“Vincent.” A man acknowledged her, and glanced to Tina. Soon he tore his gaze away for the brunette was squinting at him.
Drawing minimal attention to themselves, Bette snatched some toast, ham and fruit from the kitchen and led their way back.
The sight of a bunch of drug dealers downstairs was definitely an unpleasant interruption to their elevated mood. It pained the brunette so much to think about how she failed yet again to protect the woman she loved most from things so ugly—blood, death, and drugs. They had breakfast in relative silence and a new found speechlessness was transparent in the gap of air between them. Bette was, very unlike herself, lost and hesitant at the strange atmosphere, while Tina disliked the distance from her lover. Sitting down in the sofa, Bette bit her lower lip as she watched the blonde stalk over, pick up her poem booklet, and rest her head in her lap. Her fingers immediately weaved in the blonde tresses.
“Read me something, won’t you.”
“What…do you wanna hear?” Asking, she already subconsciously arrived at the most worn-out page.
“I don’t know. Your favorite.” Tina utterly enjoyed and relaxed under the slow massaging on her scalp.
“Do you remember the poem we read in sophomore year?” Bette let out a coarse chuckle, a weird feeling as she contemplated that her worst crush from teenage years was right here, all snuggled up in her lap. “Si me ves o no.”
The blonde closed her eyes and smiled. She was right, it was Bette’s favorite.
As the melodious Spanish words rolled off the brunette woman’s tongue, the poem came alive. Tina could hear, without holding still breaths, the beating heart of the most loyal lover; feel, without reaching out hands, her dedication through the warmth of her soft skin; and see, without opening eyes, the unconditioned, raw, and blatant yet elegantly expressed emotions in her honey brown eyes. This person, this loyal, dedicated, elegant lover, became the only thing that meant everything in the universe, and the rest of the world faded into background noise.
She looked up at the expressive chocolate orbs, and easily identified the sweetest sadness. It was not easy, painful even, to imagine the times when Bette read it to herself. After a long but comfortable, appropriate silence, she found the larger hand and laced their fingers together. “Bette, I’m sorry.”

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.
