I Will Not Let You Fall
”The job aside, how’re you holding up on the whole?” Tina asked. ”I imagine the world might feel different for you.”
Bette snorted with wry laughter. ”You can’t imagine that.”
”I recall how it was. It’s not very difficult to compare the past and the present. But, of course, I can’t imagine how you might feel about it,” Tina claimed. ”Maybe if you would tell me.”
Bette placed the tips of her fingers in the warm sand and began drawing a circle, ruminating over her answer. ”It’s just different. It’s more pleasant to be in the present, than it was in the past. Besides, my lifestyle is opposite from what it was then, so it must the reason I like it better in the present, than in the past.”
”I can see that you’re enjoying your current life. You look happy, peaceful.”
Bette locked her eyes with Tina. She stared for a moment. ”You think?”
Tina smiled faintly and nodded. ”Yeah.”
Bette shrugged, turning her gaze toward the ocean. ”Well, I am.” She then let out a soft sigh through her nose and laid back slowly, stretching out her long legs, her elbows propping her up above the waistline. She observed Tina closely from behind.
Confident that Bette wouldn’t see her face, Tina closed her eyes for a second and swallowed the lump in her throat, lowering her head a little.
”Though, I still have this feeling that I’ve missed a lot,” Bette added abruptly.
Tina glanced back at the her. She moved around so that she was sitting in a lotus position, facing Bette. ”Understandable. Your prison term was too long.”
”It has done me some good.”
Tina looked slightly surprised. ”Prison?”
”Yeah. I needed to do the time. I’m thankful for that now. It has taught me a lesson.”
Tina smiled, almost proudly. ”I’m glad to hear that,” she whispered.
Suddenly, her phone ringed loudly in her purse, making her jump on the spot. She quickly rummaged the phone out of the purse and looked at the screen. The flicker of uneasiness crossed her face as she saw the caller ID. Contemplating for a moment, Tina silenced the phone and put it back into the purse. She raised her gaze at Bette, who kept watching her with curiosity and what seemed like ill-concealed reproach.

Valerie, Thank you for the update! This is one of my favorites. So happy to see that Tina is going to fight for Bette! Can’t wait for next update.
Thank you so much for the great update,I’ve been waiting patiently for you to post. I cant wait for the next part,please post soon.
Hi, happy to see another great (and long) chapter from you!
I must say about a few things about this part.
First – what i don’t like – i don’t like Nicole. I don’t trust her and i think she don’t fired Bette only because she wants her. I can see ultimatum for Bette from her in the future.
Ok, next what i like – i like two conversation – Tina wit therapist and Bette with Ayola – i think both Tina and Bette can see things more clear after this talks.
And of course the best part of chapter – Tina’s decision fight for Bette.
I must say i very like your mature Tina and i think Bette need to stop be scared and do leap of faith with her.
So, thank you for this part and waiting for next!
Hi Valerie:
This was a wonderful chapter, as you mentioned, maturity is taken its way on our couple, and they have the world on their hands, it’s their decision, all or nothing.
I’m glad they are finding their way to each other, there will be obstacles, like that stupid bully parol officer, the talkative Brenda and Bette boss, but Tina and Bette together, can overcome any barrier.
I start getting sad because this is the beginning of the end of this story, hope you keep updating the other, and maybe we could enjoy more stories from you.
Thank you for the update, I’ll eagerly wait for the next chapter.

oh my God…u’ve just made my day by update this story.. Thank you so much..
Hi Valerie,
Yes, Tina is going to fight for her Bette! About time, she has to show Bette that she has grown up and will not leave her when there are problems and there will be
That parole man is a utter asshole and what about Nicole, hmm. I hope she is trustworthy and isn’t going to use Bette’s past against her. For now i give her a chance.
Ayola has my respect, she is a very good friend. I love her.
Thank you for the update! It was worth the while!

Thanks for posting.

Geez so much emotions going on… stubborn and lack of communication…. good think they both had someone to turn too… but then there is still Brenda… thank you it was great..
thank you so much for this wonderful long chapter.
I don’t blame Tina for behaving the way she did, I mean Bette was living a dangerous life style that would have easily put Tina at risk. am glad both are finding their way back to each other. But what happens with Brenda?. post soon plea……..se
Forgot to mention about Tina’s girfriend – seems it was not ease to Tina break up with her. First – because her parents like her, and second – Brenda obviously in love with her.
But i hope mature Tina know what she wants – and it’ll be Bette
Loved he update. Thanks
It was wonderful having the update. Hopefully they can come to terms with their feelings for each other and most of all, Bette needs to get over her fear of being let down by Tina in the future. Tina has laid down the gauntlet and Bette needs to meet her halfway and accept that Tina is truly still in love with her and wants a future with her. And Bette needs to forget the past and let it go, and run as fast as she can towards their future. Loved the update. Thanks for posting.
So happy to see an update. My heart broke for Tina when Bette pushed her away. The parole officer is a sadist. I hope Bette can keep her path until she no longer has to answer to him. He has treachery in his heart. Nicole will make a play for Bette to keep her secret. I think Bette needs to remove herself from this job. Tina has grown so much . She is willing to fight for Bette and chose her over family. The little girl is grown up. Please post again soon. Thank you.
It’s been 25 days..and i am dying to have an update of this story…give us some highlight of the day. Soon…pretty please?? :)
