Breathe- Chapter 8
The doctor watched the intense unspoken language pass between the two women again. She didnt fully understand what was happening, but whatever it was she hoped Bette knew what she was doing. Are you tired? Stacey asked, trying to draw the women back to her, back to this room.
Tina kept her eyes locked on Bettes, having heard the doctor but wanting to talk to the woman still holding her hand. I am. I have been painfully tired all day. I have slept for hours, and still Im exhausted. Bette, she asked her voice quieting as she blushed at the feeling of saying Bettes name. Why am I so tired? why am I here?
Bette paused, studying Tinas beautiful face while staying in the moment of their eyes. She wouldnt lie. Not to Tina.
Im not sure T, thats why I brought you here. I have a hunch, but hunches are theories without evidence or proof. They are wrong as often as they are right. Bette turned to her friend and asked Stacey, do we have some results?
Stacey nodded and wondered how she was going to share the results with Bette privately if Tina refused to let her leave the room.
Bette gathered Tinas hand now in both of hers, and embraced it in almost a hug, as if all the security and support she had to give could be transferred through this one point of touch.
Tina, I need to talk to Stacey. Some of these results are about you, and I promise to share that information with you. But some are about the three other women, and we need to respect their privacy, Bette stopped, hoping Tina understood. I dont want you to be alone, so a nurse is going to sit with you until I get back.
Tina weakly protested to maintain some semblance of dignity, but she and Bette both knew she was deeply grateful for this gesture. Thank you, Tina said, letting her head once again sink into the pillow. Upon hearing Tinas acceptance, Stacey went to retrieve a floor nurse.
Tina, this is Todd Beecher, Stacey said as she came back through the door a few minutes later. He is one of the best emergency room trauma nurses we have, but he could give any nurse in the hospital a run for the most requested title. We have a hard time keeping him out of the float system. Stacey offered more information than necessary to increase Tinas comfort. You will be in excellent hands.

Thank you for posting each one so soon, u know ur actually helpin me through my exams! well done u and the greater good! lol
ok now my mind is off and running, have so many question you have to answer, and bette needs to start doing her job, or they can count tina out of this case. so marcey must of come home early?? and the special shoes could be a nurse or a doctor or sometype of kicthen staff, and if they were drugged it would be easy for a women to be the killer, which I think you should make it a women, and I think it should be jenny lmao, as you can tell I’m not really of fan of hers, oh and she did kick ass on 24 so she has skillz.
Can’t wait until the next chapter, and can I have a key to bette’s house too lol
What can I say ? Wonderful. Don’t ever imagine to stop writting this story. It’ll be my death. One more time, thank you
What can I say, simply fantastic…. Looking forward to continuing.
Absolutely fabulous. You have managed to paint Bette as a well rounded character in no time. Bobbie? – looking forward to hearing about their relationship.

This story is great. I say the same damn thing every time! I love it and I can’t wait to read more!
such a compelling story line. the delicacy that you use to weave the details together is absolutely tantalizing. And in my completely unsolicited opinion, this story flat out rocks. Why have I visited this site three more times today to see if another installment has been posted. In the words of Julia Roberts “well done!”
OMG… i read every word and every chapter last night at work… my god girl this is great… i can feel the tension… i love it… so this bastard was after tina… and marcy came home first… he fucked up… he didn’t know she had a roommate… he will be back to finish the job… bette better be watch her… this guy is crazy and this will be haw they get him./… his obsesion is now to get tina… by stuffing her picture in marcy mouth… so he will be back…
i am sorry i can’t leave comment when i read at work… but thank god i can still read these great stories at work…
please continue
TAKE HER HOME BETTE….TINA HAS TO KNOW THE KILLER….THANKS FOR THE FABULOUS STORY…POST SOON…..
Sox,
Simply out, AWESOME.
I can feel the love but adore the way the mystery is deepening.
Your writing style is tremendous and the attention to the little details spell-binding.
Many thanks for this fantastic addition to the site.
Your Loyal Fan.
I love the way you depict both characters and their emerging relationship … The wealth of your story is also that they will have to start knowing and love each other (in all meanings … knowing that T is not a gay lady at the start) and in parallel, B&T will have to be in another kind of relationship: police officer and witness (where there is no room of space for personal feelings).
I am not sure I made myself clear but no matter, the story is great.
Thanks
It’s great that Bette has a friend that is up front with her, yet supportive, and compassionate. Hope Bette is able to maintain a cool deamor as she sorts the case, as well as her feelings for Tina. Tina is such a key factor in solving this case. Hope she’s able to assist Bette and her team, capture this ruthless murderer. Great story!
I feel like I have been drugged!! I am so addicted to this story. Anxiously need my next fix!! Great story.
This is such awesome story sox1…hope to find out more about “bobbie”.. will there be red herrings in future posts to keep us on our toes…i hope so…
Thank you.
“I can take you home now” I was surprised that Tina assumed that Bette would indeed take her home to Bette’s… this is a very trusting Tina!
Great post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who is bobbie give us the details in to this bette poter Please tell me she will ” let tina stay” and not push her away post soon!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome. And I am learning to really dislike the killer more and more. I think she has to know him or her too. Sox, really you should charge us money to read your work, its that good.
That was emotional!
