    Author Notes:

    One Night Is Not Enough

    Tina glanced around the beachside eatery, still did not find either of her Porters, and turned back to her menu. She idly picked up a breadstick, and began to absently chew on it.

    This was scaring her, and she and Bette hadn’t even been on their first date yet.

    This. This relationship she and Bette were trying to salvage. It was nice, yes, it was something she really wanted, but what was it people said about getting what you want?

    The pace. The ease of it. Bette had taken the step for their reconciliation on Friday night, and it was barely Sunday night and Bette had already spent the night twice.

    She was glad, yes. Glad that Bette was comfortable enough around her to relax, and even sleep, in her presence. But in exchange for that, already she felt her emotions become dependent on Bette and Angelica’s. She wanted them to be happy. She wanted to give them what she felt they needed.

    Bette, however, was tricky. With Bette she found herself letting her guard down unecessarily, but also getting defensive at the most random things, and sometimes even deliberately playing with semantics to not completely relate herself.

    As if she’d ever been any good at keeping anything from Bette.

    She didn’t even realize it was happening until she did or said something, but the feeling always seemed to be there. It was that nagging feeling she couldn’t properly label, and sometimes she could be completely comfortable with Bette, but mostly she couldn’t help but feel insanely happy being with Bette.

    Tina glanced to her left, at the water. She remembered back when she had been working at the Center for Social Justice, dating Helena and working with children here. It had seemed so simple then, even when it really hadn’t been. Telling Bette that the baby she was carrying was their baby.

    Our baby.

    Tina frowned, as she remembered Helena’s expression upon realizing Tina wasn’t above dating Bette while also dating Helena.

    Helena had cared for her. Possibly had even loved her.

    And she still found it within her to hurt Helena. Someone she barely knew, and she’d found the way to hurt what had seemed like someone untouchable.

    1. LOL!!!!!!! Loved the Great Fry Debate. Angelica is such a cutie-pie and Tina really is great with her. “You look good enough to eat.” Fofofo I do believe Bette won that round. ;)

    5. I kind of feel like Bette’s still an outsider to the family. And the idea of separating their love life from their family life is… rotten. Bette would never become part of the family by that way.

    6. GREAT AS USAL TIFF.BRING ON THURSDAY NITE ALSO AND LOVE THE INTER ACTION GOING ON WITH TIBETTE AND ANGEL SHE IS TOOOO CUTE FOR OWN GOOD!does this mean we have to wait till thursday for another one tiff?LOL

    9. Hopefully, Tina will realize that they can’t put their love life on hold again just because Angelica is now part of their lives. Hasn’t she learned from experience? Of course they’ll have to be more discrete in front of Angelica but a little PDA is okay. Great update. Please…more.

    12. You must spend time with children. I love how you have Tina communicate with Angelica. It is just not no, but she used visual aids to allow Angelica to see for her self that she has the smaller of the two hands. Thus she has the smaller portion of the fries. This is a story that I could never pass up and one that brings a soft glow to my heart. Both Tina and Bette are growing up in their relationship to each other. Thanks for the post on this important day that we celebrate our Mothers.

    13. I don’t know why I insist on taking trips into denialville, but damnit Tiff if you are the conductor I will gladly follow! :) Angelica is so adorable in this story. I actually like your tina, quite different from the show.

    17. this story is such a delight i can never have enough of it…the best dialogs ever…angie is such a cutie and i love the way tina is with her

    22. I liked the look inside Tina’s brain and how Bette enters and shakes up her thoughts again. They will be figuring out, changing and negotiating their roles (parents, lovers, professionals, friends) for a long time to come, and in your capable hands it should be very interesting. Cute chapter. On to the date!

    24. I freakin love how you write the Porter-Kennard trio <3
      And you portray Bette's occasional confusion with the Angie/Tina unique relationship so well! She's absolutely fascinated by the special understanding those two have. And is also absolutely adorable whenever Tina is forward with her or puts her in her place lol
