    Author Notes: I am publishing this story in honor the world of fan fiction writing and to celebrate the completion of my seventy-fourth year on this earth. I would like for all those who are readers and enjoy fan fiction to try your hand at writing a story. You will find that it is not as easy as one would imagine. However, it can be one of the most self-gratifying experiences one can have by being creative and producing something that perhaps other may enjoy. My thanks to all those who read and those who comment. Let me know what your think as this my last story about Bette and Tina.
    Summary:
    Preface. Basis for the story. Chapter 1 - Tina and Carrie visit Los Angeles to tell Angie about their engagement.

    And until Tina broke the news that she had accepted Carrie’s proposal, she always held out hope that Tina would reach deep in her soul and find that she belonged with Bette.  She hoped that Tina would give her an opportunity to change things, to become the partner she loved and needed. She had always been willing to give Tina anything she desired which she could achieve.  She just needed to be asked.  The problem has traditionally been that Tina wishing to avoid conflict, had bottled up her hurt, pain and unfulfilled desires until she felt that escape from the situation was the only answer. When the decision to fight or flee, Tina’s modus operandi is to flee.  This has left Bette with little opportunity to fight for the relationship with Tina. It also left Bette with a feeling of guilt that she had failed the woman she loves and caused the rift in their relationship once again. Bette’s greatest problem is that she has no clue as to what it was specifically that had driven Tina out the door as she had never said what motivated her to make the decisions she made. And Bette was still grieving between the stages of anger and reconciling herself to the fact that Tina truly was no longer a part of her life except as the co-parent to Angie.

    Two weeks after the wedding announcement to Bette, Tina and Carrie arrived at the Porter home just after lunch on a Saturday.  Angie had spent the night at Jordi’s but was due home around 1:00.  Bette answered the door and invited Tina and Carrie in.

    Bette:  Good afternoon.  Come in, Come in.  How was your flight?

    Tina:  It was good.  We had to get up really early. But we got some sleep on the way.

    Bette:  Hello Carrie, how are you?

    Carrie:  Very well thankyou…

    Bette:  Can I get you some coffee or some tea?

    Tina:  I’d love some tea…you Carrie?

    Carrie:  Tea is fine.

    Bette:  Why don’t we sit at the dining room table.  Angie is expected any minute now so we can have this conversation.

    Tina:  Yes…how are you feeling about this?

    Bette:   Me?  Fine…But I think you should do all the talking.  After all this is your announcement.

    1. Hey Martha,

      Good to see you back.

      I’m in for the journey you will take us..

      So far if I’m honest i find Tina selfish, now i know they always have had trouble to communicate but to just leave, file for divorce without even giving Bette an explanation or a chance to work on their marriage, not showing up when Kit died, only a little note, very very harsh.

      What did Tina and Carrie expect, that Angie would be happy? She doesn’t have Tina much in her life and now with the marriage announcement i would react the same way and big applaus for Bette pointing out what she thinks is the reason why Angie reacted that way. Are Tina and Carrie that blind and selfish?

      Look forward to the next chapter, i can’t promise to always comment but will try to read it when you update. Promise me there will be a happy Tibette ending, if not I’ll not read it, I’m a diehard Tibette fan and with the spare time i have i can’t invest that in a well written story that doesn’t end with Tibette together.

      • Bibi28,

        Thanks for your comment. I will deliver on your wish.

        Angie’s response to Tina and Carrie’s announcement in Gen Q was always a mystery. When Tina is living in Toronto, when did Tina see Angie? And in the early teens when children are transitioning from childhood to adulthood, these are the years of big change. And with a part time relationship with one of your parents, that relationship will change. No relationship is going to maintain its closeness with telephone conversations and occasional visits. Anyone whose parents were divorce during their childhood years know this intuitively. Yet, Gen Q assumed the opposite.

        Thanks for reading.

    2. Welcome back, Martha! Very happy to see your story posted. I recently reread your epic Ten Years story. Thank you keeping the site viable during this traumatic time. A little escape has been needed.

      Now to your current post. Tina has got to be the most selfish person in the universe. She surely can’t think that bringing another so called parent into Angie”s life is `a good thing. contrary to her feelings that Bette was taking much so much space, It
      looks like she gave Tina more rope than she deserved. Its was unforgivable for her to avoid Kit’s funeral. So selfish for her to just walk knowing the importance of Kit in Angie’s and Be1te life. Then to blow back in town like nothing happened is crass. even Carrie sees that no good end is going to come with her decisions.

      Thank you gain for posting. Happy Birthday Too.

      I didn’t intend for Tina to appear selfish, but obviously that is how you and Bibi28 see her. So, I may have screwed that up a little. It was my intention to show that Tina has so little involvement in Angie’s life that she simply had no clue as to how Angie would respond. She simply does not know her child as she believes she does. Tina and Angie get along well when they are together, and they do truly love each other. Tina just fails to realize that as time goes on and with limited contact, people change. People develop different interest and have experiences which causes people to change their perspective and approach to life. If Angie had a fairy god mother, the one thing she would wish for is that her parents were still married and lived with her in the same house. She wants them together. But that is not what the reality is for her.

      I also wanted to show that this response was somewhat of a surprise to Bette as well. But once she saw it, she knew the reason for the response.

      Thank you for the comment. I hope you stay with this story. I am posting the first few chapters as they are short.

      And thank you for your comment on my Ten Years After series. Since there are so few comments and there is no counter as to views, it is difficult to know if anyone is reading it or not. But that is life… and so we go on.

      Thank you again.

    6. Tina must be out of her mind to actually think that Angie would be happy that she is marrying Carrie, it boggles my mind how she can just walk away and don’t consider her wife and kid.

    7. Thank you for your comment. I hope you will read my other comments and continue to read this story. Tina will explain as best she can what happened to make her behave the way she did. Let me know what you think.

      Thanks for reading.
