“After all that and more, I hate myself for hurting you. For putting you through it- once more. Please Bette… Please believe me…”
Pleading. Begging. On her knees. It reminded her of… Isa… How she missed her… Especially now, it was like she never left her twin. The twinkle in her eye reflected her Isa…
“I love you…”
Love. A constant struggle she had all her life. This she knew. She was taught only to receive the love that she felt worthy of. Love wasn’t something that came naturally to Bette. It came easy when she was younger and Isabelle would say she loved something and being her competitive self, Bette would follow suit only to come up with an outrageous proclaim of love- for pussy-cats.
In that split second, she felt her again. Do you love her? She breathed deep, wanting to savour this indescribable intuition. Tell her… Don’t be afraid. I love you…
“I love you too…”
In that moment, she wasn’t sure… If she had responded to Tina or Isa… or both. It didn’t matter.
She was worth it. Bette welcomed the kiss that followed. In between, Tina slipped in a few more love confessions.

“We should do it.” The conviction in her voice wasn’t lacking. The seriousness scared Alice a bit.
“Really?”
‘Why!?!’ The blonde literally had to bite back the exasperated scream.
“Yeah… Dana would’ve… She would’ve wanted to do it…” Shane met her eyes briefly, signalling she knew exactly who the blonde was missing a while ago.
“Ok. We’ll get the others tomorrow. I’m not dragging my booty there without company and your fatty one isn’t going to be enough…” Shane chuckled and got busy with the forms. She took in the information and turned to her side to engage the other brunette in their company. Alice smiled knowingly and slipped away from them.
‘Who would’ve thought… Thirty-fucking-hour famine… God. I love you Dana…’

“Baby…” She broke their kiss with deep breaths shared in between gentler kisses, aiming to ease them both slowly away from their intense tonsil hockey. A bitter taste resonated and she felt bad. It had been forgotten. The news that she had wanted to tell but had been so effectively forgotten the past two days. She needed to tell her. It’s now or never…
“Bette, he died…”
No. It was forgotten. I forgot. Buried. Gone. Don’t…. Please, don’t come back…

Whoa! Who died?
powerful and sad…i hope everyone will find peace and happiness soon…love cummings poetry too…
Another great update! This is truly sad. Bette will get better, won’t she?Tibette needs to be victorious with a happy ending. PPVVS
If “he” is who I think he is… then I almost want to say that death is a release he maybe didn’t deserve. But maybe that’s what Bette might need to start healing and moving on. Great update, thanks MsH. (and I love e.e. cummings)
Interesting story, but too vague. I do hope that eventually you plan to tie everything together and not leave things open to interpretation. I, for one, would like a clear-cut explanation on everything. Also, earlier in the story, you mentioned that Alice, Shane, and Helena were in the planet wanting an explanation from Kit about what happened to Bette and had ended up giving her resigned expressions when she wouldn’t. Now you are making like no one has ever met Helena before and she just showed up. It doesn’t make any sense and you should probably go back in the story and edit it so that it does. If this story is supposed to be somewhere between the third and fourth season, then Helena would have been a part of the group anyway according to the show’s timeline.
Great update the story is great! So sad and hopeful at the same time. Plus ee cummings poetry magical!
Loved that opening you’ve written about love. So true. Great update by the way. I, too hopes that everyone would find peace. Update soon!
loved it, pps!
