Looking Glass – Chapter 3
Bette could feel the cascade of running water wash over her. Though she was aware of it, she was unable to move. She was sitting on the floor of the shower with her head slumped over, resting on her knees, which were pulled up to her chin. She felt utterly alone with only her thoughts to keep her company.
“Babe, have you seen my dress?” Tina asked.
Bette looked up but couldn’t see Tina through the shower doors.
“Are you . . .,” Tina started to ask as she came into the bathroom. “Baby?”
Tina walked into the bathroom to find Bette in her cocoon at the bottom of the shower. She stepped into the shower and gently turned off the shower.
“Sweetheart, let’s get you out of there.”
Tina gently put her arms around Bette and pulled her up. She wrapped her arms around her and carefully lifted her up in the shower stall.
“Baby, we have to have you there in 40 minutes,” Tina said.
Tina took the towel she had grabbed on her way into the shower and wrapped it around Bette and started drying her off.
“Baby, what’s going on?”
Tina finished drying Bette the best she could. She wrapped her arms around her tight and gently pushed Bette’s wet curls from her face. Even with Tina holding her, Bette still looked shaky, uncertain. Tina held her tight but leaned back slightly to look Bette in the eye.
You are so exhausted,” Tina said.
“I am exhausted,” Bette said, barely above a whisper.
Tina continued to push Bette’s wet hair back with her fingers. She knew Bette was at the end of her rope.
“You just need to get through today, tonight, and then you can crash. You deserve to just fall apart,” Tina said.
Bette tried to nod her agreement. Falling apart was something she had wanted to do for weeks now.
“I might,” Bette agreed.
Tina saw how frail Bette looked, so worn down and unable to fight anymore. She tried to make herself sound cheerful.
“Well, if you do,” Tina said, “I’ll take care of you.”
Tina pulled Bette into her in a tight hug.

Can’t wait to see how Bette deals with her long-lost Maxine-mom. Thanks for writing it!
I hope you are a Tibetter cause I see where this is headed.Nice update.
And don’t I know how you feel about TiBette! LOL! I love this, but you already know that because we talked about it! I love the direction, I love the sneak peek I get, and I believe in this story and your talent! Later Yang!
Can’t wait to see where this leads…love how Bette saw how Jodi truly feels.
So sad. I see trouble.. For Bette, Maxine, Shane, Paige, Tasha, Alice. I hope T is there for Bette again. Bye Jodi.
Jodi needs to be kicked to the curb already! And I would love notohing more than to see Tina catch Bette when she falls…assuming she does that is.
Thank goodness that Bette finally saw jodi for who she really is. I find fascinating that the first thought that Bette had after the shock of finding that her mother is still alive is that she needs Tina. Even in their worst times Tina was there for her. Oh please let Bette and Tina be there for each other again.
I like that you are including everybody in the story, especially Talice and Sharmen!
The Maxine story is one (among many) of TLW’s unsolved mysteries. Your treatment is first-rate. I sense you’re a Tibetter; certainly not a Jobetter, but then who is.
Was that Carmen that Shane saw? I hope they bring her back in S5, that storyline had the most ridiculous ending, meaning none! LOL. Anyway, hope Tina is the one to help Bette deal with her feelings about her mom. That would probably lead to her resolving why she and Tina split…great update and PPS!
Ok I’m curious why it took Maxine so long to return. More on Tasha. Let Jodi stay in NY she is way too insensitive.
Great Chapter!!!!!!!!! I am glad Bette said goodbye to Jodi. I just hope that Bette will be OK. I do think Tina will help Bette. But I think Bette also has to do this herself and take the time to really here what her mother has to say. B&T will need to sit down a really talk to each other. Thanks PPVS
Only Bette,Kit and Carman was missing.Or was Carman missing??? Wave goodbye to Jodi. Hello to Maxine. How will Bette handle this? Hoping that Tina by her side thanks
YAYYY! Bye bye Jodiiii and Paige! Hello to Tina and Carmen! :D I hope that woman that Shane saw was Carmen! I´m gonna pray! :DI hope Maxine and Bette work things out!Great chapter and thanks for making my day! :DPPS
get the fuck on Jobette and come on Tibette
No more Chapters? The story has so much promise!
