Easier To Hate: Part 1
"Let’s go." Shane said, buckling up and taking the coffee from Alice’s hands. She had to see Tina for herself. Maybe then, she might believe what was happening.
Alice started the car and pulled out, cursing out of helplessness.
————————————————-
Alice opened the door to her apartment quietly, still believing that Tina was passed out on her couch. She turned to Shane and pressed her finger to her lips and then silently began to tiptoe down her hallway. Shane nodded, following Alice and turning to close the door.
"SHIT!" Alice shouted, causing Shane to jump and almost drop the coffee. She rushed into the living room to see Alice kneeling by Tina, who was huddled in a corner, her head between her legs, gasping for air. Shane’s heart dropped into her stomach and tears burned her eyes as she looked at her broken friend.
"Tina, T…look at me. Tina, breathe. It’s okay, just breathe." Alice said, putting both of her hands on Tina’s shoulders. Tina frantic eyes met Alice’s as she wheezed. Alice turned to Shane. "Get a bag! Shane!"
Shane snapped out of her trance and spun around, looking for something, anything that looked like a bag. She ran for Alice’s kitchen, throwing the coffee down on the counter and grabbing the brown paper bag sitting in an empty fruit bowl. She opened it, letting the peaches it held spill out. Then, she dashed back to the living room, dropping to her knees before Tina, handing her the bag.
Tina took the bag and put it to her mouth. Alice and Shane sat and watched in silence as the bag expanded and deflated rapidly at first, and then gradually began to slow. After a few minutes, Tina’s breathing had returned to normal, but she was crying, and very, very pale. Alice pulled her sobbing friend into a tight hug, whispering, and "I’m sorry, I’m sorry" over and over again.
Feeling helpless, Shane got up and paced around. Anger took over her again as she walked over to the white board and saw "CANDACE" connected to Bette’s name. "Jesus Christ Alice, you couldn’t wait a fucking second to put her up on your wall?"
Alice turned to Shane, but didn’t let go of Tina. "I didn’t–"

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!
