Hindsight – Chapter 39
I stood up, this was unbelievable, I thought things were starting to click into place, I thought it was a start today…, I thought…, what did I think…, I didn’t know what I thought, because even when she left me this afternoon I was confused…, at what would happen between us…, what my future would hold, would our future hold…
I turned to face her, this was huge for her, a huge thing to be dealing with…, I couldn’t even begin to imagine what she must be going through…
I sat back in front of her, “are you okay…?”
She looked at me, she shook her head slightly, more as if clearing her thoughts rather than telling me she wasn’t okay…
“Not really…”
“Uh…, does he know…?”
She gave a sure shake of her head, “no…, he doesn’t…”
“Are you…, are you going to tell him?”
“I don’t know…”
“Do you need to get things confirmed…, you know…, at the doctors…, like we did the first time…”
She looked at me then, a horrified look on her face at the memory of that first time of being pregnant, I realised what I had said then…
“Fuck…, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean…, you know…, I…, I’m sorry T…”
She took a deep breath, looking back at me, “It’s okay…, and yeah…, I’ll have to get things checked out…”
“I…, uh… don’t know what to say Tina…”
“I’m sorry Bette…”
“Why are you apologising to me Tina…, you’re a…, a free agent…” I spoke quietly, it’s what she was, I had no hold or say over her choices any longer.
“A free agent who doesn’t want to be a free agent…?” she said in reply, this was the first direct reference to her regret in her decision during a conversation, apart from us talking about hindsight…
“How do you feel about it…?”
“I uh…, I’m shocked…, I’m ashamed…, I’m… angry with myself…”
“Why would you be those things…, children are such a precious gift Tina…, we always knew that when we talked about having kids ourselves…”
“Yeah…,” she sighed, “I agree…, children between two people that love each other are precious…, but as Alice so eloquently put it earlier, ‘a child from the devils spawn’ is a whole different matter to deal with emotionally…”

yey..great post.. pps..
Great post. Did Tina take a pregnancy test to know that she pregnant. If not, hopefully it’s just the stress that making her miss her cycle.
Wow, how kind, touching. But I opope its a false positive.
wow thats big of bette rock on jo
hmmmm…Don´t know what to say…How you´re going to solve this “nine months” question? Gezzz, Have Henry, and with him, all the things that happened to Bette and Tina throught that days, would be impossible. Well, at least to me. Anyway, I´ll be here to read what you decided :)
beautiful! beautiful! beautiful! If only all loved ones would respond the same way.
Remember Kit doing all those home pregnancy tests? Funniest scene ever. It´s amazing Bette can be so supportive in light of everything that has happened.
thank goodness! I was so worried your DQ self was going to have B hightailing it outta there! [dally has her fingers crossed there was a false postive read on the test tina took]. great post…love the fun moment between them…followed by the very sweet! pps!
Ok, Jo you know what you gotta do..FALSE POSITIVE, happens all the time…OH, and Don’t you dare give that hat to Ally….I think Miss NY has it and gave it to you to try on…
For the longest time I’ve wondered what Bette would do if Tina got pregnant and left Henry. I guess we’re about to find out!
Yes, you write humor and sex better than most… but more than that, you write earthshaking, heart wrenching, amazingly beautiful LOVE like nobody else… Thank you for that!
Well. I don’t know what to say… hm. Is it strange to say I’m actually kind of proud of Bette… for not flying off the handle and storming out? That’s love right there. If the tests the next day do show that Tina’s really pregnant, I hope Bette’s strong enough to deal with it. Great chapter, Jo. Thanks
Jo, That was the perfect response from Bette. Your crafted a little piece of joy on earth here. All of Tina’s fears and worries dissapiated as soon as Bette was there. Her resolute strength will carry them through this difficult time. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to do nothing and I think Bette mastered this here. Tina was so mixed up that she needed to hear that Bette was there and there for Tina. No matter what the problem was that they would face it together. Now the dust needfs to settle and the test done. Once confirmed choices can be made after careful discussion. These gals love each other and want to share everything. This is just step one of a long journey. jo, you rock! And do deserve a special DQ medal for outstanding serves to the corps. Thank you so much, Your Loyal Fan.
i cannot wait to see how this turns out.that is really big of bette to help tina.or is that call REALLOVE? P.P.S.
I’m with lwsho2005, hope its a false positive and if not they are in a good place to deal with this news. Love this story.
Thanks …
Great chapter go Bette what a perfect creature she is PPS
Good one – thanks for the answers :o))
Nice one!…
That wasn’t mean(for a change), did you stop PMSing? Sorry, all this talk about cycles, couldn’t help it. I’ve been a staunch advocate of a woman’s right to choose an abortion since back in the Stone Age, but at the same time I can’t say I like it. So I don’t really want Tina to have one, but I REALLY don’t want them stuck with Henry’s kid in perpetuity(and Henry by extension). So I say stress induced hormonal imbalance or some such thing causing a false reading on the home test. Please.
OK Jo, it clear what you have to do… make sure that Tina resumes her cycle tomorrow. Nah… make that right now!!! Bette was so good with her and their little “grey hair” humour was just the right touch. Thanks for the up date. Now, just ensure there’s no ‘spawn of the devil’ for Tina to deal with, and we can get on with our story and some TiBette loving.
You may not want the DQ crown but YOU DO WEAR THE EMOTIONAL AND LOVING QUEEN CROWN WELL! Through your words you take the explosive situations and bring the love through them. You can read the emtional laced words spoken by B&T to each other. You feel their pain and their love oozzing out of their pours everytime that they are together. Even in anger there is emtional display that can only been seen with the eyes but it comes through with your words.
thank you and yes like probie, i’m looking for a way out; but itsw slap poetic justice for henry; he had NO PROBLEM taking angelica from bette along with tina…so keep the baby and let him share…let him find a nice liberal het gyrl who will love him thru it….it will be ange’s half- brother or sister and tina don’t need anymore abortions, she’s had 2 already but hopewfully, its just stress…and 2morrow they don’t have to go to the clinic…she best sleep with bette tonight huh???she needs comfort in bette’s arms…
You SURE you’re reading to give back the DQ crown? You wear it pretty well… Bette’s… well…. I think we’re in accord as to how we feel about Bette in general, am I right? But, this woman is a goddess… Amazing, Pot, just amazing.
Why did they take away your big pen and the number of awards you’ve won? Haven’t you won 6 awards? 4 before and now 2 more? Great chapter per usual.
thanks for getting away from drama…
Jo great post. Let’s hope Tina’s assumption that she’s preggers was a “oopsy daisy’s”!
I really love this and I love Bette in this.She will stand by Tina in this thanks
Okay, this is a mistake…nerves, bad pregnancy test…because they definitely can’t be stuck with Henry’s child. That would be so gross…and so unrealistic…But I liked Bette to the rescue, she’s really coming through for T. I guess she’s like me, she senses that T isn’t pregnant…(was that wishful thinking? Or maybe some covert begging on my part…)
Great Chapter!!!! I just hope all goes well for Bette and Tina. False Positive’s happen all the time. We can hope. THanks PPS
Good chapter and Bette is amazing!
Ahhh, i’m happy Jo! :) Glad that Bette decided to stay and be supportive. Excellent chapter. Thanks
Dang Jo, just caught up. My fricken heart was going crazy. I’m sooooo glad you layed off the drama. This story has been really intense, but awesome. pps
Much better. Maybe its just stress. Either way, our girls need to stick together.
