“Cinnamon rolls as you requested, m’lady.” Bette strode in with a tray, sounding a lot more chipper. The pure thought of making her woman something nice had the brunette smiling, very unlike her usual stoic self.
As if in slow motion, Tina turned around, the gun in her hand, ready to fire.
Bette paused in her track. The black of the muzzle staring at her, threatening to swallow her whole. “What—are you doing…?”
Tina completely lost control of her hand. All she could do was watching as her arm got pulled up by an unknown force, her hand shaking, her line of sight aimed, and her finger tightened. One finger, it was all it took.
When the bullet went right through her heart, there was a curious smile in the big brown eyes, reflecting the most peaceful pools. So peaceful as if she had seen it coming.
Why?
Why not?
The gun didn’t make a sound louder than the complete shattering of her heart. It was followed by a deafening silence till a shriek burst out from her chest. “Bette!” The pistol fell from her palm and through thin air, her body followed the same trajectory, collapsing to her knees—without a sense of pain in that physical contact—and crawled over to the woman lying still on the floor.
The dark red liquid was oozing and stirring and turning and exploding everywhere.
What had she done!?
“Bette!? Bette!!!” She tried to scream, but her voice didn’t come to her. She tasted blood in her throat, raw and coppery.
“Tina baby? T, wake up, wake up baby.”
The sound was distant at first, soon it was accompanied by the warmth of a hand.
“Tina… honey what is it?” Bette’s soft voice eventually penetrated the glass layer that muffled it at first. The brunette lifted her hand to brush the tears away from Tina’s pale cheeks.
In the concerned, yet still the most beautiful honey brown eyes, Tina saw her own sobbing reflection. Though disoriented, she vividly remembered the terror of her subconscious. “Bette—”
“It’s ok now, baby. You were having a nightmare. Shhh… it’s ok.” The brunette wrapped her arms around the lithe body and generously provided herself as a blanket.
“Bette… I, I think I shot you… you were dead and it’s my fault…” Gripping the muscular arm that hooked around her waist, Tina blurted out the content of her nightmare. She desperately wanted to be close to Bette.
“Shhh… it’s ok Tina. It’s not your fault.” The brunette pulled away just to look into the teary eyes. Through the sincerity of her own eyes, she gazed long and deep at the blonde, making sure that Tina knew she meant it. Then her lips parted, carrying out the most bizarre sentence. “I’m dead, but it’s not your fault.”
It made no sense sense to Tina, who stared at Bette with wide eyes, until the light started to blur her sight.
“Go back to sleep, Tina.” The woman started to pull away inch by inch, slowly, gingerly, as if she didn’t want to disturb her weakening lover.
“Go back to sleep. It’s ok…”
She tried to stop Bette from leaving her side. Yet no matter how hard she tried, the warmth dissipated, and an intense sense of falling jerked her awake.
Tina jolted up from bed, and the comforter soon lost its comforting texture. It took her a while to fully comprehend her surroundings. With one hand on her face, she discovered the dried tear lines and sweat. A depressed smile found its way to her lips as she surrendered to the horridness of reality. Clock struck to four in the morning, and wind was howling outside. It was late autumn, but she barely remembered the passing of summer.
“I’m dead, but it’s not your fault.”
If only it were true.

Ok I’m getting a hang of this new design. Come and send me friend requests, write on my wall, or leave messages in my box or something!
I think someone may have noticed that I also pulled down all The Lucky One chapters. That’s because I am doing a major revision. There are a lot of changes. It’s half way through already but I don’t know if you want me to post or wait till it’s all done.
I would love your thoughts, if not on the whole story, but on some small things you like or dislike. Any form of comment will be appreciated.
Peace,
Robyn

Ok.. Slightly confused.. I don’t remember when they realized they knew each other from high school… Did I miss something, although I am only on page 5 so maybe it will be explained as I read further..
You might have skipped chapter 2 “Why change your name”? It’s when Bette confronted Tina about her appearance at the mansion. They are pretty sure about each other the entire time.
Welcome back! And you came back with incredible force. But i am a little confused, was Tina really having a nightmare where she shot Bette dead or did she it really and is now in some kind of shock where the reality is escaping her?
Would love to read the chapters you already have from The Lucky One.
