    Forged in Fire: Chapter 23

    Bette reached for Tina’s hand and asked her to join her at the window. She stood behind Tina, holding on to her waist, resting her head against her girlfriend’s shoulder. They looked at the skyline and the movement of the city. The white lights seemed to twinkle, and glitter and traffic moved steadily along the bridge. Tina held onto the hands now resting against her belly.

    “Is the story over?” Tina whispered.

    “Almost,” said Bette.

    Tina smiled. “I’m listening.”

    Bette kissed Tina’s cheek. “Well, according to the myth, when these two halves find each other, there will be a silent understanding of one another, they will feel joined and exist with each other in unison and will know no greater joy than that.”

    Tina turned in her arms, meeting her lover’s gaze. There was water standing in the hazel pools.

    “That was beautiful,” she whispered.

    She leaned in and slipped her hand behind Bette’s neck, pulling her in for a tender, yet expressive kiss. Bette’s hands found themselves on Tina’s ass and she held her close.

    “You’re my soul mate, T,” she finally said.

    Tina nodded and when she blinked, a few tears slipped from her eyes. “I know. And you’re mine.”

    They shared a chaste kiss and then Bette wiped the tears from Tina’s face. “Don’t cry, Baby.”

    Tina smiled. “Happy tears.”

    The blonde exhaled and returned to her position in front of Bette; wrapping Bette’s arms around her.

    “This has been an amazing date, Bette. Thank you,” she whispered.

    “I’d do anything to make you smile,” Bette whispered.

    Tina thought back to the conversation she’d had with Pam about Bette breaking Davis Shah’s balls. She couldn’t find a trace of the anger. She understood Bette’s actions. And in that moment, she was more flattered than she was frustrated.

    “You wrap me in this cocoon,” she said aloud.

    “Cocoon?”

    “Safety. Protection. Love. It’s breathtaking,” Tina said quietly.

    Bette kissed her neck and held her tighter.

    “T?”

    “Yes, Babe?”

    “I love you.”

    Tina smiled and reached back, holding Bette’s head close to her. “I know,” she whispered.

    They stood in silence, entranced by the boats on the water. The movement of the evening tide. The muted sounds of life outside this tiny room in this magical place.

    1. This is a special chapter. Very romantic and very special. Tina is growing in her understanding of Bette. And that is good to see. Tina goes from being pissed off which she seldom has been with Bette, to being total captivated by her love and soul. They are truly soul mates. And this dinner was wonderful and they almost got distracted. But in the end, Bette and Tina are now engaged. I am so happy for them.

      So….the introduction which was a recount of Tina’s relationship with her Kennard family; what did that have to do with this chapter? Perhaps I missed it. I shall reread it again.

      Thank you for this lovely episode in the life of Bette and Tina. I love the retelling of the Greek mythology. It is so Bette ! Truly a great experience for me as a reader…

      Thank you for your chapter…. love when you publish.

    2. I absolutely loved Bette telling the story of soul mates to Tina prior to the proposal. Talk about being deep off your feet! Guess the retelling of Papa Kennard and crew is paving the way for Tina taking the rest of them down as promised.

    3. Thank you for the chapter!

      It was a great trick from Bette – perfect date. Tina agreed and it also allow her dodged a bullet from Tina’s anger about all business Bette with her boss.

      And i like story about soulmates as well.

    4. First of all this. Chapter is a “Masterpiece” I loved it.. from the first step into the dining room I knew this was the night. It was beautifully described the whole way through. Thank you.????

      Yes women can be pussy whiped in one since but on her back no.. ????

      “Hon” slipped from pam’s lips ????

      Oh and the death words.. “I’m fine” my wife hates it when I say that.. she usually steps back. Bette apparently wasn’t acquainted in the finer points of what not to do when hearing those two word come out of her womans mouth. Lol

      And lastly have you been watching someone drink wine lately?????

    5. A double posting again? You are too good to us, MTS. Thanks a lot! After doing my usual weekend chores I started reading.
      An engagement! I’m so happy. T + B feeling secure enough in their love to make a commitment. Beautiful proposal. Thank you for reminding me of Platon respectively Aristophanes.

      It was to be expected that Bette’s “talk” with Davis came out sooner or later. But I didn’t expect Tina’s reaction at all. Angry or pissed Tina I did expect but the way you had her going through the emotions was something else. At first giving Bette the (nearly) silent treatment and then listening to her soul, banishing the anger and disappointment that had poisoned her heart for a moment. So good!

      But I’m curious what will come out of her interview. Will she tell Bette before it gets published? Whatever she told and put in motion with it, she shouldn’t have made that decision on her own. Everything she does will effect her soon to be wife in one way or another.

      Thank you, MTS, for the double treat. Enjoy your weekend, stay strong
