Chapter 15
Later that week, Tina is at home and moves towards the front entrance when she hears a knock at the door. She opens the door to Bette, and they both stand still looking at each other for a long moment.
(Bette) Hi
Tina raises her eyebrows and looks back at her, taking a moment before responding.
(Tina) Bette, hi
(Bette) Alice said that she’s spoken to you. That she’s told you what’s going on?
Tina leans against the doorframe and nods.
(Tina) Ah, yes, she’s filled me in. That’s great news, about your memory
Bette nods, looking at her for a moment.
(Bette) She dropped in as I was leaving for the airport. I intended to slip away without anyone knowing about my memory returning, or my trip. I’m sorry that you found out like that
Tina nods, examining her for a moment.
(Bette) I just got home. And I’ve come straight here
Tina looks at her for a moment and then glances back towards the house.
(Tina) Well Angie’s not here I’m sorry. She’s with Kit tonight, I’m sure you can catch them there
Bette looks back at her.
(Bette) I’m not here to see Angie. I asked Kit to arrange with you to have her stay tonight
Tina raises her eyebrows.
(Bette) I wondered if we could have a conversation
Tina considers her for a moment, and then frowns and nods.
(Tina) OK, come in
They move through the house together and Tina turns to her.
(Tina) Can I get you a drink? A tea?
Bette looks over at her.
(Bette) Do you feel like a wine?
Tina looks at her uncertainly, and then nods.
(Tina) OK
She gestures towards the lounge.
(Tina) Head through, I’ll be right in
Bette heads to the couch and Tina moves to the kitchen to organise their drinks. She glances over at Bette as she moves between the cabinet and the bench, and Bette waits patiently for her.
Tina arrives in the lounge and hands Bette a glass before settling alongside her on the couch. They sit in silence for a moment and both have a sip of wine, before Tina turns to her.
(Tina) Do you remember everything? Of these last few weeks?

My favorite chapter so far. So glad they aired all their dirty laundry and are going to give it another go. Thanks for the story.

I have no words for how perfect this chapter is. The best conversation I have read of Tina and Bette in quite some time. You really did cover all of their “failings”, all of their regrets and moments they treated each other badly.
Thank you so much.

AGREE!! It was like they checked each box one after another, all the big ones. AND they both recognized that both of them were at fault. Brillant.

I binged read this entire story yesterday from chapter one. I was HOOKED from the first chapter. It is perfection. Where have I been that I have missing out on this delight? Bette telling Tina that her fiancee has a stupid name in one of the early chapters… I was dead. HA! Loved how Bette never once, ever, wavered in her belief that they belonged together and anything else was just not a long term thing.
I love love love this story, you should be very proud. Can’t wait to see it unfold and hope you have many more adventures planned. Thank yoU!
