“So you go on as Lindsey76?”
“Just that one time. Jesus!”
“What? Why are you getting so upset?”
“Because you’re acting like I have some big secret internet sex life.”
“No, Tina. I think you’re the one who’s acting like that.”
Tina storms out of the bedroom, goes into the bathroom and slams the door. Bette can hear the water running in the shower. She lies back in the bed, not really knowing what to think. She stares up at the ceiling as a lone tear trickles down the side of her face and tickles her ear lobe. About 20 minutes later Tina comes back into the room freshly showered and wearing a tank top and pajama shorts. She sits on the bed. Bette raises herself in a sitting position against the headboard facing her. Bette senses that they’ve reached a turning point in their relationship and whatever Tina has to say is going to be life-changing. She braces herself and looks into Tina’s eyes. She can see that Tina’s been crying too.
“There’s something I have to tell you.” Tina says softly.
“What?” Bette asked just as softly.
“I fucked Daddyof2; on the internet. I fucked him OKAY. I only did it once.”
“Then why did you lie to me?”
“Because … I don’t want to hurt you Bette. It’s just I have all these feelings that I don’t know what to do with. And they’re just so fucked up. I don’t know what I’m doing.”
“Feelings about what; having a baby because …”
Tina interrupted her. She wasn’t going to let Bette placate her or keep her from saying what she had to say.
“No. This has nothing to do with having a baby. At least I don’t think so.”
“Then what is it?”
“I’m having these feelings about men. I’m finding that I’m sexually attracted to men again.”
Even though Bette suspected this was the problem it didn’t make the pain any less. Bette’s heart was crushed and for an instant she couldn’t help but think about Eric. Is this how Tina’s former lover felt when she told him that she was sexually attracted to a woman? Tina broke up with her boyfriend to be with Bette and now the tables have turned. Bette respected Tina’s relationship with Eric and though the attraction was undeniable she didn’t make any moves on Tina until after the break-up. She wondered if Tina had shown their relationship the same respect. Could her erratic behavior be attributed to an extramarital affair? She wasn’t sure if she could handle that, but she had to ask.

Very nice Bat, I have to be careful with what I comment, poor Tina, she is more lost than ant walking on a highway, and poor Bette, she only feels her own pain and not her partner’s. When I watched this scene in season three, I asked myself how people that love each other as they did in that moment, could reach that breaking point, how could someone be so blind and self-absorbed; but in the way you wrote it here, I can, in certain way, understand. I still love how you take them down, they are about to sink totally, although I read many of your stories, I haven’t find this, but I love it. I’ll be waiting, impatiently, for your update this evening Thank you for this chapter, pps
How I love your writing Bat even when my heart is crying at the content, please post soon
Very sad chapter indeed, but I appreciate your take on Bette putting her foot down and leaving the ball in Tina’s court. Of course it’s dangerous especially as even Tina isn’t able or willing (I am not sure yet) to explain her sudden interest in men. But anything is better than what we saw from S3 on – just my humble opinion – I personally hated how they completely turned Bette from this strong confident woman into someone letting others push her around up to the extent of tolerating Tina’s strange behavior. Again, thank you very much bringing this story back and looking forward to your next post.
Ouch!! Thanks for your story.
