The therapist clasped his hands and continued to smile. ”I might repeat – what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”
Bette stared at him for a moment, contemplating. ”I see.”
”We have another half an hour left in case you’d like to share what’s on your mind,” Dan encouraged gently once again.
Lowering her gaze to the floor for the first time since her arrival here, the brunette pondered on what she was about to say. She then folded her arms and looked at Dan. ”About sixteen years ago I became involved with organized crime. Then I spent a long time in prison. After I got out, I got involved again. Now, I’m out once and for all, and it cost me something.”
The smile was gone from the man’s face, but Bette could tell he listened carefully and despite the given information maintained his composure. He nodded for Bette to continue.
”I had a friend. We were crime partners. Well, at first I saw her as my friend, but eventually she became the enemy. She turned out to be not who I thought she was. She betrayed me, then threatened and blackmailed me,” Bette paused, looking at the floor thoughtfully, ”So I killed her to break free.”
Dan watched her silently.
”She’s been coming into my dreams ever since.”
”What usually happens in these dreams?” Dan asked.
With a shrug, Bette said calmly, ”I hear her voice. She keeps asking me to come with her. I also dream about her and my girlfriend together.”
Dan tilted his head in question. ”That last part – could you elaborate? Is there any backstory?”
”They slept together when I was in prison.”
”You’re saying your girlfriend was unfaithful to you with your friend?” Dan wanted to clarify.
”Well… We were separated, but I consider it to be the ultimate betrayal.”
Making some notes in his notebook, Dan looked at Bette again. ”Back to your dreams… How do these dreams make you feel? Do you feel scared? Do they make you anxious?”
”No, not scared,” Bette shook her head. She contemplated for a moment. ”Not really anxious as well. They wear me down, I feel as though I’m out of energy every day.”

Damage for Bette and Tina relationship seems beyond any repair.
Sorry, but i don’t know what else to say about this chapter
You are so cruel !
Please post the next chapter soon, although I am not sure if I will enjoy reading it, but because I so hate cliffhangers!

Enjoy the story? Really? This is a very difficult story to read. Especially in these challenging and frightening times. I have stuck with it but probably will not read any more. It is simply too depressing.
Well, I think there is hope here for Bette and Tina. If Bette can admit that Tina had a right to live her life as she saw fit when she was in prison. After all, it was Bette who told her to get on with her life and not visit or contact her again. To me, Bette’s response by having sex with her sister when she found out about Tina and Helena was far more harmful as it was deliberate retaliation for some perceived wrong and she was in a committed relationship with Tina. Where Tina may have acted unwisely, it was not meant in a malicious way. Bette’s behavior was a deliberate attempt to hurt Tina.
Thank you for writing this. I hope to see more of this story. I am so glad to see therapy helping Bette. I really want these two to work things out. I want Bette to become the best person she can be. She needs to relax and mend her relationships with all those people she has hurt.
Thanks you.
I don’t know. From one side i understand that only author can decide in which direction turn her story or when and how finish it, but from another – six years, more than 55 chapters and we come to the story where Tina feel absolutely nothing towards to Bette?
It’s just too hard read this for me as Tibette fan.
Angel 1981 you said it so much better than me. For those who have stayed with this story it is just too hard.
They touched bottom and they will rebound. Bette has to reach deep inside herself to come to grasp with how much she’s hurt people over the years and herself. I think this chapter is the one that brings us to a ultimate happy tibette ending.
I agree with you!
They have reached the bottom and now they can only take tiny steps up!
I’m so sorry you guys are disappointed with the story, but I understand. I know it’s depressing, but I had to show that Bette was suffering the ramifications of her dark side. I promise it will get better for both Bette and Tina in the next chapters.
To be clear, I’m not disappointed. I was sooo delighted to see another chapter from you after waiting for sooo long to see where you would take this story. I look forward reading more.
Hi Valerie,
I am not disapointed!
I still love this story much and will follow it till the end.
It was hard to read about Tina’s lack of feelings, but she seems to have closed down emotionally and not only her feelings to Bette but in generally.. I thought she went to a therapist too? She needs a Dan too!
So glad Bette went to a therapist and it is funny it always is Dan Foxworthy who is the therapist. She seems to be more healthy and stable. She really did hit the bottom and is slowly climbing up. It was the right thing to do to give Tina her passport and drivers licence so she could go home. Why didn’t Tina go home, she misses her family so much? I think because deep down she still loves Bette.
Glad that Bette has the support of Kit. Yes Bette was very harsh and cruel, but she deserve the support from the others as well. They knew about Bette’s criminal past and she send them away for their own safety and made sure they could start over. It little more understanding and support when Bette came there very traumatized would have been welcomed. I am disapointed in them. They should have helped Bette, instead they left her.
I understand completely why Tina left, what Bette did was totally wrong and she shouldn’t have done it.
I still believe Bette & Tina can build a healthy relationship, so please give us that ????
I hope you will be able to post soon.
Stay save and healthy ????
.this is my fav story, please don’t be too cruel and split Bette n Tina in this story…reading that Tina had lost her feeling to Bette is devastating.. i love them when they are together…they were so much in love to one and another.. and now i am sad :(

Wow Val really great chapter so much emotion Bette is finally seeing herself and healing from her past. Most of all shes feeling again. Her heart still beats for one lost woman who is struggling herself..
it would be good to know her thoughts through all of this is she finding piece. Is she finding her way towards Bette maybe if Bette said what she was feeling now.. and apologize for her actions maybe tell her what happened. I know she still loves Bette but I can see why she had to lock those feeling away . Bette pushed her to it she had to protect her heart from more hurt.
They both have a long ways to go. Thank you truly enjoy your story.. dont stay away so long.
I really like this crime drama. My native language is also not English, but it is written all well, I read easily and with pleasure. A big request not to give it up, write on. We are all looking forward to continuing.
