Bette Exposed Ch. 21
Bette: Well, for right now I want to focus on taking care of my beautiful wife and our adorable little girl. I cant think of anything else that takes priority over the two of you. So for now, I am going to put all of my energy into rebuilding our relationship and taking care of this precious little addition.
Tina: Will we be okay financially Baby?
Bette: T, dont worry about that okay. I promise you I will take care of things financially. And if it will make you feel better, I will call and set up a meeting with the Board in a couple of weeks to find out where things stand. I just want a couple of weeks to spend with the two of you. I need this Baby.
Tina: Well, I for one, am not going to complain about having you here with us. But I am warning you right now that I could really get used to this and maybe I wont want either of us to return back to work.
Bette: Well, Babe, if that happens I guess well just have to figure out a way to make money from home.
Tina: I cant believe you are so laid back about this Babe. This is just not like you.
Bette: T, I told you I am not the same person. My priorities have changed. Ive had plenty of time to look back over our life together and figure out where I could have done things differently. I swear to you that I will not make the same mistakes again. I had a taste of what my life was without you and I dont ever want to live that way again. I want to be a better person for you, for Katalina, for us, and for myself too. I realize now how fragile a relationship can be and that you have to nurture it to keep it from falling apart. And I plan to do just that.
Tina: Baby, I am very proud of you and the changes you are making. I love you so much.

I love this, these are all the questions that I have for Tina and Bette. You have put them all so wonderfully and I love that Tina is so patient. Thanks
That was very realistic, i can really see the two of them having that conversation. Great Story!
Ah that twas beautiful. You must continue.
I’m off to write a paper for school. Grr! I’d rather write fanfiction!
How can Bette think that Tina didn’t love her as much? She’s the one who did the jailhouse rock w/Candace (as well as the B&B Boxstep and the CAC Cha Cha). Even after the affair was revealed, Bette took her own sweet time to kiss Candy good-bye. I think she’s gotta cut Tina some slack on this stuff. (nicely done.) Psst…Bette — stop being a poopy head.
Great chapter yet again Thanks
for sure these are all questions that need to be asked and maybe more than once. Like the way you show how they both need time to come to terms with everything. Continue – continue!
I think Bette has hella nerve saying ANYTHING to Tina about Helena after she was the one to cheat with Candace. She started it, and she should just woman up and shut up!
Okay then.
Bette needs to focus her mind on that baby and give Tina a rest – but figuratively and literally – she went into all that drama while Tina was feeding the baby Then she got up and took a shower, never offering to burp the baby, change a diaper or anything else?
She oughta be with me! I’d have her a** changing diapers so much she wouldn’t have time to dwell on Helena or anything else but whether she could get a nap before the baby woke up again. Breast pumps were made for partners like her – to get her a** involved in the process instead of navel-gazing while the real work of childcare goes on!
Wow, you can tell this chapter got me pretty worked up, huh? Well, you got to this audience!
I’m cranky and I think I need to be put down for a nap.
Thanks for posting another chapter!

Just wonderfull Shades – and yes you are right..we all need answers on these questions and will we get them in the show – let´s find out.
Great update on your story ……keep up the good work. Post soon
Just read this one….I’m like 2 weeks late. But I have to say that this is totally plausible to me. I mean…Bette was away on a soul searching journey for months, her mind filled with images of Tina moving on with her life WITH HELENA. She’s only been back a short time. She hasn’t had a chance to really process everything. Her mind is still stuck in “Tina hates me and wants me out of her life” mode. Which is really how things were when she left. So, I totally see her fears and doubts as believable. And from what we have seen on the show…Bette did have an affair. But Tina started a relationship with someone. That is a very key point that isn’t really touched on very much. I understand that the affair was wrong…but Tina is not innocent. She was still “married” to Bette, yet she carried on a relationship with another woman. That’s hella shady to me. Just my humble opinion. Man…these are not real people. Why did I just take up so much time ranting about fictional characters?? I don’t know. In any event, great post with insightful dialog and realistic emotions.
