    Author Notes:

    Can B&T and get to the point where they are willing to try again.

    During the week Bette worked at the Art College and got used to her new position as Dean and saw her friends and sister at the Planet. She swam in her pool and took yoga to stay in shape and read herself to sleep at night. She had allowed herself to be dragged out to Milk a few times with the gang but it wasn’t the same without Dana and the girls there were so young. While Bette thought she was too old for them they didn’t seem to feel that way about her, plenty of hot young women checked her out and asked her dance. Bette’s experience with the twink in New York City had taught her that she would feel lonelier if she slept with one of them than if she had slept alone but it did her ego some good to know that she was wanted.

    ****

    It was Friday night, about 9 months had passed since they separated and Bette was due any minute to pick up Angelica. Tina had bought a mess of fresh ingredients on her way home from work. Now that she was working full time and the sole adult in the house she didn’t cook the way she used to and she missed it so she decided to spend the weekend cooking stuff she could either freeze or eat throughout the week. She had left work early so she could go to the farmer’s market and the grocery store and already had a minestrone soup on the stove and a turkey meatloaf in the oven. It had started to rain, it was pouring in fact and there was a chill in the air, it was the perfect night to snuggle up on the couch with a book or watch a movie.

    Tina was no longer breastfeeding and could drink alcohol worry free so she had opened a bottle of wine. She figured she deserved the treat, it had been a long week and she didn’t have to care for Angelica early the next morning. She had packed Angelica’s bag before going to work and dressed her in a cute outfit that Bette had bought. Angelica was in her high chair eating cheerios and drinking a bottle while Tina chopped vegetables for a stew and listened to KCRW.

    1. Such a bizarre concept you have here Madcapper. Protagonists able to control themselves, be civil, consider others.. But I have to say Tina’s soup tastes a lot better when taken orally.

    7. Hey, I love Grey’s Anatomy. I don’t get showtime so I end waiting till the DVD comes out or reading what happens on this site. I think that it is funny that Tina watches that show. The women are hot on that show and very strong individuals. Back to your story, I love it and am glad to see them reconnecting. It is nice to see Bette wanting to take it slow and not just jump into bed with Tina. Bette knows that they are good together in between the sheets, now they need to work outside of the bed. I know these two can make it work again and only pray that in the real show they get that chance.

    9. I LOVE Grey’s Anatomy, and I watch L Word at 11:00…That was a great spin on it. I really do hope that you choose to continue this story. I like it very much!

    21. thanks for this great chapter… you’re definitely on the right track. I don’t think you should bother about whether the characters are believable or not (they are), because IC and her team never worry about such minor stuff, they’re sooo above that… Looking forward to reading the 2nd chapter… Oh and btw, Henry has the ugliest back I’ve ever seen, it makes me wanna puke.

    22. I think Bette did the right thing not jumping into bed with Tina. She can’t do the having-something-something-with-Tina-then-having Tina-back-then-losing-Tina-again stuff again. She really needs to stand up on her feet first. We all know Tina fancies alpha women. If she really wants Tina back, she has to be alpha again. A bit ironic, huh? I’m also wondering if Bette will have any shadow even if Tina wants to be back. Yeah, we can’t help having feelings for others. But at least, Bette went to Tina again after she knowing what she really wanted. They can’t just go back when Tina is still having feelings for men.

    26. This was a very interesting take and I’m curious where you’re going with it. I’ll be reading. I’m tinkering with a post S3 story but it’s not at all like this. (That’s what fun to me about fanfic–the different takes we all have.) Oh, also…you know I miss WestHolly. Giddyup!

    27. So proud of Bette,we all know where she wanted to be,in Bed with Tina. Let them keep talking. Maybe if they talk,and become friends the gang will let her in the outer circle but not the inner one quite yet. They were will not friends when they met, They became lover and then tryed to be friend Once you are friends and them lover you can’t go back to being friend, they do have a chance to start as friends. thanks
