“I have to finish breaking up with Jodi,” Bette said. “Can I call you back?”
“On my cell,”
“Yes,” Bette agreed. “Just give me a few minutes.
Alice was trying to speak with Jodi while simultaneously eavesdropping on Bette’s phone conversation. As a result she didn’t do either with much flair or attention.
“Alice, I think Jodi and I need a few minutes alone,” Bette said.
Alice quietly left the room and waited in the hall.
“Jodi,” Bette started. “I have such deep respect for you…but lately, I’ve felt truly suffocated by our relationship. I don’t think we’re what each other needs.”
“Where is this coming from? Is it the podcast? I’ve apologized for that,” Jodi explained.
“That has nothing to do with it,” Bette said, shaking her head. “It’s about what I need in a relationship. And I need that with Tina again.”
“Tina?” Jodi asked. “How many times does that relationship have to fail before you give up?”
“Apparently one more time,” Bette replied. “I’m sorry. But this isn’t working for me.”
Bette’s words matched her signing.
“Well, at least you had the courage to tell me yourself,” Jodi said. “I can’t say I’m not hurt, but I’ve noticed a change the last few weeks.”
“I know you’ll find someone more suitable to you,” Bette replied. “Someone more carefree than I can be.”
“Someone less monogamous,” Jodi replied. “That rule really was starting to grate on me, you know.”
Bette smiled awkwardly.
“I’ll just…go for now then,” Bette said.
“Okay, see ya,” Jodi replied and returned to her blow torch.
Bette dialled her phone as she closed the studio door.
“Tee,” she said excitedly. “I know it seems sudden, but when you know you want something, you just have to go for it.”
“I’m willing to try,” Tina replied. “I’m a little shocked at your call, but the connection we’ve had the last few days has been on my mind constantly.”
“It’s been on my mind too,” Bette replied. “I love you Tee, I want to make it work. So we can be a family.”
“We can be open now?” Tina asked.
“Totally open and honest with everyone,” Bette replied. A weight had been lifted from her. “I already broke up with Jodi and I told Alice what’s been going on.”
“Wow, when you make up your mind you go for it!” Tina laughed.
“I have to make it work with you,” Bette replied. “You’re my soul mate.”
They made plans to meet that evening at Tina’s and Bette disconnected the call.
“You’ve lost your mind,” Alice said, walking beside her. “And I mean that in the best possible way.”
Bette couldn’t wipe the smile off her face.
She and Tina met that night, made love and laughter and didn’t care who heard them. They fell asleep in each other’s arms and no one left in the middle of the night.
Bette woke up the next day…alone.
“What the fuck?” she said. She was in her own bed. In her house.
She looked around. It was a dream.
“Thank fuck that wasn’t real,” Bette sighed, climbing out of bed.
She quickly got ready and headed to the Planet to meet Alice for breakfast.
Just outside the main doors, she saw an old woman leaning over a trash can. The woman leaned up and looked at Bette expectantly. Bette stopped in her tracks, speechless.
“It’s okay,” Bette stammered. “I’m going to talk to Jodi right now. I know Tina’s the one for me. Deceit is the path of fools.” Bette backed away as she dialled Alice’s number.
“And people think I’m crazy,” the woman’s gravely voice creaked out as she spoke to herself and dug back into the trash.
Bette left a message on Alice’s voice mail.
“I’m sorry Alice,” Bette said. “I have something I urgently need to take care of. I had a bit of an epiphany. Sorry, but I’ll tell you more later.”
Bette headed straight to Jodi’s studio in an effort to start righting some egregious wrongs.
(the end.)

You are the best!:)
Well that was different! Bette struck by a truth spell! Lets just hope Tina doesn’t have a similar one and say she’d prefer to just stick to the hot sex for now! Or Jodi gets it and tells Bette to take the stick out of her ass!! Very enjoyable read.
Bette…forced to be honest. I like it. Thank you!
cool!
LMAO JKS, I loved it! That was soooo well written. The line “. “Write her a note, send her a text, drop her an email. End it however you want. Hey, I’ll do a podcast and make sure it’s subtitled”! just broke me up….I’m still laughing. A brilliant example of your creative genious!
Hilarious. This totally fixed my shitty mood. Thanks.
That was better then the show tonight! Thanks!
JKS, this story is heart warming and equally funny. The part were Alice was asking Bette questions really cracked me up..LOL!
Now this, swim, my dear, was pure unadulterated incredible utter genius! ~~ Did I make it clear how much I loved this?
I loved that….thanks…
That was fun….! Keep spinning those great stories.
don’t know if i’ve ever commented on one of your stories before (though i’ve meant to), but i just had to with this one….LOVED it SO much, had me cracking up my face hurts. sorta reminded me of “Liar, Liar,” one of the few movies i can tolerate jim carrey in & appreciate his humor. thx for this :-)
We love you, Swimmie, oh yes we do…We love your writing, everything you do… When you’re not on this site, we’re blue…
Wonderful! How about having the framily in the truth zone for as long as they can stand it.
Honest Bette is a good way to start. I don’t think that Bette is being dishonest, but more like clueless as to what is going on inside of her head and heart. She has emotions running wild inside mostly for Tina.
Wouldn’t that make for a hilarious episode..I love your writing and can’t wait for more.
Now that was a hoot! Very interesting twist at the end with Bette having the 2nd interaction with an old woman and deciding she needed to come clean. Marvelous job!
It kind of reminded me of “Liar, Liar” with Jim Carey, as well. How awesome would it be to have B & T actually be honest & real with one another about their feelings? **sigh***It would be amazing. This was fun to read. Thanks.
Love that is was a fream,but it sure did wake Bette up thanks
She aren’t neither!!! Now, what I would like to see is Tina being honest, for once…I know Bette is messed up now, she is afraid..but she has always been with and for Tina, the affair was a mistake, but she always loved Tina… and the same has not been true in reverse.
Hey JKS, Brilliant and husterical. If only IC had decided to go that way. I think that the show will be a whole lot messier than your wonderful version. Perfection! Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
hilarious…
ROFLMAOOOOO!!!! This was freaking brilliant! You had me in tears. Thanks JKS!
That was so hilarious… just left me similing. Thank you
xD
So Good!!!
That was the most hilarious and spot on writing I have read! Thank you, I really wish Bette had to tell the truth like Jim Carrey did in “Liar, Liar.” Love it, thanks for posting.
this was hilarious, thanks for the laughter
k, why in hells name would you have wanted to post under a different name. that was fucking hysterical. i loved it. thx
That was funny and great, love it. Thanks J!
