    As Good As It Gets – Chapter 4

    "Better. I still regret what I did though" There was so much pain behind those beautiful brown eyes, it broke Tina’s heart.

    "Has she forgiven you?"

    "So she says"

    "Then why haven’t you forgiven yourself?"

    The question made Bette lift her eyes from the ground she had been so focused on and look into Tina’s, the tears blurring her vision from the beautiful sight before her. The sight she didn’t dare claim as her own, she didn’t deserve to stake a claim on someone so pure and loving. Tina was too good for her.

    A stray tear fell down her cheek and this time, Tina caught it before it could completely roll down. Bette instinctively grasped her wrist and they both froze in place for a moment.

    "Bette . ." Tina said softly as she grazed her thumb over Bette’s cheek, "You keep talking about what you don’t deserve and what you shouldn’t do. I know you’re afraid to hurt Ava, you’re afraid to do something that benefits you because you personally feel you’re not worthy but you’re so wrong about that. You deny yourself anything good that comes your way and that’s not right"

    Bette wasn’t sure if it was the crying or the drinks she had but she suddenly felt dizzy. Her head was spinning and she felt lighter than air. Tina’s touch had a way of affecting her to the point she could barely move or talk. Even now as Tina took another step closer, Bette thought she was going to pass out. She felt Tina’s warm breath against her cheek, the scent of champagne and strawberries filled her nostrils.

    "Tina . ." Bette closed her eyes in surrender as more tears streamed down her cheek. She wanted to indulge in something she actually wanted for so long but she was too hesitant, too afraid. Now however, everything seemed different. Something told her she actually deserved to do something she wanted.

    "Don’t make yourself miserable to see someone else happy. There could be someone out there that would be willing to make you the happiest woman alive" Tina whispered as she slowly moved her hand along Bette’s cheek and cupped it more comfortably. She slowly moved in, her eyes closing of their own accord as she leaned in to place a gentle kiss on the brunette’s lips.

    1. Neither one is married to their GFs so break it off as gently as possible and then see where their relationship can go. It may burn fast and furious and then flame out or it might be the “Eternal Flame”.

    2. Thanks for the posting… Wow! I wish that relationships didn’t get into the desperation phase when their time of completion was over.I know that letting go is hard but when the relationship has come to its end being miserable is truly not the way to go. Holding on to something that isn’t there is a cruel thing to do to yourself. Life is too short to be so miserable. Let go to Sam, Tina! Let go of Ava, Bette. Its okay to do that as being miserable is not evolving. guess maybe its a fear that everyone will look at us as being failures in a relationship, but honestly that isn’t what the truth of it is. Others come into our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime… to reflect back to us parts of ourselves… our past, our present or a possible future.

    3. Oh, WOW!!! This will be the forever kind of love with these two when they finally get together. Please let them both know somehow that their girlfriends are having affairs and they don’t have to be feeling guilty to break off their respective relationships. They are so right for each other. Awesome chapter. Thanks.

    4. loving it! I just think if Tina is so eager to get Bette to realize that Tina’s is better for her than Ava then Tina should not seem guilty about Sam, I mean she shouldn’t seem unsure herself. Hope to read more soon Liah! Thanks :D

    5. I hope Bette has now gotten all the encouragement she needs to do the right thing and end it with Ava. Tina has some thinking of her own to do. In the mean time, Helena needs to give up with the pursuit of Tina already. But… if she waits around long enough, she can be there to “console” Ava. They would likely be a perfect match. ;) Thanks for the post, Liah! :)

    6. still with your big smile, just like us when we see each new chapter, your story is amazing and well written. wait to read more, please still post often! :*

    7. There is an analogy that I have in mind for Bette and Tina’s situation but words fail me right now. I love where you have taken this story, I feel like you’re trying on something new. You’re doing a great job conveying Bette’s turmoil, and I love that you made Tina intuitive enough to pick up on it. The fact that she had the audacity to bring it up shows immense courage. I’m glad that they’re taking time apart to evaluate their own relationships. Doing the right thing in other words. I have a question for you, do you feel that a story is easier to write if sides are black and white and Bette and Tina’s? They’re both unhappy in their current relationships and should be with each other. Would they have felt the same way about each other if they were happy with their girlfriends? Ok that’s 2 questions but I just love how you weave your stories. You really do love us. Thank you for the awesome post Miss Liah. I hope I don’t offend you with my questions.

    8. Oh this just getting more, and more interesting . I can’t wait to see how each will handle this situation. And how they deal with they feel about each other. What will each decide and will they end up together . Can’t wait post soon

    9. WOOOOOW. That kiss was better than anything I could have expected! I love this story, so full of emotion I can feel it all over my own being. Amazing writing :)
