions and motivations to make the choices she has made. And yet I have no clue as to what was so wrong with Bette that Tina would have chosen to run rather than to fight for this love of her life. I can see Bette doing whatever it took to get Tina back but only after she knew that Tina still loved her. I am still not sure that is true of Tina. The appearance that Bette simple request for her to stay would cause her to run back to Toronto appearing to be angry and not trusting of Bette’s motives seems not to bode well for their future. That scene did not engender much love and trust of Tina and the future for Bette and Tina together for me.
Thank you for this chapter… very well written and makes Tina a little more understandable and likable. I just hope that Bette decides to listen and hear what Tina has to say about their history. They owe it to each other to explain their choices and responses to bumps which they have gone through particularly those which have effected their relationship with each other and with Angie.
I am presuming this a singular chapter unless you see something in episodes 9 and 10 which needs more explanation. But if its not, I certainly look forward to reading more… Thank you for your contributions.

I have missed you! Feels like its been a minure as they say down here since we last discussed our thoughts on this series.
You ask a doozy of a question my friend -” how did they end up being apart to begin with.??”
There really was no intention on the part of the writers or the showrunner to answer this question. What we know of where we left this couple in the OG also doesn’t track with how they are introduced on GQ.
I refuse to explain TIna’s behavior using the interview tapes as I do not consider them canon. So HOW do we explain her behavior?
I think Tina felt for a long time like she wasn’t enough for Bette. Insecure, anxious, impulsive – we all saw these traits in the Tina portrayed since TLW S1. Laurel H did an incredible job fleshing out the character with the lack of back story and plot designed by IC. But again and again I circle back to the cohesive, attentive, respectful partnership we saw in the last season of TLW. So there really is no way to answer your question without suspending a great deal of rational thought and understanding.
I anticipate more to this chapter as we see the upcoming episodes so I will rack my brain to see what explanation I can come up. I do believe they each share the blame and are equally terrible at communicating but I have never bought it to the idea that Bette was self absorbed and put her work over her family or that Bette’s personality was hard to live with. That is not the Bette Porter I see or like to write about. Flawed, complicated, attachment issues yes.
Thank you Martha, Hope you are well
BK
Well, I guess that was episodes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 of that mess called GQ. Thank you filling in the obvious cracks. Please keep posting!
A total mess Majic! A total ugly mess. Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment. More to come
BK
Thank you BK, I love you almost as much as I do my favourite couple for giving us these great posts. Not even going to mention Gen Q.
Loved it
SG
You are most welcome SG! Sounds like we share the same opinion of the disaster that is GQ. Hope you and yours are happy and health in this new year!
Wonderful explanation. The writers on Generation Q could learn something from you.
WKM
Thank you! I think there are several writers here on this site who could teach Showtime a thing or two about how to write a watchable show! Thank you for commenting
Amazing story. Thank you for sharing your talent.
NYC
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
I was so excited to see a new story from you. Will definitely read after work. I also hope you haven’t given up on Black Beauty. I just love your writing.
Hi Lee – Looking forward to your thoughts once you have time to read it. I am currently working on Black Beauty, should be ready soon. Thank you for reading my stories and taking time to let me know how much you like them. BK
woo=hoo, another story from BK! BK, I don’t know if you’re on Twitter, but you’re getting a lot of love over there
I’m happy to see them back together on GenQ, but how I would have loved to see the beautiful scenes you write here in this story. Bette’s speech was everything Tina needed to hear, these words you wrote just perfect – “Find her. Fight for her”. Then later Tina’s speech was what Bette needed to hear – I will never ever run away from you again I am committed to this to you to us I will be so careful with your giant tender precious heart and I will stay still when I get scared”
Thank you for giving us Tina calling Bette baby and Bette calling Tina Tee and I loved them packing for Toronto.
And you always can make me laugh – “Jesus Mary and Joseph and the damn donkey too” lol
All your stories have a line or passage that just stays with me. Seems like every other page in this one I thought that’s my favorite line. My favorite is truly – :”It was a kiss that neither ever forgot a kiss laced with a love that was bent but not broken a love that never gave up a love for the ages” A love for the ages, that is Bette & Tina and BK, you always capture that.
And the last paragraph – nothing I can say except – just perfect.
