Make You Mine
"Rumor has it," a voice cut into Tina’s deep introspection, as Helena emerged from behind the fence, "that women who show up in their ex’s house at the very early hours of morning can be deemed…"
"Annoying?" Tina guessed.
"I was going to use the word unstable, but…" Helena grinned at her friend.
"What brings you here?"
"I was out for a walk…"
"You walk?" Tina teased, checking the baby monitor beside her, smiling at the sound of Angelica’s sleep-induced sounds.
"I was looking for a snack–"
"At seven in the morning?" Tina inquired.
Helena shot her a look. "You’re infuriating."
Tina laughed. "I try."
"I was hoping to find you, strangely enough," Helena finally admitted.
"And you came here, instead of my own home?"
"You weren’t at your home," Helena pointed out.
"True." Tina conceded. "What if I weren’t here?"
"That is quite a scary prospect." Helena laughed, approaching Tina. "Where’s Kate?"
"Gone." Tina smiled wryly. "She did the right thing."
Helena glanced at her. "Because you shouldn’t sleep with someone you work with?"
"Because everyone and everything still reminds me of Bette." Tina said softly.
"You told her to go." Helena reminded, picking up the newspaper at Tina’s feet as she joined the blonde on the front steps of Bette’s house. Helena glanced behind her, at the house. "You spent the night?"
"Yeah."
"How come?"
Tina shrugged. "Any piece of her."
Helena nodded. "I can understand that."
They fell silent, Helena waiting for Tina to tell her what was going on, while Tina remained wrapped up in the thoughts that had been keeping her up lately, magnified by the fact that after finally opening up to Bette, just filtering out some details, Bette still chose to go to New York, still chose to show another woman a grand gesture of her love.
Tina glanced at her ex, finally breaking the silence. "Does it ever stop hurting?"
"How do you want me to answer that?"
"Lie to me."
"Of course it does. You’ll meet someone else and you forget Bette is your soulmate and you’ll live happily ever after with other people." Helena said flatly, saying what she knew would be fairly impossible for Bette, or Tina.

And I was saying that the my fave authors were in a hiatus!! Three posts from you!! Great as usual!!
Perfect! Thank you.
We can always trust on you to put things right in Tibbete Land. As always a pleasure to read your histories, all of them =D. a humble reader and fan.
Aaaahh, nicely done. But, I’ll gladly take more if you’re so inclined!
yes, that’s how it should have been…btw, i was reading another story of yours (stand off between bette and shannen) and suddenly it dissapeared right before my eyes? hmm, what happened? anyway, this was great, i love everything you write and can’t wait for another tibette story from you
and they live happily ever after, have lots of great sex!!! wooohooo what an awesome fic…..i love it……
I truly love your writing. When I grow up I want to be just like you.
I bow to you. Amazing as always….please keep writing!
Great tale, Tiff–as usual, you have the characters pegged better (I dare say) than the writers of TLW themselves. I so hope you continue this, as my Tibetter heart needs some hope in order to stomach S5, if it doesn’t turn out with Bette and Tina together. Thanks for writing and sharing your words with us, your humble followers.
Ah, come on, you can’t end it here, you are missing the best part! Another post, please?
that was awesome!!
Yeah!!! Now that’s what I’m talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, the final was not a pleasant one for our Tibette crew. I don’t trust ic with anything important so obviously I don’t trust her with B&T. I will put my trust in you though to make it all better for me.
Exactly how it should have been.
doing the happy dance….
I think I squealed a little when I saw you’d posted! Thanks for writing this…I loved it.
As it should be
Three posts in a row! You spoilt us, Tiff :) I was re-reading Chandelier and found certain similarities between your stories and s4. I really don’t wanna wait 9 months to see what will happen in s5. Please write Tibette.
Phew!! And let the hard work begin!
oh wow, that was so worth waiting for from you…exceptional as always…
yes, tiff…youre spoiling us but we love it sooo keep it comin lady.and i agree with starburst if it counts..
Took my undercaffeinated brain a second to catch the switch from Helena to Bette…Bette’s place is a busy place in the early morning. Even so, it’s a nice start at getting the women who should be together back together.
Thanks so much for this. I just feel sorry that you put The End while I would have loved a very nice love scene. But hey thanks anyway.
I’m going to echo all previous sentiments, thanks Tiff for the stories and, yes, you should write S5. I know it would be miles better than the disjunctive tale the writers will hand us. Looking forward to any new story ideas you have so please post soon!
Wow Tiff…ya know first I have to say I love your Helena in your stories. Her and Tina have an amazing connection and I love that she just says what she wants to and they understand each other. Now, onto Bette and Tina. Simply excellent! I hope you continue this because we need all the “hopeful” stories of Bette and Tina we can get eh? Thanks again for spoiling us! Made my morning to wake up and read this instead of work!
Ahhh….now that’s what I’m talking about! Have been reading your past stories again..you still write the best dialogues. I really like your Helena. Nice mentionn of uh huh her! Heh!Thanks TD, and PPS!
Thanks Tiff for the post. Excellent as usual. PPS
Yes Yes AS it should have been Awesome
Yay! I love Bette and Tina stories from you!
Thank you, that was the perfect antidote to an infuriating finale. Why TV’s Tina thinks self-flagellation and TV’s Bette thinks self-denigration are less painful than the potential hurt they might cause each other, I cannot fathom.
Yea!! It’s true. It can happen. It should happen.
Perfect!!! More please!
As always, you got me from your first sentence–love the way you put the words together. Thanks for this–it is as it should be.
very nice and thanks for this.
its as it should be. i second that. *sigh* they need to be together. thanks for this.
And it goes without saying that Bette’s made the right choice. (Of course, that’s the non-biased position…) Excellent, tiff. Thanks for the post.
Definitely as it should be.
“Get me re-write!” Oh, never mind, Tiff is here and she did it all perfectly. Thanks!
WOW!!! Three post in one day. Tiff your are Great!!! Thanks
That was awesome and love it, thanks!
That was fantastic Tiff – i’ve not been online & had time to read for moths & when I do this is the first story I read – i’m blown away – that was just what i needed! You do B & T so well! I’d missed their snappy dialogue!
