    Author Notes:

    Bette and Tina confront their difficult memories…together

    Bette looked away as tears fell down her cheeks.

    “I made you touch me when I felt I had gained the upper hand in our fight,” Tina swallowed hard as she felt her stomach lurching at the memory.   “I wanted to feel something too.  I had felt the distance between us too during that time.   I’m sorry I made you be intimate with me under those circumstances.”

    “It’s not just your fault,” Bette said defending Tina against her own accusations.  “We both were wrong.”

    After sitting in silence for a few minutes, still holding hands, Tina broke into Bette’s painful memories of that night by speaking.

    “Where does this leave us?”

    Bette’s eyes drifted to the computer screen, which now had gone into screensaver mode and flashed pictures of Angelica in random order at them.

    “I hate that you have to write about our lives,” Bette said honestly.  “I keep thinking that one day Angelica will see this movie because her talented and beautiful mother wrote it and produced it, and she’ll see us at our worst during some of these scenes.”

    “She’ll see us at some of our best times too.”

    “But that night is not one of them,” Bette shot back.  “And I resent Kate and every other blood sucker that wants to make a dollar off of our pain and demise as a couple.”

    “I have to show Angie the good parts of us too Bette, that’s why I took this project on in the first place.”

    “So where does this leave us?” Bette repeated Tina’s question back to her.

    “I guess I get back to work,” Tina said reluctantly.  “I need to come up with a plausible lie to cover all that we did that night to each other.  I don’t want that coming out either Bette.”

    “You can’t do this alone.”

    “What do you mean?”

    “I mean that I haven’t seen you for more than 5 minutes in a matter of weeks.  You can’t address what happened here, in this office, where it’s cold and unfeeling as hell given this is the place where most of the people that are earning a living at our expense are. “

    Tina looked at Bette puzzled by her answer.

    “Come home with me,” Bette whispered to Tina softly as she stroked her cheek.  “I’ll help you construct something that will appease everyone, but I won’t make the mistake of not talking again.”

    Tina wiped fresh tears from her cheeks as she listened to the sincerity in Bette’s voice.

    “We should have talked more then.  I’ve learned that.  I want to help you through this and not let you stand on your own like I did when you lost the baby.”

    Tina looked at Bette lovingly, seeing another drastic change in her ex-wife, and beginning to fall in love with her all over again.  She watched as Bette stood and offered her hand to assist Tina. 

    “What about Kate?  I have to have this done by tomorrow morning and I am just exhausted.”

    “Then let me help,” Bette offered a small smile as she held onto Tina’s hand.  “And don’t worry about Kate.  Having that scene on her desk tomorrow is the least of her concerns if I see her anytime soon.”

    1. They are talking, together they can come up with something that will blow the minds of all the blood suckers. Kate and Jenny. We for get that Bette and Tina are the only ones that really knows their life. Together they can win this battle. thanks

    2. I am glad that Tina shared what scene she was being asked to write. I love Bette reaching out and showing Tina her feelings. Together these two can conquer anything. Oh and Kate, well let’s just say I am hoping she gets put in her place SOON. :)

    9. Chapter after chapter your incredible talent shines through. I hope that you feel pride when you read this story, because you are doing an exceptional job. Thank you…thank you!

    14. ouch, baby that was so very much pain, I can’t even believe that, that was not more painful then the night it happened, that night they were on auto pilot and not thinking thing over but now they had to mesh memories and relive all that pain, So can you please let them write the 2 weeks and then let Bette go talk to Kate, (in that alpha Bette kinda way) I love that. Thanks for the up date Gumby, you rock. Md

    15. Gumby, you are unbelievable! I love the way you have constructed this whole story to explain all of the things that contributed to their demise. It’s brilliant…their relationship is reconstructed as they talk about what broke it down.

    17. Thank you for allowing them to talk out that very difficult time in their life. With Bette’s help Tina will be able to bring to life some form of that night but it will also help in putting that night in behind them. This is a new beginning for them and something in the future to build onto.

    20. So much emotional drama. Great writing as always. I am still not sure if not both Bette of old and current Bette would have a stronger reaction to Tina even entertaining the idea of relaying any info from that night. I mean come on should’nt Kate be happy to get some space for some of her own ideas? Cant wait to read more.

    22. Gumby the machine must have eaten th last two pages because you just couldn’t have stopped there, surely not. Hopefully you will post another chapter tomorrow so that we will not faint from anticipation.Great story and you are doing a magnificent job with it. your writing is brillant and you convey all the pain, agony, triumph,joy and love they feel for each other. Even through the pain they carry from the past they can now look beyond the pain and defend each other and still have that undying love and devotion for each other. That is very powerful and you have conveyed it beautifully with Bette feeling Tina’s pain that she inflicted and offering to help her thru it so Tina doesn’t ever go through all that alone again. That’s LOVE. To be able to do all that and find that you love that person on a much deeper level than you ever thought you could, that’s the ultimate statement of love. Thank you so much for sharing this story with us and I am always very eager for the next chapter. You should be writing the season.

    23. well at least they talked…(what happened that night I can never see as rape, or forced by either of them. It was pain and anguish coming out, as LH so eloquently put in in one of her interviews). So now am waiting on the next post Gumby, as am I on “lazy afternoons”

    24. Yes for them talking. i’m happy that tina spoke about her feelings and even more so that bette followed tina’s lead. kate better watch out cuz bette will in turbo alpha mode over tina.

    26. Come on! How can you be hoping that we like this chap when it was …. totally and purely SPECTACULAR! Ohh.. I wish you where hired to write season 6!! Take care my friend and now WE hope you post soon!

    27. I love this chapter, wow they are really talking I thought this day wouldn’t come soon, You are an incredible writer dear and this story is one of your amazing work, please post soon I just can’t wait to see what will happen next and what are they going to talk about?? With all my best, have a great day friend. Thanks

    31. Painful night for both of them. As much as B & T hate that Jenny created “Lez Girls” it might be what brings them back together. The two of them having to hash out the why’s will make them stronger. PS.

    33. Hello Gumby, I am just catching up with all the marvelous writing having spent two weeks ill with Chicken Pox. Not good when you are an adult but nearly all recovered now. So on to your wonderful writing and delightful drama. This chapter should just how difficult but necessary it is for Tina and Bette to deal with the events of their break-up before they can truly move forward. The heartbreak and hurt are evident here. You capture all of the angst and distress that revisiting and reliving this time has brought these gals. I love the fact that they are sharing their thoughts with one another. Finally… This is a definite move forward and shows that both these gals want more for the future. They both need closure on this heinous night. I do agree that sharing all of these revelations with the rest of the world would ultimately be detrimental to their love together. I do want them to work towards a mutually agreeable version of the destruction of their partnership. Bette appearing at Tina’s office was a wonderful scene. More please of this must read adventure. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan,
