    Hindsight – Chapter 28

     

     

    “Come here…” I pulled her into my arms, holding her close to my furiously beating heart, I felt her arms around me then, pulling me tighter as her emotions overflowed.

     

     

    I buried my face in her hair, feeling my own eyes well, she still loved me, isn’t that what she said, that she loved me… it was the merest whisper, but I’m sure I heard her right.

     

     

    I moved my mouth to her ear and I whispered to her, “tell me again…”

     

     

    I felt her smile against me as she heard the words…, she brought her face to mine, smiling through her tears, “I love you…”

     

     

    She leaned toward me, closer than we had been in a long time, her lips were so close, but she spoke to me, I thought she was going to kiss me, but her words were precise and assured, “please… give me time Bette… I have so much… shit… going on in my head right now…”

     

     

    “T… baby…, I’ll wait for you forever…” I smiled and leaned closer to her, but she turned her head slightly and my lips grazed her cheek.

     

     

    I pulled back to look at her, my eyes questioning on why she did that.

     

     

    “I… can’t do that… I’m sorry…”

     

     

    “Why…?” I whispered.

     

     

    “There are things… I need to… take care of Bette…, I just can’t step back to how things were…”

     

     

    “I uh… I’m sorry, I didn’t… mean to push you…”  I felt the lump in my throat appear…, I stepped back slightly, suddenly finding the closeness overbearing, god…, my mind and my heart were in overdrive…, we had come to the park for a family picnic and not only had I told her I would love her forever, but she had told me she loved me too… Fuck…, fuck, fuck, fuck…

     

     

    “Its okay…, it’s just…” she looked unsure of her words…

     

     

    “I know…” and I did, she didn’t need to spell it out… time…, she needed time, “I understand…”

     

     

    “I’m sorry…”

     

     

    I sighed but I smiled at her, “there’s no need…”

     

     

    I looked at her face, searching the face that haunted my every moment…, god… I loved her so much, she returned the smile and this time it reached her eyes, she loved me…, I loved her and she loved me back…

     

     

    I felt her slip her hand into mine, as our fingers entwined I felt the squeeze she gave me, I returned the gesture as she leaned forward, her voice was quiet, “I love you Bette…” and with those words, she leaned even closer, her lips were of the gentlest fleeting touch, but they were against mine and that gave me hope… its all I needed…

     

     

    Time and hope…, I had both of those things aplenty, and I couldn’t but help how fast my heart was beating.

    1. 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! :)

    2. 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

    3. 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.

    4. *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

    5. 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.

    6. 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!

    7. 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

    8. 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.

    9. 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.

    10. 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 :)

    11. 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.

    12. 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

    13. 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.

    14. 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)

    15. 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…

    16. 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.
