    Author Notes:

    Everyone’s feeling a little weepy except for Shane, Carmen, and Angelica.

    Bette had lived in LA for years and she still hadn’t come to terms with the idea that it would take up to forty-five minutes to get someplace only fifteen minutes away in another city.  When Bette was growing up in Philadelphia, if it took an hour to get from her house to the mall or to an art gallery or the theatre, it really was an hour of driving at about 50 miles per hour.  Getting from LAX to West Hollywood, if there was no traffic should have taken only 30 minutes, but there was always traffic and it had taken 50 minutes just to get from the 405 to the 10 Freeway and it was still slow and go.  She had been driving cautiously, but her attention wasn’t on the jammed freeway.  Bette was explaining Tina’s current state to Tina’s mother and sister.  She had picked them up right on schedule and the moment the two of them got in the car, they peppered her with a hundred questions about Tina’s care.  Bette told them what had happened the night Tina gave birth and all of the subsequent problems that had occurred since then.  She had kept in contact with them since that first night, but she repeated it all in the car.  Everything that Dr. McPherson had explained, she described to them, satisfied that she had the answers to their questions and knew all aspects of Tina’s treatment. 

     

    She exited at LaBrea and was now driving north to the rehab center.  “We should be there in just a few minutes.  I-I want you to be prepared.  Tina isn’t the same…the same person.  She’s lost a lot of weight, her hair’s partially shaved, and she can’t eat on her own.  The good news is that Tina’s much better.   I-I really feel that she’s made progress the last few days.”

     

    Bette pulled into a driveway, drove down to a small parking lot, and slipped into the first available space.  She leapt out of the car and waited for the Kennards.  Bette was wearing a pair of wide-leg, stretch black jeans and a black C & C tank top and it looked a little warm for such a hot day.  The clotheshorse she’d always been seemed to be under deep cover.  Greater concerns.

    1. Portia, have I said thankyou??? Thankyou for your dedication to writing a story that is full, full of love, lust, heartache, and the daily grind. Thankyou for giving us a wonderful Tina, although a little out of it right now, but we know you will take good care of her!!! I worry about this Bette, like kit mentioned…she is very close to cracking…pls tell me there is no more candyass lurking?? Pls try to post soon, I LOVE this story!!!!

    3. i hope tina will wake up soon and TLW life will come back to normal, wonderful way of blending reality and tina’s coma dreaming…i wish s3 was all tina’s dream

    4. Thanks I hope you’ll do a better job with Alice than in the show and don’t let her in pain too much, she deserves better. I want to know what you do with danish.

    5. I love the way you are slowly erasing the damage IC did to our girls. You are truly gifted. I nominate you for a fanfic award :). Please let Tina wake up before those Kennard people try and steal Angelica. For everyone else: if you have not read Portia’s previous stories, do so, they are amazing too. Thanks Portia

    6. I just can’t help feeling that Tina’s folks are going to try and take Angel away from Bette. Please let Tina wake up before that happens.

    7. A scary thought passed my brain that Angelica’s Nani is going to try and take her away from Bette. I also worry that if and when Tina does wake up that your story will follow right along season 3 and Bette will not only be penniless but loose her true love Tina. I only hope that while Tina is in the coma that all those man thoughts will disappear when she does wake up.

    8. Your scenario for S3 explains Tina’s aberrant behavior. It’s just as I pictured it, but of course, having Tina’s coma occur in present time rather than as a flashback at the end of S3 is inspired. The drama is still there, the true nature of the characters is still intact; they have not experienced explicable personality transplants. Love your addition of Tina’s family. From spoilers I gathered that we would meet Tina’s mother in S3. I guess that went out the window with the rest of her credibility. What a shame…Thanks for your finely textured story. The series producers should take notes. They could learn a lot from you about narrative flow.
