“Yeah, today was a good day. I told you there was no need to be nervous.” Bette smiled as she adjusted the king-size pillow she was resting on.
“I can’t believe Shane met someone at the Ralph’s.” Tina chuckled.
“You know Shane. She’s a chick magnet, it doesn’t matter which coast she’s on.”
“I gave her a key. I hope she doesn’t get lost.”
“She’ll be fine.” Bette reached for Tina’s hand. “Come to bed.”
Tina pulled back the covers and climbed in the bed. She adjusted her pillows and turned to Bette. “Is there anything you want to do tomorrow?”
“Nothing I can think of at the moment.” Bette leaned forward and caressed Tina’s cheek. “I love your place.” She looked around the room. “The set up looks familiar.”
“I was wondering if you were going to noticed it or not.”
“The only thing that’s different is the fireplace. I would love to get a painting for you to go over the mantel if you’ll let me…like a house warming gift.”
“You don’t have to do that.”
“I know, but I’d like too.”
“Okay.” Tina scooted closer to Bette. She played with the hem of the tank top Bette was wearing.
“Tee?” Bette wanted to voice what had been on her mind earlier.
“Mmm?” She looked up at Bette.
“Earlier, I asked Shane if she thought you and I were moving too fast.” She stilled Tina’s hands on the hem of her shirt.
“You did? Do you think we’re moving too fast?” Although she tried to hide her nervousness, it was still evident in her eyes.
“What? No, of course not. She said it was providence.” Bette noticed the nervousness and smoothed the furrow on Tina’s forehead with a kiss “We’re okay,” she smiled at the blonde. “I love you so much, T. I just want everything to be perfect.”
“There’s no such thing as perfect, but we came pretty close the first time around. I mean, yeah, we had our highs and lows…anyway, this time it’ll be better because we’re older and we know what life was like without each other.” She let out a sigh, “I never want to experience that again…life without you.” Tears pooled in her eyes. “I won’t survive it a second time,” she admitted.
“Nor I,” Bette confessed. “Right here, right now. I pledge myself to you. I promise to be open and honest. I promise to make us a priority.” Bette’s throat tightened with emotion. “I prom…”
“Shhh…just love me, Bette…that’s all I ask.” Tina’s own throat had begun to tighten and her eyes began to fill with tears as she listened to Bette declare her promises. “Just love me and I promise to do the same…forever."

First one mmmm.Well i have enjoyed this story and i find it has moved along.Still more to tell.Possibly you should take a step back for a while and come back to it when you feel refreshed.I have enjoyed it and i am sure others have as well.
Hey t, you’ve got nothing to worry about, the story is flowing nicely. Just take your time and don’t rush, will be here patiently waiting… post soon
Nothing wrong with the pace of the story. If you have an endpoint to the plot that you have in mind, it’s just working out how you get there, and if the things you wanted to see happen along the way are happening. Maybe a step back and looking at it with fresh eyes will help, but I’m definitely enjoying the story. Thanks, tg. :)
Great pace to the story. No worries, loved it. Thanks
Im one of ur silent readers and just want to say that u r doing a great job on this one and just take ur time!
That’s awesome, love it!
You’re doing a great job with the story. Enjoying the story and I always look for a new chapter when I come to the site. The pace is just right. You might want to make an outline of the prior chapters and also for the rest of the story and you will probably find that you are on pace with what you wanted to happen in the story then just continue the outline for the rest of the story and you will now what you want to happen next and the fillers that you will want to add. Don’t worry, you are doing a wonderful job and I LOVE THIS STORY. I always want to see them together. Take your time but keep writing. lol Thanks.
Just a quick note to offer encouragement. Write what occurs to you and it will all fall into place. No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should…
I love your story,nothing wrong with your writing.Take your time I ‘m waiting.
That was a sweet chapter……it is flowing nicely I like it just take your time….maybe you can start on something new while you are waiting on something for that one
Not being a writer I am unsure of your process for getting a story from inception to paper to conclusion! As a reader I enjoy the style of the story, it reads smoothly, without gaps where I am left wondering how that just happened! As for pace, I have two thoughts..if it is the pace of Tina/Bette’s reuniting in the story I think it is good…if you mean how often the chapters appear here, well, I am always looking for another chapter in this story and miss it when I see it is not listed! There are a few stories I really miss when they are not in the list of the day and this is one of them! Keep on keeping on you are doing a great job for this reader!
Excellent update love it.thank you
