    Author Notes:

    You see there’s something you recognize

    "It’s a–" Tina glanced again at where her hand was still in Bette’s. "This is fine."

    Bette leaned forward, taking a sip of her drink. "It’s inconvenient, but I like it."

    "Sitting here quietly." Tina said.

    Bette glanced at her, then grinned at Angelica. "What about you, my li’l boo? Anything you want to share?"

    Angelica looked at her blankly.

    "You too, huh? Sitting quietly?" Bette grinned at her.

    Angelica nodded, and talked, expressively sharing with her mother thoughts and opinions that Bette did not quite understand.

    "Or not," Bette noted.

    Tina snuck a sidelong glance at mother and child, as Bette and Angelica conversed. It was precious, really, watching Bette with Angelica, the mighty and highly intellectual Bette Porter reverting to simple sentences and baby talk with her daughter.

    She’d contribute and interrupt them, but she was not only enjoying the visual, but she had declared herself to be sitting down quietly.

    Bette glanced at Tina, who was watching her and Angelica, then remembered something from last night. "I have to ask you something."

    "Hmm?" Tina asked.

    "I meant what I said."

    "What did you say?" Tina asked innocently. She had an idea of what Bette was referring to, but she had to be sure.

    "You know, telling you both that I love you."

    "No, you said ‘love you both’, there’s a difference."

    "It doesn’t count without the ‘I’?" Bette asked lightly.

    "Pretty much." Tina giggled, remembering the first time Bette had confessed the same.

    Bette looked at her. "I love you."

    Tina smiled at her. "I love you too."

    They smiled at each other, knowing despite the need for resolution for many other subjects, they now managed to say what they felt and thought.

    "We’re moving too fast." Tina warned.

    "Without being hasty," Bette pointed out.

    Tina paused.

    "What?"

    "I have so much to tell you." Tina admitted, looking at Bette. "We have a lot to talk about."

    "Yeah," Bette nodded. "I’m getting that."

    Angelica glanced from one parent to another, noticed the lack of attention in her direction, and would have none of it. She pulled on Bette’s hair, effectively breaking the vibe between her parents.

    5. This is wonderful. It makes me happy just reading it. The banter between the two, is fantastic, and then your throw in Angelica, its just what its all about. Wait till Alice finds out she’s been left out of the loop. Looking forward to your next update.

    7. I’m with everyone else. The story is great and your ability to write dialogoue is stupendous. It’s as though we are sitting on the sidelines watching as they go through their day. Thank you very much for this. Wonderful.

    9. Let’s see, Helena, Lara and now Shane know about the reconcillation efforts of Bette and Tina. Now that leaves Alice and Kit. Both of which seemed to be against Bette and Tina returning as a couple. It only seems appropriate that they are the last ones to know. I believe that you can go ahead a claim them as yours. They have been left a shell of two women on the show. You bring them to life with your story. Got to love Angelica. How she can draw out the love and togetherness of her mommas.

    11. There’s no surprise that Shane figured it out. I loved the way Tina sneaked a kiss. I only wish that they had left before Shane and Alice got there…

    12. Ah, Texas is one of my favourite group. “And when you see there’s something you recognise…Love started making sense…I always make mistakes at my expense…Love has placed a seed…And you’re the sun that shines down upon me”. I feel like I’m repeating myself each and every time I read a new chapter from you and leave the same comment. And I’m not the only one. I just love your dialogue. Yes, they still have a lot to talk about and we get to read more of TiBette’s wonderful dialogue.

    18. LOL @ Angelica pulling Bette’s hair! That makes me think of “I’m the baby! Gotta love me!” from Dinosaurs. Also loved the quick nod to the “love you” thing.

    21. Tiff..Fearing of being redundant…your dialogue is superb and your presentation of B & T is sophisticated and delightful. You’re the mack master of this genre.

    26. It’s not fast enough, Tina. I’d love to see Alice’s facial expression when she knows and finds out she’s the last one to know. lol
