Lover’s Lapse – Chapter 30
“Don’t worry about us, we’ll find something to get into,” Shane said as she smiled brightly at Bette.
“Tina go on in the house. I’ve got to get a couple of things out of the car but I’ll be in right behind you,”
As Tina opened the front door she suddenly felt warm all over and a huge smile spread over her face. There was a roaring fire built and a blanket spread out on the floor in front of the fireplace. There were two bottles of wine chilling in an ice bucket and a plate of fruits and cheeses sitting in the middle of the blanket. There were bouquets of sweetheart roses spread throughout the entire room. There were red, yellow, pink and white roses everywhere she looked.
As she raised her hand to her mouth she felt her tears begin to spill from her eyes. “Oh Bette what have you done baby?” she sighed.
Bette had been standing just out of Tina’s sight and had witnessed her initial response to the room. “What do you think T?”
“I think it’s amazing. You’re amazing. You have already done so much though with the trees and all you didn’t need to do this.” Tina whispered as her tears began to fall harder.
“It’s our anniversary Tina and I wanted you to enjoy it,” replied Bette as she gently pulled her into her arms.
“I see you have wine? Baby I can’t drink wine while I’m nursing.” Tina remarked.
Bette pulled a cushion from the couch and taking Tina’s hand guided her to sit down on for the impromptu picnic. She reached for a bottle of wine and began to pour each of them a glass. Tina raised an eyebrow at Bette. Grinning at her Bette turned the bottle so that she could see the label.
“Non-alcoholic seems like you have everything under control huh?” Tina laughed.
“I don’t have any control over how much I love you Tina. Each time I look at you I fall a little more,” Bette whispered as she stared at the wine bottle.
Reaching out for Bette’s hand Tina kissed the back of it lovingly.
“I’ll be right back,” Bette said as she stood and headed into the kitchen.
Tina couldn’t help but smile again at the display before her. “Amazing,” she sighed.
Returning to the living room Bette carried two plates of food. Kneeling on the blanket she sat them both down. “I hope this is o.k. T,” she said softly. “It’s broiled salmon with dill sauce, white asparagus and a salad with baby winter greens. For dessert we have a pear souffl.”
“I love everything Bette,” Tina said as she laughed softly. “But we both know you can’t cook so where did this come from?”
“I found a caterer across the street from the grocery store that I went to this morning,” Bette said as she smiled shyly.

Damn, that Porter is so romantic. Tina needs to get over the scar issue, Bette worships that woman, scars and all. We should all have that.
bette adors you tina!!!!!!!!!!!
Bette, ever the romantic. She loves Tina so very much and I wonder what will it take for Tina to realize just how much she loves her. I know Tina has been hurt but she really needs to get over her insecurities and let Bette love her and the baby, and try to make amends. It will take a long time but she must let it happen. Thanks for a very lovely post.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh romance it is so nice to read about it lets hope we get a taste in S3
really romantic…thank you, i’m glad that bette didn’t get mad from what tina said before…post soon
OK, Alica and Shane have remarkable powers of recuperation and they can get as trashed as they want to as far as I’m concerned. I’d be in the hospital after that, but that’s a different story. Maybe it has something to do with the power of friendship, an offshoot of the power of love, and we all know what that can do.
Thank you for allowing Bette another chance with the love of her life. IC has no clue how to handle their love. Maybe you can turn down the sound and put your own words into the show. At least you get to see them. (I do not have Showtime so I have to rely on you guys)
Bette is very romantic. She’s trying to woo Tina again and she knows this is her second and last chance at getting Tina back. Tina has to find it in her heart to let Bette back in and forgive her. Tina also has to tell Bette about her anger and her insecurities, because Tina’s assumptions of how Bette is is totally unfair to Bette. Please continue.
i am so happy this morning as i can read your chapter on my way to work. you rock my day! Tibette are so much in love, there shouldn’t be anything or anyone able to tear them apart again.
Bette is so sweet Hope that Tina knows howmuch Bette loves her. thanks.
