    Because You Love Me – Chapter 3




    Alphaville Studios

     

    It was 11:45am and Tina was already counting down the minutes until 1:00pm, she couldn’t wait to leave.  Her phone had been ringing ever since she set foot in the office.  But her constant phone calls were not the reason she wanted to leave; she couldn’t keep her eyes off the clock because she knew that she would be seeing her best friend soon.  She knew that today could be the day that changed the rest of her life.

     

    *Ring, Ring*

     

    Tina picked up the phone frustrated.  “Hello, Tina Kennard.”

     

    “Hey Tina, I’m glad I caught you,” said Shane.

     

    “Hey Shane, what’s up?” said Tina a little concerned, it was very rare for Shane to call her at work.

     

    “I wanted to see if you could maybe meet me for lunch, you know, if you have time.”

     

    “Sweetie I would love to, but I already made plans with Bette.  Why?  Is everything okay?”

     

    “Yeah, everything’s good, just wanted to talk.”

     

    “About” Tina egged on.

     

    There was silence before Shane finally let out, “Bette.”

     

    “Oh,” whispered Tina.

     

    “Well you and Bette actually.”

     

    “Uh huh.”

     

    “Tina, you know you can talk to me about anything, anything at all right?” supported Shane.

     

    “I know Shane, it’s justthis is all so new and confusing to me.  I mean she’s-” Tina started to babble.

     

    “Hey, hey, its okay.  Love isn’t supposed to be old and easy, especially with a woman.”

     

    Tina let out a sigh, “Shane what am I supposed to do.  You knowwe kissed last night.”

     

    “Like the best friend cheek/forehead kiss, or the”

     

    “The most incredible kiss I’ve ever experience kind of kiss.  It wasn’t even long Shane, just the fact that it was her made it perfect, absolutely perfect.”

     

    “Have you talked to her about it?”

     

    “No, hopefully over lunch” said Tina.  “Speaking of lunch, I have to go.  I need to get some stuff finished up here before I leave.”

     

    “Okay, I’ll talk to you later.” Shane said.  “Hey, and I know you would usually talk to your best friend about all this, but seeing as you really can’t right now, I’m here you know.  Call me.”

    1. Awww this is so sweet. It just shows that love may be right under your nose but isn’t always so obvious. It actually gives me some hope. Please post again soon!

    2. I so caught up today. This is such a wonderful story. Your Bette is so calm and understanding. To be off the side like that and waiting is so hard and she has such a sense of balance Thanks.

    3. Amazing and wonderful – this is so great and I really like the way Bette used the painting to open up their communication….she is a clever girl :o)) By the way – don’t be nervous about your writing Damien, it’s such a kick to read and always put a BIG smile on my face. I’m sooo looking forward to you’re posting again.

    4. Ok that’s odd? I just posted a comment but after refreshing, I didn’t see it. Hmmm?Anyways, I’ve been a long time reader and commenter of the pages but time has been scarce and I’ve had to ration it as need be. Well I love you story. I enjoy the angle, i.e. Bette and Tina being long time friends and soon to be lovers(?) That’s a risky jump to make. It raises the argument, is being ‘in-love’ worth more than just being ‘loved’? I’d like to think so but then that’s just me. Also, the way you helped Tina to express her feelings using the painting as a segue was masterful and bodes well for your story. I’m really looking forward to how you handle the changing dynamic of their relationship.

    5. hey Damien, this story is great and I hope you post soon. you Bette is amazing, so sweet. I like how your Tina seems to know what she wants, eventhough she may be fearful of what is to come. she doesn’t seem to be as flaky as she is sometimes portrayed.
