I Fall Behind pt.29
Previously:
”I knew Bette wouldn’t be able to hold her alchohol.
But you, Tina? I thought you were made of stronger stuff!” Alice kidded
as she slid into the driver’s seat and pulled into the street.
Not a minute later, she heard Tina’s slurred answer,
“It wasn’t the beer Alice… I’m drunk on looove…”
Alice burst into soundless laughter. She peeked at
the rearview mirror and saw two identically senseless women,
leaning their heads against each other. Just when she thought they were
both passed out, she heard Bette’s weak mumble.
”Me… too…”
Bette lay on her side on the bed, watching Tina’s
face so calm in sleep. It was early dawn and only a faint glow peeking
in between the window curtains illuminated Tina’s form. Bette swallowed
a lump in her throat and continued speaking in a soft whisper.
”How did this happen? One minute I’m going about my
life so unconcerned with things like love, being happy, being in
love… and the next minute you come along and… everything goes awry.
I can’t think, I can’t breathe without wishing for you. Isn’t that
strange? Now you’re my greatest wish…”
Bette felt tears warm the corners of her eyes. She
tried to gulped the emotions down but she couldn’t seem to stop
speaking.
”How did you get here? How did you know to get here?
Exactly when I needed… you. Did I always need you to be in my life?
Have I always been waiting for you, just for you?”
Tina started to stir in her sleep and Bette quickly
shut her eyes, hoping that Tina wouldn’t wake. She still had a lot to
say.
When Tina kept quiet and breathing evenly, Bette
opened first one eye, then the other one. She licked her lips. “Have I
always loved you? Did I always love you like this, like I’m about to
burst apart and scatter everywhere as tiny little pieces? Like I’m the
only person in the world looking at the beginning and the end? Like my
heart is wrenching out all the love in the world… I’m wrenching my
heart out for you… and I’m scared of this flood it’s made. You’ll
drown and I won’t be able to save you…”
Bette screwed her eyes shut as she tried to shake this last thought away.

So sweet. Bette finally said it. What’s with the turtles? Hmmmm… Please continue.
I don’t understand the turtles but happy that “our girls” admitted their love to each other, Bette most of all. Thanks for the post.

This is what I found at a website when I did a search on turtles in dreams: “Opportunity for advancement is available to you. You have secret enemies around.” Okay the first part may make sense but the second? Eh, I just woke up and am in no condition to try to analyze it. Can’t wait for the next chapter!
I get the turtle thing…I was the opening for Bette to say what she had been spending all this time building up to while Tina slept…All that she could think was I have no idea where you came from or how you got into my life, but i definately would not let some turtle steal you away
ok post soon
