I Need You Here – 8
The alcohol was her first clue, but she hoped she was just being paranoid.
"Bette?" Tina asked worriedly, as she approached.
Bette hastily wiped her eyes, refusing to let Tina see this sign of weakness. Seeing her weak seemed to only drive Tina further away. Because the last time she’d given in to her tears was the last time she and Tina had been together.
"Bette, are you…" Tina wondered which tone would be best to use, to address Bette’s tears. Surprise? Curious? Sympathetic? None of them seemed to be appropriate.
She shouldn’t have bothered.
Bette turned to her, getting to her feet as she did so. "Where the ***** have you been?"
Here we go.
"I had a meeting," Tina said carefully, recognizing Bette’s offensive stance.
"Yeah, like hours ago." Bette crossed her arms. "You lied to me!"
Say what? Tina stared at her, wondering what Bette was talking about. "I lied to you?"
"See? You won’t even deny it!"
What the *****-?
"You told me you were here for me, but you’re just here for your precious job, for your wonderful new career." Bette began. "Thank you, Tina, thank you for rubbing in how wonderfully you’re doing with your great new life."
"You’re drunk."
"No *****." Bette retorted. "So tell me, Miss Kennard, how does it feel? You’re better than me now. I’m ***** compared to you."
"Bette, you are not–"
"Oh, ***** you." Bette snapped. "Your words mean nothing to me."
"I’m going to go," Tina turned to leave, deciding that with Bette like this, words were going to be said that they were both going to regret.
"Yeah, you’re getting really good at that," Bette called after her.
Tina turned back to her. ***** tact and diplomacy. Bette wanted a fight? She was going to get one. "Okay, you know what? You were gone before I even left. You’re the one who went and fucked off to be with that carpenter."
"I fucked up, Tina, I did not ***** off. I’m right here. I’m not the one who left with my tail between my legs."

So much drama, so much pain — this argument was inevitable. They have yet to deal with their pain together. Whether it was the baby, Bette’s job, their inability to communicate, Bette dad’s refusal to accept Tina, Bette’s breakdown on television, the miscarriage, Tina’s refusal to make Bette touch her/communicate after the miscarriage and especially Candace. They need to address these things; they can’t just assume because they love each other, it would overcome anything — that’s some “tv/novel” romance bullshit. Far from reality or even L Word reality.
uh…wow. i just read your entire story and after this chapter can just say, uh…wow. didn’t see that coming in terms of what was “shared” with the other, but guess that it did have to be addressed at some point. again…wow!
Oh how I love this. Hmm where do you take us from here.
wow that was intense! I wonder what will happen to Bette…will she try something bad to herself? Without Tina…she is more than lost!. I cant wait to read next chapter…great story!.
Fuck this is sad, just for a moment you said something wrong that you will regret it forever. Bette is drunk and she didn’t mean what she said but its too late Tina was gone, and hope she will come back soon. Post soon, thank you! Great chapter!
Dude, you pulled a line from buffy season 5
Wow…what a drama you have going here…
YOU AND YOUR BIG MOUTH BETTE!
Bette really tore it to shreds with that one comment, didn’t she?
How are they going to come back from that? I don’t know…
man, low blow porter. how is bette going to come back from that? keep going, i want more.
Is there any way back from this? Call Dan Foxworthy! I need another post soon;-)
When you drink too much falling down water, people say the most stupiest things but that was so damm low below the belt, that was horrible and cruel.
Tina should have left at the start of the argument before it escalated.
Is there are future for B&T together, i have no idea.
Will still be reading your story which ever way you decide to take up.
Thank you.
Sometimes when you’re very drunken, you say bad things but what Bette said was very hurtful for Tina and Tina did the right thing leaving.
Your story is so dramatic. I love it but I hope a happy end between B&T.
excellent drama.i’ll be eagerly waiting for the next chapter.
FUCK BETTE, HOW COULD YOU. DRUNK OR NOT. I DONT SEE NO COMING BACK FROM THIS.
I have no idea how you are going to get Bette back from this point………..Poor Tina
Learn to keep your fucking mouth shut Bette, for gods sake. You fucked up big style this time girly!!
wow..tat was…*scarY* big fight again..bette bette bette,keep your mouth SHUT!!
What in the world. OK short of death Tina won’t forgive that one. OUCH..
How does Tina forgive that? How can Bette say that? You’ve inserted a wedge and I’m not sure how they’re going to remove it, if they ever do. It seems as if Bette has learnt nothing in the months since their separation. Tina on the other hand, though not dealing with her issues head on, does appear to be on a better footing to attempt a reconciliation.
OK Tiff, what’s next? Get going with that next chapter
This story is very intense! Yeah, Bette said something horrible, but I guess I’m confused as to why Tina is even there. Between how she feels, and some of the things that she has said…and the things that Bette has said, I guess I’m questioning why Tina even came back in the first place. She went from being caring Tina, making breakfast one minute, to turning into Bette Porter the next. So, as much as I am enjoying your writing, the story itself is confusing to me. She flew back from New York to be with Bette, yet she told her she was here on business? Is that right? I’m sorry…maybe I just need to go back and read it again.
OMG..i know we all wants B&T back together but that was not a nice thing to say even drunk…she is totally lost.. FIX this tiff_duke NOW!!!..great chapter as always..post soonnnn
oh nonono…
You did it this time Bette this is the worst hurt you could of done to Tina. Worse than sleeping with Candace. Bette needs help with the issues fucking with her. Get her help and let them find their way back to one another. please. Great story.
Bette did NOT just say that!
Wow. That was great but sad. I hope T can forgive and come back.
not bad
That was harsh even for Bette. Good luck with Tina
I love the story line you have going. It is well written and you have captured Bette to perfection. Keep going.
