Hindsight – Chapter 29
She smiled, that killer melt smile that told me she couldn’t believe I had uttered the words she had longed to hear, but there were complications in my life at this moment in time and she needed to know that, she needed to know I loved her…, but she needed to know I had so many things to come to terms with and sort out before I could act upon the declaration I had just made to her.
“Bette… I uh… I need time… to… I need… some time…”
“All I need is hope Tina…, that’s all…”
I smiled at her, I had hope too… I was just going to find it hard to come to terms with how I had treated her, how I had behaved…
“Come here…” she pulled me into her arms, holding me close to her, I couldn’t hold my emotions together, she had pulled at the strings around my heart, how could she always do that to me… reach in and touch places that no one had ever touched before, she had completely dismantled me, that wall I had built around myself when I walked out on her…, she had systematically ripped that wall down and touched the place I tried so hard to protect from her…
I felt her face in my hair, I felt her arms pulling me closer, I felt her lips near my ear, her breath whispering against me…
“Tell me again…” she whispered, I felt the warmth of her words against my skin, she could still make the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.
I smiled at her request to hear the words once again, almost wanting to verify what I had already told her, maybe the disbelief that I had actually said it to her…, “I love you…”
We leaned toward one another, I thought she was going to kiss me, but something stopped me, I couldn’t just fall back into her arms, it would be too easy to do that…, there was so much in my head that I need to sort out before I even contemplated our future and what it held…, “please… give me time Bette… I have so much… shit… going on in my head right now…”

Bloody right, Tina. Time to stop living the lie, and start *really* living. I’m still a bit giddy from the last chapter, and well, it’s carrying over to this one. More, Jo. As soon as, please.
Awesome Love It
Too short, but oh, it was worth it. You got that right Tina, time to go tell Henry bye,bye, and get back to where you belong. Jo, could you go write for IC.
Tina finally came to her senses. Hopefully, this will actually happen on the show. Once a TiBetter, always a TiBetter.
You see? It’s flowing. And yes a loooot of dance… :P Now I am looking forward to know where you are going with this story.
Ed is pleased :o)) I’m in Porter zone too….think it has somthing to do with my name LOL – great post!!
Excellent… had been and will always be waiting on end for the next chapterThank you
Another great update…Nice one!
There never was an escape, Tina. You can’t get away. Oh god, the Porter zone! Do they sell day passes for that place yet? Sigh, oh well… So lovely. So hopeful. Makes NY so happy. Thanks, Jo!
great update Jo. I agree with coop, you should write for IC. your writing flows so wonderfully!
It took her long enough, but Tina has finally realized she has found her everything!. Enough of hiding from her true love. Glad to see her making her way home.
absolutely beautiful :)
Hark! The Truth has been spoken! Frankly it’s still a little difficult to fathom exactly how Tina got her head so completely and utterly up her ass, but she’s pulled it out now, so good for her.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for making Tina see the light. Please send IC a copy of this story so she has a clue how to bring them back together!
Brava. The truth will set you free. Go Tina.
Yay! Any chance of skipping the chores again for a day and writing some more? *puppy dog eyes*
Looks like the light bulb went off in Tina’s head at the right time. It seems that the bulb was dimmed but now it is brightly shinning.
it’s about time they both admitted the truth, now let’s the healing begin
Awesome as always !!!!!
Ahhhh… this made me smile. You’re gifted, Jo… mindblowingly talented! LOL… thanks.
Lovely…. please post again SOON!!
oh whoah great moment….more
Finally Tina came to her senses!!! (doing a happy dance!) it was worthy all the time that Bette have been living because at the end she will have her Tina back
Jo, More hope and heartache. Good to read that Tina is believing in her heart again and following it to a point. After everything that these gals have been through some good old fashioned chatting has been long over due. Being open and honest with yourself is the first step as then you can follow through with others. Getting your head around it all does take time and effort. I think that Tina will appreicate Bette’s support and comforting however she knows that only she can sort it out. Bette has been wonderful as she sees a glimmer of hope and is heartened by it but also willing to give Tina the reins in dealing with their current situation. Your wise words just flow and rock your reader. Wonderful writing as always. Much Thanks for this chapter, Your Loyal Fan.
That’s it Tina! You go girl! Great chapter Jo.
Oh yeah, Getting even better now Jo.pps
WOW!!! That was Great!!! Tina and Bette should take things slow. Thanks PPS
Wow this is so good and can’t wait to see B&T back together again!!!!!!
