First, Last, & Forever? (Version 2.0 – Chapter 6)
“Hurting her how, Bette?”
‘Foxworthy and his damn questions.’ Bette thought to herself. ‘Always turning my words against me.’
“Well, obviously, I’m worried about hurting her physically. Do you know what a c-section does to a woman?” Bette snapped at him a little. “I worry that if I’m too rough…maybe rough isn’t the right word…that if I’m too physical with her, I’m going to hurt her.” Bette sounded sure of herself for the first time since they had started talking about sex and Tina.
“You also mentioned hurting her emotionally. What did you mean?” Foxworthy was challenging her now, knowing this was the real issue.
Bette stopped and thought about this, and clasped her palms together again. She leaned back against the couch, sighing.
“I love Tina. You know that. And I am just worried that if she feels like I don’t want her, or I don’t react to something the way she wants, or I don’t know…that she’s going to be hurt. Maybe to the point that she will really never want to make love again. Or maybe even that she’ll leave again. I just love her so much, I can’t stand the idea of hurting her.” Bette stated with conviction. “And I can’t stand the idea of losing her again.” Bette’s voice had trailed off to nearly a whisper, tears filling her eyes.
Now Foxworthy knew he had found what was really troubling Bette. Not performance anxiety, maybe a little uncertainty about how Tina’s body had changed. But mostly her core fear of not being accepted by Tina, of Tina leaving again.
“Bette…” Foxworthy almost whispered, trying to focus her attention. “Do you really think, really believe, that Tina would leave you if you don’t have life-altering sex tonight? Is that truly what you feel will happen?”
Bette squirmed a little, like a child caught in a small fib. She looked at Foxworthy, waiting for him to raise his eyebrows. This time, he didn’t. He rose from his chair, and joined Bette on the sofa. He put his hand on her shoulder, and looked her square in the eyes.
“Bette, go home. If Tina’s doctor said she’s ready for physical intimacy, and you both want it, make love to your wife. Remember, it’s okay to talk about whatever is going through your mind. Tina wants to know. And it’s okay to talk before, after, and even during sex, Bette. If you talk to each other, it will all be okay.” Foxworthy was remarkably reassuring, instead of questioning, for once. Bette got in her car and started the drive home.

That was an enlightening look into Bette’s head. However, I’m looking forward to tomorrows installment.
talking is good…this dan is not that bad LOL go home, bette ;)
Steph: this was a truly excellent chapter. Sensitively written and very, very real. Longterm relationships have sexual ebbs and flows for a myriad of reasons. What matters most is communication. Thanks for the way you handled this.
Steph, Great Chapter. Bette needs to let Tina know about her fears. Same goes for Tina. Thanks PPS
still keeping up with the posts. thanks.
great update…. tina is just as nervous as bette they need to talk first…
Awesome chapter. I love the analytical side of things, and I agree that communication is exactly what is needed. There will always be moments when one partner needs to be reassured, while the other may not. At moments they may both need that. I learned the hard way, that communication is essential to keeping things fresh, even, secure, and solid. I hope that Bette and Tina can find that same key so it will divert any potential issues in the future. Thanks Steph!
go home bette…go home…
I WANT MY FOUR COMPLETE PAGES, AND I WANT THEM NOW! …Okay, I know I’m getting irrational. I’m next on Foxworthless’ couch. Thanks!
How come your Foxworthlessness makes sense? How come your Bette and Tina are communicating and working together toward greater understanding in their relationship? The flat place on my forehead was almost back to normal. The paradox of better TLW writing on the fanfic site makes me butt my head against a wall. I had almost forgotten…
foxworthy was good but i wonder why they rarely had sex in ‘that’ 3 years.
Foxworthy finally made some sense. Bette needs to talk to Tina let her know that if anything feels uncomfortable to let her know so she can change how she is doing things. Communication is the key. Now let her stop second guessing herself and go home and take care of her woman, give her everything that is in her heart.
Wow–Bette is very caught up in her own insecurities! At least Foxworthy was able to help her look at things from a new perspective. She needs to let it go and keep the communication lines open between herself and Tina, which was indeed their problem back when we first met them. And they will have a sweet reunion with the love they still have for one another!
Makes sense. I figured that was what bothered Bette. She’s still scared Tina will leave her. So, let’s get Bette home safely and let the night begin!!! PPS
Just wanted to say I am so glad you are reposting this story. Looking forward to more.
Bette had a good talk with Foxworthy. Now she needs to talk to Tina. Let the lovin begin!
Good chapter and I like this dan foxworthy. Now let she go home and make love to Tina. Please post more, thanks!
Okay maybe Foxworthy wasn’t an ass this time. Bette and Tina are both stressing unnecessarily. I truly think they should be talking to each other. Is Bette home yet?
