    Author Notes:

    I’ll See Your Heart I’ll Raise You Mine

    "You’re just a sucker for that charm."

    "She is your daughter."

    "Wait ’til she actually tries that earnest Porter look on you."

    "What Porter look?"

    "You know, that wide-eyed, please-don’t-break-my-heart-I-love-you look you’ve got down."

    "I don’t have a look," Bette protested.

    "Must be my imagination, then," Tina laughed softly. "But, really: that kid knows how to win you over, B. She’s already figured me out, so I’d be careful if I were you."

    "I’ll keep that in mind." Bette nodded. "So have you had lunch?"

    "I had some leftovers," Tina replied.

    "Dinner?"

    "Andrea’s coming over with pizza, her parents have a dinner party kind of thing she doesn’t want to be dragged off to." Tina laughed lightly. "I’d invite you and Angelica over, but it’s completely for selfish reasons."

    "Well, Angelica and I don’t have plans. Would you or your babysitter mind if we join you?"

    "Uh huh: you, me, our daughter and a fifteen-year-old version of Alice."

    "Sounds like fun."

    "The gang’s going to suspect something if it’ll be the second straight night you spend the night away." Tina reminded.

    "I didn’t say I was going to spend the night."

    "Must be my lightheadedness speaking, then."

    "I can if you want me to."

    "And as much as I would want you to, I think it’ll be better if you don’t do so until we at least have our first date."

    "Aw, come on."

    "We haven’t set a date for that first date, you know."

    "I’m not the one who hasn’t been on a date in over a month."

    "Hmmn. I never told you why I haven’t been on a date in fifty days, have I?"

    "No."

    "Well, let me tell you." Tina offered. "It started when my therapist and I uncovered that ever since I started having serious relationships, I’ve turned into a serial monogamist. Completely. I’ve gone from one relationship to another, practically without batting an eyelash. Then she asked if I’d been intimate with anyone since we officially separated, and I said no."

    Silver lining. "And why is that?"

    "Because I shouldn’t be using sex as an escape from my loneliness. I had to learn to like myself without the trappings of a relationship. I had to like myself."

    1. 01.58am thankyou tiff can’y wait for the pizza evening – will the alice cl,one interrogate Bette, does she have her own agenda, will B& T get to talk?

    2. That was so precious and I loved every minute of it. Loved the way they engaged each other after Tina said she had to lead from now on. Just perfect. Thank you. Thanks for the post. Post again sooon please.

    4. I really love the way you write dialogue. Some people are good but they drag on and on with big monologues that obviously look like something from a TV or movie script. You actually make “normal” conversations look good. Having said that, I loved the verbal volleyball they were playing toward the end.

    6. was that the fifth one or can i go to bed now? :) please keep going, you’re the only B&T I read… I like how you make things so said (know what i mean?) between them. thanks

    10. I love the diaglogue between bette and tina. I wish tina was more like this on the show. Despite my dislike for tina at the moment I have to recognize that the writers have made tina into a 2 dimensianl character that diminshes her weight in the show.

    12. Tiff…It looks like your readers are in love…with you and the story. No one writes dialogue as well as you do, IMO. There a few that come close but tonight you were spot on. I wish they communicated like this on TLW. I am going to read this chapter again just so I can smile and chuckle again.

    13. y did the convo change just when T was xplaining her being bi?????? r u gonna continue that part…or maybe I didn’t understand too well. Any which way I’m along for the ride as always with your stories!!!!!

    15. I love the banter between Bette and Tina. Even though it is serious talk it is light and fun and the two actually seem to be enjoying one another again. Only I believe this time will be better because they both know each other so well. Thank you for this great story that I hope one day to see on the show.

    27. this dialogue between Tina and Bette was very good, and this kind of talk will help to the relation! Tina said: i love you! this is great! please continue!

    29. TD, has anyone told you later how well you do dialogue and how much we love your writing? LOL. The seemingly simple lines convey so much!! I agree with pattifloatn. They both seem to be enjoying each other rather than tip toeing around each other. Thanks for the update. Next chapter should be fun…pizza night with mini-Alice.
