Alice: Who is it?
Tina: Bette.
Alice smiled to herself at her acting skills. Alice thought for a moment. She could be an actress, it wasn’t hard. Maybe give Bette a run for her money.
Tina: Al!
Alice: what?
Tina: What should I do?
Alice: Answer it. Talk to her. I’ll give you some space.
Tina nodded and watched as Alice walked back down toward the path.
Tina: Hello?
Bette shivered at the sound of Tina’s sultry voice.
Bette: Hi.
Tina: I’m not sure why I answered.
Bette: I didn’t think you would, but I’m glad you did.
Tina: Listen Bette, I’m sorry for not calling back.
Bette: No, it’s my fault. I should have waited to talk to you in person.
Tina: Well I should have at least said goodbye in Chicago.
Bette: Well, yeah, you got me there.
Tina smiled slightly. She turned and made her way back to the bench, settling in for what was to be a long call.
Tina: Bette, I’m not really sure what to say.
Bette: How’s Arizona?
Tina looked around.
Tina: Hot, lonely, home.
Bette: I miss you T.
Tina’s heart finally caved in allowing tears to spill from the corner of her eyes. She reached to wipe them away as quickly as they had appeared.
Bette: Don’t.
Tina moved her hand from her face in confusion.
Tina: Don’t what?
Bette: Don’t wipe them away.
Tina heard Bette’s voice getting louder and she quickly turned to see where it was coming from. Bette stood right behind her, her eyes glassy and red.
Bette: It’s my job to wipe them away.
Tina thought for a minute that her heart stopped. It took her that long to realize that this was not a dream. Bette was truly standing right next to her.
Bette had come around the back of the bench and kneeled in front of Tina. She reached her slender fingers up and wiped away the lonely tear that strolled down the blondes flushed cheek.
Tina: What are you…
Bette pressed her finger to Tina’s soft lips.
Bette: I came to apologize.
Tina: How did you…
Bette smiled.
Bette: Alice and Alex.
Tina nodded her head.
Tina: Wow.
Bette: Yeah.
Tina reached her hands out and wrapped them in Bette’s familiar curls pulling her closer.
Bette: Can I kiss you?
Tina: I was hoping you would.
Bette placed her hungry lips on Tina’s, softly devouring every inch of them. The kiss was sweet and full of desperation.
Tina: I missed those lips.
Bette: They missed you.
Tina smiled.
Tina: Bette, I just…
Bette: No, let me go first please, or I’ll lose my nerve.
Tina obliged.
Bette: I am so sorry Tina. I am sorry to have hurt you the way I did. I’m not used to making myself vulnerable to someone. What I didn’t realize was that I was safe with you. You would never hurt me. I know that.
Tina dropped her head.
Bette: No look at me please.
Tina slowly lifted her eyes to meet Bette’s.
Bette: I am trying to change, no, I will change. I promise. I want to be everything you ever wanted me to be.
Tina: I just want you to be you.
Bette: Tina, I realized in these 2 weeks apart that I couldn’t be without you. It breaks my heart a little more every morning to wake up with out you next to me.
Tina: Bette…
Bette: Anyway what I’m trying to say is, come back with me. Live with me. I need to know that I will get to come home to your arms everyday and night. Just come home with me. I love you Tina. I always have, I always will.
Tina: Bette…

I’ll be back as soon as I’ll end to savour it slowly…
Thanks in advance !
you are NOT right for ending it there… and that shall remain the only visible comment for me on this story ;-)
Well, Ms. Flair, i am way behind in my fanfic but you have been suggested to me by many, many individuals. I look forward to reading every word you have written!
say ‘yes’! loved the update!
so sweet…aww…
that was beautiful and sweet. tho we have 1 more and then your sequel. well you know ill be reading it. thanks,
I Can’t Help Falling In Love you, flairforthedramatic.. you made my day
“I love you Tina. I always have, I always will.” Aww…
Ahhh, a cliffhanger like that and the knowledge that there is only one more chapter. Evil woman! Anyway, count me in for the sequel, I’ve loved every chapter of this story. Will Alex and Alice be in the sequel too?
Flair, that was a “Calgon take me away” kind of a moment. Beautiful chapter.
Oh I almost forgot, you have to give me your kiss(es) cause i promise to continue reading all sequels from you;)
oh man your such a tease….i hope Tina say something good to Bette that was beautiful i love it and Bette is soo cute..i almost die when i read that story will be end..thanks god i continue to read before i pass out..lol..i know that will be a great sequel..thanks Flair your ROCK!!!!
Great chapter. It’s so nice. Thanks. I almost cry. Please I can’t wait for the next chapter. Hope you posted soon.
“It’s my job to wipe them away”… my goodness, that moment just melt me like a sugar in a cup of hot tea !! Irresistible… I’m still melting… how sweet…
My lady with so much Flair and writing talent, OF COURSE you have to draw the curtain on the next act !! SOON !!
What would happened to me without a sequel ?? I’d be an awful “drama reader”, as simple as that.
Sooo… please don’t beg or kneel anymore in front of your SO numerous hungry readers : for me, I promise to read and comment forever !
So I immediately subscribe for a season ticket. Qui m’aime me suive ! (lol)
Few last words yet…
At first for you : from the bottom of my heart, million of thanks for such an intense drama story, haunting, beautiful, full of charm and moving.
