Life changes unexpectedly – Chapter 13
“I love you too.” Tina says and takes Bette’s hands in hers. “I do Bette.” She adds. “I’ve never known love before, but I know that this feeling inside, whenever you’re around or when I’m talking to you on the phone. I know that’s love. You make me incredibly happy.” Tina says as a tear find its way down her cheek. “We have a long way to go still. Because I get the feeling that you can’t really let them go just yet. And I’m not going to tell you that you have to either. They’re a part of you. But what I am going to tell you is that. I’m not her, nor will I ever be. Until you’re absolutely sure that you’ve let them go and are ready to move on completely. Dating, kissing and cuddling is the only things you’re gonna get from me. I’m sorry if I’m being harsh, but I can’t let myself get caught in your emotions and feelings of loss towards your family.” Tina says, looking into Bette’s eyes. She softly squeezes Bette’s hands. “I love you Bette, god I love saying that.” Tina says and smiles. “And I want us to work and go into the next decades still loving each other. If you want, I’ll keep my distance from you until you’re ready and have let them go. If you want to do this alone and in peace.” Tina suggests.
“What are you saying?” Bette asks.
“I’m saying that, I’ll leave you alone for a period, so you can concentrate, contemplate, whatever to help you heal, to let you get to a point where you can look back on your family and smile, and be thankful for the time you had together, not by remembering them and cry. You need that, we need that.” Tina says.
Bette listens intently at what Tina is saying. And she surprises herself and agreeing.
“Will you wait for me?” Bette asks.
“Yeah, I’ll wait for you.” Tina says.
“No matter what?” Bette asks again.
“No matter what.” Tina replies with a smile.
“I don’t know how long I will be.” Bette says, tears starting to fall down her cheek again.
“Take your time. I feel like, this…” She starts by motioning between herself and Bette… “This is worth fighting for. I’m not giving up before it starts. I want to be with you. When you’re ready, I’ll be here… I’ll also be here whenever you want to talk, kiss, cuddle…” She finishes.

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!
