Life changes unexpectedly – Chapter 13
“For me you’ve been a blessing, you given me something I didn’t think I could have again. Not because I didn’t want to, but because I didn’t know how to let go of the past. I know I’m taking a risk here, with you, maybe I’m moving too fast or, I don’t know. I hope not of course. But I’ve fallen for you Tina. I’ve fallen for you big time. And to be honest it scares the hell out of me.” Bette says, she looks briefly down on their joined hands, before she meets Tina’s eyes again. “I wanted to bring you here to sort of show you off to them. Tell them that I’m okay again, that I need to move on.” Bette says. Tina reaches up and wipes away a few tears from Bette’s chin.
“You’re not scaring me off Bette.” Tina says and smiles. “This, what we have here, it scares me too, not only because you’ve had this whole family before, which were taken away from you, but also because I’ve never felt this way that I’m feeling now, before. It’s a good feeling, but at the same time it’s terrifying.” Tina says, she looks over at the stone. “But the thing I’m the most scared about is Caitlin and Isaac.” Tina says.
“How so?” Bette asks.
“I don’t want to compete against a ghost.” Tina says.
“And I can assure you that you’re not. You are completely different from her.” Bette says. She stands up and pulls Tina with her. She takes both her hands. “And don’t think for a second that I compare you to her.” Bette says looking into Tina’s eyes. “I know this, me taking you here might seem a little off in some way, but. I wanted to let go of the old and take in the new. For me, you are the new, hopefully for a very long time.” Bette says.
“It is weird being here.” Tina says, she quickly looks around the cemetery.
“I know, I’m sorry for that.” Bette says softly.
“Can I… I’ll wait by the car. Finish up here.” Tina suddenly says and walks off towards the car. Bette is left standing there, feeling a little dumfounded.
“What happened there?” She asked herself silently. She turns towards the stone, she gets down on her knees.

ohhh im first one to comment!!!!yeaahh!!!oh boy this chapter matey had me crying..u know how sensitive i am and this just hit the spot for me!!! i luved it b/c it was very heart warming and sincere… it leaves me sad so much b/c of the fact that if anyone has to live thru a tragedy like this it would be horrible..i really dont know how one can move on from something as tragic as that happening to them, im sure it would be difinetly hard b/c that person will never leave your heart or your mind..they say that time heals everything, but does it really heal something like this…would a person be totally free to luv again and give their heart to another without thinking about the past and the “what ifs”…i mean i know u cant bring back that person or go bak into the past, but will one truly be able to give their heart completly over to another person…so many memories and having a child that also died in the equation is just so devasting b/c that child didnt get to grow up and have a fulfilled life..so so sad…how can one let go of those memories and take down all those pictures without feeling guilty or devastated…how would one be able to share a home with another when they lost the luv of their life and their child….oh gosh i could go on and on here….this story is so hard for me to read b/c of such sadness and heartbreak….i can honestly say that i have no idea what i would do in a situation such as this one….this story just unravels me completly…but its in your writing which is heart felt and warm why i keep reading.. i know u will do well with this story, but it still doesnt make it any less sad or painful….welp i’ll be waiting for an update to see where u take us on this journey of tibette!!!! love yas…sincerly,your friend,Christina xoxoxoxox—-mwaaahhhhhh
Interesting. Very mature of Tina to let her go.. to try and figure stuff out. She is a better woman than I am.. because I’m pretty sure I couldn’t date someone in Bette’s situation. I’d be afraid that I’d be the choice because the other option was taken away unfairly. I wonder if someone else will pursue Tina while Bette is out of the picture.. maybe just enough for Bette to go after her when she gets back. Because this story has shown Tina going after Bette.. but not really the other way around.
A little wierd? Yes, but very good I am glad Tina is willing to give Bette all the space she needs to get over letting go of her family even though she is feeling a little insecure about Bette maybe finding someone else while she is away. PPS
I see where Audi is coming from. Being second choice would suck. I too would like to see Bette come back after a (hopefully) brief trip ready to sweep Tina off her feet.
I feel good but sad at the same time. It had to have taken alot for Bette to take Tina to the cemetary. But its also a wonderful way of letting the other person know how important you really are to them. Kuddos to Tina for having the strength to realize Bette needs more time, and wanting her to come to her whole. I don’t think she has to worry about losing Bette. Wonder if Megan and Michael are going to be able to keep the secret. What a great duo those two are.
Last to comment. I am trying my darnest to be the last to comment on all the stories I read. I love how you have written Bette and Tina in this chapter. Both knowing what is best for the other even though she maybe unsure of being away from her love.
Hey Lauren, Sweet to see that Tina is able to let Bette come to terms with her past. That will always be a part of Bette but now I hope that they are able to move forward together. WOnderful writing. Pleae continue soon. Your Loyal Fan.
Good to see Tina let Bette take her time to work thing out and hope Bette be ok!
