“Smells like me?”
Tina glanced at Bette sheepishly, shrugging her shoulders in response. “Like my sweat, you mean.” It was Bette’s turn to look self-conscious.
“No, it um… it smells like your hair and your lotion, and just… you. I don’t know. Since you can’t be with me at the hospital the whole time, and because you definitely can’t sleep there, at least not in bed with me, I wanted it. Okay?”
Bette handed the tank top back to Tina with a little smile. “I hope you know that was the only thing you could have said to make me let you have this dirty thing and keep me from thinking you had gone completely hormonal on me.”
Tina ignored the remark as she folded the top and placed it in her bag. She was about to zip it closed when Bette placed a hand on her arm.
“Wait a minute. Since you want some of my clothes to take with you, why don’t you take this too?” Bette lifted her shirt over her head and shook out her hair. “Hm?” There was a teasing glint in her eyes.
Tina played along, feigning disinterest in the shirt. “I can think of other articles that would have more of your, uh… shall we say, essence on them.” She tried her best not to smile as she took the shirt from Bette and pulled her closer.
“Okay…” Bette unhooked her bra and handed it over. “How about this?” She leaned over and placed a lazy, yet hungry kiss on Tina’s lips. “Or were you thinking about something else?”
Tina pulled away, her eyes half-closed in pleasure. “Actually… I was.” Bette raised her eyebrows.
“Gimme your socks.”
Bette laughed, pulling Tina to the bed. Tina didn’t mind at all when her bag was shoved impatiently to the floor, its carefully folded contents spilling out over the carpet.
***
It was the next morning, and Tina was in a much better mood. She’d been impressed with Bette’s ability to work around the obstacles to their lovemaking. Her changed body wasn’t a hindrance at all. Tina sighed happily, then struggled into a sitting position, pushing her pillow behind her back. Her joints creaked gratefully into this new position – she’d been on her back all night. She stretched and Bette stirred beside her. Tina paused, waiting to see if Bette was awake, but then she heard a light snore, so she stayed quiet. Tina was in a confessional mood, but this obviously wasn’t the time.

Good to see you back. You captured the stress of pregnancy perfectly. I feel bad for Tina that she feels so unsettled and overwhelmed and for Bette because she is trying to do/say the right thing. Please don’t be gone too long–can’t wait for the birth :)
Tina wont be ptrgnany for ever. so if I was Jodie I would be really be careful around Tina and her family Just hope that all goes well with Tina. thanks for posting
So, will we see a Jodi/Tina showdown in this story…I think we will. Tina has nothing to apologize for. Bette was paid back in full by Jodi for her “indiscretion”. I hope Tina can shake that guilt before they meet again. Well Omalley we had to wait for it, but it was a wonderful update!
i want to see jodie and tina have a nice chat! :)PPS
Mah-velous! Simply, MAH-velous! I can hardly believe it’s only been seven chapters! You capture that frightened anticipation of impending birth perfectly! Bette is being a real sport, suppressing her anal retentive side. Loved your sentence about Bette being narcissistic! Perhaps you are outlining a possible role for MM to play for her “wrap up” two episodes in S6. For the life of me, I cannot see what is left for her to do. You present a plausible solution. Looking forward to your next chapter, whenever you find the time to post! Thanks!
Fantastic writing! You portray the varied emotions so well. I think Tina is right to have a sense of foreboding where Jodi is concerned and that worries me.
glad you are back..thank you for the wonderful update. LMAO that Tina took the bra too. pps
What a way to break your silence, omalley! Welcome back! Again, I’m amazed at the raw, naked and true emotions that your writing evoke. I can literally feel the rough edges of Tina’s conflicting emotions. It’s like she’s navigating through an inner minefield. Hormones can truly be a b*tch. I love your realistic portrayal of Bette & Tina and their relationship. You can see them struggling with their flaws, yet their love for each other prevails, time and time again. Loved Tina’s gift, the return of the Kiki print. Yep, they’ve really come full circle. Loved the packing of Bette’s soiled T-shirt and bra and their playful banter. That’s truly sweet. Many thanks for this update, omalley! Hope it won’t take you long to post again. :>
I’ve been impatiently waiting for an update, and this was definitely worth it! Yeah…I think Tina is gonna have a smackdown with Jodi, and the birth will have its own drama. Whatever it is you write, I’ll be there to read! PPVS!
Wow T is a hormonal mess or is it mass? I remember but in those days no one bothered to explain it to me…seems like another lifetime when Dr’s were ‘still’ the experts on womens bodies and we did as we were told. When I look back, I wonder how I/We survived much of their stuff. Now, Jodi, well irredeemable is how I’d put it: Jodi just doesn’t get ‘Bette & Tina’…it’s got nothing to do with core values, well not really; its pure karma imo. Best T just forgets about Jodi. Now Bette doing all that fixing up is just her version of T packing/repacking that bag: they are both scared of this birthing event imo. But of course alphabette is not going to say that. She’s reverted to being ‘strong’ for Tina’s sake.I thought the old man’s observations were ‘spot on’ Imagine T with 2 active kids like Ange was behaving. A quiet quiet [and she is quiet] would be a blessing to her. Ange is more Bette’s image. Porter Kennard (Parker reminds me of the butler to Lady Penelope, not a nice image) should be quiet and a reflection of his mommy T. Love the story.
i meant ‘a quiet baby like Tina would be a blessing to her’…did i say that a great chapter…pps
Welcome back and thank you for the update. I feel bad for Tina and understand Bette’s desire to be there for her. Having jodi be in the same place with Tina was unsettling. I bet Tom ran off with Max. Still dislike jodi and I love Tina’s attitude throughout the encounter with her.
hi there- i just caught your story and wanted to let you know how much i’m enjoying it. definitely looking forward to more! thanks for the update.
Thanks for the update. I’d been missing this story and I have a feeling we will be seeing Jodi again before the story ends, right?
Great update. I love multiple pages to read! PPS
Can’t wait till Bette tries to find that bra to waer and realizes where it is! PPS
Great Update!!!! I so can not wait until Bette see her bra in Tina’s bag. Thanks PPVS
welcome back! wonderful update! pps
This is so good, so very good. Tina’s emotional surges are so realistic, and Bette’s efficiency as she tries to deal with it all is spot on. I’d like to see Jodi get one of Tina’s hormonal backlashes… I don’t think ol’ Jodes could handle it! I’m so pleased you’ve posted, don’t be away too long. Thanks :)
Jodi just killed the story argh, girl get your bitter ass on somewhere, Bette didnt want you so get over it…and how sweet for Tina to retrieve the KIki smith it was sad when Bette had to give them up on the show