Westy – TWITTER? My goodness I am speechless and that doesn’t happen often. I had no idea. Maybe BK needs a twitter handle….hmmmm… I have no idea how to do any of that but I love good banter and collaboration so might be worth the peek. Any tips would be appreciateed, I just learned BeReal lol.
I love all the parts you picked out – need to hear them call each other Baby on the show, what the heck ARE those writers doing anyway? So glad you liked it, we can dream of next week but I prefer to have low (very low, like in the basement low) expectations so I don’t go into a deep depression over the treatment of my fav couple.
All the best Westy! Happy New Year!
Bk that was just beautiful! Thank you!❤
Awesome Lee! Glad you liked it!
Hey BK,
Happy New Year, i wish you all the best life can give you!
So happy to see you back and trying to fix the mess and that is GQ. I simply can’t believe that a selfish, arrogant and non talented showrunner ruined the show, a reboot Jennifer, Ilene Kate and Leisha fought so hard for to get back. GQ makes no sense at all, rubbish story lines, no connection with the newbies, divorcing Tibette and after much pressure from the fans and Jennifer we got two lousy episodes to see them reunited and disappear for six episodes without one mention to Tibette in them. I really hope that we will get a Tibette wedding but knowing Marja bitch, we will be robbed of and maybe have them for five minutes in the last episodes.
About the chapter, you really are so good in describing the emotions, their thoughts, fears and hope. Both are responsible for the break up i think but i do feel that it’s more Tina’s fault, she admitted to running instead of fighting and communicate her fears to Bette , the way she felt she was not good enough etc. It’s a pattern we saw in the OG, but in the end of the OG, they were so happy, equal in their relationship, Bette moving to NY to support Tina. I really wish GQ gave us answers about why Tina divorced Bette, it doesn’t make sense but nothing in GQ makes sense at all.
Love that you and other writers try to fill in what GQ is lacking.
Sorry i didn’t have had the time to read your story before now but you know i will always read it whenever i can.
Thank you again for your wonderful stories and this chapter!!!
BiBi my dear we are in such agreement about GQ. It makes me incredibly sad and frustrated that they blew this opportunity to such a degree we will neve know. Imagine if they fully embraced a season of Tibette. Shame on Marja.
Never apologize for reading or not reading – I am grateful that you find time to read my work and even more appreciative that you take time to tell me what you think! Email me, I would love an update on how life has been and I hope youve had a wonderful New Year!
Will email you!
Of course your adaptation for GenQ sea3, epi 2, is just what our Lil Tibette hearts. I love when Authors like you paint the screenplay that incorporates the length of time that these two have been lovers….EXTREMELY intense lovers.
For them the physical & emotional investment is the WHOLE value of their existence. Tina has been UNquestionably liberal in showing affection and UNinhibited in the expression of vulnerability to be loud, dirty talking in her passion.
Bette’s expression of same, flows from a somewhat less freedom . . . . EXCEPT W I T H Tina. Tina does not reject Bette when they are making love or just flat out Fckn!!! HeHeHe!!!
Thank you Dumplin! I have missed you! yes, very intense loving and fking and all the stuff in between. You wrote – Tina does not reject Bette – and I said YES Ma’am Amen. Keep the ideas coming, we are on the same page!
Love this. Made my day logging in and seeing you posted! Hoping to read a new chapter on black beauty soon ❤️
Thank you Brittany! Writing BB right now – they have reached the port at Edge City. Lots of drama. Prepare for a very ALPHA Captain. Ha. Stay tuned
Ahhh! Can’t wait!!
Hi BK,
I don’t think, I can add anything that others have not already said! This chapter was exceptional! ❤️
Why, oh why, were you not the GQ front runner, your stories are what we wanted, the words, the feelings, the emotions, the intimacy are all described beautifully!
I loved how you cleared up the burning question we all had, about Bette’s passport, money and clothes Please continue with this story, I’m absolutely loving it.
I’ve followed your stories for years, Remember Who You Are, being one of my favourites ever! Can’t wait for the next chapter of Black Beauty either….just stunning stories and written so beautifully.
Take care and stay safe
BK, First than you for writing and thank you for this exceptional tale. It was a pleasure to read. I look forward to reading more of your work.
It was really great! In a season so full of blanks this fic heals a lot.
