Her first instinct was to call the house phone not even thinking of the possibility of Bette answering. She also didn’t even consider of the possibility of Ava not being home. She just plain didn’t think. When Bette picked up, Tina immediately wanted to hang up. Though everything inside her screamed to run into Bette’s arms, Tina didn’t want to do things that way.
For one, she didn’t want to burden the brunette with any of her problems. Secondly, it was a little awkward given their situation. She knew she should have handled things alone or at least without the help of Bette but as soon as Tina heard that sweet voice, she knew there would be no fighting it. As hurt at the betrayal as she was, a very big part of her still wanted Bette and wanted to be comforted by her. It was a need Tina didn’t have the strength to fight against anymore. Whether they remained friends or something more, Tina just wanted to be around Bette now more than ever.
She plopped down on the edge of the couch and rested her elbows on her knees, her head in her hands and completely oblivious to the small box resting in front of her. She felt lightheaded from all the crying, the intense pounding she felt was dying down thankfully. Tina closed her eyes just as she felt a soft breeze hit her warm skin, Bette had come back from the kitchen. Without a word, the brunette set the teacup on the coffee table in front of Tina and sat beside it and unknowingly in front of the engagement ring box. She contemplated giving Tina a hug but opted for leaning forward instead, her fingers playing with the creases of Tina’s jeans that had formed where her knee bent.
It was a very sweet gesture, one that spoke of uncertainty but caring at the same time. It also made Tina want to cry that much harder. Bette obviously cared for Tina and she was showing it the best way she knew how.
"Talk to me, Tina"
Her tone was whisper soft and it made Tina want to cry all the more. How could someone who didn’t even love her be so thoughtful and compassionate? How could someone who supposedly loved her with their whole heart crush her as if she were nothing? Did she even have the right to feel emotion about either situation?

Oh no, I don’t like the way this ended!!! What went wrong? T
First let me say YEEEHEY!….The bitch is Gone!…And way to go Bette!…It’s 6 months had past..for sure It’s Tina’s Grammy party..but.. why I had a feeling Tina got a new gf?… …
Six months?! They haven’t talked in six months?! Life’s short! Time’s a wastin’!
ooooooo can’t wait for more, i got so wrapped up in that chapter. Finally Ava’s gone, and so is Sam now time has passed a lot of emotional work has been undergone now maybe it’s time to focus on what they really want, EACH OTHER! Let’s hope it eventually works out that way. You’re doing a great job Liah :D
WOW six months is a long time, hope they will talk again and work thing out. Please post more, thanks!
Heh so answered my question and now I got a million more gee thanks Liah haha
Let me guess – Tina hooked up and got together with Helena. If so the story is definitely riuned for me.
Thanks Liah for another amazing update!! :-) first thing first…. “Bette held her head in her hands and stared down at the velvet box sitting on the coffee table.” and she didn’t think what would Tina felt or thought when saw it!? Was she really that blind or *cough* stupid?! Second, what do you meant 6 months later?! What happen in that half a year besides probably Tina sign up with planet?! They don’t talk anymore besides business or what?!? And last but not least… How could you end the chapter there!?! Such a tease!! … Now about Ava.. Glad that she finally out of the picture 👯 :-) and again… Is Ava the one who slept with Sam?! is she?! Is she?! :-0 ouch! So many questions on my mind as it seems that it’s not clear yet on what on earth is going on?! And it’s kinda ironic yet “funny” fact that actually all 4 of them are cheater!! No matter what is the definition of cheating and who is the most guilty one. The bright side of it is to let everyone back to square one again! And hopefully, from there they can have a fully fresh start! :-) towards a better future of course … (read as happy Tibette love story ;-) ) So Liah… Please pretty please do us a favor by posting update ASAP aka PPVS?!? :-) don’t let us hang in the balcony for too long as we might not survive the fall :-p so please come and rescue us before it happen :-) hehe…
Six months has passed? Did Tina sign on with Planet Records or turn it down. Can’t wait for the next post.
Whats going on? 6 months ?Pleaaase moore soon.Thank you for this great story.
Absolutely excellent but you’re such a tease. Please post soon. Thank you.
Tina made it in the industry at the speed of the Biebs. I’m happy for her. A Grammy nod which means that she may have or will go on tour? I hope Bette didn’t give in to Ava and they eloped. Loved this update Miss Liah 👋😘 thank you
Ava is out, Sam is out. But six months? I wonder if Tina still thinks that Bette has proposed Ava or maybe Tina had forgive Sam?
Well, Bette broke it off (or did she?) with Ava… that was a good thing. Tina seemed to say goodbye to Bette (or did she?), and that was not such a good thing. Six months have passed… I wonder what happened in the interim. It would be sort of sad if Bette missed out on Tina in her life in both a professional *and* personal capacity. Oh well. I’ll just have to wait and see how the story unfolds. Thanks for posting. :)
