Hold A Place For Me CH. 4
Bette’s eyes water as she tries to be forward with Alice, “Have you talked to Tina?”
Alice debates on what to say, she decides to simply answer the question, but confirm nothing more, “Uh…yeah…I have.”
Bette’s eyes widen, “Really?” Her excitement is soon curbed by anger when she realizes everyone must already know, “So I guess you know everything that happened then?”
This is torture for Alice, “We talked, but I don’t pretend to know everything that’s going on.” Bette just rolled her eyes, “Don’t ***** play games with me Alice. Either you know or you don’t. What did she tell you? *****! I’m guessing everyone knows by now. You can’t keep your mouth shut.”
Alice gets defensive, “Excuse me? Look, I don’t know what everyone else knows because on the contrary to what you think of me, I’ve not discussed it with anyone, but Tina and now you so don’t come here with your ***** judging me.”
Bette: “What the ***** is that supposed to mean? My *****? Oh right, I see, I’m the sorry cheating *****. That’s what you all think isn’t it? Well…I guess you’re all right.”
Alice doesn’t want this to be happening between her and Bette, “Bette, I’m trying not to think anything about either of you. What’s going on between the both of you is for you two to discuss….I just want to be your friend….both of you.”
Bette returns to her gentle state when she realizes Alice really is trying to help, “Al….listen, I’m sorry. I didn’t come here to argue with you. I can’t afford to lose anyone else in my life.” Alice leans in to hug her friend, “You’re not going to lose us. We’re all here for you.” She pulls back and brushes the hair out of Bette’s face, “Can I ask you something as someone who care about you and whos known you for a long time?” Bette nods and Alice continues, “Why did you do it?” The tears freely fall down Bette’s cheeks, “I don’t know….I’ve been asking myself the same thing over and over. Just trying to understand it. I….I….it’s like when I think about it, it’s like watching yourself from a distance or in a dream…and not being able to control yourself. I just couldn’t keep it from happening. I…I just….it wasn’t me….it was me, but I was acting without thinking. Like this other person took over and I lost all will to stop it. I was in a place where nothing mattered….Does that make any sense?”

This is sad and hurt but glad Tina call Bette and tell her she still love her and she heard the conversation between her and Alice. Ok let see what’s next, thanks!
Ahhh *grabs chest* soo bittersweet!! Excellent chapter, cole! I think I have an idea who your mystery character is…guess I’ll have to wait and see to find out!
First I must say that Nanc cracked me up with the comment about Betty. shit…now I will tell you that my heart actually hurt with that chapter. Please give us more…whatever you have we can take it.
Too bad the ending of S1 and begining of S2 didn’t start this way. It wasn’t alot, but enough so the each knew it wasn’t a question of love, or caring, that in fact sometimes even in the best of relationships, shit happens, how you deal with it truly says a great deal about how strong it really was. Glad that Alice talked with Bette. So glad Tina called. hopefully you get our two girls back together without all the drama and B.S. of S2. So far I’m enjoying this twist even if the situation is sad.
“Many of you will know them….but I’m not sure how many of you will be up for their addition”
Just so long as its not ‘Betty’ or their ‘music’… ;-)
That is so sad. Happy that Bette talk to Alice and that Tina was listening. That she called Bette. Shit does happen. You go with the flow,and hope for the best to come from it./All I know is Bette got chewed up spit our and walked all over in S2. Better person than I,to take so much. Thanks
i agree with coop if the season 2 was started like this a lot pain could ve been spared..i hope they talk and try to work things out baby steps im glad Tina made let Bette know she is still love her..another amazing chapter ohh and i hope the new person dosent mess up even more..lol..thanks Cole :o)
