Bette was in the bedroom trying to get herself around for work, not an easy task with the way her head was pounding. God, she needed to get this drinking under control. She was really getting tired of feeling like ***** every morning. Her patience was running thin as she waited for Tina to finish up in the bathroom. She just wanted to take a shower and get the ***** out of house before her and Tina went another round. She didnt have the desire or energy to argue with Tina this morning.
As Bette was showering, Tina was in the kitchen making breakfast, a peace offering so to speak. She knew she had messed up big time with Bette, as never in their seven years together had she seen her as hurt as she had been last night. Never had she spoken to Tina the way she had last night. Tina had tossed and turned all night as Bettes words rang in her ears. She needed to do damage control this morning before things got any further out of hand.
Bette got dressed, grabbed her bags and headed to the door for a quick getaway, however, she failed to be quick enough.
Tina: Bette, I made breakfast. You really should eat something this morning.
Bette: I am not hungry.
As she continues to the door, Tina comes around from the kitchen.
Tina: Bette I really think we need to talk.
Bette: Isnt that ironic. Ive been trying to get you to talk for what, two ***** months now, and suddenly you decide we need to talk. Well, Im sorry, but I dont think there is anything more to say. Besides if I need to know something I can always ask Helena ***** Peabody or one of the girls, since they seem to know everything before me anyway.
Tina: I am sorry Bette, I didnt mean
Bette breaks in.
Bette: Sorry huh. Well, once again Ive got you beat hands down as Ive been sorry to the point of begging and pleading for whatoh yeahtwo ***** months and it didnt get me anywhere.
Tina: Bette, please lets not do this. I didnt mean to hurt you.
Bette: Hurting? No I dont believe that is possible. You see, in order for me to be hurting, that would require me to have a heart, something I no longer possess since someone so kindly ripped it from my ***** chest.
Tina: Bette, I am sorry. I should have never brought Helena to the party and I should have told you sooner about the baby. I was just so angry with you.
Bette: Anger, now there is something I can comprehend. You see I happen to be very angry with you right now, which is why I think this talking idea of yours in not such a good idea.
Tina: Bette if we dont talk now, things are just going to get worse. We cant keep doing this to each other.
Bette: So you are suddenly a communications guru.
Tina: Bette, that is not fair.
Bette: Oh, you are so right. Havent you heard, nothing is fair.
Tina: Okay Bette. Maybe you are right. Maybe you need some time to cool off before we discuss things any further.
Bette: Wow, now there is a concept. Let me check my calendar. Do you have some time free, in lets see, how about 2010.
Tina: Fine Bette. I cant force you to talk to me. Just know that when youre ready to talk I will be here.
Bette; I just dont see any reason to talk, I mean werent you are always the one telling me that actions speak louder then words. Well, I got it. Your actions have spoken immensely. Lets see. Would you like me to replay them for you? You suddenly seem to be with Helena Peabody. You are 14 weeks pregnant, which means you were pregnant before I fucked up with Candace.
Ive got a great idea. Lets talk about that. Why dont you tell me who the ***** father is? Was it a one night stand, is it someone you are serious about, someone from the Center maybe? To think all of this time I have been beating myself up over the mistake I made with Candace, when all along you fucked around on me before Candace had ever even entered the picture. So who is he Tina? You want to talk so ***** bad, tell me who youve been sleeping with.
Tina: Bette, I wont even dignify that with an answer.
Bette: Oh, I get it. We are doing selective talking. We can only talk about those things that you wish to discuss. Why didnt you say so in the beginning. I could have been at work already.
Tina: God Bette, you can be so damn infuriating sometimes. I havent fucked anyone, okay. I used Marcus Allenwoods sperm. I didnt tell you because I didnt want to get your hopes up and then fail. I planned on telling you as soon as I knew for sure it worked and that everything was okay. But then you fucked Candace and our life was turned upside down. Are you happy now? I thought I was protecting you. I didnt think you could handle another miscarriage.
Bette: Let me get this straight. We were still together and yet you decided to inseminate yourself and keep it from me. And I am to believe that you did that for me. When you knew how much I was hurting, you knew how badly I wanted to have a child with you, you knew how hard I was taking the miscarriage. Dont you think, just maybe, that would have brought us closer together? Sharing something we both wanted so badly and both had been so devastated over. Do you think Candace would have even been an issue if I had known that we were going to have a family?
Tina: Dont you think that is something I have asked myself over and over again? I cant change that Bette. What is done is done. We need to figure out where we go from here.
Bette pauses, takes a deep breath and finally concedes.
Bette: Okay, Tina. So we need to talk. But if it is okay with you, I would rather do it tonight. I could use some time to process some things.
Finally Tina feels as though she has gotten through. She just hopes that Bette doesnt build her wall back up while she is at work.
Tina: Thats fine Bette: Ill be waiting for you tonight.

Really great – you moved them from anger to communication – keep going, please.
Excellent dialogue, Shades. Write on, I say :)
You write Bitchy Bette well–let’s see how she calms down enough to have a rational, albeit emotional, conversation with Tina, who has a lot of explaining to do herself. Aside, please don’t drop that other story of yours…I am so enjoying it too.
wow you are getting the poor readers all steamed up and over excited which is great i agree with em all the story is great your great and god isnt Bette sooo great ahem!

THANK YOU! I think this is a very important point in defense of Bette!!
