“It is. Everyone seems happy. It’s not every day two such good kids get married.”
“I know.”
“It’s like…” Eddie paused. “Everyone knows they belong together. I have to say, I’m thrilled, myself. Your Angelica is a treasure. My Derek couldn’t have found a better wife.”
“She is. Derek is one of the good ones. I just know they’re going to be happy together.”
“Do you believe in fate?”
The question startled Tina more than it should have. Her memory immediately illuminated the last time someone had asked her that question. She pulled her mind out of the past and looked at Eddie curiously.
“I did. Once. Why do you ask?”
“I believe in it. No other reason these two should have met. It was meant to be.”
Tina smiled wryly. “You may be right. But I think our two have something more important that fortune smiling at them on their side.”
“What’s that?”
“Love.”
***
The music began and Tina took a deep breath. She took one last glance back at Angelica, whose almost tangible happiness and excitement sent a pang to her heart. Their eyes met, and Tina smiled. I love you so much, Tina thought. Angelica seemed to understand, and nodded at Tina once, her eyes sparkling.
“Here we go,” Eddie murmured.
They walked down the aisle together, Tina on the side where Angelica’s friends and extended family were gathered, and Eddie on the other. Tina’s smile never wavered as she set one foot in front of the other in the slow, stately march to the first pew of the church. Her eyes were less steady, and instead of looking ahead, they restlessly moved among the faces, looking for the one she knew wasn’t there.
Do you believe in fate?
She had, once. She had believed that two people could be meant for each other in a way that no obstacle could keep them apart. She had believed she had found the one she was meant to be with, forever. She sought the face that had once smiled so beguilingly at her, asking her that very question on their first real date. Do you believe in fate? I do. How else could we have found each other?

Please continue, I’m intrigued.
Thanks… nicely written and interesting storyline.
Beautifully written. I hope you will either continue with this story or write others. You obviously have a talent for it. I can understand Bette leaving Tina and ending a bad relationship that just wasn’t working for her instead of staying and ignoring the problems but sad that her relationship, love and support of Angelica was so conditional that she would abandon her when Angie didn’t meet her expectations. It was as if she placed more value on her ambitions for Angie than Angie’s own happiness. Bette has her freedom but at what cost? On another note as much as characters are portrayed differently I never believe a Bette character would turn her back on her child no matter what. I’ve read so many stories where Tina takes Angie away and whether Bette knows of her existence or not she always has a heart for her baby so it was kind of hard to read that she wouldn’t be there for Angie on her special day even if she didn’t agree with her choices. Thanks for the story.
Interesting story here. It seems you turned Bette into the female version of Melvin. I can understand her letting go of her bad relationship with Tina but I could never really see her letting go of Angelica for anything.
Wonderfully written. thank you.
I’ve been waiting for you to enter my life green apple. You nailed the controlling part of Bette’s personality. Although, I don’t know if she would have ditched the wedding but you never know. So true on the relationship part, I agree with every word. Loved this, thank you
Very interesting. I believe that Bette and Tina share an extraordinary connection, but a part of me also believes that Tina would have gone the safe sane route post-season 1. You have a talent for storytelling. I hope to read more from you.
You must help them find their way back to each other.
good written story and intrigued! I’m a tibetter, so it’s the kind of story-line I rarely read. But still, I’ve been drawn to since first page. And it end well, sad but logical with understanding. maybe u will consider writing another story? thx for sharing
Thank you,sad story.
Loved the writing, but the circumstances of the story made me sad. I do hope Tina tells Angie that Bette was there after all (or, better yet, Bette herself). Thanks for posting. :)
No words can express the pain.in my heart i feel….that part about bette stopping then getting in the car and tina finally let go omg it kills me…and i agree i can never see bette disowning angelica in any way, her relationship with tina yea but angie of course not bette loves her in ways you cant express…i hope you write more and they at least be a family in the end probably not in the tibette way but family at the very least
