Tina buried her face even deeper in the pillow. Bette took the robe back off and dropped it to the floor. She slid into the bed behind Tina and pushed her body so that there was not an open space between the two women. “Tina when I betrayed you it was because I was lost scared. Scared that I couldn’t be who or what you needed me to be, that you would see through my façade and realize how weak I really had become.” Bette sighed and continued, “I ran from everything because it was easier than having to accept that I wasn’t the person you needed me to be. I wanted no I needed to be your strength but I ended up being your greatest disappointment.”
Tina snuggled back into Bette. “I never wanted you to have to shoulder all the pain we were supposed to share it.”
“T don’t you understand? I made the mistake of cheating I did it. You didn’t do anything to cause me to betray you. I was simply weak and allowed myself to drift further and further away from our problems. We were both hurting but you’re right, we never hurt together.”
“Do you really have any idea what the affair did to me Bette? It nearly killed me first I lost our baby and then I lost you.” Tina was sobbing quietly now.
“You never lost me Tina NEVER. I lost myself. The irony in all this was that I was lost for all those years before I met you. When I found you you guided me with your love. I always knew that ultimately the light that showed me how to live, how to love came from you Tina.”
Tina turned to face Bette and the two lay silently in each others arms. Their lips met softly over and over again. There was always passion between the two women but these kisses were born of something just as important they were born of faith.
“Do you know that there was not one day that went by that I didn’t think about you about us? You were the last thought that I had every night and my first thought in the morning.” Bette looked deeply into her eyes, “I promise you with all that I am that my heart, my body and my soul belong only to you. You could come back home with me Tina. I would love nothing more than to welcome my family home.”
“Bette I can’t just leave. I have a contract here with the studio,” Tina whispered.
“Would you come with me if you could?” Bette asked.
Tina sighed against Bette’s chest, “I we need to slow down baby. I want us to do everything right. It would be too easy to just be us again. We have to know why we screwed up before. I can’t lose you again.”
Bette smiled gently and looked down at the beautiful woman she held in her arms and once more leaned down to kiss her. Bette knew that Tina’s kisses were like her smiles; there were a million different ones and a million different reasons for each one of them.
Tina kissed Bette and thought, “Why does this have to feel so good, so right?” Her mind knew that taking things slowly was the logical thing to do but every time Bette touched her her heart go involved. There was nothing that she wanted anymore than to return home with Bette to Bette but she knew that she had to stick to her resolve and not look into those magnificent brown eyes. One look into them and she would lose every ounce of control she possessed.
“I totally agree that we need to go slowly,” Bette whispered, “yet holding you in my arms it feels like you never left. God I was such a fool Tina. How could I have forgotten how this feels, how you feel? We fit together like the last two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle nothing else belongs there and that’s just the way it is meant to be.”
“I love you Bette. I love you so very much.” Tina shifted in her arms once again and draped her leg across Bette.

I have enjoyed this story from day one. I hope that you continue to write as I will continue to read. Despite the angst on the show, I hope that it does not influence you except to stay motivated in the direction that you want to take this story. The stories on this site are great, most of the time I read them as not being apart of the show but as the author’s creation. I guess what I am trying to say is that whether or not B&T survive, you can always write that they will be together. It’s your story. Looking forwaard to the next chapter.
I am so glad that these two lovely ladies are talking. Congradulation on your reward. Your story brings me joy and helps me to make it throught the day.
