With a small smile, Tina opened her eyes and turned her head so that it was still against the headrest while she looked at Bette.
“I’m fine. Really, I’m not that drunk. And don’t worry, I won’t get sick in your car.” She chuckled, trying to loosen her ex up a little.
The chuckle was contagious as Bette laughed shyly. “Just checking. Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply that you were a lightweight.”
“Yes you did.” Tina answered with a knowing smile. “You’ve always thought that I was a lightweight, remember?” She couldn’t take her eyes off the driver as she once again brought up their past. “You enjoyed it because I used to throw myself at you.” Her voice trailed off when she saw Bette’s smile fade. Tina turned to face out the front window again to ease Bette’s discomfort.
She wanted to tell Bette how sorry she was for continuing to conjure up memories of the past, but she wasn’t sorry. She needed Bette to remember them too. It was a passive aggressive method, that, ironically, was a very familiar dance that Tina had perfected throughout the latter part of their relationship.
Why can’t I just tell her what I’m feeling? Tina scolded herself, knowing that this form of communication was a pattern that she didn’t want to fall victim too anymore.
Bette reached for the volume knob on her car stereo and turned it up. Her passenger smiled when she immediately recognized the CD. Frou Frou’s “Details” was always one of Bette’s favorite albums. Tina’s thoughts immediately went to all the times they had made love to this album. She closed her eyes as the soothing melody of “Let Go” enraptured her.
With a deep sigh, Bette shook herself out of her own reverie about Kit and the events that had transpired. She glanced at Tina, whose head was tilted back onto the headrest, her eyes closed; a trace of a smile playing on her lips.
Her eyes found the road again while her throat finally found her voice. “Crazy night, wasn’t it?”
The hazel eyes revealed themselves from behind heavy lids as Tina only nodded her head. It’s now or never, she thought. “You never said where Jodi was tonight.”

Sad but Tina made her bed so unless Bette is willing to kick Jodi to the curb, Tina must lie in it. Tina is a coward. Life is too short not to tell the important people in your life that you love them. Epilogue??
That hurt me as well as Tina and Bette. All Tina has to do is tell Bette she still loves her and wants her back, and that she made a huge mistake and told a lie, she is not in love with Henry and does not want him any longer. They have missed so many opportunities to talk with each other and admit their love for each other. Please say you will give us an epilogue to this story. Thanks for posting.
Yes please give me a happy Tibette sequel.Great story thank you.
