“Good morning,” Bette said softly as she stood before Tina holding a tray of food.
“Wow!” exclaimed Tina, “You haven’t brought me breakfast in bed in years.”
Bette looked down at the tray she held and whispered, “It’s been too long since I’ve done a lot of things for you, I’m sorry.”
She handed Tina the breakfast tray, and once again produced a rose for her from beneath the tray.
After she finished breakfast Tina asked for her to help her up so that she could go and sit in the living room. They sat talking like old friends for the rest of the morning thoroughly enjoying each other’s company. Early into the afternoon there was a knock at the front door which caused Bette to almost jump straight up in the air. She opened the door and stepped outside to greet the delivery man. Excitedly she signed for the package and carefully opened it. As she stood on the front porch she felt tears begin to sting her eyes. This is amazing she thought as she stood admiring Tina’s anniversary gift. She was trying to decide whether or not to give it to her early or wait for the anniversary which was still technically two days away when she heard Tina call her name. Bette opened the door keeping the gift carefully hidden behind the door and looked at Tina.
“Who was that at the door?” Tina asked.
“Maybe it was Santa,” answered Bette smiling broadly at Tina. “You never know who it could be this close to Christmas!”
Tina could see that Bette had something in her hand but could not tell what the object was. “Come back in Bette,” she said as she grinned at her.
“Just a second Tina,” Bette answered as she considered what to do with the gift. Deciding that she might as well give it to her while there was no one else around she asked Tina to close her eyes. “Remember now, you can’t open your eyes until I say it’s o.k.” Bette said softly. She walked to the couch where Tina was sitting and said, “Tina I know that things are beyond fucked up between us right now and that I have no right to even remind you that we even have an anniversary but I want you to know that this day will always be very special to me. When you look at this I hope that it will remind you of only good things and that you will know how much both you and Liza truly mean to me,” Bette whispered as her voice began to break. “You can’t possibly believe how privileged I feel to even be near you right now and to have been able to share Liza’s birth with you.
Bette sat down close beside her and said, “Now you can open your eyes.”
Tina looked at Bette and was left totally speechless. In her hands Bette held an oil painting of Tina holding Liza in her arms. The look on Tina’s face was a look of absolute adoration as she stared gently into the face of her daughter. The picture conveyed simply through her eyes all of the wonder and love that a mother could ever possibly have for her child.
“Oh Bette it is absolutely beautiful, “Tina said through tear filled eyes. “How when what have you done Bette?”
Bette smiled at Tina and said, “The picture came from one Shane took with her cell phone and the artist who painted it owed me a huge favor so I called in my debt. Do you really like it Tina?”
Tina held the picture in front of her and nodded her head. “I really, really like it,” she said as she leaned over and kissed Bette. Unable to control her emotions, Tina gently coaxed Bette’s mouth open and began to suck gently on her tongue. Bette sat paralyzed with fear afraid to respond, yet even more afraid not to for she had dreamed of this moment for the last seven months. She lightly caressed Tina’s tongue with her own, returning the kiss as gently as she could as she quickly became fearful of unleashing all of her true passion upon Tina. Both women surrendered to the feelings of loss, love and longing that suddenly exploded from within them.

Beautiful present! Now don’t leave us hanging for too long.
2005fanforever,my friend, you can drag this story out for as long as you want… just keep writing. I’m loving every word and sentence. And you capture the essence of their uncertainties so gosh darn well. I’m just happy whenever I see a new posting from you. Thanks.

Thank you for such a tender and loving chapter. Please post a longer chapter as soon as possible.
Come on! This story is killing me. Please don’t drag this out anymore! Damn, I feel an interuption coming.

Wow, U have to leave me hanging do ya…Well the nerve of U..Love the tender moment here….
I can’t believe you stopped there. LOL. It was a sweet and tender moment, that will probably be interrupted by little Liza’s cry to be fed. ;-) But that’s ok, because I want them to talk and not rush into anything that may hinder their reconciliation. Thanks for the sweet update. Please by all means continue.
your gonna f***ing kill me i swear i need more
Great chappy…well they can’t be having sex with Tina still sore.
Tina girl, be careful! You gonna bust yo’ stitches!
Great chapter. Loved the present. Looking forward to more.
wow this is intense, every freaking emotion is palpable. It’s almost scary that two ppl can love each this much and still have all that hurt and remorse inside them.
This is sweet. Techgal…ROFLOL, I was thinking the same thing!
i hope there’s no interruption either, they need more time alone to reconnect…wonderful update, simply wonderful
Amazing! I can so picture Bette holding back on the kiss not wanting to pressur Tina. Excellent job with this story. Post soon.
haha, I guess the next thing is that Alice enters and is happy to see they’re doing beyond good. =P
Great chapter especially with all the pain, hurt, anger, and pent up emotions they each have been harboring toward each other and themselves, this time they are spending with each other and the baby are really special and tender and just loaded with emotion. Bette is really being sweet with Tina even though they are both really scared about what the other is feeling. They are doing very well with the situation. Love how Bette is tenderly taking care of Tina and the baby. Thanks for the post.
I think you can drag this out ast long as you want. I love it!!!! so much I’m reading at work on my lunch hours.
Seems like its all been said before-I mean in the comments.
OMG, you are just killin us. Obviously they can’t really do anything right now, hello Tina just had a baby, not to mention by cesarian, but theirs always other ways. Bette is too sweet. YOu know their going to get interupted by either Liza, or Alice. Another update please.