It was a true daily regal – and I’m looking forward this SOOO wanted sequel, ready to applause, cry and laugh ! Draw the curtain, please, quickly ! ^_^
Endly, a word for our delicious Alex : don’t try to avoid the sequel, we need you and we love you !
… but… could you please add the great Judy Garland in your list of inspirations, between Norma Desmond (how I adore this movie, my god…) and Bette “Margo Channing” Davis ? I’m such a huge admirer of Judy, so that’s my highly selfish wish here ! Thanks, Alex, see you soon !
UUUGGGHHH!!!!!!!! Hello! I feel like I’m hanging from a cliff’s edge. Post again soon, please.
you are killing us the way you leave us hanging…..great job, i luv it!!!!!!!
so the next chapter will be the last one???? I can’t wait for the sequel than…
I absolutely love this story, I so love this Bette and Tina. And as for NY I can wait until I fly across the pond and meet up with you guys next month!!
Ahh the cliffhanger might kill me! I hope Tina is about to say something good, in fact she better after what Bette just said to her. Can’t wait to see what happens! Please post the last *tear* chapter soon, but don’t worry I’ll be reading the sequel for sure!
I’m just glad you got them together before you left us hangin’. It’s good that Alice is excited about a possible relationship of her own, and that Tina is as thoughtful about her friend, as Alice is to her. It’s nice to have such great loyal friends.
Chances are that your sequel will have more than the usual followers…Need you ask if we want a sequel…If you didn’t I’d have to hunt you down in NYC, and believe me I’m from Northern Canada and that’s a long way, but I’d do it…..So PLEASE write, soon, long, frequent….and now!!! THANKYOU
That’s it.. Where is the pose? I can’t take these cliffhangers anymore!
Flair,
Thank you for beautifully bringing Bette and Tina back together.
After all of the anger and hurt it was truly awesome to see them together and rekindling their love.
Making them admit how they felt lost and incomplete without each other was inspired.
Please post the last chapter soon as I am sure the a ride in to the beautiful sunset is required.
Only allowed as the sequel will appear soon after as I hooked on your flair of all things fiction.
Can’t wait and let the good times roll.
Your Loyal Fan.
Oh My what a great tale you weave. I have been in love with this from the moment I read you story and you have never disappointed. I love the joy, angust and back to joy again as you have wound us on this merry ride. Your characters are alive with wit and breath that makes them so real to me as I read about them. Thanks
Theatre people are soo dramatic! Believe me, I know! Haha It’s great that Bette was able to say all that she wanted to. Can’t wait to see what Tina has to say. You have no idea how happy you made me when you said that you’ve already got a sequel in the works! WOO-HOO!!!
WHy do I get the feeling that there is a big BUT coming? lol! I hope Tina doesn’t break Bette’s heart after she’s made herself so vulnerable. This was such a sweet post, thanks!

If you throw out kisses for each chapter you will write to each person that does comment then I dont believe you will have any lips left. I will comment, Save your kisses for you LOYL. Love your story.
AHHHHH my heart my heart, It seems all the authors are putting the readers in a BT Purgatory..and U are no different! (shame shame) I don’t mean to get greedy, cross a line, or tell you what to do, but Sister I want an NC17 from you!!! You know your stuff and here’s a kiss MMMUAHHHHHHHH
so sweet!!!!Can’t wait for the next one!!
awwwwwwwwwwwwwww, so sweet. so what’s this sequel gonna have in store i wonder? there’s no doubt that i will read it because i am an absolute junkie for your work! keep it coming flair!
You are the queen of the cliffhangers! This story is endlessly romantic, and I don’t want it to end. But I want closure.
That’s a conundrum, isn’t it?
What’s a Techie to do??????
Love all your ladies of the theatre. No Jessye? No Leontyne? Denyce, (http://www.denycegraves.com) maybe??? Mama!!!!
And don’t forget: Audra, Phylicia, Chita and Rita!!!
Flair..you dog. Your name suits you. Only one more chapter..boo hoo.
But I’ll take the season tickets to the sequel. As long as they stay together and you get rid of these heart-stopping, molar crunching endings.
Just kidding, your stories wouldn’t be your stories without them. Great job!
YAY!!! Could you drag it out anymore? lol of course, you know that you cant disappoint everyone here who is begging DYING for a happy ending. But if theres a definite sequel ahead, then you do have room for a cliffhanger of an ending, dont ya? teehee dont tell the others I said that. I love cliffhangers but I also love happy, gooey, sobby, goddamn lovey endings. Im with techgal, Im torn! Keep writing, you’re fabulous woman!
You are a mean tease from New York leaving a fellow city girl hanging like that.Can’t wait for the last chapter and then your new story.
Awesome as usual.. can’t wait for the next chapter..
This chapter is reall moving! Thank you so much for sharing such a splendid TiBette story with us!!
But I guess I’m a bit angry with Tina. Why only she could go to Chicago for 2 weeks? Then what’s wrong with Bette to go back to NYC? Bette’d done so much for her and their relationship. What did she do? Why couldn’t she even understand or try to help with Bette’s difficulties? Staying with her without a job and dream is the best thing for Bette?
What did I ever do to you? Ya gotta stop with the cliffhangers. you are still trying to kill me. Great update.
Only one more chapter to go! And you left us hanging like this. If you didn’t promise us a sequel I would be very disapointed. I have loved your story all the way!
Damn this is beautiful and yes Tina will come home with you Bette, love what Bette said to Tina and let see what’s Tina reaction. Oh love what Bette tell about her play softball in school, is so funny. Please post soon, thanks!
