She’d been able to hold them off for 48 hours. And considering the pressure she was under, that was nothing short of miraculous. But Bette finally relented to the pitiful pleas from Kit and Alice, and agreed to let them visit. On the one hand, Bette was eager to share their miracle with the entire world. But at the same time, she wanted to keep her small family all to herself for as long as possible. There was something so intensely private and sacred about this time together, just the three of them, and Bette hated to give it up.
In the hours after Jordan’s birth, while Tina and the baby slept, Bette sat in the chair next to the bed, keeping vigil. She was so tired she could hardly think straight, but she was unable to bear the thought of closing her eyes and missing a moment of the beautiful vision in front of her. Tina, her strong, lovely wife, lost in peaceful dreams, while tiny Jordan slumbered at her side. Their vulnerability, their defenselessness, made Bette’s heart literally ache, and all she wanted to do was protect them, keep them safe and well and happy forever.
“I love you,” Bette whispered, leaning forward to tuck a loose strand of hair behind Tina’s ear, and place a soft kiss at her wife’s temple.
“Baby,” Tina mumbled, not opening her eyes.
“Shhh. It’s okay. Everything’s fine.”
“It’s not a dream, is it?” Tina asked, a weary smile spreading across her face.
“Open your eyes and see for yourself,” Bette said.
Tina’s eyes fluttered open, and she found herself face to face with the small person they’d just welcomed into the world.
“Oh,” Tina sighed, tracing a light fingertip across her daughter’s silky cheek.
“Look what you made,” Bette said, softly.
“And she’s ours,” Tina said, looking up at Bette.
“Yes. She’s all ours.”
Bette had gotten into their bed then, sidling up behind Tina, fitting their bodies as close together as she could, relaxing into her wife’s nearness.
“Thank you,” she said, pressing her lips against the warm hollow where Tina’s neck and shoulder met. But Tina didn’t reply. She had already fallen back to sleep.

AWWWW!!! Why is it that this pulled at my heart even more and felt more meaningful the second time around? I loved how Bette fell in love all over again, first with Tina and then with their baby girl…that’s how I feel about this story! Thanks so much! What’s next????
Fantastic job, I enjoyed all the chapters. I’m looking forward to your next story.
No no no this cant be the end what ever will I do with myself. It is too good to end
I can’t believe this is it. It was so wonderful. I don’t know how I’m going to get by without my fix each day!
Thank you so much for this wonderful story, you’re really an amazing writer. I hope that you’ll continue “sweet talk”.
I enjoyed it as much as the first time. Thanks for posting this again.
loved the story hope you have another one coming
That was the perfect way to end. Friends and family surrounded by love.
I have enjoyed your story from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing it, and I look forward to any future stories that you might post.
thank you doesnt cover it ffc. im truly in awe of your talent. am grateful you have other stories out there for us. buy dayum girl. please dont pull this. when im depressed by s3 or some storyline that is just killing me here, i want to know i can come by and have my heart healed. thank you for this gift.
Where’s Shane’s line where she says Bette was ‘right there, in it with her”, or something to that effect. It was one of your best lines. Where did it go? I don’t recall Kit saying anything about them ‘needing to do it together” the first time either.
It’s your story, of course, and you can’t help it if some of us have it memorized…
Lovely, lovely, lovely story. One of the best ever posted on here. You took us from their breakup, through stormy territory, and back together again. And you concluded with Jordan’s birth. Lovely. Satisfying. Complete.
Thank you.
I’m so glad u brought this back. It was awesome the first time andit got better with age, I hope u have it in u to write another story about our girls and their adventures. Thanks for taking the time.
There are some important and lovely things in my life I won’t never forget and I know your story wil be one of these things. Pour le bonheur que cette histoire m’a donné, merci.
This a beautiful story from the first word to the last. You’ve told it all with great tenderness and economy of words, and you are a marvel. You deserve every accolade. Thank you for sharing your exceptional writing talents and your big ole bursting-at-the-seams romantic heart.
I’m sorry I am so far behind; finally, a chance to read the last 8 chapters. Thank you for such a wonderful story. You did such a fabulous job from start to finish.
I don’t know if you still read comments, and I can’t figure out how to send a private message, but I have to tell you that you really are the best Tibette writer I’ve ever read. I’ve just finished reading the whole thing, not all at once! but have really enjoyed it second time around. This birth was so beautiful and so much better than Ilene’s, with all her blessed drama! Thank you.
I’ve read this story at least 5 times… usually when I have my period and need a good cry and a good laugh. It’s wonderful. Thank you.

This has been one of my favourite things to read. You have the characters perfect, Alice has made me laugh just by being Alice, Shane just being Shane, and the growth of Bette and Tina individually and as a couple. This story has been beautiful from beginning to end. Thank you.

I so enjoyed this story. Thank you.
thanks for posting this again – I didn’t catch it the 1st time. I read the whole thing in a matter of days – great – great -great. very nice and ‘comforting’ considering what we are probably in for in S3 :(
That was such a wonderful story. I wished that this could have happened on the show.
Wow! :-O Can’t believe that this is the finale!! Though I am glad that I managed to catch up, but its quite sad to see it’s ending! Anyway… Thanks FFC for sharing this amazingly heart warming story! ^_^ glad I found this!! And am sure that this won’t be my only time reading it ;-) I know it’s been a long time from the day you posted these stories, I just hope you are fine and you’ll be back again :-)
