Forever I Promise: Chapter Ten

Hearing that something was wrong with Tina. Bette lost it. She jerked out her IV line and ripped the heart monitor patches off her chest trying to get out of the bed. The nurse had to page Dr. Bruch for orders to medicate her before she hurt herself. Bette wasn’t hearing anything Kit said.

Dr. Bruch came rushing into the room with a shot to calm Bette down. Its going to knock her out for a while Kit but shell be ok. Bette grabbed Dr. Bruchs wrist and looked in her eyes. Please I have to see Tina. It wasnt her fault she slapped me. I had an affair and she saw that woman kiss me today. I didnt remember then but I do now. I have to tell Tina that I didnt sleep with her the day I collapsed. Dr. Bruch please I’m begging you. She has to know. She cant be upset about this. Not with our Baby. We already lost our son because of stress. Bettes voice began to fade as she slowly fell asleep.

Tina was standing there completely frozen. She was trying to comprehend what she just heard Bette say. How does Bette know I’m pregnant? Dr. Bruch and Kit both startled turned around to see Tina standing there. Kit walked over to Tina and led her to the chair beside Bettes bed. Baby girl I dont know. Bette said Cole told her. Tina looked up at Kit with a look of complete shock. Kit that was our baby boys name Tina said with tears in her eyes. But how? How did Bette know? Dr. Bruch also had tears in her eyes now. Tina, I am so sorry about what I said downstairs. I know now how much you both love each other. I know Bette is safe with you.

Tina refused to leave even when the girls tried to get her to eat something. Kit left long enough to check on The Planet and bring some food back. Kit was determined that Tina was going to eat something period. Baby girl you are going to eat. You have to keep up your strength for my lil neice now. Tina looked up at Kit confused. Even Tina didnt know whether she was having a boy or girl.
