    Author Notes:

    Bette looked up giving her a smile that did not reach her eyes.  She leaned over and gave Tina a soft kiss.  ”I’m sorry about the craziness with Kelly.  I do respect you, I always have, even though it may not have seemed as such.  And I understand the importance of mutuality in our relationship. 

    Bette looked up giving her a smile that did not reach her eyes.  She leaned over and gave Tina a soft kiss.  ”I’m sorry about the craziness with Kelly.  I do respect you, I always have, even though it may not have seemed as such.  And I understand the importance of mutuality in our relationship.  I hope you believe me, when I say I don’t want craziness in our lives either.  I know I sometimes get absorbed in my so called ’larger than life’ world, but I’m committed to this relationship.  I love you… that has never been in question.  My world is you and Angie, not the nonsense around me.”  Bette stood and grabbed her bag.  Bette reached for the door and hesitated, wanting to say more, but knowing she had already said enough. 

    ”I love you too,” Tina whispered softly as Bette closed the door with a slow gentle pull. Tina scooted down under the covers and brought them up to her neck.  She stared at the ceiling trying to pinpoint her exact feelings about the puzzle Bette had been given.  It seemed like there were a thousand pieces without any accompanying picture.  Even with all the extra time Bette had on her hands, she could spend years trying to piece it together.  She trusted that Bette knew what she was doing, but Kelly concerned her now more then ever.   Tina let out a long breath, as she continued to think. She then closed her eyes slowly as she ruminated on two thoughts… What had Kelly wanted?  And how far would she go to get it? Tina would never ask Bette to walk away from this astonishing quest that she was given. Although, it had crossed her mind a few times as they discussed all the drama and chaos Kelly had instigated at Bette’s expense. At this point no one had gotten hurt. And it wasn’t even clear if Kelly was really trying to find out what Bette knew about the lost painting.  Tina laid listening to the stillness of the early morning trying to ease her anxiety. She didn’t want to admit it to herself, but the truth was she was finding this whole treasure hunt rather exciting.  And she enjoyed watching Bette, who was sexy as hell when in her element.  Be that as it may, with all that Bette had told her over the last few days, she was still feeling unprepared. If she was honest with herself, a bit scared for both of them.  Tina sighed again as these thoughts continued to roll through her mind. Kelly was unpredictable.  She had proven she was willing to do anything to get what she wanted.  If she was really after this painting, then Bette would be in her way.

    1. Hey Superk,

      Thank you for this chapter while you are exhausted, i can imagine that as a social worker you have a real difficult time and lots of work to do. Please try to take care of yourself and be safe!

      So much mysterie and then also the worry about Covid and that utter bitch Kelly.

      Very good that Bette and Tina talk but more important is that they continue to do that.

      I am not sure if it was wise of Tina to tell Alice that much but she is a friend and means well most of the time. Glad that Bette told Peggy, if one person can help Bette it is Peggy.

      Please try to look after yourself!

    2. Thanks for the chapter….

      I am concerned about the relationship between Bette and Tina. They are still very much living in their hurt and anguish and have made very little progress in forming any semblance of a good solid relationship. Tina is not happy that Bette will not step back from any challenge. Yet that is who Bette is and is never going to change. Bette is still anguishing about the fact that Tina was not there to support her through the Kelly crap. That is never going to change – it happened…. its done and cannot be undone. They are both wondering about what Kelly is up to, but neither will sit down and blue sky what the possibilities are and propose solutions. Both are too busy in their disappointment and angst in the other. None of this is good signs for their future.

      These two do not appear to be in a frame of mind of two newly reconciled people. The are more like an aged married couple who wonder why they decided to retire when they did. They are simply not ready to be spouses, lovers, constant companions. And I do not know if they will ever be. Both their lives are more consumed with their own thoughts than with interaction with the other. This Covid shut down could be a gift of time and a proximity to actually make some progress in their relationship…. to make plans for the future, to establish time schedules, roles in the relationship, identify triggers for problems, and most of all to be parents to Angie. Angie is reflecting her parent anxiety… her parents desire to escape home and to be out and about. The less her parents are able to deal with the confinement, the less Angie will as well.

      I really want these two to do well. I want their relationship to succeed. But the more they dwell on their fears and frustrations, the harder it will be to achieve a happy and sound relationship. Its time to forgive and move on.

      And as to Kelly Wentworth? Now that Peggy knows Kelly is snooping around looking for the painting? Ask her to do what she can to keep her away from Bette. And then let it go.

      Oh? What happened to Shane? She moved in with Angie and Bette when Tina was in New York. Haven’t seen anything about her since. Since the shut down is still in progress, I would have thought she would be still around.

      Thanks for the chapter….

    4. Thank you for the chapter!

      What happen to Tina – did her cooking skills develop into Bette’s :) I thought only one person in their family could burn something during cooking :)

      And maybe it’s me – but i think they all too obsessed about Kelly. Too many mentions about that person.
