Oh, T, Bette sighed as she brought the back of Tinas hand to her chest and continued stroking her forehead. I know it feels that way right now, she said, struggling to find words of comfort that Tina could hold on to and believe. This was a horrible, depraved act and it had everything to do with the kind of person he is and nothing to do with the person you are today or will be tomorrow. Time cant erase the memory, but I promise you that time will lessen your pain, time will lessen your anger and in time you will feel safe again. You just need to give it a little time.
Tina bit her lower lip, knowing Bette was right but still fearing that she was now and would forever be changed. Time Tina said quietly, too exhausted to continue but wanting Bette to know that she heard her.
After a few more minutes of comfortable silence with Bette stroking Tinas forehead and both women lost in their own thoughts but still connected, Bette asked quietly Tina, is there anyone you want me to call for you?
Tina shook her head. I have friends, but no family.
No family here? Bette tried to clarify. Sighing, Tina shook her head. No family anywhere. There should be an amendment to the constitution stipulating only children cannot have only children.
The sadness was heavy in Tinas eyes as she explained. Both my parents were only children. I guess my Mother had difficulty conceiving, so I wasnt born until they had been married almost 12 years. Obviously I had no Uncles, Aunts or Cousins, and since they were older, my grandparents all passed away by the time I was 10, Tina stopped talking and looked at Bette.
I know you think you were ever so clever and just casually steered me into a stealth interview, but you can take notes if you need to. Tina smiled and Bette once again thought it was the most beautiful site she had ever seen.
First, in order to take notes I would need my hands and Im not sure I want them back just yet, she said still stroking Tinas forehead to relieve tension. Second, my notebook means were on the record and then I couldnt tell you what an absolutely breathtaking smile you have.

Sox,
Absolutely awe inspiring!
The little details that you capture so well have made this a breath taking story. The elements of attraction have been selectively and seductively sneaked in. I am wearing a big cheesy and goofy grin at Tina’s declaration “But, I’m not gay.†I think she has denial, big time.
The way this story has developed with Bette potentially charging over the line just proves how much the heart can rule the head. And how when a chance at happiness comes your way you just have to grab it with both hands, hang on for dear life and be damned of the consequences. Usually there are many but if you are with your soul mate then any storm can be weathered.
I am sitting in purgatory, waiting for Bette’s response and the test results. Will Bette tell Tina that she was the intended victim? What is the murderer’s motive?
Given your talent and hard work, I am sure that these will be answered real soon.
Thank you for this tour de force.
Your Loyal Fan.
My mind has been working overti8me.was someone after Tina or her room mate? Why Tinas picture,was it a warning or what. I will wait for the next chapter. Thanks
“But, I’m not gay.” Oh my.
I guess I was the only one who knew she was str8, ok so I only thought that because she asked to be kissed, she sounded unsure of her self. so she has no family, but I think the foster care is the perfect set up for shane to come into your story. can’t wait to see what bette does not. and to find out what she was drugged with and what form was used.
A very great and interesting chapter. Thank you
soxey – I’m lovin’ the story.. well done! I’m a sucker for the “you’re the first woman I’ve kissed” Can’t wait to see where you’re taking them. -clammy
Great chapter as always, I wonder how Bette is going to tack the news about Tina not being gay and her being the first women she has ever kissed.
OK,,AS USUAL WONDERFUL JOB IN WRITING THIS CHAPTER, YOU ARE AMAZING..NOT GAY…(YEAH RIGHT)..PLEASE POST SOON, AND THANKS
I believe you are officially the protege of Katherine V Forrest……..great stuff.
“I’m not gay” My ass your not gay Tina, Bette would turn the straightest girl gay. I hope things start to work out and that Bette will find the basterd!!!!!!!!!!! Please post soon.

OK, I have to hurry and get to work, but I had to comment. This is sooooo great. I constantly look for your updates. Great job.
oh my god, soxy, that little I’m not gay revelation was such a surprize within your story here. You are amazing me and this story is so fine, Write on but do sleep and don’t let the bedbugs bite.
Great story, I can’t get enough! Keep writing!

Excellent Sox. Bette as a flawed character is much more interesting to me. Her emotional weakness makes her more real.
Well, I had a whole theory in my mind, but with Tina’s revelation… it kinda falls apart, lol.
Anyway, great chapter, but please, please, don’t turn it into a love story, keep the mystery coming too :)
But I know you’ll find a way to juggle with the two just fine ;)

wow.. this is my favorite story. i wait every day to read a new one so please pst soon
Tell Mr. Sox that he can’t kick you off the computer…your fans await your next installment. Better yet let me send over one of my extra laptops. That way you can write anywhere. I simply love this story.
Great story. I like how your moving it along just enough without rushing it. I know Bette will get the guy, cos she’s gotta save Tina. Tina well, girl its too late now your on your way over to the other side. Looking forward to the next update.
OK I can’t wait to fine who is the SERIAL KILLER? Please continue Thanks.
I agree with cnick It’s Kate Delafield – but better. Tina will just have to remember that “resistance is futile”:0)
To me it seems perfectly reasonable that Tina has never kissed a woman before. The trauma that she has gone through and the fact that Bette has been her life line has to affect her feelings for the brunette. I am not saying that they wouldn’t have gotten together in other circumstance, but I think Tina’s willingness to be so open with Bette is because she has been so shockingly reminded how fragile life is. That’s my take, and Sox I am like a broken record, your skill is amazing.
That was great!
