Tina shook her head. “No, no. Our sex life is amazing. I love being with you.”
“Really?”
“Babe, absolutely. I’ve never felt more fulfilled than with you.”
Bette’s gaze remained distrustful. “Are you just saying that?”
“Bette. No.”
“Okay. Well why should you have known?” asked Bette.
Tina held her lover’s cheeks in either hand and stared into the soft brown pools. “Because Sidney was your first. Because you were together from your freshman year. And you didn’t have sex with Carmen.”
The brunette seemed to relax. “Oh.”
“And maybe I’m wrong or foolish or gullible. But you just…you don’t seem like you would have fooled around on your wife.”
Bette’s eyes were serious. “I never did. I mean, I did make out with Carmen. But we didn’t…you know. Other than that, I never kissed another woman.”
“Why?” asked Tina.
Bette shrugged. “I – – – I loved her, Tina. I wanted to be faithful. I wanted to throw my fidelity in the face of anyone who thought we shouldn’t be allowed to be married. Or together. All those fucking homophobes who cheat and lie. I believed in the vows we shared. Marrying her wasn’t frivolous to me.”
Tina kissed her girlfriend’s fingertips. “I know, Babe. I know. I know you loved her.”
“It doesn’t mean that what you and I have isn’t real. That it isn’t strong,” said Bette.
“No, I know that, too. I understand.”
“She cheated on me. It hurt. It hurt me very much. I mean, we had our problems. Lots of problems. But I was never unfaithful. It broke something in me. I felt so…inadequate. Like maybe she cheated because I was lousy in bed. Maybe I didn’t have enough experience. Maybe she wanted something different. Or more than I could give her,” said Bette.
Tina shook her head. “No. Her cheating was about her. It didn’t have anything to do with you. She loved you very much. Even I could see that. She never wanted to let you go, Bette. Even right up until the end.”
Bette’s eyes teared. “How…how do you know that?”
“Kit told me. Their last conversation was about you and me. She still loved you. And she loved you enough to finally let you go. So that you’d be happy. Kit told her that I was good for you. And she needed to hear that,” said Tina.

Thank you for this chapter!
And i like throwback to the original story – of course Bette you would be dating if you met in college, we already know that) And in other universe i believe they still dating
Ahh, i forgot to ask about something – in this timeline Bette first approach this Tina because she remember her Tina from 86. But now she forgot about another student Tina – so why she thing she fallen for this Tina – it’s just love in first sight she think?
Beautiful Chapter….. I like that Tina has resolved why she got angry over the Davis Shah incident and that she has been assured from Bette that she has no specific role in this partnership soon to be marriage. I’m afraid that she would be somewhat limiting herself if she really thinks that her primary role is that of protector. Her primary role is partner which includes all roles as needed or requested. Same for Bette.
I am liking these two a couple a lot better than I did when the transition occurred. They have grown – they are kinder to people, more considerate of each other, more loving, and just plain wiser. Of course, they have been a through a lot of trauma and survived and moved forward. I think they ready for marriage. But they need to talk about children at some point. I hope they are on the same page with that…
Thankyou for another lovely chapter…
Thanks for posting, MTS.
Well done, Tina, to tell Bette about your insecurity about your role in the relationship. That way she learnt that Bette loves her for being herself. Very heartfelt moment. Now Tina has to reveal what the interview is all about. Hence the fear of Bette leaving her because of her father?
Nice detail with Bette’s reminiscence of her college time. The universe was probably smiling when she pondered on the ‘what if she met T at college?’. Yes, Bette, you would have fallen in love with Tina at college. In fact, in another time and place your soul found its mate in Tina early in your life. I’d like to think that a part of her soul still remembers her journey through time (and dimensions?) even if she doesn’t anymore.
Their sexual want for each other is out of this world. The vibration thing? A tongue vibrator? Can’t wait when Tina finds out :-D
Wonderful chapter to celebrate T + B’s engagement.
Enjoy your weekend
