Chapter 7
Between the flack I was taking over Provocations, the attacks in therapy and feeling like you left me even though you were still here, I was overwhelmed. You were making decisions without me about the baby. I was so hurt that you told Alice before you told me. I couldn’t blame you. I just felt sad.
Kit called it the Daddy Blues. I thought that was what it was. I even wondered if I was still in love with you. We were so far apart for a time and that Tina was not us. Do you remember the night I came home early so we could be together just spend some time together and you responded that I should have called first.
We lost the baby and I tried to comfort you as best I could.” The emotion welling up brought that time vividly back for Tina.
“I remember, Babe.”
Bette returned from her tour around the living room.
“I met Candace while you were in Palm Springs. She was beautiful and charming and she wanted me. It felt good to just be wanted. I was vulnerable and I know that is not an excuse but I surrendered to the desire. I tried to stop myself. I really did.”
“Did you sleep with her when I was in Palm Springs?” Tina did not want hear the answer but had to know.
“No. When you surprised me in my office I thought you were her when you slipped your arms around me from behind. I told her… I mean you that I can’t… I couldn’t.”
Tina dropped her head. She remembered that moment and that in that moment that she wondered what other woman had been touching Bette. She knew it instinctively and this confirmed the thought.
“I became suspicious that there might be someone else and pushed the thought away. I never imagined that you would betray me Bette. Never, it’s still hard to hear.”
“Should I stop? I don’t want to hurt you Tina. I’m so sorry that I did.”
“No, go on. We have to talk about all of it. It’s the only way. I have to talk to you too if we are going to have a real chance. I want that Bette, please go on, you’re doing good, real good. So when did you actually sleep with her?”

Wow…Barbara had some (balls) didn’t she? I am glad Tina didn’t shy away from the challenge. I am glad Tina didn’t go running when Bette was admitting what had happened. I hope they continue to move forward. Keep posting…love it!
Tina calling out the senator and telling her what’s what? HOT. Good stuff, mate.
I love the approach that Tina used w/The Senator. She marked her territory. Also, she was angry with Bette’s infidelity but did turn tail and run away. She’s going to fight for her woman. None of this passive-aggressive shit that’s on the show. IMO, You’re doing an excellent job with this story. PPS.
GO TINA!
Really Great Chapter. Thank you PPS
I’m with Rau, it is how it should have been. I can only hope and pray that S4 will bring our girls back around.
Some very deep stuff. Good job.
If only. thanks
…and that is how it should have been…
It was nice to see Tina stand her ground and fight to hold onto Bette. Bette opened up her heart even though she thought that Tina would storm out. They both opened their heart to each other and are ready to move forward. I do hope that the dream that Bette had will be addressed even more. I believe that it had something to do with why Bette took Angelica. Bette is so much like her dad without knowing it. She wanted to take Angelica because she felt she was better able to raise her because of her mixed heritage.
Damn..too bad Tina didn’t tell Bette she wanted her more than the Senator in S3. OH…just wishing….thanks for the wonderful update.
DAMN TINA’S GOOD!
WOW, THIS IS GREAT. Too bad they NEVER had this conversation on the show. YOU WERE MUCH BETTER AT WRITING B&T, THAN THE WRITERS OF THE SHOW.
