“Is it true that this is an adaptation of your life with the well-known art powerhouse Bette Porter?”
Tina smiled at t he description used to describe Bette, given there were so many other aspects of Bette’s life that now came before her career.
“It does represent, to a certain degree, my life with Bette Porter.”
“Bette can we get a statement from you?”
“I couldn’t be prouder of Tina than I am at this moment,” Bette offered a genuine smile in the direction of the camera. “I’ve been blessed to have her in my life and while we watch this particular interpretation of our lives come to life, I’ll be reminded of all the reasons I fell in love with her in the first place.”
Bette walked forward, while smiling, leading Tina inside as Jenny began her journey down the red carpet, relishing in the attention being paid to her. Upon entering the theater, Aaron quickly approached Tina gushing at the level of attention ‘Lez Girls’ was commanding.
“Is this not fucking awesome?” Aaron said as he handed Tina and Bette a glass of champagne as a tray of full glasses passed by. “You did an amazing job.”
“Thank you,” Tina said with a genuine smile. “I’m just happy it’s over.”
“You always had our full support.”
“Really?” Bette cocked her eyebrow. “It didn’t feel that way when you were pushing her so hard.”
“Me?” Aaron said reluctantly. “I’ve always supported Tina.”
“Right down to the early morning hour,” Bette muttered as she sipped her champagne.
“Let’s mingle,” Tina said, refusing to allow Aaron an opportunity to ruin her excitement. “I see some of the cast and want to say hello.”
The lights flicked in the reception area indicating the movie was set to begin. As planned, Bette and Tina sat in the center of the theatre, the row taken up by their family and friends. As the lights dimmed, Bette laced her fingers with Tina’s and leaned closer to whisper in Tina’s ear.
“I couldn’t be more proud of you.”
“I love you,” Tina whispered back as the credits began to roll and images flashed on the screen.
The image of two women, tossing and turning in bed, appeared scattered throughout the opening sequence. A famous actress, Laura Bishop, with hair styled similar to Tina’s appeared on the screen. Her mannerisms were perfectly portrayed to mirror Tina’s, right down to the slight Southern accent when she called out for ‘Bev’.

HEY Gumby, Perfection! Thank you so much for weaving this wonderful drama. Taking the thread from Season 4 and creating a truly amazing tapesty. Each character was flesh and blood throughout. Bette and Tina have made them way back into each other’s lives will honesty and love. These gals are now sharing their hearts, souls and minds with each other. Awesome.

I’m so incredibly glad I came across this story. It was absolutely brilliant. The intermingling of their reconciliation with the rewrite of Lez Girls and working through the down falls of their relationship was amazing. I’m in awww of your ability to capture their love, their character, their hopes and dreams, insecurities and strengths so perfectly. Absolutely amazing! What a gift to this fandom!
