Easier to Hate: Part 4
“I need to talk to you.”
“About what?”
Conscious of the people around her, Bette whispered, “I think I’m in love.”
Alice sobered up immediately. “What?”
Bette shook her head. “I think I’m in love.”
“With who?”
“What do you mean, ‘with who?’ Who do you think? Tina!” Bette whispered harshly.
“All right, all right, I was just asking.” Alice said, sitting down on a bench by the wall. Bette quickly followed, putting her face in her hands. “Are you drunk?”
Bette looked at her. “Nowell, maybe a little, but that’s beside the point. I’m in fucking love.”
“So Bette Porter’s in loveyou know, most of the lesbian population is going to be disappointed when they hear that.”
“What do I do?”
“What do you mean?”
“I-II don’t know how to handle it. I’ve never felt this strongly about anyone ever.”
Alice felt a slight twinge of pain in her heart. She and Bette had dated after all. It was totally over, but Alice liked to think that Bette might have felt at least something while they were together. “Why are you freaking out like this is a bad thing? You’re in love Bette. You’ve found someone. Be happy!”
Bette just looked at Alice, her eyes shining with tears. Alice wrapped her arm around Bette’s shoulder. “I can’t do this Alice. I can’t commit–”
“You guys have been dating for whateight months now?”
Bette nodded. “Yes.” She said breathlessly, like it shocked her.
“Tina has the key to your house, right?”
Bette nodded again.
“Well, that, to me, already says you’re willing to commit.” Alice paused to see how Bette was taking it, but the woman didn’t look any less relieved. “Okayhow does Tina make you feel?”
“What do you mean?”
“I meanhow do you feel when you’re with Tina?”
Bette’s eyes lost focus as she thought. “II feellight.”
“Light?”
Bette nodded, slightly smiling. “Like I’m floating on air. I feel happy.”
“How would you feel if Tina left?”
Bette’s smile turned into a deep frown as she seriously contemplated the question. “I don’t knowI don’t think” As Bette trailed off, she gasped and sat up straighter.
Alice nearly jumped in surprise. “What? What is it? You don’t think what?”
“I don’t think I could live without her.”

First time calls, second time flowers, what’s for the next time? But I still hope Tee will forgive Bette.
Love the story and the long posts was a bonus. Bette needs to beg beg get down on her knees beg and keep begging for Tina’s forgivness, flowers are not going to do it. Excellent chapter
Wow this is excellent. I like the long posts like this and was a wonderful flashback. Well hope this time she will beg and get down on her kneed again begging for Tina’s forgiveness and hope Tina will forgive Bette. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Great chapter don’t mind the long posts at all!!!
Great stuff… now lets try flowers…tho i think it will take a little more than that to fix this…lookin forward to more…lots more…
What suprises me is that the notion of love didn’t come around a lot sooner. Well if I learned one thing from this chapter, it’s never have a possible life-altering conversation (or yelling match) while drunk. And WTF…flowers? I’d be pissed if someone brought me flowers after a major break-up as of a way of apologizing. Flowers are way too happy for that type of occasion.
I love the long posts and this one was excellent. I really enjoyed the flashback to their first break up. Thanks and please post again soon!
I had something I originally wanted to say and couldn’t remember until now. You asked what we thought might have been the time that passed between S1 and S2. I once read that it was 1 day, but come on. No one’s pregnancy goes from not showing to popping out in a few hours. I would think a month would be long enough for a person to start showing, but I’ve never been pregnant so I wouldn’t know. I’m also pretty sure that Tina said she was living on Alice’s couch for a month right around the time she met with Joyce the annoying as fuck lawyer. But that also makes me wonder how long Bette was involved with Candyass because I always assumed she went back to her 1 more time then called it quits. Wow, people weren’t kidding when they said S2 had holes in the plot and bad writing.
wonderful…the first breakup was really intense….the time line was so screwed up, but my theory is that it was no more than 1-2 weeks between end of s1 and 201, because in 201 Al and dana talked about their kiss and i don’t think they could stay away and not to talk about it for months…tina did tell her lawyer in 203 that she stayed at alice’s house for 1 month, so maybe 2-3 weeks passed from ep. 1 to 3…and i don’t believe that bette would sleep with candace for so long…and another thing: tina was 13 weeks pregnant in 205 when she met helena and she go pregnant while she was still with bette for couple of months…so yes, only 2 weeks at the most between s1 and s2
Wow, that was really good and remarkably believable. The long posts are great. Please keep going.
