My Realization
“I don’t think for a minute that you don’t deserve to be in a committed relationship or that you deserve to be cheated on…”
“Jodi’s not cheating on me. We aren’t exclusive.”
“But, Bette,” Tina began. She couldn’t complete her thought through the haze of the martinis that now seemed to be an obstacle to a clear-headed statement.
Bette waited for her ex to continue. “But what, Tina?”
The blonde was still looking at the brunette, with a longing that was unrequited at that moment. “It obviously bothers you.”
She’s right. It bothers me. But I don’t want it to. Rather than express her true feelings, Bette only shrugged. “She hasn’t promised me anything, I don’t have a right to be bothered by it right now.”
“What about Angie?” Tina asked. “Haven’t you thought about how this will affect our daughter? She’s obviously taken to Jodi. Doesn’t she have a right to be bothered by it?”
“I doubt our daughter knows the complexities of monogamy at only 2 and a half, T.” Bette said, trying to lighten the conversation a little. “It took quite a while before I was comfortable with Jodi coming around while I had Angie with me. Don’t think that I haven’t considered her, or that I have a revolving door of women that she’s witness to.”
“I know that’s not the case, Bette.”
“Good.”
Bette continued driving west towards Tina’s place. Again, only the sound of the stereo was audible between the two former lovers. Tina couldn’t help but think about whether Bette did have a revolving door of women when Angie wasn’t around. The thought of Bette with other women still stung, and even in her state of intoxication, Tina knew that she wasn’t over the beautiful woman in the driver seat.
“I wanted to thank you again for coming to my rescue from Jenny and her agents. I really appreciate your confidence in my work.”
This made Bette smile. “Of course, Tina. I know how dedicated you are, and I think it would be Jenny’s loss if she were to go with any other studio.” Bette’s declaration made Tina beam with pride and glow with love.
“That means a lot coming from you. I know how much you hate the business.”

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.
I definitely hope you’ll be posting again sometime… sometime *soon*. ;) thanks, mell!
