    Author Notes:

    Waking up and getting up has never been easy.

    Tina smiled, and moved closer to Bette, settling herself against Bette’s shoulder as they watched Angelica, who seemed to have found a fascination with Bette’s top, a blue fitted shirt that had already been deemed unsightly by the brunette.

    "What do you think she’s thinking?" Bette whispered to Tina.

    "If it’s anything like what I’m thinking, how to get rid of that top." Tina replied. She looked up at Bette. "Or, if she knew how to read, thinking, she’s my what?"

    Bette laughed softly, causing her daughter to look up at both of them, with an unamused look at the interruption. "Whoops."

    "My God she looks like you," Tina told Bette.

    "No, she looks like you," Bette replied, grinning, as Angelica pouted at them, as if commanding her parents to behave.

    Tina straightened, and planted a kiss on Bette’s cheek. "I’ll miss you today."

    "Me too," Bette replied.

    "Babe?"

    "Hmm?"

    "Maybe we should tell Kit."

    "Yeah," Bette laughed softly. "Want to hear something funny?"

    "Sure."

    "I actually told her I was dating someone."

    "And?"

    "Well, by the end of my prattle she was looking at me like I’d lost my mind, so I assume she figured out I was talking about you."

    "You didn’t say outright that it was me?"

    "Tee? My sister? Right now not your biggest fan." Bette pointed out.

    Tina sighed. "I wonder what else she’ll have to say once we officially tell her."

    Bette glanced at her. "I think I should tell her, while you think about what to say to the obvious questions."

    "Obvious questions?" Tina repeated.

    "The boyfriend. The man lust. The cheating." Bette said softly.

    "Oh. Those obvious questions," Tina nodded in understanding.

    "What did you think I was referring to?" Bette asked.

    Tina shrugged. "When we’re going to move back together. If we’re going to get married this time. Am I sure about this."

    "Oh." Bette paused. "Those are obvious, aren’t they?"

    "Yeah."

    "Tee?"

    "Yeah?"

    "Do you want to?"

    "What?"

    "Move back in. Get married."

    "Yes."

    "I sense a ‘but’ in there."

    Tina sighed. "It took you a year of dating before you asked me to move in. Two and a half before marriage came up."

    Bette held Angelica closer to her, bracing herself to what Tina was going to say. "And?"

    "And I want us to pace ourselves." Tina smiled weakly. "I mean, we haven’t even told our friends yet."

    "So we will."

    "Babe?"

    "Yes?" Bette asked.

    Tina looked at her. "Don’t rush this. We’re fine. We’re together. Let’s not play with fire and risk ruining this."

    Bette smiled weakly. "I just… I really like this."

    "I know." Tina kissed her softly. "Me too."

    Bette kissed the top of Angelica’s head, pressing her lips solemnly to the head of curly brown hair. She turned to Tina. "I should get going."

    "I know," Tina replied, simply smiling at her.

    Bette smiled back, despite not knowing the reason. "What?"

    "One of these days, can we not be responsible?" Tina asked.

    Bette smiled. "I’d like that."

    1. 2nd post. Your writing style is so comfortable for the reader. You’re funny, clever, snarky, tende, loving, timid…just plain human. Each chapter is like returning to meet an old friend. Pure delight and happiness when I’ve seen that you’ve posted. Agree with techgal. Never end their story.

    5. A pleasure as always, TD. Now you know I’ve become your loyal fan regardless of ratings, but to be perfectly honest, I for one would in no way be adverse to you giving us an NC-17. In fact, I might rather enjoy it. I am NOT a perv!

    6. Did I tell you how much I like this story? It’s fantastic and I always know that Bette and Tina are going to be OK when they’re are in your capable hands. Thanks tiff.

    7. Hi Tiff, as always, thanks for the wonderful chapter. I think that Bette is going to have to take the brunt of Kit’s reaction and remind Kit that she, as in Bette, has been no angel, and ultimately, all of Tina’s behaviors stem from her interactions with one carpenter.

    12. what a nice surprise to have you post at this hour :) i was re-reading Reprise and you mentioned there were 2 NC-17 chapters? i can’t find them :( have they been removed?? i think i just sounded like a perv!

    14. hey loving Chandelier and lmao…noting starbursts query… so glad that I’m not the only potential perv, asking about the NC17 chapters which are supposed to be at ‘Reprise’ which I’ve done a marathon reading on, great storytelling with or without NC 17 by the way.

    15. I have no idea how I missed ch 34, but I went back and read it this morning. Wow. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again. I enjoy R and NC-17 chapters definitely, but even moreso I enjoy all the others. Mindless sex does not a story make. That would be a PWP and I have to have a plot or I’ll get bored. I like how you can convey the feelings between B&T without getting graphic. And now onto this chapter. I loved the morning-after laziness, and the inclusion of Angelica made for a sweet family moment. Now, was it Angelica who yelled “Boo!” or was that actually Bette? hehe “eejit.” So cute.

    16. Love this story! PLEASE update soon…and feel free to start your next chapter so that the characters are going through a friday night…you know so that they have the whole weekend for that marathon.

    17. I can’t help sounding redundant. You are an amazing writer. I just love this story. I reread in order to savor every delicious morsel of dialogue. Are you happy that Beckham saved the day for England?

    21. That’s tender moment. When will Tina suddenly realise that she’s too in love with Bette to be afraid of taking those risks again? Looking forward to it.

    22. Each time you post I go back and read a couple of chapters previous to the new one. Each time I fall more in love with this story. I can feel all the love that these 3 share with each other. I also feel their fear, but knowing that they are working to becoming the loving family that both want so badly. I now feel like my day will be a good one.
