Momentarily distracted by Tinas question it wasnt the
anger that Bette expected she looked at Tina with confusion on her face. Well not any that I dont think you know
about already. You know my fear of being
deserted, my tremendous jealousy about anyone that looks at you or Anna funny
or my inability to share those kinds of things.
But Tina you need to hear me I have done a lot of things in your behalf
and well some of these are really big. I
need you to understand that. Bette now is desperate to get Tina to understand
the scope of this.
Tina just stares at Bette as she is trying to grasp just
what Bette means. Something about the
urgency which Bette is pointing this out makes Tina think twice. Her first reaction is to forgive Bette so
they can move forward but there must be more to it if Bette is dwelling on it
so. What could you have possibly done
Bette that could be that enormous? Tina asks with the look of question in her
face.
The look of terror that now is firmly planted on Bettes
face make Tina a little more fearful.
Bette what. now you are scaring me.
This isnt anything bad is it?
Bette is sitting there looking at Tina and she just cant
sit still anymore and bounces up and paces around the kitchen a little. This is the moment of truth and Bette cant
bear the thought that after this Tina would by all rights throw her out and
want nothing to do with her. Bette can
feel Tinas eyes following her as she paces.
Stopping in front of her Bette looks at Tina Yes I mean NO I mean
well No in that you always had a choice but yes in that I have manipulated
the course of your future in ways that I thought would make you happy. Bette
goes on to explain once again that Tina always had options.
As Bette is talking, Tinas mind is not processing any of
what she is now saying having come to a halt on the word manipulated. Was Bette controlling me again? Can she never let go?
Bette what makes you think that you can control everything
you want? Who made you GOD? Tina spits
out as Bette was still talking.
Bette realizes immediately that this is the bad reaction
that she feared. Tina please.. Tina I
wasnt controlling No Tina please just hear me out. Bette is desperately pleading with Tina.
Tina jumps up herself as now it felt like Bette was towering
over her and she didnt like that feeling.
What have you done Bette? Tina screams.
Tina please just listen please. Bette says quickly as she
is putting both hands, palms out in a motion signaling halt. I put opportunities in your way. Thats all I did. You either made them happen or not. It was all YOU not ME. I just tried to stack the deck in your favor,
thats all.
Tina stood in the kitchen trying to calm herself so she
could hear Bette but all that kept going through her head was that this new
Bette was just an act. That she hasnt
changed a bit. It started in the pit of
her stomach and radiated out through out her body, Tina was now pissed off,
raging mad at the mere thought that Bette had deceived her once again and she
had fallen for it. This anger had Tina
trembling as a wave a fury overcame her and all she could see was Bettes
betrayal once again. Balling her fists
up tightly, Tina headed towards the front door.
Reaching it she threw it open with a force that startled even her. The door slammed into the side wall with such
force it created a huge bang that could be heard through out the house. The door created a noise loud enough that
Anna heard it and began to cry. Tina
turned to address Bette I think you need to leave, right now. As Tina is
saying this she is forcefully pointing out the door to demonstrate the path she
wants Bette to take.
Bette was still in the kitchen, it was as if her feet were
rooted there. She couldnt and didnt
want to move. With Tina now staring at
her with anger and venom in her eyes, Bette just looked back.
Just then Anna screamed again a frightened wail that broke
into both of there thoughts. Tina began
to move to Annas room, leaving Bette standing still rooted to the floor.

Bette needs to stay and explain everything.
How quickly the tables turn. Wasn’t it just a chapter or so ago that Bette was not giving Tina that chance to explain her actions? I hope that Tina sees that.
Poor choice of words on Bette’s part, she used the one word that has a hair trigger for Tina. The two of them talking together is like navigating a minefield.
Yes, Bette orchestrated scenarios that would benefit Tina. But like she said, ultimately the decisions were Tina’s. Tina needs to realize that Bette did the most selfless thing…she provided opportunities for Tina and Anna risking the ultimate sacrifice – their lives together.
Wonderful story as usual and thank you for no Alice, at least for the moment. My heart is breaking for Bette. I am now beyond blood pressure medicine, I need something with a stronger sedative quality.
Jwet we had a blast this weekend thanks to you guys for non-stop fun.
Now, will the pain stop for B&T? Bette did the right thing by coming clean, hope Tina can learn to appreciate the fresh scent of honesty Bette is now wearing.
