Her eyes wandered until they hit the white board and then she realized what the change was. She walked over to the board, her breath becoming shorter and her heartbeat becoming faster and faster. She looked at her name first and then at Bette’s and then her eyes traveled down the jagged line she had drawn to the squiggled "CA" she had written the night before.
Everything’s real…my life is over.
With a shaky hand, Tina grabbed the black marker and finished what she had started. And when she put the last line at the bottom of the "E," Tina was panting from lack of air. She was practically choking. The apartment became blurry and began to spin like a top. The walls moved like waves in the ocean. Before she knew it, Tina was sliding down the wall in the corner of Alice’s apartment, hugging her knees, trying desperately to fill her burning lungs with oxygen.

Kit brushed the damp hair away from Bette’s face, hissing as she touched the angry bruise on Bette’s cheek. "Did Tina do that?" Kit asked, silently amazed at her own question.
Bette merely nodded, making Kit’s lap even wetter than it was before. She closed her eyes, letting herself relax as Kit ran her fingers through her hair. She hadn’t laid her head on Kit’s lap since she was six. She had completely forgotten how nice it felt to be comforted. "It wasn’t bad. I made it worse." She whispered.
"How?"
Bette didn’t answer.
"What are we doing here Bette?"
Bette turned her eyes upward, trying to glance at Kit without moving her head.
"Do you even know where Tina is?"
Silence.
"Do you care?"
Bette shot up into a sitting position beside her sister. "Of course I care."
Kit nodded. "I knew you’d at least answer that."
"I love Tina."
"I know you do."
"I don’t know what I’m going to do without her" Bette whispered, nervously turning the wedding ring around on her finger.
Kit sighed, standing up. "Well, I’m not gonna lie to you baby sis. You fucked up big time. Real big time. But there is always a chance, especially with a love like yours and Tina’s."
"I’m not so sure she loves me anymore." Bette continued to stare at the ring, avoiding all eye contact with Kit.

This is heartbreaking…..I love it though!!!
WOW for a newbe 6 pages is alot but i have to say 6 excellent pages, yes this is very sad, hell its heartbreaking but as with some other stories on this site youve really filled in the blanks, please keep it coming thanks really enjoyed it …well in a morbid way..lol
“It hadn’t been a nightmare….Tina was gone.”… Manda, wow, great first chapter!
I agree with B. This is really well written and I am looking forward to see where you plan to take if from here. Great Job!!
I agree with everyone, please keep going. This is good. I am a relatively new fan myself. I viewed season 2 episode 1 in syndication and then rented all of season 1. I was finally able to see all of season 2 a few months ago. I thank you for exploring this time “in between”. I wondered how did they get from the final episode of season 1 to the beginning of season 2. Particularly in season two when Bette said she had not tried to contact Tina because she wanted to be able to do what Tina asked of her. Did Tina actually want to get back with Bette back sooner, but Bette stayed with Candace until she realized her “mistake”? How did she approach Candace with continuing their relationship? Was the relationship actually six months long? I am a Tibetter from Betteville and I hated to see Bette suffer, but I guess this may be why Tina took it to her in season 2. I would love to hear your take on the “silent” months. Please keep going.
it’s really good, but i have to tell you, i hate drama LOL…very good though, because a lot of this was missing between s1 and s2
I’ve read a few fics that explored what happened after S1, but this is the truest I’ve seen in terms of what we would have watched if IC had chosen to show what happened within those first 24-48 hours after the finale. Most of the time I was wiping away stray tears but I did catch myself giggle over the suggestion that Tina smoke a joint to calm down. And of course Dana being her usual self is generally comical. I vote that you stick with this. Also, don’t worry if people get pissy because you didn’t go for fluffy bunny cute B&T. While I personally enjoy something light more often than not, it’s the darker side of B&T that make me think a little bit more.
The story is absolutely necessary. You’re right. There’re few scenes in the show to say how hard Bette tried to get Tina back. She just suddenly went back to normal life. I don’t think Bette would give up so easily. Please continue.
i am at a loss for words…..i love drama and this is full of it……continue soon…..

This is very well written…looking forward to the next chapter.
Wow! Great chapter, your voice mirror those of TLW. Looking forward to see where you take this story. I love that Kit came to Bette’s side — that shows how they were able to reconnect and illustrate the new found bond they had in S2.
Great start! And don’t feel like you have to apoligize for writing a story that starts post season 1. I enjoy these more than BnT beginnings. Please write more.
This is good and please continue, thanks!