Bravo!!!! You bring up great points. I like the fact that you have Bette standing up for herself. Bravo once more
I realize that the powers that be had to do something on the show to address Laurel Holloman’s real-life pregnancy, but to drum up this far fetched storyline that Tina secretly impregnated herself is totally wrong. I truly believe that Bette’s cheating would not have taken place at all. I’m loving your take on the situation. I was very angry with Tina after Sunday’s episode.
Even though I am dismantled by Bette’s and Tina’s relationship, even though I have some anger towards Tina and I think it would be nice to see them talk it out instead of fighting it out. please keep it coming.
Great!!! i am awaiting for your next post!!! 5 shiny stars :D
I’m glad you decided to continue this. I love it!
I say keep it coming!
as always great story..i think everyone is upset however its always a hope for Bette and tina but there´s so much hurt and pain to forget..please post soon..
Your writing is great and you have put obvious thought into Bette’s point of veiw. However, I completely disagree about Bette being the victim and Tina going out of her way to hurt Bette. Though your chapter is very inspiring to me, I am very tempted to write Tina’s side.
Man this is awesome and excited chapter. Bette and Tina finally have a talk and can’t wait to see what happen next. Please post soon the next one, thank you!
You write with such depth it blows me away………This chapter is inspiring…..and very well written:)
N.B: Tina’s side would be a great p.o.v. piece, either you or giasony should definately do that??……Eagerly awaiting wots next…..Thanks:)
This is just so good you are writing straight from the heart and it’s breaking my heart that i won’t be able to read any more as I am going away for a week (Easter). I look forward to reading the next update as soon as I get back. For those of us who can’t see the new series yet this is a great story to make us feel a part of it and goes deeper into their feelings filling in all the gaps.Thanks.
Bette is certainly saying all the things most of us are thinking
Luv this take on the story so far. Need to see Tina’s backbone coming to the fore now. We all know she can give as good as she gets and not let Bette have everything her own way.
More real soon please.
You’ve captured them perfectly. I can see this play out like this. Great job please continue!
OMG this is really good your writing is great and I’m always good story, I hope that Bette and Tina talk there problem this is getting better story thank you Pls. post soon.
thanks for another chapter. i’m ready for bette to fall off her high horse!
This just keeps getting better. Yes, keep it coming.
Talking is good…keep it up!
Tina — leave, and take half the house. I like the writing, but I’m not buying the “Bette as victim,” all things considered.
I don’t see this as a Bette is a victim situation. But let’s face it, why on earth would you bring someone you just meet like 2-3 hours prior, to a bachlorette party, knowing your wife will be there, after you just commented that morning about working things out between the two of you? I realize Bette was definately wrong with the cheating and wrong for her comments about Tina going after the foundations money, but I’m curious to why Tina never mentioned that she was writing a proposal for the Peabody. And since know one (the community) knew that the foundation was taking a new direction (social services versus art) why she would apply for the peabody. Tina had to know that as soon as she saw that the CAC didn’t get jack that Bette was going to be furious. Not saying she deserved to yelled at, which Bette tries to apologize for later. What does she find out? THat Tina is with child, and she’s the last to know yet again. Joyce had no problem looking around the house trying to figure out “child support” Tina never corrected her, yet she couldn’t tell Bette? hmmm. Just out of curiousity can anyone figure out the time-line of when Tina gets pregnant? Does she do it during the week of the provacations opening or before? and if it’s before, wouldn’t she have been pregnant when she was at Dinah Shore party? I’m just curious, cuz the show is being a bit confusing with time-line. Shades, I really think you’re doing an excellent job conveying emotions in this one. Cuz let’s admit it, when Bette argues with Tina and Bette is actually in the right (i.e. donor arguement of using Marcus’ sperm) Tina usually acts like she doesn’t understand where Bette is coming from. I am a fan of Bette and Tina, and to have watched Bette cheat then these season 2 episodes have been rough, but anyone else think Tina doesn’t seem able to be asserative at all with anyone? First Joyce then Helena, crazy. Hope you continue this story and Exposed, both are well written!
I am glad you continued I would really like to see how they work through this instead of guessing like on the show.. Post soon great job and thanks for taking the time
Keep Going…This is amazing. Bette finally gets to voice how she feels. GREAT WRITING Shades
keep the drama coming please.
I’m don’t mean to portray Bette as a victim. Bette knows damn well that she fucked up big time and she is responsible for the mess their lives are in. But she is only human. And thanks to IC they are both dealing with a lot of pain and a lot of anger, that they are never allowed to convey to each other. We need to see more open exchanges from these two then we are getting in season 2. Giasony, I would love to see your take on Tina’s POV. I am at a total loss with Tina right now. She is no where close to the Tina we were introduced to in season 1. I eagerly await to get to know the Tina of season 2. Thanks for all the comments, I guess I’ll have to continue.
Girl you are seriously nailing these characters. I could see that whole scene in my head. They should consider using that. Girl, please keep it coming it’s therapy for all of us!!:)
Hoowee. You really manage to convey the anger. In the back of her mind Bette has to be just as angry with herself as what she did has set all this Helena stuff in motion. Glad to see that you are going to continue with this. I will look forward to it eagerly.
Excellent!!!!! Great writing…I wonder how willing Bette will be to communicate after she get’s home…..hmmm…I wonder if Helena is completely out of the picture….good stuff!
This is so dead on. I can see Bette and Tina playing this out. I think you’ve captured Bette perfectly, regardless of who is right or wrong, Tina did some crappy things to Bette in this last episode.
DRAMA -Bring it!!