Jo, looking forward to hanging out in NYC…cheers.
so drama queen you let us here hangging huh??? Another excellent chapter Jwet, can’t wait
Yeah, an update! Man it would have been nice if Tina had heard Bette out. Of course once she hears her out, Tina should probably been even angrier. Bette was very manipulative. I’m sure her intentions were good, but as the saying goes, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Awesome story, by the way!
Oh Jwet, you’re my all tyme fave fanfic author so I doubt you will never disappoint me but can Tina please chill for a moment and listen. She fears Bette “change” have been feigned yet it is her actions that indicate that she has changed. I thought she was suppose to be open to Bette and allow the opportunity to bear her soul to her.
Save by the crying baby, I’ll sure Bette is grateful to her baby. Hopefully the baby is sick and then Tina sees Bette’s concern for the baby and her as proof of Bette’s change and commitment to family. I agree with the others Bette should tell Tina about being in the delivery room. This would further illustrates Bette’s commitment to her family and her new ability to stand back and respect Tina’s feelings while caring for her family from afar.
Jwet you are scaring me. Tina just needs to calm down and understand. I know with you writing everything will turn out perfect. Loving it!!
OMG jwet ur killin me here..the anticipation!! jeez plz hurry!
what the fuck happen……..she should tie tina up and make her listen……..damn things were going so good……..post soon
Couldnt Tina have even heard Bette out it was great and realistic…lol but you need to make things better between them pleaseeee lol sorry just the romantic in me .. i do trust you lol
Ahhhh, make it okay, make Tina listen and understand. Please post soon
Poor Bette…she must now feel that she lost Tina and Anna without even getting to confess yet. Tina needs a time out to cool off! I wonder what would make Tina more upset: Bette leaving like she told her to, or Bette staying to “fight for her”
Again, Great Update
Looking forward to the next one!
Was so happy to see an update from you, but why, oh why do you torture us so! LOL I’m trusting that you will make things better for these two!
you are killing me — Tina has got to understand the intention behind Bette’s actions — especially that it was done before there was a hope of a close reconciliation — I know this is just the thing to piss Tina off — but she has to understand the depth of bette’s love……..please……
Ah……Jwet, I had a little de-ja-vue on reading this, thank you LOL!!
Great update, as usual. Lets hope Bette gets to say her whole piece now that she has mentally prepared herself for it!
I also do agree with another commentor, as I’ve also mentioned in a previous comment, that I believe Bette should also tell Tina about being at Anna’s birth. That is just about the most special moment that these two could ever get to share, the birth of their daughter, I’m sure this would bring another level of closeness to them knowing that this special time was actually shared. I’m sure that Tina, out of all of Anna’s milestones, would of wanted Bette to of been at the birth more than anything.
Keep it coming mate, great job.
BTW, I know understand why Down Low wasn’t emailing me at the weekend – she was with you!!!!
I was looking foward to this new chapter and you did not dissapoint.I have enjoyed this story from the beginning.PLeeese get Bette to make Tina listen to her.Bette needs to fight for what she wants.
Hey Jwet Thanks for posted again I’m really sad about this again OMG! back to the aegis again well I hope Tina listen to Bette now each getting INTENSE again OMG! Hey jwet I’m just really Happy to see you’re Story again I love it Please post soon.
OMG and Bette hasn’t even told her what she did……maybe now it’s Alice’s turn to help make Tina realise what a sacrifice Bette made for love!
it was so good to see your post and then I started reading and after awhile I was like”Oh no,no.. not now when Bett managed to fully open for the first time..” Jwet you made my level of adrenaline increased. Please let Tina see the bright side of B’s behaviour. I know you will at the end, you’re Tibetter:)Great chapter!
You can’t leave us hanging there….. Tina needs to slow down and listen and Bette needs to stop beating around the bush,….POST SOON…Please
Come on, pleas don’t TEASE us like this. Bette needs to stand her ground until she says what she came to say. What the hay, Tina is already pissed off, so you might as well spit it all out and let her chew on it. This should INCLUDE (Please) the fact that she was there when Anna was born. In fact that may be Bette’s only trump card. Hey, now is the time to play it. After hearing all that she has to say, Tina will eventually cool down ( if not now, then within the next couple of days). PLEASE pretty PLEASE post again SOON — Love this story.
Damn…I knew this conversation would be intense but Tina needs to listen to Bette and try and understand her motives…..She should know by now how Bette’s mind works…even if it is a bit misdirected and ever the Alpha!
