Lover’s Lapse – Chapter 27
“Lots, a shit load, too much, all the tequila you had in the cabinet,”
Laughing Bette knelt down beside
After getting
“What sounds good for breakfast?” Bette asked peering into the refrigerator.
“A cheeseburger,” Tina said laughing softly.
“Really?” asked Bette as she began making coffee for them.
“I think that I am beginning to get my appetite back finally,” Tina said as she smiled at the look on Bette’s face at the mention of the cheeseburger.
“Let me find the keys to
“I have a feeling that when Alice and Shane finally wake up they will need some heavy duty aspirin so can you pick up some for them?” Tina said smiling at Shane who was now curled up tightly on the floor.
Bette stopped at the grocery store to pick up the aspirin for the girls and realized that she had forgotten to buy Tina an anniversary card. As she stood reading the cards she thought about how things were between them their first several years together. There were actually many days when Bette would have a card ready for Tina first thing in the morning, another card for later in the day and then a card for that night. She would often drop in on Tina at work and surprise her with lunch, cards, flowers or whatever else happened to remind her of the passion she felt every time she thought about the two of them together. Even though they lived together Tina preferred to mail Bette her cards. Somehow the cards always showed up just when Bette needed them the most. She had joked that Tina had been paying off the postman to spy on her and hand her a card anytime she looked unhappy.
As she stood there she realized that she had neglected to do all the little things that she knew Tina loved. She had long since stopped giving her cards “just because” and sometimes even forgot to get them for her for special occasions. The flowers that were so readily delivered simply because she had thought of Tina had stopped too. “I need for her to feel my love,” she thought as she stood reading yet another card. She decided that just telling someone you love them was not always enough and although she would never stop telling Tina she also would never stop showing her again. She bought a handful of cards for Tina. She then set the rest of her plan in motion by making a stop in the wine section of the store selecting several non-alcoholic wines that she thought Tina would enjoy, and then she made her way to the floral department. Finishing up at the grocery store she had one more stop to make before heading off in search of the perfect cheeseburger for her perfect partner.

Little things means so much.Like waking up and a picture of you and the LOYL on your first anniversity in on your pillow with a flower. A card you didn’t expect.Still opening the car door for you. Liitle thans. Love the drunks,Bette needs to not talk about Candace to Tina for a while. So she feels guilty, wait,talking doesn’t help your guilt,if the other person is still hurting. thanks
hi, love the chapter! B&T really need to talk, but B also needs to show her love for T! Alice and Shane are funny! Oh can you maybe tell me which of the guys is Laurel’s husband? And her daughter? Tried to find them but, not sure if it was the right guy! thanx
What a great chapter Alice & Shane were soooo funnny, Bring on the next chapter soon
go Bette….she is figuring it all out. ’05…thank you for this story. We are going to need many, many more to get us through the next 12 weeks or so. post soon
Good chapter. Yes now Bette is time to show the love and passion again. Alice and Shane so funny, love them. Ok post soon please, thanks!
aww you see? it’s the little things that always stop first and those are the ones that matter the most. i’m glad that people realize this. this chap was awesome. i love a drunk alice and shane. please post soon. PEACE.
that was great but Bette really need to learn to shut up and dont talk about Cadass specially in their aniversary..lol..great post soon thanks
When will Tina open up and face all the problems? When things come, she just cries to sleep; when Bette makes things work, she refuses to talk things out. It’s not a good habbit.
Great chapter 2005 lookforward to your next post!!!
and i’ll also add bette needs to stop talking about candyass when she is in bed with tina… with tina in her arms… love the girls.. i could just see them crawling on the floor… and shane curled up … please continue
It’s the little things in that hold the greatest meaning. They represent care, thoughtfulness, and love. Once they begin to disappear then other areas begin to be neglected. Thanks so much for the update, please post again soon.

Great chapter. Looking forward to the next one.
Amanda’s right, Bette should find another topic when it comes to pillow talk, but Tina needs to face the hard stuff some day soon. Now, I’m not adverse to a little chemically induced fun, but when you have to crawl to the bathroom the morning after, it may be time to consider cutting back!
i love your bette. was it just me, or did B and T not seem like ‘our’ B and T in episode 1? anywho, I am counting you and a few other authers I love on this site to keep me appeased, since IC seems hell bent on breaking our hearts…..please post soon.
Have to agree with the others on most of this. The way the relationship starts off, the cards, notes, the little stuff, if your not careful it gradually fades away, as will the relationship. And Bette, in bed with Tina is definitly not the place to bring up Candace. Did I miss something in the premiere of S3 who’s Laurel?
very nice, i love the way bette wants to start doing all these little things but def. had to stop talking about candyass, find another time to do it, when tina is ready to hear
