“What did you say…?” We weren’t that far apart, her eyes darted around me.
“Uh… nothing…, I didn’t say anything…”
I knew she was lying, I didn’t want to force the issue…, but I needed to know…, were my senses right this morning when I felt that breath on my ear as I slept too, did she say something then too…
“T… come here…,” she didn’t move, I hoped my pleading eyes would help…, they didn’t “…please…”
She had a worried look on her face as she got up off the blanket. Her steps toward me were tentative, my eyes never left hers.
We slowly walked to the swings, I placed Angelica into the baby swing and gave her a gentle push, I turned to Tina, she stood before me, silently we looked into one another’s eyes…
“What did you say…, just now…” I whispered.
She looked to the ground, I saw her take a deep breath before she looked back at me, her eyes were filled with unshed tears, “I… can’t…”
“Do you still love me…?”
She gave no reply, but I’m sure her eyes answered for her…
“Do you…, do you still love me Tina…?”
She nodded as her eyes fell to the ground once again, the tears overflowing, I brought my hand to her cheek, softly touching the skin, wiping her tears from her face, I brought her face up to me, so I could look into her eyes.
“Tell me…”
“I can’t…” she closed her eyes, the tears falling faster than before.
“Tell me you love me…”
She opened her eyes, the hazel glistening before me, her voice was the merest whisper, and although we were stood in front of one another, I strained to hear her words.
“I love you…”
I couldn’t help but smile, she loved me…, she still loved me… fuck…, she loved me…
“Bette… I uh… I need time… to… I need… some time…”
“All I need is hope Tina…, that’s all…”
She smiled at me then, a small tentative smile, but with the smile was sadness…, she looked so sad…

Big steps indeed. I think that Tina needs to sort out her stuff with Henry first though. I’m sure you have that covered. Great writing as ever.
Wow, Jo! You just made a lot of ppl dance today. You can manipulate ppl with your writing, this is sure a gift! :PI loved this chapter, and as I said before: steps, bigger steps! Great! Im looking forward to the next one. Take care! :)
Jo, you crack me up. Happy Dance to your own story. Got that right. Will take small baby steps as long as our girls end up together in the end.
lol@Jo’s happy dance! I wonder if Angelica is thinking, “Why did the swing stop?” I’m sure she won’t mind. lol
Let me join you in that happy dance…great chapter!
RESULT!!!!! I got nothin else, except to say happy dances aren’t enough by half.
Well I had a happy dance reading it Thanks PPS
I think we all did a hapy dance after reading this chapter. Another great chapter.
good god….these 1 page things are killin me……lmao….please continue soon…and make it longer…..the girl back to ur house yet??? and did you get in trouble??? later Jo
Awesome! It’s finally out in the open…..Bette loves Tina and Tina loves Bette………but i feel there is another but coming…..don’t keep your fans waiting Jo.
Excellent, as usual. Can’t wait to see how Tina deals with Henry and the rest of it, especially now that Bette’s decided she will wait for her forever.
*finally taking a breath* I think I actually stopped breathing that whole time when Tina said those three most important words.I think there are many times that people just need that….HOPE. I thank the Lword Gods oh yeah, and you too Jo (LMAO), that Tina had the courage to offer Bette that hope. It means the difference between a potential life together and not. Excellent! 5-Stars
I am sure we are all doing the happy dance after this chapter… Well done Jo, looking forward to more.
Jo, happy dance AMEN!!!!!
Thanks for jumping in with both feet. It really is the hardest and sometimes the saddest 3 words said by a human being, “I Love You”. I am not sure why but those words have taken down entire nations and yet have brought entire nations together, go figure.
Bette was brave, and you wrote it so sweetly.
i almost fall of the chair! it was a wonderful chapter and i am doing a happy dance too! they love each other we knew that but they find the courage to said it each other. wao girl you rock!
Just one word…wooooooo….and more..I love that Bette
Jo, I’m with you on the happy dance. My emotional roller coaster right now…1 month to go. : )
At last…and I’m doing a happy dance with you Jo!!!!! at last!!! at last!!!!more soon pleaszzzzz
great chapter like always :) you realy are gifted :) post soon :)
The suspense was killing me there – but WOW! Greedy for more chapters, please.