Lordy, lordy, lordy! OK I see that I have my work cut out for me. OK, insert me right next to Tina’s heart. This is proabaly what’s going through T’s head,”Manipulate? Control? Hasn’t she realised that that behaviour helped bring us to our end? How could she? Why would she? I thought she changed?” And I’ll (Barrie) whisper to Tina and tell her,”But she has changed. Bette told you that one of her biggest fears is being desserted yet she still went out of her way to make sure that you and Anna would be able to make a life without her. She was scared to tell you because she knows now that maybe she was wrong to have gone about it in that manner. The only way she’d be scared to tell you is if she has really changed and understood what her controlling ways of the past resulted in. The whole fact that she’s coming clean is a testimony to the new Bette. You’re entitled to your knee-jerk reaction Tina but simmer down and think. If Bette hasn’t changed, why would she tell you now or ever? She’s taking that risk of being desserted by telling you what she’s done. Her life is no longer about her happiness with you it’s ONLY about yours and Anna’s happiness. And if that means that she has to do that from Afar then so be it.”
for the love of god jwet. i know there has to be drama but …. you h ad best be the biggest and best tibette shipper there is or there is gonna be alot of tibette shippers running after you screaming. this had better turn out for the best. i know she needed to tell her but tina needs to calm the hell down and listen with her heart not her head. and dayum girl you best be posting, oh and now, sounds good.
K
Great chapter, maybe Tina should have let her actually talk before she got mad lol. Love it as always.
OK it’s your fault if a fall again. You left me hanging on the edge of my seat. I am going to stay there until you post again with good news. Is the baby ok? Well Tina really let Bette leave?
Tune in next time From Afar. Bette and Tina kissing madly hugging their daughter promising to stay together forever and ever… We interrupt this broadcast for BREAKING NEWS. Bette and Tina, I repeat Bette and Tina have reconciled. Now back to the Presidential address.
Ah, woo gotta love it! Drama, such drama. You know you love it, we all do. Heh.
Geez, Tina! Ya didn’t even let her finish her thought. Damn! Poor Bette. I was hoping that Tina would have reacted differently than I had feared she would…I mean, I was thinking, “Maybe she would just look at Bette and say, ‘Is that all it was? Let’s have some tea and then get freaky!” Please post soon and get them talking soon. This is too good!!!! THanks!
ok 1) Where have you been? 2) I understand Tina is pissed and all, about something she doesnt know yet, but she needs to pipe the heel down. and 3) Why is the baby crying like shes in distress. And whats the cliffy about? your killing me here. Excellent update, i guess there will be no B&T reconcilliation in this story, DAMN!!!
It was too late for them to be talking seriously. Bette should have made the booty call and then brought up ‘the talk’ over coffee and morning afterglow. But, noooooooooo! Oh well, oh drama!
I hope Tina goes and gets Anna’s binky. I hope Bette stays the night to calm Anna and Tina down. I hope Irene is not struck blind by the debauchery she sees over at Shane’s!
BTW, THANK YOU for not subjecting Bette or Tina to morbid injury or possible horrid death in your story. This site has had me in more hospital emergency rooms than Noah Wylie! Girl, I feel like I should just put on some scrubs before I boot up the computer in the morning!
The complex drama of human emotions is more than entertaining enough for me right now. And you are bringing that. I agree with others, Bette should let Tina know she was the one who was present at Anna’s birth. That should cinch the deal. Tina should see Bette’s ‘manipulation’ as an act of ultimate love – for her and for Anna.
Okay.
Thanks for the update!
The moment I have been waiting for and you cut it short! The suspense – grrrrrrr. Great chapter though!
Tina, Tina, Tina. Where’s that Xanax. Perhaps you take one, or smoke some of Alice’s finest, and then you can have a talk with Bette.
See I know your not done with alice yet! I know this may sound really bad, but so I want Alice to tell Tina… I think it would make Tina feel really bad about gettin all mad before she even knows whats going on… oh yeah more stoned Alice!!!
And just so you know, the weekdays just don’t start out right without reading a post from you…
what a chapter, as always you have me glued with all this drama, i wish i was in your head to see how this is going to end, cant wait till friday
That is sooooo not right to leave us hanging right exactly THERE!!! You sould be sent for a time out!!!! PLS don’t leave me hanging too long
ok J just cause your’e a pot head doess’n mean you forgt things LOL when I wake up from a high in take of weed I’m thristy, tried and run down,and my mouth taste and feels like cotton mouth. but unless I have drank a lot I can remember everything that happen. Sometimes it kinda fuzzy but it’s all there and comes back after some water and food intake. Well J you started to have Bette tell tina what’s going on I think Irene will interupt next time bette starts to explain. maybe bette should take a couple of hit before she tries to talk to tina. I think I can wait until friday but not sure!
