    Author Notes:

    What the brunette didn’t know was that Tina returned to her room.

    “It’s Bette, Tina interrupted her friend.  ”The only person who calls her “Elizabeth” is her father.”

    Sue smiled at her friend. “Bette, she was calling for you when she was first brought in. When you came into the room wasn’t the first time she was calling out for you. Joe and Frank, the two EMTs who brought her in, said that was all she was saying…calling for you and how it hurts…do you know what that means?”

    “No, I don’t. Bette doesn’t like hospitals. She hasn’t liked them since I had…um…since I had a miscarriage.” Tina wiped away the tears that quickly gathered. She cleared her throat as she stood. “Come on, let’s bring her to telemetry.”

    *****

    It was just past midnight when Tina was finally able to check on Bette. The transfer to the telemetry unit earlier went smoothly. Andrea had followed them in the elevator where there was an awkward silence. The only sound in the elevator was the dinging of the elevator bell as it passed each floor. Tina was thankful that the telemetry unit was only three floors away from the E.R. department and she was sure that she wasn’t the only one that was thankful for that fact by the sighs heard as the elevator doors opened.

    Tina entered Bette’s dimly lit room as quietly as she could. She kept her eyes on the sleeping brunette as she walked toward the head of the bed. She observed the monitor displaying her former lover’s vital signs.

    Bette stirred in bed and opened her eyes briefly to see Tina standing next to her. Not knowing whether or not she was dreaming she blinked her eyes a few more times to see the blonde still standing there. "Hi," she murmured with a smile.

    “Hi,” whispered Tina, “I’m sorry I woke you. I just wanted to see how you were doing before I went home.”

    “Is your shift over?” Bette tried to look for the control to raise the head.

    Tina realized what Bette was looking for and went to hand her the remote that was hanging off the bed railing. Their fingers brushed against each other. Static jolting both hearts with an electric shock like what a defibrillator would do. Both women pulled back their hands and let the remote control fall on the bed. Neither of them didn’t know what to think of what just happened or were they both afraid to think of what could happen. Is it possible? Could that connection they once shared still be there? What if?

    9. Thank you for the great update. My comment to the previous chapter on Bette being guilty too was meant as a reply to other comments, and not directed to Bette.

    11. Can I assume the silent reaching for each other is an unconscious response to memories of their past together? Or is it a ‘time heals all wounds’ kind of scenario, and Bette is allowing her feelings for Tina to come to the surface? Cheating isn’t the endgame that some make it out to be…and for some reason Tina (in the show and seemingly in your story) is more ‘judged’ for cheating with a man than Bette is for cheating with a woman. I have more thoughts on the matter…but not for public consumption.

    12. I don’t know why I got that impression that Tina had been celibate… clearly not! That’s neither here nor there, though. It will be very interesting to see if they continue to seek each other out and how they’ll interact when and if they do see each other from this point forward. Thanks for the post, tg. :)

    13. Welcome to “down the shore”! Hope you put their house in Asbury Park! Gayest town on the shore! Great shops! Mucho Galleries! Craftsmen! and of course the famous boardwalk and coolest beaches and NIGHTLIFE! Lotsa music here! Come one…LoL
