Is Forever Over? Chapter 11
Tina: Bette, I didn’t mean to be obtuse or in any way show myself as dishonest. I was scared and I ran. I should not have shut you out. Please believe me, I really want us to work and for you to be happy with me. I called you tonight because I promised to fight. I know I ran like a coward, but god I was so, scared. After last night at my place with sharing a few sweet kisses, family time and you giving me the necklace I felt so good about us and a future together. Then this morning I see you sitting at the Planet looking so beautiful and the first thing I hear is “we went house hunting”, I freaked. It may not be the most mature thing to do, but it’s what I did. I promised to be honest with you and I didn’t want to go to bed with this unsaid between us. Please believe me, baby I am so sorry, but I was literally stunned and I panicked and felt sorry for myself. Fighters get stunned, but they get up time after time. I’m back off the mat and ready for however many rounds it will take to win your heart and trust again. Please don’t give up on me, I’m begging you baby.
Bette: Tina, thank you for the call and the explanation. I’m sorry you were so freaked out, but I need you to talk to me, not assume and react rashly. It’s not the end of the world if we fight as long as we respect each other in the process. I am not planning to move to Chicago, leave Boo or leave my post as Dean. I have a good life here and I’m happy.
Tina: Bette, there is no doubt in my mind that my enduring happiness will come in a life with you. I am begging you for a chance to show you that I love you, I want you and care about your happiness and your dreams. I am not that cruel person that you had to live with not so long ago. I take full responsibility for my actions and repeat it is the biggest regret of my life. I never should have been that cruel toward you. I know that asking not only for your forgiveness, but your trust and another chance is a tall order, but I know in the end it will be worth it as we can be happy together again. I’d like to spend time with you, just us getting to know each other again or more importantly allowing you to get to know me again and trust me again. I want some of the time to be just us, no Angelica and no family. Just time for us; time for me to show you I’ve changed for the better.
Bette: I will think about what you’ve said and your offer and let you know. I have had to forgive you for Angelica’s sake. I have not forgotten and my trust in is no where near it would have to be to consider a relationship again. Honestly, I don’t think about having that kind of relationship again with anyone. It was a first with you and it ended badly. I feel blessed to have my daughter to show for it, but the rest is too painful to consider. What I have with Jodi is comfortable, it fits and feels good. The intensity that I shared with you turned from the most beautiful pleasure I could ever imagine to a stunning hell that I couldn’t get out of. I feel blessed to have experienced those highs, but cursed to have found those lows. I am not sure I need that intensity in my life.
Tina: I understand what you’ve said and am grateful that you can consider my suggestion. I will just repeat, I want you to be happy. I want you to be happy with me. I am not that cruel idiot anymore. I just want a chance to show you that I am a better person, a good person who is still deeply in love with you. I love you Bette, with all my heart, I do still love you. Good night baby.
With that Tina with teary eyes hangs up the phone.
Bette: Well, well she said good night baby. Smiling Bette rolls over to fall asleep.

They are finally being honest w/each other. Bette likes her life right now. What’s not to like? Hot sex in different cities.
thank you for making Tina work for Bette’s affection again. It’s good that Tina is being open and honest.
This is great, although I hope that Bette doesn’t feel so comfy in her new role of the woman both Jodi and Tina want that she sits back while Tina grovels before her. Thanks!
I understand that this is what Tina wants, but I am not sure it’s what Bette wants, at least enough to risk trusting Tina again. Whether Jodi is the right one or not isn’t the point, Bette is happy with her, at this time, and feels safe with her. Is she supposed to just say, see ya Jodi, Tina thinks she wants me back again…I know that Bette wouldn’t survive if Tina changed her mind again and decided Bette wasn’t good enough, was working too hard and not spending enough time with Tina, or not working hard enough, or whatever….How many times should Bette have to go through this? I think tina should cool her jets and just try to be a good friend and co-parent right now. As for not wanting Tina to have to grovel…why shouldn’t she grovel!
Tina does need to do some groveling, but let’s not overdo it! Geez…
Be honest and opened with each other in a relationship are very important.For once it is Tina’s turn to work for Bette’s affection again. Bette still loves Tina she just scares to get hurt again. Fabulous story. PPS
Hello lwsho2005, this chapter was awesome, it really does show Bette in true form, she has finally reclaimed her status as an Alpha but in this case she isn’t so sheltered and short sighted. She has been disillusioned in recent years as to her true identity and having finally found herself a level of balance. The one thing that she should really think hard about is what her life with Jodi is leading up to, for Jodi, Bette is her Tina. The first woman that she set aside her free style status into trying her hand at monogamy, Bette might be the first person Jodi has fallen “IN” love with and Bette should be mindful of where her own heart is before she puts Jodi in the same position of hurt. Keep Up the amazing job. Sincerely, JC
Bette is really standing her ground but I do not blame her. Tina was cruel before. However, I like to see Tina fight with all her heart.
Happy they are being honest with each other and Tina does need to work to get Bette back but, don’t make her grovel too much.Bette needs to remember where her heart really is, with Tina and Boo, not with Jodi. Jodi does not like children and does not rally want a life with Angelica, nor does she want to be a one woman girl.either. Bette knows this yet she still wants a relationship with her. I believe Bette really wants Tina but is very afraid. Tina needs to be a little alpha and go after Bette. PPS
Tina is finally showing Bette her true feelings. She needs to not try to get any more physical with Bette than kissing while she and Bette are getting reaquainted and just be as honest as she can with Bette. Bette could through Tina a small bone does she not remember how she felt when she gave her whole heart and soul while trying to win Tina back and Tina totally disreguarded everything she tried? Jodi is an alright person but Bette is still setteling for less by accepting she will not be part of the traditional family she wants. And Jodi still doesn’t want to spend real quality time with Angelica and I think she feels her other mom should take care of her when she and Bette want time together.
Incredible story… love the honesty it’s about time bette speaks up! finally tina is opening her mouth! tina will find her way back to bette’s heart but she should EARN it.
Omg like Bette never put a foot wrong!!!!!
That was awesome and love about they talking to each other!
Ok I know Tina needed to work on getting Bette back but give the poor girl a break it breaks my heart to see her like this, and Im scar3d that Bette just dont care anymore
