    Bette tightened her grip on Tina’s side. Holding them, holding Tina, the most natural thing in the world.

    ***

    Angie, Mitch and Hal spent the night in Santa Monica, while all four grandparents went back to The Ranch for some much-needed sleep and decent food. A day later, the new family came home. Mitch’s folks stayed another night, but then had to get back for work. No sooner did they leave, though, than Shane, Tess, Cassie, Alice and Eleanor descended, and stayed for a night too. It was chaotic, but a time of great love, and celebration.

    Angie, so much younger than Tina had been when she gave birth, seemed to bounce back very fast. Within three or four days, she was more or less back to normal, pain from a few stitches notwithstanding. Mitch was masterful with a diaper. But they did accept help too, and both Tina and Bette took turns to soothe the baby or have him spend a few hours in their rooms while Angie and Mitch napped.

    And then one night, when Hal was about a week old, Bette couldn’t sleep. Her brain racing with all the decisions she had to make. Decisions she’d been delaying out of superstition, not wanting to assume anything. But now she really had to think about these things.

    She snapped on her bedside lamp and lay for a minute, staring at the off-white ceiling. She’d given Tina a few thoughts about decor, as invited, but she wondered, a little, whether there was more to that. Is she implying that I could live here? Bette wasn’t sure how she felt about that.

    A deep sigh. The usual wondering what Tina was doing right now, in her room, twenty feet away . . . Bette ran her hand over her stomach. Went a little lower.

    No.

    She threw the bedclothes back, got up, grabbed her robe, and stepped out into the hallway. Immediately, she could see warm yellow light spilling from the kitchen area into the corridor. Someone was up.

    She padded along the hardwood floor, running her hand through her hair, turned the corner and saw Tina sitting at the black granite breakfast counter, looking at an iPad. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail and Bette could see the small white shape of earpods in her right ear.

    1. Awwww… Blockbuster chapter, Largo! B.R.A.V.A. It took an eternity for Bette and Tina to find what they were looking for and to find the right balance of courage, acceptance, surrender and open- heartedness to give in to that lovely kiss again. Wow, what a journey, what a lovely family and what a love story! Thank you so much for this feel-good, sunshiny chapter and this lovely story, Largo!❤

      • Hi mightymouse! *waves* Thanks so much for reading and commenting. I’m really delighted you enjoyed this chapter. Good things come to those who wait, right?? I got all gooey writing about that wee baby! Nice.

        Thank you gain for your support. It truly means a lot to me. Have a great week.

      • Hi Angel 1981! *waves* Thank you so much for reading my story and leaving a comment. :-)

        I wanted to write something in which B&T ‘fix’ themselves before they reunite. We’ll probably not get to see that on the show, but I think that’s one of the things fanfic can do, is let us explore things we don’t get to see. I liked using my imagination to try and work out how they might change.

        Your support is much appreciated. I’ll try and get the last chapter up at the weekend.

        Have a great day
        Largo

    3. OMG!!! You made me cry – that was so moving & it hit squarely in the middle of my chest – direct hit to my Tibette heart!!

      We’ve chatted at length about this story & gone up & down for the reasons why, but in the end – all that really mattered is family – their family. which is a little bigger now with a son in law, a brand spanning new baby boy & two other grandparents that could just be the right fit too.

      This chapter was well done as per your usual brilliance. As mightymouse stated – BRAVA!!!

      Bette & Tina path has been clouded, stressful, unclear & certainly long, but finally, FINALLY, they have made it back home to one another.

      I know you mentioned that you might also grace us once again with a possible continuation of The Real Tibette Watching GQ – but I sure wish you coulda, shoulda been on the writing team for GQ3 – hell all of GQ in its entirety!!!

      Thanks for all your effort in creating this nugget of perfection.

      As always, a simple thing in life – having the love of your life in your life is all that matters.

      Hears to Bette & Tina & forever!!!

      P.S. – five stars pal!!!

      • Hello Collins, my friend! *waves*

        Thank you for sticking with this story and for commenting so positively – that means a great deal to me. :-) Glad I made you cry, too, lol. I do think the end of this chapter might be the very sweetest thing I’ve ever written for B&T. I just LOVED this idea of them reintroducing themselves. When it popped into my head I just felt the emotion in it and knew it would work.

        I still have one more chapter to write. Might see if I can get that done today, in fact. Quite a dreich day here in Edinburgh (what else is knew, haha)

        Thanks for the 5 stars! That’s funny, in light of our convo. :-)

        Thanks for all your support and friendship – I promise I will catch up with DOH one of these days. Keep writing!
