Can’t Help Falling In Love Chapter 29
Bette looked into Tinas bright eyes and she watched the first tear of what she knew would be many fall. She didnt want to do this. She didnt want to hurt Tina anymore.
Bette: Ok. I think thats fair.
Tina: Good.
Bette went to kiss Tinas neck when she pulled away.
Bette: Whats wrong?
Tina: Bette I need you to leave. I cant have you spend the night tonight.
Bette: Did I miss something?
Tina: No its just..ugh! Bette if you dont show tomorrow I will be heartbroken. And it will be worse if you spend the night here with me. If we make love and then you dont show. Can you understand that?
Bette stood without hesitation.
Bette: I do.
She walked quickly toward the door.
Tina: Im sorry. I want you to stay. I need you to stay. But I cant be dependent on you.
Bette: I understand that T. I do. But I need you to understand what I am going through. I have already promised myself to you and only you.
Tina: You have?
Bette: well, in my head I have. I dont want anyone but you.
Tina: I dont want anyone else either babe.
Bette wanted to grab Tina right then and there but she refrained.
Bette: I gave back my Tony award.
Tina opened her mouth to speak but Bette cut her off.
Bette: And I know it wasnt really mine to begin with but it was in my apartment and on my mantle, which makes it partially mine! Im trying T. And even If I dont show up tomorrow, I need to know that you KNOW that Im trying.
Tina: I do know.
Bette: But is knowing enough?
Tina looked at the floor then back to Bette.
Tina: No.
Bette turned so Tina wouldnt be able to see the tears in her eyes. This had been one of the most emotional days Bette Porter had ever experienced and she was hoping to lean on Tinas shoulder tonight. Not go home alone. The last thing she wanted was Tina to see her cry. She didnt need her pity or anyone elses. Bette reached for the doorknob and turned it slowly. She felt Tinas hand on her lower back and once more Bette turned to face her love.
Tina: I really do hope I see you tomorrow night.
Tina leaned in and whispered in Bettes ear.
Tina: If its meant to be, it will be.
She placed a sweet kiss on Bettes ear, which sent shivers down her spine. It took every ounce of strength she had to not grab Tina and hold her close.
Bette: Goodnight.
Tina: Goodnight.
Bette walked out of Tinas apartment and started down the steps. When Tina finally worked up enough courage to close the door she felt the tears she had been holding in, race down her cheek. She ran to the window and watched as Bette Porter walked away again. Tina thought maybe she was putting too much pressure on her. Tina knew who she was and liked who she was; she deserved someone who felt the same way. Someone she could run to even if it was in public. She was certain Bette wouldnt show tomorrow. In fact she wasnt sure if Bette would ever show again.

I love your flair for the dramatic. Look, just have Peggy call Bette and relay the invitation to her as well, including bringing Tina as her date. Write more quickly, please. I’m starting to go through withdrawl already.

My guess is that Bette will show. After much drama first. Great story Flair.
I’m biting my nails. I never bite my nails, okay that’s a lie, but you have me stressing. Need more. Like NOW!!!

Megga- AHHH! Bette BETTER SHOW! OMG, she so isn’t going to is she? You said more drama was coming. . .so many roads to take. . will Bette throw caution to the wind by publicly accepting Tina as her girlfriend? Will Bette cower away in order to maintain her stardom and leave behind the love of her LIFE? OR, will you hit her with a cab on her way to see Tina, so she doesn’t show up. . like an “affair to remember” thing? Hmmmm. . .so many choices. . .which one will you choose? Hahah, I can’t wait to read more. Thank you for the two chapters, and PLEASE keep em’ coming!
what is with you fanfic writers. are you just trying to kill us with the drama. can’ bette be strong. can’t she call peggy and have a heart to heart. tina does need to tone it down. it is scary to come out. especially in public. please post soon, i don’t think my heart can take it. loved it.
Great, some temporary production intern from Podunk, Arizona confronts the toast of Broadway and gives her an ultimatum:
“It’s Now or Never”.
Bette,”That’s Alright Mama”, they grow them a dime a dozen.
You have me on the edge of my chair!
Come on Porter you are putting your heart and Tina’s heart at risk here? Great story!