You are the best…but you had to leave me at the edge of the seat again! I’ve been checking fan fic page dozens of times a day just to check if you’ve posted the latest chapter! Please post soon….Loving this story.
Geez. Dyke drama or what. It’s so worth the wait but torture waiting at the same time!
Hi Jwet, just got back from a trip and was able to read the last 3 posts, wow. I’m a bit torn between Bette’s wanting to come clean and Tina’s anger of being manipulated. I wonder if Bette could have done things differently…
As much as I love these two I’m kinda siding with Tina. I can’t wait to see how you are going to settle this.
Jwet thanks for sharing your story and regardless the outcome I’m a fan… Can’t wait till friday to see what happens, and please don’t let Alice make things worse, that girl is getting on my nerves :-)
Thanks
Holy confusion BATMAN…man the things will became pretty ugly for Bette, but Tina dosent even let her talk and try to explain herself i hope Tina will be mature enought to let Bette talk.. i know she has the right to be angry and think that Bette dosent change but also she need to listen first and draw a conclusion later and another even if she still be mad with Bette she has no right to take Anna away from her….and with R$100 million bucks Bette could buy the Louvre for herself..lol..Jwet you are mean..have i said that??? cuz you are..lol..amazing chapter..post soon very soon :-P
Hey Jwet, woah!!!! Tina is in my bad books….babies don’t like to be woken up like that….special blankie to the rescue and some soothing words….from BETTE i hope….oh, it is going to be a long night…
Jwet so so so worth the wait.
Thank you.
Oh my heart.. Good update. More soon please.
I don’t think Bette won this race at all! Oh, my poor heart…did I tell you I have a heart condition? Nah. The drama! You weave a very good tale; at first, I just wanted Tina to be all loving and forgiving, but realize, yeah, she needs to be angry first.
Anna to save the day; for Bette’s sake, she’ll be the only one to sooth her and Tina will see how much love Bette has for herself and Anna.
Great chapter and I’m glad all is well.
Enjoy your short trip.
JWet,
Wow-wee, the tension is tangible here.
What a tease you are stopping at this point! And using Anna, shame on you (Just kidding)
If Tina has exploded at this little juicy morsel how on earth is she going to react when the truth comes out? Bette had better stand way back to avoid being blown over.
This whole confession is beautifully written as always. Your have such a flair for the dramatic. I can’t wait for the next chapters to see where this whole scene goes.
Today’s thoughts:
Does Bette have enough health insurance to cover her fallout of this admission? Will Tina be added to the Guinness Book of Records for the loudest human scream? Will the neighbors all appear to listen in? Will the blinds and curtains be twitching? What land of debauchery and decadence will Irene enter at Shane’s party? Will Tina return to the land of the sane and let Bette tell her tale? Are Alice and Dana on their way over (surely they hear the scream too)?
Roll on Def Con 5.
Will be away until Monday so will catch up with the story and you then,
Your Loyal Fan
jwet, OMG! you can’t just leave me hanging…i was hoping to see it resolved, but you had to cut it short…tsk tsk, nooo j/p…great chapter. can’t wait to see how it all plays out in the end.
SHE REAL DIDN’T EVEN GET TO TELL HER YET.TINA WAS A BIT HASTY..PLEASE MAKE IT BETTER…POST RAL SOOOOOOON…….
You must think me the world’s slowest reader…in fact I haven’t been able to read much lately, chaos around the house! But I’m on Chapter 64 and I so love this story. You do such a lovely job of the dialogue, I can’t even relay how real it seems to me. I am very much looking forward to continuing to catch up – so well written. Thank you!
Hello, Jwet: I am so into this story that I can’t wait for the next post. Now Jwet I loved your comment in your marquee:). I hope that you enjoy your visit in my neck oof the woods…for the weather isn’t too good right now..Be safe and I’ll catch the next chapter. Excellent job.
OMG!! C’mon T, hear the girl out…GOODNESS, you’re killing me here JWET! LOL…please, please update soon!
This is sad!
Whoa, the drama you weave, Jwet!! One moment there’s hope, one moment the lie that’s struggling to be set free, the love, the angst, love them all. You’ve been adeptly building all these up throughout the numerous chapters but you still keep us all hanging on the edge of the cliff. Wonderful, wonderful story telling. If you ever revisit old chapters for comments, you’ll see that I’m addicted to this story as I’m still up trying to read one chapter after another after another…. ;-)
