“Of course.” Tina led him and the other officer downstairs and saw the crime scene investigators were already on their way out.
“We’ll leave a patrol car outside for awhile, and like I said, someone will be around tonight.” Officer Pare jotted down a number and handed it to Tina. “Just call this number if you need anything. You’ll be fine. Do you have someone you can call to come and stay with you?”
As if on cue, the front door swung open, and Bette strode into the entryway. “What’s going on here?”

“I can’t believe it. I just keep going over it and over it in my mind,” Tina said, looking down contemplatively into her teacup.
“Don’t think about it, T. Are you sure you don’t want to go to a hotel for the night? I don’t mind.”
Tina took Bette’s hand. “No, I’m okay, really. I guess I’m just in shock that something like this could happen to us. Somehow I never thought it would. I mean, this is a safe neighborhood.”
“It still is, T. Remember what the officer said?”
“Yes. Chances are slim to none the intruder will be back.”
“Right. The risk of getting caught are too high. Anyway, the patrolman is still outside. We’ve got a great alarm system, and we’ve changed the code. The girls will be by later. And you know Kit’s going to be packing heat.” Bette was trying to tease a smile out of Tina, and Tina complied, in spite of the worrying thoughts swimming around in her mind. She wasn’t afraid, exactly. She was disturbed that a stranger had touched her things, and shaken that she’d come so close to danger. And yet, there was something else in the back of her mind, a feeling she couldn’t shake. She needed quiet to think it over, but Bette was watching her like a hawk and full of tense energy, looking perturbed by the whole thing herself.
“Do you want to order some food?” Bette stood up and opened the drawer where they kept the takeout menus. “I could go for Nepalese right now. Where’s the phone?”
Just like that, the pieces fell together and Tina knew what had been bothering her.

Wow that was good, but I don’t think that’s the end, right?
Loved this can’t believe it ended there though… We want more!!!
Enjoyed it, thanks
the end?? noooo lets see what happens please.!!!
Great end!!!!
Another sad story.
That was very well done, and I hope it is truly NOT the end. More please. I hated that episode in their lives and the cowardly way Bette handled it. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for another very well written story. Reading Tina’s experience was very suspenseful and you really captured me as an audience. In both your stories I have been disappointed in the Bette character because I hope she would not be so cold and heartless to the people she loves most in her life. She made mistakes but I don’t think she was ever that calculating in purposely hurting anyone. I’d rather that Tina found out the way she did at Provocations than to think Bette would send Candace to her house, give her the alarm code and purposely scare her pregnant wife half to death with a home invasion just to cover the affair. That was so cruel, and it also gives more importance to Bette’s affair than just sex with Candace. Spending time and taking pictures meant they had a relationship, and it also showed Bette’s callous disregard for Tina so in that case I agree with the way you ended it. Tina should leave her, never tell her about the baby and go on with her life.
oh wow…why did you end it? please give us more…
The End? I don’t think so…
Excellent. Thank you.
I take that you not a bette fan lol,you made her out to be cruel and viscious in both your stories…good twist though
