They got out of the shower after several kissing sessions and began to dress in their pajamas and robe. Both were smiling knowing they were beginning to develop a tradition – the pajama dinner. Who of their friends and acquaintances would believe that the highlight of a trip could be a pajama dinner with just the two of them?
The dinner arrived and they set their food up at the dining table. They were ecstatic with the onion rings and fries. The servings were large, and the burger was huge. They laughed and teased one another about eating this quote decadent dinner. They then started to talk about the upcoming weekend. They did not know Angie’s schedule, so they did not know how to plan. They definitely would be into house searching or at least getting an agent to start looking for their new home. Tina had an appointment with Judith on Tuesday. Bette thought she might have lunch with Emma and make sure that things were as good as Bette felt they were. Perhaps they would clean out the media room and Bette would reorganize her office. Tina needed to search for computer equipment and complete her office. The boxes from Toronto would be in late in the week. They would need to get them organized and into Tina’s closet. Yes, it would be another full week.
After dinner they piled their dishes on the cart and rolled it into the hallway. They took what was left of their beers and went to sofa in front of the fireplace and cuddled into each other’s arms.
Bette: That was a lovely dinner and now this is the best part. To be sitting here with you, holding you close in comfortable non-confining clothing and being able to be so connected with you.
Tina: Yes, and it allows us to express ourselves and allow our emotions to run rampart without fear or embarrassment. It allows us to be us, and I like that.
Bette: Me too.
Tina: So how do you think we are doing in this journey toward reconciliation?
Bette: I think we are light years ahead of where I imagined we would be a month ago. I understand more about what happened. I’m not sure there was anything that I could have done to change the course of events. I do keep asking myself that: what could I have done to keep you from leaving. And frankly, I have no answers for that. The reason is at that time, I simply did not know what was going on. And no one can deal with something they don’t know about. But now I do know and now I think there are some things that I can do. For one thing, never allow you to get booged down with your day-to-day life. Never allow you to think that you are not an essential part of my life. And always check your happiness meter to be sure that it is on the upswing and not the down swing. Other than that, I just need to love you and keep you close but allow you to be who you are and what you want to be.

What a surprising ending, Bette asking Tina to be her wife again.
Is it to soon? if it feels right for both of them, time doesn’t matter.
They have packed Tina’s stuff and are ready to move in a new direction, new jobs and looking for a new beach house.
Bibi,
I actually am glad that you were surprised. Is it too soon? I guess it depends on how you feel about these two. Bette and Tina have taken the time to reestablish their relationship. They have a reasonable understanding of what happened to break them up. Tina made the effort to come back and did it voluntarily. They are both older, mature women who know who they, I believe know each other, as well as any two people can know each other. Life has it limits and sometimes, you have to accept that there are risks in every decision you make. Tina has displayed that she is willing to do whatever it takes to be with Angie, and she loves Bette.
The choice to me for both of them is really rather simple. Take this opportunity to make a life together or say goodbye forever. If things do not turn out perfectly? Well, I guess that’s life. But in the eyes of my Bette and my Tina, it is better to have tried and lose than never to try at all.
Thanks for reading…
Well, well, well …. A marriage proposal!
I can’t say I’m surprised.
Tina really has several all ties with her past, with Carrie and with her job with Showtime. She set out to do this, she knew she wanted it, so made her plan and carried it through perfectly.
All the time Bette was by her side, encouraging her but not pressing or pressuring her. Making sure this was really what Tina wanted.
This more than NY I think was more probably more emotional for Tina, cos she now knows, everything is done and she just has to concentrate on her new life with Bette and Angie, her new job and looking for the perfect beach house for their future together.
Angie and Shane are going to be blown away by this news ….. perfect timing, I think !!
Most who have read this story have said they were surprised by the marriage proposal. I think that both Bette and Tina are somewhat surprised themselves. Not something Bette planned but felt that it was the right thing to do.
These two women are a pair of equals in their relationship. They are the left and right arm of the couple. Will they never have problems? Doubtful. There will always be something which will rub one the wrong way. But they have a plan on how to work those bumps, stops and starts out. They now have sufficient information and commitment and love to go forward with A New Life.
Thanks for your comment….