Okay, I know this is really sad – but I have to admit to doing a happy dance after writing this chapter! LOL
Look what happens when you do your chores. Great chapter!
Mate you’ve outdone yourself….AGAIN!!! When Tina turned away from Bette’s lips, I was ready to cry – so need I say I really loved the ending :o)) For a moment I forgot about my own pain, thank you for that xx
can’t help how fast my heart is beating as well. this chappie was a HUGE leap. i strained to hear tina just as bette did. i did the happy dance just as you did. odd, though, i still have chores.
You’re not the only one doing the happy dance! YES, I’m a very happy reader. They love each other…yeah!!!
Really lovely chapter…
I’m doing my happy dance!
Not sad at all…..I’m choosing to focus on the fact she still loves her!!! Yeh!! Soooooo close,
LOL. You happy danced to your own post?! Ok, it definitely was worth it, so I guess that’s ok. I know I’m doing my happy dance, even through my happy tears… damn you, woman! I’m not even a crier! Sigh… totally made my day.
there were times that i found it hard and real sad reading this story. but for sure, it’s a great one and simply hooked with it. thank you so much!
Wow!yes! Loved this chapter Jo! I’m doing a happy dance too. Now that there’s hope, I too can wait forever to see B&T get back together again! lol :)
Oh God, I’m doing my happy dance too, but at work… And the smile on my face… My boss is gonna think I’m crazy, well more than he already think I am. Thank you so much for this chapter. This story is just wonderful.
Jobadge, I so enjoy your writing, It feels real, like it is really happening between Bette & Tina. I cant even bring myself to watch the show. I watch little parts of it, and that isnt even until the end of the week at times. I dont understand why IC broke those two up, the chemistry is unreal with them. I think it will go well with Bette & Jodi too. I mean it is Bette right. But it is just not the same. But thats TV. Anyway guess I will stick to fanfic. Thank you
Oh yeah! I love the steps their taking. I am so ready for them to get back together but i know it will take some time :D Great update, PPS.
… and that’s how this is done!!! You can definitely do your happy dance, Jo. Twice!… Cause this was just brillant! YAY…
Bust my buttons! Not only has Tina, very softly but directly, voiced her love for Bette, she’s even admitted to being a shithead (well, almost), which is why she’s been so infuriating. And we all know acceptance is the first step to recovery. Too bad about the glancing kiss, though. I’m sure her aim will improve with time and practice. And please, can we stay at the park a little longer? Its 10AM, and while its sunny, its also -1F/-18C.
WELL HAVE MERCY! We are moving forward. Awesome chapter…I held my breath…baby steps Tina…Bette is willing to wait for you and so are we. More please (since the chores are done)
Finally, light at the end of the tunnel. Let’s hope it doesn’t take Tina too much time to get things into motion.
YYYYAAAAAYYYY! PROGRESS. Oh, Jo… this was just incredible. Trust me there’s happy shouting AND dancing involved on my part… LOL… Time, hope, and progress – what more can we ask for!? Now Tina better get to work… there are lots of things she needs to figure out… and I’m guessing a very difficult conversation with Henry is coming up. Thank you for this…
It’s always nice when Tina uses actual words to voice how she is actually feeling.
WOW!!!! Jo, This Chapter was just wonderful. Thanks PPS
Hey Jo, These last chapters have been wonderful as Tina and Bette slowly admit to themselves the depth of their connection. Loving someone isn’t enough to make it happy-ever-after but it is a great place to start. Tina and Bette need to focus on Angelica right now and on being the best moms that they can be. Then given some time and reflection they may be able to tentatively rekindle their romance. I do hope so. Now I want to read Tina’s point of view given her hopeful and hurtful conversation with Bette. Magnificent melodrama from a majestical mistress. Thank you so much for brightening my day, Your Loyal Fan.
Oh yea!Thank you Jo, there is hope!pps
yay finally jo the truth will come out!! at least for tina! thanks
Awesome, this is what we all waiting for and can’t wait to see more, thanks!
