Fall in Vermont – Chapter 6
As Kit got in the car she dialed Alice’s number “Kit, my gosh – what is
happening out there I have been on pins and needles” “Alice,
girlfriend.. we need bump this up a few notches these women are hard
headed but I do see hope – in a very small package” “What package?
never mind – I’ll tell you that part later, so now how to do we get
these two together for Christmas?” Kit and Alice laughed plotting part
two of this little masterpiece.
Kit returned fairly quickly from checking them out of the hotel and grabbing their bags.
Just as they started to talk a bit deeper Jessie had called for Tina and a glass of water.
Kit arrived back and Bette helped her with bags. “Kit, you are so
stubbornI told you we are just friends” “Don’t try to fool me into
thinking you didn’t want another morning with them – Jessie has you
wrapped around her finger” Bette blushed from hearing the truth knowing
that any time with Tina and Jessie felt amazing.
“Bette don’t blow this off That little girl loves you already and you love her too as much you love Tina” “Enough Kit”
Tina poked her head in the room with a smile “You look like you have
everything you need” “We do and thank you – having breakfast with
Jessie will be a delighted”
And with those words Bette followed Tina out into hallway. “I’m going
to go up and say good night one more time if you don’t mind” said
Bette. Tina nodded her head understanding the sparkle in Bette’s eye
that only Jessie could have put there.
Tina and Bette looked in on Jessie one more time, Bette kissing her
forehead and tucking up back under the blankets. Bette turned to feel
Tina’s hand leading her down the hallway and to her room.
They sat on the bed together and said nothing for a moment. “Tina, How
do you do it all? the shop? Jessie?” You could hear the concern in
Bette’s voice.
” You know I have great help. My friend Nancy across the street takes
care of Jessie for me and when she was baby I would bring her to shop
and let her sleep in the back. You, just get it done. But still there
are days”
Tina appreciated Bette’s genuine concern for her. There was a long
pause with them both shyly looking away knowing that there was more to
discuss.
“Tina, what were you going to ask me before?” Bette knew the answer
already really, it was time to talk about the affair – time to talk
about with out shouting and throwing things.
“Bette, why? What was so special about Candace?” Bette was silent –
thinking of the best way to answer, to reassure Tina that here affair
with Candace was not about something being wrong with Tina.
“Tina, the affair was more about me being out to control than something
special about Candace. I think she saw my confusion about life, my pain
and saw it as a way into my life but it was never about you being less”
“And what about the *****?” “Tina do you really want to hear this after
all this time?” “I would not be asking you if I didn’t want to know”
Tina said with a chill in her voice.
It was the first time Bette had heard that ice in her voice since
seeing her again, she knew that ice was about the pain she had caused.
“I cannot lie T, ***** with someone else after years of the same partner
can have a momentary thrill but it was never about making love – it was
about ***** but I want to put that behind us so we can be friends”
Tina had tears in her eyes and those tears began to run quickly down
her face. Bette pulled Tina into her arms and they both did something
together they had not done before. They grieved what was lost, a life
together and a child.
They held one another and wept together.
After sometime Tina sat up and looked at Bette, Bette Porter the love of her life and she did what she knew she had to do.
“Bette, for what it’s worth I forgive you, that is something I have needed to say for a long time”
Bette was flooded with emotion and this time it was Tina’s turn to
comfort her. Tina pulled Bette close to her, and rocked her gently and
they fell asleep in one another’s arms.

Friends for awhile maybe. Jessie won the heart of the Porter sisterThis is a wonderful story. Let Tina be home for Christmas in LA thanks
Chaka…tears in my eyes, especially the last bit of dialogue. So poignant, makes one realize how precious is time w/loved ones. Life is not a dress rehearsal…you only get one chance..don’t blow it.
bette and tina just friends not with kit and alice panning the next stage for christmas ,lets make it sooner lol.
I’m really enjoying this – do please continue.
I love this story. Please post soon.
Like everybody else I would love for them to just jump into each others arms and live happily ever after….but that’s not very realistic. Things take time…this healing/reconneting they’re going through have to go slow, so their hearts can survive the process. That’s just my opinion :o)) I really really loves your story, so please keep posting and THANK YOU for this wonderful and a bit sad post.
loving your story. thanks.
So love your story, here’s hoping they can let go of the past and forge ahead to a future together with their daughter. After all Tina did give her Bette’s name as her middle name. I always want them together and in love but that will take a little time. Thanks for this story and this post.
Man this is so good and love it. Hope they will talk more and work thing out soon and get back together, Jessie is so cute. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Oh my heart. I’m left holding it to see if it’s in one piece. Your writing is so moving I can’t get enough. Thanks for this and please continue I love what you are doing. THanks
